[0052] The safe operation of belt conveyor systems directly impacts a company's production efficiency. While belt conveyors offer advantages such as high load capacity, large conveying capacity, wide applicability, and suitability for long-distance transportation, in actual production, long transport distances, heavy belt loads, and poor operating conditions can lead to frequent failures, including belt misalignment, belt tearing, belt breakage, belt slippage, and motor overheating and vibration. Belt conveyor system malfunctions disrupt normal production; therefore, timely monitoring of the system's operating status is crucial.

[0053] In related technologies, most methods for obtaining the working status of belt conveyor systems rely on manual inspection, manual correction, and video monitoring. Manual inspection is slow, labor-intensive, and lacks real-time accuracy; manual correction has low automation and is inherently dangerous; and video monitoring can easily miss crucial information. Therefore, these technologies heavily depend on manual labor for obtaining the working status of belt conveyor systems, resulting in low efficiency and poor accuracy.

[0054] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment of the disclosure provides a status monitoring system for a belt conveyor system. The status monitoring system includes a status monitoring device 600 (700) and a sensor group 100. The sensor group 100 includes multiple sensors, and the status monitoring device 600 (700) is communicatively connected to each sensor in the sensor group 100. The multiple sensors in the sensor group 100 can be arranged at corresponding positions in the belt conveyor system to collect status data of the belt conveyor system in multiple dimensions. The status monitoring device 600 (700) receives the status data of multiple dimensions collected by the sensor group 100 and determines the working status of the belt conveyor system based on the status data of multiple dimensions.

[0055] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the belt system includes a drive motor, a reducer, and a belt. The status data of multiple dimensions include two or more of the following: drive motor temperature, reducer temperature, drive motor vibration, reducer vibration, belt running speed, belt tearing degree, belt position offset degree, and belt slippage degree.

[0056] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the sensor group 100 includes temperature sensors 101. There can be multiple temperature sensors 101, which can be arranged on the drive motor and / or the reducer. The temperature sensor 101 located on the drive motor is used to collect the drive motor temperature, and the temperature sensor 101 located on the reducer is used to collect the reducer temperature.

[0057] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the sensor group 100 includes vibration sensors 102. There can be multiple vibration sensors 102, which can be arranged on the drive motor and / or the reducer. The vibration sensor 102 installed on the drive motor is used to collect the vibration amount of the drive motor, and the vibration sensor 102 installed on the reducer is used to collect the vibration amount of the reducer.

[0058] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the sensor group 100 includes a speed sensor 103. There can be multiple speed sensors 103. The speed sensors 103 are used to collect the belt running speed.

[0059] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the sensor group 100 includes a belt tear sensor 104. There can be multiple belt tear sensors 104. The belt tear sensor 104 is used to collect the belt tear degree value.

[0060] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the sensor group 100 includes a belt misalignment sensor 105. There can be multiple belt misalignment sensors 105. The belt misalignment sensor 105 is used to collect the value of the belt position deviation.

[0061] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the sensor group 100 includes a belt slippage sensor 106. There can be multiple belt slippage sensors 106. The belt slippage sensor 106 is used to collect the belt slippage degree value.

[0062] In conjunction with the condition monitoring device for belt systems provided in the embodiments of this disclosure, the embodiments of this disclosure also provide a condition monitoring method for belt systems. This condition monitoring method for belt systems can be executed by the condition monitoring device (hereinafter referred to as the device). Figure 3 As shown, the condition monitoring method for a belt conveyor system includes the following steps:

[0063] S301, the device uses a sensor array to acquire multi-dimensional status data of the belt system.

[0064] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the belt system includes a drive motor, a reducer, and a belt. The status data of multiple dimensions include two or more of the following: drive motor temperature, reducer temperature, drive motor vibration, reducer vibration, belt running speed, belt tearing degree, belt position offset degree, and belt slippage degree.

[0065] S302, the device determines the comparison result between the state data of each dimension and the corresponding data threshold.

[0066] In the embodiments of this disclosure, data thresholds can be set for the state data of each dimension. For example, a first temperature threshold is set for the drive motor temperature, a second temperature threshold is set for the reducer temperature, a first vibration threshold is set for the drive motor vibration, a second vibration threshold is set for the reducer vibration, a running speed threshold is set for the belt running speed, a tearing degree threshold is set for the belt tearing degree, an offset degree threshold is set for the belt position offset degree, and a slippage degree threshold is set for the belt slippage degree.

[0067] S303, when the comparison results of the status data in one or more dimensions do not meet the safety conditions, the working status of the belt system is determined to be abnormal.

[0068] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the comparison result of the state data for each dimension is used to indicate the relationship between the state data of that dimension and the corresponding data threshold. Here, when the comparison result of the state data for one dimension indicates that the state data of that dimension is greater than the corresponding data threshold, it is determined that the comparison result of the state data for that dimension does not meet the safety conditions. When the comparison results of the state data for one or more dimensions do not meet the safety conditions, it is determined that the working state of the belt system is abnormal.

[0069] In this embodiment of the disclosure, for each dimension of state data, an average value of the state data for that dimension can be calculated, and this average value can be compared with a corresponding data threshold. The comparison result of the average value of the state data for that dimension and the corresponding data threshold is taken as the comparison result of the state data for that dimension and the corresponding data threshold.

[0070] In this embodiment of the disclosure, for each dimension of state data, the maximum value of the state data in that dimension can be calculated, and this maximum value can be compared with the corresponding data threshold. The comparison result of the maximum value of the state data in that dimension with the corresponding data threshold is taken as the comparison result of the state data of that dimension with the corresponding data threshold.

[0071] S304, when the comparison results of each state data meet the safety conditions, the device inputs the state data of multiple dimensions into the pre-trained state evaluation model.

[0072] As mentioned earlier, the comparison results of the state data for each dimension are used to indicate the relationship between the state data of that dimension and the corresponding data threshold. Here, when the comparison results of the state data for a dimension indicate that the state data of that dimension is not greater than the corresponding data threshold, it is determined that the comparison results of the state data for that dimension meet the safety conditions. When the comparison results of all state data meet the safety conditions, the state data of multiple dimensions are input into the pre-trained state evaluation model.

[0073] S305, the device uses a condition evaluation model to determine the level type of the working condition of the belt system.

[0074] In this embodiment of the disclosure, multiple different level types can be preset, such as emergency state, abnormal state, and relatively normal state. Specifically, the state evaluation model can determine the classification probability based on state data from multiple dimensions, and determine the level type of the belt system's working state according to the classification probability. For example, when the classification probability is in the range of (0.9, 1), the working state of the belt system is determined to be an emergency state; when the classification probability is in the range of (0.7, 0.9), the working state of the belt system is determined to be an abnormal state; and when the classification probability is in the range of (0.5, 0.7), the working state of the belt system is determined to be a relatively normal state.

[0075] The method for monitoring the status of a belt conveyor system provided in this disclosure utilizes a sensor array to acquire multi-dimensional status data of the belt conveyor system in real time. By comparing the real-time acquired multi-dimensional status data with corresponding data thresholds, it quickly determines whether the operating status of the belt conveyor system is abnormal, thus enabling timely detection of abnormal problems. If an abnormality is not determined, the multi-dimensional status data can be further input into a pre-trained status evaluation model. The model determines the level of the belt conveyor system's operating status, providing a more accurate understanding of the current operating status and facilitating proactive countermeasures. Therefore, this method can efficiently acquire the operating status of the belt conveyor system, promptly detect abnormal problems, and provide a more accurate understanding of its current operating status, achieving refined management of the belt conveyor system's status.

[0076] In some embodiments, inputting state data of multiple dimensions into a pre-trained state evaluation model includes: performing regularization and alignment processing on the state data of each dimension; and inputting the data processing results of the state data of multiple dimensions into the pre-trained state evaluation model.

[0077] Combination Figure 4 As shown in the embodiments of this disclosure, another method for monitoring the condition of a belt system is provided, including the following steps:

[0078] S401, the device uses a sensor array to acquire multi-dimensional status data of the belt system.

[0079] S402, the device determines the comparison result between the state data of each dimension and the corresponding data threshold.

[0080] S403, if the comparison results of the status data in one or more dimensions do not meet the safety conditions, the working status of the belt system is determined to be abnormal.

[0081] S404, when the comparison results of each state data meet the safety conditions, the device performs regularization and alignment processing on the state data of each dimension.

[0082] As mentioned earlier, the comparison results of the state data for each dimension are used to indicate the relationship between the state data of that dimension and the corresponding data threshold. Here, when the comparison result of the state data for a dimension indicates that the state data of that dimension is not greater than the corresponding data threshold, it is determined that the comparison result of the state data for that dimension meets the safety conditions. When the comparison results of all state data meet the safety conditions, the state data of each dimension is subjected to regularization and alignment processing.

[0083] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the regularization process for state data in one dimension includes: determining the maximum and minimum data in the state data of that dimension, calculating a first difference between the maximum and minimum data; for each state data in that dimension, calculating a second difference between the state data and the minimum data, and using the ratio of the second difference to the first difference as the regularization result for each state data.

[0084] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the regularization processing for a state data in one dimension can be calculated using the following formula 1:

[0085]

[0086] In Formula 1, X normal X represents the regularization result of state data in one dimension. i X represents a state data point in one dimension. max X represents the maximum value in the state data of one dimension. min This represents the minimum value in the state data of one dimension. It's understandable that after regularization of the state data in each dimension, the regularization result for each state data point is between 0 and 1.

[0087] In some embodiments, the alignment process for state data in one dimension includes: identifying the channel with the highest sampling frequency in that dimension, determining the maximum data in the state data of the channel with the highest sampling frequency; using the regularization result of the maximum data of the channel with the highest sampling frequency as an alignment standard, and adjusting the regularization results of the state data of other channels in that dimension based on the alignment standard.

[0088] In some embodiments, after adjusting the regularization results of the state data of other channels in this dimension based on the alignment criterion, blank positions may be generated in other channels. In this case, the regularization results of the state data that were previously located in the blank positions in the channel can be used to fill the blank positions.

[0089] S405, the device inputs the data processing results of the state data in multiple dimensions into the pre-trained state evaluation model.

[0090] In some embodiments, inputting the data processing results of state data in multiple dimensions into a pre-trained state evaluation model includes: truncating the data processing results of state data in each dimension into data units of a specified length, each data unit including the regularization results of state data in a specified number of channels of the corresponding dimension; and inputting multiple data units into the pre-trained state evaluation model. For example, a data unit can be represented as I0(m0, n0), where m0 is a specified length and n0 is a specified number.

[0091] S406, the device uses a condition evaluation model to determine the level type of the working condition of the belt system.

[0092] In this embodiment of the disclosure, multiple different level types can be preset, such as emergency state, abnormal state, and relatively normal state. Specifically, the state evaluation model can determine the classification probability based on the data processing results of state data from multiple dimensions, and determine the level type of the belt system's working state according to the classification probability. For example, when the classification probability is in the range of (0.9, 1), the working state of the belt system is determined to be an emergency state; when the classification probability is in the range of (0.7, 0.9), the working state of the belt system is determined to be an abnormal state; and when the classification probability is in the range of (0.5, 0.7), the working state of the belt system is determined to be a relatively normal state.

[0093] In this embodiment, the state evaluation model can be a deep neural network, such as a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network or a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). The state evaluation model is trained based on raw data, a set of positive samples, and a set of negative samples. The raw data consists of multi-dimensional state data collected by the sensor group when the belt conveyor system is operating normally. The set of positive samples is obtained by data augmentation of the raw data. The set of negative samples consists of multi-dimensional state data collected by the sensor group when the belt conveyor system is operating abnormally.

[0094] In this embodiment of the disclosure, there are multiple raw data sets, which can be represented as I(m,n), where m is the length of the raw data and n is the number of channels in the raw data. Combined with... Figure 5 As shown, a positive sample set is formed by performing data augmentation on multiple original datasets (such as shuffling the original data along the time dimension and adding random noise). The positive samples in the positive sample set can be represented as I′1(m,n), I′2(m,n), ..., I′ k (m,n). Furthermore, the sensor array collects multi-dimensional state data of the belt system when its operating state is abnormal. The set of state data collected under these conditions is considered a negative sample set, where each negative sample can be represented as N1(m,n), N2(m,n), ..., N... K (m,n).

[0095] Combination Figure 5As shown, sample pairs are constructed using the original data, a set of positive samples, and a set of negative samples. Each sample pair consists of one original data point, one positive sample, and one negative sample. These sample pairs are then input into the state evaluation model for training. The training process for the state evaluation model aims to maximize the probability of positive sample pairs (sample pairs with similarity) and minimize the probability of negative sample pairs (sample pairs with different categories). Specifically, the loss functions used in the training process of the state evaluation model include the contrastive loss function (or information entropy loss function) and the cross-entropy loss function to achieve the above objectives.

[0096] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the expression for the comparison loss function is shown in Formula 2:

[0097]

[0098] In Equation 2, L is the function value of the contrastive loss function, and z i z is the feature representation of the i-th original data. i+ It is its positive sample, z i-j It is a negative sample, sim(z) i ,z i+ ) is z i and z i+ Similarity measures between them (e.g., cosine similarity), sim((z i ,z i-j ) is z i and z i-j The similarity measure between them (e.g., cosine similarity), N is the number of channels in the data, k is the number of sample pairs, and τ is a temperature parameter used to control the shape of the contrastive loss function.

[0099] In this embodiment of the disclosure, supervised training of the state evaluation model is achieved by constraining the difference between the data and the label values ​​using the cross-entropy loss function. The expression of the cross-entropy loss function is shown in Equation 3:

[0100]

[0101] In Formula 3, It is the value of the cross-entropy loss function. To predict the label, y i This is a real label.

[0102] In some embodiments, when the operating state of the belt system is determined to be an emergency state, the state data for each dimension is narrowed down to its corresponding data threshold, and then the comparison result between the state data for each dimension and the corresponding narrowed data threshold is determined. Here, the comparison result of the state data for each dimension is used to indicate the magnitude relationship between the state data for that dimension and the corresponding narrowed data threshold. Based on the comparison results of the state data for each dimension, the target dimension whose state data is greater than the corresponding narrowed data threshold is determined, and the maintenance items of the belt system are located based on the target dimension. For example, if the temperature of the drive motor is greater than the corresponding narrowed first temperature threshold, the drive motor can be identified as a maintenance item of the belt system.

[0103] In this embodiment of the disclosure, for each dimension of state data, an average value of the state data for that dimension can be calculated, and this average value is compared with the corresponding reduced data threshold. The comparison result of the average value of the state data for that dimension and the corresponding reduced data threshold is taken as the comparison result of the state data for that dimension and the corresponding reduced data threshold.

[0104] In this embodiment of the disclosure, for each dimension of state data, the maximum value of the state data in that dimension can be calculated, and this maximum value is compared with the corresponding reduced data threshold. The comparison result of the maximum value of the state data in that dimension and the corresponding reduced data threshold is taken as the comparison result of the state data of that dimension and the corresponding reduced data threshold.

[0105] In some embodiments, when the working state of the belt conveyor system is determined to be an emergency state, a reduction ratio is determined based on the classification probability output by the state evaluation model. The state data for each dimension and its corresponding data threshold are then reduced based on this reduction ratio. Here, the reduction ratio is a positive number less than 1. The reduction ratio is negatively correlated with the classification probability, and the reduced data threshold is positively correlated with the reduction ratio. In other words, the smaller the classification probability, the larger the reduction ratio, and the larger the reduced data threshold.

[0106] Combination Figure 6 As shown in the figure, this disclosure provides a status monitoring device 600 for a belt system. The status monitoring device 600 includes a data acquisition module 601, a data comparison module 602, a first status evaluation module 603, and a second status evaluation module 604.

[0107] The data acquisition module 601 is configured to acquire multi-dimensional status data of the belt system using a group of sensors.

[0108] The data comparison module 602 is configured to determine the comparison results between the state data of each dimension and the corresponding data threshold.

[0109] The first state evaluation module 603 is configured to determine that the working state of the belt system is abnormal when the comparison results of state data in one or more dimensions do not meet the safety conditions.

[0110] The second state evaluation module 604 is configured to input state data of multiple dimensions into a pre-trained state evaluation model when the comparison results of each state data meet the safety conditions, and use the state evaluation model to determine the level type of the working state of the belt system.

[0111] The condition monitoring device for belt conveyor systems provided in this disclosure utilizes a sensor array to acquire multi-dimensional condition data of the belt conveyor system in real time. By comparing the real-time acquired multi-dimensional condition data with corresponding data thresholds, it quickly determines whether the operating state of the belt conveyor system is abnormal, thus enabling timely detection of abnormal problems. If an abnormality is not determined, the multi-dimensional condition data can be further input into a pre-trained condition evaluation model. The model determines the level of the belt conveyor system's operating state, providing a more accurate understanding of its current state and facilitating proactive countermeasures. Therefore, this method efficiently acquires the operating state of the belt conveyor system, promptly detects abnormal problems, and provides a more accurate understanding of its current operating state, achieving refined management of the belt conveyor system's condition.

[0112] In some embodiments, the multi-dimensional state data includes drive motor temperature, and / or reducer temperature, and / or drive motor vibration, and / or reducer vibration, and / or belt running speed, and / or belt tearing degree, and / or belt position offset degree, and / or belt slippage degree.

[0114] The state data for each dimension is regularized and aligned.

[0115] The data processing results of state data from multiple dimensions are input into a pre-trained state evaluation model.

[0116] In some embodiments, regularization processing for state data in one dimension includes:

[0117] Determine the maximum and minimum values ​​in the state data for this dimension, and calculate the first difference between the maximum and minimum values;

[0118] For each state data in this dimension, calculate the second difference between that state data and the minimum data, and use the ratio of the second difference to the first difference as the regularization result for each state data.

[0119] In some embodiments, alignment processing for state data in one dimension includes:

[0120] Identify the channel with the highest sampling frequency in this dimension, and determine the maximum data in the state data of the channel with the highest sampling frequency;

[0121] The regularization result of the maximum data of the channel with the highest sampling frequency is used as the alignment standard, and the regularization results of the state data of other channels in this dimension are adjusted based on this alignment standard.

[0122] In some embodiments, the second state evaluation module 604 is configured to:

[0123] The data processing results of the state data in each dimension are truncated into data units of a specified length. Each data unit includes the regularization results of the state data of a specified number of channels in the corresponding dimension.

[0124] Multiple data units are input into a pre-trained state evaluation model.

[0125] In some embodiments, the state evaluation model is trained based on raw data, a positive sample set, and a negative sample set; the raw data is multi-dimensional state data collected by the sensor group when the belt system is in normal working condition, the positive sample set is obtained by data augmentation of the raw data, and the negative sample set is multi-dimensional state data collected by the sensor group when the belt system is in abnormal working condition.

[0126] In some embodiments, the loss functions used in the training process of the state evaluation model include the contrastive loss function and the cross-entropy loss function.
