[0002] Tobacco processing is a crucial step in cigarette manufacturing. The accuracy of the parameters on the tobacco processing equipment directly impacts product quality. In actual production, if staff forget to revert to the original parameters after modification for maintenance or debugging, or if parameters are changed due to misoperation, the equipment may operate with incorrect parameters.

Therefore, ensuring the accuracy of equipment parameters before production is a vital aspect of the tobacco processing process.

[0003] Currently, to ensure the accuracy of equipment parameters, a combination of access control and manual verification is mainly used.

[0034] Various exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangement, numerical expressions, and values ​​of the components and steps set forth in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the present disclosure.

[0035] At the same time, it should be understood that, for ease of description, the dimensions of the various parts shown in the accompanying drawings are not drawn according to actual scale.

[0036] The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative and is in no way intended to limit this disclosure or its application or use.

[0037] Techniques, methods, and equipment known to those skilled in the art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, such techniques, methods, and equipment should be considered part of the specification.

[0038] In all examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values ​​should be interpreted as merely exemplary and not as limitations. Therefore, other examples of exemplary embodiments may have different values.

[0039] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items; therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be discussed further in subsequent figures.

[0040] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this disclosure clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with specific embodiments and the accompanying drawings.

[0041] In related technologies, a combination of access control and manual verification can ensure parameter accuracy to a certain extent. However, because this method relies on manual operation, it is prone to omissions or errors in manual verification. For example, if maintenance personnel fail to promptly correct parameters after repairing the equipment, or if operators are perfunctory in verifying parameters and fail to promptly check for modifications, it may lead to incorrect parameters during production, thus affecting product quality. Furthermore, since the number of parameters in a yarn-making production line is large—some processes can have more than 150 parameters—requiring operators to verify these parameters would significantly increase their workload, slow down production efficiency in the yarn-making process, and increase the risk of oversights by operators, impacting product quality in the yarn-making stage.

[0042] In view of this, this disclosure proposes an automatic parameter verification method, device and system for tobacco production equipment, which can improve the verification efficiency and reliability of the parameters of tobacco production equipment, thereby helping to improve the quality of the produced tobacco while increasing the tobacco production efficiency.

[0043] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating an automatic parameter verification method for tobacco production equipment according to some embodiments of this disclosure. Figure 1 As shown, the automatic parameter verification method for tobacco production equipment includes steps S110 and S120.

[0044] In step S110, in response to the first operation node before tobacco production being triggered, the parameters of the tobacco production equipment associated with the first operation node are verified, or the verification device is instructed to verify the parameters of the tobacco production equipment associated with the first operation node to obtain a first verification result.

[0045] In some embodiments, the automatic parameter verification method for the tobacco production equipment is performed by the automatic parameter verification device of the tobacco production equipment.

[0046] Before tobacco production, there are multiple operation nodes, including the first operation node. The first operation node is a target operation node. Target operation nodes are those bound to parameter verification events. There are multiple target operation nodes, and the parameters of the tobacco production equipment associated with each target operation node are a subset of the parameters of the tobacco production equipment.

[0047] In some embodiments, all operational nodes prior to tobacco production are considered target operational nodes.

[0048] In some embodiments, some operation nodes before tobacco production are target operation nodes, while others are non-target operation nodes. Non-target operation nodes refer to operation nodes that are not bound to parameter validation events. For example, the operation nodes before tobacco production can be triggered by operators or automatically by the system.

[0049] For example, before tobacco production, there are three operational nodes, including the first operational node, and all three are target operational nodes, such as the shift production start node, the batch task issuance node, and the batch task issuance success node. The shift production start node can be understood as the check-in operation node triggered by the operator before tobacco production begins; the batch task issuance node can be understood as the operation node triggered by the operator before tobacco production begins, issuing a batch of tobacco production tasks; and the batch task issuance success node can be understood as the operation node where a batch of tobacco production tasks is successfully issued.

[0050] In practice, the operational nodes prior to tobacco production can include not only a three-node option, but also a two-node, four-node, or other number of operational nodes. Furthermore, the specific meaning and triggering method of each operational node can be determined based on the actual conditions of tobacco production.

[0051] In some embodiments, after the first operation node before tobacco production is triggered, the automatic parameter verification device of the tobacco production equipment verifies the parameters associated with the first operation node to obtain a first verification result.

[0052] For example, verifying the parameters of the tobacco production equipment associated with the first operation node includes: when the parameter of the tobacco production equipment associated with the first operation node is a value-verification type parameter, comparing the current setting value of the parameter with the standard value; when the parameter of the tobacco production equipment associated with the first operation node is a range-verification type parameter, comparing the current setting value of the parameter with the standard value range. By using different verification methods for value-verification type parameters and range-verification type parameters, more accurate verification can be performed, which helps to improve the accuracy and reliability of the verification results.

[0053] In other embodiments, after the first operation node before tobacco production is triggered, the automatic parameter verification device of the tobacco production equipment instructs the verification device to verify the parameters associated with the first operation node in order to obtain a first verification result.

[0054] In this embodiment, by associating multiple parameter verification events with multiple operation nodes, the parameters of the tobacco production equipment can be automatically verified when an operation node is triggered. Compared to manual parameter verification, this ensures parameter accuracy. Simultaneously, by associating only some parameters with operation nodes, each verification only checks a subset of parameters, minimizing system resource consumption and improving verification efficiency compared to verifying all parameters each time. Furthermore, by categorizing the parameters of the tobacco production equipment based on their characteristics and verifying different types of parameters at different operation nodes, this further ensures verification reliability while reducing unnecessary parameter verification cycles, thereby further minimizing system resource consumption.

[0055] In step S120, if the first verification result shows that the parameters of the tobacco production equipment associated with the first operation node have failed the verification, the user is shown a first parameter abnormality prompt message.

[0056] In some embodiments, after the automatic parameter verification device of the tobacco production equipment obtains the first verification result, if the first verification result indicates that the parameter of the tobacco production equipment associated with the first operation node has failed the verification, a first parameter abnormality prompt message is generated based on the first verification result and displayed to the user so that the user can promptly discover and modify the setting value of the abnormal parameter based on the abnormality prompt message. This helps to improve the processing efficiency of the tobacco production process while ensuring the accuracy of the setting value of the equipment parameter in tobacco production.

[0057] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the above steps can improve the efficiency and reliability of parameter verification of the tobacco production equipment, thereby helping to improve the quality of the produced tobacco while increasing the production efficiency.

[0058] Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating an automatic parameter verification method for tobacco production equipment according to other embodiments of this disclosure. Figure 2 As shown, the automatic parameter verification method for tobacco production equipment includes steps S210 to S250.

[0059] In step S210, in response to the first operation node before tobacco production being triggered, a verification command is generated and sent to the verification device.

[0060] In some embodiments, the automatic parameter verification method for the tobacco production equipment is executed by an automatic parameter verification device for the tobacco production equipment, or by a centralized control system including the automatic parameter verification device.

[0061] The first operation node is a target operation node. A target operation node is an operation node bound to a parameter validation event. There are multiple target operation nodes, and the parameters of the tobacco production equipment associated with each target operation node are a subset of the parameters of the tobacco production equipment.

[0062] In some embodiments, the parameters of the tobacco production equipment associated with each target operation node are determined based on the execution frequency of the target operation node and the update frequency of the parameters of the tobacco production equipment.

[0063] For example, the execution frequency of at least some of the target operation nodes is positively correlated with the update frequency of the parameters of the associated tobacco production equipment. For instance, target operation node 1 is the shift production start node, which is executed once a day, and the parameters of the tobacco production equipment with a lower update frequency are associated with target operation node 1; target operation node 2 is the batch task production node, which is executed multiple times a day, and the parameters of the tobacco production equipment with a higher update frequency are associated with target operation node 2.

[0064] In some embodiments, the parameters of the tobacco production equipment associated with each target operation node are determined based on the execution time of the target operation node and the update time of the parameters of the tobacco production equipment.

[0065] For example, the execution time of at least a portion of the target operation node is after the update time of the parameters of its associated tobacco production equipment. For instance, target operation node 3 is a successful batch task submission node, which is executed after the process parameters (or formula parameters) of the tobacco production equipment are updated. Therefore, target operation node 3 is associated with the process parameters of the tobacco production equipment. Exemplarily, process parameters can be understood as parameters affecting the quality of tobacco in the tobacco processing process, including parameters such as the water addition ratio and feeding ratio of the loosening and rehydration machine and the feeding machine, the hot air temperature, the drum temperature of the drying machine, the negative pressure, and the hot air temperature.

[0066] In some embodiments, the parameters of the tobacco production equipment associated with each target operation node are determined based on the execution frequency of the target operation node, the update frequency of the parameters of the tobacco production equipment, the execution time of the target operation node, and the update time of the parameters of the tobacco production equipment.

[0067] For example, the execution frequency of at least a portion of the target operation node is positively correlated with the update frequency of the parameters of its associated tobacco production equipment, and the execution time of at least a portion of the target operation node is after the update time of the parameters of its associated tobacco production equipment.

[0068] In this embodiment, by associating multiple parameter verification events with multiple operation nodes, the parameters of the tobacco production equipment can be automatically verified when an operation node is triggered. Compared to manual parameter verification, this ensures parameter accuracy. Simultaneously, by associating only some parameters with operation nodes, each verification only checks a subset of parameters, minimizing system resource consumption and improving verification efficiency compared to verifying all parameters each time. Furthermore, by determining the parameters of the tobacco production equipment associated with each target operation node based on the execution frequency of the target operation node, the update frequency of the tobacco production equipment parameters, the execution time of the target operation node, and the update time of the tobacco production equipment parameters, this allows for more frequent verification of parameters with high update frequencies and fewer verifications of parameters with low update frequencies. This ensures accurate equipment parameter settings while reducing unnecessary system resource consumption and improving verification efficiency. Moreover, timely parameter verification after updates further guarantees the accuracy of equipment parameter settings.

[0069] In some embodiments, before step S210, the method further includes: an automatic parameter verification device for the tobacco production equipment determining whether the first operation node is a target operation node; if the first operation node is confirmed to be a target operation node, steps S210 to S250 are executed; if the first operation node is confirmed not to be a target operation node, the parameter verification logic is not executed.

[0070] In some embodiments, after receiving a verification command, the verification device verifies the parameters associated with the first operation node in the following manner: when the parameter of the tobacco production equipment associated with the first operation node is a value verification type parameter, the current setting value of the parameter is compared with the standard value. If the current setting value of the parameter is consistent with the standard value, the parameter is considered to have passed the verification; if the current setting value of the parameter is inconsistent with the standard value, the parameter is considered to have failed the verification. When the parameter of the tobacco production equipment associated with the first operation node is a range verification type parameter, the current setting value of the parameter is compared with the standard value range. If the current setting value of the parameter is within the standard value range, the parameter is considered to have passed the verification; if the current setting value of the parameter is outside the standard value range, the parameter is considered to have failed the verification.

[0071] In this embodiment, parameter verification is performed by a separately configured verification device instructed by the centralized control system, rather than by the centralized control system itself. This ensures that parameter verification does not affect the original operation of the centralized control system, reducing the resource consumption of the centralized control system. Furthermore, by using different verification methods for parameters of different verification types, more accurate verification can be performed, which helps to improve the accuracy and reliability of the verification results.

[0072] In step S220, the first verification result returned by the verification device is received.

[0073] In step S230, it is determined whether the first verification result indicates that the associated parameter has passed the verification.

[0074] In some embodiments, the first verification result can be either an indication that the verification passed or an indication that the verification failed. For example, when the first verification result carries the identifier "success", it indicates that the associated parameter passed the verification; when the first verification result carries the identifier "false", it indicates that the associated parameter failed the verification. In addition, the first verification result may also carry indications of which specific parameters failed the verification and which parameters passed the verification.

[0075] If the first verification result indicates that the associated parameter has passed the verification, proceed to step S240; if the first verification result indicates that the associated parameter has failed the verification, proceed to step S250.

[0076] In step S240, the next operation node is triggered either according to the user's operation instructions or automatically.

[0077] In step S250, an error message indicating an abnormality in the first parameter is displayed to the user.

[0078] In some embodiments, the automatic parameter verification device of the tobacco production equipment generates a first parameter abnormality prompt message based on the first verification result and displays the first parameter abnormality prompt message to the user so that the user can promptly discover and modify the setting value of the abnormal parameter based on the abnormality prompt message. This helps to improve the processing efficiency of the tobacco production process while ensuring the accuracy of the setting value of the equipment parameters in tobacco production.

[0079] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the above steps can improve the efficiency and reliability of parameter verification of the tobacco production equipment, thereby helping to improve the quality of the produced tobacco while increasing the production efficiency.

[0080] Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating an automatic parameter verification method for tobacco production equipment according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 3 As shown, the automatic parameter verification method for tobacco production equipment includes steps S301 to S315.

[0081] In step S301, in response to the first operation node before tobacco production being triggered, the verification device is instructed to verify the parameters of the tobacco production equipment associated with the first operation node in order to obtain the first verification result.

[0082] In some embodiments, the automatic parameter verification method for the tobacco production equipment is executed by an automatic parameter verification device for the tobacco production equipment, or by a centralized control system including the automatic parameter verification device.

[0083] The first operation node is a target operation node. A target operation node is an operation node bound to a parameter validation event. There are multiple target operation nodes, and the parameters of the tobacco production equipment associated with each target operation node are a subset of the parameters of the tobacco production equipment.

[0084] In some embodiments, the parameters of the tobacco production equipment associated with each target operation node are determined based on the execution frequency of the target operation node, the update frequency of the parameters of the tobacco production equipment, the execution time of the target operation node, and the update time of the parameters of the tobacco production equipment.

[0085] For example, the execution frequency of at least a portion of the target operation nodes is positively correlated with the update frequency of the parameters of the associated tobacco production equipment, and the execution time of at least a portion of the target operation nodes is after the update time of the parameters of the tobacco production equipment.

[0086] For example, before tobacco production, there are multiple target operation nodes, including the first to third operation nodes, and one or more non-target operation nodes. For instance, the first operation node is the shift start node, executed once a day. Parameters of the tobacco production equipment with lower update frequencies are associated with the first operation node. For example, parameters of the tobacco production equipment with lower update frequencies include motor frequency and various equipment control parameters. For instance, the second operation node is the batch task production node, executed multiple times a day. Parameters of the tobacco production equipment with higher update frequencies are associated with the second operation node. For example, parameters of the tobacco production equipment with higher update frequencies include PID manual / automatic status and PID control parameters. For instance, the third operation node is the batch task production success node. This node is executed after the process parameters (or formula parameters) of the tobacco production equipment are updated. Therefore, the third operation node is associated with the process parameters of the tobacco production equipment. For example, process parameters include water ratio and feeding ratio of the loosening and rehydration machine and the feeding machine, hot air temperature, drum temperature of the drying machine, negative pressure, and hot air temperature.

[0087] In step S302, it is determined whether the first verification result indicates that the associated parameter has passed the verification.

[0088] If the first verification result indicates that the associated parameter has passed the verification, proceed directly to step S305; if the first verification result indicates that the associated parameter has failed the verification, proceed to steps S303 and S304, and then proceed to step S305.

[0089] In step S303, the user is shown an error message indicating an abnormality in the first parameter.

[0090] In step S304, the abnormal parameters are modified.

[0091] In this step, abnormal parameters in the parameters associated with the first operation node are modified according to the user's input instructions.

[0092] In some embodiments, prior to step S305, the method further includes: starting the tobacco production equipment according to the user's instructions.

[0093] In step S305, the second operation node is triggered according to the user's operation command.

[0094] The second operation node belongs to the target operation node.

[0095] After step S305, step S306 is executed.

[0096] In step S306, the calibration device is instructed to calibrate the parameters of the tobacco production equipment associated with the second operation node to obtain a second calibration result.

[0097] For example, the second operation node is a batch task creation node. After the user triggers the batch task creation node, the parameters of the tobacco production equipment associated with this operation node are verified to obtain a second verification result.

[0098] In step S307, it is determined whether the second verification result indicates that the associated parameter has passed the verification.

[0099] If the second verification result indicates that the associated parameter has passed the verification, proceed to step S310; if the second verification result indicates that the associated parameter has failed the verification, proceed to steps S308 and S309, and then proceed to step S310.

[0100] In step S308, an abnormality message for the second parameter is displayed to the user.

[0101] In step S309, the abnormal parameters are modified.

[0102] In this step, abnormal parameters in the parameters associated with the second operation node are modified according to the user's input instructions.

[0103] In step S310, the parameters of the tobacco production equipment associated with the third operation node are updated, and the third operation node is automatically triggered after the update is completed.

[0104] The third operation node belongs to the target operation node.

[0105] In some embodiments, the third operation node is the batch task creation success node. Further, in these embodiments, the centralized control system sends a parameter update instruction to the production system, and then the production system instructs the batch server to send batch task information to the programmable controller corresponding to the tobacco production equipment according to the parameter update instruction, thereby updating the parameters of the tobacco production equipment associated with the third operation node. After the update is completed, the batch task creation success node is automatically triggered.

[0106] In step S311, the verification device is instructed to verify the parameters of the tobacco production equipment associated with the third operation node in order to obtain the third verification result.

[0107] In step S312, it is determined whether the third verification result indicates that the associated parameter has passed the verification.

[0108] If the third verification result indicates that the associated parameter has passed the verification, proceed to step S315; if the third verification result indicates that the associated parameter has failed the verification, proceed to steps S313 and S314, and then proceed to step S315.

[0109] In step S313, an abnormal prompt message for the third parameter is displayed to the user.

[0110] In step S314, the abnormal parameters are modified.

[0111] In this step, abnormal parameters in the parameters associated with the third operation node are modified according to the user's input instructions.

[0112] In step S315, the material transport equipment is instructed to transport the materials required for tobacco production.

[0113] For example, after a user triggers the operation node that allows material feeding, the automatic parameter verification device of the tobacco production equipment, or the centralized control system containing the automatic parameter verification device, sends a material transportation instruction to the material transportation equipment to instruct the material transportation equipment to transport the materials required for tobacco production.
