Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to an electric socket box monitoring device, in particular to a remote monitoring device for the usage status of a low-voltage onshore power socket box based on optical fiber communication. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, the world's shipping trade has been booming, and the throughput of trade goods at major ports in China ranks among the top in the world. During the period when a ship is docked, the fuel generator must continuously supply power to ensure the normal operation of the ship's electrical equipment. However, the fuel utilization rate of the fuel generator is low, the excessive generated electric energy cannot be stored, and the pollutants generated by combustion also cause great environmental pollution to the port city.

[0003] The technology of ship shore power (shore power definition: a system in which power is supplied from the shore side to the ship side during the period when a ship is docked at a port. When the capacity of the dock shore power system is below 1 MVA, a low-voltage shore power solution is often adopted) enables a ship to obtain grid power from the dock during the docking period, thereby shutting down its own generator, effectively solving the environmental and noise pollution problems of the docked ship.

[0004] Our company has built 9 low-voltage socket boxes with 18 sockets. It is often time-consuming and laborious to conduct regular inspections. Therefore, it is particularly important to ensure the normal use of shore power equipment and detect and handle faults in a timely manner. Content of the Utility Model

The IOT gateway is used to connect various IOT devices to achieve interconnection and interoperability between devices. The switching power supply is used to provide a stable DC power supply. The socket body is communicatively connected to the digital input module through an optical fiber link. The digital input module is communicatively connected to the host computer through a 485 optical modem and in cooperation with the optical fiber link. The digital signal of the socket body reaches the digital input module via the optical fiber link and the data is accessed to the host computer through the 485 optical modem.

[0015] It also includes an intermediate relay, which is used to clarify the digital signal of the socket box.

[0016] It also includes a breaker auxiliary contact, which is connected to the indicator light circuit to display the opening and closing status of the breaker.

[0017] This device uses optical fiber communication as the communication cable. By collecting the digital signals (breaker closed status, emergency stop button status, contactor status) of the low-voltage onshore power socket box (hereinafter referred to as "socket box"), and using the Internet of Things monitoring technology, remote monitoring, active alarm, analysis of the fault status and causes of the socket box are realized on the web page, thus greatly reducing the manual inspection cost and maintaining the low-voltage onshore power equipment more timely.

[0019] The device for signal transmission adopts the (AMD-3320-FC) 485 optical modem, which is professionally designed to solve the communication between RS-485 / 422 serial port signals and optical fiber signals. The optical modem AMD-3320-FC provides transparent data transmission from the RS-485 / 422 serial port to the optical fiber end, and can transmit the serial port signal stably and over a long distance to the remote end. The RS485 optical fiber converter works in a paired manner, and can more conveniently transmit the user's serial port signal through optical fiber transmission and then restore it to a serial port signal. The signal transmitted in the optical fiber is an optical signal, which has no conductivity and is not affected by electromagnetic waves and lightning, so it has strong anti-interference ability. It is especially suitable for use in outdoor occasions with relatively harsh working environments and long distances. It adopts a modular design method, which is convenient for customers to flexibly select or customize the configuration according to specific application situations, and is convenient for users to improve the utilization rate of optical cables; it has the advantages of high integration, small size, low power consumption, reliable operation, convenient installation and use, etc.
