Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of electromechanical equipment testing and maintenance technology, and in particular to a method for monitoring and life prediction of electric motors used in electric hoists based on multi-source data. Background Technology

[0002] As the core power component of electric hoists, the long-term reliability of the electric motor is a key indicator of the overall quality of the hoist. Currently, the main method used in the industry to verify the lifespan and reliability of electric hoist motors is to conduct cyclic operation tests lasting hundreds to thousands of hours on a dedicated test bench, based on the duty cycles specified in national standards. However, existing testing and evaluation methods have the following limitations:

[0003] First, the testing process suffers from low levels of automation and intelligence. Traditional testing relies heavily on manual supervision, requiring operators to manually control equipment startup and shutdown and record key data. This approach is labor-intensive and makes it difficult to guarantee the accuracy and consistency of continuous 24-hour testing.

[0004] Secondly, existing technologies for monitoring the testing process are mostly limited to simple data collection and threshold alarms for a few parameters such as temperature and current. This single-point, threshold-based monitoring cannot comprehensively and deeply reflect the overall state of the equipment under complex cyclic stress. The assessment of performance degradation often relies on destructive testing or performance retesting after the test, resulting in severely delayed results and failing to provide forward-looking insights during the testing process.

[0005] Furthermore, the industry lacks effective means to quantitatively and model-based predict the remaining service life of equipment during testing. It is unable to integrate multi-source and heterogeneous monitoring data into a unified quantitative indicator of equipment health loss, and cannot dynamically assess the residual value of equipment performance based on this. As a result, product reliability design optimization lacks data support, and asset management and maintenance decisions lack a scientific basis. Summary of the Invention

[0038] S5: Based on the processed feature data, calculate the current health status index and predicted remaining service life of the electric hoist;

[0039] Step S5 further includes the following sub-steps:

[0040] S51. Calculate the processed feature data to construct a multidimensional damage factor set;

[0041] Regarding motor winding temperature Using formula The temperature rise damage factor was calculated. ;

[0042] in The reference temperature for the motor windings is taken as the rated operating ambient temperature of the motor.

[0043] This represents the maximum permissible operating temperature of the motor winding insulation material, and is an industry standard value.

[0044] Through formula Electrical damage factor was calculated ;

[0047] in, The rated allowable value for vibration is obtained from the factory test data of the electric hoist or industry standards, and serves as the benchmark value for vibration damage.

[0048] The noise contribution weighting coefficient is obtained by fitting historical test data and is used to balance the relative contributions of vibration and noise to mechanical damage.

[0049] The A-weighted sound pressure level is the overall operating noise measured at present, which comprehensively reflects the overall noise status of the mechanical components of the electric hoist motor.

[0050] It is obtained by referencing the A-weighted sound pressure level through calibration tests conducted on a brand-new, mechanically undamaged electric hoist under standard no-load conditions.

[0055] S53. Regarding the instantaneous comprehensive damage rate By performing integration along the experimental time axis, the cumulative comprehensive damage level from the start of the experiment to the current moment is obtained. ;

[0056] Through formula The cumulative comprehensive damage degree was calculated. The cumulative comprehensive damage The value range is [0,1], which is used to quantify the cumulative damage degree of the electric motor used in electric hoists. The closer the value is to 1, the more serious the cumulative damage degree of the electric motor used in electric hoists.

[0057] in The preset failure damage threshold represents the critical total damage amount from a brand-new state to functional failure. This threshold is determined by the cumulative comprehensive damage level. achieve The motor's lifespan is determined to have ended at this time;

[0058] This represents the integral of the instantaneous comprehensive damage rate over time from the start of the experiment (time 0) to the current time t, and represents the accumulated original damage amount.

[0059] S54. Calculate the current health status index of the electric hoist motor based on the cumulative comprehensive damage degree. With predicted remaining useful life ;

[0060] The health status index The calculation formula is: = 1- The value ranges from [0,1], and the closer the value is to 1, the better the health status of the electric motor used in the electric hoist.

[0061] The predicted remaining useful life The calculation formula is: ,in The design target total lifespan of the electric motor used in electric hoists is determined by the product design indicators; based on the linear correlation between the health status index and the design lifespan, the remaining service life can be accurately predicted.

[0062] This method aims to infer the health status and remaining service life of electric motors used in electric hoists, thereby enabling accurate assessment of the motor's condition and scientific prediction of its lifespan.

[0063] Step S5 constructs a multi-dimensional damage factor set encompassing temperature rise, electrical, and mechanical factors to comprehensively cover the damage types of the core system of the electric motor used in electric hoists, avoiding the one-sidedness of single-dimensional assessment; and based on the comprehensive damage rate and cumulative damage degree calculation of the damage factors, it achieves quantitative characterization of health status and accurate prediction of remaining life.

[0064] S6: Select key performance parameters from the multivariate time-series data and processing feature data, and dynamically evaluate the residual performance value of the electric motor for the electric hoist based on the calculated value and design rated value of the key performance parameters, combined with the predicted remaining service life.

[0065] Based on the multivariate time-series data collected in step S2 and the processing feature data obtained in step S4, key performance output parameters that directly characterize the core working capability of the electric hoist motor are selected. Through weighted fusion calculation, the performance residual value of the electric hoist motor at the current moment is dynamically evaluated and output, quantifying the performance retention degree of the electric hoist motor in the current test stage.

[0066] Furthermore, the performance residual value is expressed as a performance residual value rate. Perform quantitative characterization, A higher value indicates a better retention of the electric motor's performance in the electric hoist. The calculation formula is as follows:

[0067] ;

[0069] The cumulative effective runtime of the test refers to the effective duration of the cycle life test actually performed by the electric hoist motor from the start of the test to the current moment; k is the number of key performance parameters.

[0070] Furthermore, the key performance parameters include at least the effective value of vibration. Current imbalance and motor winding temperature It covers three aspects: electrical, mechanical, and temperature rise, to ensure a comprehensive assessment.

[0071] The calculated value of the j-th key performance parameter is the data collected in step S2 and calculated in step S4.

[0074] The performance residual value is used to quantify the degree to which the performance of the electric motor used in the electric hoist is retained during the test, and to verify whether it still meets the design requirements.

[0075] The three core key performance parameters of electrical, mechanical and temperature rise are selected and combined with the health status index and remaining service life for weighted integration to achieve dynamic quantitative assessment of performance residual value; the assessment logic covers current operating capacity, cumulative damage status and life reserve potential, and comprehensively reflects the performance retention degree of electric motors used in electric hoists.

[0076] S7: Based on the comparison results of the multivariate time-series data, health status index, performance residual value, and predicted remaining service life with their respective preset safety thresholds, generate status information or multi-level early warning information and push it to the remote terminal.

[0077] The multi-level early warning information includes the following three levels of early warning:

[0078] Level 1 warning: When the instantaneous value of any parameter in the multi-dimensional time-series data exceeds the corresponding preset real-time safety threshold, a real-time fault alarm is triggered; Level 1 warning requires immediate attention and may require remote emergency shutdown;

[0079] Level 2 warning: When the rate of decline of the health status index or performance residual value exceeds the corresponding preset rate of change threshold within a continuous preset time period, a performance degradation warning is triggered; the level 2 warning indicates potential problems and suggests planned maintenance;

[0080] Level 3 warning: When the predicted remaining service life is lower than the preset safe service life threshold, a lifespan pre-termination warning is triggered; Level 3 warning is used for long-term asset management and replacement planning.

[0081] If the comparison results do not meet the triggering conditions for any level of warning, status information is generated, including device identification information, multi-source time-series data collected in real time by multiple sensors, and calculated health status index, predicted remaining service life, and performance residual value.

[0082] Finally, the status information or multi-level early warning information is pushed to the designated remote terminal through remote communication, so as to realize real-time notification of equipment status and timely early warning of risks, which facilitates remote intervention by operation and maintenance personnel.

[0083] This step establishes a three-tiered differentiated early warning mechanism to match different risk scenarios such as real-time failures, performance degradation, and premature end of life, enabling graded response and precise control of risks; status information comprehensively presents the equipment's operating status and evaluation results, and the remote push design ensures that maintenance personnel can obtain information in a timely manner, supports remote intervention, and improves test safety and maintenance efficiency.

[0084] The beneficial effects of the electric hoist remote monitoring and life prediction method based on multi-source data fusion of the present invention are as follows: (1) According to the national standard working system, the precise test instruction sequence is automatically generated and remotely sent to the test bench controller to drive the equipment to automatically perform cyclic tests, replacing manual duty and ensuring that the test process is strict, continuous and reproducible; (2) The system collects and processes multi-dimensional data such as electrical, mechanical and thermal data in a systematic way, and through the original comprehensive damage degree model, these heterogeneous parameters are nonlinearly fused to calculate the health status index and predicted remaining service life that can comprehensively reflect the instantaneous stress and cumulative damage of the equipment; so that the evaluation no longer depends on the single parameter exceeding the limit, but is based on the overall health degradation trend of the equipment to achieve accurate prediction of the equipment health status; (3) By integrating key performance parameters, health status index and predicted remaining service life, a multi-dimensional weighted evaluation logic is formed to ensure that the residual value evaluation result is highly consistent with the actual performance retention degree, and to provide a quantitative basis for the test conclusion; (4) Define multi-level early warning rules from real-time faults, performance degradation to life pre-termination, and push the information to the remote terminal for processing, realizing the refined hierarchical management of risks.
