Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of health status monitoring and evaluation of electro-mechanical-hydraulic systems, and particularly relates to an intelligent monitoring and quantitative evaluation method and system for the health status of solenoid valves in complex electro-mechanical-hydraulic systems. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of modern industrial and transportation fields, electro-mechanical-hydraulic systems have been widely used in various complex mechanical equipment, especially in the fields of aviation, rail transit, automobiles, etc. The electro-mechanical-hydraulic system controls the working state of the hydraulic or pneumatic transmission system through key components such as solenoid valves to ensure the efficient operation and reliability of the system. In these systems, the solenoid valve plays a crucial role, and its health status directly affects the stability and safety of the entire system.

[0003] Taking the wheel brake system as an example, during the braking process of an aircraft, the solenoid valve is responsible for precisely controlling the pressure of the brake hydraulic system, thereby adjusting the braking force and response speed to ensure that the aircraft can stop smoothly and in a timely manner. Abnormal working conditions of the solenoid valve can lead to slow braking response, over-braking or complete failure, and even cause accidents in severe cases. Therefore, real-time monitoring and quantitative evaluation of the health status of solenoid valves can effectively prevent equipment failures and ensure the reliability and safety of electro-mechanical-hydraulic systems.

[0004] Currently, the health status monitoring technology of solenoid valves still faces some challenges. Traditional monitoring methods usually rely on periodic manual inspections or single physical signal monitoring, and cannot reflect the health status of solenoid valves in real time and comprehensively. With the development of intelligent technologies, health monitoring and evaluation technologies based on big data and artificial intelligence have gradually become an effective way to solve this problem. By combining sensor technology, data acquisition and processing algorithms, it is possible to integrate multiple functions such as operation monitoring, diagnostic prediction, health management, maintenance and repair of solenoid valves for complex electro-mechanical-hydraulic systems, providing an important basis for fault prevention and maintenance decision-making of complex electro-mechanical-hydraulic systems.

[0022] First, based on the collected working data of the solenoid valve in the complex electro-mechanical-hydraulic system, and performing data preprocessing on the collected data. For data sets under different working conditions, a multi-dimensional data fusion algorithm is used to fuse and analyze multi-dimensional data signals, obtain some characteristics of the solenoid valve in the complex electro-mechanical-hydraulic system, screen the health status indicators of the equipment from the characteristics, and combine expert experience and knowledge.

Outstanding achievements have been made in other aspects of the research on solenoid valves in complex electro-mechanical systems, but there are relatively few studies in the field of intelligent monitoring and quantitative evaluation of the health status of solenoid valves in complex electro-mechanical-hydraulic systems. Especially for solenoid valve equipment in complex electro-mechanical-hydraulic systems under different working conditions, there is still a lack of effective health status monitoring and evaluation technologies.

Therefore, the present invention has strong market expansion potential and can provide sustainable technical services for related industries.

[0026] Currently, the health status monitoring of solenoid valves mostly relies on manual inspections or monitoring methods based on single physical quantities. These methods cannot monitor the working state of solenoid valves in real time and continuously, and it is difficult to accurately evaluate the risk of performance degradation or potential failures.

[0033] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer and more understandable, the following further elaborates on the present invention in combination with embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0034] For the intelligent monitoring and quantitative evaluation method of the health state of the solenoid valve used in the complex electro-mechanical-hydraulic system described in this embodiment, the operation data of the solenoid valve is first obtained through the data acquisition module. Specifically, five vibration sensors are arranged on the solenoid valve, including a three-axis vibration sensor, a zero-point single-direction vibration sensor, a three-point single-direction vibration sensor, a six-point single-direction vibration sensor, and a nine-point single-direction vibration sensor. The measuring ranges of these sensors are all 1000 grams, and the frequency response range covers 0.5 to 10000 Hz, which can accurately capture the vibration characteristics of the solenoid valve under different working conditions. The vibration data collected by the sensors in real time is transmitted to the data preprocessing module as the original input for subsequent analysis.

[0035] Next, the data preprocessing module performs processing operations such as auditing, screening, and sorting on the collected solenoid valve vibration data. Specifically, the module first audits the integrity and consistency of the data, and eliminates outliers or noise data that occur during the collection process. Subsequently, it screens out valid vibration signals and sorts the data according to time or other relevant criteria to ensure the continuity and accuracy of the data. Through these preprocessing steps, the system can effectively remove invalid data, ensuring that subsequent analysis is based on high-quality input data, thereby improving the reliability and accuracy of monitoring and evaluation.

[0036] After completing the data preprocessing, the system divides the preprocessed original dataset into datasets under various single Mach number operating conditions. The dataset under each operating condition represents the vibration characteristics of the solenoid valve under specific operating conditions. The purpose of this step is to classify and manage complex multi-condition data, facilitating the use of corresponding analysis algorithms for in-depth processing for different operating conditions. In this way, the system can more accurately capture and analyze the operating characteristics of the solenoid valve under different working states, improving the meticulousness and accuracy of health status monitoring.

[0037] Subsequently, the multi-dimensional data fusion module performs signal fusion analysis on the datasets under different operating conditions using a variety of multi-dimensional data fusion algorithms. Specifically, the system can select advanced multi-dimensional data processing technologies such as Gaussian mixture model (GMM), self-organizing map model (SOM), principal component analysis (PCA), and locally linear embedding algorithm (LLE) to fuse the collected multi-dimensional vibration signals. These algorithms can effectively extract the key feature information during the operation of the solenoid valve, reduce the data dimension, and remove redundant information, thereby obtaining the key feature indicators reflecting the health status of the solenoid valve. Through multi-dimensional data fusion, the system can more comprehensively and accurately reflect the operating state of the solenoid valve, providing a solid data foundation for subsequent health assessment.

[0038] After the feature extraction is completed, the intelligent monitoring and quantitative evaluation module for the health status of the solenoid valve in complex electro-mechanical-hydraulic systems combines expert experience and knowledge to perform fitting analysis on the selected health status indicators. The specific steps include using corresponding algorithms to perform mathematical fitting on the selected health status indicators to generate the health status indicators for the entire life cycle of the solenoid valve. These health status indicators can quantitatively reflect the operating health status of the solenoid valve during its entire service life. When multiple health indicators simultaneously reach the preset threshold, the system determines that the solenoid valve is about to fail. This determination process provides an important basis for equipment maintenance and fault prevention, ensuring the stable operation and efficient management of complex electro-mechanical-hydraulic systems.

[0039] Finally, when the system detects that the health status index of the solenoid valve reaches the failure threshold, it can promptly send out a warning signal to notify the maintenance personnel for inspection and replacement. This intelligent monitoring and evaluation process realizes the full-life cycle management of the health status of the solenoid valve, significantly improving the reliability and service life of the equipment. At the same time, through continuous data collection and analysis, the system has accumulated a large amount of operation data and health status information, providing valuable reference materials for future equipment optimization and performance improvement. Generally speaking, through the integration of advanced data processing and analysis technologies, the present invention realizes the efficient, accurate, and intelligent health status monitoring and quantitative evaluation of the solenoid valve in complex electro-mechanical-hydraulic systems, meeting the high standards of modern industrial equipment management requirements.

[0062] The technical effects of the present invention will be described in detail below in combination with tests.

[0063] In the application embodiment of the present invention, a vibration sensor is used to collect the working data of the solenoid valve in the complex electro-mechanical-hydraulic system. First, the collected solenoid valve data is processed such as auditing, screening, sorting, etc. to remove invalid data, laying a foundation for further analysis. After preprocessing the original data, the data set is divided into data sets under various single Mach number working conditions. For the data sets under different working conditions, a multi-dimensional data fusion algorithm is adopted to perform fusion analysis on the multi-dimensional data signals. After the multi-dimensional data is fused, some characteristics of the solenoid valve in the complex electro-mechanical-hydraulic system are obtained. After analyzing and comparing the above characteristics, health indicators are selected. Combining expert experience and knowledge, the selected health state indicators are fitted with corresponding algorithms to obtain the health state indicators of the solenoid valve throughout its life cycle. When multiple health indicators of the working equipment reach the threshold, the equipment is about to fail.

[0064] Through analysis, the characteristics of the solenoid valve with a degradation trend are obtained. In order to avoid the influence of vibration time on the characteristics, after analyzing and comparing the characteristics, 4 characteristics, namely, the kurtosis factor of the X-radial vibration acceleration, the peak factor of the X-radial vibration acceleration, the kurtosis factor of the Y-axial vibration acceleration, and the pulse factor of the Y-axial vibration acceleration, are selected as the characteristics for the next health state evaluation. Combining expert experience and knowledge, the selected health state indicators are fitted with corresponding algorithms to obtain the change of the health state indicators of the solenoid valve throughout its life cycle as Figure 5 shown. Among them, the kurtosis factor of the X-radial vibration is less than 7.61e-05, the peak factor of the X-radial vibration is less than 17.74, the kurtosis factor of the Y-axial vibration is greater than 2.92e-16 and the pulse factor of the Y-axial vibration is greater than 0.08. When the vibration signal of the solenoid valve does not meet the above conditions, the solenoid valve is about to fail.

[0065] In the application embodiment of the present invention, the working data of the solenoid valve in the complex electro-mechanical-hydraulic system is obtained through a vibration sensor. First, the collected solenoid valve data is audited, screened, and sorted to remove invalid data and prepare for subsequent analysis. After data preprocessing, the original data is divided according to different Mach number working conditions, and for each working condition dataset, multi-dimensional data fusion technology is applied to integrate and analyze multi-dimensional signals. The fused data helps to extract relevant features of the solenoid valve. Through the analysis and comparison of these features, appropriate health indicators are selected, and combined with expert experience, the selected health indicators are fitted using a specific algorithm, and then the health status indicators of the entire life cycle of the solenoid valve are obtained. When multiple health indicators reach the set threshold during the operation of the equipment, it indicates that the equipment is about to fail.

[0066] Intelligent monitoring and quantitative evaluation of the health status of solenoid valves used in complex electro-mechanical-hydraulic systems bring the following benefits to complex electro-mechanical-hydraulic systems:

[0067] 1. Improve system safety: By real-time monitoring the health status of the solenoid valve, potential faults can be detected early, maintenance can be carried out in advance, and system downtime caused by sudden faults can be avoided, thus improving the overall reliability of the system.

[0068] 2. Optimize maintenance strategies: Intelligent monitoring technology can accurately evaluate the working status of the solenoid valve and predict its remaining useful life (RUL), thus helping to formulate a scientific predictive maintenance plan and avoid problems of over-maintenance or under-maintenance.

[0069] 3. Extend equipment life: Through regular health status evaluation, abnormal solenoid valves can be adjusted and repaired in time, reducing the risk of premature equipment damage and extending the service life of the solenoid valve and the entire electro-mechanical-hydraulic system.

[0070] 4. Reduce maintenance costs: Through intelligent monitoring, unnecessary manual inspections and fault handling can be reduced, saving maintenance costs. In addition, by reducing fault downtime and increasing equipment life, the overall operating costs can also be significantly reduced in the long term.

[0071] 5. Enhance safety: In electro-mechanical-hydraulic systems, solenoid valves usually undertake the function of controlling and regulating important fluids or gases. If a failure occurs, it will cause safety hazards. By real-time monitoring the health status of the solenoid valve, safety accidents caused by failures can be effectively prevented.

[0072] 6. Support intelligent and automated management: After integrating health status monitoring and quantitative evaluation methods, the electro-mechanical-hydraulic system can achieve more intelligent management. The automated system can automatically adjust the operation strategy according to the health assessment results and even perform autonomous maintenance.

[0073] 7. Real-time data analysis and decision support: Based on the data analysis of health status monitoring, the system can provide real-time feedback on the performance changes and potential problems of the solenoid valve, assisting maintenance personnel in making timely decisions and improving the decision-making efficiency and quality of the overall system.

[0074] 8. Improve system performance: Health status monitoring can ensure that the solenoid valve operates in the best state, avoiding performance degradation caused by aging or faults, thereby improving the working efficiency and stability of the entire electro-mechanical-hydraulic system.

[0075] In summary, through the intelligent monitoring and quantitative evaluation of the health status of the solenoid valve, timely alarm, automatic diagnosis, and scientific prediction of the faults of the solenoid valve equipment for complex electro-mechanical-hydraulic systems are realized, which can provide more efficient and accurate support for the optimization, maintenance, and operation of complex electro-mechanical-hydraulic systems.

[0076] Figure 4 Shows some statistical characteristics of the solenoid valve. After analyzing and comparing the characteristics, four characteristics, namely the kurtosis factor of the X-radial vibration acceleration, the peak factor of the X-radial vibration acceleration, the kurtosis factor of the Y-axial vibration acceleration, and the impulse factor of the Y-axial vibration acceleration, are selected as the characteristics for the next health status evaluation. Combining expert experience and knowledge, the selected health status indicators are fitted using corresponding algorithms to obtain the changes in the health status indicators of the solenoid valve throughout its life cycle as Figure 5 shown. Among them, the kurtosis factor of the X-radial vibration is less than 7.61e-05, the peak factor of the X-radial vibration is less than 17.74, the kurtosis factor of the Y-axial vibration is greater than 2.92e-16 and the impulse factor of the Y-axial vibration is greater than 0.08. When the vibration signal of the solenoid valve does not meet the above conditions, the solenoid valve is about to fail.

[0077] Example 1: Health monitoring of solenoid valves in petrochemical production lines

[0078] In petrochemical production lines, solenoid valves, as key control components, are widely used in the precise control and regulation of liquids and gases. To ensure the stable operation of the production line and the efficient operation of the equipment, this example applies the real-time state monitoring method of the power converter based on heterogeneous embedded digital twins of the present invention to conduct intelligent monitoring and quantitative evaluation of the health status of key solenoid valves in the production line.

[0079] Install five vibration sensors on each key solenoid valve, including a triaxial vibration sensor and four unidirectional vibration sensors, which are located at different positions to comprehensively capture the vibration characteristics of the solenoid valve. The range of these sensors is 1000 grams, and the frequency response range is 0.5 to 10000 Hz, which can collect the vibration data of the solenoid valve under different working conditions in real time. The collected data is transmitted to the data preprocessing module through the data acquisition module for preliminary review, screening, and sorting, and invalid data is removed to ensure the accuracy of subsequent analysis.

[0080] The preprocessed dataset is divided into multiple subsets according to different single Mach number conditions. Subsequently, the multi-dimensional data fusion module uses algorithms such as Gaussian mixture model (GMM) and principal component analysis (PCA) to perform fusion analysis on the multi-dimensional vibration signals under each condition, and extracts key features reflecting the health status of the solenoid valve. These features are further screened as health status indicators to serve as the basis for quantitative evaluation.

[0081] The health status intelligent monitoring and quantitative evaluation module combines expert experience and knowledge, and uses fitting algorithms to analyze the selected health status indicators to generate health status indicators for the entire life cycle of the solenoid valve. When multiple health indicators reach the preset threshold simultaneously, the system determines that the solenoid valve is about to fail and issues a warning signal in a timely manner. Maintenance personnel arrange maintenance and replacement in advance according to the warning information to avoid production line shutdown caused by solenoid valve failure and ensure the continuity of the production process and the long-term stable operation of the equipment.

[0082] Embodiment 2: Monitoring of the solenoid valve control system in an autonomous vehicle

[0083] In an autonomous vehicle, solenoid valves are widely used in hydraulic systems and braking systems to precisely control hydraulic flow and braking force distribution. To improve the safety and reliability of the vehicle, this embodiment uses the real-time status monitoring method of the power converter based on heterogeneous embedded digital twins of the present invention to perform intelligent monitoring and quantitative evaluation of the health status of the solenoid valves in the autonomous vehicle.

[0084] Five vibration sensors are installed on each key solenoid valve, including a three-axis vibration sensor and four single-axis vibration sensors, which are installed at different positions of the solenoid valve respectively to comprehensively capture its vibration characteristics during operation. The range of these sensors is 1000 grams, and the frequency response range is 0.5 to 10000 Hz, which can collect the vibration data of the solenoid valve under different driving conditions in real time. The collected data is transmitted to the data preprocessing module through the data acquisition module for data review, screening and sorting to remove noise and outliers and ensure data quality.

[0085] The preprocessed dataset is divided into datasets of multiple single conditions according to different driving conditions of the vehicle (such as acceleration, braking, steering, etc.). The multi-dimensional data fusion module uses multi-dimensional data fusion algorithms such as self-organizing mapping model (SOM) and locally linear embedding algorithm (LLE) to deeply analyze the vibration signals under each condition and extracts key health features. These features are screened as health status indicators to serve as the basic data for subsequent quantitative evaluation.

[0086] The intelligent health status monitoring and quantitative evaluation module combines expert knowledge and historical data, and uses a fitting algorithm to analyze the selected health status indicators, generating the health status indicators of the solenoid valve throughout its life cycle. When multiple health indicators reach or exceed the set thresholds, the system automatically determines that the solenoid valve is about to fail and sends a warning signal to the driver through the in-vehicle display system. At the same time, the system transmits the fault warning information to the vehicle maintenance system to guide technicians to perform maintenance or replacement in a timely manner, ensuring the safety and stability of the autonomous vehicle during driving.

[0087] The above two embodiments demonstrate the specific applications of the present invention in different application scenarios. In a petrochemical production line and an autonomous vehicle respectively, through the real-time status monitoring method of the power converter based on heterogeneous embedded digital twins, the efficient, accurate and intelligent health status monitoring and quantitative evaluation of the solenoid valve are realized, improving the overall reliability and operation efficiency of the system.

[0088] As described above, the above are only specific embodiments of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any modification, equivalent replacement, and improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present invention by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention shall be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
