During the inspection, the scene experienced by the trainees is transmitted to the touch screen 3 and displayed synchronously. The storage compartment 12 is used to place the head-mounted display terminal 5 and manage its charging. The head-mounted display terminal 5 is used to display the virtual confined space operation scene. The virtual scene adopts a 3D model to simulate the real confined space operation environment. Cables, tunnels, cable trenches, cable supports, etc. are modeled at a 1:1 scale to simulate the real scene and serve as the main scene of the training system. The communication control module 6 is used to control the coordinated operation of various modules in the training cabin. The graphics processing service terminal 7 is used to provide virtual scene computing support and provide virtual scene signals to the head-mounted display terminal 5. The psychological state monitoring module 11 is worn on the trainees' chest to monitor changes in their psychological state, so as to guide the trainees and provide correct psychological training.

[0027] Training Method 1:

[0028] Taking the psychological training scenario of substation cable trench inspection as an example: Substation cable trenches are regularly inspected: Trainees conduct inspections according to standard operating procedures.

[0029] Trainees prepare for the job in a virtual environment: preparing tools, equipment, brooms, etc., and materials such as paint, sandpaper, cable ties, labels, and insulating tape.

[0030] Training on safety risk identification in virtual scenarios: When lifting or removing cable covers, place them gently and steadily to prevent injury or breakage. Cables must not be pulled forcefully, bent, or damaged. Workers must wear appropriate personal protective equipment as required.

[0031] Trainees open cable covers in a virtual environment, enter the interior of the cable trench, and activate humidification, heating, and air circulation modules to create a realistic cable trench environment. Trainees can truly experience the impact of the cable trench working environment on their physical movements and the effects of high temperature and humidity on their physical and mental health.

[0032] Trainees conduct a visual inspection of cables in a simulated environment: cables are neatly arranged, securely fixed, and not under tension; armor is not loose, there is no severe rust or breakage, bending radius meets regulations, and grounding is good; cable protection pipes should be intact, securely fixed, and the pipe openings sealed; the rusted area of ​​metal pipes should not exceed 5% of the total area. Cable trenches are free of water and debris; supports are intact, securely fixed, and free of rust; all installations are complete and without severe damage; and the entrances to indoor cable connections are properly sealed. Cable labels are complete, correct, and clear.

[0033] Inspection personnel conduct a comprehensive inspection of the cable trenches, checking their appearance, internal condition, and grounding status. This includes assessing the trench's coverage, wall damage, and cable arrangement and securing. Detailed inspection records are kept, including the date, personnel, inspection content, problems encountered, and their resolution.

[0034] Trainees complete inspection reports, which include a summary of the inspection findings, problems encountered, and suggested solutions. These reports are then submitted to the relevant departments.

[0035] The psychological state monitoring module monitors the trainees' psychological state in real time, analyzes the psychological changes of the trainees during cable trench inspection tasks through data analysis, and provides an assessment plan.

[0036] Training Method Two

[0037] Taking the psychological training scenario of power cable tunnel inspection operations as an example: Power cable tunnels are regularly inspected, and trainees conduct inspection operations according to standard operating procedures.

[0038] Trainees prepare for the operation by gathering tools, protective equipment, etc. They enter the tunnel through the tunnel entrance in the scenario and activate the humidification, heating, and circulating air modules to create a realistic cable trench environment. Trainees can then experience firsthand the impact of the cable trench work environment on their physical movements and the effects of high temperature and humidity on their physical and mental health.

[0039] Trainees conduct inspections to check whether the ambient temperature inside the tunnel is normal or has any significant changes, whether the water level inside the tunnel is normal, whether there are any odors, dust, or dirt in the air inside the tunnel, whether the lighting inside the tunnel is normal, and whether there is any damage, looseness, or deviation of the road surface or facilities.

[0040] The inspection personnel prepare an inspection record form, which includes the inspection date, the name of the inspection personnel, the inspection location, the inspection results and any abnormalities, and the date of the next inspection.

[0041] The psychological state monitoring module monitors the trainees' psychological state in real time, analyzes the psychological changes of the trainees during cable tunnel inspection operations through data analysis, and provides an assessment plan.

[0042] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not constitute any limitation on the technical scope of the present utility model. Therefore, any minor modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
