[0049] like Figure 1 As shown, the industrial project planning and design platform 100 of this embodiment includes: a file generation module 110 , a drawing generation module 120 , a control planning module 130 and an interactive planning module 140 .

[0050] Among them, the file generation module 110 and the drawing generation module 120 can realize the configuration of the hardware in the project, and realize the automatic generation of the hardware management files in the project. Specifically, the file generation module 110 is configured to: be able to configure the corresponding automatic control electrical equipment in the industrial project according to the project requirements, and generate a file list including the information of the automatic control electrical equipment. The file generation module 110 can be deployed on the web page and / or the client. Preferably, the file generation module 110 is deployed on the web page, which has the advantages of easy access, good compatibility, and good sharing.

[0051] The above project requirements include the functions that the industrial project needs to achieve, that is, according to the functions that the industrial project needs to achieve, the automatic control electrical equipment that realizes the functions in the industrial project is configured. The automatic control electrical equipment referred to here refers to the hardware products involved in the industrial project, such as controllers, CPUs, sensors, control valves, electrical cabinets, etc. Among them, some hardware products are assembled in electrical cabinets during construction, while some hardware products are installed on site during construction. Based on this, Figure 2 As shown, the file generation module 110 includes: an equipment management unit 111 , an equipment selection unit 112 , a quotation generation unit 113 and a table generation unit 114 .

[0052] The above-mentioned equipment management unit 111 is configured to: configure the type and quantity of corresponding automatic control electrical equipment according to project requirements; and calculate the corresponding IO points according to the type and quantity of automatic control electrical equipment, and allocate the calculated IO points to the corresponding electrical cabinet. In order to calculate the corresponding IO points, the equipment management unit 111 is also configured to: search for the IO points corresponding to the type of automatic control electrical equipment in the equipment type library according to the type of the automatic control electrical equipment, and calculate the corresponding number of IO points in combination with the number of the automatic control electrical equipment; summarize the number of IO points of each type of automatic control electrical equipment, classify and count the number of IO points, and allocate them to the corresponding electrical cabinet. For example, classify and count the number of IO points according to DI / DO / AI / AO.

[0053] The equipment selection unit 112 is configured to select the model of the automatic control electrical equipment according to the required parameters. Specifically, by inputting the working parameters, manufacturer, series and other information of the automatic control electrical equipment, the performance of the relevant automatic control electrical equipment and other conditions are comprehensively considered to select the suitable model and the optimal model.

[0054] The quotation generation unit 113 is configured to generate a quotation list including automatic control electrical equipment, field equipment, and construction materials according to the type and quantity of automatic control electrical equipment and the allocation of IO points, so as to facilitate the management and adjustment of the budget of the industrial project.

[0055] The table generation unit 114 is configured to generate a report document in an industrial project according to the type and quantity of the automatic control electrical equipment and the allocation of the IO points. The report document can be configured with specific content according to the needs, such as classification and statistics according to the project monitoring area, and generating equipment according to the cabinet configuration. The generated report includes computer monitoring equipment, network equipment, on-site detection equipment, on-site valves and other monitoring equipment, as well as cables, bridges, wire pipes and other contents installed and constructed.

[0056] like Figure 3 As shown, the drawing generation module 120 is configured to generate an engineering drawing including the automatic control electrical equipment information according to the configured automatic control electrical equipment information. The drawing generation module 120 can be deployed on the client, so as to obtain support from drawing software such as CAD on the client, so as to facilitate the generation of subsequent drawings. Specifically, the drawing generation module 120 includes: a wiring diagram generation unit 121 and a construction drawing generation unit 122.

[0057] The wiring diagram generation unit 121 is configured to generate a wiring diagram in an industrial project according to the type and quantity of the automatic electrical equipment and the allocation of IO points. The wiring diagram specifically includes an electrical cabinet layout diagram, an electrical cabinet wiring diagram, and a corresponding FTA test form, etc. The construction drawing generation unit 122 is configured to generate a plan construction drawing in an industrial project according to the type and quantity of the automatic electrical equipment and the allocation of IO points. The principle of generating the above-mentioned engineering drawings is that drawings of various automatic electrical equipment are pre-stored in the platform. When the type and quantity of the automatic electrical equipment are selected, the stored drawings can be automatically retrieved according to the selected result, and the drawings can be drawn according to the allocated IO points.

[0058] The control planning module 130 and the interaction planning module 140 can realize the automatic generation of hardware control content in the automation control system and the generation of human-computer interaction content in the project. The control planning module 130 and the interaction planning module 140 can be deployed on the client, so as to obtain support from hardware configuration software on the client, so as to facilitate the subsequent generation of hardware blocks.

[0059] The control planning module 130 is configured to generate variable table information, function block information, control hardware information and control logic information according to the configured automatic control electrical equipment information, so as to meet the control level requirements of the industrial project. Figure 4 As shown, the control planning module 130 includes: a variable table generating unit 131 , a function corresponding unit 132 , a network hardware generating unit 133 and a control logic generating unit 134 .

[0060] The variable table generation unit 131 is configured to generate a variable table according to the IO points and monitoring function requirements. Specifically, the variable table generation unit 131 is configured to generate corresponding parameters of the automatic control electrical equipment according to the number and type of IO points and the variable specification requirements, and generate the variable table after summarizing the IO points and corresponding parameters of all automatic control electrical equipment.

[0061] For example, the IO variable table of the interactive system can generate the type and quantity of interactive system variables of the device based on the project's equipment monitoring requirements and the IO type of the device corresponding to the above control unit. For example, if the alarm interlock uses a temperature sensor, the interactive system IO variables will involve temperature AI data detection points, alarm upper and lower limit setting points, alarm enable points, etc.

[0062] The principle is that the IO points need to be mapped to the variable table to establish a corresponding relationship between the two. This is because, in the automation system, the IO points are used to exchange data with external devices (such as sensors, actuators, etc.). These points are usually directly related to the physical hardware and are responsible for receiving input signals from the outside or sending output signals to the outside. However, directly operating these physical IO points in the program may be complicated and prone to errors. Therefore, the data of these points is accessed and operated with the help of the variable table.

[0063] The function corresponding unit 132 is configured to generate a variable table function block according to the IO point position and monitoring function requirements. Specifically, the function corresponding unit 132 is configured to correspond the IO point position to the controller according to the number and type of IO points, combined with the type of controller in the configured automatic electrical equipment, and finally determine the number and specifications of the electrical cabinet. Among them, since various types of controllers have a fixed number of access IO points, for example, if the AI ​​module is selected as 8 channels, then devices with 8 AI points can be connected.

[0064] The network hardware generation unit 133 is configured to generate network hardware according to the IO points and control requirements. Specifically, the network hardware generation unit 133 is configured to automatically generate hardware configuration and network according to the number and type of IO points, combined with the type and number of controllers in the configured automatic electrical equipment. For example, according to the number of IO stations that can be monitored by a certain model of controller, how many control modules can be detected per IO station; using the external interface of the controller development platform, automatically generate hardware configuration and network.

[0065] The control logic generation unit 134 is used to generate the linkage control logic between the unit and the automatic control electrical equipment. The unit refers to large units such as air conditioning equipment and refrigeration equipment in the application area of ​​the industrial project in this embodiment, and the automatic control electrical equipment refers to the hardware part that plays a control role in the unit, such as sensors, control valves, etc. The control logic of the automatic control electrical equipment on the unit can be established through the control logic generation unit 134 to realize the operation and function of the unit.

[0066] Specifically, the control logic generation unit 134 is configured to generate the linkage control logic between the unit and the automatic control electrical equipment according to the monitoring area requirements, the unit configuration requirements and the monitoring correspondence. The monitoring area requirements refer to the control requirements of the application area of ​​the industrial project, such as the area, layout and temperature and humidity required to be maintained; the unit configuration requirements refer to the model, working condition, function, etc. of the unit; the monitoring correspondence refers to the linkage and coordination mode of the automatic control electrical equipment in the unit in order to realize the operation and function of the unit, such as the collection of sensor signals and the opening and closing of valves.

[0067] Thus, the control logic generation unit 134 combines the monitoring area requirements, unit configuration requirements and monitoring correspondence information to establish the control logic of the automatic control electrical equipment relative to the unit, that is, under the condition of meeting the unit configuration requirements and monitoring correspondence, the linkage and coordination mode of the automatic control electrical equipment can realize the actual requirements of the monitoring area. In this way, the programming efficiency of the controller is greatly improved, and standardization is achieved to achieve the quality of the control program.

[0068] The interaction planning module 140 is configured to generate human-machine interaction information according to the configured automatic electrical equipment information, so as to meet the control requirements of human-machine interaction in industrial projects. Figure 5 As shown, the interaction planning module 140 includes: an IO table generating unit 141 , an operation interface generating unit 142 , and a history record generating unit 143 .

[0069] The IO table generation unit 141 is configured to generate an IO table according to the requirements of IO points and human-machine interface monitoring. The operation interface generation unit 142 is configured to generate a flow chart interface and equipment blocks according to the requirements of project process and interface monitoring. The operation interface generation unit 142 is mainly classified and configured according to the requirements of project production process monitoring, such as which process interface certain equipment is monitored on, what monitoring functions are there, and how to implement them.

[0070] The above-mentioned history record generating unit 143 is configured to generate history, alarm and operation records according to the requirements of production and interface monitoring division of labor.

[0071] Specifically, according to the needs of production and interface monitoring division of labor, generating history, alarm and operation records includes: configuring key equipment and points, storing the periodic detection data and alarm trigger data of the configured equipment IO points, and generating an interactive system history database; the interactive system history database includes: historical curves, alarm statistics and operation records. Therefore, when analyzing the production data statistics and the history of accident alarms, you can go to the corresponding interface to operate and query historical curves, production reports, alarm statistics, etc.

[0072] In summary, the industrial project planning and design platform of the present invention integrates multiple modules, wherein the file generation module and the drawing generation module can realize the configuration of the hardware in the project, and realize the automatic generation of the hardware management file in the project. Furthermore, the control planning module and the interaction planning module can realize the automatic generation of the hardware control content in the project according to the configured hardware information, and realize the generation of the human-computer interaction content in the project. In this way, it is conducive to realizing the automation and standardized design of industrial projects, thereby significantly improving the efficiency of industrial project design.
