[0002] During construction, because the engineering drawing designers did not provide a clear visual representation of the components on the design drawings, the subsequent construction workers were unable to determine the type of components to be used based on the specific locations provided by the engineering drawing designers, resulting in significant construction difficulties. Summary of the Invention

[0034] Figure 3 This is the second BIM 3D diagram of an electrical junction box layout method based on BIM according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0035] Figure 4 This is a structural framework diagram of an electronic device. Detailed Implementation

[0036] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention clearer, the embodiments of the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0037] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, an electrical junction box layout method based on BIM according to an embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps:

[0038] S1, obtain an electrical junction box layout request for any independent household, and display the BIM 3D map corresponding to the independent household based on the electrical junction box layout request. The BIM 3D map includes all conduit layouts and all junction box layouts in the independent household.

[0039] S2, based on the location information and the identifier of each electrical junction box, search the electrical family database according to the identifier, and place the corresponding three-dimensional model of the electrical appliance in the corresponding position to complete the layout of the electrical junction boxes.

[0040] The beneficial effects of the BIM-based electrical junction box layout method provided by this invention are as follows:

[0041] By identifying the specific type of electrical junction box at each location using its corresponding label, the installation process can be quickly and effectively determined. Furthermore, the addition of a 3D model of the electrical components enhances accuracy and prevents misconfigurations. Additionally, it provides installation personnel with a graphical reference.

[0042] An independent dwelling refers to any dwelling unit or any room within a dwelling unit.

[0043] The electrical junction box layout request includes: a unique identifier for each independent resident, and a request type. The unique identifier can be the resident's house number or a unique string generated through coding. The request type specifically requests to display and edit the BIM 3D model corresponding to that independent resident.

[0044] It should be further explained that the BIM 3D drawing is a 3D drawing after the conduits have been laid out.

[0045] The markings corresponding to electrical junction boxes refer to the graphic symbols, numerical values, or codes used to indicate the type of electrical junction box. Different types correspond to different markings, and no specific limitations are made here.

[0046] In the process of searching for 3D models of electrical appliances: First, identify the identifier, and if the identifier can be identified, determine the type corresponding to the identifier. Based on the type, search for at least one 3D model of an electrical appliance corresponding to the identifier in the electrical appliance family database. Based on the size corresponding to the identifier in the BIM 3D drawing, determine the 3D model of an electrical appliance with the closest size among at least one 3D model of an electrical appliance, and use it as the final 3D model of the electrical appliance.

[0047] When the label cannot be accurately identified (e.g., staff forget to label it), the location of the electrical box on the wall and the first label corresponding to the adjacent electrical boxes on at least one side of the connected circuit are determined, and a search is performed in the historical database. The specific search process is as follows:

[0048] Determine the wall type (wall types include, but are not limited to, living room load-bearing walls, bathroom load-bearing walls, etc.), search for at least one historical wall with the same wall type, and generate a first search result. If the first search result is correct, search for at least one historical electrical box on at least one historical wall according to preset conditions. The preset conditions are: historical electrical boxes with the first identifier and other connection relationships. Other connection relationships refer to connections with other electrical boxes. Generate a second search result. If the second search result is correct, determine the number of historical electrical boxes. If the number exceeds three, determine whether there are identical identifiers for adjacent historical electrical boxes corresponding to all historical electrical boxes. If the number of identical identifiers exceeds half, output that identifier as a search result (for example, if two of the three historical electrical boxes are connected to the adjacent historical electrical box with identifier A, then identifier A will be output as a search result).

[0049] If the first search result is negative, an alert is issued, and the corresponding identifier is determined manually.

[0050] If the second search result is negative, an alert is issued, and the corresponding identifier is determined manually.

[0051] The above method can effectively determine the corresponding label for each electrical junction box, which on the one hand ensures the accuracy of the quantity map generation, and on the other hand can make up for the mistakes made by the staff, making the method more complete.

[0052] In addition, after finalizing the 3D model of the electrical appliance, to ensure a good user experience when using the drawings, it is necessary to further determine whether the electrical junction boxes will collide. The specific determination process is as follows:

[0053] Determine the center point of the block diagram corresponding to the electrical junction box in the BIM 3D drawing. Make the center point of the electrical 3D model coincide with the center point of the block diagram. Determine whether there is an overlap of the electrical 3D models in the current state. If this happens, it is determined that the electrical junction box has collided.

[0054] When a collision occurs, the position of the block diagram corresponding to the electrical junction box in any BIM 3D drawing is readjusted manually. During the adjustment process, it is necessary to ensure that the wiring in the BIM 3D drawing is not interfered with or covered.

[0055] Furthermore, it also includes: determining whether a collision occurs between the 3D models of electrical appliances;

[0056] When a collision occurs, the electrical junction box involved in the collision is adjusted, and the new position information of the adjusted electrical junction box is recorded.

[0057] When no collision occurs, the two electrical junction boxes that have not collided are connected by a flexible hose.

[0058] Furthermore, it also includes:

[0059] Based on the location information of each electrical junction box and the 3D model of the electrical appliance, a quantity map of the electrical junction boxes is generated.

[0060] Furthermore, the specific process of adjusting the electrical junction box that was involved in the collision is as follows:

[0061] Based on the layout of all conduits, the position of any electrical junction box that collides is moved to ensure that there is no overlap between electrical junction boxes.

[0062] Example 1, as Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 As shown, BIM personnel thoroughly familiarize themselves with the drawings, summarize the design parameters such as specifications, dimensions, cross-sections, and elevations of each electrical junction box, and discuss with MEP personnel to establish a preliminary template layout plan.

[0063] After creating the Revit structural model, locate and load the electrical families into the model, such as: octagonal junction boxes, power distribution boxes, low-voltage distribution boxes, and equipotential bonding boxes. Place them according to the locations shown in the drawings. Change the elevation in the dimension standards. Insert the image of the junction box into the image of the identification data, and add its name in the annotation, such as power, low-voltage, or lighting. After all the junction boxes are placed, use the flexible conduit command to connect two junction boxes together.

[0064] After all the models are built, check for any issues such as electrical junction boxes colliding with each other or with the furniture to be installed. If any collisions are found, report them to the technical lead immediately.

[0065] After correcting technical errors, drawings and quantities can be generated. After copying the floor plan with details, label the electrical junction boxes, showing their type and elevation. Repeat this process to generate drawings sequentially, such as power wiring drawings, lighting drawings, etc. Click the drawing option in the view at the top of the software, drag the drawing into the drawing file, and export it to CAD. Click the schedule command in the view, select the electrical general model, conduit, or flexible hose, then select the family and type, size, length, total, diameter, annotations, connection length, bend length, and elbow length to generate the drawing.

[0066] The benefits of this solution include: BIM clash detection and quantity estimation have been implemented on-site, helping the construction team avoid errors during construction and saving significant amounts of materials. BIM-based visual briefings, construction simulations, and reliable data provision simplify management.

[0067] In the above embodiments, although the steps are numbered S1, S2, etc., they are only specific embodiments given by the present invention.
