Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of intelligent control technology for coal mines, and in particular to an intelligent control system and method for coal mines. Background Technology
[0002] In current coal mine production management, the terminals of various business subsystems are mostly scattered in the offices of different business departments and work teams. The dispatch center lacks a centralized display of the operating status of each system, making it impossible to achieve centralized monitoring of the entire mine's production status. At the same time, each system operates independently, making information sharing difficult and creating an "information silo" phenomenon, which seriously restricts the improvement of management efficiency.
[0003] Existing technologies have several drawbacks: In terms of cost-effectiveness, the lack of a unified data center necessitates the separate purchase of data terminals for each subsystem during construction, leading to redundant equipment investment and resource waste. Furthermore, each system operates independently, requiring dedicated personnel for management, further increasing labor costs. Regarding energy efficiency, the working face and various coal transport systems, as well as the main coal flow and surface coal transport systems, operate independently without coordinated control. This often results in prolonged periods of idle operation for some equipment, causing significant energy waste. In terms of safety, video surveillance information from the dispatch center is not shared with each system, creating blind spots in the monitoring of each system's independent operation. Management personnel cannot fully grasp the real-time operational status of the equipment, posing potential risks to coal mine safety.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an intelligent coal mine management and control system and method that can break down "information silos," achieve centralized monitoring, and improve cost, energy, and safety benefits. Summary of the Invention
[0005] This invention provides an intelligent management and control system and method for coal mines. By coordinating various modules, it breaks down "information silos," realizes centralized management and control of the entire mine's data and linkage between various systems, improves safety, cost and energy efficiency, and enhances the overall informatization and intelligence level of coal mine management.
[0006] This invention provides an intelligent control system for coal mines, comprising a data acquisition module, a data transmission module, a data storage and processing module, a GIS map module, a comprehensive business management module, an emergency management module, and a dispatch center display module. The data acquisition module is connected to the data transmission module, the data transmission module is connected to the data storage and processing module, the data storage and processing module is connected to the GIS map module, the comprehensive business management module, and the emergency management module, respectively, the GIS map module is also connected to the comprehensive business management module and the dispatch center display module, the comprehensive business management module is also connected to the emergency management module and the dispatch center display module, and the emergency management module is also connected to the dispatch center display module.
[0007] The data acquisition module serves as the starting point for data flow, comprehensively collecting various key data from the coal mine and transmitting them uniformly to the data storage and processing module via the data transmission module. These key data include safety monitoring data, production operation data, personnel dynamic data, geological and hydrological data, and basic operational data.
[0008] The data storage and processing module classifies and stores various types of key data, and uses the distributed storage technology of the hyper-converged server to ensure the storage and retrieval of massive amounts of data. Finally, the processed key data is provided to the GIS map module, the comprehensive business management module, and the emergency management module respectively.
[0009] The GIS One Map module extracts geological and hydrological data, production and operation data, personnel dynamic data and geospatial information and combines them to construct a three-dimensional visualization map of the mine. It interacts with the comprehensive business management module and emergency management module to provide them with spatial visualization data display and analysis support, and provides three-dimensional map and other information to the dispatch center display module.
[0010] The integrated business management module extracts various key data and combines them with the 3D visualization map to perform safety management, production scheduling, ventilation and fire prevention management, geological surveying and water control, electromechanical transportation, mining management, monitoring and surveillance, and business management, and displays the data through the dispatch center display module.
[0011] The emergency management module is used to receive safety warning signals issued by the integrated business management module, combine the personnel dynamic data, production operation data, geological and hydrological data and spatial information of the GIS map module to specify emergency response plans, allocate emergency resources, track the emergency response process, and transmit them to the dispatch center display module for monitoring.
[0012] The dispatch center display module is used to receive and display information from various modules. At the same time, dispatchers can issue dispatch instructions to the integrated business management module through the dispatch center display module, forming an interactive closed loop.
[0013] Furthermore, the data acquisition module is directly connected to various sensors, monitoring equipment, and data interfaces, and transmits various key data to the data transmission module in real time through industrial Ethernet and wireless transmission technology, forming a data input link;
[0014] Various sensors, including sensor networks deployed underground and on the surface of coal mines, such as gas sensors, equipment status sensors, personnel locators, and geological detectors, collect real-time safety monitoring data, production operation data, personnel dynamic data, geological and hydrological data, and basic operational data, and simultaneously complete data format standardization processing during the collection process.
[0015] Furthermore, the data transmission module selects a transmission method based on the real-time requirements and importance of the safety monitoring data, production operation data, personnel dynamic data, geological and hydrological data, and basic operational data collected by the data acquisition module, so as to transmit various key data to the data storage and processing module. During the transmission process, various key data are encrypted and verified to ensure data integrity and security.
[0016] Furthermore, the GIS single-map module constructs a three-dimensional visualization map of the mine, specifically including:
[0017] Geological and hydrological data, production operation data, and personnel dynamic data are obtained from the data storage and processing module, and format conversion and verification are performed to ensure that the data conforms to the spatial data standards of the GIS system.
[0018] Based on the actual terrain and tunnel design data of the mine, a basic geospatial framework is constructed. Through 3D modeling technology, the direction, slope, and cross-sectional dimensions of the tunnels are transformed into a 3D model to form the basic spatial skeleton of the mine. At the same time, the surface terrain data is integrated with the underground spatial framework to achieve an integrated spatial display of the surface and underground.
[0019] For geological and hydrological data, a 3D model of the coal seam is constructed based on its 3D coordinates and attribute information. The thickness variation and geological structure of the coal seam are displayed through different colors and transparency. For production and operation data, the 3D coordinates of the equipment are associated with the equipment model to accurately locate the equipment in the geospatial framework. The operating status of the equipment is displayed in real time through color changes or dynamic icons. For personnel dynamic data, the real-time coordinates of personnel are presented as dynamic points on the 3D map.
[0020] The coal seam model, roadway framework, equipment model, and personnel locations are rendered using 3D rendering technology to enhance the visual effect and three-dimensionality of the map. Multiple perspective switching options and interactive functions are also set up to complete the construction of a 3D visualization map of the mine.
[0021] Furthermore, the integrated business management module includes a safety management unit, a production scheduling unit, a ventilation and fire prevention management unit, a geological survey and water control unit, an electromechanical transportation unit, a mining management unit, a monitoring and control unit, and an operations management unit;
[0022] The safety management unit uses the safety monitoring data for safety management to monitor the mine's safety status in real time, and sets up an early warning system to be issued when the safety monitoring data exceeds a set value, and transmits the early warning signal to the emergency management module.
[0023] The production scheduling unit performs production scheduling based on the production operation data and personnel dynamic data to arrange production tasks, configure production plans, and dynamically adjust mining and transportation tasks.
[0024] The ventilation and safety management unit combines the safety monitoring data and production operation data to manage ventilation and safety, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the ventilation system.
[0025] The geological and hydrological data-based water control unit manages geological and hydrological water control to predict and prevent geological disasters and water hazards, and generates proposed water control engineering schemes.
[0026] The electromechanical transportation unit manages electromechanical transportation based on the production operation data to monitor equipment health status, generate maintenance work orders, and track execution progress.
[0027] The mining management unit performs mining management based on the production operation data and geological and hydrological data to generate mining plans and monitor mining progress.
[0028] The monitoring and control unit integrates various monitoring data for monitoring and control, so as to fully grasp the mine's operating status, and centrally displays the monitoring data of all monitoring points in the mine through the dispatch center display module;
[0029] The business management unit uses the aforementioned business-related basic data for business management, providing a basis for business decision-making.
[0030] Furthermore, the safety management unit utilizes safety monitoring data for safety management, determines real-time safety risk values based on the monitoring data, and conducts risk warnings using a pre-set intelligent early warning model for coal mine safety risks based on these real-time safety risk values; specifically,
[0031] The real-time security risk value determined based on the aforementioned security monitoring data includes:
[0032] Based on coal mine safety regulations and the actual risk characteristics of mines, core indicators directly related to mine safety were selected from safety monitoring data, including gas indicators, environmental indicators, equipment status indicators, and support and structural indicators.
[0033] The safety monitoring indicators were assigned weights based on the degree of impact of each core indicator on safety risks, using expert evaluation and analytic hierarchy process.
[0034] Set multiple threshold levels for each core indicator, corresponding to different risk levels, and specify the risk level score for each interval;
[0035] The real-time collected safety monitoring data is standardized and transformed to map the raw data to the corresponding risk level score range;
[0036] The weighted summation method is used to calculate the comprehensive safety risk value. The formula is: Safety risk value = ∑(risk score of individual indicator × weight of corresponding indicator);
[0037] Safety monitoring data is updated at set intervals, synchronously repeating the above standardized processing and weighted calculation process, and refreshing the safety risk value in real time. When the risk value exceeds the medium risk threshold, an early warning mechanism is triggered. The alarm is displayed on the LED screen through the dispatch center display module, and the early warning information is pushed to the terminals of relevant management personnel, realizing real-time monitoring and rapid response to safety risks.
[0038] Furthermore, in the safety management unit, risk warning is conducted using a preset intelligent early warning model for coal mine safety risks based on the real-time safety risk value. The preset intelligent early warning model for coal mine safety risks includes:
[0039] A safety risk early warning model for coal mine risk prediction is established using the multiple linear regression method, with the risk prediction value defined as Q = (q1, q2, ..., q n The true risk value is Y = (y1, y2, ..., y). n The risk characteristic index factors are X = (x1, x2, ..., x...). n If so, the model is constructed as follows:
[0040] Q = θ × X
[0041]
[0042] After establishing a safety risk early warning model, the accuracy of the model is evaluated. Through the calculation and analysis of risk patterns, the deviation between the predicted risk value and the actual risk value is obtained, with the error E = (e1, e2, ..., e n ) is represented as:
[0043] E = QY
[0044] Substituting the above formula, we get:
[0045] E = θ × XY
[0046] To evaluate this model, its standard error function J is expressed as the average of the sum of squared errors, i.e.:
[0047]
[0048] When the error function J is minimized, the parameter θ of the safety risk warning model Q = θ × X is optimal, resulting in the most accurate safety risk warning model.
[0049] This invention also provides a method for intelligent management and control of coal mines, based on the intelligent management and control system for coal mines described above, the method specifically comprising:
[0050] S1. The data acquisition module collects various key data in real time through various sensors and data interfaces according to the set acquisition frequency, including safety monitoring data, production operation data, personnel dynamic data, geological and hydrological data, and basic data related to operation.
[0051] S2. The data transmission module organizes and encapsulates the collected key data, and transmits the key data to the data storage and processing module according to the data type and real-time requirements using a preset transmission method and path.
[0052] S3, the data storage and processing module classifies and stores the received key data according to data type and time, and uses big data analysis algorithms to process the data. It also uses the distributed storage technology of the hyperconverged server to ensure the storage and retrieval of massive amounts of data.
[0053] S4, the integrated business management module calls various types of data processed by the data storage and processing module, including safety management, production scheduling, ventilation and fire prevention management, geological surveying and water control, electromechanical transportation, mining management, monitoring and control, and business management. At the same time, the GIS map module integrates geological and hydrological data, production operation data, personnel dynamic data and geospatial information to generate a three-dimensional visualization map to assist in integrated business management. The dispatch center display module displays the business data and visualization map information of the integrated business management module through an LED screen for dispatchers to monitor in real time.
[0054] S5. When the integrated business management module discovers safety hazards by analyzing safety monitoring data or receives a report of an emergency, it immediately transmits the relevant information to the emergency management module. The emergency management module uses personnel dynamic data, production operation data, geological and hydrological data, combined with spatial information, to formulate an emergency response plan and displays the progress of the response in real time through the dispatch center display module.
[0055] S6. Based on the various information displayed in the dispatch center display module, dispatchers issue dispatch instructions to the comprehensive business management module through the workstation terminal system to adjust production plans, arrange equipment maintenance, and direct personnel operations. Each module feeds back the execution results to the data storage and processing module and the dispatch center display module, forming dynamic management and closed-loop monitoring.
[0056] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:
[0057] This invention effectively breaks down the "information silos" phenomenon of traditional coal mine subsystems through the coordinated operation of various modules. It realizes centralized collection, transmission, storage, and processing of data across the entire mine. The dispatch center can centrally monitor the operating status of each system through the dispatch center display module, comprehensively grasp the equipment operation status, eliminate monitoring blind spots, and improve safety and efficiency. Through a unified data storage and processing module and centralized management mode, it avoids the duplication of equipment investment and increased labor costs caused by purchasing terminals and assigning dedicated personnel to manage each subsystem separately, thus optimizing cost-effectiveness. At the same time, the integrated business management module, combined with a 3D visualization map, enables the linkage control of various transportation systems, reduces equipment idle operation, reduces energy waste, improves energy efficiency, and comprehensively enhances the informatization and intelligence level of coal mine management.

[0061] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.
[0062] like Figure 1 As shown, this invention provides an intelligent control system for coal mines, including a data acquisition module, a data transmission module, a data storage and processing module, a GIS map module, a comprehensive business management module, an emergency management module, and a dispatch center display module. The data acquisition module is connected to the data transmission module, the data transmission module is connected to the data storage and processing module, the data storage and processing module is connected to the GIS map module, the comprehensive business management module, and the emergency management module, respectively, the GIS map module is also connected to the comprehensive business management module and the dispatch center display module, the comprehensive business management module is also connected to the emergency management module and the dispatch center display module, and the emergency management module is also connected to the dispatch center display module.
[0063] (1) Data acquisition module
[0064] The data acquisition module, as the starting point of data flow, is used to comprehensively collect various key data from the coal mine and transmit them uniformly to the data storage and processing module through the data transmission module. These key data include safety monitoring data, production operation data, personnel dynamic data, geological and hydrological data, and basic operational data. Specifically,
[0065] The data acquisition module is directly connected to various sensors, monitoring equipment, and data interfaces. It transmits various key data in real time to the data transmission module via industrial Ethernet and wireless transmission technologies (5G, Wi-Fi), forming a data input link. The various sensors include a sensor network deployed underground and on the surface of the coal mine, including gas sensors, equipment status sensors, personnel locators, and geological detectors. These sensors collect real-time safety monitoring data, production operation data, personnel dynamic data, geological and hydrological data, and other basic operational data, and simultaneously perform data format standardization processing during the acquisition process. Specific data content is as follows:
[0066] a. Safety monitoring data: such as real-time parameters related to mine safety, including gas concentration, carbon monoxide content, wind speed, temperature, and dust concentration.
[0067] b. Production operation data: operating status of mining equipment (such as the cutting speed of the coal mining machine and the working resistance of the hydraulic support), operating parameters of transportation equipment (such as the speed and capacity of the belt conveyor), start-up and shutdown status and operating data of auxiliary equipment such as ventilation fans and water pumps, etc.
[0068] c. Personnel dynamic data: Real-time location, movement trajectory, attendance, and work group information of underground coal mine workers.
[0069] d. Geological and hydrological data: coal seam thickness, dip angle, strike, geological structure (faults, folds, etc.), underground water inflow, water level changes, water quality, and other data.
[0070] e. Basic operational data: Procurement, warehousing, and outbound information of materials; equipment maintenance costs; personnel attendance information and salary data; coal production, sales volume, and sales price data.
[0071] (2) Data transmission module
[0072] The data transmission module acts as a "highway" for data, ensuring the secure and efficient flow of collected data. One end connects to the data acquisition module, receiving various types of data transmitted from it; the other end connects to the data storage and processing module, passing the data to that module for storage and processing, ensuring the data securely enters the storage and processing stages.
[0073] The data transmission module collects safety monitoring data, production operation data, personnel dynamic data, geological and hydrological data, and basic operational data from the data acquisition module. Based on the data's real-time requirements and importance, it selects the transmission method (e.g., industrial Ethernet, fieldbus, wireless communication). For example, a layered transmission strategy is adopted, prioritizing the transmission of high-real-time safety data (e.g., gas exceedance signals) via a low-latency industrial bus, while using compression transmission technology to save bandwidth for batch historical data (e.g., equipment operation logs). Simultaneously, it integrates data encryption and verification mechanisms to prevent data leakage or tampering during transmission, ensuring data integrity and security. Finally, the data is transmitted securely, stably, and efficiently to the data storage and processing module. During transmission, data encryption and verification are performed to ensure data integrity and security.
[0074] (3) Data storage and processing module
[0075] The data storage and processing module receives data streams from the data transmission module and completes storage; it interacts with the integrated business management module, GIS map module, etc. through data interfaces to provide cleaned and analyzed structured data services.
[0076] The data storage and processing module categorizes and stores various key data types, and utilizes the distributed storage technology of the hyperconverged server to ensure reliable storage and rapid retrieval of massive amounts of data. Ultimately, the processed key data is provided to the GIS map module, comprehensive business management module, and emergency management module, providing data support for their operation. Specifically, big data analytics and algorithms are used to process various key data types. For example, real-time analysis of safety monitoring data is performed to determine the existence of potential safety hazards; production operation data is mined to analyze factors affecting production efficiency and provide a basis for production optimization; personnel dynamic data is statistically analyzed to rationally allocate personnel work; geological and hydrological data is modeled and analyzed to predict the risk of geological disasters; and basic operational data is calculated and analyzed to support cost control and operational decision-making.
[0077] The data storage and processing module, acting as the "data hub," possesses massive data storage and intelligent analysis capabilities. Based on a hyperconverged server, it constructs a distributed storage architecture that supports the mixed storage of structured data (equipment parameter tables), semi-structured data (XML format logs), and unstructured data (geological 3D models). Through big data analytics engines (such as Spark), it processes dynamic data in real time, generating safety warning indicators, production efficiency parameters, and more. It also utilizes machine learning algorithms to uncover patterns in historical data, constructing equipment failure prediction models and cost optimization models to provide data support for business decisions.
[0078] (4) GIS One Map Module
[0079] The GIS One Map module is connected to the data storage and processing module to acquire geological and hydrological data, production and operation data, personnel dynamic data, etc.; it interacts with the comprehensive business management module and emergency management module to provide them with spatial visualization data display and analysis support, and provides 3D maps and other information to the dispatch center display module.
[0080] The GIS One-Map module combines geological and hydrological data (coal seam distribution, geological structure), production operation data (equipment location), and personnel dynamic data (real-time personnel location) provided by the data storage and processing module with geospatial information to construct a 3D visualization map of the mine. This map intuitively displays information such as the mine's roadway layout, equipment distribution, personnel location, and geological structure, providing spatial reference and visualization support for comprehensive business management and emergency management. For example, the map allows for quick location of areas with excessive methane concentrations and viewing of personnel distribution within those areas.
[0081] Constructing a 3D visualization map specifically includes:
[0082] 1) Obtain geological and hydrological data (such as the three-dimensional coordinates, thickness, and dip angle of coal seams), production operation data (such as the installation location coordinates and operating status parameters of equipment), and personnel dynamic data (such as the real-time coordinates of personnel carrying positioning devices) from the data storage and processing module. Perform format conversion and verification on these data to ensure that the data conforms to the spatial data standards of the GIS system. For example, convert the original coordinates of equipment locations into three-dimensional coordinates under a unified mine coordinate system, and remove outliers in the geological and hydrological data.
[0083] 2) Geospatial Framework Construction: Based on the actual terrain and tunnel design data of the mine, a basic geospatial framework is constructed. Using 3D modeling technology, information such as the tunnel's direction, slope, and cross-sectional dimensions are transformed into a 3D model, forming the basic spatial skeleton of the mine. Simultaneously, surface terrain data is integrated with the underground spatial framework to achieve a unified spatial display between the surface and underground areas.
[0084] 3) For geological and hydrological data, a three-dimensional model of the coal seam is constructed based on the three-dimensional coordinates and attribute information of the coal seam. The thickness variation and geological structure of the coal seam are displayed through different colors and transparency (such as marking faults with special lines).
[0085] For production operation data, the three-dimensional coordinates of the equipment are associated with the equipment model to accurately locate the equipment position in the geospatial framework, and the operating status of the equipment is displayed in real time through color changes or dynamic icons (e.g., normally operating equipment is displayed in green, and faulty equipment is displayed in red).
[0086] For personnel dynamic data, the real-time coordinates of personnel are presented as dynamic points on a 3D map. Combined with information such as the work group to which the personnel belong, personnel details can be viewed by clicking on the points.
[0087] 4) Visualization and Rendering: Utilizing 3D rendering technology, the constructed coal seam model, tunnel framework, equipment model, and personnel locations are rendered to enhance the map's visual appeal and three-dimensionality. For example, textures are filled into the tunnel interiors to simulate a realistic tunnel environment; the coal seam model is rendered in layers to clearly display the distribution of different coal seams. Simultaneously, it supports switching between multiple perspectives (such as top-down, side-view, and roaming views), allowing users to view the mine's 3D spatial information from different angles.
[0088] 5) A rich set of interactive functions allows users to interact with the 3D visualization map. For example, by clicking on equipment locations on the map, users can query detailed operating parameters and historical data of the equipment; by selecting a region, users can count the number of personnel and the distribution of equipment within that region; and users can perform distance measurements and area calculations on the map to assist in production scheduling and safety management decisions. Furthermore, real-time data updates are supported; when data in the data storage and processing module changes (such as personnel movement or equipment status changes), the 3D visualization map can promptly update its displayed content.
[0089] In summary, constructing a 3D visualization map of a coal mine enables the spatial integration of multi-dimensional information. Information such as tunnel layout, equipment location, personnel distribution, and geological structure is overlaid onto a 3D geographic coordinate system, and a dynamic map is generated through a visualization engine. It supports linked queries of business data and spatial location; for example, clicking on a tunnel allows viewing the historical gas concentration curve for that area, providing intuitive spatial decision-making support for dispatching, command, and emergency rescue.
[0090] (5) Integrated Business Management Module
[0091] The integrated business management module integrates business functions such as safety management, production scheduling, ventilation and fire prevention management, geological surveying and water control, electromechanical transportation, mining management, monitoring and control, and operation management, forming a "one-stop" business control platform. It connects to the data storage and processing module to acquire various types of business data; it connects to the GIS map module to utilize its spatial visualization function to assist business management; it connects to the emergency management module to transmit relevant information and push safety event trigger signals when a safety incident occurs; and it connects to the dispatch center display module to transmit key business management information for display and receive instruction feedback from the dispatch center display module. Specifically, it includes the following parts:
[0092] a. Safety Management Unit: Utilizes the safety monitoring data for safety management, monitors the mine's safety status in real time, issues warnings when data exceeds limits, and transmits the warning signal to the emergency management module to formulate corrective measures. For example, it monitors safety parameters such as gas and ventilation in real time, triggers warnings when levels exceed limits, and automatically pushes the corrective action process.
[0093] Furthermore, utilizing safety monitoring data for safety management also includes determining real-time safety risk values based on the monitoring data, and issuing risk warnings using a pre-set intelligent early warning model for coal mine safety risks based on these real-time safety risk values; specifically,
[0094] The real-time security risk value determined based on the aforementioned security monitoring data includes:
[0095] ① Identify key safety monitoring indicators. Select core indicators directly related to mine safety from safety monitoring data, primarily including:
[0096] Gas indicators: methane concentration, carbon monoxide concentration, oxygen content, etc.
[0097] Environmental indicators: wind speed, temperature, humidity, dust concentration, etc.
[0098] Equipment status indicators: operating parameters (such as air pressure, flow rate, current) and on / off status of safety equipment such as fans and water pumps;
[0099] Support and structural parameters: roadway support pressure, roof displacement, etc.
[0100] The selection of these indicators should be based on coal mine safety regulations and the actual risk characteristics of the mine, ensuring coverage of major risk types such as gas explosions, fires, roof falls, and water inrushes.
[0101] ② Establish a risk indicator weighting system. Assign weights to each safety monitoring indicator using methods such as expert evaluation and the analytic hierarchy process (AHP). The weight depends on the indicator's impact on safety risk. For example, methane concentration has the greatest impact on methane explosion risk, so its weight could be set at 0.3; carbon monoxide concentration is closely related to fire risk, so its weight could be set at 0.2, and so on. The weighting system needs to be dynamically adjusted based on historical mine accident data and actual on-site conditions to ensure its scientific validity.
[0102] ③ Set safety thresholds and grading standards for indicators. Set multiple threshold levels for each key indicator, corresponding to different risk levels. Taking methane concentration as an example: Level 1 threshold (low risk): concentration ≤ 0.5%; Level 2 threshold (low to medium risk): 0.5% < concentration ≤ 0.8%; Level 3 threshold (high to medium risk): 0.8% < concentration ≤ 1.0%; Level 4 threshold (high risk): concentration > 1.0%. Other indicators (such as carbon monoxide concentration, wind speed, etc.) should also have similar grading thresholds set according to safety regulations, clearly defining the risk level score for each range (e.g., 1-2 points for low risk, 3-4 points for low to medium risk, 5-6 points for high risk, and 7-10 points for high risk).
[0103] ④ Real-time data standardization processing. Real-time collected safety monitoring data undergoes standardization transformation, mapping the raw data to score ranges corresponding to the risk level. For example, when the methane concentration is 0.6%, corresponding to the secondary threshold, it is converted to 3.5 points; when the wind speed is below 80% of the standard value, corresponding to the tertiary threshold, it is converted to 5 points. Simultaneously, abnormal data (such as jump values caused by sensor malfunctions) is removed or corrected to ensure data validity.
[0104] ⑤ Calculate the real-time security risk value. The weighted summation method is used to calculate the comprehensive security risk value, using the following formula:
[0105] Real-time security risk value = ∑(risk score of individual indicator × weight of corresponding indicator)
[0106] For example, at a certain moment, the scores and weights of each indicator are as follows: Gas concentration: 3.5 points × 0.3 = 1.05 points; Carbon monoxide concentration: 2 points × 0.2 = 0.4 points; Wind speed: 5 points × 0.15 = 0.75 points; Ventilation fan current: 1 point × 0.15 = 0.15 points; Roof displacement: 2 points × 0.2 = 0.4 points; Overall risk value = 1.05 + 0.4 + 0.75 + 0.15 + 0.4 = 2.75 points.
[0107] The overall risk level is determined based on the comprehensive risk value (e.g., 0-3 points is low risk, 3-6 points is medium risk, and 6-10 points is high risk), with 2.75 points corresponding to a low risk status.
[0108] ⑥ Dynamic updates and early warnings of risk values. Safety monitoring data is updated every 1-5 seconds. The system synchronously repeats the above standardized processing and weighted calculation process to refresh the safety risk values in real time. When the risk value exceeds the medium-risk threshold (e.g., 6 points), an early warning mechanism is automatically triggered. The alarm is displayed on the LED screen through the dispatch center's display module, and the early warning information is pushed to the terminals of relevant management personnel, realizing real-time monitoring and rapid response to safety risks.
[0109] The pre-set intelligent early warning model for coal mine safety risks specifically includes:
[0110] A safety risk early warning model for coal mine risk prediction was established using the multiple linear regression method. 160 iterations were selected for this model.
[0111] Define the risk prediction value as Q = (q1, q2, ..., q n The true risk value is Y = (y1, y2, ..., y). n The risk characteristic index factors are X = (x1, x2, ..., x...). n If so, the model is constructed as follows:
[0112] Q = θ × X
[0113]
[0114] After establishing the model, the accuracy of this early warning model is evaluated. The criterion for measuring the model's quality is the deviation between the predicted risk value and the actual risk value obtained through risk model calculation and analysis. The error is then E = (e1, e2, ..., e n ) is represented as:
[0115] E = QY
[0116] Substituting the above formula, we get:
[0117] E = θ × XY
[0118] When the error is negative, the positive and negative values cancel each other out, resulting in a calculated average error of 0. However, in this case, the model cannot accurately predict risk. To prevent this, the model is evaluated by expressing its standard error function J, which is a cost function, as the average of the sum of squared errors, i.e.:
[0119]
[0120] Where 2m represents the sample size of the risk study subjects. Let the sum of squared errors be H, then:
[0121]
[0122] Error e i =q i -y i Substituting into the above, we obtain the sum of squared errors H as:
[0123]
[0124] Substituting E = QY into the formula above, we further obtain the sum of squared errors H as follows:
[0125] H = (θ × XY) T ×(θ×XY)
[0126] Substituting the above formula into... In this process, the error function J is obtained as follows:
[0127]
[0128] When the error function J is minimized, the parameter θ of the risk warning model Q = θ × X is optimal, and the model's prediction of risk warning is most accurate.

[0144] S2. The data transmission module organizes and encapsulates the collected key data.

For example, safety monitoring data is preferentially transmitted via industrial Ethernet to ensure real-time performance; basic operational data can be transmitted in batches on a timed basis via wireless network. During transmission, the data is encrypted and verified to ensure secure and complete transmission to the data storage and processing module.

The linkage function can access data from multiple systems. When a linkage alarm is triggered, the system supports linked map push (including inter-operator station linkage map push and linkage map push with the large screen), and drives subsystem controllers and actuators to perform corresponding linkage actions.
[0152] The system integrates data from existing subsystems within the data center and can build a comprehensive automation platform based on user needs through two implementation paths: First, it can be displayed by embedding the interface into existing subsystems; second, it can be displayed by customizing the configuration interface using the platform's configuration editing software.
