Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the fields of marketing and power distribution automation operation and maintenance technology, and in particular to an automated operation and maintenance method based on the integration of operation and maintenance. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, with the continuous development of the Internet of Things (IoT) in power distribution, the integration of marketing and distribution has become a significant trend in the power industry, especially in the pursuit of more efficient, reliable, and customer-friendly power supply services. The integration of marketing and distribution refers to the consolidation of the management and operation of power marketing (operation) and power distribution (distribution). By integrating marketing and distribution systems, data and resource sharing can be achieved, decision-making processes can be optimized, and redundant work can be reduced, thereby improving overall operational efficiency.

[0003] However, due to developmental issues, the operation and maintenance of marketing and power distribution are carried out independently, and the processes are relatively complex. There is no operation and maintenance method that can simultaneously handle both business scenarios. This forces maintenance personnel to use different maintenance equipment and deploy different micro-applications in different transformer areas to achieve different application scenarios, greatly increasing the difficulty of operation and maintenance.

[0004] Currently, the number of integrated terminals implemented is large and the coverage area is wide. The work of debugging before the equipment is put into operation, upgrading and maintaining after the equipment is put into operation, and troubleshooting are complicated and have a high technical threshold, which has caused great difficulties for operation and maintenance personnel. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of this, the purpose of this invention is to provide an automated operation and maintenance method based on the integration of marketing and power distribution, which automatically identifies the business type and achieves the ability to operate and maintain marketing business and power distribution business simultaneously.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: an automated operation and maintenance method based on integrated operation and maintenance, comprising the following steps:

[0007] Step 1: Operation and maintenance preparation, and establishment of an operation and maintenance model;

[0008] Step 2: Open the handheld app, search for Bluetooth signals, and establish a Bluetooth connection with the converged terminal;

[0009] Step 3: Based on the operation and maintenance model established in Step 1, the handheld device begins to perform operation and maintenance operations, which involve power distribution and marketing business;

[0010] Step 4: If conducting marketing business, send a 698 message; if conducting power distribution business, send a power distribution Bluetooth protocol message.

[0011] Step 5: After the converged terminal receives the message, a Bluetooth management app is added to the existing program. All messages are preprocessed by the Bluetooth management app first.

[0012] Step 6: The Bluetooth management app distinguishes between power distribution and marketing services based on the protocol type of the sent message, and then forwards the data to the MQTT data center according to the service type.

[0013] Step 7: Both the power distribution business app and the marketing business app subscribe to the corresponding topics. After receiving the message, they process it accordingly and return an MQTT message.

[0014] Step 8: The Bluetooth management app subscribes to the MQTT topic, then assembles the packet and sends the message to the handheld device;

[0015] Step 9: After receiving the message, the handheld device analyzes whether it is a marketing or power distribution business, and forwards the message to the corresponding processing module.

[0016] Step 10: Continue with the next model from Step 3 to perform maintenance operations until all maintenance operations are completed.

[0017] In a preferred embodiment, the operation and maintenance model includes marketing business parameters, power distribution business parameters, marketing business commissioning information, power distribution business commissioning information, marketing business encryption information, and power distribution business encryption information.

[0018] In a preferred embodiment, in step 9, if it is a marketing transaction, it is forwarded to the marketing transaction app, and the marketing transaction app processes the marketing transaction.

[0019] In a preferred embodiment, in step 9, if it is a power distribution service, it is forwarded to the power distribution service app, and the power distribution service app processes the power distribution service.

[0020] In a preferred embodiment, the overall software architecture of the handheld device is as follows: firstly, the Bluetooth driver layer drives the Bluetooth device to work, and the Bluetooth service management layer distinguishes the services.

[0021] In a preferred embodiment, the Bluetooth service management layer divides the service into power distribution service and marketing service, forwards data to the corresponding marketing service or power distribution service, and the operation and maintenance model is the corresponding operation and maintenance content. The handheld device operates and maintains the converged terminal according to the operation and maintenance model.

[0022] In a preferred embodiment, the Bluetooth operation and maintenance process inside the converged terminal is as follows: First, the converged terminal has a built-in Bluetooth communication module. When the converged terminal receives a message, the Bluetooth management app first preprocesses the data, distinguishes it into marketing business and power distribution business, and then packages the data into MQTT messages. The data is forwarded to the MQTT data center. The marketing business app and the power distribution business app subscribe to their corresponding topics, process the messages after receiving them, and forward the processing results to the data center. The Bluetooth management app subscribes to the corresponding topics and forwards the messages to the handheld device.

[0023] In a preferred embodiment, all MQTT messages are forwarded to the MQTT data center, which serves as the data storage center.

[0024] Compared with existing technologies, this invention has the following advantages: The method provided by this invention is a fully automated process that requires no human intervention, completing the operation and maintenance of both marketing and power distribution businesses. The key point is that by using middleware forwarding and MQTT message subscription and publish / subscribe, a unified operation and maintenance method for integrated marketing and power distribution is achieved without altering the original procedures, significantly improving operation and maintenance efficiency at minimal cost.

[0030] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0031] It should be noted that the following detailed descriptions are illustrative and intended to provide further explanation of this application. Unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application pertains.

[0032] It should be noted that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular implementations only and is not intended to limit the exemplary implementations according to this application; as used herein, the singular form is intended to include the plural form as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise; furthermore, it should be understood that when the terms “comprising” and / or “including” are used in this specification, they indicate the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components and / or combinations thereof.

[0033] An automated operation and maintenance method based on integrated operation and maintenance services, referenced Figure 1-5 This includes the following steps:

[0034] Step 1: Operation and Maintenance Preparation: Establish an operation and maintenance model, including marketing business parameters, power distribution business parameters, marketing business commissioning information, power distribution business commissioning information, marketing business encrypted information, power distribution business encrypted information, etc. This part is the automatic commissioning preparation stage.

[0035] Setup 2: Open the handheld app, search for Bluetooth signals, and establish a Bluetooth connection with the terminal.

[0036] Step 3: Based on the model established in Step 1, the handheld device begins to perform operation and maintenance, involving various power distribution and marketing businesses.

[0037] Step 4: When it is a marketing business, send a 698 message (transparent transmission); when it is a power distribution business, send the power distribution Bluetooth protocol.

[0038] Step 5: After the terminal receives the message, we will add a Bluetooth management app to the existing program. All messages will be preprocessed by the Bluetooth management app first.

[0039] Step 6: The Bluetooth management app distinguishes between power distribution and marketing services based on the protocol type of the sent messages, and then forwards the data to the MQTT data center according to the service type; all MQTT messages are forwarded to the data center as the data storage center.

[0040] Step 7: Both the power distribution business app and the marketing business app subscribe to the corresponding topics. When they receive a message, they will process it accordingly and return an MQTT message.

[0041] Step 8: The Bluetooth management app subscribes to these MQTT topics, then assembles the packets and sends the messages to the handheld device.

[0042] Step 9: After receiving the message, the handheld device will analyze whether it is a marketing business (698 pass-through) or a power distribution business (power distribution Bluetooth protocol) and forward the message to the corresponding processing module; the marketing business is forwarded to the marketing app, which will process the marketing business; the power distribution business is forwarded to the power distribution business app, which will process the business.

[0043] Step 10: Continue with the next model from Step 3 to perform maintenance operations until all maintenance operations are completed.

[0044] refer to Figure 5The handheld device, based on the model configured in the first step, reads the operation and maintenance model and begins the operation and maintenance process. The first step reads the "app installation and uninstallation" business model and performs operation and maintenance according to the specific content of the business model: uninstalling the old app and installing the new app. After the first model is executed successfully, the "container installation and uninstallation" model operation is performed, which involves installing the container, configuring parameters, and running the container. As shown in the figure, after executing the operations one by one, the operation and maintenance ends.

[0045] like Figure 1 The diagram shows a network structure of the device, which mainly includes: a handheld device (with Bluetooth connectivity), a converged terminal, multiple electricity meters, residual current devices (RCDs), energy storage units (LTUs), capacitors, etc. The handheld device communicates with the converged terminal via Bluetooth, and the converged terminal connects to the end devices via carrier wave, RS-485, and other communication methods to collect and control data from the end devices, such as electricity meters, RCDs, LTUs, and capacitors. This is the framework of the entire application scenario, and its main purpose is to monitor the converged terminal and end devices through the handheld device to achieve various operational and maintenance effects.

[0046] like Figure 2 As shown, the overall software architecture of the handheld device for operation and maintenance firstly drives the Bluetooth device to work through the Bluetooth driver layer. The Bluetooth service management layer distinguishes the services into power distribution services and marketing services. Data is forwarded to the corresponding marketing service or power distribution service. The operation and maintenance model is the corresponding operation and maintenance content. The handheld device operates and maintains the terminal according to the operation and maintenance model.

[0047] like Figure 3 As shown, this is the Bluetooth operation and maintenance process inside the converged terminal. The operation and maintenance handheld app interacts with the Bluetooth management app inside the converged terminal via Bluetooth. First, the converged terminal has a built-in Bluetooth communication module. When the converged terminal receives a message, the Bluetooth management app first preprocesses the data, distinguishing it into marketing business and power distribution business, and then packages the data into MQTT messages. The data is forwarded to the data center. The marketing business app and the power distribution business app subscribe to their corresponding topics, process the messages they receive, and forward the processing results to the data center. The Bluetooth management app subscribes to the corresponding topic and forwards the message to the handheld device.

[0048] This invention, without altering existing procedures, adds a Bluetooth management app and data center subscription and forwarding capabilities to achieve integrated operation and maintenance scenarios, simplifying the entire operation and maintenance process. It can simultaneously perform operation and maintenance of both marketing and power distribution services, while also being compatible with the maintenance of older terminals, significantly improving operational efficiency.
