[0002] Currently, in the oil drilling industry, compared to the main equipment of intelligent drilling rigs, winches, top drives, rotary tables, and the second-level manipulators on the drilling platform have all achieved automated operation. However, in the mud mixer of an oil drilling rig, the electrical equipment in the solids control system still requires manual operation, and its level of automation and intelligence is significantly lower than that of the main equipment of the intelligent drilling rig, which is inconsistent with the overall positioning of intelligent drilling rigs.

[0003] In drilling engineering, drilling processes place high demands on drilling fluid solids treatment and control technologies, primarily because mud density varies with the drilling formation. However, currently, the solids control system electrical equipment in oil drilling rig mud mixers is entirely manually operated. From adding mud materials to mixing, circulation, and then to the desanding and desliming separation of the returned mud, the opening and closing of valves throughout the entire process requires manual intervention. This process is time-consuming and labor-intensive, resulting in extremely low mud processing efficiency. Furthermore, due to the limitations of manual operation, the operating status of electrical equipment cannot be monitored in a timely and effective manner, further reducing the adaptability and efficiency of the solids control system.

[0009] In some preferred embodiments, the target operating mode further includes a dual-machine cyclic mode, and the method further includes: if the target operating mode is a dual-machine cyclic mode, then determining a target equipment group and a dual-machine operating duration, wherein the target equipment group includes at least two of the plurality of target mixers; determining a second order of cyclic operation for each target mixer in the target equipment group; sequentially determining a second mixer according to the second order, wherein the second mixer is a target mixer in the target equipment group; controlling the second mixer to operate, and determining a second operating duration for the second mixer; when the second operating duration of the second mixer reaches the dual-machine operating duration, then updating another target mixer in the target equipment group to a new second mixer.

[0010] In some preferred embodiments, the target working mode further includes a stand-alone working mode, and the method further includes: if the target working mode is a stand-alone working mode, determining the stand-alone working duration, and selecting a third mixer among the target mixers, wherein the third mixer is any one of the plurality of target mixers; controlling the third mixer to start working, and determining a third working duration of the third mixer; determining whether the third working duration is less than the stand-alone working duration; if the third working duration is less than the stand-alone working duration, detecting whether the third mixer has stopped working, and issuing an alarm message when the third mixer stops working; if the third working duration is not less than the stand-alone working duration, controlling the third mixer to stop working, and ending the current control process.

[0031] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the invention. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts relevant to the invention are shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0032] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0033] This invention provides a mixer control method applied to an electronic device connected to a mixer control system, the mixer control system including multiple mixers. To more clearly illustrate the above-described mixer control method, the following describes the method in conjunction with... Figure 1 The steps in the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below.

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, the first embodiment of the present invention provides a mixer control method, the method including steps S10-S30, each step described in detail below:

[0035] Step S10: Obtain target data, which is used to indicate the operating parameters of at least one mixer;

[0036] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the mixer control system refers to a bus system or other possible remote control system, etc., used to control the working process of multiple mixers and to sample the working parameters of each mixer.

[0037] In this embodiment, the mixer control device can specifically be a pre-programmed PLC (Programmable Logic Controller). It is readily understood that the PLC should at least include a CPU module, a digital input / output module, and an analog input / output module. The analog input / output module is used to acquire the aforementioned target data, which is then analyzed and processed by the CPU module. Finally, specific control signals are output through the digital input / output module. The mixer control system and the PLC's CPU module can be connected via bus communication. By sampling the operation process of each mixer through the mixer control system, the operating parameters of each mixer can be determined, and these parameters can be organized into target data conforming to a preset format and sent to the PLC.

[0038] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a system architecture diagram provided for this embodiment. Figure 2 As shown, the mixer control system is connected to the programmable logic controller (PLC) for communication. Various working parameters (such as selected mode, selected equipment, and running time) are transmitted to the PLC. After comprehensive analysis and processing, the PLC further determines information such as the number of control consoles, current mode, working status, current running time, and alarm display, and transmits the corresponding control signals to the mixer control loop to control the mixer.

[0039] More specifically, the process of sampling each mixer to determine its operating parameters can be achieved through a pre-set sampling frequency and sampling points. For example, based on the characteristics of the mixer's operation and the accuracy requirements for parameter detection, a sampling frequency that meets the needs is set, and various sensors are installed in key parts of the mixer (such as a speed sensor on its mixing shaft, a temperature sensor on its casing, a current sensor at its motor, etc.). Then, after the mixer control system is started, sampling is performed based on each sampling point according to the pre-set sampling frequency. After sampling is completed, the determined operating parameters can be organized into target data according to a preset format. For example, key fields of the target data can be set according to the mixer's equipment ID, parameter name, parameter value, sampling time, etc., so as to facilitate the processing of target data based on real-time operating parameters.

[0040] The mixer control system can be set up based on a fieldbus system. Each mixer and its controller can be connected via a fieldbus (such as Profibus, Modbus, CAN, etc.). Sensors for collecting various types of data can be set on each mixer. Data transmission links between different devices can be established through various open communication protocols to sample the operating parameters of multiple mixers.

[0041] A network-based mixer control system can also be implemented based on C / S (Client / Server) or B / S (Browser / Server) modes. For the C / S mode suitable for local area networks, the server uses a high-performance PC, workstation, or minicomputer, and a large database system such as Oracle, Sybase, Informix, or SQL Server. Operators install dedicated software and, by installing sensors on the mixer's control box, transmit sensor signals such as working mode, working time, and working status to the internet for remote control. Simultaneously, the control box's operation signals are transmitted to the internet and received through the office area's local area network, allowing for analysis and observation of the mixer's working status and fault conditions. The internet displays the mixer's operating status and related data in real time, enabling operators to monitor the mixer's operating parameters and easily adjust its operation in real time.

[0042] Step S20: Based on the target data, determine the target working mode and the target mixer. The target working mode corresponds to the working parameters of the mixer. The target mixer is the mixer in the mixer control system that is used to respond to the target working mode.

[0043] In this embodiment, the target working mode refers to the working mode of several mixers that is determined after reading the working parameters represented by the target data and performing corresponding processing. Correspondingly, after the target working mode is determined, the mixers that are under the target working mode are all the target mixers described in this embodiment.

[0044] Specifically, after acquiring the target data, the mixer control device can read the target data according to a preset data format to analyze the various operating parameters of each mixer. Then, based on the threshold range of each operating parameter, it determines the ideal operating mode of each mixer. For example, assuming the target data includes the speed, temperature, and current data of a certain mixer, and through comparison, it is determined that the values ​​of the speed, temperature, and current parameters of the mixer are all within a specific range [a, b], and this specific range [a, b] corresponds to the preset target operating mode {A, B}, then the mixer can be considered to be in the ideal operating mode {A, B}.

[0045] It is understandable that since a mixing system typically connects multiple mixers, there are usually multiple ideal operating modes among these mixers. That is, based on the target data, multiple groups can be identified among the multiple mixers. The mixers in each group are used to respond to the same ideal operating mode, but the ideal operating modes corresponding to the mixers in different groups are different.

[0046] In this embodiment, after analyzing and processing all mixers, multiple ideal working modes and the number of mixers used to respond to each ideal working mode can be determined. According to a certain preset rule, one of the multiple ideal working modes can be selected as the target working mode mentioned above.

[0047] In some embodiments, after determining multiple ideal operating modes, the target operating mode can be determined according to the number of mixers that respond to each ideal operating mode. For example, assuming that a sequence of ideal modes {P1, P2, P3...} has been determined, each ideal mode P1, P2, P3... corresponds to a mixer set M1, M2, M3..., and the number of mixers Q1, Q2, Q3... in each mixer sequence set is determined in turn. By comparison, the mixer set Qmax with the largest number can be obtained. Then, the ideal mode Pmax corresponding to Qmax is the target operating mode mentioned above, and each mixer in Qmax is the target mixer mentioned above.

[0048] In other embodiments, after determining multiple ideal operating modes, a target operating mode can be determined based on preset equipment production requirements. For example, assuming a sequence of ideal modes {P1, P2, P3...} has been determined, each ideal mode P1, P2, P3... corresponds to a set of mixers M1, M2, M3... respectively. If the preset equipment production requirement is an efficiency factor, then the ideal mode Ps with the highest efficiency is determined among the multiple ideal operating modes. In this case, Ps is the target operating mode, and each mixer in the corresponding set of mixers Ms is the target mixer. If the preset equipment production requirement is an energy-saving factor, then the ideal mode Pe with the lowest power consumption is determined among the multiple ideal operating modes. In this case, Pe is the target operating mode, and each mixer in the corresponding set of mixers Me is the target mixer.

[0049] Step S30: According to the target working mode, control the target mixer to enter the target working mode in sequence to work.

[0050] Specifically, the target operating modes mentioned above include multi-machine cyclic mode, dual-machine cyclic mode, and single-machine operating mode. For clarity, please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figure 3 , Figure 3 This embodiment provides a schematic diagram of a control flow in a practical application scenario, such as... Figure 3 As shown, after the intelligent control of the mixer is started, the mixer control system sends data to the PLC. The PLC analyzes and processes the data to determine a working mode, including single-machine mode (i.e., the single-machine working mode mentioned above), dual-machine cycle mode, and multi-machine cycle mode. Figure 3 Assuming the control system is connected to a total of 3 mixers, in single-machine mode, any one of the 3 mixers is selected, while in dual-machine cycle mode, any two of them are selected. Correspondingly, in multi-machine cycle mode, the 3 mixers are selected to work in sequence.

[0051] Furthermore, the target mixers are sequentially controlled to enter the target working mode according to the target working mode, specifically including: determining the type of the target working mode; if the target working mode is a multi-machine cycle mode, determining the cycle working time of each target mixer when responding to the multi-machine cycle mode; and controlling each target mixer to work in a cycle according to the cycle working time.

[0052] In this embodiment, the multi-machine cycle mode refers to multiple target mixers alternating and cycling, intermittently entering the target working mode to work. The aforementioned cycle working time is used to characterize the duration for which each target mixer switches to the target mode to work.

[0053] Furthermore, based on the single-machine working time, the system controls the cyclic operation of each target mixer, including: determining the first sequence of the cyclic operation of each target mixer; selecting a first mixer sequentially from the target mixers according to the first sequence, wherein the first sequence indicates the working order of each target mixer in response to the multi-machine cyclic mode; controlling the first mixer to work and recording the first duration of the first mixer's operation; when the first duration reaches the cyclic working time, determining whether the first mixer is the last target mixer in the first sequence; if the first mixer is not the last mixer in the first sequence, reselecting the next mixer as the first mixer from the target mixers according to the first sequence; and ending the current control process if the first mixer is the last mixer in the first sequence.

[0054] The first order is used to characterize the cyclical working order of each target mixer, ensuring that each target mixer operates sequentially without conflict. Specifically, the first order can be set using various sorting algorithms. For example, the device IDs of each target mixer can be randomly sorted to obtain the first order, or they can be sorted according to the size of the device IDs. This embodiment does not limit the specific algorithm used.

[0055] Furthermore, the above method also includes: if the target working mode is a dual-machine cycle mode, then determining a target equipment group and a dual-machine working duration, wherein the target equipment group includes at least two of the multiple target mixers; determining a second sequence of cyclic operation for each target mixer in the target equipment group; sequentially determining a second mixer according to the second sequence, wherein the second mixer is one of the target mixers in the target equipment group; controlling the second mixer to work and determining a second working duration for the second mixer; when the second working duration of the second mixer reaches the dual-machine working duration, then updating another target mixer in the target equipment group to a new second mixer.

[0056] In this embodiment, the target equipment group includes at least two mixers, which work alternately in a set second sequence, and the maximum working time does not exceed the above-mentioned dual-machine working time.

[0057] Furthermore, in the above embodiments, the method further includes: if the target working mode is a single-machine working mode, determining the single-machine working duration, and selecting a third mixer among the target mixers, wherein the third mixer is any one of the plurality of target mixers; controlling the third mixer to start working, and determining a third working duration of the third mixer; determining whether the third duration is less than the single-machine working duration; when the third duration is less than the single-machine working duration, detecting whether the third mixer has stopped working, and issuing an alarm message when the third mixer stops working; when the third duration is not less than the single-machine working duration, controlling the third mixer to stop working, and ending the current control process.

[0058] Regarding parameters such as the third sequence and the third duration, please refer to the above explanation in this embodiment, which will not be repeated here.

[0059] Furthermore, in the above embodiments, determining the target operating mode and the target mixer based on the target data includes: reading the target data; determining the target operating mode based on the operating parameters of each mixer; selecting a mixer that conforms to the target operating mode from among the multiple mixers according to the target operating mode; determining the number of mixers that conform to the target operating mode and a target threshold corresponding to the target operating mode, wherein the target threshold is used to indicate the number of mixers required to satisfy the target operating mode; if the number of mixers that conform to the target operating mode is the same as the target threshold, then determining the reference mixer as the target mixer; if the number of mixers that conform to the target operating mode is different from the target threshold, then terminating the current control process and issuing an alarm message.

[0060] It is easy to understand that when selecting a target mixer, it is necessary to check again whether the target mixer can successfully respond to the target working mode. In this embodiment, each target working mode corresponds to a specific number of mixers. If the number of target mixers used to respond to the target working mode is different from its corresponding target threshold, then if the mixer is controlled to work according to the target working mode, it may cause system abnormalities or even damage to the mixer.

[0061] Although the steps in the above embodiments are described in the above order, those skilled in the art will understand that in order to achieve the effect of this embodiment, different steps do not need to be executed in such an order. They can be executed simultaneously (in parallel) or in a reverse order. These simple variations are all within the protection scope of this invention.

[0062] A second embodiment of the present invention provides a mixer control device. This mixer control device includes a communication terminal and an output terminal. The communication terminal is connected to the signal terminal of the mixer control system to obtain the operating parameters of each mixer. A relay module is provided between the output terminal and the target mixer. The electronic device transmits the control signal to the relay module through the output terminal. The relay module controls the working process of the target mixer according to the control signal, so that the target mixer enters the target working mode for operation.

[0063] The mixer control device can be a software module, which includes several instructions stored in a memory. The processor can access the memory, call the instructions, and execute them to complete the mixer control method described in the above embodiments. In some embodiments, the mixer control device can also be built from hardware devices.
