DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0017] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.

[0018] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2, this embodiment discloses an intelligent operation and maintenance method for urban rail transit vehicles, including: obtaining the vehicle bill of materials, building a maintenance unit based on the bill of materials; performing structured conversion on vehicle data to generate a data message, publishing the data message to the track maintenance equipment for pre-binding; and importing the maintenance unit data into the track maintenance equipment to generate a rail vehicle maintenance task; performing fault supervision on the executed rail vehicle maintenance task, and the fault supervision includes manual detection and machine detection; when reporting a fault, detecting the vehicle configuration of manual detection and machine detection, if they do not belong to the same configuration, performing data conversion and data cleaning; if they belong to the same configuration, performing data fusion; integrating the generated data of the maintenance task and fault supervision, evaluating the vehicle health status and planning the vehicle maintenance cycle. And an intelligent operation and maintenance system for urban rail transit vehicles, used to execute the above-mentioned intelligent operation and maintenance method for urban rail transit vehicles, including a management side and a production side; The management side includes a structured process management module, a plan management module, a resource management module and a quality management module; among them, the structured process management module is used to unify the data dimensions of vehicle configuration, processes and items; the plan management module is used to manage maintenance procedures and operating instructions; the resource management module is used to manage material requirements, circulating parts, process equipment, tools and personnel qualifications; the quality management module is used to record working hours and energy consumption; the production side includes a health management module, an intelligent diagnosis module, a maintenance plan module, an intelligent scheduling module, an operation and maintenance control module, a manual inspection / mechanical inspection process flow module, and a digital twin visualization module; among them, the health management module is used to form a maintenance plan after completing the inspection of vehicles and / or trackside and / or process equipment in combination with the intelligent diagnosis module; the maintenance plan module is configured with maintenance requirements of different dimensions, which are coordinated with the intelligent scheduling module through advanced scheduling algorithms; after scheduling, they are recorded through the operation and maintenance control module and the manual inspection / mechanical inspection process flow module and stored in the quality management module; the digital twin visualization module is used to visualize the maintenance process and maintenance data.

[0019] In this embodiment, the purpose of the structured process management module is to take into account that the core of vehicle maintenance and repair is based on the vehicle's BOM, that is, the bill of material. This embodiment realizes the information transmission of equipment throughout its life cycle based on BOM, and constructs maintenance process elements based on BOM organization. The vehicle delivery BOM that the vehicle depot usually obtains from the OEM is often a simple paper bill of materials. During the vehicle operation, maintenance and repair period, it is necessary to construct a maintenance BOM based on the delivery BOM combined with maintenance capabilities and management accuracy. Therefore, around the maintenance BOM, a structured process integrating monitoring and inspection is constructed to unify the objects of human-machine maintenance, maintenance procedures, work steps, and maintenance standards.

[0020] Specifically, when conducting intelligent operation and maintenance management, the maintenance unit is first constructed. The maintenance unit is constructed through a tree-like relationship structure. The principle is to construct inspection items of different precisions with reasonable human-machine inspection capabilities. The information of the maintenance unit includes the name, number, hierarchical relationship between components, and explicit and implicit attribute definitions. The subsequent application of structured technology in vehicle inspection includes exporting the vehicle configuration structured data into a JSON data message through the system, mainly including: configuration ID, configuration unique code, configuration full spelling name, configuration name, configuration current level, position level x value range, supporting up to 5 layers of position information, associating and splicing each layer of position options to obtain a unique position, and then the configuration instance can be determined.

[0021] See also Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is the data fusion logic diagram based on vehicle configuration in this embodiment. After obtaining the vehicle configuration, it is transformed into JSON format data, and the item coverage is sorted through the item sorting APP, the template is drawn through the CV template software, and the item calibration and binding are performed through the LPT calibration software. Then it is sent to the machine maintenance (machine inspection) to cooperate with the manual maintenance (human inspection) for fault reporting. Based on the current vehicle configuration, the original maintenance process is selected and decomposed and entered, and the item points are optimized.

[0022] In this way, the JSON file is published to the trackside inspection equipment, in-depot inspection robot equipment, etc. for pre-binding, so that the data reported by each inspection equipment itself has a corresponding relationship with the vehicle configuration tree of the vehicle intelligent operation and maintenance system, making it possible to connect the machine inspection data with the human inspection and vehicle operation data.

[0023] In terms of manual maintenance, when reporting a fault, selection and reporting are made based on the vehicle configuration information and its location range information provided by the system, so that the reported information is bound to the corresponding vehicle configuration, allowing manual inspection data and machine inspection data to be on the same latitude.

[0024] The structured process management module uses unified configuration components for the machine inspection data of onboard, trackside, and inspection robots, as well as the objects of manual inspection and reporting of faults, review and backfilling, etc., so that the machine inspection and manual inspection data of vehicle components can be integrated. For example, the machine inspection measurement and dimensional data of wheels and the manual inspection measurement and dimensional data can be directly integrated, analyzed and compared, without the need for additional data conversion and cleaning work, which greatly improves the availability and accuracy of data. If the same vehicle component is machine inspected by different equipment, the full amount of machine inspection and manual inspection data can be comprehensively diagnosed and analyzed through the latitude of configuration components to solve the limitation that a single device can only diagnose through some of the inspection items of the component. The comprehensive full amount of relevant data of the component can be used to make more scientific data analysis and maintenance recommendation decisions.

[0025] When monitoring and evaluating the health status of the vehicle, the system monitors and evaluates the health status of the vehicle in real time based on the collected vehicle operation data, combined with process knowledge and preset evaluation models. Through data analysis, the system can accurately identify potential vehicle faults and provide corresponding fault warning information, including the mileage limit of the component life and the estimated time node of the limit.

[0026] On the other hand, when the vehicle is dynamically inspected based on the inspection plan and the vehicle status, the present embodiment includes the following method: The system plans the vehicle maintenance weekly plan according to the vehicle depot maintenance procedures and operation instructions, including the maintenance procedures that need to be performed on each vehicle every day, whether the vehicle needs to be washed, the route number table to be executed, and other information.

[0027] The weekly plan is a preliminary plan. The daily vehicle operation plan needs to consider more influencing factors, including the on-board and trackside monitoring and alarm information, which need to be reviewed and processed, and the vehicle mileage needs to be considered in a step-by-step manner.

[0028] Based on the vehicle weekly plan and vehicle health status monitoring results, the system uses the OptaPlanner advanced scheduling algorithm, combined with the daily maintenance execution cycle in the vehicle daily operation plan, the vehicle receiving and dispatching plan, the vehicle mileage, the vehicle detention status and other constraints, and obtains the solution that meets the constraints and has the highest score through modeling and solving, assisting the site dispatcher to achieve better coordinated scheduling and improve the overall vehicle operation and maintenance efficiency.

[0029] At the vehicle maintenance execution level, combined with resource management, such as automatically associating the materials and process equipment required for the maintenance process, one-click application can be made to improve the efficiency of business process flow.

[0030] In some feasible scenarios, vehicle maintenance items are usually divided into visual, auditory, measurement, test records, etc. Trackside + in-depot inspection robots can completely replace visual items and some measurement items. These items are divided into machine inspections, accounting for more than 80%. With the help of the above-mentioned structured process knowledge fusion technology, initial inspections on the trackside and re-inspections by in-depot inspection robots can be achieved, thereby replacing temporary manual review tasks and improving overall efficiency. The remaining 20% ​​of the items are human inspections. The system uses an AR single-soldier system to achieve full-process video recording of the human inspection part and voice interactive guidance and reporting of the items. The backfill data uses structured process knowledge fusion technology to make the combination of human and machine maintenance more scientific and maximize the value of data utilization.

[0031] Furthermore, this embodiment also provides visual management and control of vehicle maintenance based on digital twins. Specifically, a virtual model of the vehicle is established using digital twin technology to achieve visual management and control of the vehicle maintenance process. By synchronizing the actual operating data and maintenance data of the vehicle in real time, the system can simulate the vehicle maintenance process in a virtual environment. Dispatchers can intuitively understand the maintenance progress and problem diagnosis information through the virtual interface, thereby conducting remote monitoring and command. At the same time, the system can also optimize and improve the maintenance process and procedures based on data feedback during the maintenance process, thereby improving maintenance efficiency and quality.

[0032] As an optional method, this embodiment designs and develops a scene editor based on modeling tools and the ThreeJS 3D rendering library on the web, and implements digital twin-based vehicle maintenance visualization management and control through the following paths: 1. By modeling the buildings, vehicles, personnel, process equipment, etc. of the vehicle base.

[0033] 2. Use the self-developed scene editor to build scenes, including equipment layout, etc.

[0034] 3. Manage and maintain twin basic data.

[0035] 4. Drive the twins by fusing data to achieve two-way linkage in three-dimensional scenes.

[0036] Through the above scheme, this embodiment realizes the intelligent, efficient and visualized vehicle maintenance by combining process knowledge, status data and twin model drive. The system can not only connect the detection data output by the monitoring and inspection equipment with the application data of the team maintenance based on the standardized configuration process, but also formulate the optimal maintenance plan according to the vehicle operation plan and health status, and realize the visual control of the maintenance process through digital twin technology. This can not only improve the efficiency and quality of maintenance, but also greatly reduce the safety risks in the vehicle operation and maintenance process.

[0037] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention. It should be noted that the above preferred embodiments should not be regarded as limiting the present invention, and the protection scope of the present invention should be based on the scope defined by the claims. For ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
