[0001] This utility model relates to the field of equipment monitoring technology, and in particular to a real-time monitoring system for the vibration isolation efficiency, attenuation changes and service life of a pipeline vibration damper. Background Technology
[0002] In precision industrial environments (such as semiconductor manufacturing plants), precision equipment has increasingly stringent requirements for micro-vibration. In practical applications, when the flow velocity of various gas pipelines is greater than 12.7 m / s, the support design must also consider the vibration reduction design of the pipeline. Seat-type and hanging-type vibration dampers are often used to isolate the vibration of the pipeline. However, due to the narrow environment of some factories, it is very difficult and risky to change the pipeline support and vibration damper. The pipeline vibration has a significant impact on the stability of the equipment. Traditional methods rely on one-time micro-vibration test to evaluate the performance of the vibration damper, but there are the following problems: (1) Cannot monitor in real time: After the vibration damper is installed, it is impossible to dynamically track whether the vibration isolation efficiency matches the design value; (2) Lack of long-term trend analysis: The curve of the vibration isolation efficiency decaying over time and the life prediction are missing; (3) Lagging maintenance: Relying on manual troubleshooting leads to production interruption and high costs.

[0041] In practical use, this embodiment also discloses a monitoring method based on the real-time monitoring system, including the following steps:
[0042] (1) Install composite sensors on the vibration damper and collect load data and displacement data synchronously through the composite sensors;
[0043] (2) Initialization of design parameters: Input the damper elastic coefficient s, rated load G1, and equipment speed n, and calculate the initial vibration isolation efficiency T. e初始 ;
[0044] (3) Calculate the real-time vibration isolation efficiency T using the collected load data. e荷载 and the initial vibration isolation efficiency parameter T e初始 contrast;

[0047] (6) Set the vibration isolation efficiency T e The threshold is used to predict the remaining lifetime L based on the fitted slope k of the decay curve, and maintenance is notified in advance.
[0048] Preferably, in step (1), the composite sensor integrates and packages a magnetostrictive displacement sensor and a strain gauge load sensor. The magnetostrictive displacement sensor outputs a displacement pulse signal to obtain the measured displacement value δ. 1位移 The strain gauge load sensor outputs a load electrical signal to obtain the real-time load value G. 1实测 .
[0049] Specifically, by integrating a magnetostrictive displacement sensor and a strain gauge load sensor into the same housing, dual-mode data synchronous acquisition is achieved. The magnetostrictive displacement sensor outputs a displacement pulse signal by detecting the absolute position of the magnetic ring, while the strain gauge load sensor outputs a load electrical signal through a resistance strain gauge.
[0050] Furthermore, since the magnetostrictive displacement sensor and strain gauge load sensor used are both existing components in the prior art, they will not be described in detail here.
[0051] Preferably, in step (2), the initial vibration isolation efficiency T is calculated. e初始 The steps are as follows: First, calculate the spring compression: δ1 = G1 / s, where δ1 is the spring compression, G1 is the rated load, and s is the damper's elastic coefficient; then calculate the natural frequency: Where f n Let 15.76 be the natural frequency, δ1 be a fixed coefficient, and δ1 be the spring compression. Then calculate the equipment frequency: f = n / 60, where f is the equipment frequency and n is the equipment rotational speed. Finally, calculate the vibration isolation efficiency: T e =1-|1 / (1-(f / f) n ) 2 )|, where T e The vibration isolation efficiency is given by f, where f is the equipment frequency. n It is the natural frequency.
[0052] Specifically, the initial vibration isolation efficiency parameter T is calculated based on the design specifications of the vibration damper, through design parameter initialization. e初始 The theoretical value of the vibration damper is obtained to verify whether the actual installation meets expectations, thereby troubleshooting installation or composite sensor problems. The theoretical value can be used as a reference for the initial calibration of composite sensors. For example, the deformation δ1 monitored by the magnetostrictive displacement sensor should be consistent with the theoretical spring compression δ1, while the reading of the strain gauge load cell should match G1 = operating weight * 1.2.
[0053] More specifically, the measured displacement δ using a magnetostrictive displacement sensor 1位移 Inverse load G1 = δ 1位移 ×s, and thus compare it with the theoretical load. If the deviation between the theoretical value and the actual value is large, the magnetostrictive displacement sensor calibration or fault alarm is triggered.
[0054] More specifically, the measured load G is obtained through a strain gauge load cell. 1实测 Calculate the downforce δ 1荷载 =G 1实测 / s, where δ 1荷载The measured spring compression is G1, the measured load, and s, the damper's elastic coefficient. This is compared with the theoretical compression. If the theoretical value deviates significantly from the actual value, the strain gauge load sensor calibration or fault alarm is triggered.
[0055] More specifically, the spring constant s may change after long-term use, which can be corrected in reverse using theoretical formulas:
[0056] Furthermore, the fixed coefficient of 15.76 is a standard conversion value in vibration engineering, widely used in the calculation of the natural frequency of spring vibration dampers. Refer to the Mechanical Vibration Handbook or ISO standards; it will not be elaborated on here.
[0057] Preferably, in step (3), the real-time vibration isolation efficiency T e荷载 The real-time load value G is calculated using a strain gauge load cell and obtained through the following steps. 1实测 First, calculate the spring compression: δ 1荷载 =G 1实测 / s, where δ 1荷载 To measure the spring compression, G 1荷载 The measured load is given, and s is the elastic coefficient of the vibration damper; then the natural frequency is calculated. Where f n荷载 The natural frequency is 15.76, which is a fixed coefficient, and δ is... 1荷载 The spring compression is given; then the equipment frequency is calculated: f = n / 60, where f is the equipment frequency and n is the equipment rotational speed; finally, the frequency ratio is calculated: Where u 荷载 The frequency ratio is f, where f is the device frequency. n荷载 Given the natural frequency; then calculate the vibrational conductivity: Where T r荷载 u is the vibrational conductivity. 荷载 The frequency ratio is used; finally, the vibration isolation efficiency is calculated: T e荷载 =1-T r荷载 T e荷载 To measure the vibration isolation efficiency, T r荷载 It represents the vibration conductivity.
[0058] Specifically, the load value reflects the actual force on the vibration damper. The deformation is derived through mechanical relationships, and then the vibration isolation efficiency is calculated. In this embodiment, the stress change is directly measured by a strain gauge load sensor, which has high sensitivity.
[0059] In actual use, calculations are performed using multiple sets of comparative data, as detailed in Table 1:
[0060] Table 1
[0061]
[0062] Preferably, in step (4), the real-time vibration isolation efficiency T e位移 The displacement value δ, obtained by acquiring the measured displacement value using a magnetostrictive displacement sensor, is calculated through the following steps. 1位移 First, calculate the natural frequency. Where f n位移 The natural frequency is 15.76, which is a fixed coefficient, and δ is... 1位移 The spring compression is given; then the equipment frequency is calculated: f = n / 60, where f is the equipment frequency and n is the equipment rotational speed; finally, the frequency ratio is calculated: Where u 位移 The frequency ratio is f, where f is the device frequency. n位移 Given the natural frequency; then calculate the vibrational conductivity: Where T r位移 u is the vibrational conductivity. 位移 The frequency ratio is used; finally, the vibration isolation efficiency is calculated: T e位移 =1-T r位移 T e位移 To measure the vibration isolation efficiency, T r位移 It represents the vibration conductivity.
[0063] Specifically, the displacement value directly reflects the degree of deformation of the vibration damper. The natural frequency is derived from the deformation, and then the vibration isolation efficiency is calculated. In this embodiment, a magnetostrictive displacement sensor is used for non-contact measurement, which is resistant to pollution and high pressure.
[0064] In actual use, calculations are performed using multiple sets of comparative data, as detailed in Table 2:
[0065] Table 2
[0066]
[0067] Preferably, the cross-validation in step (5) satisfies |T e位移 -T e荷载 When |≤ the set value, output the final vibration isolation efficiency. Where T e For the final output vibration isolation efficiency, T e位移 To measure the vibration isolation efficiency, T e荷载 To measure the vibration isolation efficiency; otherwise, trigger the composite sensor calibration process.
[0068] Specifically, in this embodiment, the setpoint is set to 5% during actual monitoring, that is, when |T e位移 -T e荷载 When |≤5%, the verification is successful, and the final vibration isolation efficiency T is output. e When |T e位移 -T e荷载If the percentage is greater than 5%, the verification fails, directly triggering composite sensor calibration or troubleshooting.
[0069] Preferably, the remaining lifetime prediction formula in step (6) is: Where L is the remaining lifetime, T e初始 T is the initial vibration isolation efficiency parameter in step (2). e阈值 Set the vibration isolation efficiency T in step (6) e The threshold value, k is the vibration isolation efficiency T e - The slope of the fitted decay curve at time t.
[0070] More preferably, the formula for calculating the slope of the attenuation curve is: k = ΔT e / Δt, where k is the fitted slope, and T e The output represents the final vibration isolation efficiency, and t represents time.
[0071] Preferably, the advance maintenance notification in step (6) includes setting up terminal push notifications, triggering audible and visual alarms, and initiating maintenance work orders for multi-level early warning.
[0072] Specifically, in this embodiment, T is actually used in practice. e阈值 The preset lifespan warning threshold is 80%. 阈值 =30 days, when T e When <85%, a notification is pushed to the terminal; when T e When the remaining lifespan is less than 80%, an audible and visual alarm is triggered. When the remaining lifespan L is less than or equal to 30 days, a maintenance work order is initiated, thereby achieving a closed loop of monitoring, analysis, and decision-making.
[0073] In summary, this invention achieves simultaneous acquisition of load and displacement data in two modes through the integrated design of a magnetostrictive displacement sensor and a strain gauge load sensor. Based on the independent and cross-validation of vibration isolation efficiency through dual paths, it generates a vibration isolation efficiency-time decay curve and fits the remaining lifespan, and provides multi-level early warning. This solves the problems of low data reliability and lack of lifespan prediction in traditional monitoring and can be widely applied to industrial vibration reduction systems.
[0074] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
