[0035] In order to have a clearer understanding of the technical features, objectives, and effects of the present utility model, the specific embodiments of the present utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following description, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationships indicated by "front", "rear", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "longitudinal", "transverse", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "head", "tail", etc. are based on the orientation or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and are constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and are only for the convenience of describing the present technical solution, rather than indicating that the indicated devices or elements must have a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be construed as a limitation to the present utility model.
[0036] When an automated device monitors its operating status during operation, one monitoring method is to monitor the status indicator 23 of the automated device in real time, and then monitor the operating status of the automated device in real time. Among the status indicators 23 of the automated device, the more commonly used status indicator 23 is a three-color light composed of a red light, a green light, and a yellow light. Among them, the red light indicates that the automated device has stopped running due to a fault, the yellow light indicates that the automated device has stopped running under non-fault conditions, and the green light indicates that the automated device is running normally.
[0037] In some application scenarios, the automated device does not have an Internet connection function. In order to achieve real-time monitoring of the operating conditions of the automated device, the automated device will be transformed and upgraded so that the remote monitoring terminal can monitor the operating conditions of the automated device in real time. During the transformation and upgrade of the automated device, the integrity of the automated device will be damaged, and there is a problem of affecting the service life of the automated device.
[0038] Based on the above existing problems, the present utility model provides a status monitoring device for an automated device, which is used to monitor the operating status of the automated device in real time.
[0039] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、and Figure 4 shown, a status monitoring device for an automated device provided by the present utility model. A status indicator 23 for displaying the status of the automated device is provided on the automated device; the status monitoring device may include a support frame 11, a housing 12, a photosensitive sensor 13, a wireless transmission module 15, and a control module 14.
[0040] Among them, the support frame 11 is provided on the automated device; the housing 12 is provided on the support frame 11, and the housing 12 has an accommodation chamber, and a printed circuit board 21 (PCB, Printed Circuit Board) is provided in the accommodation chamber;
[0041] The photosensitive sensor 13 is used to receive optical signals and output electrical signals. The photosensitive sensor 13 is installed on the support frame 11, and each indicator light in the status indicator light 23 corresponds to a photosensitive sensor 13. Each photosensitive sensor 13 is arranged on one side of each indicator light, so that when an indicator light is on, the corresponding photosensitive sensor 13 can receive the optical signal and output an electrical signal; the control module 14 is connected to the photosensitive sensor 13, the control module 14 is arranged on the printed circuit board 21, and the control module 14 is used to receive the electrical signal and output a status signal according to the electrical signal; the wireless transmission module 15 is connected to the control module 14 and the remote monitoring end, the wireless transmission module 15 is arranged on the printed circuit board 21, the wireless transmission module 15 is used to communicate with the remote monitoring end, and the wireless transmission module 15 is also used to receive the status signal and output a status indicator light signal to the remote monitoring end according to the status signal.
[0042] Specifically, when setting the photosensitive sensor 13, the number of photosensitive sensors 13 set is related to the number of indicator lights in the status indicator light 23. It is necessary to ensure that each indicator light corresponds to a photosensitive sensor 13. Among them, each indicator light corresponding to a photosensitive sensor 13 means that when the indicator light is on, only one photosensitive sensor 13 can receive the optical signal of the indicator light being on and output an electrical signal. For example, when monitoring the status indicator light 23 composed of the above-mentioned three-color lights (red light, yellow light, and green light), three photosensitive sensors 13 need to be set. The three photosensitive sensors 13 are respectively set corresponding to the three-color lights in the status indicator light 23. That is, it is ensured that when the red light is on, only the photosensitive sensor 13 corresponding to the red light can receive the optical signal emitted by the red light, when the yellow light is on, only the photosensitive sensor 13 corresponding to the yellow light can receive the optical signal emitted by the yellow light, and when the green light is on, only the photosensitive sensor 13 corresponding to the green light can receive the optical signal emitted by the green light. Under the condition that the photosensitive sensor 13 meets the above requirements, those skilled in the art can determine the specific setting position of the photosensitive sensor 13 according to actual needs, and no further limitation is made here.
[0043] When applying this status monitoring device to monitor the status of the automation device, when the indicator light in the status indicator light 23 is on, the photosensitive sensor 13 at the corresponding position will receive the optical signal and output an electrical signal. The control module 14 outputs a status signal according to the received electrical signal. The wireless transmission module 15 receives the status signal and outputs a status indicator light signal to the remote monitoring end according to the status signal, so as to monitor the running status of the automation device in real time through the remote monitoring end.
[0044] It can be seen that when this status monitoring device monitors the status of the automation device, only the support frame 11 needs to be installed on the automation device and the photosensitive sensor 13 needs to be set corresponding to the indicator light, without damaging the integrity of the automation device.
[0045] In this embodiment, the electrical signal output by the photosensitive sensor 13 is a voltage signal. When monitoring the indicator light in the status indicator light 23, the control module 14 outputs a status signal (high level or low level, high level indicates that the corresponding indicator light is on, and low level indicates that the corresponding indicator light is off) to the wireless transmission module 15 according to the received voltage signal output by the photosensitive sensor 13. The wireless transmission module 15 receives the status signal and outputs a status light indication signal (digital signal) to the remote monitoring end, and realizes the real-time monitoring of the operating status of the automation device through the remote monitoring end.
[0046] In some embodiments, as Figure 4 shown, the status monitoring device further includes a sensor sensitivity regulator 16. The sensor sensitivity regulator 16 is used to adjust the photosensitive sensor 13. Each photosensitive sensor 13 is correspondingly provided with a sensor sensitivity regulator 16. The sensor sensitivity regulator 16 is respectively connected to the control module 14 and the corresponding photosensitive sensor 13.
[0047] Specifically, the sensor sensitivity regulator 16 is installed on the printed circuit board 21. When setting the sensor sensitivity regulator 16, each photosensitive sensor 13 is correspondingly provided with a sensor sensitivity regulator 16, that is, to ensure that the sensitivity of each photosensitive sensor 13 can be adjusted through the corresponding sensor sensitivity regulator 16. Among them, the sensor sensitivity regulator 16 can be a potentiometer, a slide rheostat, etc. For example, the sensor sensitivity regulator 16 can be, but is not limited to, a regulator with the model 3362-P-1-103.
[0048] In this embodiment, the sensitivity of the photosensitive sensor 13 can be adjusted through the sensor sensitivity regulator 16 to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the photosensitive sensor 13.
[0049] In some embodiments, as Figure 4 shown, the status monitoring device further includes a power interface 17 provided on the printed circuit board 21 and connected to the wireless transmission module 15, the control module 14 and the photosensitive sensor 13. The power interface 17 is used to access an external power supply to supply power to the wireless transmission module 15, the control module 14 and the photosensitive sensor 13 by the external power supply.
[0050] The power interface 17 can be a USB interface, a TYPC interface, etc. When accessing a charging power supply through the power interface 17, an external power supply can be accessed to the power interface 17 through a power adapter 24. Among them, when supplying power to the photosensitive sensor 13, the control module 14 and the wireless transmission module 15, the external power supply supplies power to the wireless transmission module 15, the control module 14 and the photosensitive sensor 13.
[0051] In this embodiment, the power supply method of accessing an external power supply through the power interface 17 further ensures the integrity of the automated device (without taking power from the automated device).
[0052] In some embodiments, as Figure 4 shown, the status monitoring device further includes a sensor connection port 18. The sensor connection port 18 is connected to the power interface 17, the control module 14, and the photosensitive sensor 13. The sensor connection port 18 is used to connect the photosensitive sensor 13 to the power interface 17 and the control module 14.
[0053] Specifically, when setting the sensor connection port 18, the number of photosensitive sensors 13 to be set needs to be considered, that is, all the set photosensitive sensors 13 can be connected to the control module 14 and the power interface 17 through the sensor connection port 18, so that when the power interface 17 accesses an external power supply, it can supply power to all the photosensitive sensors 13 through the sensor connection port 18, and it can also enable signal transmission between any photosensitive sensor 13 and the control module 14. For example, when the status indicator light 23 is a three-color light (red light, yellow light, green light), a connector with the model S6B-PH-K-S can be selected. Those skilled in the art can determine the sensor connection port 18 according to the actual situation, and no more limitations will be made here.
[0054] In this embodiment, the setting of the sensor connection port 18 makes it simple and convenient to replace the photosensitive sensor 13 if the photosensitive sensor 13 fails during use.
[0055] In some application scenarios, multiple automated devices (such as fifty, one hundred, etc.) will be placed in the same production area. Among them, when the automated devices are shut down under non-fault conditions, for example, when the automated devices need maintenance (replacing parts, adjusting parameters, cleaning and maintaining, replenishing materials, etc.), multiple automated devices may be shut down simultaneously, and multiple on-site workers are required to maintain the shut-down automated devices. Because there are many automated devices, the required site is also large. In the existing status indicator lights 23, due to the large number of automated devices and the large site, on-site workers cannot see the status indicator lights 23, resulting in multiple on-site workers maintaining the same automated device at the same time.
[0056] To solve the problem that due to the large number of automated devices and the large site, on-site workers cannot see the status indicator lights 23, resulting in multiple on-site workers maintaining the same automated device at the same time. As Figure 3 、 Figure 4As shown, the status monitoring device further includes a switch module 19 and a non-fault shutdown indication module 20 disposed on the printed circuit board 21; the non-fault shutdown indication module 20 includes a first signal lamp 201, and the first signal lamp 201 is disposed in the accommodation chamber of the housing 12. The first signal lamp 201 is connected to the power interface 17 through the switch module 19. An optical exit hole 121 communicating with the accommodation chamber and located above the first signal lamp 201 is formed in the top of the housing 12, so that when the first signal lamp 201 is lit, a light signal is emitted from the optical exit hole 121; the switch module 19 is connected to the control module 14; wherein, when the automated equipment shuts down without fault, the control module 14 is further configured to control the switch module 19 to energize and light the first signal lamp 201.
[0057] Specifically, the switch module 19 can be a module composed of relay switches or a module composed of switching tubes (such as triodes, field effect tubes, etc.). Hereinafter, an example in which the switch module 19 is a module composed of relay switches will be used for illustration.
[0058] When the relay switch is arranged, the relay switch is connected to the control module 14, and the first signal lamp 201 is connected to the power interface 17 through the relay switch. Wherein, when the relay switch is in the closed state, it means that the switch module 19 is in the closed state; when the relay switch is in the open state, it means that the switch module 19 is in the open state.
[0059] When the first signal lamp 201 is lit, the relay switch is controlled by the control module 14. When the relay switch is closed, the external power supply connected through the power interface 17 supplies power to the first signal lamp 201. At this time, the first signal lamp 201 is lit; when the relay switch is open, the first signal lamp 201 loses power.
[0060] When the optical exit hole 121 is formed, it is formed in the top of the housing 12 and above the first signal lamp 201. The purpose of forming the optical exit hole 121 above the first signal is to emit a light beam through the optical exit hole 121 when the first signal lamp 201 is lit.
[0061] In this embodiment, when multiple on-site workers are required to maintain multiple automated devices, when an on-site worker arrives at a certain automated device, an arrival instruction can be sent to the remote monitoring end through the handheld terminal carried. The remote monitoring end can determine the specific location of the automated device maintained by the on-site worker according to the received arrival instruction, and then enable the control module 14 to control the relay switch to close. At this time, the first signal lamp 201 is lit, and a light beam is emitted from the light-emitting hole 121. Since the light-emitting hole 121 is located at the top of the housing 12, the light signal emitted from the light-emitting hole 121 is emitted upward, so that the on-site worker can also see the light beam at a far position. When there is a light beam above a certain automated device, it means that an on-site worker is maintaining the automated device. At this time, there is no need to maintain the automated device anymore, avoiding multiple on-site workers from maintaining the same automated device at the same time.
[0062] Furthermore, the non-fault shutdown indication module 20 further includes a signal lamp interface 202 for installing the first signal lamp 201. The signal lamp interface 202 is arranged on the printed circuit board 21, and the first signal lamp 201 is connected to the switch module 19 through the signal lamp interface 202.
[0063] Specifically, the first signal lamp 201 can be an LED (Light Emitting Diode) light source with a positive pin and a negative pin, and the signal lamp interface 202 can be an interface with a positive socket and a negative socket. The LED light source is inserted on the signal lamp interface 202 through the positive pin and the negative pin.
[0064] Among them, when power is supplied to the LED light source, the control module 14 is used to control the switch module 19 to close. At this time, when an external power source is connected to the power interface 17, the external power source supplies power to the first signal lamp 201 after passing through the power interface 17, the switch module 19, and the signal lamp interface 202.
[0065] In this embodiment, the setting method of the signal lamp interface 202 makes it convenient to replace the first signal lamp 201 when the first signal lamp 201 is damaged.
[0066] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 shown, the support frame 11 can include a support component 111 and a fixing component 112. The support component 111 is installed on the fixing component 112, the housing 12 is installed on the support component 111, the photosensitive sensor 13 is installed on the support component 111, and the fixing member is detachably connected to the status indicator lamp 23.
[0067] In this embodiment, the status monitoring device can be installed on the status indicator light 23. Specifically, during installation, the fixing component 112 can be installed on the status indicator light 23, and further, the supporting component 111 can be installed on the fixing component 112. Among them, the housing 12 and the photosensitive sensor 13 are installed on the supporting component 111.
[0068] Here, it should be noted that when installing the photosensitive sensor 13, it is necessary to ensure that each indicator light in the status indicator light 23 corresponds to a photosensitive sensor 13.
[0069] Furthermore, the status indicator light 23 can include a columnar housing 12 and a plurality of indicator lights arranged in the columnar housing 12. The plurality of indicator lights are arranged in the columnar housing 12 in sequence from top to bottom. The supporting component 111 can include a support rod 1111 and a first fixing member 1112. The first fixing member 1112 is installed at the top of the support rod 1111, and the housing 12 is installed on the first fixing member 1112. The photosensitive sensors 13 are installed on the support rod 1111 in sequence from top to bottom and are arranged corresponding to each indicator light. The fixing component 112 can include a plurality of first annular clamps 1121. The plurality of first annular clamps 1121 are installed on the support rod 1111 at intervals from top to bottom, and the plurality of first annular clamps 1121 are detachably sleeved on the columnar housing 12.
[0070] Specifically, the support rod 1111 can be a longitudinally long rod. When installing the photosensitive sensor 13, a plurality of installation holes (related to the number of photosensitive sensors 13, each photosensitive sensor 13 corresponds to an installation hole) can be sequentially opened at intervals from top to bottom on the longitudinally long rod. Among them, the longitudinally long rod can be made of an elastic material. When opening the installation holes, the inner contour of the installation holes is slightly smaller than the outer contour of the photosensitive sensor 13, so that when installing the photosensitive sensor 13, it can be directly embedded in the installation holes.
[0071] The columnar housing 12 can be, but is not limited to, a cylindrical housing 12. Correspondingly, the first annular clamp 1121 is a circular annular clamp. The circular annular clamp can be made of an elastic material. Among them, the inner diameter of the circular annular clamp is slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the cylindrical housing 12. Because the circular annular clamp is made of an elastic material and the inner diameter of the circular annular clamp is slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the cylindrical housing 12, therefore, the circular annular clamp can be sleeved on the cylindrical housing 12 by sleeving, that is, the first annular clamp 1121 is detachably sleeved on the columnar housing 12.
[0072] Here, it should be noted that the columnar housing 12 can also be of other shapes. Correspondingly, the first annular clamp 1121 is an annular clamp corresponding to the shape of the columnar housing 12 (which can be sleeved on the columnar housing 12).
[0073] In this embodiment, when preparing the first annular clamp 1121 and the support rod 1111, an integrally formed manner can be selected for preparation. Of course, after separately preparing the first annular clamp 1121 and the support rod 1111, the first annular clamp 1121 can be installed on the support rod 1111. For example, the first annular clamp 1121 can be installed on the support rod 1111 by means of adhesive connection, threaded connection, etc.
[0074] In this embodiment, the installation method of the first annular clamp 1121 on the status indicator light 23 makes the installation simple and convenient.
[0075] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 shown, a base 22 for installing the printed circuit board 21 is provided at the bottom of the housing 12. One end of the printed circuit board 21 installed on the base 22 is located inside the accommodation chamber of the housing 12, and the end of the base 22 far from the installation of the printed circuit board 21 is located outside the housing 12. The end of the base 22 located outside the housing 12 is installed on the first fixing member 1112.
[0076] Specifically, an installation hole is opened at the bottom of the housing 12. One end of the printed circuit board 21 installed on the base 22 extends into the accommodation chamber of the housing 12 through the installation hole, and the end of the base 22 far from the installation of the printed circuit board 21 is located outside the housing 12.
[0077] Among them, when installing the printed circuit board 21, a plurality of positioning holes 211 can be opened on the printed circuit board 21. Correspondingly, a plurality of studs 221 with external threads are provided on the base 22, which are in one-to-one correspondence with the positioning holes 211 on the printed circuit board 21 when the printed circuit board 21 is installed on the base 22. The printed circuit board 21 is installed on the base 22 through nuts.
[0078] When installing the base 22, the base 22 can be a columnar base 22; the first fixing member 1112 can be a second annular clamp, and the second annular clamp is arranged at the top of the support rod 1111, and the columnar base 22 is embedded in the second annular clamp.
[0079] Specifically, the columnar base 22 can be a cylindrical base 22. The housing 12 can be made of an elastic material. Among them, when opening the installation hole at the bottom of the housing 12, a circular hole can be opened, and the diameter of the circular hole is slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the cylindrical base 22. When connecting the housing 12 and the base 22, the housing 12 can be buckled onto one end of the base 22 for installing the printed circuit board 21 through the installation hole in a buckling manner.
[0080] Here, it should be noted that when setting the base 22 and opening the mounting holes, the outer contour dimensions of the printed circuit board 21 need to be considered to ensure that when the housing 12 and the base 22 are connected at the end where the printed circuit board 21 is installed, the printed circuit board 21 does not affect the installation of the housing 12 and the base 22.
[0081] Correspondingly, the second annular hoop is a circular hoop made of an elastic material. When the second annular hoop is prepared, the inner diameter of the second annular hoop is slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the columnar base 22. Since the inner diameter of the second annular hoop is slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the columnar base 22 and the second annular hoop is made of an elastic material, one end of the columnar base 22 far from the installation of the printed circuit board 21 can be embedded in the second annular hoop (that is, the second annular hoop is sleeved on the base 22).
[0082] In some embodiments, the wireless transmission module 15 can be a transmission module capable of implementing the above functions, such as a Bluetooth transmission module, a WiFi transmission module, etc. For example, the wireless transmission module 15 can be, but is not limited to, a WiFi transmission module of model ESP-12F.
[0083] In some embodiments, the control module 14 can be a module capable of implementing the above functions. For example, the control module 14 can be, but is not limited to, a comparison circuit built with a device of model LM393. When the photosensitive sensor 13 outputs an electrical signal to the comparison circuit built with LM393, the comparison circuit built with LM393 outputs a high level (i.e., a status signal) to the wireless transmission module 15, and then the wireless transmission module 15 outputs a status light indication signal (digital signal) to the remote monitoring end; when the automated device stops operating due to non-failure, the comparison circuit built with LM393 outputs a high level to the switch module 19 to energize the first signal lamp 201.
[0084] Here, it should be noted that the above comparison circuit built with LM393 is only one implementation manner of the control module 14, and the control module 14 can also have other implementation manners. For example, a comparison circuit built with a device having the same function as LM393.
[0085] In some embodiments, the present invention also provides a status monitoring system for an automated device as described above. The status monitoring system can include a remote monitoring end, and the remote monitoring end is communicatively connected to the wireless transmission module 15 in the status monitoring device for an automated device as described above.
[0086] The remote monitoring end can include a server and a display screen. The server is connected to the wireless transmission module 15, and the display screen is connected to the server. The display screen is used to display the status of the automated device in real time.
[0087] To better understand the working principle of the status monitoring device and that of the status monitoring system, the status indicator light 23, which is a three-color light, is taken as an example for illustration. The three-color light includes a red light, a green light, and a yellow light. Among them, the red light indicates that the automated equipment has stopped running due to a fault, the yellow light indicates that the automated equipment has stopped running under non-fault conditions, and the green light indicates that the automated equipment is running normally.
[0088] Specifically, during installation, the first annular hoop 1121 can be sleeved on the status indicator light 23, and it is ensured that a photosensitive sensor 13 is provided for each indicator light. Subsequently, the control module 14 is connected to the server through the wireless transmission module 15.
[0089] Among them, when the automated equipment is turned on and running normally, at this time, the green light in the status indicator light 23 is on. The photosensitive sensor 13 corresponding to the green light outputs an electrical signal to the control module 14 after receiving the optical signal. The control module 14 outputs a status signal to the wireless transmission module 15 according to the received electrical signal. The wireless transmission module 15 outputs a status light indication signal to the server. After receiving the status light indication signal, the server displays it in real time on the display screen (the automated equipment is running normally), and at the same time records the time and displays it on the display screen; when the green light in the status indicator light 23 is off, the control module 14 can also output a status signal (the automated equipment has stopped running) to the wireless transmission module 15. The wireless transmission module 15 outputs a status light indication signal to the server. After receiving the status light indication signal, the server displays it in real time on the display screen (the automated equipment has stopped running), and displays it in real time on the display screen (the automated equipment has stopped running). At the same time, it records the time and displays it on the display screen, and further calculates the specific normal running time of the automated equipment and displays it on the display screen.
[0090] When the automated equipment is under maintenance, at this time, the yellow light in the status indicator light 23 of the automated equipment will be lit. The specific process can refer to the process of monitoring the status of the automated equipment when the green light is on, which will not be elaborated here.
[0091] Among them, when the automated equipment is under maintenance, when the on-site staff arrives at the location of the automated equipment that needs to be maintained, they send an arrival instruction to the server through the handheld terminal. The server can determine the specific location of the automated equipment maintained by the on-site staff according to the received arrival instruction, and make the control module 14 in the status monitoring device on the automated equipment maintained by the on-site staff control the switch module 19 in the status monitoring device on the automated equipment maintained by the on-site staff, so that the first signal light 201 in the status monitoring device on the automated equipment maintained by the on-site staff is powered on and lit.
[0092] When the automated device fails, at this time, the red light in the status indicator 23 of the automated device is lit. For the specific process, reference can be made to the process of monitoring the status of the automated device when the green light is on, which will not be elaborated here.
[0093] Here, it should be noted that the description of the above status monitoring device for the automated device is similar to that of the embodiment of the status monitoring system for the automated device, and has beneficial effects similar to those of the above status monitoring device for the automated device. For the technical details not disclosed in the embodiment of the status monitoring system for the automated device in this embodiment, please refer to the description of the embodiment of the status monitoring device for the automated device of the present utility model for understanding.
[0094] In summary, a status monitoring device and system for an automated device provided by the present utility model have the following effects:
[0095] When monitoring the status of the automated device, when the indicator light in the status indicator 23 is on, the photosensitive sensor 13 at the corresponding position will receive the optical signal and output an electrical signal. The control module 14 outputs a status signal according to the received electrical signal. The wireless transmission module 15 receives the status signal and outputs a status light indication signal to the remote monitoring end according to the status signal, so as to monitor the operating status of the automated device in real time through the remote monitoring end. When the status monitoring device of the automated device performs real-time monitoring on the automated device, only the support frame 11 needs to be installed on the automated device and the photosensitive sensor 13 is arranged corresponding to the indicator light, without damaging the integrity of the automated device.
