Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of operation evaluation of track-based amusement facilities, and in particular to an RFID-based amusement vehicle operation monitoring device. Background Technology

[0002] When designing track-based amusement rides, the fatigue life of major load-bearing components is calculated based on factors such as structural type, load calculation, and material selection to determine the design lifespan. During actual operation, if the operator overloads the equipment, causing the number of runs to exceed the design lifespan, fatigue failure may occur, threatening equipment safety. Furthermore, since track-based amusement rides always run along a fixed trajectory, their single operating cycle is theoretically fixed. However, malfunctions in the drive system, braking system, wheel system, etc., can lead to an extension or shortening of the operating cycle.

[0003] Therefore, monitoring the number of times and operating cycles of track-based amusement rides can assess the remaining service life and operational status of the equipment. Currently, safety status assessment still relies primarily on traditional methods such as periodic on-site inspections, which makes it difficult to obtain real-time data on the number of times and operating cycles. Consequently, it is difficult to comprehensively assess the safety status of the equipment in real time, which is a major problem contributing to the high rate of equipment accidents and failures. Utility Model Content

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides an RFID-based amusement vehicle operation monitoring device.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] An RFID-based amusement vehicle operation monitoring device includes an active monitoring module mounted on the ground and an auxiliary detection module mounted on the amusement vehicle. The auxiliary detection module includes interconnected tags and a first antenna. The active monitoring module includes a fixed base, a reader / writer mounted on the fixed base, and a second antenna. The second antenna and the first antenna establish wireless communication via electromagnetic coupling. The reader / writer is connected to a manager via a 4G gateway. The 4G gateway uses a Quectel EC600N-CN module; the tags are long-range anti-metal tags with an internal Alien H3 chip; both the first and second antennas are 9640 type antennas; the manager uses a UCM606H module with an internal STM32F303 core processing unit. In implementation, the reader reads or writes data from the tags, which is then processed by the core processing unit and transmitted wirelessly via 4G. All data is then uniformly connected to a big data cloud platform for management to monitor the operational status of the amusement vehicle. When an abnormality occurs, the client connected to the big data cloud platform promptly issues an alarm, thereby protecting the healthy and safe operation of the amusement vehicle and reducing equipment accidents.

[0007] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0008] This invention utilizes an active monitoring module and an auxiliary detection module working together to achieve real-time monitoring of the number of runs and the running cycle of track amusement vehicles. This provides data support for real-time evaluation of the operation of track amusement facilities, thereby reducing the occurrence of accidents involving track amusement vehicles and ensuring their healthy and safe operation. Attached Figure Description

[0010] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings. The illustrative embodiments and descriptions of this utility model are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.

[0011] When designing track-based amusement rides, the fatigue life of major load-bearing components is calculated based on factors such as structural type, load calculation, and material selection to determine the design lifespan. During actual operation, if the operator overloads the equipment, causing the number of runs to exceed the design lifespan, fatigue failure may occur, posing a threat to equipment safety.

[0012] The operating cycle of track-based amusement rides can be used to assess the overall operational status of the equipment. Since track-based amusement rides always run along a fixed trajectory, their single operating cycle is theoretically fixed. However, malfunctions in the drive system, braking system, wheel system, etc., can lead to longer or shorter operating cycles. For example, insufficient air pressure in the launch system may reduce the launch speed and prolong the operating cycle; excessive air pressure may lead to excessively high launch speed and shorten the operating cycle, in which case the load on the rider and vehicle will increase significantly; defects in the track may obstruct the vehicle and prolong the operating cycle; and a malfunctioning braking system may cause brake failure, further prolonging the operating cycle.

[0013] Therefore, the remaining service life of a track-based amusement ride can be assessed by monitoring the number of times it is operated, and the operational status of the ride can be assessed by monitoring its operating cycle.

[0014] Based on the above principles, this application provides an RFID-based amusement vehicle operation monitoring device. During the operation of track-based amusement rides, this device monitors the number of runs and the operating cycle of the ride to assess its remaining service life and operational status. This can reduce the occurrence of accidents involving track-based amusement rides and ensure their safe and healthy operation.

[0015] Example

[0016] An RFID-based amusement vehicle operation monitoring device, such as Figure 1 The system includes an active monitoring module mounted on the ground and an auxiliary monitoring module mounted on the track amusement vehicle. The auxiliary monitoring module includes interconnected tags and a first antenna. The active monitoring module includes a mounting base, a reader / writer mounted on the base, and a second antenna. The second antenna and the first antenna establish wireless communication via electromagnetic coupling. The reader / writer connects to a big data cloud platform through a 4G gateway. The 4G gateway uses a Quectel EC600N-CN module; the tags are long-range anti-metal tags with an internal Alien H3 chip; both the first and second antennas are 9640 type antennas; the manager uses a UCM606H module with an internal STM32F303 core processing unit.

[0017] During implementation: The reader reads or writes data from tags placed on each track amusement vehicle. After processing by the core processing unit, the data on the number of times the track amusement vehicles run and their running cycle are obtained. This data is then transmitted wirelessly via 4G to a unified big data cloud platform for management, enabling the monitoring of the track amusement vehicles' operating status. When an abnormality occurs in the operating status, the client connected to the big data cloud platform will promptly issue an alarm, thereby protecting the healthy and safe operation of the track amusement vehicles and reducing the occurrence of equipment accidents.

[0018] Specifically, the reader and second antenna are positioned near the start or end of the track. The tag and the first antenna move with the amusement park vehicle. Wireless communication is established between the tag and the reader via the first and second antennas to achieve energy and data transmission, thereby enabling monitoring of the number of rides and the cycle of each ride. Specifically, when the tag is in the near-field region of the second antenna, an alternating magnetic field is generated between the reader and the tag. The tag gains energy in the magnetic field, activating the circuit to achieve communication between the first and second antennas. The coil of the first antenna and the tag's internal circuitry form a resonant circuit. By changing the on / off state of the resonant circuit's resistance, the voltage change on the second antenna of the reader is altered, achieving amplitude modulation of the antenna voltage by the tag. When the tag receives information from the reader, it transmits a data stream, changing the parameters of the tag's resonant circuit, causing changes in the impedance and phase of the primary circuit of the magnetic field coupling. The reader detects the voltage of the transformed impedance to obtain the load modulation signal, and then extracts the data returned by the tag through demodulation and related signal processing, thus achieving data acquisition of the number of rides and the cycle of each ride.

[0019] Data collection

[0020] The UCM606H reader / writer is initialized to enter normal working state and starts collecting data in disk storage mode. When the reader / writer scans a tag, it obtains the tag's EPC number. If the EPC number is different from the one stored in the reader / writer, an information report is triggered. If no new tag is scanned for a long time, the stored data is cleared.

[0021] Signal processing

[0022] The reader processes the identified tag information with a delay to ensure accuracy. When no signal is identified or the signal set is missing inbound or outbound information, the signal set is discarded to prevent data corruption. Then, the core processing unit STM32F303 counts the number of runs and analyzes the cycle of each run.

[0023] 4G wireless communication

[0024] The core processing unit STM32F303 forwards the analysis results to the EC600S-CN module and establishes a wireless channel for data uplink and downlink with the big data cloud platform for management, so as to realize the monitoring of the operation status of the track amusement vehicle.

[0025] Of course, there may be other embodiments of this utility model. Without departing from the spirit and essence of this utility model, those skilled in the art can make various corresponding changes and modifications based on this utility model, but these corresponding changes and modifications should all fall within the protection scope of the appended claims of this utility model.
