Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of equipment maintenance, and in particular to an auxiliary platform for equipment maintenance. Background Art

[0002] During a company's production activities, operations such as equipment installation, disassembly, and maintenance are unavoidable. To ensure the correctness and quality of the equipment installation, disassembly, and maintenance processes, companies generally assign experienced technicians to direct or provide guidance. To standardize these operations, some companies organize the compilation of installation, disassembly, and maintenance work instructions, process cards, or document packages, and other process control documents to provide process guidance and quality control. Technical and management personnel inspect the quality of the completed work on-site and sign the work control documents as a witness to the quality acceptance at each stage.

[0003] However, the method of assigning experienced technicians to guide the operation process is heavily dependent on the technical level and ability of the personnel. If the technician is absent or the skill level does not meet the requirements, it will seriously affect the operation process and operation quality. Therefore, most companies usually adopt the method of operation control documents to carry out process guidance and quality control.

[0004] Currently, due to the limited display capabilities of paper-based documents, operation control documents in various industries primarily describe the operation process or steps in text. More comprehensive operation control documents will include illustrations to best illustrate the operation process, provide accurate guidance to operators, and provide clear supervision and guidance on quality inspection points for quality control personnel. For operation steps described in text, operators must first be familiar with the structure and components of the equipment involved; otherwise, they will not be able to match the text with the actual object. Moreover, even if the images attached to the operation documents are static images, they cannot intuitively display the steps of the process. Accurate interpretation requires more professional technicians, which requires a high level of technical skills from the operators. If the operation site has many operation items or the equipment structure is complex, it will greatly affect the efficiency of the operation. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The following describes the specific embodiments of the present disclosure in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present disclosure and are not intended to limit the present disclosure.

[0025] First, the application scenario of the present disclosure is introduced. The present disclosure is applied in the scenario of equipment maintenance. In the related art, the operation control documents of various industries are limited by the display capacity of paper-based documents, and basically describe the operation process or steps in text. The more comprehensive operation control documents will be illustrated with pictures to illustrate, so as to explain the operation process to the greatest extent, give the operators accurate guidance, and give the quality control personnel clear supervision guidance on the quality inspection points. For the operation steps described in text form, the operators need to be familiar with the structure and components of the equipment involved in the text first, otherwise they will not be able to match the text with the real object; and even if the pictures attached to the operation documents are static pictures, they cannot intuitively display the steps of the process. More professional technicians are required to read them accurately, and the technical level of the operators is required to be high. If there are many operation items on the operation site or the equipment structure is complex, it will greatly affect the efficiency of the operation.

[0026] To solve the above problems, the present disclosure provides an auxiliary platform for equipment maintenance, which includes a base; a support platform is provided above the base, and the base is connected to the support platform via a lifting drive assembly; a bracket is provided on the support platform, and a terminal for video demonstration of equipment maintenance operation procedures is installed in the bracket, and the terminal is communicatively connected to a server via a remote mobile communication device; a play / pause button, a fast-forward button, and a fast-rewind button are provided on the base, and the play / pause button, the fast-forward button, and the fast-rewind button are all electrically connected to the terminal; through the above technical solution, paper operation procedures can be played on-site through the terminal, thereby assisting users in maintaining the equipment; and intuitive video guidance of on-site operations is integrated with the operation quality control process through the terminal and the remote mobile communication device, greatly improving the operation control capability and quality control efficiency, and solving the problem of low work efficiency; in addition, the play / pause button, the fast-forward button, and the fast-rewind button are provided on the base of the platform, so that when workers cannot free their hands to operate the terminal, they can operate the buttons with their feet, thereby improving the operability of the platform and facilitating the workers' operation.

[0027] See Figure 1-Figure 3 The present disclosure provides an auxiliary platform for equipment maintenance, which includes a base 1. A support platform 4 is provided above the base 1, and the base is connected to the support platform 4 via a lifting drive assembly, so that the height of a terminal 7 on the support platform 4 can be adjusted for easy use. A bracket 6 is provided on the support platform 4, and a terminal 7 for video demonstration of the equipment maintenance operation process is installed in the bracket 6. The terminal 7 is connected to the server through a remote mobile communication device. For example, the terminal can be fixed on the bracket; or the terminal can be a mobile terminal, which can be connected to the bracket.

[0028] The remote mobile communication device can transmit information such as the specific procedures for each equipment maintenance operation, the disassembly and assembly repair process and precautions for each operation, the tools and materials used, and the required safety features to Terminal 7 for display. Upon completion of each operation, on-site photos or videos can be uploaded to Terminal 7, and these photos, videos, and other information can be sent to the server via the remote mobile communication device for back-end review of the on-site work quality. This approach integrates intuitive on-site video guidance with the work quality control process via Terminal 7 and the remote mobile communication device, significantly improving both work control capabilities and quality control efficiency.

[0029] In some embodiments, the terminal 7 may include a multimedia screen; the multimedia screen may be a touch screen for easy operation. In addition, the multimedia screen may include an operation process selection area 20, a video playback area 21, and an operation information area 22. Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, the left area of ​​the multimedia screen is the overall and current operation process display area, that is, the operation process selection area 20. In this area, the user can view the overall operation process; the upper right area is the video playback area 21, which can also be the process animation demonstration area for playing demonstration videos; below the video playback area 21 is the operation information area 22, including the current process and quality standard description area, as well as the operation record area, and the operation quality control signature acceptance area.

[0030] When a user clicks on a process in the workflow on the left, that process indicator is highlighted. Simultaneously, the video playback area 21 on the right displays a video of the process steps, along with the required tools and materials. The current process and quality standard description area in the middle right corner provides a detailed description of the current process steps and the quality control standards for that process. This serves as a useful supplement to the graphical video and also serves as a reference for quality management personnel during the quality acceptance process. In the work record area in the middle right corner, operators can record the actual work performed, including any problems encountered, relevant work data, and the cause of the failure, to serve as guidance for future maintenance or disassembly operations. Operators can record the work in writing or upload photos of the work site. After reviewing the quality of the work completed on-site or remotely, technical and quality control personnel may refuse to sign off if the completed process is incorrect or the quality does not meet the standard requirements. If the completed process is correct and the quality meets the standard requirements, they can sign off in the work quality control sign-off area at the bottom right.

[0031] It should be noted that the above description of the partitioning of multimedia screens and the functions of each partition is a conventional technical approach in multimedia screen development. This disclosure aims to facilitate efficient and quick maintenance of traditional paper-based graphic materials through live playback on multimedia screens, addressing the inefficiency of traditional methods. However, this disclosure does not improve multimedia screen development.

[0032] In other embodiments, considering that workers may need to watch relatively difficult steps multiple times during actual operation and may operate by referring to the video, which may result in not having a hand free to operate the screen, the present disclosure provides a play / pause button 8, a fast-forward button 9, and a fast-rewind button 10 on the base 1. The play / pause button 8, the fast-forward button 9, and the fast-rewind button 10 are all electrically connected to the terminal 7. Because these buttons are provided on the base 1, when workers cannot free their hands to operate the screen, they can operate the buttons with their feet. For example, when replaying a certain position, they can rewind the playback by stepping on the fast-rewind button 10. This greatly improves the operability of the platform and makes it more convenient for workers to operate.

[0033] In some embodiments, the lifting drive assembly includes an electric push rod 2 and a connecting rod 3. One end of the electric push rod 2 is fixed to the base 1, and the other end of the electric push rod 2 is fixedly connected to the support platform 4 via the connecting rod 3. The lifting and lowering of the support platform 4 is achieved through the driving action of the electric push rod 2.

[0034] In other embodiments, to provide stability for the installation of the support platform 4, three telescopic rods 12 are hingedly mounted on the bottom of the support platform 4 in this embodiment. Each of the three telescopic rods 12, distal to the support platform 4, is hingedly mounted with a slider. Three slide rails 11 are fixedly provided on the base 1, and the three sliders are slidably connected to the slide rails 11 in a one-to-one correspondence. When the electric push rod 2 is activated, the three telescopic rods 12 extend and contract as the push rod 2 is raised and lowered. The ends of the telescopic rods 12 move within the slide rails 11, allowing the telescopic rods 12 to match the telescopic movement of the push rod 2. The support provided by the three telescopic rods 12 improves the stability of the support platform 4.

[0035] In some embodiments, two heightening rods 5 are fixedly mounted on the support platform 4, and a bracket 6 is fixed to both heightening rods 5. Below the bracket 6, a spare parts storage box 13 is provided on the support platform 4 for storing spare parts needed during maintenance, facilitating maintenance. Furthermore, multiple tool storage boxes 14 are provided on one side of the spare parts storage box 13 for storing tools needed during maintenance, such as screwdrivers and wrenches. The presence of multiple tool storage boxes 14 allows tools to be stored in a categorized manner.

[0036] In other embodiments, the terminal 7 is connected to the bracket 6 via a damping shaft, so that the angle of the terminal 7 can be adjusted to facilitate the staff to watch the instruction video.

[0037] In some embodiments, a plurality of rollers 19 are installed under the base 1 so that the entire platform can move.

[0038] In other embodiments, to help position the platform in its intended use and prevent workers from accidentally stepping under the base 1 when pressing a button, a protective ring 15 is provided on the sidewall of the base 1 in this embodiment, slidably connected thereto. The height of the protective ring 15 is greater than that of the rollers 19. At least two connecting blocks 18 are fixed above the protective ring 15. A protective box 16 is fixed to the base 1, corresponding one-to-one with the connecting blocks 18. A second electric push rod 17 is fixedly mounted on the top of the protective box 16. A slot is defined on one side of the protective box 16, into which the connecting blocks 18 are inserted. The connecting blocks 18 are fixedly connected to the piston end of the second electric push rod 17. To move the platform, the piston end of the second electric push rod 17 retracts into the cylinder, lifting the protective ring 15 off the ground. At this point, the worker pushes the platform to move the rollers 19. Once the platform reaches the desired position, the second electric push rod 17 is activated, extending its piston end and driving the protective ring 15 downward via the connecting blocks 18. When the protective ring 15 contacts the ground, the platform is positioned through the friction between the protective ring 15 and the ground, and the protective ring 15 forms a sealing effect on the bottom of the base 1, which can effectively prevent the staff from accidentally putting their feet under the base 1 when operating the button.

[0039] The operating principle of the present invention is as follows: after confirming that the protective ring 15 is not in contact with the ground, the platform is moved to the desired position. The platform is then powered on, and the electric push rod 2 17 is activated to drive the protective ring 15 into contact with the ground. The desired operation process is then selected from the terminal 7, or the operation process is sent to the terminal 7 via a server or remote mobile communication device. A video of the operation process is then played, enabling real-time viewing and on-site learning of the operation site.

[0040] In summary, the present disclosure provides an auxiliary platform for equipment maintenance, which includes a base; a support platform is provided above the base, and the base is connected to the support platform through a lifting drive assembly; a bracket is provided on the support platform, and a terminal for video demonstration of equipment maintenance operation procedures is installed in the bracket, and the terminal is connected to the server through a remote mobile communication device; a play / pause button, a fast-forward button and a fast-rewind button are provided on the base, and the play / pause button, the fast-forward button and the fast-rewind button are all electrically connected to the terminal; through the above technical solution, the paper operation procedures can be played on-site through the terminal, thereby assisting users in maintaining the equipment; and the intuitive video guidance of on-site operations and the operation quality control process are integrated through the terminal and the remote mobile communication device, which greatly improves the operation control capability and quality control efficiency and solves the problem of low work efficiency; and the base of the platform is provided with a play / pause button, a fast-forward button and a fast-rewind button, so that when the staff cannot free their hands to operate the terminal, they can operate the buttons by foot, thereby improving the operability of the platform and facilitating the staff's operation.

[0041] The preferred embodiments of the present disclosure are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present disclosure is not limited to the specific details of the above embodiments. Within the technical concept of the present disclosure, various simple modifications can be made to the technical solutions of the present disclosure, and these simple modifications all fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0042] It should also be noted that the various specific technical features described in the above specific embodiments can be combined in any appropriate manner without contradiction. In order to avoid unnecessary repetition, the present disclosure will not further describe various possible combinations.

[0043] In addition, the various embodiments of the present disclosure may be arbitrarily combined, and as long as they do not violate the concept of the present disclosure, they should also be regarded as the contents disclosed by the present disclosure.
