[0020] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects achieved by this invention are:

[0021] 1) Portability. Currently, most position sensors used in cold and hot rolling mills are built into hydraulic cylinders, making disassembly and assembly time-consuming and labor-intensive. Each time a hydraulic cylinder is repaired or a position sensor problem is suspected, it must be connected to a PLC control system and processed through a dedicated control board from manufacturers like ABB before the sensor status can be checked. With this device, personnel can analyze the position sensor signal waveform at the inlet, program it based on field experience, and accurately display the position sensor status, facilitating field use. It is also compatible with sensors from major companies using the MICRO PULSE protocol. It is not limited by foreign technical barriers, allowing for independent control, which is a significant advantage for domestically produced operations.

[0022] 2) Low cost. It is understood that large domestic and international companies implement this function using FPGA and DSP chips, which is costly. However, this device can achieve the same functionality using a common low-end microcontroller and a dedicated real-time operating system (FreeRTOS). It enables high-frequency, fast master-slave communication (500 times / second) between this device and Micro Pulse protocol position sensors, significantly reducing device cost and facilitating widespread adoption.

[0023] 3) Signal accuracy and response speed are guaranteed. This device requires high-frequency, fast master-slave communication (500 times / second) with the position sensor. Through algorithm design, a microcontroller program is written in KEILC. The core is the FreeRTOS real-time operating system, with data reading set as the highest priority task. The capture function of the advanced timer 1 inside the main control MCU is used to capture the pulse period, and mathematical calculations are performed through stored parameters to calculate the real-time displacement, thereby ensuring signal accuracy and response speed.

[0024] 4) Power Supply Compatibility. Foreign manufacturers' professional control boards use DC 24V power, requiring a dedicated power supply. This patented design allows for normal operation using ordinary batteries and is compatible with a wide voltage range, from DC 10V to 26V. Figure 3 As shown, it has a wide range of applications.

[0025] 5) Multiple interfaces: Three types of interface circuits are designed, covering TCP / IP protocol unit, RS232 serial port unit and OLED interface, which can meet the application environment of different interfaces.

[0026] 6) This patent provides a portable device for the position sensor of the MICRO PULSE protocol in cold and hot rolling production lines, which facilitates on-site inspection and maintenance of the sensor by maintenance personnel. It can not only accurately read the data of the MICRO PULSE protocol sensor, but also has network connectivity and can display data information in real time, making it convenient for maintenance personnel to use and greatly improving maintenance efficiency and quality.

[0027] 7) This device, through the interpretation of Micro Pulse protocol sensor data transmission, uniquely employs a common low-end microcontroller + a dedicated real-time operating system (FreeRTOS) to achieve high-frequency, fast master-slave communication (500 times / second) between the device and the Micro Pulse protocol position sensor. It combines Modbus-TCP / IP and Modbus-RTU protocols with the STM32F103C8T6 microcontroller, enabling remote transmission via network interface and serial port (expandable to RS485). Simultaneously, the read displacement data is displayed in real-time on an OLED screen. As a portable device, it makes it possible to inspect and maintain Micro Pulse protocol position sensors in the field. Attached Figure Description

Capacitors C2 and EC3 are connected in parallel between pin 3 of component U2 and GND. Pin 3 of component U2 also outputs a 3.3V regulated power supply through inductor L2.

[0050] In practical applications, the XL1507-5.0 power management chip is used. This high-efficiency, high-voltage step-down DC-DC converter features a wide input voltage range of 4.5V to 40V, a fixed 150kHz switching frequency, and can provide a maximum output current of 3A.

Figure 7 The circuit diagram of the hardware main control chip of the RS232 serial port unit in this device is shown.

[0055] Figure 8 The diagram illustrates the correspondence between the trigger and receive pulses in this device. The three dashed arrows in the diagram are used for separation and graphical transformation; the top represents triggering, and the bottom represents receiving. This diagram is only for qualitative observation of the trigger-receive correspondence and is not for quantitative analysis, therefore no coordinates are provided. The OLED display connects to the main control MCU via a software-simulated IIC protocol interface. The OLED display module provides information assistance for portability, such as... Figure 9 The information shown is a display data diagram of the OLED screen, providing a user-friendly human-computer interaction interface. Of course, the OLED display can be a curved screen. In addition, there are SWD program writing interfaces, MicroPulse protocol sensor interfaces, and OLED driver interfaces, combined with... Figure 11 I will not go into details.

[0056] The parameter storage unit performs read and write operations via the IIC bus interface, see... Figure 10 It provides calibration data for internal program calculations, including component U13. Pins 1-4 and pin 4 of component U13 are all connected to GND. Pin 8 of component U13 is connected to VCC and capacitor C29. The other end of capacitor C29 is connected to GND. Pin 6 of component U13 is connected to VCC via resistor R20, and pin 5 of component U13 is connected to VCC via resistor R21.

[0058] The Micro Pulse pre-processing unit connects to MICRO PULSE protocol sensors via a dedicated Micro Pulse interface and Micro Pulse terminal blocks. See details... Figure 12 , Figure 13 .

[0059] The Micro Pulse pre-processing unit, also known as the differential signal processing unit, is used for differential signal processing. Combined with... Figure 12 , Figure 13 Let's take a look. Figure 12 This is the first Micro Pulse pre-processing circuit for the Micro Pulse protocol input signal of this device, used for differential signal return pulses. The first Micro Pulse pre-processing circuit includes chip U3. Pin 1 of chip U3 is connected to the main control MCU, pins 2 and 3 are connected to GND, pin 6 of chip U3 is connected to resistors R1 and R3 respectively, the other end of resistor R1 is connected to pin 8 of chip U3, and the other end of resistor R3 is connected to the output +Start signal of the Micro Pulse protocol sensor; pin 7 of chip U3 is connected to resistors R2 and R4 respectively, the other end of resistor R2 is connected to pin 5 of chip U3, and the other end of resistor R4 is connected to the output -Start signal of the Micro Pulse protocol sensor; pin 5 of chip U3 is also connected to GND, and pin 8 of chip U3 is also connected to VCC.

[0061] OLED displays are curved screens, which are convenient for displaying data information, such as... Figure 6 This is real-time data captured after the device was put into use.

[0062] like Figure 14 The screenshot shows a portion of the control logic. The microcontroller program was written using KEILC. The core of the program is the FreeRTOS real-time operating system. Data reading is set as the highest priority task. The program uses the capture function of the MCU's internal advanced timer 1 to capture the pulse cycle and performs mathematical calculations using stored parameters to calculate the real-time displacement.

[0063] This device uses reliable components, providing a fundamental guarantee for improved system reliability. For example, the microprocessor used is the STM32F103 MCU, an industrial-grade ARM chip that requires no additional external memory, reducing the need for external components and improving reliability. Furthermore, the processor has a built-in watchdog timer and 64K+20K of in-circuit read / write memory, providing a basic guarantee for improved reliability in subsequent software programming. High-quality ceramic capacitors are used for the bypass capacitors of each integrated circuit to improve the system's anti-interference performance. A DC / DC isolated switching power supply is also used, with tantalum capacitors used for power supply filtering.

[0064] This device uniquely employs a common low-end microcontroller combined with a dedicated real-time operating system (FreeRTOS) to achieve high-frequency, fast master-slave communication (500 times / second) between itself and a Micro Pulse protocol position sensor. The main control MCU embeds the FreeRTOS real-time operating system, setting the task of reading data uploaded from the Micro Pulse sensor as the highest priority. After the task is triggered, the MCU's internal advanced timer 1 captures the pulse trigger cycle, then reads the calibration data stored in the AT24C02, performs mathematical calculations, and converts it into the actual displacement. Other tasks are automatically assigned and processed by the FreeRTOS system.

[0065] Position sensors using the MICRO PULSE protocol are widely used in cold and hot rolling processes. Their advantage lies in high-speed, accurate data transmission. However, their application requires the use of the original manufacturer's proprietary data acquisition modules, making on-site sensor testing and maintenance very inconvenient. This device was developed to address this issue. The working process of this device is as follows: [The text then abruptly shifts to a different topic:] ...combining... Figure 5 Following the MICRO PULSE protocol sensor wiring method, connect the sensor to the external interface of this device. After power-on, the device automatically and periodically sends trigger pulses. Upon receiving the trigger pulse, the MICRO PULSE protocol sensor immediately returns a corresponding displacement pulse. This device detects the returned pulse in real time, calculates the pulse period, calculates the corresponding displacement length, and sends it to the OLED display for real-time display. If remote data transmission is required, data can be collected by connecting to a network port or RS232 serial port unit as needed.
