2. Description of Related Art

In the monitoring system of a rotating device, it is common in the conventional technology to provide a corresponding monitoring device to monitor whether the rotating apparatus functions are abnormal or not. However, the conventional technology only enables analyzing and storing information obtained through monitoring then correspondingly sends a warning signal to the user. In other words, even if the rotating device exhibits a severely abnormal sign, an action to eliminate the anomaly can only be taken by the user after the user notices the anomaly and arrives the site. Thus, the best timing to eliminate the anomaly may consequently be missed, which causes abnormal productions of the production line, and thus damages the machines, or even results in environmental pollution.

DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

Reference will now be made in detail to the present preferred embodiments of the invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers are used in the drawings and the description to refer to the same or like parts.


Referring to FIG. 1, FIG. 1 is a schematic view illustrating a control apparatus for a rotating device according to an embodiment of the invention. A control apparatus 100 for a rotating device 10 includes information sensors 111 to 11N and a controller 120. The information sensors 111 to 11N are coupled to the rotating device 10, and are respectively configured to detect real-time temperature information, acoustic information and vibration information of the rotating device 10. The controller 120 is coupled to the information sensors 111 to 11N and receives the temperature information, the acoustic information, and the vibration information transported by the information sensors 111 to 11N at a plurality of fixed sampling time points within a time interval, thereby obtaining a plurality of sampled temperature values, a plurality of sampled noise values, and a plurality of sampled vibration values. Furthermore, the controller 120 performs computation on the sampled temperature values, the sampled noise values, and the sampled vibration values, so as to generate a plurality of status signals corresponding to the sampling time points accordingly.


The controller 120 generates a control signal based on the status signals. The control signal may be transported to the rotating device 10 to control an operation of the rotating device 10 accordingly.


In terms of operational details, the controller 120 may set a plurality of temperature threshold values and a plurality of vibration threshold values. The controller 120 compares the respective sampled temperature values and the temperature threshold values, so as to generate a plurality of temperature analysis results. The controller 120 further compares the respective sampled vibration values and the vibration threshold values, so as to generate a plurality of vibration analysis results. Moreover, the controller 120 may further perform a high frequency spectrum analysis on the received sampled noise values, so as to generate a plurality of spectrum analysis results. The controller 120 may further perform computation on the respective temperature analysis results, the respective vibration analysis results, and the respective spectrum analysis results at the same sampling time points to generate the respective status signals.


For example, the temperature threshold values may include a first temperature threshold value and a second temperature threshold value. The vibration threshold values may include a first vibration threshold value and a second vibration threshold value. In addition, the second temperature threshold value is greater than the first temperature threshold value, and the second vibration threshold value is greater than the first vibration threshold value. When the controller 120 determines that the sampled temperature value is smaller than the first temperature threshold value, the sampled vibration value is smaller than the first vibration threshold value, and the corresponding spectrum analysis result is normal, the controller 120 may generate a status signal corresponding to a normal status of the device.


When the controller 120 determines that the sampled temperature value is between the first temperature threshold value and the second temperature threshold value, but the sampled vibration value is smaller than the first vibration threshold value (regardless how the corresponding spectrum analysis result may be), the controller 120 may generate a status signal corresponding to an alarming status of the device. When the controller 120 determines that the sampled temperature value is between the first temperature threshold value and the second threshold value, and the sampled vibration value is also between the first vibration threshold value and the second vibration threshold value (regardless how the corresponding spectrum analysis result may be), the controller 120 may generate the status signal corresponding to the alarming status of the device. When the controller 120 determines that the sampled temperature value is smaller than the first temperature threshold value, and the sampled vibration value is between the first vibration threshold value and the second vibration threshold value (regardless how the corresponding spectrum analysis result may be), the controller 120 may similarly generate the status signal corresponding to the alarming status of the device. If the spectrum analysis carried out by the controller 120 indicates that the intensity of a high frequency noise exceeds a threshold value, the controller 120 may directly generate the status signal corresponding to the alarming status of the device.


Accordingly, it should be understood that the status signals in the embodiments of the invention may be further categorized into a plurality of levels. For example, when the sampled temperature value is between the first and second temperature threshold values, but the sampled vibration value is smaller than the first vibration threshold value and the spectrum analysis result is normal, the controller 120 may generate a status signal having a lower value (e.g., value A) but corresponding to the alarming status of the device. When the sampled temperature value is smaller than the first temperature threshold value, but the sampled vibration value is between the first and second vibration threshold values and the spectrum analysis result is normal, the controller 120 may generate the status signal having the value A. When the sampled temperature value is between the first and second temperature threshold values, the sampled vibration value is between the first and second vibration threshold values, but the spectrum analysis result is normal, the controller 120 may generate a status signal having a higher value (e.g., value B, wherein value B is greater than value A) and corresponding to the alarming status of the device. Moreover, when the sampled temperature value is between the first and second temperature threshold values, the sampled vibration value is between the first and second vibration threshold values, and the spectrum analysis result is not normal, the controller 120 may generate a status signal having the highest value (e.g., value C, wherein value C is greater than value B) and corresponding to the alarming status of the device.


When the sampled temperature value is greater than the second temperature threshold value, no matter how the relation between the sampled vibration value and the vibration threshold value is, the controller 120 may generate a status signal corresponding to a dangerous status of the device. In the same time, when the sampled vibration value is greater than the second vibration threshold value, no matter how the relation between the sampled temperature value and the temperature threshold value is, the controller 120 may generate the status signal corresponding to the dangerous status of the device.


Here, the controller 120 may set values corresponding to the status signal corresponding to the dangerous status of the device based on the sampled temperature values, the sampled vibration values, and the spectrum analysis results. Specifically, when only the sampled temperature value is greater than the second temperature threshold value, but the sampled vibration value is not greater than the second vibration threshold value and the spectrum analysis result is normal, the controller 120 may generate a status having a lower value (e.g., value D, wherein value D may be greater than value C) and corresponding to the dangerous status of the device. When only the sampled vibration value is greater than the second vibration threshold value, but the sampled temperature value is not greater than the second temperature threshold value and the spectrum analysis result is normal, the controller 120 may also generate the status signal having the value D. When the sampled vibration value is greater than the second vibration threshold value and the sampled temperature value is greater than the second temperature threshold value, but the spectrum analysis result is normal, the controller 120 may generate a status signal having a greater value (e.g., value E, wherein value E is greater than value D) and corresponding to the dangerous status of the device. When the sampled vibration value is greater than the second vibration threshold value, the sampled temperature value is greater than the second temperature threshold value, and the spectrum analysis result is not normal, the controller 120 may generate a status signal having the greatest value (e.g., value F, wherein value F is greater than value E) and corresponding to the dangerous status of the device.


The controller 120 may generate the control signal based on the plurality of status signals within the time interval. The control signal may be transported to the rotating device 10. In addition, the rotating device may perform a self-troubleshooting process based on the control signal. For example, the control signal may be a start pollution discharging signal. The rotating device 10 may perform a waste water (or waste gas) discharging process by turning on a pollution control valve based on the start pollution discharging signal. In addition, in a period of time, when the pollution control valve is open, the controller 120 may be notified of whether the rotating device 10 resumes a normal operation based on the status signal. If the rotating device 10 is unable to resume a normal operation, the controller 120 may turn off the rotating device 10 by using the control signal. In the meantime, to prevent the production line from being stopped, the controller 120 may start a backup device by using the control signal.


Referring to FIG. 2, FIG. 2 is a schematic view illustrating an example of a controller according to an embodiment of the invention. A controller 200 includes a signal front end processing apparatus 210, a core circuit 220, and a digital feedback controller 230. An output end of the core circuit 220 is coupled to the rotating device 10 under control, and may also be coupled to a backup device 11. The signal front end processing apparatus 210 may be coupled to the information sensors and receive the sensing signals (e.g., the temperature information, the acoustic information, and acceleration information, etc.), and perform a preliminary processing process, such as a signal amplifying process, a noise eliminating process, etc., on a signal, so as to facilitate a signal-to-noise ratio of the signal.


In addition, the core circuit 220 includes a signal sampling apparatus 221, a signal feature analyzer 222, and a network server 223. The signal sampling apparatus 221 may sample the temperature information, the acoustic information, and the vibration information transported by the information sensors to generate the sampled temperature values, the sampled noise values, and the sampled vibration values. The signal feature analyzer 222 may capture feature parameters in the temperature information, the acoustic information, and the vibration information to obtain valid information. The network server 223 enables the controller 200 to exchange information with a remote server through the Internet.


The digital feedback controller 230 is coupled between an input end and an output end of the core circuit 220 and makes the controller 200 a closed loop. With the closed-loop framework, the stability of the information processing process of the controller 200 may be facilitated.


In this embodiment, the rotating device 10 and the backup device 11 may be devices with the same structure. In addition, when the rotating device 10 is closed, the backup device 11 may be started based on a starting command of the controller 200.


Referring to FIG. 3, FIG. 3 is a controlling flowchart of a controller according to an embodiment of the invention. At Step S310 and S320, a sampled vibration value OA and a sampled temperature value T are respectively obtained. In addition, at Step S330, a sampled noise value is obtained. At Step S311, the sampled vibration value OA is compared with the second vibration threshold value (e.g., a value equal to 10). If the sampled vibration value OA is greater than 10, status information corresponding to the dangerous status of the device is generated (Step S323). Alternatively, if the sampled vibration value OA is not greater than 10, Step S312 is performed to compare the sampled vibration value OA and the first vibration threshold value (e.g., a value equal to 5). If the comparison result at Step S312 indicates that the sampled vibration value OA is greater than 5, Step S313 is performed to generate status information corresponding to the alarming status of the device. If the comparison result at Step S312 indicates that the sampled vibration value OA is not greater than 5, Step S314 is performed to generate status information corresponding to a normal status of the device.


Moreover, if the sampled temperature value T is greater than the second temperature threshold value (e.g., a value equal to 80) at Step S321, the status information corresponding to the dangerous status of the device is generated (Step S323). If it is determined at Step S321 that the sampled temperature value T is not greater than 80, Step S322 is performed to determine whether the sampled temperature value T is greater than the first temperature threshold value (e.g., a value equal to 60). If it is determined at Step S322 that the sampled temperature value T is greater than 60, Step S313 is performed to generate the status information corresponding to the alarming status of the device. Alternatively, if it is determined at Step S322 that the sampled temperature value T is not greater than 60, Step S314 is carried out to generate the status information corresponding to the normal status of the device.


Furthermore, a detection process on a high frequency spectrum of the sampled noise value is performed at Step S331. When an intensity of a sampled noise value at a specific frequency is too high, Step S323 is performed to generate the status information corresponding to the dangerous status of the device.


Based on the descriptions above, the status information generated at Step S314, S313, and S323 may be sorted at Step S340, and a final decision may be made to determine whether the rotating device is in the dangerous status or the alarming status. If the rotating device is in the alarming status, a danger alert may be sent at Step S352. If the rotating device is in the dangerous status, the rotating device is shut down for an emergency at Step S351.


Referring to FIG. 4, FIG. 4 is a schematic block view illustrating a control apparatus for a rotating device according to another embodiment of the invention. A control apparatus 400 further includes a remote system 420. The remote system 420 is coupled to the controller 410, and may receive the status signals generated by the controller 410. In addition, the remote system 420 may generate device status determination information based on a condition of the status signals change within the time interval, and send the device status determination information to the user. In other words, the user is enabled to be notified of an operating status of the rotating device in the protection line via the Internet regardless of the user's location.


Regarding operational details of the remote device 420, FIG. 5 is a working flowchart of a remote device according to an embodiment of the invention. At Step S510, the remote device 420 receives a plurality of the corresponding status signal values generated by the controller 410. In addition, at Step S20, the remote device 420 may calculate averages of the received values within a predetermined time interval (e.g., 3 minutes). Then, at Step S530, when it is determined that one of the averages reaches an upper limit of danger (Step S531), the device status determination information is set as not normal. Alternatively, if it is determined that the averages exceed an upper limit of alarming but does not reach the upper limit of danger for a plurality of consecutive times (e.g., three consecutive times) (Step S532), the device status determination information is set as active alarming. Another alternative is that, if it is determined that the averages exceed a value of a proportion (e.g., 90%) of the upper limit of alarming but does not reach the upper limit of alarming for a plurality of consecutive times (e.g., eight consecutive times) (Step S533), the device status determination information is set as general alarming.


At Step S540, whether rotation of the rotating device is not normal is determined based on a result of determination obtained at Step S530. If the rotation of the rotating device is not normal, Step S550 is performed to send a warning to the user. If the rotation of the rotating device is normal, the monitoring continues. Regarding details of Step S540, the remote device 420 may determine based on a condition of the device status change determination information. In addition, if the device status determination information indicates a gradual change from active alarming to general alarming, it is indicated that the operating status of the rotating device gets better. Thus, it is not necessary to send the warning to the user. Alternatively, if the device status determination information indicates a gradual change from general alarming to active alarming, or the device status determination information remains to be active alarming for a period of time, it is necessary to send the warning to the user. Of course, if the device status determination information is set as abnormal, it is necessary to send a warning to the user.


In another embodiment of the invention, the remote system 420 may also generate the device status determination information corresponding to the alarming status when the number of times that the status signal corresponds to the alarming status of the device is greater than N. The value of N is predetermined and is a positive integer greater than 1.


It should be noted that, to better control a yield capability of the rotating device, the remote system 420 may receive production scheduling information of the rotating device. Also, the rotating system 420 may adjust the scheduling information based on the generated device status determination information, so as to generate adjusted scheduling information. For example, when the remote system 420 sets that the rotating device is in the status of active alarming, the remote system 420 may reduce the number of working hours or an output of the rotating device, and transport the adjusted scheduling information to the user for the user's reference.


Moreover, the remote system 420 may further provide a plurality of parameters for the user to input and correct via the Internet. Examples of such parameters include the upper limit of danger, the upper limit of alarming, the value of the proportion in the flowchart, the number of times of exceeding the upper limit of alarming in Step S532, the number of times in Step S533, and the duration of the time interval in Step S520, as shown in FIG. 5. In this way, the user is able to make active adjustments or troubleshoot based on the status of the rotating device provided by the remote system 420.


In view of the foregoing, the change condition of various parameters of the rotating device within a time interval is detected in the embodiments of the invention. In addition, the decisions as to whether the rotating device or the backup device is turned on or off, or whether to perform a troubleshooting process are made based on the detected status signal, so as to offer a function of smart device.


It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made to the structure of the present invention without departing from the scope or spirit of the invention. In view of the foregoing, it is intended that the present invention covers modifications and variations of this invention provided they fall within the scope of the following claims and their equivalents.
