Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of underground automation control technology in coal mines, and relates to an inspection terminal for an underground automatic drilling rig centralized control operation line in coal mines. Background Technology
[0002] The intelligent drilling rig centralized control operation line in coal mines is one of the core equipment for achieving unmanned or minimally manned operations in coal mine production. With the rapid development of 5G communication, big data, and IoT technologies, traditional manual inspection and fixed control room monitoring modes are no longer sufficient to meet the needs of efficient, safe, and real-time management of underground drilling robots. Existing coal mine drilling rig monitoring systems are mainly divided into two categories: one is a B / S architecture WEB-based monitoring system based on a fixed monitoring screen (such as the intelligent drilling site centralized control operation line already built in Guqiao No. 2 Mine, Pan No. 3 Mine, and Pan No. 2 Mine), which allows remote viewing of the overall operation status of the operation line by logging into the server via IP address, including personnel positioning, safety monitoring data, drilling rig operating time, drilling footage statistics, and video monitoring; the other is PC client software installed in the ground control room, mainly used for background parameter configuration and data query.
[0003] While the aforementioned existing technologies have achieved centralized monitoring to some extent, they still have the following significant drawbacks: 1. Inspection personnel cannot carry portable mobile terminals to go deep into the downhole operation site for real-time inspection, and cannot simultaneously obtain drilling rig operating parameters, delivery device status and on-site operation views of multiple drilling sites during the movement process; 2. The lack of real-time voice communication between terminals prevents efficient communication between inspection personnel and the ground command center or other inspection terminals, resulting in low efficiency in fault response and collaborative operations. 3. When multiple users operate concurrently, the device start / stop status cannot be synchronized in real time, which can easily lead to control conflicts, and there is a delay and inconsistency in the issuance of emergency stop commands; 4. The login and device binding process for mobile terminals is complex, and the configuration of IP addresses and binding of device identifiers in the harsh downhole environment is inconvenient, making it difficult to achieve automatic login and quick switching of drilling site monitoring. 5. The existing system is not specifically optimized for mobile inspection terminals such as Android tablets, and cannot meet the requirements for low-latency data synchronization, distributed concurrent control, and real-time auditing of operation logs under the 64-bit Android operating system.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need in the existing technology for a portable mobile terminal specifically designed for inspection of the centralized control operation line of automatic drilling rigs in coal mines. This terminal should be able to integrate functions such as drilling site IP management, real-time data synchronization, voice communication, drilling site switching monitoring, and multi-user distributed emergency stop control, enabling inspection personnel to carry out efficient mobile and intelligent inspection operations on-site in the mine. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an inspection terminal for an automatic drilling rig centralized control operation line in coal mines.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: A coal mine underground automatic drilling rig centralized control operation line inspection terminal includes an Android tablet terminal and a smart drilling rig mobile monitoring APP software installed on the Android tablet terminal; The APP software communicates with the downhole drilling rig and auxiliary devices through a central server. The central server synchronizes the drilling rig operation data and the delivery device data at regular intervals according to the IP address of the drilling rig and the IP address of the delivery device in each drilling site, and sends control commands to the drilling rig and auxiliary devices. The APP software includes: The login and binding module is used to record the device identifier and complete the binding upon the first login, enabling automatic login thereafter. The voice call module integrates an IM service plugin to enable real-time voice calls between terminals. The data monitoring module presents multiple independent drilling site options, allowing users to select only one for real-time monitoring. The emergency stop control module is used to remotely control the drilling rig and auxiliary equipment.
[0007] Furthermore, the voice call module includes a dynamic user online status display submodule and a one-click dialing submodule; The dynamic user online status display submodule synchronizes and updates the user online status in real time through the central server. When the user opens the dialer interface, the online user list pops up and marks the "calling" status next to the name of the user who is in a call. The one-click dialing submodule allows users to directly click on an item in the online user list to trigger a dialing operation without having to manually enter the number. The operation process of the voice call module is as follows: After the user opens the APP and enters the dialing function, the system queries and displays the list of online users, checks the user status and marks it as "in a call", the user selects the target number and clicks to dial, the system initiates a call request, and establishes a call connection after the call is successful. If the call fails, it returns to the list of online users.
[0008] Furthermore, the specific workflow of the data monitoring module is as follows: Users enter the drilling site selection interface and select the target drilling site through touch operation; The system initiates a synchronous data capture process based on the IP address of the drilling rig corresponding to the selected drilling site to obtain the real-time status information and key operating parameters of the drilling rig. At the same time, remote data acquisition is carried out based on the IP address of the delivery device corresponding to the selected drilling site to obtain the latest status report and performance indicators of the delivery device. After all data is integrated and processed by the central server's backend algorithm, the on-site operation status view is displayed in real time on the APP's front-end interface. Only one drilling site can be selected at a time, and each click triggers the update and display of the corresponding drilling site data.
[0009] Furthermore, the emergency stop control module has three sets of linkage control modules at the bottom of the APP interface, corresponding to "Drill Rig 1 + Auxiliary 1", "Drill Rig 2 + Auxiliary 2", and "Drill Rig 3 + Auxiliary 3" respectively. Each set of equipment has two basic operation states: "start" and "stop". The emergency stop control module adopts a distributed data synchronization control technology algorithm. When any user clicks the start or stop button, the system captures the operation command in real time. After the target drilling rig and auxiliary equipment switch states, the new state information is uploaded to the central server. The central server immediately broadcasts it to the APP interface of all online users, realizing real-time consistency refresh of equipment status under multi-user concurrent operation.
[0010] Furthermore, the APP software also includes a terminal operation log recording function, which is used to record the dialing operation, drilling site query operation, drilling site emergency stop control operation and other operations performed by the user on the APP, and store the operation time, operator, operation object and operation result and other information in the database through the central server for the background administrator to audit and troubleshoot.
[0011] Furthermore, the communication between the central server and the drilling rig and auxiliary devices uses the HTTP / HTTPS protocol for data synchronization and command issuance. The APP software and the central server use WebSocket to achieve real-time data transmission to meet the low latency requirements of high concurrency and multi-user collaborative inspection scenarios in underground coal mines. The Android tablet terminal is equipped with a 64-bit Android operating system, which is suitable for mobile inspection operations in underground coal mines.
[0012] Furthermore, the login and binding module provides a username input box, an IP address input box, and a password input box on the login interface. Upon first login, the device identifier is bound to the username, and subsequent logins automatically use the bound device identifier to achieve login without input.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: (1) It realizes the mobile intelligent inspection of the underground drilling rig centralized control operation line. The inspection personnel can carry Android tablet terminals to go deep into the operation site, select and view the drilling rig operation status, key parameters and delivery device data of any drilling site in real time, which significantly improves the flexibility and timeliness of the inspection and solves the problem that traditional fixed monitoring cannot be viewed on-site.
[0014] (2) It integrates dynamic online status display and one-click dialing instant voice call function, supports real-time "calling" status indication, realizes efficient and clear communication between inspection personnel and ground command center or other terminals, and greatly shortens fault response and collaborative operation time.
[0015] (3) The distributed data synchronization control technology is adopted. When any user triggers the emergency stop control, the system captures the instruction in real time and broadcasts it to all online terminals through the central server, so as to realize the instantaneous and consistent refresh of the status of the three sets of linkage equipment (drilling rig + auxiliary device), effectively avoid the conflict of multi-user concurrent control, and improve the safety and reliability of emergency operation.
[0016] (4) By uniformly configuring the drilling rig IP and the delivery device IP in the background, and combining the automatic login mechanism after the first binding, the operation process in the complex environment of the well is simplified, and the ease of use and user experience of the system are improved.
[0017] (5) It supports WebSocket real-time data transmission and backend algorithm integration. The APP interface can refresh the on-site operation status view in real time, and at the same time record the terminal operation log completely, providing a reliable basis for auditing and troubleshooting, and enhancing the maintainability and security of the system.
[0018] (6) The overall solution responds quickly (within 2 seconds after operation), has strong high-concurrency processing capability, and has an availability of 99.9%, which greatly reduces the intensity of manual inspection and provides strong technical support for the development of intelligent drilling rig centralized control operation line in coal mines towards less manpower and unmanned operation. It has significant economic and safety benefits. Attached Figure Description

[0023] Example 1 A coal mine underground automatic drilling rig centralized control operation line inspection terminal includes an Android tablet terminal and an intelligent drilling rig mobile monitoring APP software (hereinafter referred to as "APP software") installed on the Android tablet terminal.
[0024] The inspection terminal communicates with the three automated drilling rig control lines (Drilling Site 1, Drilling Site 2, and Drilling Site 3) downhole via a central server. The central server pre-configures the IP addresses of the drilling rigs and delivery devices for each drilling site through a backend management interface, supporting IPv4 or IPv6 formats. The central server uses HTTP / HTTPS protocols to perform periodic data synchronization with the drilling rigs and auxiliary devices, and sends control commands to the drilling rigs via interfaces; the APP software and the central server use the WebSocket protocol for real-time data transmission.
[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, the APP software mainly includes the following functional modules: (1) Login and Binding Module: After the APP starts, it enters the login interface (e.g. Figure 2 As shown in the image, when a user enters their username and IP address, the system automatically records the device identifier and completes the binding upon the first login. Subsequent logins will be automatic, eliminating the need to repeatedly enter device information.
[0026] (2) Voice call module: After clicking the dial button, the system will display a list of online users (e.g., Figure 3 (As shown). This module synchronizes user online status in real time, clearly marking "Calling" next to the name of users currently on a call. Users can directly click on the target user's entry to make a one-click call without manually entering the number. A successful call establishes a voice connection for smooth, real-time communication; a failed call automatically returns the user to the online user list.
[0027] (3) Data monitoring module: APP main interface (e.g.) Figure 4 As shown, the system presents three independent tabs: Drilling Site 1, Drilling Site 2, and Drilling Site 3. Users can select only one drilling site for monitoring via touch operation. After selection, the system retrieves real-time status information and key operating parameters of the drilling rig based on its IP address, and simultaneously collects status data of the shipping equipment based on its IP address. All data is integrated by a central server's backend algorithm and then displayed in real-time on the app interface as a view of the on-site operation status. Only one drilling site can be monitored at a time, and each switch triggers a data update.
[0028] (4) Emergency stop control module: located at the bottom of the APP interface (e.g. Figure 5 As shown, three sets of linkage control modules are set up, corresponding to "Drill Rig 1 + Auxiliary 1", "Drill Rig 2 + Auxiliary 2", and "Drill Rig 3 + Auxiliary 3" respectively. Each set of equipment has two states: "Start" and "Stop". After the user clicks any button, the system captures the operation command in real time. After the target equipment state changes, the new state is uploaded to the central server, and the server immediately broadcasts it to all online APP terminals, realizing real-time synchronous refresh of equipment status under multi-user concurrent operation.
[0029] Example 2 Building upon Example 1, the APP software also integrates a terminal operation log recording function. Every dialing operation, drilling site query operation, and emergency stop control operation performed by the user on the APP is recorded as an operation log. The log content includes information such as operation time, operator, operation object, operation type, and operation result, and is stored in a database through a central server for backend administrators to query, filter, and audit via a PC client.
[0030] Example 3 The Android tablet terminal is compatible with the 64-bit Android operating system, meeting the portability and explosion-proof requirements for mobile inspections in underground coal mines. The entire system response time is controlled within 2 seconds after user operation, and it can process at least 1,000 data records per second. The system availability reaches 99.9%, and the fault recovery time does not exceed 5 minutes. All data transmission processes are encrypted to ensure information security in the underground working environment.
[0031] Through the above-described embodiments, this invention successfully integrates functions such as background drilling site IP configuration management, real-time data synchronization, instant voice communication, multi-drilling site switching monitoring, and distributed emergency stop control into a mobile inspection terminal, realizing mobile and intelligent inspection management of the coal mine underground automatic drilling rig centralized control operation line.
[0032] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
