Description

Technical Field

[0002] In modern industrial cutting equipment, disc shear blades are widely used in the cutting process of various materials, such as wood, metal, plastic, etc. However, in the actual cutting process, the contact state between the shear blades and the material is crucial for the cutting effect and the long-term stability of the equipment. The spacing between the shear blades directly affects the cutting accuracy, cutting efficiency, and the wear rate of the equipment. If the spacing is adjusted improperly, it may lead to uneven cutting, excessive wear, and energy consumption waste, thus affecting the product quality and the service life of the equipment. Most of the existing shear blade spacing adjustment technologies rely on manual settings or control systems based on fixed rules, unable to respond to the changes in the working environment in real time, and not fully considering factors such as shear blade wear, load changes, and material characteristics. Therefore, the existing technologies have problems such as insufficient adjustment accuracy, slow response, and poor adaptability.

[0003] In order to improve the cutting quality and extend the service life of the equipment, more and more research has begun to explore how to optimize the shear blade spacing control through intelligent means. Existing technologies have also tried to combine sensor data to detect the contact state between the shear blades and the material, but these methods often rely on a single signal source and mostly lack real-time learning and adaptive functions, unable to effectively cope with complex environments and working condition changes.

[0064] Embodiment 1

[0065] Referring to Figure 1 , the first embodiment of the present invention provides a method for controlling the spacing of disc cutting blades, including the following steps:

[0066] S1: Arrange a plurality of acoustic sensors in the contact area between the cutting blades and the cutting material, and monitor the acoustic wave signals generated during the shearing process in real time. Collect the sound frequency and intensity information generated when the cutting blades contact the material through the acoustic wave signals. These information reflect the contact situation between the cutting blades and the material; use a frequency analysis algorithm (such as the fast Fourier transform FFT) to process the acoustic wave signals, extract the contact frequency pattern between the cutting blades and the material, and indirectly infer the actual spacing of the cutting blades.

[0067] Among them, the acoustic sensors adopt piezoelectric sensors or micro-microphone array sensors. Specifically, when in use, when the cutting blades contact the material, specific frequency and intensity acoustic wave signals will be generated during the shearing process. These acoustic wave signals can reflect the contact situation between the cutting blades and the material. The frequency and intensity of the acoustic wave signals are closely related to factors such as the actual spacing of the cutting blades, the hardness of the material, and the cutting load.

[0068] This step provides accurate real-time data input for the entire control system, ensuring that the subsequent deep learning model can make effective predictions based on the acoustic signals.

[0069] S2: Collect historical data of the cutting blades in different working states, construct a deep learning model, and then input these historical data into the model for training, so that the model can learn and predict the change trend of the cutting blade spacing. During the training process, optimize the model parameters through the cross-validation method to improve the generalization ability of the model to ensure that it can cope with changes in different working states.

[0070] Among them, the historical data includes acoustic sensor feedback, scissor blade spacing, cutting load, material type information, and environmental factors. The environmental factors include temperature, humidity, and air pressure. After preprocessing and feature extraction, these historical data serve as the basis for training the deep learning model to improve the prediction accuracy of the model.

[0071] This step efficiently predicts the scissor blade spacing through the deep learning model, improving the intelligence level of the control system.

[0072] S3: Introduce a control system for real-time monitoring of the scissor blade spacing and adjustment of working parameters. In the control system, fuse the data collected by the acoustic sensor with the prediction results of the deep learning model and the material property data, so as to realize real-time monitoring of the actual scissor blade spacing. Through the feedback control system, based on the acoustic signal and the prediction results of the deep learning model, dynamically adjust the scissor blade spacing; for example, according to the state of the scissor blade in contact with the material reflected by the acoustic signal, the system precisely adjusts the scissor blade spacing through an actuator (such as an electric drive or a pneumatic cylinder). At the same time, the control system uses the deep learning model to predict in advance the spacing change trend caused by scissor blade wear, increased load, or material property changes, ensuring timely adjustment of the scissor blade spacing before actual scissor blade wear or load change, thus guaranteeing the cutting quality.

[0073] This step enhances the response speed and accuracy of the control system through the real-time feedback and prediction mechanism.

[0074] S4: Enable the control system to have a self-learning function. During the use of the scissor blade, the control system collects new data and self-optimizes the deep learning model according to the dynamic factors of the scissor blade (actual wear of the scissor blade, change in working load, change in environmental conditions, etc.), and adjusts the parameters of the deep learning model through an online learning mechanism, thereby improving the prediction accuracy of the scissor blade spacing change, enabling the control system to dynamically adjust according to the new working environment and scissor blade state, to cope with changes under different working conditions, and ensuring automatic adjustment of the control strategy when the environment changes (such as temperature, humidity, material type, etc.), always providing the optimal scissor blade distance.

[0075] This step enhances the adaptive ability of the system and can cope with the challenges of different working environments.

[0076] S5: Conduct performance verification experiments to test the accuracy of the acoustic sensor feedback, the prediction accuracy of the deep learning model, and the response speed of the feedback control system. Evaluate the effectiveness of the scissor blade spacing control method through experimental data, such as indicators like cutting accuracy, equipment life, and energy consumption, to further ensure the stability and efficiency of the control system. At the same time, conduct system debugging in different types of shearing tasks to ensure that this method can provide stable and accurate spacing control under various load and material cutting conditions, continuously optimize the system performance, and ultimately achieve precise and efficient scissor blade spacing control.

[0077] This step ensures the practicality and reliability of the system through multiple rounds of experiments and debugging.

[0078] Specifically, the construction of the deep learning model in S2 includes the following steps:

[0079] S21: Collect historical data of the scissor blades in different working states, including acoustic wave signal characteristics, environmental variables, and material characteristics (such as hardness, density, thickness, etc.), and perform data cleaning, annotation, normalization processing, and feature extraction (extract the characteristics of the audio signal, such as frequency, intensity, time-domain and frequency-domain features (such as mean, standard deviation, FFT, etc.)) to ensure high-quality and representative data input for the deep learning model.

[0080] S22: Based on the temporal characteristics and feature requirements of the data, select a suitable deep learning model architecture, such as LSTM, CNN, CNN + LSTM hybrid model, or deep neural network, to meet the task requirements of scissor blade spacing prediction while capturing temporal dependencies and extracting spatial features.

[0081] S23: Divide the collected data into a training set, a validation set, and a test set, usually in a ratio of 70% for the training set, 15% for the validation set, and 15% for the test set. The validation set is used to adjust hyperparameters during the training process, while the test set is used for the final performance evaluation. Train the model using the training set and optimize the model parameters through the backpropagation and gradient descent algorithms. Use cross-validation techniques to optimize the generalization ability of the model through different data splitting methods. During the training process, adjust the model according to the loss function (such as mean squared error MSE) on the training set and the validation set to avoid overfitting or underfitting.

[0082] S24: Use the validation set and the test set to evaluate the model, adjust the model based on error metrics such as MSE and MAE, and further improve the prediction accuracy and robustness of the model through optimization algorithms such as regularization and Dropout.

[0083] S25: Integrate the optimized deep learning model into the control system to predict the changing trend of the scissor blade spacing in real time. Dynamically adjust the scissor blade spacing in real time according to the feedback of the acoustic sensor, and at the same time ensure that the system can continuously optimize the model through online learning to adapt to different working environments and scissor blade states.

[0084] S26: Regularly collect new data and update the model to cope with environmental changes and working conditions changes, ensure that the deep learning model maintains high efficiency during long-term use, and maintain its stability and accuracy in practical applications through monitoring and adjustment.

[0085] Specifically, in S3, the data collected by the acoustic sensor in the control system is fused with the prediction results of the deep learning model and the material property data, including the following steps:

[0086] S31: First, preprocess the original signal captured by the acoustic sensor to ensure its synchronization with the input data of the deep learning model in time. The preprocessing includes:

[0087] Signal denoising: Apply a filtering algorithm (such as a low-pass filter) to remove high-frequency noise and retain the key signals of the contact between the scissor blade and the material.

[0088] Signal normalization: Normalize the sensor data to a specific range to ensure the consistency of different sensor data.

[0089] Time synchronization: Ensure that the signal data of all sensors is consistent with the time step of the model input. Especially in real-time monitoring, the acoustic signal and the prediction results of the deep learning model need to be processed and fused at the same moment.

[0090] At the same time, preprocess the material property data (such as hardness, density, thickness, etc.) and normalize these data for effective combination with the acoustic signal and the deep learning prediction results.

[0091] S32: In the control system, the acoustic sensor data, the prediction results of the deep learning model, and the material property data achieve more accurate control of the scissor blade spacing through data fusion technology (several methods can be adopted: weighted fusion, Kalman filtering, recurrent neural network (RNN) or LSTM). Specifically, the material property data will act together with the acoustic signal and the prediction value of the deep learning model during the fusion process. In this way, the control system can not only adjust the scissor blade spacing in real time, but also dynamically adjust the scissor blade spacing control strategy according to the actual physical properties of the material (for example, hardness, density, thickness, etc.). For example, materials with greater hardness may require a larger scissor blade spacing predicted by the deep learning model, while materials with greater density may require adjustment of the cutting speed.

[0092] S33: Use the fused scissor blade spacing value as a control signal and transmit it to the actuator module (such as an electric drive or pneumatic cylinder) in the control system. Then, the control system calculates the error between the ideal spacing and the actual spacing based on the fused signal, and adjusts it through a PID controller to precisely adjust the spacing of the scissor blades. The material characteristic data will affect the parameter adjustment of the controller during this process to ensure the precise adjustment of the scissor blade spacing under different material conditions.

[0093] S34: To cope with the changing working environment and scissor blade status, the control system continuously collects new acoustic data and material characteristic data through an online learning mechanism and updates the deep learning model. During the model adjustment process, it automatically optimizes the data fusion strategy and combines an adaptive fusion strategy to dynamically adjust the weight values or filtering coefficients in the data fusion method as the working environment (such as temperature, humidity, or material type) changes. The change in material characteristics will affect the adjustment of the weight values or filtering coefficients to ensure the accurate combination of acoustic signals, the prediction results of the deep learning model, and material characteristic data, thereby achieving precise control of the scissor blade spacing.

[0094] Specifically, the automatic adjustment of the control strategy in S4 when the environment changes includes the following steps:

[0095] S41: Input historical data and the acoustic signals collected in real time into the deep learning model, combine sensor data and environmental factors (such as temperature, humidity, etc.), and train the model to enable it to automatically identify the material type and infer the actual contact situation between the scissor blades and the material based on the physical properties of the material (such as hardness, density, thickness, etc.), thereby dynamically adjusting the scissor blade spacing.

[0096] S42: The deep learning model automatically adjusts the control strategy by analyzing the physical properties of the material and combining the frequency patterns reflected by the acoustic sensor. For example, for materials with higher hardness, the model predicts that the load on the scissor blades is larger, and the spacing needs to be appropriately increased to reduce excessive wear; for materials with higher density, the control strategy may need to adjust the cutting speed and spacing of the scissor blades to improve the cutting efficiency.

[0097] S43: When the environmental conditions (such as temperature, humidity, air pressure, etc.) change, the deep learning model automatically identifies the impact of these environmental factors on the scissor blade spacing control by obtaining the data of environmental sensors in real time and combining acoustic signals and material characteristics. For example, an increase in temperature may cause the scissor blade material to expand or deform, and a change in humidity may affect the friction characteristics of the material. The system automatically adjusts the model parameters through an online learning mechanism to dynamically adapt to these environmental changes.

[0098] S44: According to the environmental and material characteristics, the control system automatically updates the control strategy for the scissor blade spacing by adjusting the data fusion strategy. Specifically, the control system uses the actuator module (such as an electric drive or a pneumatic cylinder) to dynamically adjust the spacing of the scissor blades, ensuring that the scissor blades always maintain the best cutting performance under different environmental conditions and material characteristics, while avoiding excessive wear and energy consumption waste.

[0099] S45: The control system optimizes the deep learning model by continuously collecting and analyzing new data, and dynamically adjusts the control strategy according to the new working environment and the state of the scissor blades. Ensure that the system can always provide the optimal scissor blade spacing when the temperature, humidity, material type, etc. change, so as to achieve efficient and stable cutting performance.

[0100] Specifically, the dynamic adjustment formula for the scissor blade spacing is as follows:

[0101]

[0102] Where:

[0103] D(t): Represents the actual spacing of the scissor blades at time t, in millimeters (mm). This is the output value of the formula and is the scissor blade spacing that needs to be dynamically adjusted.
