[0002] Valves play an important role in the process of gas transmission stations. There are many manual valves in gas transmission stations. There are gearboxes on the manual valves. Gearboxes are important components for opening and closing valves. In order to ensure the performance of the gearbox, the gearbox needs to be filled with grease. Every spring and autumn inspection, the gearbox needs to be opened to check the grease performance. It is found that some grease has been aged for a long time, affecting the normal use of the gearbox. Some grease has normal performance. It takes a long time to open and restore the gearbox, and the work efficiency is not high.

[0003] Currently, the inspection method for manual valve gearbox grease takes a long time, and there is a lack of effective means to monitor the regular performance of the grease. Summary of the invention

[0004] The invention provides a valve gear box grease online monitoring device and monitoring method, aiming to solve the problems in the prior art.

[0005] The technical solution of the present invention to solve the above technical problems is as follows:

The monitoring module is used to be installed in the gearbox, is communicatively connected with the station control system, and is used to monitor the parameters of the grease in the gearbox.

[0007] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: during the monitoring process, the monitoring module is used to monitor the parameters of the grease in the gear box in real time and send them to the station control system; the station control system receives the corresponding parameters and performs judgment and analysis. If the relevant parameters are abnormal, the station control system will alarm so that the operating personnel can handle them in time to ensure the normal operation of the gear box.

[0008] The present invention has a simple structure and a reasonable design, can realize real-time monitoring of grease-related parameters in a valve gear box, avoids frequent opening of the valve gear box, has high efficiency, and can ensure normal use of the gear box.

[0009] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can also be improved as follows.

[0010] Furthermore, it also includes a data transmission module, and the monitoring module is communicatively connected with the station control system through the data transmission module.

[0011] The beneficial effect of adopting the above further scheme is simple structure and reasonable design. The data transmission module is used to send the relevant parameters of the grease in the gear box monitored by the monitoring module to the station control system so that the station control system can perform subsequent analysis and judgment.

[0012] Furthermore, the data transmission module is connected to the monitoring module and the station control system via cables respectively.

[0018] Furthermore, the grease parameters monitored by the monitoring module include viscosity.

[0019] The beneficial effect of adopting the above further scheme is that it is more reasonable to select the viscosity of the grease as the monitoring object. The greater the viscosity of the grease is and the higher the viscosity threshold is, the more necessary it is to replace the grease.

[0020] Furthermore, the grease parameters monitored by the monitoring module also include water resistance.

[0021] The beneficial effect of adopting the above further scheme is that it is more reasonable to select the water resistance of the grease as the monitoring object.

[0022] Furthermore, the station control system includes a processing module and an alarm module. The processing module is communicatively connected to the monitoring module, and the alarm module is communicatively connected to the processing module.

[0023] The beneficial effect of adopting the above further scheme is that during the monitoring process, the monitoring module is used to monitor the parameters of the grease in the gear box in real time and send them to the processing module; the processing module receives the corresponding parameters and performs judgment and analysis. If the relevant parameters are abnormal, the processing module sends an alarm instruction to the alarm, and the alarm sounds an alarm so that the operating personnel can deal with it in time to ensure the normal operation of the gear box.

[0024] Furthermore, the alarm module is an audible and visual alarm.

[0033] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with embodiments.

[0034] Example 1

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a valve gearbox grease online monitoring device, including a monitoring module and a station control system. The monitoring module is used to be installed in the gearbox, is communicated with the station control system, and is used to monitor the parameters of the grease in the gearbox.

[0036] During the monitoring process, the monitoring module is used to monitor the parameters of the grease in the gearbox in real time and send them to the station control system; the station control system receives the corresponding parameters and makes judgments and analyses them. If the relevant parameters are abnormal, the station control system will give an alarm so that the operating personnel can handle them in time to ensure the normal operation of the gearbox.

[0037] In the traditional solution, operators need to regularly disassemble the valve gearbox to check the specific condition of the grease inside it. This method requires frequent disassembly of the gearbox, and after the gearbox is disassembled, the grease may meet the operating requirements and there is no need to replace the grease, which is cumbersome and inefficient.

[0038] This embodiment has a simple structure and reasonable design, and can realize real-time monitoring of grease-related parameters in the valve gear box, avoid frequent opening of the valve gear box, has high efficiency, and can ensure the normal use of the gear box.

The data transmission module is used to send the relevant parameters of the grease in the gear box monitored by the monitoring module to the station control system so that the station control system can perform subsequent analysis and judgment.

[0042] It should be noted that the above-mentioned data transmission module adopts the existing technology, and its specific structure and principle will not be described in detail here.

[0054] It should be noted that the above-mentioned intelligent grease performance detector adopts existing technology, and its specific structure and principle will not be described in detail here.

[0055] Example 6

[0056] On the basis of the above embodiments, in this embodiment, the grease parameters monitored by the monitoring module include viscosity.

[0057] It is more reasonable to choose the viscosity of grease as the monitoring object. The greater the viscosity of the grease and the higher the viscosity threshold, the more necessary it is to replace the grease.

[0061] Based on the above scheme, as long as at least one of the viscosity and water resistance of the grease does not meet the requirements, the grease in the gearbox needs to be replaced.
