Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of intelligent factory master control operation training technology, specifically to an intelligent cockpit master control console. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional chemical plants typically employ multiple people working at various dispersed workstations for division of labor and overall plant control. These separate workstation systems generally include functional workstations such as DCS (Distributed Control System) workstations, SIS (Safety Instrumented System) workstations, APC (Advanced Control System) workstations, production management workstations, and safety management workstations. However, with the rapid development of intelligent manufacturing technology in the chemical industry, the automation, integration, and intelligence of equipment are increasing. To help chemical companies reduce manpower and increase efficiency, the traditional division of labor is no longer suitable for the current intelligent development requirements of equipment. Many traditionally separate workstations for DCS (Distributed Control System) monitoring, SIS (Safety Instrumented System) monitoring, APC (Advanced Control System) monitoring, PID control (proportional-integral-derivative control), alarm management, equipment management, operating condition management, and operating parameter management are gradually being highly integrated into the central control room through intelligent systems.

[0003] Traditional human-machine interface (HMI) systems in chemical control rooms typically consist of multiple workstations arranged in a row of monitoring consoles, computer workstations, and monitoring panels. They only offer basic computer equipment placement, and workstation expansion relies solely on simple horizontal expansion. They lack multi-disciplinary, multi-system, cross-screen collaborative monitoring and scheduling capabilities. Essentially, they merely centralize workstations and equipment from multiple scattered workstations into a single central control workstation; they only centralize equipment setup without achieving substantial system integration. They lack highly integrated information, efficient collaboration, and integrated industrial software HMI functionality. Therefore, when implementing central control management, it is necessary to simultaneously consider… A multi-station control room setup consisting of a monitoring console, computer workstation, and monitoring panel presents significant challenges due to its large footprint and extensive operational range. Using a single operator for control results in low efficiency and a high risk of errors. Furthermore, traditional chemical control room workstation human-machine interface systems typically only support one posture (seated). Given the large operational range, operators must frequently change postures to achieve this, increasing physical strain. Using multiple operators negates or diminishes the benefits of reducing manpower and increasing efficiency. Similarly, training personnel for these traditional chemical control room operations often utilizes traditional simulation plant training platforms, which suffer from the same drawbacks.

[0004] Based on this, there is an urgent need to design an intelligent cockpit control console to redefine the interactive system for the control positions in intelligent factories of the process industry. At the same time, the training of personnel for the control positions in the central control room also requires a corresponding new generation of intelligent cockpit control consoles as training and interactive carriers for chemical intelligent production simulation platforms, so as to achieve the effects of more centralized setup, less space occupation, smaller operating range, simpler and more efficient operation, lower error rate, and minimal number of operators. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an intelligent cockpit control console that features multi-professional and multi-system cross-screen collaborative monitoring and scheduling functions, as well as highly integrated information, efficient collaboration, integrated industrial software, and multi-posture adaptability human-computer interaction functions. This aims to achieve more centralized settings, less space occupation, a smaller operating range, simpler and more efficient operation, lower error rate, and a minimum number of operators.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides an intelligent cockpit control panel, including a central control unit. The central control unit contains a central control unit housing. An operating panel is located on the upper part of the central control unit. The central control unit and the operating panel are connected via a lifting device. A display screen back adjustment panel is located on the upper surface of the operating panel. The front surface of the display screen back adjustment panel is provided with a display screen bracket arranged vertically and at least one adjustment structure arranged horizontally, for realizing the installation of multiple display screens in the vertical and horizontal directions, and adjusting the horizontal installation position of the display screens. An information recognition device and a control structure are also provided on the operating panel. The lifting device, the display screen, the information recognition device, and the control structure are all electrically connected to the central control unit housing.

[0007] Furthermore, the adjustment structure adopts a telescopic mechanism or a slide rail;

[0008] When the adjustment structure employs the telescopic mechanism and the telescopic mechanism is electrically driven, the telescopic mechanism is electrically connected to the central control console chassis;

[0009] When the adjustment structure uses a slide rail, a slider that matches the slide rail is provided on the rear face of the display screen.

[0010] Furthermore, the information recognition device includes an identity recognition device and a voice interaction device, both of which are electrically connected to the central control console chassis.

[0011] Furthermore, the identity recognition device includes a fingerprint recognition device, a facial recognition device, and a document recognition device, all of which are electrically connected to the central control console chassis.

[0012] Furthermore, the control structure includes a power button and a switching button, both of which are electrically connected to the central control console chassis.

[0013] Furthermore, the control structure also includes a lifting adjustment key, which is electrically connected to the central control console chassis.

[0014] Furthermore, the control structure also includes a telescopic adjustment key, and both the telescopic adjustment key and the adjustment structure are electrically connected to the central control console chassis.

[0015] Furthermore, the front end of the display screen back panel is provided with a first light effect structure, which is electrically connected to the central control panel chassis.

[0016] Furthermore, at least one side of the central control panel is provided with a second light effect structure, which is electrically connected to the central control panel chassis.

[0017] Furthermore, a buzzer structure is also provided on the central control panel, and the buzzer structure is electrically connected to the central control panel chassis.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0019] 1. This utility model constructs a central control console that integrates multiple displays and information recognition devices, enabling a single central control console to have multi-professional and multi-system cross-screen collaborative monitoring and scheduling functions, as well as highly integrated information, efficient collaboration, and integrated industrial software human-computer interaction functions, which are convenient for single-person operation. By setting up lifting devices and adjustment structures, multiple displays can be adjusted in both horizontal and vertical directions, realizing multi-posture adaptation for operators. This achieves the effects of more centralized settings, less space occupation, smaller operating range, simpler and more efficient operation, lower error rate, and minimal number of operators.

[0020] 2. This utility model can be flexibly deployed across multiple screens, with alarm linkage between the sound, light, electricity, and human-machine interaction system. Personnel identity can be quickly identified, and the workstation human-machine interaction also has voice interaction functions. The equipment supports integrated management and control, meeting the needs of cultivating comprehensive talents in intelligent chemical production. It enables one person in the overall control position of an intelligent factory to perform the job responsibilities of multiple people in a traditional factory. It can be used as a simulation platform for intelligent chemical production, serving as an interactive training environment for talents in intelligent chemical control positions. Compared with traditional simulation factory training platforms, it has a higher degree of integration, occupies less space, and can replace traditional workstation operating consoles, ensuring that the simulation platform is consistent with the technological progress and production method changes in the chemical industry.

[0021] 3. This utility model is designed based on the highly intelligent and integrated human-machine interaction concept of the next-generation smart factory. It is suitable for simulation training of operators and master control positions in the central control room of a smart factory, especially for training in management and overall collaboration capabilities based on the visual data of the cockpit. Compared with traditional control panels, the functional design has a high degree of integration, taking into account identity recognition, voice interaction, and lighting effect linkage; the multi-screen deployment structure design is more flexible and versatile, with various deployment schemes such as desktop deployment, back panel bracket deployment, and large and small screen deployment, which better meets the current needs of flexible deployment of modular, collaborative, and scalable industrial software components; the appearance design is more technologically advanced than traditional control panels, providing a high-quality intelligent human-machine interaction experience.

[0022] 4. Compared with existing central control room consoles, this utility model offers more centralized and efficient workstation interaction functions, while consuming less computer resources and physical space. Existing central control room consoles only offer conventional computer equipment layout functions, and workstation expansion relies solely on simple horizontal expansion, which is inconsistent with the current trend of intelligent factory system development. They lack multi-professional and multi-system cross-screen collaborative monitoring and scheduling capabilities. This utility model's central control console effectively solves this problem. Existing central control room consoles do not support integrated large-screen deployment structures and require independent large-screen brackets, while this utility model integrates them seamlessly into the central control console. Furthermore, existing central control room consoles do not support lifting functions; this utility model's central control console design is more in line with modern human-computer interaction development concepts.
