Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The embodiments of the present application relate to the field of power equipment detection, and in particular to a device and method for nondestructive testing of power equipment using acoustic and optical imaging. Background Art
[0002] When operating, electrical equipment emits sounds and vibrations, which contain a wealth of information about its status. These sounds and vibrations, like a human fingerprint, are identifying characteristics of the equipment's operating status. When parts or components, due to wear and aging, cause faults such as partial discharge or abnormal noise, the equipment's operating status changes, causing the normal operating sounds and vibrations to include the sound of the fault. The characteristics of the soundprint signal emitted by the equipment will also change accordingly.
[0003] The advantage of extracting characteristic quantities from the voiceprint signals generated by power equipment to determine the operating status of the equipment and detect faults is that it can realize uninterrupted online monitoring and non-contact detection of power equipment. In addition, during the detection process, since the arrangement of the device for collecting voiceprints is relatively flexible, no electromagnetic signals are generated when collecting signals, which will not interfere with the normal operation of the equipment.
[0004] However, due to the complex internal structure of power equipment, especially large and complex equipment, the noise generation mechanism is diverse, and the power equipment system is a fully enclosed structure; since sound needs to penetrate multiple media, the transmission pattern of sound from the internal structure to the outside is irregular; coupled with the interference of equipment and environmental noise; it makes it difficult for the voiceprint signals collected by traditional detection methods to match one-to-one with power equipment faults, and the robustness and false alarm rate of the detection system cannot meet the requirements of unmanned intelligent monitoring of power equipment.

[0055] It should be noted that the above-mentioned acoustic optical imaging non-destructive testing device for power equipment diagnosis can be implemented in many forms. The technical solution formed by fine-tuning the device structure proposed in this application or replacing some components is also within the scope of protection of this application.
[0056] In some embodiments, see Figure 3 The voiceprint probe 1 is provided with a mounting portion for magnetically connecting to the electrical equipment to be tested.
[0057] In this application, the voiceprint probe 1 is a sound source location instrument and a device equipped with passive voice technology. The voiceprint probe integrates an FPGA processor and advanced sound imaging algorithms. In addition to voice enhancement, it can also provide real-time noise imaging, generate audio and video, visualize sound, and locate noise sources.
[0058] In some embodiments, the voiceprint probe 1 can be installed in a variety of ways. It can be mounted on inspection robots or drones, or it can be fixed around critical facilities, enabling 24-hour uninterrupted voiceprint collection. The voiceprint probe 1 can also analyze the acoustic signals of the facility being tested, evaluate the equipment's operating status based on voiceprint characteristics, conduct early detection of facility failures, and utilize artificial intelligence technology for diagnostic classification. The voiceprint probe 1 also offers ultra-high bandwidth signal frequency coverage from 20Hz to 96kHz, encompassing both audible and ultrasonic signals. This can be used to identify and locate mechanical actuation noise, partial discharge ultrasound, and gas ultrasound. The voiceprint probe 1 can also be integrated with other power plant monitoring or inspection systems. The voiceprint probe 1 also provides a flexible software interface SDK, using the HTTP protocol to perform parameter settings, status queries, and data reading on the voiceprint probe 21. Application software, web applications, mobile apps, and the like can communicate with and control the voiceprint probe 21, enabling real-time data transmission, querying, and setting the sound imaging frequency range.
[0059] Furthermore, the function to be achieved by the voiceprint probe 1 proposed in this application is: to be able to be adsorbed on electrical equipment to obtain voiceprint data without damaging the outer surface or shell of the electrical equipment. Therefore, as long as it can achieve the function of non-destructive adsorption and collection of voiceprint data, the voiceprint probe 1 can be a structure in which the magnetic mounting part is located below the voiceprint probe 1, or a structure in which the voiceprint probe 1 is set inside the magnetic mounting part. The connection method between the voiceprint probe 1 and the electrical equipment can be set to magnetic adsorption, a detachable mechanical combination, or a detachable adhesive bonding.
[0060] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 There are multiple voiceprint heads 21 densely distributed on the stethoscope array 2. Each voiceprint head 21 corresponds to a channel for receiving the voiceprint signal. The voiceprint heads 21 are arranged in a honeycomb shape on the stethoscope array 2 and spread out in a spiral shape from the center of the stethoscope array 2 to the periphery of the stethoscope array 2.
[0061] Furthermore, in the present application, the stethoscope array 2 adopts an equiaxial composite spiral stethoscope array with 124 signal channels. The signal channels are dense enough and have super strong 124 signal channels. They have symmetrical environmental noise reduction and source filtering functions. The stethoscope array 2 is in a honeycomb shape as a whole, and the signal channels are spirally spread out around the stethoscope array 2. The structural center point of the stethoscope array 2 is gradually concave at the rate of pi, so that the voiceprint signal, sound, and sound source data received by the stethoscope array 2 are more accurate. The voiceprint data can also be amplified and subjected to noise reduction and filtering processing to provide accurate voiceprint data for the sound source positioning processing device 3. A structure for fixing the voiceprint head 21 is provided in the signal channel, so that each signal channel corresponds to a voiceprint head 21, so that 124 voiceprint heads 21 can receive voiceprint signals at the same time.
[0062] Furthermore, the distribution of the stethoscope array 2 in the stethoscope array 2 is based on an equal-area multi-helical structure, which ensures that the acoustic imaging device of the stethoscope array 2 has the advantage of acoustic positioning within the analysis frequency range of 2k to 96k.
[0063] Furthermore, the stethoscope array 2 can be a 124-channel stethoscope array, a 64-channel stethoscope array, or a stethoscope array of other structures. The stethoscope array 2 can be a sound positioning and tracking device, or other devices for determining the location of a sound source, such as a voice positioning and tracking device used in an intelligent remote conference system. During a meeting, the camera will swing in any direction following the sound waves and capture the conference room image from the angle of the sound source, thereby locating the speaker in real time. Another example is a voice positioning and tracking device used in a security monitoring system. The camera can sensitively record all changes in the monitoring environment based on sound wave vibrations, and command a robot through sound guidance to assist it in completing relevant designated actions.
[0064] Furthermore, in the present application, the stethoscope array 2 composed of the voiceprint head 21 is an integrated voiceprint sound-raising device, which contains hundreds of sound-raising sensors and can achieve super-island signal-to-noise ratio. It can collect weak sounds that cannot be distinguished by the human ear and provide a reliable signal source for voiceprint fault diagnosis and recognition algorithms.
[0065] In some embodiments, the sound source positioning processing device 3 also includes: a drone mounting interface 36 and a robot mounting interface 37, the drone mounting interface 36 and the robot mounting interface 37 are arranged on the outside of the shell 31, and are connected to the control end of the display control panel 35 inside the shell 31.
[0066] Furthermore, the sound source localization processing device 3 may also include a fixed tripod, which is located below the sound source localization processing device and is detachably connected to the lower surface of the sound source localization processing device. The fixed tripod serves to support the sound source localization processing device 3 and other devices attached thereto. It may be a loading platform, a tripod, or a support vehicle with wheels, or other objects that can support the sound source localization processing device 3. The fixed tripod and the lower surface of the sound source localization processing device 3 may be detachably connected, separably bonded, fixed by bolts and screw holes, or fixed by grooves and bosses. In some cases where it is not necessary to remove the sound source localization processing device 3 from the supporting device, the fixed tripod and the lower surface of the sound source localization processing device 3 may also be non-detachably connected.
[0067] Furthermore, the acoustic-optical imaging component 33 in the sound source localization processing device 3 can be integrated hardware that converts electrical signals into visual images, or it can be software that has the function of converting electrical signals into visual images and is installed on the mainboard of the sound source localization processing device 3. It can also have some additional functions for converting electrical signals into visual images, such as image retouching and image denoising.
[0068] In some embodiments, the display end of the display control panel 35 includes: a vehicle control interface 351, and the vehicle control interface 351 is configured to control the drone matched with the drone mounting interface 36 through the drone mounting interface 36, and to control the robot matched with the robot mounting interface 37 through the robot mounting interface 37.
[0069] Furthermore, the display control panel 35 can be an integrated display panel including a processor, an integrated circuit, a storage device, etc., or a display-type device that does not include the aforementioned components and serves only as a display. When the display control panel 35 is an integrated display panel including a processor, an integrated circuit, a storage device, etc., the entire display control panel 35 is exposed to the outside of the sound source localization processing device 3, and the display control panel 35 is connected to the circuit inside the sound source localization processing device 3 via a data line. When the display control panel 35 is a display-type device that serves only as a display, the display end of the display control panel 35 is exposed to the outside of the sound source localization processing device 3, and the back-end processing system of the display control panel 35 is located inside the sound source localization processing device 3.
[0070] Furthermore, the robot mounting interface 37 and drone mounting interface 36 connected to the display control panel 35 are used to wirelessly connect a robot or drone, enabling the robot or drone to connect to the control circuitry within the sound source localization processing device 3 via the robot mounting interface 37 and drone mounting interface 36. The vehicle interface connected to the display control panel 35 can take various forms, such as a small unmanned vehicle interface or an interface for conveniently carrying equipment. The robot or drone that is compatible with the robot mounting interface 37 and drone mounting interface 36 functions as a tool carrier. The tools carried by the robot or drone can include a voiceprint probe 1, an automatic repair tool for electrical equipment, a camera, a lighting source, and other devices.
[0071] In some embodiments, the device also includes: a data transmission circuit 4 connected to the sound source positioning processing device 3, and a fault location analysis device 5 connected to the sound source positioning processing device 3 through the data transmission circuit 4; the data transmission circuit 4 is configured to transmit the visual image to the fault location analysis device 5, and the fault location analysis device 5 is configured to perform AI intelligent algorithm analysis on the received visual image to obtain AI intelligent algorithm analysis results, and combine the visual image with the photos of the power equipment collected by the fault location analysis device 5 to obtain voiceprint display photos of the power equipment.
[0072] Furthermore, the fault location analysis device 5 can be a computer equipped with AI intelligent algorithm analysis software and image integration software, or a hardware device equipped with AI intelligent algorithm analysis and image integration capabilities. It can be adapted to a photo acquisition device with a camera to capture photos of the power equipment and transmit these photos to the fault location analysis device 5. Alternatively, the fault location analysis device 5 may not be equipped with any photo acquisition device, but rather, maintenance personnel may first capture photos using a camera or other device, and then input the captured photos of the power equipment into the fault location analysis device 5 for image integration processing.
[0073] Furthermore, the data transmission circuit 4 can be a transmission line suitable for transmitting data such as voiceprint visualization images, or it can be a device capable of transmitting data such as voiceprint visualization images and connected to the sound source positioning processing device 3 and the fault positioning analysis device 5 on both sides.
[0074] In some embodiments, the fault location analysis device 5 further includes: a data integration development interface 51 , which is provided on the outer surface of the fault location analysis device 5 and is used to connect to an external integration device.
[0075] Furthermore, in this application, the data integration development interface 51 is an interface reserved for other control systems for secondary development. The data integration development interface 51 can also be a wireless transmission interface that is wirelessly connected to an external control system, or it can be a pluggable data transmission interface.
[0076] In some embodiments, the sound source localization processing device 3 also includes: a wireless transmission device 38, which is located outside the shell 31 and is connected to the control end of the display control panel 35 inside the shell 31. The wireless transmission device 38 is configured to transmit the AI intelligent algorithm analysis results transmitted by the fault location analysis device 5 to the control end of the display control panel 35 to an external wireless connection device.
[0077] Furthermore, the wireless transmission device 38 can be a transmission device with an antenna, whose antenna end is exposed to the outside of the sound source positioning processing device 3, and whose control end is located inside the positioning processing device 3 and connected to the control end of the display control panel 35; or it can be an antenna with only the function of sending signals, whose control end is integrated with the control end of the display control panel 35, and is controlled by the control end of the display control panel 35 to transmit signals.
[0078] In the second aspect, the present application provides a method for nondestructive testing of power equipment using acoustic and optical imaging. Figure 4 , the steps include:
[0079] Acquire the voiceprint signal of power equipment during operation.
[0080] Remove the interference noise signal in the voiceprint data to obtain the noise-removed voiceprint electrical signal.
[0081] The acoustic-electrical signal is converted based on the noise-removed acoustic-electrical signal to obtain the equipment defect acoustic-electrical signal.
[0082] The device defect voiceprint electrical signal is visualized and processed to obtain a voiceprint visualization image.
[0083] Preliminary AI analysis and manual analysis are performed based on the voiceprint visualization image to obtain preliminary analysis results.
[0084] If the preliminary analysis result indicates that further analysis is required, AI intelligent algorithm analysis is performed on the voiceprint visualization image to obtain the AI intelligent algorithm analysis result, and the AI intelligent algorithm analysis result is displayed to the operation and maintenance personnel, and the AI intelligent algorithm analysis result is stored in the fault result database.
[0085] In some embodiments, after performing AI intelligent algorithm analysis on the voiceprint visualization image and obtaining the AI intelligent algorithm analysis result, the method further includes:
[0086] Collect photos of the power equipment to obtain photos of the power equipment.
[0087] The power equipment photo and the voiceprint visualization image corresponding to the power equipment photo are combined and processed to form a power equipment voiceprint display photo.
[0088] Show the photos of the power equipment's voiceprint to the operation and maintenance personnel.
[0089] It should be noted that the photos of power equipment voiceprint display are shown in Figure 5 The power equipment photo and the voiceprint visualization image corresponding to the power equipment photo are combined and processed. The resulting power equipment voiceprint display photo can clearly show the fault location of the power equipment and can intuitively reflect the severity of the fault based on the size and shape of the fault sound field. Figure 5 The absence of an acoustic field at the middle bushing indicates that the bushing is fault-free, while a fault acoustic field of a different shape appears at the insulating terminal on the right, indicating that a fault has occurred at the insulating terminal. Based on the size and shape of the fault acoustic field in the photo, it can be analyzed that the insulating terminal at the top of the photo has a more serious fault, while the three insulating terminals at the bottom of the photo have relatively minor faults.
[0090] For example, in some specific embodiments, an operation and maintenance inspection personnel uses the technical solution of the present application to perform fault detection on power equipment at a kilovolt substation.
[0091] Each main substation device is equipped with a voiceprint collection device. Voiceprint probes 1 are installed on various power equipment within the substation, continuously collecting voiceprint signals from the corresponding equipment 24 hours a day. All voiceprint probes 1 are placed near the power equipment and have no electrical connection to the equipment, so they will not affect the normal operation of the equipment.
[0092] However, due to the complex environment within the station, the signal is mixed with noise from corona, fans, switch operation, bird calls, human voices, and other sources, making it difficult to extract effective voiceprint features. Sound sensor 34 uses an intelligent speech recognition algorithm to separate the voiceprint signal from transient and persistent noise, removing all interference from the voiceprint signal. It then converts the processed, de-noised voiceprint signal into an electrical signal, generating the electrical signal of the equipment defect voiceprint.
[0093] The electrical signal of the equipment defect soundprint passes through the acoustic-optical imaging component 33 to form a visual image of the soundprint.
[0094] After collecting voiceprint samples, the operation and maintenance personnel log in to the voiceprint intelligent recognition system through the display control panel 35 in the main control room. The system displays the voiceprint visualization image on the display screen. After the operation and maintenance personnel confirm that further analysis is required, the voiceprint visualization image is transmitted to the fault location analysis device 5.
[0095] The fault location analysis device 5 uses AI algorithm intelligent analysis to confirm that the analysis result is normal, and the obtained voiceprint visualization image confirms that it can reflect the fault status of the power equipment.
[0096] The fault location analysis device 5 combines the collected photos of the power equipment corresponding to the voiceprint visualization image with the voiceprint visualization image to form a voiceprint display photo of the power equipment, which is displayed on the display screen. The voiceprint visualization image and the power equipment voiceprint display photo, along with other data, are then transmitted via wireless transmission device 38 to the voiceprint data center established by the China Electric Power Research Institute Co., Ltd. for storage in the fault result database.
