[0003] At present, during the operation of calcium carbide furnace, whether it is the lifting and lowering control of the electrode in the calcium carbide furnace, the pressure and release control of the electrode, or the shifting operation of the transformer, they are all manually operated. Manual operation is heavily dependent on the operator's experience, which will cause the probability of unstable production and quality problems due to different manual operation cognition and unstable electrode management. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of this, the present application provides an electrode management method and device to replace the original manual operation mode of the calcium carbide furnace, reducing the probability of unstable production and quality problems caused by different operating cognition of manual operation and unstable electrode management.

[0005] Specifically, this application is implemented through the following technical solutions:

[0006] In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a method for controlling the working length of an electrode. The method is applied to a controller of a pressure-release measuring device, wherein the pressure-release measuring device further includes a synchronous belt provided with a magnetic block, wherein the magnetic block is used to be adsorbed on the outside of a holder for clamping an electrode in a calcium carbide furnace device, and the controller is electrically connected to a position sensor of the calcium carbide furnace device for measuring the exposed length of the electrode exposed to the charge surface. The method includes:

[0008] Determine the voltage value corresponding to the current calcium carbide furnace power according to a preset relationship between voltage and calcium carbide furnace power;

[0009] When the voltage value is lower than the set voltage value, determine whether the current electrode current reaches the set current upper limit. If it does not reach the current upper limit, adjust the current of the electrode so that the power usage of the electrode reaches the power usage setting value; if it reaches the current upper limit, reduce the current of the electrode, and at the same time adjust the voltage gear of the transformer responsible for each electrode to adjust the voltage of the corresponding electrode so that the power usage of the electrode reaches the power usage setting value.

[0010] In a second aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides an electrode working length control device, which is applied to a controller of a pressure-release measuring device, wherein the pressure-release measuring device further includes a synchronous belt provided with a magnetic block, wherein the magnetic block is used to be adsorbed on the outside of a holder for clamping an electrode in a calcium carbide furnace device, and the controller is electrically connected to a sensor provided on the calcium carbide furnace device. The device includes:

[0011] The current calcium carbide furnace power unit is used to obtain characteristic parameters sent by various sensors provided on the calcium carbide furnace equipment and used to represent the operating status of the calcium carbide furnace, and determine the current calcium carbide furnace power of the calcium carbide furnace;

[0012] A voltage value determination unit is used to determine the voltage value corresponding to the current calcium carbide furnace power according to a relationship between a preset voltage and the calcium carbide furnace power; when the voltage value is lower than the set voltage value, the electrode management unit is triggered;

[0013] The electrode management unit is used to determine whether the current electrode current has reached the set current upper limit. If it has not reached the current upper limit, the current of the electrode is adjusted so that the power usage of the electrode reaches the power usage setting value; if it has reached the current upper limit, the current of the electrode is reduced, and at the same time, the voltage gear of the transformer responsible for each electrode is adjusted to increase the voltage of the corresponding electrode, so as to adjust the voltage of the corresponding electrode so that the power usage of the electrode reaches the power usage setting value.

[0014] It can be seen that the embodiment of the present application provides an electrode management method and device. When managing the electrodes, the method determines the current calcium carbide furnace power of the calcium carbide furnace based on the characteristic parameters of the calcium carbide furnace equipment that have been obtained, and determines the voltage value corresponding to the current calcium carbide furnace power according to the relationship between the set voltage and the calcium carbide furnace power; when the voltage value is lower than the set voltage value, it is determined whether the current electrode current has reached the set current upper limit. If the current upper limit has not been reached, the current of the electrode is adjusted so that the electrode's power reaches the set power value; if the current upper limit is reached, the current of the electrode is reduced, and at the same time, the voltage gear of the transformer responsible for each electrode is adjusted to adjust the voltage of the corresponding electrode so that the electrode's power reaches the set power value. It can be seen that the technical solution provided by this embodiment basically does not require manual intervention, but rather adjusts the current and transformer gear to make the electrode's power reach the optimal power upper limit. This embodiment replaces the original manual operation method of the calcium carbide furnace, reducing the probability of unstable production and quality problems caused by different manual operation cognition and unstable electrode management.

[0022] Calcium carbide furnace is one of many types of ore-fired furnaces. In the calcium carbide furnace, quicklime and semi-coke are heated to high temperature and melted by three-phase electrode discharge. At the same time, the charge undergoes a chemical reaction to generate calcium carbide.

[0023] At present, during the operation of calcium carbide furnace, whether it is the lifting and lowering control of the electrode in the calcium carbide furnace, the pressure and release control of the electrode, or the shifting operation of the transformer, they are all manually operated. Manual operation is heavily dependent on the operator's experience, which will cause many problems, which are mainly reflected in the following aspects:

[0024] First, the operating cognition is different. Specifically, manual operation has different understandings of the working conditions of the calcium carbide furnace, which will lead to operational differences. The output fluctuates based on experience, and the furnace conditions controlled by each shift are different.

[0025] Second, electrode management is unstable, specifically: unstable electrode operation, unbalanced three-phase work, different lengths of electrodes entering the furnace, and unstable operating conditions.

[0026] Third, it leads to abnormal working conditions, specifically: the operator needs to be highly concentrated, the labor intensity is high, it is easy to make mistakes due to fatigue, there are many equipment failures, and tendon breaking often occurs.

[0027] Fourth, energy consumption and product quality are unstable. Specifically, different operating levels and operating habits of workers lead to inconsistent operations, resulting in unstable energy consumption and product quality.

[0028] These will all lead to the probability of unstable production and quality problems due to different operational cognition of manual operators and unstable electrode management.

[0029] In order to solve the above technical problems, the embodiment of the present application provides an electrode working length control method. When managing the electrode, the method determines the current calcium carbide furnace power of the calcium carbide furnace according to the characteristic parameters of the calcium carbide furnace equipment that have been obtained, and determines the voltage value corresponding to the current calcium carbide furnace power according to the relationship between the set voltage and the calcium carbide furnace power; when the voltage value is lower than the set voltage value, it is determined whether the current electrode current reaches the set current upper limit. If the current upper limit is not reached, the current of the electrode is adjusted so that the electrode's power reaches the power setting value; if the current upper limit is reached, the current of the electrode is reduced, and at the same time, the voltage gear of the transformer responsible for each electrode is adjusted to adjust the voltage of the corresponding electrode so that the electrode's power reaches the power setting value. It can be seen that the technical solution provided by this embodiment basically does not require manual intervention, but by regulating the current and transformer gear, the electrode's power reaches the optimal power upper limit. This embodiment replaces the original manual operation method of the calcium carbide furnace, reducing the probability of unstable production and quality problems caused by different manual operation cognition and unstable electrode management.

[0030] The following is a detailed description in the form of embodiments:

[0031] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1This is a flow chart of an electrode management method shown in an embodiment of the present application. The method is applied to the controller of a pressure-release measuring device. The pressure-release measuring device also includes a synchronous belt provided with a magnetic block, wherein the magnetic block is used to adsorb on the outside of a holder for clamping the electrode in the calcium carbide furnace equipment. The controller and the calcium carbide furnace equipment are electrically connected to a position sensor for measuring the exposed length of the electrode exposed to the furnace charge surface. In some embodiments, the pressure-release measuring device also includes an encoder for measuring the pressure release amount of the electrode. The encoder is connected to the above-mentioned synchronous belt. When the synchronous belt rotates, it will synchronously drive the encoder to rotate. The encoder can measure the pressure release amount of the electrode during the rotation process.

[0032] The method comprises the following steps:

[0033] Step 101: obtain characteristic parameters collected and sent by various sensors installed in the calcium carbide furnace equipment to represent the operating status of the calcium carbide furnace, and determine the current calcium carbide furnace power of the calcium carbide furnace based on the characteristic parameters.

[0034] In this embodiment, some of the three-phase electrodes of the calcium carbide furnace equipment are inserted into the charge of the calcium carbide furnace equipment, and some of the electrodes inserted into the charge of the calcium carbide furnace equipment will be consumed during the chemical reaction. In actual operation, the operating status of the calcium carbide furnace can be measured by some characteristic parameters, such as primary / secondary current, primary / secondary voltage, single-phase power of each electrode, furnace power factor, real-time pressure in the furnace and real-time temperature of purified exhaust gas, current density on each electrode and electrode roasting time. In some embodiments, in AC equipment, the circuit power factor is the active power minus the apparent power.

[0035] Step 102, according to the relationship between the preset voltage and the power of the calcium carbide furnace, determine the voltage value corresponding to the current calcium carbide furnace power. When the voltage value is lower than the set voltage value, execute step 103.

[0036] As an embodiment, the method for determining the relationship between the voltage and the power of the calcium carbide furnace in step 102 includes steps A11 to A14:

[0037] Step A11, determining the power density of the crucible of the calcium carbide furnace according to the relationship between power and the volume of the crucible of the calcium carbide furnace.

[0038] In this step, P∝D 3 Proportional, C = P / D 3 , D is the diameter of the calcium carbide furnace crucible, P is the power of the calcium carbide furnace, P is the total power of the calcium carbide furnace, and C is the power density of the calcium carbide furnace crucible. As an example, the C value can be 400-700KW / cubic meter.

[0039] Step A12, determining the current of the calcium carbide furnace crucible according to the power density of the crucible out of the calcium carbide furnace and a first relationship between the current density of the cross-sectional area of the calcium carbide furnace crucible and the cross-sectional area of the calcium carbide furnace crucible;

[0040] C 4 =4I / πD 2 or D=C 4 I 1 / 2 .

[0041] Step A13, determining a second relationship between the current, the electrode power of the calcium carbide furnace, and the power density of the crucible of the calcium carbide furnace by comparing the relationship between the Andre formula and the current;

[0042] In this embodiment, the Andre formula is: 1 / 4xπD 2 ∝I, then: I=C 3 P 2 / 3 .

[0043] Step A14: Based on the relationship between the power, the current and the voltage and the second relationship, determine the relationship between the voltage and the power of the calcium carbide furnace.

[0044] In this embodiment, P=IU=I 2 R, with U=C 2 P 1 / 3 , R=C1 P -1 / 3 , and then we can get the relationship between voltage and calcium carbide furnace power P.

[0045] In this embodiment, by comparing the Andre formula, the operating resistance corresponding to the electrode at the optimal usage power, that is, the upper limit of the usage power, can be determined. After knowing the operating resistance, the voltage can be increased to the set voltage value through steps 103 to 104, so that the current power reaches the optimal usage power. It should be noted that if the optimal resistance is to be achieved, the operating resistance can be made to reach the optimal range according to the corresponding relationship between voltage and current, thereby making the usage power of the electrode reach the usage power set value.

[0046] Step 103 , determining whether the current electrode current has reached a set current upper limit; if not, executing step 104 ; if reaching the current upper limit, executing step 105 .

[0047] In this embodiment, when the current of the electrode reaches the current upper limit, in order to protect the electrode, the current on the electrode needs to be reduced. At this time, if the voltage value is to reach the set voltage value, the voltage gear of the transformer to which the electrode belongs needs to be adjusted. When the current of the electrode does not reach the current upper limit, step 104 is executed.

[0048] Step 104: Adjust the current of the electrode so that the power used by the electrode reaches the set power value.

[0049] According to the relationship between current, voltage and power, if you want to increase the voltage to the set voltage value, you can first adjust the current of the electrode so that the power of the electrode reaches the upper limit of the working power. In this way, the voltage of the electrode will also increase.

[0050] Step 105 , reducing the current of the electrodes and adjusting the voltage level of the transformers responsible for the electrodes to adjust the voltage of the corresponding electrodes so that the power usage of the electrodes reaches the set power usage value.

[0051] In this embodiment, when the voltage value is lower than a set voltage value, the electrode current is first adjusted. During the adjustment, if the current has not reached the current upper limit, the current is adjusted. If the current reaches the current upper limit, the voltage level of the transformer to which the electrode belongs is adjusted. The voltage level is a pre-set voltage range, and each level corresponds to a different voltage range. As an embodiment, a total of 48 levels can be set. Of course, the 48 levels in this embodiment are merely an example and can be set according to actual conditions. This embodiment does not limit this.

[0052] So far, completed Figure 1 Description of the display.

[0053] It can be seen that in the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, when managing the electrode, the method determines the current calcium carbide furnace power of the calcium carbide furnace according to the characteristic parameters of the calcium carbide furnace equipment that have been obtained, and determines the voltage value corresponding to the current calcium carbide furnace power according to the relationship between the set voltage and the calcium carbide furnace power; when the voltage value is lower than the set voltage value, it is determined whether the current electrode current has reached the set current upper limit. If the current upper limit has not been reached, the current of the electrode is adjusted so that the electrode's power reaches the set power value; if the current upper limit is reached, the current of the electrode is reduced, and at the same time, the voltage gear of the transformer responsible for each electrode is adjusted to adjust the voltage of the corresponding electrode so that the electrode's power reaches the set power value. It can be seen that the technical solution provided by this embodiment basically does not require manual intervention, but by regulating the current and transformer gear, the electrode's power reaches the optimal power upper limit. This embodiment replaces the original manual operation method of the calcium carbide furnace, reducing the probability of unstable production and quality problems caused by different operating cognition and unstable electrode management.

[0054] As an embodiment, when each electrode is in a non-pressing and releasing period, after adjusting the current of the electrode in step 104, the method further includes: for each electrode, real-time detection of the pressing and releasing times of the holder clamping the electrode and the electrode lifting and lowering value of the electrode measured by the pressure-release measuring device; if it is detected that neither the pressing and releasing times nor the electrode lifting and lowering values have changed, it is determined that the electrode has not slipped; if it is detected that the pressing and releasing times have changed or the electrode lifting and lowering values have changed, it is determined that the electrode has slipped, and a slip alarm message indicating that the electrode has slipped is issued, or / and the slip alarm message is sent to a remote control system.

[0055] In the present embodiment, when each electrode is in a non-pressing and releasing period, in order to stabilize the working condition in the calcium carbide furnace, it is necessary to maintain the electrode in an immobile state, that is, the electrode is neither pressed and released nor raised and lowered. Based on this, in order to detect whether the electrode has slipped, the present embodiment detects the pressing and releasing times of the holder in real time. If it is detected that the pressing and releasing times of the holder have changed, this means that the electrode has slipped and it is necessary to promptly alarm and process to maintain the electrode stability as soon as possible. In order to improve the accuracy of preventing slippage of the electrode, it is also necessary to measure the electrode lifting value of the electrode by a press-release measuring device. If it is detected that the electrode lifting value measured by the press-release measuring device has changed, this means that the electrode has slipped. In actual operation, no matter the holder or the press-release measuring device, the detected value will not change. Only when the electrode is pressed and released will the electrode slide. Accordingly, the pressing and releasing value of the detecting holder and the electrode lifting value measured by the press-release measuring device will change.

[0056] The downhill slide warning information of this embodiment can be displayed in the form of an alarm sound and / or a bright warning light to attract the attention of the operator.

[0057] The controller of this embodiment is electrically connected to a remote control system. In this embodiment, the controller determines that the electrode has slipped and issues a slip alarm message indicating that the electrode has slipped. In other embodiments, the controller determines that the electrode has slipped and issues the slip alarm message to the remote control system. In other embodiments, the controller determines that the electrode has slipped, issues the slip alarm message indicating that the electrode has slipped, and sends the slip alarm message to the remote control system.

[0058] In some embodiments, after reducing the current of the electrodes in step 104, the method further includes: obtaining the hydrogen content detected in the calcium carbide furnace in real time; and when it is determined that the hydrogen content is greater than a set hydrogen content, sending a downshift pulse signal to the transformer to indicate that the electrode should be downshifted. Excessively high hydrogen content indicates an increased risk index, and based on this, the transformer cannot continue to perform an upshift operation. Instead, the transformer must be controlled to perform a downshift operation, thereby protecting the electrodes. This shows that this embodiment can achieve automatic shifting and enhance electrode protection.

[0059] In other embodiments, after reducing the current of the electrode in step 104, the method further includes: for each electrode, when it is determined that the electrode is in the pressure-release state, prohibiting the transmission of an upshift pulse signal indicating that the voltage of the electrode should be increased. In this embodiment, when the electrode is in the pressure-release state, the transformer is prohibited from performing an upshift operation. In other words, when the electrode is in the pressure-release state, the transformer does not perform an upshift or downshift operation, thereby enhancing protection of the electrode.

[0060] In other embodiments, when it is determined that the calcium carbide furnace has a material collapse phenomenon, a stop pulse signal is sent to the transformer to indicate that the voltage of the electrode should stop being shifted up or down. In this embodiment, if it is detected that the calcium carbide furnace has a material collapse phenomenon, the transformer is prohibited from performing a shift up or down operation to achieve automatic shifting and enhance the protection of the electrode. As an embodiment, determining that the calcium carbide furnace has a material collapse phenomenon includes: when it is detected that the current of the electrode suddenly drops and automatically gradually returns to its original state within a set time period, it is determined that the calcium carbide furnace has a material collapse phenomenon. The set time period can be 3 to 6 minutes. When the data feature of the current suddenly dropping and automatically gradually returning to its original state within a set time period is detected, it means that the calcium carbide furnace has a material collapse phenomenon.

[0061] In other embodiments, for each electrode, when it is determined that the electrode power corresponding to the electrode exceeds a set detection range, a downshift pulse signal is sent to the transformer associated with the electrode, indicating that the electrode should be downshifted. In this embodiment, when the electrode power exceeds the set detection range, the transformer is controlled to perform a downshift operation to achieve automatic gear shifting, enhance electrode protection, and stabilize the operating conditions within the calcium carbide furnace.

[0062] In some embodiments, for each electrode, when it is detected that the electrode is inserted into the calcium carbide furnace to a depth less than a set minimum length limit, a downshift pulse signal is sent to the transformer to which the electrode belongs, indicating that the electrode is to be downshifted. In this embodiment, the electrode depth is less than the set minimum length limit, which means that the electrode is too shallowly inserted into the furnace charge. In this case, it is necessary to control the transformer to perform a downshift operation to achieve automatic shifting, enhance electrode protection, and stabilize the operating conditions in the calcium carbide furnace.

[0063] In some embodiments, the pressure-release measurement device monitors the pressure-release amount of each electrode by the clamp to which each electrode belongs each time. If the deviation between the pressure-release amount and the average pressure-release amount in the previous set time period is greater than the set pressure-release amount, a pressure-release alarm message indicating that the pressure-release amount is too large is issued. This embodiment can achieve effective early warning for sudden excessive deviations in pressure-release amount, and promptly correct the unstable working conditions of the electrode caused by excessive pressure-release deviation. In other embodiments, the pressure-release alarm message is sent to a remote control system so that the operator can also remotely understand the working conditions in the calcium carbide furnace in a timely manner and make timely adjustments to it to avoid the impact caused by unstable working conditions of the electrode.

[0064] In some embodiments, during the operation of each electrode, the method further includes: obtaining a manual intervention signal for indicating that manual operation is allowed; according to the manual intervention signal, switching the automatic monitoring mode to the manual operation mode to allow manual intervention to intervene in the operation of the calcium carbide furnace. In this embodiment, random manual intervention is allowed to improve the flexibility of the calcium carbide furnace operation. In other embodiments, during the electrode lifting and lowering process, the lifting and lowering time of the electrode is recorded to automatically and accurately time the lifting and lowering process of the load electrode, avoid manual timing mistakes and reduce human errors. In other embodiments, for each electrode, the set power input for the electrode is obtained, and the actual power of the electrode operation is obtained; the actual power and the set power are compared to determine whether to send a pulse signal for an upshift operation or a downshift operation to the transformer to which the electrode belongs, so as to realize the voltage lifting and downshift operation of the electrode, so as to realize automatic current boost and current stabilization control. It can be seen that the application of the technical solution provided by this embodiment can improve system stability and reduce work accidents compared to the existing manual control.

[0065] As an embodiment, after obtaining the characteristic parameters sent by the sensors provided in the calcium carbide furnace equipment in step 101 and used to represent the operating status of the calcium carbide furnace, the method further includes: for each characteristic parameter obtained, drawing a curve for the characteristic parameter, and updating the historical curve of the characteristic parameter in real time. This enables the operator to view the historical trends of each characteristic parameter in real time, and thus to control the operating status of the calcium carbide furnace well. As other embodiments, electrode characteristic parameters for characterizing the operating status of the electrode are obtained from the obtained characteristic parameters, and electrode parameters are determined and displayed based on the electrode characteristic parameters. The technical solution provided in this embodiment can display the electrode characteristic parameters for the electrode, and thus enables the operator to know the electrode parameters in a timely manner.

[0066] In some embodiments, the controller is also electrically connected to a position sensor of the calcium carbide furnace device for measuring the exposed length of the electrode exposed to the charge surface, such as Figure 2 As shown, the method further includes:

[0067] Step 201: Obtain measurement parameters corresponding to each electrode in the calcium carbide furnace equipment, which are used to characterize electrode loss.

[0068] In this embodiment, some of the three-phase electrodes of the calcium carbide furnace equipment are inserted into the charge of the calcium carbide furnace equipment. Some of the electrodes inserted into the charge of the calcium carbide furnace equipment will be consumed during the chemical reaction, and the electrode loss can be measured through some physical quantities produced after the chemical reaction, such as exhaust gas, temperature, and current. The automatically set reference parameters include current (primary, secondary, low-compensation), voltage (primary, secondary, low-compensation), power factor, active power, gear, current-pressure ratio, operating resistance and branch resistance. In some embodiments, the measurement parameter can be the current on the electrode.

[0069] The measurement parameters of this embodiment can be manually input into the controller, or sent to the controller through an electronic device used to measure the corresponding measurement parameters. This embodiment is not limited to this. In some embodiments, the measurement parameters can be pre-processed data, such as noise-removed data.

[0070] Step 202: Input the measurement parameters into a preset neural network model to obtain the electrode loss rate corresponding to each electrode.

[0071] Among them, when the neural network model is used for the first time, the neural network model is an initially trained neural network model. When the neural network model is not used for the first time, the trained neural network model is a neural network model obtained after adaptive training using the acquired measurement parameters during the actual use of the neural network model.

[0072] In this embodiment, when the neural network model is first applied to the controller, it has been trained in advance. The neural network model first applied to the controller is the initially trained neural network model. During the actual application of the controller, the trained neural network becomes more and more diverse as the types of measured parameters increase. The originally trained neural network model is no longer suitable for the actual application conditions, and the accuracy of the output electrode consumption rate decreases. When the accuracy of the neural network model has been tested to a set accuracy threshold, in order not to affect the operation of the calcium carbide furnace equipment, the neural network model is subjected to online adaptive reinforcement training. The specific adaptive training process will be described in detail later in this embodiment and will not be repeated here. As an embodiment, after this step 202, the following may also be included: determining the accuracy of the neural network model. If the accuracy of the neural network model reaches the accuracy threshold, step 203 is executed. If the accuracy of the neural network model is lower than the accuracy threshold, a training prompt is issued to indicate that the neural network model needs to be adaptively trained. In other embodiments, the neural network model can be adaptively trained at set time intervals to obtain a neural network training model with higher accuracy.

[0073] It should be noted that the accuracy of the neural network model used in this controller is higher than that of the neural network models used before.

[0074] There are three-phase electrodes in the calcium carbide furnace equipment. Based on this, the neural network model also outputs the electrode consumption rate of each electrode.

[0075] Step 203 : determining the electrode consumption length corresponding to each electrode according to the electrode consumption rate corresponding to each electrode and the recorded actual working time of each electrode.

[0076] The actual working time of each electrode in this embodiment can be from the initial working time of the electrode to the current time when the electrode consumption time needs to be calculated. The actual working time of each electrode can be recorded by a counter specifically used to record the working time of each electrode. The counter is connected to the controller so that the working time corresponding to each electrode can be obtained from the counter according to actual needs. It can also be the working time corresponding to each electrode recorded by the controller when it determines that each electrode has started working. Of course, it can also be other electronic devices that record the working time of each electrode. These electronic devices are connected to the controller and can be obtained from other electronic devices when the working time corresponding to each electrode is needed. This embodiment does not limit this.

[0077] Step 204, obtaining the exposed length of each electrode exposed on the charge surface measured by the position sensor, and determining the position of the electrode tip of each electrode penetrating into the charge based on the original length, exposed length, and electrode consumption length corresponding to each electrode, so as to control the gripper to which the electrode belongs to raise or lower the depth of the electrode in the charge according to the electrode tip position of each electrode, so that the depth of each electrode penetrating into the charge is the same.

[0078] The position sensor of this embodiment is installed in the holder of the calcium carbide furnace equipment, which can measure the exposed length of each electrode exposed to the material surface. After knowing the original length, exposed length and electrode consumption length corresponding to each electrode, the electrode tip position of each electrode deep into the furnace charge can be determined, so as to better regulate the depth of each electrode inserted into the furnace charge in the calcium carbide furnace equipment, so that the depth of each electrode inserted into the furnace charge in the calcium carbide furnace equipment is consistent, that is, the working length of each electrode is consistent, so that the various working conditions and required indicators in the calcium carbide furnace equipment will be better. It should be noted that the electrode tip position of each electrode is best to be in the same plane, which is the most ideal furnace condition.

[0079] So far, completed Figure 2 Description of the display.

[0080] It can be seen that in the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, when adjusting the working length of the electrode, the measurement parameters obtained in real time are input into the adaptively trained and high-precision neural network model to obtain the electrode consumption rate corresponding to each electrode; and according to the electrode consumption rate corresponding to each electrode and the recorded actual working time of each electrode, the electrode consumption length corresponding to each electrode is determined, and then according to the original length corresponding to each electrode, the exposed length measured in real time and the determined electrode consumption length, the position of the electrode tip of each electrode deep into the charge is determined, so that for each electrode, according to the electrode tip position of the electrode, the holder to which the electrode belongs is controlled to raise or lower the depth of the electrode in the charge, so that the depth of each electrode deep into the charge is the same. It can be seen that the application of the technical solution provided in this embodiment basically requires no human intervention, but instead determines the actual length data of the electrode through a high-precision and adaptively trained neural network model. This not only reduces the labor intensity and skill requirements of workers, but also reduces the technical problem of large errors in electrode length measurement caused by human factors. At the same time, it can also make timely adjustments when the electrode length tends to be too long or too short, and control the electrode length within a reasonable range, meeting the requirements of refined management of electrode working length adjustment. In addition, it can also reduce the frequency of electrode measurement and reduce the safety risks brought by electrode measurement.

[0081] As an embodiment, this embodiment will only perform adaptive training on the neural network training model applied in this controller when it is necessary to perform adaptive training on the neural network training model. In order to influence the operation of the calcium carbide furnace and improve the accuracy of the neural network training model, this embodiment adopts online adaptive reinforcement training. In some embodiments, the situation where the neural network training model needs to be adaptively trained can be the consumption length error between the electrode consumption length corresponding to each electrode determined in step 203 and the actual electrode consumption length corresponding to each electrode. If the consumption length error is lower than the error threshold, it is considered that the neural network model does not need to be reinforced again. If the consumption length error is higher than the error threshold, it is considered that the neural network model needs to be reinforced again. Among them, one way to realize the actual electrode consumption length corresponding to each electrode is to stop the operation of the calcium carbide furnace equipment and take out the electrode from the charge for measurement. Another implementation method may be: a high-temperature resistant sensor is set within the interval length of the electrode. When the end of the electrode is located at the high-temperature resistant sensor, the high-temperature resistant sensor sends position information representing the position of the electrode end to the controller. After obtaining the position information, the controller controls the high-temperature resistant sensor to detach from the electrode and pull the electrode out of the charge. The position information sent by the high-temperature resistant sensor obtained by the controller is the actual electrode length of the electrode.

[0082] In some embodiments, the training process via network model adaptation is as follows:

[0083] Step B11, during the operation of the calcium carbide furnace equipment, obtaining measurement parameters corresponding to each electrode in the calcium carbide furnace equipment for characterizing electrode loss.

[0084] The measurement parameters obtained in this embodiment are actual measurement parameters obtained while the calcium carbide furnace equipment is still in operation. The actual measurement parameters can be preprocessed measurement parameters for input into the neural network model.

[0085] Step B12: input the measurement parameters into a preset neural network model to obtain the electrode loss rate corresponding to each electrode.

[0086] As an example, the neural network model used in this example is a convolutional neural network built using TensorFlow. TensorFlow is an end-to-end open source machine learning platform. It has a comprehensive and flexible ecosystem that includes various tools, libraries, and community resources to help researchers advance the development of advanced machine learning technologies and enable developers to easily build and deploy applications powered by machine learning. The features of the framework are as follows: Easily build models. Easily build and train machine learning models using intuitive high-level APIs such as Keras in an immediate execution environment that enables rapid model iteration and easy model debugging. Reliable machine learning production anytime, anywhere. No matter which language you use, you can easily train and deploy models in the cloud, locally, in a browser, or on a device. Powerful research experiments. A simple and flexible architecture allows you to more quickly transform new ideas from concept to code, create advanced models, and ultimately release them to the public.

[0087] As an embodiment, the neural network model of this embodiment adopts the relu function as the input function and the sofemax function of TensorFlow as the output function.

[0088] Step B13, determining the consumed length of each electrode according to the electrode consumption rate and the actual working time of each electrode, and determining the predicted remaining length of each electrode according to the original length and the consumed length of each electrode.

[0089] In this embodiment, for each electrode, the predicted remaining length of the electrode is the original length of the electrode minus the consumed length of the electrode.

[0090] Step B14: obtaining the actual remaining length of each electrode actually measured.

[0091] One way to implement the actual remaining length of this embodiment is to stop the operation of the calcium carbide furnace equipment, take out the electrode from the furnace charge of the calcium carbide furnace equipment, and measure the length obtained. The actual remaining length is the remaining length obtained by subtracting the consumed length of the electrode from the original length of the electrode.

[0092] Step B15, calculate the consumption length error based on the determined predicted remaining length and the actual remaining length, and record the consumption length error this time. If the recorded consumption length error this time is smaller than the consumption length error recorded last time, record the consumption length error this time, and execute step 204; when the consumption length error recorded within the set number of times is in convergence, determine the neural network model as the neural network model set in the controller for updating. If the recorded consumption length error this time is larger than the consumption length error recorded last time, delete the consumption length error this time, adjust the model parameters of the neural network model, determine the adjusted neural network model as the new neural network model, and continue to execute step B11.

[0093] In this embodiment, the recorded error in the consumed length this time is smaller than the error in the consumed length last time, which indicates that the accuracy of the neural network model trained this time is higher than the accuracy of the previously trained neural network model. When the recorded errors in the consumed length within a set number of times are all on a decreasing trend, it indicates that the neural network model is converging, and the neural network model obtained after the last training is determined to be used to update the neural network model set in the controller. During the training process, if the recorded error in the consumed length this time is larger than the error in the consumed length last time, it indicates that the neural network model has not been trained to the optimal level, and it is necessary to delete the error in the consumed length this time and adjust the model parameters of the neural network model. The adjusted neural network model is determined as the new neural network model, and the process returns to step A to continue training the neural network model until a converged neural network model is obtained.

[0094] In this embodiment, when it is determined that the error of the consumption length determined by the electrode consumption rate output by the currently used neural network model is small and better than the error of the consumption length determined by the neural network model used last time, this indicates that the accuracy of the currently used neural network model is better. Based on this, the electrode consumption length predicted by the electrode consumption rate output by the currently used neural network model is used.

[0095] It can be seen that in the actual application process, this embodiment adopts adaptive training of the existing neural network model, which can further improve the accuracy of the neural network model without delaying the actual operation of the calcium carbide furnace equipment, so as to more accurately predict the electrode consumption rate.

[0096] In the process of controlling the holder of the electrode to raise or lower the depth of the electrode in the charge, the method further comprises:

[0097] During the operation of the calcium carbide furnace equipment, the current on each electrode is detected in real time. For the current on each electrode detected, according to the electrode coupling rule and the three-phase current balance, it is determined whether the length of the electrode in the charge is adjusted up or down. In order to increase the stability of the electrodes in the furnace, in some embodiments, during the operation of the calcium carbide furnace equipment, the current on each electrode is detected in real time. For the current on each electrode detected, according to the electrode coupling rule and the three-phase current balance, it is determined whether the length of the electrode in the charge is adjusted up or down. In this embodiment, the calcium carbide furnace equipment is provided with an ammeter for measuring the current on the electrode. The ammeter is used to detect the current of the electrode in real time and send the detected current to the controller. After obtaining the current of the electrode, the controller will use the electrode coupling rule and the three-phase current balance to determine whether to adjust the length of the electrode in the furnace charge for the current on each electrode. In this embodiment, the electrode coupling rule is an inherent characteristic of the three-phase electrode. When the current on electrode A1 is abnormal, the electrode B1 connected to electrode A1 is adjusted. When the current on electrode B1 is abnormal, the electrode C1 connected to electrode B1 is adjusted; when the current on electrode C1 is abnormal, the electrode A1 connected to electrode C1 is adjusted.

[0098] In other embodiments, the determination of whether to adjust the length of the electrode in the charge by raising or lowering the electrode according to the electrode coupling rule and the three-phase current balance may include the following steps C11 to C13:

[0099] In step C11, when it is detected that the actual current of the electrode is higher than the current control range, step B is executed; when it is detected that the current of the electrode is lower than the current control range, step C13 is executed.

[0100] As an embodiment, the current control range may be determined according to the following setting basis, which includes at least one of operating resistance balance, power balance, electrode position balance, and normal power factor.

[0101] Taking electrode A1 as an example, the secondary current value is set to 108KA, with a control range of ±1.8KA. The upper and lower ranges of 108KA are 106.2~109.8KA. When the secondary current of electrode A1 is less than 106.2KA, the control output is used to indicate that the electrode A1 is decreasing. The controller receives the decreasing signal and executes step H. When the secondary current C is greater than 109.8KA, the control output is used to indicate that the electrode A1 is increasing. Step G is executed.

[0102] In some embodiments, after adjusting the electrode, the power factor of the calcium carbide furnace is obtained. When the power factor of the calcium carbide furnace is within the set range, it means that the electrode will neither be lifted to the material surface nor inserted into the bottom of the furnace. If the set range is 0.73~0.83, it can be guaranteed that after the next adjustment, the electrode will neither be lifted to the material surface nor inserted into the bottom of the furnace.

[0103] Step C12: controlling the holder to which the electrode belongs to increase the working length of the electrode in the charge according to a first set rate and a first set number of adjustments.

[0104] In this embodiment, the first set rate is named only for the convenience of distinguishing it from the set rates described later, and is not used to limit a certain set rate. Accordingly, the first set control times is named only for the convenience of distinguishing it from the set control times described later, and is not used to limit a certain set control times.

[0105] As an embodiment, the first set rate can be increased by 10 mm per millisecond. In order to maintain the stability of the electrode in the furnace, the working length of the electrode can be increased by at least one adjustment number. For example, if it is determined that it needs to be increased by 30 mm, it can be increased by 10 mm at the first set rate first, wait for 15 seconds, increase by 10 mm at the first set rate again, wait for 15 seconds, and finally increase by 10 mm at the first set rate. In this way, the electrode is increased by 30 mm while maintaining stable operation.

[0106] Step C13: Control the holder to which the electrode belongs to reduce the working length of the electrode in the furnace charge according to a second set rate and a second set number of adjustments.

[0107] Here, the second set rate is only named for the convenience of description and is not used to limit a certain set rate. Accordingly, the second set control times is only named for the convenience of description and is not used to limit a certain set control times.

[0108] The first set rate may be the same as or different from the second set rate, which is not limited in this embodiment. Accordingly, the first set control times may be the same as or different from the second set control times, which is not limited in this embodiment.

[0109] In order to maintain the stability of the electrode in the furnace, the working length of the electrode can also be reduced by at least one adjustment. For example, if it is determined that it needs to be reduced by 20 mm, it can be increased by 10 mm at the second set rate, wait for 15 seconds, and then reduced by 10 mm at the second set rate to achieve the goal of reducing by 20 mm.

[0110] In some embodiments, the implementation of step C12 may include the following steps C121 to C123:

[0111] Step C121: Calculate the current difference between the current actual current and the first current threshold. If the current difference is within the first current control threshold, execute step C122. If the current difference is not within the first current threshold, execute step C123.

[0112] In this embodiment, the first current threshold is named only for the convenience of distinguishing it from the current thresholds described later, and is not used to limit a certain current threshold.

[0113] If the current difference is within the first current control threshold range, it means that the gripper only needs to lift the electrode to the working length of the calcium carbide furnace equipment once at the first set rate and the first set length, that is, execute step C122. If the current difference is not within the first current control threshold range, it means that the gripper needs to lift the electrode to the working length of the calcium carbide furnace equipment multiple times at the first set rate and the first set length to achieve the lifting target, that is, execute step C123.

[0114] Step C122, controlling the holder to which the electrode belongs to elevate the electrode to a working length in the calcium carbide furnace equipment at a first set length and at a first set rate.

[0115] In this embodiment, the first set length is named only for the convenience of distinguishing it from the set control times described later, and is not used to limit a certain set length.

[0116] Step C123, control the holder to which the electrode belongs to lift the working length of the electrode in the charge at a first set rate and by the first set length, wait for a preset first observation time, and when the first observation time is reached, obtain the detected actual current, use the obtained actual current as the current actual current, and return to execute step C121.

[0117] As an embodiment, the first observation time is at least 15 seconds.

[0118] This embodiment increases the working length of an electrode and detects the actual current of the electrode to determine whether the working length of the electrode needs to be further increased, until the current difference between the detected actual current and the first current threshold is lower than the current threshold indicating that there is no need to regulate the current of the electrode, and stops controlling the gripper to regulate the working length of the electrode.

[0119] Based on the above embodiment, the implementation method of step C13 may include the following steps C131 to C133:

[0120] Step C131, calculate the current difference between the current actual current and the second current threshold. If the current difference is within the second current control threshold, execute step C132; if the current difference is not within the second current threshold, execute step C133.

[0121] In this embodiment, the second current threshold is named only for the convenience of distinguishing it from the current threshold described later, and is not used to limit a certain current threshold.

[0122] If the current difference is within the second current control threshold range, it means that the gripper only needs to reduce the working length of the electrode in the calcium carbide furnace equipment once at the second set rate and the second set length, that is, step C132 is executed. If the current difference is not within the second current control threshold range, it means that the gripper needs to reduce the working length of the electrode in the calcium carbide furnace equipment multiple times at the second set rate and the second set length to achieve the reduction target, that is, step C133 is executed.

[0123] Here, the second current threshold is simply named for ease of description and is not intended to limit a specific current threshold. Accordingly, the second set length is simply named for ease of description and is not intended to limit a specific set length. The first current threshold may be the same as or different from the second current threshold, and this embodiment does not limit this. The first set length may be the same as or different from the second set length, and this embodiment does not limit this.

[0124] Step C132: Control the holder to which the electrode belongs to reduce the working length of the electrode in the charge by a second set length at a second set rate.

[0125] Step C133, control the holder to which the electrode belongs to reduce the working length of the electrode in the charge by a second set length at a second set rate, wait for a preset second observation time, and when the second observation time is reached, obtain the detected actual current, use the obtained actual current as the current actual current, and return to the step of executing step C131.

[0126] This embodiment reduces the working length of a primary electrode and detects the actual current of the primary electrode to determine whether the working length of the electrode needs to be further reduced, until the current difference between the detected actual current and the second current threshold is lower than the current threshold used to indicate that there is no need to regulate the current of the electrode, and stops controlling the gripper to regulate the working length of the electrode.

[0127] As another embodiment, the implementation of step C12 may include the following steps C124 to C126:

[0128] Step C124, calculating the current difference between the current actual current and the first current threshold. If the current difference is within the first current control threshold, executing step C125; if the current difference is not within the first current threshold, executing step C126.

[0129] Step C125 , controlling the holder to which the electrode belongs to elevate the working length of the electrode in the charge at a first set speed and a first set length.

[0130] Step C126, determining the number of times the electrode is lifted based on the current difference and the first current control threshold, and controlling the holder to which the electrode belongs to lift the working length of the electrode in the charge at a first set rate, a first set length, and the determined number of times of control.

[0131] In this embodiment, the number of times the electrode needs to be raised is determined based on the current difference and a first current control threshold. The gripper is then controlled to raise the electrode to a working length within the charge material at a first set rate, a first set length, and the determined number of times. In one embodiment, the first set length is determined based on the raising length threshold and the required electrode raising length. For example, if the raising length threshold is 10 mm and the required electrode raising length is 25 mm, the first set lengths are 10 mm and 5 mm.

[0132] Exemplarily, if the current difference is 30 mA and the first current control threshold is 10 mA, then the number of controls is 3 times. Another exemplary example is that if the current difference is 25 mA and the first current control threshold is 10 mA, then the number of controls is 3 times, and the third control is 5 mA.

[0133] Based on the above embodiment, the implementation method of step C13 may include steps C134 to C136:

[0134] Step C134 , calculating the current difference between the current actual current and the second current threshold. If the current difference is within the second current control threshold, executing step C135 ; if the current difference is not within the second current threshold, executing step C136 .

[0135] Step C135 , controlling the holder to which the electrode belongs to elevate the working length of the electrode in the charge at a second set speed and a second set length.

[0136] Step C136, determining the number of times to increase the electrode according to the current difference and the second current control threshold, and controlling the holder to which the electrode belongs to reduce the working length of the electrode in the charge according to the second set rate, the second set length and the determined number of controls.

[0137] In this embodiment, the number of times the electrode needs to be raised is determined based on the current difference and the second current control threshold. The gripper is then controlled to reduce the electrode's working length within the charge material at a second set rate, by a second set length, and for the determined number of times. In one embodiment, the second set length is determined based on the length reduction threshold and the required electrode length reduction. For example, if the raising length threshold is 10 mm and the electrode length needs to be reduced by 25 mm, the second set lengths are 10 mm and 5 mm.

[0138] For example, if the current difference is 30 mA and the second current control threshold is 10 mA, then based on the relationship between current and reducing electrode length, the current difference is 30 mA and the second current control threshold is 10 mA, and the number of controls is determined to be 3 times.

[0139] On the other hand, Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment provides an electrode management device 300, which is applied to the controller of a pressure-release measuring device. The pressure-release measuring device also includes a synchronous belt provided with a magnetic block, wherein the magnetic block is used to be adsorbed on the outside of a holder for clamping an electrode in a calcium carbide furnace device.

[0142] The electrode management unit 303 is used to determine whether the current electrode current has reached the set current upper limit.

[0150] The second downshift pulse unit is used to send a downshift pulse signal to the transformer to which the electrode belongs for indicating a downshift operation on the electrode when it is detected that the electrode depth inserted into the calcium carbide furnace is less than the set minimum length limit value for each electrode.

[0151] As an embodiment, the stopping pulse unit determines that the calcium carbide furnace has collapsed, including: when it is detected that the current of the electrode suddenly drops and automatically recovers to its original state within a set time period, it is determined that the calcium carbide furnace has collapsed.

[0152] As an embodiment, the device also includes: a pressure-release alarm unit, which is used to monitor the pressure-release amount of each electrode each time the clamp to which each electrode belongs presses and releases the electrode through a pressure-release measuring device. If the deviation between the pressure-release amount and the average pressure-release amount in the previous set time period is greater than the set pressure-release amount, a pressure-release alarm message indicating that the pressure-release amount is too large is issued, or / and the pressure-release alarm message is sent to a remote control system.

If the current upper limit has not been reached, the current of the electrode is adjusted so that the electrode's power reaches the set power value; if the current upper limit is reached, the current of the electrode is reduced, and at the same time, the voltage gear of the transformer responsible for each electrode is adjusted to adjust the voltage of the corresponding electrode so that the electrode's power reaches the set power value. It can be seen that the technical solution provided by this embodiment basically requires no manual intervention, but rather the electrode's power reaches the optimal power upper limit by regulating the current and transformer gear.
