During the inspection process, the inspection robot collects various data of the elevator, records and stores the collected data, and generates an inspection report.

[0067] See also Figure 2 , a schematic diagram of a second embodiment of an elevator intelligent inspection method provided by an embodiment of the present invention, the method comprising:

[0068] Step 201: Use a median filtering method to smooth the data in the elevator data set, remove outliers and noise data, and normalize the smoothed data to obtain a new elevator data set;

[0069] Step 202: Perform principal component analysis on the data in the new elevator data set to extract the main features, reduce the data dimension, and determine the focus direction of the maintenance items based on the results of the principal component analysis;

[0070] Step 203: using a clustering algorithm to classify the data in the new elevator data set after dimensionality reduction, identifying different types of elevator operating states and failure modes, and generating automatic detection results of elevator components according to the clustering results;

[0071] Step 204: Based on the results of principal component analysis and cluster analysis, determine the maintenance items of the elevator, evaluate the importance and urgency of each maintenance item, determine the priority, sort the maintenance items according to the priority, and generate service data.

[0072] In this embodiment, Z-Score standardization is used to process the data in the new elevator data set to obtain standardized data; the covariance matrix of the standardized data is calculated to obtain the eigenvalues ​​and eigenvectors of the covariance matrix, the eigenvectors are sorted according to the size of the eigenvalues, and the eigenvectors corresponding to the first n eigenvalues ​​are selected to form the principal components; the data in the new elevator data set is projected onto the principal components to obtain new data after dimensionality reduction, and the focus direction of the maintenance items is determined according to the results of the principal component analysis.

[0073] In this embodiment, the first cluster center is randomly selected from the data in the new elevator data set after dimensionality reduction, and the shortest distance sum between the first cluster center and the data in the new elevator data set is obtained through iterative calculation to establish a distance set; the distance set is normalized, all distance sums in the distance set are calculated, and Laplace noise is added to obtain the shortest distance sum after the noise is added; a seed cluster center is selected within the normalized range of the data in the new elevator data set after dimensionality reduction, and the shortest distance between the data and the cluster center is calculated cyclically until the selection of the cluster center is completed; based on the obtained shortest distance set and the selection of the cluster center, the data corresponding to the shortest distance set is divided into the cluster center to obtain the data category; the mean of the data category is calculated, and noise is added to the calculation result, and the result is used as the new data center point, and it is repeated until the cluster center no longer changes or the preset number of iterations is reached, and the data clustering is completed; according to the clustering results, different types of elevator operation status and fault mode are identified, including at least normal operation class, minor fault class, and serious fault class; for each cluster, the elevator data in the class is analyzed, the operation status of each component is determined, and the automatic detection result of the elevator component is generated.

[0074] The present invention collects usage data and electrical status data of each component, analyzes the health status of each component, and combines relevant external equipment such as cameras to obtain the internal and external conditions of the elevator. After system analysis, the system issues tasks to inspection robots, inspects the elevator according to the preset task methods and trajectories, and outputs the final inspection report in the system; combined with the detection of big data and the user's tasks, automatic inspection tasks are issued.

[0075] Based on big data technology, the system automatically inspects elevator conditions: the system collects elevator operation data, status data, and fault data, performs in-depth analysis and calculations through the big data platform, generates automatic inspection results for maintenance items, elevator components, etc., and provides data services for robot inspections;

[0076] 1) Generate the operation status of the elevator equipment, including the opening and closing status of the elevator door, the operation status of the control panel and buttons, the start and stop status of the elevator, the number of operations, and the waiting time for the elevator;

[0077] 2) The internal safety of the elevator, including car lighting, fans, alarm devices, intercom systems, maintenance switches, stop devices, and fire switches;

[0078] 3) External safety of the elevator, including elevator doors, pit environment, shaft lighting, machine room environment, overloading, uncivilized elevator riding, etc.

[0079] Set corresponding functions for each maintenance task to form a function library of the inspection robot. For example, for the lighting anomaly detection task, move from point A to point B, enter the elevator, and use the camera to judge the light on the top of the car to see if the lighting is normal.

[0080] Combined with the system's analysis of the elevator's health status and preset task requirements, each elevator has different inspection tasks and its own task combination.

[0081] The intelligent edge devices of elevators can share computing power and computing power models, deploy part of the robot's intelligence at the edge, and continuously improve the robot's intelligence through collaboration and continuous training. At the same time, edge computing can also support real-time multi-machine collaboration, support real-time knowledge graph extraction, understanding and decision-making, improve the robot's intelligence, and enhance data security and privacy protection.

[0082] Group task planning:

[0083] For multiple elevators, in order to improve the inspection efficiency, multiple robots need to be arranged for inspection;

[0084] According to the results of the 1 big data inspection, we can know the status of each component of the elevator, such as the buttons of the car and each floor button. We only need to assign the floors with possible problems to the robot for inspection to achieve on-demand inspection.

[0085] After the robot completes each task module, it will save the parameters and completion status to the large model system for analysis to predict the time required to complete each task;

[0086] According to 1) and 2), we can get the task objectives that need to be inspected for each elevator and each floor lobby, calculate the time required for the overall task, and then plan the inspection routes of each robot based on the location of the elevator and the robot's movement trajectory, and then break it down into individual tasks and assign them to the robot;

[0087] Relevant collaborative tasks are also simultaneously sent to each intelligent edge device to cooperate with the robot to complete the inspection tasks.

[0088] Based on the analysis of the environment and historical data, the large model is guided to generate task planning that matches the environment. Then, through the multi-level decomposition task planning method, the task is decomposed according to the target level, task level and behavior level to enhance the task planning ability of the large model. Through continuous learning, the task planning can be further improved and optimized.

[0089] Inspection task function:

[0090] Is there any abnormal vibration or noise when the drive mainframe is running?

[0091] Check the trajectory information and electrical condition of the host to see if there are any abnormalities. At the same time, the robot carries a vibration sensor to collect and analyze whether there are any abnormal vibrations or sounds when the elevator is running.

[0092] Are the alarm device and intercom system in the car working properly?

[0093] The system analyzes the communication status and self-check status of the intercom equipment on that day to see if there are any abnormalities. The robot activates the alarm button and communicates with the monitoring center through recording to see if the alarm function is normal.

[0094] Is the car door anti-collision protection device function effective (safety touch panel, light curtain, photoelectric, etc.)

[0095] Regularly judge the action status of the button, and judge that the action times of the light curtain, safety touch panel, photoelectric, etc. are greater than the preset value, which is normal. The robot uses tentacles to block the door from closing, and records the situation of the car door anti-collision protection device by video.

[0096] Elevator leveling detection:

[0097] By collecting records of the elevator's own "leveling failure" and micro-motion abnormality thresholds, the robot is assigned tasks to floors with abnormal leveling data. The robot is equipped with an RGBD camera on a retractable and movable mechanical arm. When the elevator is leveling, it takes a close-up depth map to analyze whether there is a height difference between the car floor and the door sill. Taking the car floor as the reference, a point is taken to fit the plane, and then a point is taken on the door sill. The maximum vertical distance from the point taken on the fitted plane to the car floor is used as the leveling accuracy.

[0098] Through the implementation of the above solution, combined with big data to automatically generate inspection tasks and group task planning, the efficiency of elevator inspections has been improved, and the workload of manual inspections has been reduced. Through big data analysis and the application of intelligent devices, elevator faults can be diagnosed more accurately, improving the accuracy of fault diagnosis. According to the health status of the elevator and the preset task requirements, personalized inspection tasks are formulated for each elevator to achieve on-demand inspections, improve the pertinence and effectiveness of inspections, and enhance the intelligence level of robots. Through collaboration and training, the inspection capabilities of robots are continuously improved, data security and privacy protection are enhanced, and the safety and reliability of elevator inspection data are ensured.

[0099] The above describes the elevator intelligent inspection method in the embodiment of the present invention. The following describes the elevator intelligent inspection device in the embodiment of the present invention.
