[0002] Lubricators are indispensable tools in the maintenance of mechanical equipment. Their core function is to reduce friction, wear, and overheat by providing lubricants (such as oil or grease) to moving parts, thereby extending equipment life and improving operating efficiency.
[0003] Traditional lubricator systems typically rely on lubrication at fixed intervals. However, this approach has some significant disadvantages:
[0004] 1. The fixed refueling interval cannot be flexibly adjusted, which easily leads to inaccurate lubricating oil quantity, thereby causing problems of over- or under-refueling and affecting equipment operation;
[0005] 2. Traditional lubricator systems fail to take into account the actual operating status of the equipment or environmental changes, and therefore cannot flexibly respond to different working conditions;
[0006] 3. Fixed refueling cycles often cannot be optimized, which may lead to waste of lubricating oil and cannot be reasonably adjusted according to the needs of the equipment;
[0007] Based on the above shortcomings, an intelligent lubricator lubrication system and control method are proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0037] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easier to understand, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.
[0038] Reference Figure 1 As shown, an intelligent lubricator lubrication system includes:
[0039] Lubricator: used to receive commands issued by the system management platform and perform corresponding operations;
[0040] System management platform: communicates with the lubricator and the user respectively, is responsible for receiving the parameters set by the user, issuing commands to the lubricator, receiving the field information uploaded by the lubricator, and providing real-time feedback to the user;
[0041] User: Set parameters through the system management platform and receive real-time information feedback from the system management platform.
[0042] The commands issued by the system management platform include the lubrication cycle of the lubricator and the oil output of the oil cup. Users can set the lubrication cycle of the lubricator and the oil output of the oil cup. For example, the lubrication cycle is 1 month, and the oil output each time is about 4.17 ml. When the equipment installed with the lubricator stops running, the system management platform can detect that the equipment has stopped running through the equipment management system and issue instructions. The lubricator will stop automatic lubrication to avoid unnecessary lubrication operations.
[0043] An intelligent lubricator lubrication control method comprises the following steps:
[0044] S1. Collect real-time operating data of the lubricated equipment through sensors;
[0045] S2, building a lubrication monitoring model;
[0046] S3, using the historical operating data of the lubricated equipment as a training set to train the lubrication monitoring model;
[0047] S4. Input the collected real-time operation data into the trained lubrication monitoring model, output the feature vector Tensor1, input the normal operation data of the lubricated equipment into the trained lubrication monitoring model, output the feature vector Tensor2, and calculate the similarity θ between the two sets of vectors;
[0048] S5. Adjust the command to the lubricator according to the similarity θ.
[0049] In step S1 , the operating data includes the operating speed, the effective value of the operating vibration value, and the oil output of the lubricator oil cup.
[0050] In step S2, Figure 2 As shown, the lubrication monitoring model includes: an input layer for receiving input operation data;
[0051] At least one large block for processing input data;
[0052] A ReLU activation layer to introduce nonlinearity;
[0053] An SE-Large block for further processing of the data;
[0054] Output layer, used to output the processed feature vector;
[0055] Multiple large blocks and SE-Large blocks are arranged in a stacked manner, wherein the large block includes a dilated re-param block, at least one batch normalization layer (BN), a feedforward network (FNN) and a residual connection, and the SE-Large block includes a dilated re-param block, at least one batch normalization layer (BN), an SE module and a residual connection.
[0056] The dilated re-param block is composed of multiple parallel dilated convolutions combined into a larger dilated convolution. For example, 9x9 convolution Figure 3 As shown in
[15] , enhancing the ability of large kernels to capture sparse patterns (i.e., a pixel on the feature map may be more distantly related to its neighboring pixels) may produce higher quality features.
[0057] The feedforward network (FNN) consists of two fully connected layers with a GELU activation function in between, which is used to perform further nonlinear transformations on the input data. The commonly used ReLU activation function is replaced with the GELU activation function. Compared with the ReLU activation function, the GELU activation line number is smoother, which helps to improve the convergence speed and performance of the training process.
[0058] The SE module includes an average pooling layer (avg-pool), a RELU activation function, and a sigmoid activation function. The SE module focuses on the channel dimension of the feature map and assigns a weight to each channel, thereby strengthening important channels and suppressing irrelevant channels. It extracts the global information of each channel through avg-pool global average pooling and uses a scalar to describe the importance of each channel. By generating the weight of each channel through the activation function and two fully connected layers, the number of parameters and computations are relatively small, but the network's expressive power is significantly improved.
[0059] In step S3, the historical operating data of the lubricated equipment includes normal state data and abnormal state data of the equipment.
[0060] In step S4, Tensor1 = [T1, T2, .... Tn], Tensor2 = [T1', T2', .... Tn'], then the similarity θ calculation formula is:
[0061]
[0062] When using multiple sets of data for empirical value testing, when θ is within the normal range, it is judged that the bearing condition is within the normal range and the oil output of the lubricator's oil cup is normal. When the two sets of eigenvectors are very close, θ is outside the normal range and there is a problem with the operating data, reflecting that there is a problem with the oil output of the lubricator's oil cup and the oil output strategy needs to be changed.
[0063] Example
[0064] In this embodiment, the lubricated equipment is selected as the motor bearing. The system hardware includes a lubricator, a system management platform server, and a sensor (used to collect the operating speed of the motor bearing, the effective value of the operating vibration value, and the oil output of the lubricator oil cup). In terms of software, the system management platform runs on the server and uses a professional database management system to store equipment operation data.
[0065] The model is learned and processed for normal data, and through field data testing, it is found that when the similarity θ distance is between 0 and 5, it is within the normal range.
[0066] Real-time operating data of the motor bearings was collected for three periods of time, with each period lasting 5 minutes. A set of operating data was recorded every 30 seconds. The 10 sets of operating data for each period were input into the lubrication monitoring model to calculate the similarity θ. The average similarity θ for each period was then calculated. The results are shown in the following table.
[0067] Table 1: Operation data result judgment table
[0068] time distance Situation determination Lubrication real situation Paragraph 1 22.5 Abnormal operation Grease blockage Second paragraph 40.32 Abnormal operation Too little oil Paragraph 3 3.2 Normal operation Normal oil content
[0069] According to the experimental results in the table above, the average similarity distance in the first period was 22.5. The system judged it to be abnormal operation, but the actual condition was grease blockage. This shows that when the bearing is grease blocked, its operating data is quite different from the normal operating data. The model can keenly capture this difference and make an accurate judgment. The average similarity distance in the second period was 40.32. The system judged it to be abnormal operation, but the actual condition was too little grease. This shows that insufficient grease will significantly affect the operating characteristics of the bearing. The model can identify this abnormal state by analyzing the operating data. The average similarity distance in the third period was 3.2. The system judged it to be normal operation, but the actual condition was normal grease. This verifies that when the bearing is in good lubrication condition, its operating data is highly similar to the normal operating data.
[0070] It is understood from common technical knowledge that the present invention may be implemented by other embodiments that do not depart from its spirit or essential features. Therefore, the embodiments disclosed above are, in all respects, merely illustrative and not exclusive. All modifications within the scope of the present invention or equivalent to the scope of the present invention are intended to be encompassed by the present invention.
