[0002] As an important part of the vertical transportation system, escalators are widely used in densely populated places such as subways, airports, and shopping malls. Their safe operation is directly related to the safety of public travel and the efficiency of urban transportation. However, traditional escalator safety protection technologies are difficult to meet the modern operation and maintenance requirements. Especially in scenarios of abnormal passenger behavior, equipment aging, and high-frequency use, escalators are more likely to cause safety accidents. Therefore, building an intelligent and full-cycle operation monitoring and prevention and control system has become an inevitable trend to improve the safety and reliability of escalators.
[0003] Current escalator monitoring technologies mainly rely on mechanical sensors and regular manual inspections, which have significant limitations: First, single-point monitoring cannot cover complex working conditions; second, offline analysis is difficult to capture instantaneous faults; finally, the early warning model lacks self-adaptability, resulting in insufficient accident prevention capabilities. In recent years, the breakthroughs in Internet of Things, edge computing, and machine learning technologies have provided a new direction for the industry. The present invention proposes an intelligent monitoring and prevention and control method and system for the operating conditions of escalators. By constructing a multi-dimensional sensor network and combining a fault prediction model based on deep learning, it realizes real-time perception of equipment status, intelligent identification of abnormal behaviors, and hierarchical early warning responses, effectively overcoming the deficiencies of traditional technologies, significantly improving the safety and reliability of escalator operation, effectively reducing the failure rate and accident risks, ensuring the personal safety of passengers, improving operation efficiency, and providing solid technical support for the normal operation of urban public transportation and commercial venues.

At this time, the third set of data Then this set of data is normal, and the second and fourth sets of data are screened out as abnormal data in the same way;
[0088] Taking the second set of data as an example, for the scanned data - the distance that the passenger extends out of the guardrail is 0.39 m, which is greater than the first-level danger threshold of 0.25 m, it is determined as an abnormal passenger behavior and a first-level anomaly. For the operating data - the vibration intensity is 4.8 m / s 2 which is greater than the first-level danger threshold of 4.5 m / s 2 and for the operating data - the variance is 2.8, which is greater than the first-level danger threshold of 2.5, it is determined as an abnormal machine operation and a first-level anomaly;

[0121] When receiving passenger-type dangerous situations and level-1 abnormal signals, only perform voice broadcast;
[0122] When receiving passenger-type dangerous situations and level-2 risk signals, perform voice broadcast, personnel management, and type-II braking;
[0123] When receiving equipment-type dangerous situations and level-1 abnormal signals, perform voice broadcast, personnel management, and type-I braking; The specific operation of the type-I braking is to reduce the elevator running speed by 50%;
[0124] When receiving equipment-type dangerous situations and level-2 risk signals, perform voice broadcast, personnel management, and type-II braking; The specific operation of the type-II braking is to perform progressive braking until the elevator stops. The corresponding cubic spline interpolation speed curve is:
[0125] v(t) = b1(t - t0) 3 + b2(t - t0) 2 + b0
[0126] where v(t) is the elevator running speed, b0, b1, and b2 are undetermined coefficients, t0 is the starting time of braking, and t is the target braking time;
[0127] The dangerous situations include abnormal machine operation, machine structure defects, abnormal passenger behavior, and dangerous passenger behavior; The danger levels include level-1 abnormal and level-2 risk;
[0128] In the actual evaluation, taking the intelligent monitoring and prevention and control of the operation status of an escalator in a certain shopping mall as an example, the warning results corresponding to the second group of data are as follows: abnormal passenger behavior (body extending out of the guardrail), abnormal machine operation (excessive vibration intensity and noise), and machine structure defects (abnormal at the deformed comb plate), all of which are first-level abnormalities. The control center triggers the prevention and control strategy according to the received warning results: first, a voice broadcast is made to prompt "Please do not rely on the handrail or extend your body out of the handrail, pay attention to safety" and "The machine is operating abnormally, do not continue to take the elevator". At the same time, a type of braking is carried out to reduce the elevator operating speed by 50%, and the management staff is notified to arrive at the scene to remind passengers and check for machine abnormalities. When no warning results are generated, the management staff sends a reset signal to resume the operation of the escalator;
[0129] The warning results corresponding to the fourth group of data are as follows: dangerous passenger behavior (body extending out of the guardrail, passengers going against the flow), abnormal machine operation (passenger load), both of which are second-level abnormalities. The control center triggers the prevention and control strategy according to the received warning results: first, a voice broadcast is made to prompt "It is strictly prohibited to climb over the handrail, it is very dangerous", "Do not go against the flow when taking the elevator, please turn around immediately", and "You are seriously overweight, do not crowd". At the same time, a type of braking is carried out to perform a progressive braking until the elevator stops (the elevator operating speed v(t)=-0.05t 3 +0.1t 2 +0.6, and the elevator stops after 3 seconds), and the management staff is notified to arrive at the scene to stop the dangerous behavior of passengers. When no warning results are generated, the management staff sends a reset signal to resume the operation of the escalator.
[0130] Secondly, an intelligent monitoring and prevention and control system for the operation status of an escalator includes:
[0131] Camera module: used to determine the optimal installation parameters and install high-definition cameras in the escalator operation area, and obtain the images of the escalator operation status through the cameras;
[0132] Data monitoring module: used to obtain the escalator scan data and operation data, screen the scan data and operation data using a hypersphere to obtain abnormal data, and determine the warning results according to the abnormal data and the danger threshold;
[0133] Image monitoring module: used to perform image correction on the operation status images to obtain corrected operation status images, and input the corrected operation status images into a pre-trained escalator danger recognition model to obtain warning results;
[0134] Protection control module: used to transmit the warning results, the abnormal data, and the operation status images to the control center and store them, and the control center executes the prevention and control strategy according to the warning results;
[0135] Management module: used to store, manage, and view the warning results, the abnormal data, and the operation status images, analyze and statistically process the stored data, classify and manage the data to ensure data integrity and security, and at the same time be able to perform data backup and recovery operations.
[0136] The present invention can automatically stop the escalator or reduce the running speed when solving passenger abnormal behaviors and serious equipment defects. For example, when it is found that an old person has fallen or a child's hands or feet are caught, the escalator can be automatically stopped in time to prevent the expansion of injuries. Due to different control methods, some escalators can reduce the speed until they stop, while some cannot reduce the speed and can only stop. For escalators with variable frequency control, the running speed can be slowly reduced until they stop. For escalators without variable frequency control, voice prompts can be used and they can be directly stopped after a delay (such as 3 seconds). After the escalator fails and stops, only manual on-site confirmation of safety work can be carried out, and it can be manually started.
[0137] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
