Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of remote monitoring and control technology, and in particular to a remote monitoring and control device for EIGA equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Electrode induction melting gas atomization is an advanced powder preparation technology for producing ultra-clean, inclusion-free metal powders. It is the core method for large-scale preparation of ultra-clean metal powders for additive manufacturing. The supporting remote monitoring and control device is a core component of the EIGA equipment. Its main function is to collect multi-dimensional process parameters and equipment operating status data in real time and accurately, providing key data support for real-time control of the EIGA process and safe operation and maintenance of the equipment.
[0003] The monitoring probe of the remote monitoring and control device of the EIGA equipment lacks an efficient dustproof and self-cleaning structure. Metal dust generated during the atomization process can easily enter the interior through the probe gap or adhere to the monitoring element and probe surface, which seriously reduces the accuracy of parameter acquisition. In addition, manual disassembly and cleaning of dust are required, which not only results in high maintenance costs but also frequent production interruptions, affecting powder production efficiency.
[0004] A search revealed Chinese Patent Publication No. CN223707880U, which discloses a remote monitoring type pump station control device, including a monitor, a flow meter, a PLC data processor, and a pump station controller. The data output terminals of the monitor and the flow meter are respectively connected to the data input terminal of the PLC data processor. The PLC data processor is electrically connected to the pump station controller, and the pump station controller is electrically connected to a remote control terminal. This utility model discloses a remote monitoring pump station control device. It collects image information of the pump station's sluice gate area via a monitor, and collects instantaneous and cumulative flow information from the sluice gate via a flow meter. A PLC data processor processes the collected image and flow information before sending it to the pump station controller, which then sends it to a remote monitoring terminal. The remote control terminal enables real-time remote monitoring and control of the pump station, facilitating monitoring and operation and improving the stability and timeliness of production water supply. However, this utility model patent has significant drawbacks. It uses a fully networked real-time data transmission method without a local hierarchical data processing architecture. It relies solely on the PLC data processor for simple information relay processing, lacking independent local data caching and computing capabilities. Network failures directly result in the loss of monitoring and control functions, leading to extremely poor system fault tolerance. Utility Model Content

[0015] 2.

The vents on the surface of the extension cylinder 221 of the self-cleaning component 22 provide a channel for monitoring the gas flow inside the furnace. The dust baffle 228 inside the vent can block dust while allowing air to pass through. The spiral ribs 223 on the outer surface of the extension cylinder 221 provide a structural basis for its movement.
[0020] Please see the appendix Figure 3 To be continued Figure 7The main data processing mechanism 1 includes a data integration module 11. A data transmission line 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the data integration module 11. A reinforcement member 13 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the data transmission line 12. The frame component 21 includes a mounting base frame 211. A drive push rod 212 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting base frame 211. The end of the mounting base frame 211 is fixed to the end of the data transmission line 12. A shrink shell 213 is fixedly connected to the end of the mounting base frame 211 away from the data transmission line 12. A spiral groove 214 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the shrink shell 213. A heat insulation cover 215 is fixedly connected to the end of the drive push rod 212. A pressure monitoring element 222 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the extension cylinder 221. The outer surface of the partition 224 is fixed. A sub-processing module 225 is connected. A gas monitoring element 226 is fixedly connected to the side of the partition 224 away from the sub-processing module 225. A patch thermocouple element 227 is fixedly connected to the side of the partition 224 close to the gas monitoring element 226. The outer surface edge of the dust baffle 228 coincides with the edge of the air hole. The outer surface of the heat insulation cover 215 slides against the inner wall of the mounting base frame 211. The outer surface of the sub-processing module 225 is fixed against the inner wall of the spiral groove 214. The outer surface of the spiral ridge 223 slides against the inner wall of the shrink shell 213. Multiple data transmission lines 12 are provided, and probe mechanisms 2 are installed at the ends of multiple data transmission lines 12. The outer surface of the partition 224 is fixed against the outer surface of the heat insulation cover 215. Specifically, the main data processing unit (1) is connected to the control terminal. The main data processing unit (1) receives the signal processed by the sub-processing module (225). The operator controls the actuator in the EIGA equipment through the control terminal. When the data in the equipment is abnormal, the data integration module (11) directly controls the actuator to modify the operating status of the equipment. The operator modifies and adjusts the process parameters of the equipment through the control terminal. The data integration module (11) transmits the modified parameters to the actuator to update the action of the actuator. The drive push rod 212 fixed to the mounting base frame 211 of the frame component 21 can drive the heat insulation cover cylinder 215 along its... The inner wall slides, the heat insulation cover 215 is fixedly connected to the partition 224 and the sub-processing module 225 is fixedly connected to the spiral groove 214, so that the partition 224 is kept fixed. The outer extension cylinder 221 slides with the spiral groove 214 on the inner wall of the shrink shell 213 through the spiral rib 223. It moves axially and rotates circumferentially with the action of the drive push rod 212. The air pressure monitoring element 222 on the inner wall of the outer extension cylinder 221, the gas monitoring element 226 on the partition 224 and the patch thermocouple element 227 collect air pressure, gas and temperature data respectively and transmit them to the sub-processing module 225. The data is transmitted back to the data integration module 11 through the data transmission line 12. The dust baffle 228 coincides with the edge of the air hole to realize ventilation and dust blocking.
[0021] Working principle: The drive push rod 212 pulls the extended cylinder 221 to move axially. The cooperation between the spiral rib 223 and the spiral groove 214 converts the axial movement of the extended cylinder 221 into its own circumferential rotation, while the baffle plate 224 remains fixed and does not rotate. This effectively protects the connecting wires of the pressure monitoring element 222, the gas monitoring element 226, and the patch thermocouple element 227, preventing the wires from being entangled or pulled and damaged due to the rotation of the extended cylinder 221. The dust baffle plate 228 ensures the flow of gas in the furnace for monitoring while blocking dust from entering. When the extended cylinder 221 retracts under the drive push rod 212, the inner wall of the retracted shell 213 can scrape off the floating dust attached to its surface, achieving self-cleaning. The environmental monitoring module consists of three components: 222, 226, and 227. These components collect real-time data on gas pressure, gas content, and temperature within the furnace and transmit them to the sub-processing module 225 for primary local processing. The equipment is normally disconnected from the network, and the data integration module 11 is also disconnected from the EIGA control terminal. Each processing module 225 transmits the processed monitoring data back to the data integration module 11 for secondary processing. When an error occurs in the monitoring data, the data integration module 11 packages the erroneous parameters transmitted from the sub-processing module 225 along with all monitoring parameters from the past half hour and sends them to the EIGA control terminal via network connection. The control terminal then determines the appropriate equipment action.
