[0034] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.
[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, the generator excitation online monitoring system device includes a system server cabinet 1 (such as Figure 2 As shown) connected to the collector ring device 2 (as shown Figure 3 As shown), shaft voltage and shaft current monitoring device 3 (as shown Figure 4 As shown) and the excitation variable acquisition device 4 (as Figure 5 As shown), the shaft voltage and shaft current monitoring device is connected to the generator 14 through the shaft voltage and shaft current sensor 10, the excitation transformer acquisition device 4 is connected to the copper bus temperature sensor 11 and the iron core temperature sensor 12 in the excitation transformer chamber 4-1, and the slip ring acquisition device 2 is connected to the slip ring carbon brush current sensor 5, the slip ring carbon brush temperature sensor 8, the slip ring carbon brush ignition sensor 6, the slip ring temperature and humidity sensor 8 and the slip ring hydrogen sensor 9.
[0036] like Figure 4 As shown, the shaft voltage and shaft current sensor 10 is installed at the steam end 14-1 and the excitation end 14-2 of the generator main shaft. The shaft voltage and shaft current sensor 10 is connected to the steam end 14-1 through a grounding copper braid and to the excitation end 14-2 through a measuring carbon brush. The shaft voltage and shaft current sensor 10 is provided with a secondary side output line 10-1. The grounding wire 10-2 provided to the shaft voltage and shaft current sensor 10 is grounded. The shaft voltage and shaft current sensor 10 detects the voltage and current data at both ends of the generator main shaft steam and excitation through the principle of electromagnetic induction. The conductor to be measured is connected at the primary coil, and an induced electromotive force is obtained at the secondary coil. This electromotive force is converted into a corresponding voltage and current signal and forwarded to the generator shaft voltage and shaft current monitoring device, and the detected data is collected, processed, and forwarded to the chip in the shaft voltage and shaft current monitoring device 3.
[0037] The shaft voltage and shaft current monitoring device 3 is composed of a shaft voltage acquisition module, a shaft current acquisition module, and a core processing module. The shaft voltage acquisition module and the shaft current acquisition module receive shaft voltage and shaft current sensors 5 (such as Figure 10 The shaft voltage and shaft current analog signals forwarded by the system are converted and filtered by the core processing module, and the processed data are displayed on the screen. At the same time, they are forwarded to the system server cabinet 1. When the system server cabinet alarms, the shaft voltage and shaft current monitoring device 3 will also alarm at the same time.
[0038] Slip ring carbon brush current sensor 5 (such as Figure 6As shown) is installed on the carbon brush braid of the collector ring chamber 13, the collector ring carbon brush temperature sensor 6 is installed on the upper part of the inner wall of the generator collector ring chamber 13, the collector ring carbon brush ignition sensor 7 is installed on the slip ring windshield of the generator collector ring chamber 13, the collector ring temperature and humidity sensor is installed on one side of the inner wall of the generator collector ring chamber, and the collector ring hydrogen sensor 9 is installed on the other side of the inner wall of the generator collector ring chamber 13. The collector ring carbon brush current sensor 5 detects the current on the generator collector ring carbon brush braid through the Hall effect and collects the actual current data on the carbon brush braid. When current flows through the brush braid, a magnetic field is generated around the brush braid, and the current sensor core gathers the magnetic lines of force to the air gap, so that the output end of the Hall element obtains a voltage signal proportional to the magnetic induction intensity, and then the signal is amplified and output through the amplifier circuit, and the collected signal is processed, converted into a corresponding current signal and forwarded to the collector ring acquisition device 2;
[0039] Slip ring carbon brush temperature sensor 6 (such as Figure 7 (as shown) This device detects infrared radiation from a target object based on the principle of thermal radiation and converts the target object's temperature distribution image into a video image through photoelectric conversion, signal processing, and other means.

This is a way of passively receiving infrared radiation emitted by the object. The core component is the infrared detector, which is responsible for receiving the infrared rays emitted by the object and converting them into electrical signals. These electrical signals are then processed and converted into image signals to form a thermal imaging map and temperature distribution corresponding to the thermal distribution of the object surface.
[0041] Slip ring carbon brush ignition sensor 7 (such as Figure 8 The device detects the carbon brush ignition ultraviolet light by using the ultraviolet probe in the sensor with a narrow spectrum resolution of 280-400nm, and collects, processes and forwards the detected data to the corresponding chip in the slip ring collection device 2;

The copper bar temperature sensor 11 and the iron core temperature sensor 12 are respectively provided on the copper bar and the iron core. The copper bar temperature sensor 11 and the iron core temperature sensor 12 are connected to the corresponding chips in the excitation transformer acquisition device 4.
[0046] Copper busbar temperature sensor 11 (such as Figure 12 As shown) is installed on the copper bar 4-1 of the generator excitation transformer chamber, and the core temperature sensor 12 (as shown) Figure 13 As shown) is installed inside the generator excitation transformer chamber 4-1, the copper busbar temperature sensor 11 is wirelessly powered and transmits power. The copper busbar temperature sensor 11 obtains the induced electromotive force through the principle of electromagnetic induction and operates as a sensor. It collects the temperature data on the copper busbars on the high and low voltage sides of the excitation transformer ABC three-phase through a thermistor. The output terminal voltage of the thermistor is proportional to the actual temperature. The voltage signal at the output terminal is processed and converted into corresponding temperature data, which is forwarded to the excitation transformer acquisition device 4 through wireless transmission. The core temperature sensor 12 detects the core temperature data on the high and low voltage sides of the excitation transformer ABC three-phase through the principle of thermal radiation, and collects, processes and forwards the detected temperature data.
