Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of intelligent control equipment for fluid transport, and in particular to a self-diagnostic intelligent butterfly valve and control method based on the Internet of Things. Background Technology
[0002] Butterfly valves, as fluid control valves with simple structure, convenient operation, and excellent flow regulation performance, are widely used in various industrial fluid transportation systems. Their operational stability directly affects the safe and efficient operation of the entire fluid system. However, existing butterfly valves, whether traditional manual / electric or a few so-called "intelligent butterfly valves," all have many technical defects, making it difficult to meet the development needs of industrial intelligence and unattended operation. Specifically: (1) Delayed fault detection and prominent safety hazards: Traditional butterfly valves only have basic switching or flow regulation functions, without any status perception or fault diagnosis capabilities. They rely entirely on manual inspection to detect faults such as leakage, jamming, and overload. The fault detection time is long, which can easily lead to safety accidents such as fluid leakage, pipeline overpressure, and equipment damage. The hidden dangers are even more prominent in the transportation of dangerous media such as chemicals and gas.
[0003] (2) Low diagnostic accuracy and high false alarm rate: A few existing intelligent butterfly valves can only collect a single valve position opening or pipeline pressure signal. The diagnostic logic adopts a simple threshold judgment method, which cannot fully reflect the operating status of the butterfly valve. False alarms and missed alarms are likely to occur, which not only increases the workload of operation and maintenance personnel, but may also lead to unnecessary shutdowns due to false alarms, or miss the best time to deal with faults due to missed alarms.
[0004] (3) Relying on cloud computing, with high response latency and failure when the network is disconnected: The fault diagnosis of existing intelligent butterfly valves mostly relies on cloud servers for data processing and analysis. The data transmission and diagnostic response latency is large, making it impossible to handle faults in real time. At the same time, once the network is interrupted, the system will completely lose its diagnostic and control capabilities, and the butterfly valve will be out of control, which may easily lead to safety risks.
[0005] To address the shortcomings of the existing technologies, there is an urgent need for an intelligent butterfly valve and control method that features full-dimensional self-diagnosis, local real-time handling, fault self-repair, full-scenario adaptation, and strong compatibility. This would solve the pain points of the existing technologies, improve the intelligence level, operational safety and reliability of fluid control systems, and reduce maintenance costs. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a self-diagnostic intelligent butterfly valve and control method based on the Internet of Things (IoT), which realizes full-dimensional perception of the butterfly valve's operating status, local low-latency fault diagnosis, and IoT remote control, thereby solving practical engineering pain points in the field of industrial fluid control, improving the safe operation level of fluid systems, and reducing operation and maintenance costs.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a self-diagnostic intelligent butterfly valve based on the Internet of Things, including a butterfly valve body, an electric actuator drive module, a multi-dimensional sensor array, an edge computing self-diagnostic main control unit, an Internet of Things communication module, a redundant power supply module, a fault emergency control module, and a local storage and indication module. The multi-dimensional sensor array is signal-connected to the edge computing self-diagnostic main control unit, used to collect full-dimensional status data of the butterfly valve operation and transmit it to the edge computing self-diagnostic main control unit. The edge computing self-diagnostic main control unit is electrically connected to the electric actuator drive module, the NB-IoT+LoRa dual-mode IoT communication module, the fault emergency control module, and the local storage and indication module, respectively, used to receive sensor data, perform local AI fault diagnosis, generate control commands based on the diagnostic results and send them to the electric actuator drive module and the fault emergency control module. The tri-mode redundant power supply module adopts a multi-power redundancy design to provide stable and redundant power supply for the entire intelligent butterfly valve system, ensuring uninterrupted system operation. It is used to receive the fault classification results output by the edge computing self-diagnostic main control unit and execute corresponding emergency and self-repair actions. The edge computing self-diagnostic main control unit has built-in fault classification judgment rules, which are set based on the feature values of the status data collected by the multi-dimensional sensor array.

[0010] Preferably, the multi-dimensional sensor array includes an absolute magnetically coded valve position opening sensor, a diffused silicon inlet pressure sensor, a diffused silicon outlet pressure sensor, a piezoelectric vibration sensor, an NTC / Pt100 medium temperature sensor, a cavity-type gas / liquid level micro-leakage sensor, and a drive torque sensor; wherein, the leakage sensor is arranged in the liquid accumulation cavity below the valve shaft seal, and by monitoring the change in the medium liquid level and the gas concentration in the liquid accumulation cavity, both internal and external leakage can be detected simultaneously. Leakage determination uses a threshold comparison formula: ; when > The leak was determined to be present at that time. For real-time monitoring of concentration / liquid level; Reference concentration / liquid level; The threshold for determining leakage; The pressure sensor has a range of 0~1.6MPa, and the temperature sensor has a measurement range of -40℃~125℃. The parameters of the pressure and temperature sensors are adapted to the parameter detection requirements of industrial pipelines under normal operating conditions. The preprocessing of the acquired data adopts a first-order low-pass filter formula: ; in, This is the filtered data; This is the currently collected data; This is the data from the previous filtering; These are the filter coefficients, with values ranging from 0.1 to 0.3.
[0011] Preferably, the edge computing self-diagnostic main control unit adopts an industrial-grade MCU + edge AI inference chip, with a built-in lightweight CNN fault diagnosis model that can run locally offline. The fault diagnosis response time is <50ms, and it can identify 7 typical faults, including but not limited to valve shaft jamming, valve shaft stalling, seal wear, internal leakage, external leakage, drive overload, and sensor abnormality. The diagnostic logic adopts a triple judgment method of AI model judgment + multi-threshold cross-validation + trend analysis, which can effectively improve the accuracy of fault diagnosis and reduce misjudgment and missed judgment.
[0012] Preferably, the IoT communication module adopts an NB-IoT+LoRa dual-mode structure. The NB-IoT module is used for remote data upload and remote control, realizing wide-coverage remote communication; the LoRa module is used for self-organizing local area networks in the plant / pipeline network and multi-valve linkage, realizing short-range low-power communication. The two work together to improve communication stability.

[0013] Preferably, the redundant power supply module includes a 220V AC main power supply, a lithium battery backup power supply with a battery life of ≥72h, and a solar auxiliary power supply module, which together constitute a three-mode redundant power supply. The redundant power supply module is connected to each power consumption module. The three-mode redundant power supply module has a built-in ultra-low power consumption sleep-wake mechanism. Under normal conditions, the system is in sleep mode and wakes up to collect data at a cycle of 5s to 30s. Under abnormal conditions, it immediately wakes up and performs reporting actions to ensure uninterrupted power supply to the system.
[0014] Preferably, the fault emergency control module has a three-level emergency strategy: Level I minor faults (which do not affect the normal operation of the valve and only have minor abnormalities, such as minor leakage or opening deviation) execute local self-calibration, automatic closing compensation, and log recording actions; Level II general faults (which affect some functions of the valve, such as abnormal driving torque or sensor data deviation) execute forward and reverse rotation escape, opening limit, and remote reporting actions; Level III serious faults (which endanger system safety or cause the valve to be unable to operate, such as valve shaft jamming or serious leakage) execute emergency shutdown / micro-opening pressure relief, audible and visual alarm (red light flashing, alarm frequency of 1 time / second), and control permission locking actions.
[0015] This invention also provides a self-diagnostic intelligent butterfly valve control method based on the Internet of Things, comprising the following steps: Step S1: Power on the system and initialize it, complete the self-test of each module, and ensure normal operation; Step S2: The multi-dimensional sensor array collects status data according to a set period; Step S3: The main control unit performs filtering and noise reduction preprocessing on the collected data and extracts fault feature values; Step S4: The edge computing self-diagnosis main control unit performs local real-time fault diagnosis. If no fault is detected, it returns to step S2 to continue collecting data. If a fault is detected, it proceeds to step S5. Step S5: Based on the preset fault classification judgment rules, perform fault classification judgment according to the fault characteristic values. Step S6: The fault emergency control module executes the corresponding emergency and self-repair strategies based on the fault classification results; Step S7: Upload the fault information, emergency operation record and current operating data to the remote platform and simultaneously store them in the local storage module; Step S8, periodic self-maintenance, including sensor calibration, actuator lubrication, local cache clearing, and module status self-check, to ensure long-term stable operation of the system.
[0016] Preferably, the data acquisition cycle in step S2 can be adaptively adjusted. In normal state (no fault, no warning), it is 5s~30s; in warning state (sensor data is close to the preset threshold and the main control unit issues a warning signal), it is 1s; and in fault state, it is 100ms high-frequency sampling. The self-repair actions in step S6 include: closed-loop correction of opening deviation for valve shaft jamming fault, forward and reverse pulse freeing for valve shaft jamming fault, seal wear compensation for valve wear fault, overpressure relief for overpressure fault, and power outage switching to backup power supply for mains power interruption fault.
[0017] Therefore, the present invention employs the above-mentioned self-diagnostic intelligent butterfly valve and control method based on the Internet of Things, and the technical effects are as follows: (1) An integrated intelligent butterfly valve technology solution of multi-dimensional sensor array + edge computing self-diagnosis + three-level fault emergency + dual-mode communication + three-mode power supply is proposed, which is different from the existing butterfly valve products with single sensing, single communication, no local diagnosis and no self-repair; the detection method of cavity micro-leakage sensor and multi-sensor fusion is pioneered to achieve accurate detection of internal and external leakage at the same time; the mode of combining edge AI local diagnosis and cloud collaborative management is adopted to break through the technical limitations of existing cloud diagnosis and has significant novelty.
[0018] (2) Overcoming the technical biases that are common in the industry, such as "reliance on cloud computing, single diagnosis, loss of control due to network and power outages, and lack of proactive emergency protection", it brings significant technological progress; the edge computing self-diagnosis main control unit realizes local low-latency diagnosis (response time < 50ms), solving the problem of high latency in existing cloud diagnosis; the dual-mode communication module adapts to multiple scenarios of remote and local area networks, solving the problem of limited coverage of a single communication method; the triple-mode redundant power supply module realizes dual power supply of mains power and lithium battery + low-power sleep, solving the problems of loss of control due to power outages and poor adaptability; the three-level fault emergency self-repair mechanism realizes proactive closed-loop handling of faults, reduces manual intervention, and can reduce fault handling time by more than 80% and reduce operation and maintenance costs by more than 30% compared with existing technologies; multi-sensor fusion + triple diagnostic logic greatly reduces false alarm rate and false alarm rate, and improves diagnostic accuracy to more than 99%.
[0019] (3) The butterfly valve body adopts the national standard flange / clip structure, which is compatible with the installation size of traditional butterfly valves. It can directly replace the existing traditional butterfly valves without modifying the pipeline. It can be used immediately after installation, with low modification cost and short construction period. The industrial-grade protection design (IP67) is suitable for harsh industrial environments such as outdoor, humid and dusty environments. It can be widely used in various industrial fluid control scenarios such as water, chemical, gas, HVAC, petroleum and mining. It has local independent operation capability. It can still realize fault diagnosis and emergency handling when the network is disconnected or the power is cut off, ensuring the safe and stable operation of the system. Local storage and status indication functions facilitate on-site operation and maintenance and fault diagnosis. Periodic self-maintenance and self-repair functions extend the service life of the valve and reduce operation and maintenance costs. It truly solves the actual engineering pain points of unattended operation, fault delay and difficult operation and maintenance in the field of industrial fluid control. It can be mass-produced industrially and has strong practicality and promotion value.
