It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the disclosure.

Therefore, unless otherwise stated, the features of various implementations / embodiments may be additionally combined, separated, interchanged and / or rearranged without departing from the technical concepts of this disclosure.

As used herein, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular forms “a” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms as well. Furthermore, when the terms “comprising” and / or “including” and variations thereof are used in this specification, it indicates the presence of the stated features, integrals, steps, operations, parts, components, and / or groups thereof, but does not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integrals, steps, operations, parts, components, and / or groups thereof.

[0038] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a fault diagnosis method according to an exemplary embodiment of this disclosure. The following will be combined with... Figure 1 The specific implementation method of each step of the fault diagnosis method S100 is explained in detail.

[0039] Step S102: Listen to the ambient sound of the target component.

[0040] The target element is the equipment whose operating status needs to be monitored, such as the circuit breaker in a switchgear. The circuit breaker is the main component in the switchgear for connecting and disconnecting circuits. Because its operation is very frequent, it is prone to failure; therefore, it is used as the target element in this disclosure. The target element produces corresponding operating sounds when it performs its actions. When the target element is operating normally, the frequency and intensity of its operating sounds will remain within a certain range; therefore, the operating status of the target element can be determined based on the state of its operating sounds.

[0041] Ambient sound refers to the sound signals generated by the target component and its surrounding environment during the monitoring process. It may include the sound of the target component's movement or noise signals in the environment.

[0042] If no action sounds are detected in the ambient sound, it means that the target component is not in operation. In this case, you can continue to monitor.

[0043] If motion sounds are present in the ambient sound, it means that the target element is in a working state. At this time, the recording element will be triggered to record the motion sounds and to buffer the preceding sounds of the recording element.

[0044] Therefore, recognizing motion sounds in environmental sounds is very important.

[0045] In some implementations, after listening to the ambient sound of the target element, the method further includes: identifying motion sounds in the ambient sound, specifically: determining whether the volume of the ambient sound exceeds a target volume, wherein the target volume is a volume standard for motion sounds; and in response to the ambient sound volume exceeding the target volume, generating a determination result that the ambient sound includes motion sounds of the target element.

[0046] More specifically, upon detecting ambient sound, a threshold is triggered to determine if the ambient sound contains action sounds. The threshold is essentially a volume comparator used to compare the volume of the ambient sound with a target volume. When the ambient sound volume exceeds the target volume, the recording element is triggered to record the action sounds, and operations such as buffering preceding sounds are also initiated. If the ambient sound volume is less than or equal to the target volume, the triggering mechanism is not activated, and continuous monitoring continues.

[0047] In some implementations, a preceding sound recording mechanism is also set up simultaneously during the process of monitoring the ambient sound of the target component, that is, the preceding sound is recorded in a loop using a recording element at a first preset time, wherein the preceding sound occurs before the action sound.

[0048] The recording element is used to record ambient sounds around the target element, including the target element's movement sounds and noise signals. The aforementioned monitoring mechanism is executed by the monitoring element, which does not have recording capabilities, while the recording element can record sound. However, since this disclosure continuously monitors the target element's operating status in real time, to reduce power consumption and save storage space, the recording element does not store all recorded sounds; it only triggers a buffering mechanism after the monitoring element detects movement sounds in the ambient sound.

[0049] The first preset time is the recording time for each preceding audio segment, which can be 6 seconds or set according to needs; there are no restrictions here.

[0050] Prelude audio is the sound that precedes the action sound; it can be noise or a mixture of noise and action sound. Recording prelude audio aims to prevent untimely recording triggering due to time differences between the monitoring and recording components. In short, recording prelude audio ensures complete capture of the action sound, preventing its loss. Furthermore, including ambient noise preceding the action sound facilitates accurate noise signal extraction, which is beneficial for noise reduction processing of action sounds mixed with noise.

[0051] Step S104: In response to the ambient sound including the motion sound of the target element, generate a target sound including the motion sound.

[0052] The target sound is the complete sound of the switching action, which is formed by integrating the action sound and the preceding sound. Its main purpose is to make the action sound more complete and prevent the loss of action sound due to the recording element's untimely response to the monitoring element's commands. The target sound is actually a sound segment within the ambient sound, and it is named separately in this disclosure to distinguish the processing objects of the monitoring element and the recording element.

[0053] Specifically, when the ambient sound includes the motion sound of the target element, the preceding sound recorded by the recording element for a first preset time is buffered; the recording element is triggered to record the motion sound for a second preset time; and the preceding sound and the motion sound are integrated to generate a target sound that represents the ambient sound of the target element.

[0054] The second preset time is the time required to record the action sound, and it is mainly set according to the time required for the target component to perform the action. When the target component is a circuit breaker, the second preset time can be set to 30 seconds. The duration of the second preset time should be longer than the length of time required for the target component to perform the action to ensure that the action sound can be recorded completely.

[0055] Step S106: Analyze the target sound using a diagnostic tool and output diagnostic results to characterize the working state of the target component.

[0056] A diagnostic tool, a type of neural network, utilizes deep learning mechanisms to analyze and process target sound, accurately outputting diagnostic results that characterize the working state of the target components. Diagnostic results obtained using the machine learning principles of a diagnostic tool offer higher accuracy and reliability compared to results obtained through subjective judgment by technicians in related technologies.

[0057] Specifically, the target sound is analyzed to generate frequency response data that characterizes the operating frequency of the target component; the frequency response data is compared with the expected frequency response to generate a frequency response difference value; and in response to the judgment result that the frequency response difference value is greater than the error threshold, a diagnostic result of abnormal working state is generated, or in response to the judgment result that the frequency response difference value is less than or equal to the error threshold, a diagnostic result of normal working state is generated.

[0058] Among them, the operating frequency can characterize the operating frequency of the target component. For example, when a circuit breaker connects and disconnects the circuit, it will produce an operating sound. The operating frequency of the circuit breaker can be inferred from the frequency of the operating sound. When the circuit breaker is in normal working condition, its operating frequency is within a reasonable frequency range. If the circuit breaker is aging, its frequency of connecting and disconnecting the circuit will decrease, and the operating frequency will also decrease accordingly.

[0059] Frequency response data is used to record the operating frequency of the target component. The desired frequency response is the reasonable frequency range data of the target component under normal operating conditions. The frequency response difference value is the difference between the frequency response data and the desired frequency response, used to characterize the difference between the operating frequency of the target component and the operating frequency of the target component under normal operating conditions.

[0060] In some implementations, prior to step S106, the method further includes: training the initial diagnostic element to generate a diagnostic tool.

[0061] The initial diagnostic element is a preliminary neural network consisting of multiple intermediate layers. The weights of each intermediate layer are initialized, therefore it cannot accurately output a diagnostic result based on the target sound. However, based on the learnable nature of neural networks, it can be trained into a diagnostic device capable of outputting diagnostic results based on the target sound using a large number of training samples.

[0062] Specifically, multiple sample sounds are acquired, including motion sounds; the sample sounds are analyzed by an initial diagnostic element to generate an estimation result; in response to the prediction error between the estimation result and the expected result, the weights of each intermediate element in the initial diagnostic element are adjusted; and when the prediction error is less than the error threshold, a diagnostic is generated.

[0063] In some implementations, noise reduction processing of the target audio is also included. Because the target audio contains preceding audio segments, which include a large proportion of pure noise, noise signal features can be extracted from the preceding audio. Based on these noise signal features, a mask extractor can accurately generate a noise mask for noise suppression. Using the noise mask, action sounds in the target audio can be extracted. The inclusion of preceding audio improves the accuracy of noise signal extraction, resulting in better noise reduction and easier analysis by the diagnostic tool.

[0064] The fault diagnosis method disclosed herein includes a pre-recording audio recording process, which facilitates accurate noise reduction and ensures complete acquisition of action sounds. Simultaneously, using a monitoring element to trigger the pre-recording audio buffer avoids wasting power and storage space on continuous buffering. Furthermore, the diagnostic results generated by the diagnostic tool using machine learning principles are more reliable than manual diagnosis. Storing the action sounds also provides data support for subsequent processing of abnormal operating states of target components.

A unit may be one or more hardware modules specifically configured to perform a corresponding step, or implemented by a processor configured to perform a corresponding step, or stored in a computer-readable storage medium for implementation by a processor, or implemented through some combination thereof.

[0067] This hardware architecture can be implemented using a bus architecture. The bus architecture can include any number of interconnect buses and bridges, depending on the specific application of the hardware and bus design constraints. Bus 1100 will connect various circuits, including one or more processors 1200, memory 1300, and / or hardware modules.
