Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of quality traceability and control systems, and in particular to a quality traceability and control system for the entire production process of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces based on digital twins. Background Technology

[0002] To improve the quality and safety of traditional Chinese medicine products and safeguard the health and safety of urban and rural residents, it is necessary to establish a relevant quality traceability system. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To at least partially overcome the problems existing in related technologies, this application provides a method and system for tracing the quality of traditional Chinese medicine, which can realize the quality traceability of the entire traditional Chinese medicine industry chain, improve the transparency and credibility of traditional Chinese medicine products, and create a favorable industry environment.

[0004] The present invention provides a digital twin-based system for full-process quality traceability and control of traditional Chinese medicine decoction piece production, comprising: Quality Traceability Module: This module traces and controls the quality of the entire production process of Chinese herbal medicine slices, obtains traceability results of the processing quality of Chinese herbal medicine slices, and transmits the test results and camera footage to the data analysis module. Data analysis module: Analyzes and traces the results based on the detection results and camera footage, analyzes the safe range based on the interference intensity, and transmits the analysis results to the alarm module; Data sharing module: Shares the analysis results to other TCM decoction piece production process quality traceability and control systems in the city that can be based on digital twins, and receives the analysis results shared by other TCM decoction piece production process quality traceability and control systems that can be based on digital twins. When multiple identical analysis results are received, one set is retained and the other identical analysis results are deleted. Data storage module: Stores test results, analysis results, and other received analysis results that can be shared by the digital twin-based TCM decoction piece production process quality traceability and control system, ensuring that workers can use the stored data to ensure traceability results even when offline; Management module: Verifies the identity of logged-in workers and centrally manages the quality traceability module, data analysis module, data sharing module, data storage module, and alarm module; Alarm module: When the analysis results exceed a set threshold, an audio alarm is issued to remind workers to confirm the traceability results. Simultaneously, an early warning is issued in the big data operation background to provide a reference for hazard prevention and control in quality traceability.

[0005] Preferably, the quality traceability module includes: Wearable mechanism: worn on the worker, supporting the detection and protection mechanisms in the form of earmuffs. The quality traceability module is installed on the left side of the earmuff and is equipped with a communication module, while the alarm module is installed on the right side of the earmuff and is equipped with a battery. Testing Agency: The testing agency traces the quality of the entire production process of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces, and simultaneously records the traceability results via video. The innovative aspect is that the testing instrument integrates a communication module, enabling it to locate and map worker activity trajectories, overlaying equipment and workstation information within the worker's activity range to create and image quality traceability photos of the workshop or workplace. It also integrates an early warning module, capable of issuing alarms for excessively high quality traceability results, with an alarm limit of 85dB. Protective Equipment: This provides protection for the testing personnel, reducing the risk of injury during quality traceability. Essentially, earmuffs serve as both personal protective equipment for workers and are integrated with the testing agency's functions.

[0006] Preferably, the data analysis module includes: Deep learning processing module: It adopts the PyTorch framework and convolutional neural network. It uses a qualified model to judge the tracing result based on the detection result and the camera image, and analyzes the safety range based on the interference intensity. Database: Stores the training data for the model.

[0007] Preferably, the data sharing module includes: Data sending unit: Sends the analysis results to the cloud terminal, stores the analysis results through the cloud terminal, and then transmits the analysis results to other TCM decoction piece production process quality traceability and control systems in the city that can be based on digital twins; Data receiving unit: receives the analysis results sent by the cloud terminal; Data comparison unit: compares the received analysis results with the analysis results in the storage module and deletes duplicate analysis results.

[0008] Preferably, the data storage module includes: Classification Unit: The received data is classified according to the city, and then the received data is classified into the analysis results of the ontology and the analysis results uploaded. Storage unit: Stores the categorized data; Deletion Unit: Deletes data that has exceeded its storage period to ensure that the storage unit has sufficient storage space.

[0009] Preferably, the management module includes: Human-computer interaction unit: assists workers in controlling the system; Login Management Unit: Verifies the identity information of logged-in users; Centralized Management Unit: This unit centrally manages the quality traceability module, data analysis module, data sharing module, data storage module, and alarm module.

[0010] The quality traceability and control system early warning method for a digital twin-based whole-process quality traceability and control system for the production of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces includes the following steps: S1. The worker puts the testing earmuffs on his ears; S3. Verify the identity of logged-in workers through the management module, and centrally manage the quality traceability module, data analysis module, data sharing module, data storage module, and alarm module; S4. When workers move outdoors, the quality traceability intensity around the workers is detected, the scene in front of the workers is photographed, and the detection results and camera footage are transmitted to the data analysis module. S5. The data analysis module analyzes the tracing results based on the detection results and camera footage, analyzes the safe range based on the interference intensity, and transmits the analysis results to the alarm module. S6, Alarm Module: When the analysis results exceed the set threshold, a voice alarm is issued to remind workers to confirm the traceability results; S7. The analysis results are shared to other workplaces in the city that can use the digital twin-based TCM decoction piece production process quality traceability and control system through the data sharing module. The system also receives analysis results shared by other TCM decoction piece production process quality traceability and control systems that can use the digital twin-based TCM decoction piece production process quality traceability and control system. When multiple identical analysis results are received, one set is retained and the other identical analysis results are deleted. S8. The data storage module stores the test results, analysis results, and other analysis results received that can be shared by the digital twin-based TCM decoction piece production process quality traceability and control system, ensuring that workers can use the stored data to ensure traceability results even when offline.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. By combining quality traceability, environmental video recording, and data analysis, the source of quality traceability can be accurately identified, making it easier for workers to stay away from the source of quality traceability or to move within a safe and healthy range. 2. By sharing data, the location and type of quality traceability sources discovered by workers can be shared across different workplaces in the same city, facilitating early warnings for other workers; 3. By storing the test results, analysis results, and other received analysis results that can be shared by the digital twin-based TCM decoction piece production process quality traceability and control system, it is convenient to analyze the location of surrounding quality traceability sources based on the stored data even when the network is offline.
