[0030] To address the limitations of existing hot work monitoring and control equipment, which struggles to accommodate diverse hot work monitoring needs and has a narrow scope of application, this invention provides a control box for hot work monitoring. Employing a modular design, it is compatible with the communication protocols of various monitoring devices, enabling the collection of diverse monitoring data for different hot work operations. Furthermore, the data gateway used for data processing can be flexibly replaced according to data processing requirements, minimizing adjustment costs and effectively improving the control box's applicability and reducing operating costs.

[0031] Specifically, please refer to Figure 1 The diagram shows the main structure of the control box based on hot work monitoring in this embodiment, including: a vertical box 100, a mounting rail 110, a connecting base plate 120 and a power module 130 installed inside the box. The mounting rail 110 is equipped with a network switch 112, a data gateway 113 and a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) communication module 111, so that the network switch 112, data gateway 113 and PLC communication module 111 can be easily replaced through mounting operations.

[0032] The main replacement requirement is for the data gateway 113 used for data processing. Different data gateways 113 need to be replaced depending on the different data processing requirements. In this embodiment, to facilitate the replacement of the data gateway 113, the network switch 112, the data gateway 113, and the PLC communication module 111 are arranged side by side on the mounting rail, with the data gateway 113 located on the outside. When replacing the data gateway 113, especially when the mounting rail 110 is a sliding rail, the disassembly and assembly of the network switch 112 and the data gateway 113 can be avoided, thus improving the ease of operation.

[0033] The top of the enclosure 100 is also provided with an antenna interface 145 for connecting the antenna 151. The antenna interface 145 is connected to the data gateway 113 via an RF cable, so that after the data gateway 113 is replaced, the replacement data gateway 113 can be connected to the antenna 151 through the RF cable connection.

[0034] The PLC bus interface 141 and network interface 142 are led out from the side of the enclosure 100 and are used to access the monitoring data of the monitoring instruments. Depending on the data protocol of the monitoring instruments, the corresponding interface can be selected. In addition, multiple monitoring instruments can be connected to the local area network, and multiple monitoring data can be uploaded through the local area network and network interface 142.

[0035] Both the PLC communication module 111 and the network switch 112 are connected to the data gateway 113 according to standard protocols. The PLC communication module 111 is connected to the PLC bus interface 141 via the base plate 120, allowing it to receive monitoring data from monitoring instruments based on the PLC bus communication protocol and convert it to the communication protocol of the data gateway 113 for processing. The network switch 112 is connected to the network interface 142 via the base plate 120, allowing it to receive monitoring data from detection instruments based on Ethernet communication and convert it to the communication protocol of the data gateway 113 for processing.

[0036] Data gateway 113 can perform preprocessing such as data cleaning, normalization, and standardization on various received monitoring data, as well as risk analysis on hot work operations based on preset risk judgments, data storage, and other operations. Then, it can upload the collected and processed data or the monitored risk results to remote servers such as monitoring platforms and user mobile terminals through wireless communication networks.

[0037] For ease of installation, in this embodiment, the mounting rail 110, the connecting base plate 120, and the power module 130 are arranged sequentially from top to bottom at intervals and are fixedly connected to the housing 100 by studs 101. The network switch 112, data gateway 113, and PLC communication module 111 are arranged at intervals with the power module 130 through the connecting base plate 120, which can separate the heat sources, facilitate system heat dissipation, and improve safety.

[0038] The power module 130 is located at the bottom, which facilitates the placement of the power interface 143 at the bottom of the enclosure 100, separating it from other interfaces and ensuring power supply safety. The bottom of the enclosure 100 also features a surge protection interface 144, which is electrically connected to the metal enclosure 100. The surge protection interface 144 can be used to ground the enclosure 100, improving its safety.

[0039] The connecting base plate 120 is located in the middle, and the PLC bus interface 141 and network interface 142 are respectively positioned at the top and bottom, so that their distances from the connecting base plate 120 are similar, which facilitates uniform wiring and provides convenience for wiring layout.

[0040] The network switch 112, data gateway 113 and PLC communication module 111 are all located close to the connection base plate 120, which facilitates the wiring connection to the connection base plate 120, making it convenient to connect the wires nearby and easy to operate.

[0041] For easier connection, please refer to the following: Figure 2 In this embodiment, the connecting base plate 120 includes a first PLC adapter 121, a second PLC adapter 122, a first network adapter 123, a second network adapter 124, a first power adapter 125, and three second power adapters 126 to realize the switching of communication and power supply between the various parts.

[0042] The first PLC adapter 121 and the second PLC adapter 122 are connected via wiring on the connection base plate 120, and are respectively connected to the PLC bus interface 141 and the PLC communication module 111 via communication cables with plugs. Different adapter cables can be selected for flexible adaptation according to the specific connector type of the devices and instruments at both ends. For example, the first PLC adapter 121 and the second PLC adapter 122 are 16-channel RS485 connectors, which can simultaneously connect multiple monitoring instruments. Correspondingly, the number of channels of the PLC bus interface 141 is the same as the number of channels of the PLC adapter.

[0043] The first network adapter 123 and the second network adapter 124 are connected via wiring on the connection base plate 120, and are respectively connected to the network interface 142 and the network switch 112 via communication cables with plugs. The first network adapter 123 and the second network adapter 124 are, for example, terminal blocks including eight RJ45 Ethernet interfaces, which can simultaneously connect multiple monitoring instruments. Correspondingly, the number of interfaces of the network interface 142 is the same as the number of Ethernet interfaces of the network adapter.

[0044] The first PLC adapter 121, the second PLC adapter 122, the first network adapter 123, the second network adapter 124, the PLC bus interface 141, and the network interface 142 all adopt a terminal block structure integrating multiple interfaces. That is, the interface structure connecting the base plate 120 to the PLC bus interface and the network interface is a terminal block structure integrating multiple interfaces, which can improve the interface integration, facilitate the connection of multiple monitoring instruments, and the PLC interface and Ethernet interface are integrated separately, which can also be easily identified and used.

[0045] Among them, there are a large number of wires between the first network adapter 123 and the second network adapter 124. Double-sided circuit boards can be used for double-sided wiring, which can reduce communication interference between multiple Ethernet interfaces, ensure signal transmission effect, and ensure the effectiveness of the conversion.

[0046] The first power adapter 125 and three second power adapters 126 are connected by wiring on the connection base plate 120. The first power adapter 125 is plugged into the power module 130 for power supply. The three second power adapters 126 are plugged into the network switch 112, the data gateway 113 and the PLC communication module 111 for power supply respectively. This can improve the power supply quality and ensure the effectiveness of the power supply to the network switch 112, the data gateway 113 and the PLC communication module 111.

[0047] To facilitate wiring and reduce electromagnetic interference between various wirings on the connecting base plate 120, in this embodiment, the second PLC adapter 122, the second network adapter 124, and three second power adapters 126 are located in the top area of ​​the connecting base plate 120, and are arranged along the direction from the first end to the second end of the connecting base plate 120 (within the direction of...). Figure 2 For example, the interfaces are arranged sequentially from left to right, and can be conveniently connected to the network switch 112, data gateway 113 and PLC communication module 111. The first PLC adapter 121 and the second network adapter 123 are arranged on the first end side of the connecting base plate, and are arranged sequentially from top to bottom. The first power adapter 125 is located at the bottom of the connecting base plate 120, and is located directly below the second power adapter 126.

[0048] The wiring from the first PLC adapter 121 to the second PLC adapter 122 can be arranged in the upper left corner of the connecting base plate 120, the wiring from the first network adapter 123 to the second network adapter 124 can be arranged in the middle of the connecting base plate 120, and the wiring from the first power adapter 125 to the three second power adapters 126 can be arranged in the right side of the connecting base plate 120, so as to ensure the electromagnetic isolation effect of the three sets of wiring and ensure the connection reliability of the connecting base plate 120.

[0049] The control box for hot work monitoring provided by this utility model adopts a modular design, which can be adapted to the communication protocols of various monitoring devices, realize the collection needs of various monitoring data for different hot work operations, and can flexibly replace the data gateway used for data processing according to data processing needs, with low adjustment costs, which can effectively improve the applicability and usage cost of the control box.
