Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of intelligent communication control, and particularly to an OCS fiber optic intelligent communication control method and system for a fully mechanized coal mining face in a coal mine. Background Technique

[0002] With the continuous development of coal mining technology and the improvement of the requirements for coal mine safety production, the traditional management and monitoring methods of coal mine equipment are difficult to meet the requirements of high efficiency, safety and intelligence in modern coal mine production. Especially during the operation of the fully mechanized coal mining face, the complexity of the equipment and the harshness of the working environment make the condition monitoring, fault diagnosis, operation control of the equipment and the safety guarantee of personnel urgent problems to be solved.

[0003] The traditional coal mine equipment monitoring system mainly relies on manual operation and a single equipment monitoring system. There is a lack of effective interconnection and communication between equipment, the information transmission speed is slow, and there are high costs for troubleshooting and maintenance. Due to the different communication protocols of each equipment, the data between equipment cannot be effectively shared, resulting in the need for manual diagnosis one by one during equipment fault troubleshooting, which seriously affects production efficiency. In addition, the coal mining face is often underground, restricted by complex terrain and communication environment, and it is difficult for traditional communication networks and monitoring systems to achieve stable data transmission and equipment operation. Therefore, it is necessary to design an OCS fiber optic intelligent communication control method and system for a fully mechanized coal mining face in a coal mine to improve production efficiency and safety. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an OCS fiber optic intelligent communication control method and system for a fully mechanized coal mining face in a coal mine to solve the problems raised in the above background technique.

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solution: An OCS fiber optic intelligent communication control method for a fully mechanized coal mining face in a coal mine, the method comprising the following steps: Step 1: Realize the interconnection and communication of the equipment on the fully mechanized coal mining face through an OCS gateway controller; Step 2: Access the signals of the shearer, scraper conveyor, crusher, loader, coal cutter and the communication telephone interlock on the working face through the OCS gateway controller to realize real-time monitoring of the equipment status information and emergency functions; Step 3: Map the status information of the hydraulic support to the digital twin model in real time through three-dimensional modeling and digital twin technology; Step 4: Perform fault location and coal cutting operations through the digital twin model; Step 5: Output the fault diagnosis result through the visualization module to achieve precise maintenance.

[0006] According to the above technical solution, the steps of realizing the interconnection and interoperability of the fully-mechanized mining face equipment through the OCS gateway controller include: Install the OCS gateway controller and fix it at the reserved position of the hydraulic support; Access multiple signal types, including Wi-Fi, Ethernet, CAN, RS485, audio, and fiber optic signals; Connect the OCS gateway controller to the fully-mechanized mining face equipment through a fiber composite hose cable; Conduct an insulation test after installation.

[0007] According to the above technical solution, the steps of realizing the real-time monitoring of equipment status information and emergency functions by accessing the signals of shearer, scraper conveyor, crusher, transfer machine, coal cutter, and the locking of the working face communication telephone through the OCS gateway controller include: Access the status information of each device through the OCS gateway controller, including shearer, scraper conveyor, crusher, transfer machine, and coal cutter; Configure the communication protocol of the device, and set the baud rate, data frame format, and priority; Set a high-priority channel for the emergency stop locking signal; Collect the emergency stop signal through the hardware interface, and the response delay is less than 10 milliseconds; Configure the working face communication telephone and the emergency locking signal and support the emergency stop function.

[0008] According to the above technical solution, the steps of mapping the status information of the hydraulic support to the digital twin model in real time through 3D modeling and digital twin technology include: Collect the structure and terrain data of the mine through laser scanning and topographic surveying and mapping means to construct a 3D view of the mine; Define the normal working range of the hydraulic support in the model, and the data outside this range is regarded as abnormal; Use the Simulink module to directly write the abnormal range as a threshold into the model.

[0009] According to the above technical solution, the steps of directly writing the abnormal range as a threshold into the model by using Simulink include: Collect the working data of the hydraulic support over a past period under normal working conditions, calculate the mean, standard deviation, maximum value, and minimum value of this data, and set a tolerance interval based on the normal data to define the normal fluctuation range. Data outside this interval is regarded as abnormal. When the mean of the hydraulic pressure under normal working conditions is 200 Mpa and the standard deviation is 5 Mpa, a tolerance interval of ±3 standard deviations is set at this time, that is, the abnormal range is defined as below 185 Mpa or above 215 Mpa. Finally, the abnormal range is directly written into the model as a threshold through the simulink module of MATLAB, and the mapping relationship between the status information of each hydraulic support and the model parameters is set in the platform. The hydraulic support pressure data is mapped to the hydraulic cylinder pressure display module, and the support pushing stroke data is mapped to the telescopic state of the support.

[0010] According to the above technical solution, the steps of fault location and coal cutting operation through the digital twin model include: When the status data of the hydraulic support is abnormal, the digital twin model automatically enters the fault simulation analysis process; Based on the abnormal data, conduct a preliminary fault judgment to lock potential faulty components, such as hydraulic cylinder leakage, oil circuit blockage, valve failure; Use the digital twin model to simulate each possible faulty component and analyze its performance under the current working conditions; When the simulation of a single component cannot explain all the abnormalities, the system enters the joint analysis of multiple components to simulate the comprehensive fault situation of the hydraulic cylinder, oil circuit, and valve; The system generates a fault diagnosis report based on the simulation results, pointing out the specific faulty components and their mutual influences; Through the digital twin model interface, directly issue commands on the remote operation platform to control the coal cutter, adjust the depth of the coal cutter, change the coal cutting direction, or select the coal cutting area.

[0011] According to the above technical solution, the steps of when the status data of the hydraulic support is abnormal and the digital twin model automatically enters the fault simulation analysis process include: When the hydraulic support pressure data is abnormal, the system first conducts a comparative analysis of the hydraulic cylinder leakage simulation and the pressure change trend. The system defaults that the hydraulic cylinder fails (such as seal damage or internal leakage), and the system will adjust the leakage coefficient inside the hydraulic cylinder , and calculate the simulated pressure value: , where: is the simulated pressure, is the flow rate in the hydraulic system, is the leakage coefficient of the hydraulic cylinder, is the resistance of the oil circuit, and the system will compare the simulated value with the real-time pressure value of the hydraulic support , compare them. When they match, the fault source is located in the hydraulic cylinder; otherwise, the fault comes from the next possible component, and the system continues to simulate the next component.

[0012] According to the above technical solution, the step of when the simulation of a single component cannot explain all anomalies and the system enters the joint analysis of multiple components to simulate the comprehensive fault situations of the hydraulic cylinder, oil circuit, and valve includes: When the simulation of a single component cannot explain all anomalies, the system will automatically enter the multi-component analysis. The system conducts joint simulation of multiple components through the relationships between components established by the digital twin model: The system assumes that multiple components are abnormal at the same time, adjusts the state parameters of the hydraulic cylinder, oil circuit, and valve in sequence, and calculates the matching degree between the simulated value and the abnormal data of the hydraulic support. Assuming that there are faults in both the hydraulic cylinder and the oil circuit at the same time, the system will apply the following formula to accumulate the abnormal values of each component and simulate the overall state of the system, that is: Total anomaly = , Where: is the simulated data value of each abnormal component, is the corresponding weight coefficient, indicating the influence degree of the anomaly of this component on the total fault. n is the number of faulty components. After the system adjusts the weights and simulation parameters, it finally selects the combination closest to the actual abnormal data and marks it as the collaborative fault source. This process is iterated repeatedly until the best match is found. After the system completes all fault simulations, it will generate a final fault diagnosis report, indicating the specific faulty components and their mutual influence situations.

[0013] According to the above technical solution, the steps of outputting the fault diagnosis result through the visualization module to achieve precise maintenance include: The digital twin interface displays the working state and fault location of the hydraulic support in real time, and the faulty components are highlighted; After the fault is confirmed, the system immediately sends an alarm signal to indicate the fault location through the alarm light; Based on the diagnosis report, the system generates maintenance suggestions and fault history records to gradually improve the accuracy of fault prediction and diagnosis.

[0014] According to the above technical solution, this method is used to implement an OCS fiber optic intelligent communication control system for a fully mechanized coal mining face in a coal mine. The system includes: The equipment interconnection and data transmission module is used to fuse the signals of the fully mechanized coal mining face equipment through the OCS gateway controller to achieve interconnection and data transmission between equipment; The equipment status monitoring and emergency stop locking module is used to achieve real-time monitoring of various equipment through the OCS gateway controller; 3D modeling and digital twin model integration module, which is used to achieve virtual mapping of fully mechanized coal mining face equipment and environment through 3D modeling and digital twin technologies, and provide real-time status monitoring, fault location and coal cutting operation functions.

They are used together with the embodiments of the present invention to explain the present invention, and do not constitute a limitation to the present invention. In the drawings: Figure 1 is a flowchart of the steps of a method for OCS fiber optic intelligent communication control of a coal mine fully mechanized coal mining face provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention; Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of the module composition of a system for OCS fiber optic intelligent communication control of a coal mine fully mechanized coal mining face provided in Embodiment 2 of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0017] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0018] Embodiment 1: Figure 1 is a flowchart of a method for OCS fiber optic intelligent communication control of a coal mine fully mechanized coal mining face provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention. This embodiment can be applied to scenarios such as coal mine equipment maintenance and remote automated coal cutting. This method can be executed by a system for OCS fiber optic intelligent communication control of a coal mine fully mechanized coal mining face provided in this embodiment, as Figure 1 shown. The method specifically includes the following steps: Step 1: Through the OCS gateway controller, achieve interconnection and interoperability of the fully mechanized coal mining face equipment; In the embodiment of the present invention, according to the actual requirements of the fully-mechanized coal mining face, signal fusion processing is achieved through the OCS gateway controller. The OCS gateway controller integrates functions such as multiple intrinsically safe power supplies, switches, audio processing modules, personnel positioning base station modules, data isolation and forwarding modules, etc. It can be compatible with and access multiple signals such as Wi-Fi, Ethernet, CAN, RS485, audio, and optical fiber. Install the OCS gateway controller at the reserved position of the hydraulic support and fix it with bolts. Before installation, check whether the installation point of the hydraulic support meets the protection requirements and clean the surface to ensure good contact. During the installation process, connect the power supply of the gateway controller to the support electrical system and connect the ground wire to complete the safety grounding. After installation, conduct an insulation test on the controller. Subsequently, lay the fiber optic composite hose cable, starting from the OCS gateway controller, and connect the shearer, scraper conveyor, crusher, transfer conveyor, coal cutter, and fully-mechanized coal mining face hydraulic support in sequence. During the laying process, plan the cable path along the equipment layout of the fully-mechanized coal mining face, and at the same time install a protective pipe to protect the cable; Exemplarily, connect the fiber optic composite hose cable to the OCS gateway controller and access the main equipment of the fully-mechanized coal mining face through the communication interface of the controller, including hydraulic supports, shearers, scraper conveyors, crushers, and transfer conveyors. Configure a unified communication protocol among the equipment to ensure that the status information and operation instructions of each equipment can be transmitted and responded to in real time through the fiber optic composite hose cable. At the same time, connect the working face communication phone and the locking data to the gateway controller, which is uniformly managed and distributed by the controller.

[0019] Step 2: Access the signals of the shearer, scraper conveyor, crusher, transfer conveyor, coal cutter, and the communication phone locking of the working face through the OCS gateway controller to achieve real-time monitoring of the equipment status information and emergency functions; In the embodiment of the present invention, according to the equipment interface types and communication protocols of the shearer, scraper conveyor, crusher, transfer conveyor, and coal cutter, connect the signal output ports of each equipment to the signal input ports of the OCS gateway controller through the fiber optic composite hose cable. In the OCS gateway controller, configure a separate communication address and parameters for each equipment, including baud rate, data frame format, protocol type, and priority. In addition, set a high-priority channel for the emergency stop locking signal with high real-time requirements. Configure and analyze the status monitoring parameters of each equipment, and achieve real-time acquisition through the mapping between the gateway controller and the equipment signal interface: Exemplarily, the working voltage and current of the drive motor are collected in real time to evaluate the equipment operation load and energy consumption. The temperatures of the drive motor and the main reduction gear are collected to monitor whether the equipment is within the safe operating temperature range. The position of the shearer in the working face trajectory is determined by using an encoder or a laser ranging device, and the resolution can be adjusted according to the working conditions (such as 0.1 m). The current working mode of the shearer (such as coal cutting, shutdown, standby) and its corresponding step length and cutting parameters are collected. The inclination angle and rotation angle of the shearer are collected through an inertial navigation sensor to ensure that the equipment attitude is consistent with the preset trajectory. At the same time, the working face communication phone and the emergency stop lock signal are connected to ensure unobstructed voice communication during the operation of each device and provide the function of stopping the device in case of emergency. The emergency stop signal is collected through a hardware interface directly connected to a high-priority interrupt channel, and the response delay is less than 10 ms.

[0020] Exemplarily, a one-key emergency stop function is configured in the control center to quickly stop the equipment operation through a hardware interrupt signal. When the emergency call signal is detected by the working face communication phone, an emergency stop command is automatically sent to the OCS gateway controller to achieve the linkage emergency stop of all equipment in the line. In the real operation environment, the alarm response time and the emergency stop lock function are tested to ensure that the alarm delay does not exceed the set value (such as 200 ms) and the emergency stop response meets the design requirements (<10 ms).

[0021] Step 3: The state information of the hydraulic support is mapped into the digital twin model in real time through 3D modeling and digital twin technology; In the embodiment of the present invention, the signal of the hydraulic support controller is accessed through the OCS gateway controller to monitor the state information of the hydraulic support in real time, such as: support number, support pressure, support pushing stroke, support height, support retracting and extending the rib protection state, support attitude. Subsequently, the structure and terrain data in the mine are collected through surveying and mapping means such as laser scanning and topographic survey. The data covers all key structures, support positions and channel layouts in the mine. Then, the surveying and mapping data is sorted out and format converted to make it suitable for input into 3D modeling tools. After coordinate conversion and data cleaning, finally, a 3D view of the mine is constructed by using 3D modeling software according to the preprocessed surveying and mapping data. The structures such as channels, branches, key equipment and supports inside the mine are represented in the model and restored according to the actual proportion. In the 3D mine model, the position of each hydraulic support is accurately calibrated. According to the actual installation angle and azimuth information of the support, corresponding positioning and calibration are carried out in the model. When the mine terrain changes greatly or the structure is relatively complex, the model needs to be further refined, and information such as mine shafts, entrances and exits, and exhaust channels is added to the model; Exemplarily, according to the usage situation and material characteristics of the support, mechanical properties including mass, center of gravity, stiffness, damping coefficient, etc. are set in the three-dimensional mine model. For the hydraulic cylinder and each joint, the telescopic range of the support rod is set to 0 - 1000 mm, and the inclination angle is set to an active range of -10 degrees to +10 degrees. Subsequently, the three-dimensional mine model is imported into the digital twin platform. At this time, a data stream channel from the OCS gateway controller to the twin platform is established using the MQTT protocol to achieve the communication connection between the hydraulic support data and the twin model; Exemplarily, the normal working range of the state information of the hydraulic support is defined in the digital twin model. The specific method is as follows: Collect the working data of the hydraulic support in the normal working state over a period of time, calculate the average value, standard deviation, maximum value, and minimum value of this data, and set a tolerance interval based on the normal data to define the normal fluctuation range. Data outside this interval is regarded as abnormal. For example, the average value of the hydraulic pressure is 200 Mpa, and the standard deviation is 5 Mpa. A tolerance interval of ±3 standard deviations is set, that is, the abnormal range is defined as below 185 Mpa or above 215 Mpa. Finally, the abnormal range is directly written into the model as a threshold through the simulink module of MATLAB, and the mapping relationship between the state information of each hydraulic support and the model parameters is set in the platform. For example, the hydraulic support pressure data is mapped to the hydraulic cylinder pressure display module, and the support pushing stroke data is mapped to the telescopic state of the support, so that the digital twin model is bound to the real-time state data of the hydraulic support to ensure that the model state is synchronized with the actual working state in real time.

[0022] Step Four: Perform fault location and coal cutting operations through the digital twin model; In the embodiment of the present invention, when the real-time state data of the hydraulic support is abnormal, the digital twin model will automatically enter the fault simulation analysis process. First, preliminary abnormal identification is performed. The system makes a preliminary fault judgment based on the abnormal situation of the hydraulic support state data, such as a sudden drop in the hydraulic cylinder pressure, flow rate fluctuation, support inclination deviation, etc. Each abnormal type corresponds to one or more possible fault sources. For example: The pressure drop may be caused by hydraulic cylinder leakage, oil circuit blockage, valve failure, etc.; The flow rate reduction may be caused by oil circuit blockage, flow valve abnormality, hydraulic pump efficiency decline, etc.; The displacement deviation may indicate a failure of the support telescopic component or a malfunction of the hydraulic cylinder stroke control; The preliminary identification helps the system lock a series of potential faulty components. Subsequently, the digital twin model simulates each possible faulty component one by one to analyze its working state under the current conditions. The specific steps are as follows: When the pressure data of the hydraulic support is abnormal, the system first conducts a comparative analysis of the hydraulic cylinder leakage simulation and the pressure change trend. The system defaults that a hydraulic cylinder failure occurs (such as seal damage or internal leakage), and the system will adjust the leakage coefficient in the hydraulic cylinder , and calculate the simulated pressure value: , where: is the simulated pressure, is the flow rate in the hydraulic system, is the leakage coefficient of the hydraulic cylinder, is the resistance of the oil circuit. The system will compare the simulated value with the pressure value of the real-time hydraulic support . When the two match, the fault source is located in the hydraulic cylinder; otherwise, the fault comes from the next possible component, and the system will continue to simulate the next component at this time; Exemplarily, when the simulation of a single component cannot explain all the anomalies, the system will automatically enter the multi-component analysis. The system uses the relationships between components established by the digital twin model to conduct multi-component joint simulation: The system assumes that multiple components are abnormal at the same time, and sequentially adjusts the state parameters of components such as hydraulic cylinders, oil circuits, and valves, and calculates the matching degree between the simulated value and the abnormal data of the hydraulic support. Assuming that there are faults in both the hydraulic cylinder and the oil circuit at the same time, the system will apply the following formula to accumulate the abnormal values of each component to simulate the overall state of the system, that is: Total anomaly = , where: is the simulated data value of each abnormal component, is the corresponding weight coefficient, indicating the influence degree of the anomaly of this component on the total fault. n is the number of faulty components. After the system adjusts the weights and simulation parameters, it finally selects the combination closest to the actual abnormal data and marks it as the collaborative fault source. This process is iterated repeatedly until the best match is found. After the system completes all fault simulations, it will generate a final fault diagnosis report, indicating the specific faulty components and their mutual influence situations.

[0023] Exemplarily, the user can also view the operating status of the fully mechanized coal mining face equipment in real time through the digital twin model interface, including the position of the roadheader, the status of the hydraulic support, and the distribution of the coal seam. The user can directly issue commands on the remote operation platform to control the roadheader, adjust the depth of the roadheader, change the coal cutting direction, or select the coal cutting area. The operation commands are transmitted to the control system through the network and then transmitted to the underground equipment through optical fiber signals to control the movement of the roadheader. At the same time, the system combines three-dimensional modeling with mine terrain data, uses a path optimization algorithm to plan the optimal coal cutting path for the roadheader, and dynamically adjusts the coal cutting depth and path according to the coal seam hardness, support position, and working environment to maximize the operation efficiency and energy utilization rate.

[0024] Step 5: Output the fault diagnosis result through the visualization module to achieve precise maintenance; In the embodiment of the present invention, the system displays the working state and fault location of the hydraulic support in real time through the digital twin interface. The faulty components are highlighted in the visualization model, and at the same time, the parameter changes of the fault are displayed (such as the numerical changes of pressure and flow rate). The faulty parts will be displayed in red or other prominent markings in the 3D mine view. Through means such as color and graphic markings, maintenance personnel can determine the exact location of the faulty components at a glance and view their fault types. When the fault is confirmed, the system immediately sends an alarm signal, including various notification methods such as displaying an alarm notice on the console and an audible and visual alarm device, so that the duty personnel can learn about the occurrence of the fault in the first time. At the same time, a fault alarm light is installed on each hydraulic support, and the system controls the alarm light of the faulty support to light up through instructions to indicate to the maintenance personnel to quickly locate; Exemplarily, based on the diagnostic report, the system will generate maintenance suggestions, such as the seals to be replaced and the list of components to be inspected. The results of each fault diagnosis will be automatically recorded and stored in the fault history library. Subsequent fault analysis can refer to this historical record to optimize the digital twin model of the system and gradually improve the accuracy of fault prediction and diagnosis.
