Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an electronic sequential fault finding system which continuously monitors a plurality of serially-connected sub-stations for faults, and indicates said faults and their location back to a controller station.
  • the electronic sequential fault finding system of the present invention may be applied to many industries, for instance, for monitoring railway wagons for faults in brakes and doors, for shipping containers to check on refrigeration and security, and for machinery in factory assembly lines to monitor breakdowns.
  • Other uses for the present invention include its use in hospitals for monitoring a plurality of beds simultaneously by one centralised nursing staff or, in vital areas such as intensive care, to monitor a number of vital functions.
  • the device of the present invention can also be used in the mining industry to monitor any required number of underground points for safety reasons.
  • One of these prior art systems is the multiplex system, which is used in industries such as security, safety and general machinery monitoring.
  • This system is only good if the monitored object is physically stationery in its place, therefore, when the objects to be monitored are parts of railway wagon such as doors or brakes, or containers on a cargo ship, the multiplex system is not suitable and direct connection to the required position is required, which in many cases involves hundreds of wires and a very complex wiring system.
  • Another prior art monitoring system is the system used typically in security system, which consists of a modem and microprocessor at both the operator end and the monitoring end of the link, thus making the monitoring system extremely costly.
  • the present invention seeks to overcome these problem providing a relatively inexpensive electronic sequential fault finding system which may be applied to monitor both stationary and mobile systems.
  • the present invention also seeks to provide a monitoring system, in which the monitoring sub-station positions may be placed as far as 1km apart from the controller station without having interference effects, and is capable of monitoring sequentially and separately at least one fault at each sub-station, and indicates the type of fault and its location back to the controller station.
  • the present invention in one embodiment seeks to provide a portable system which consumes a relatively small amount of power and preferably can run on a 12 volt power supply or battery. It also is capable of monitoring a plurality of sub-stations with minimal wire connections - the monitors being connected to the controller unit in series.
  • the present invention also seeks to provide a monitoring system which will give a visual or audible warning whenever a fault occurs and has a response time of 1/1000 second.
  • Fig. 1 is a generalised block diagram of the monitoring system
  • Fig. 2 is a diagram of an embodiment of a controller statitoring system.
  • Fig. 4 is a detailed block diagram of the sequential fault location system of the present invention.
  • Fig. 5 is a circuit diagram of one embodiment of a controller station of the monitoring system
  • Fig. 6 is a circuit diagram of one embodiment of a sensor station of the monitoring system
  • Fig. 7 is a detailed block diagram of a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
  • Fig. 8 is a detailed circuit diagram of the controller station of Fig 7;
  • Fig. 9 is a detailed circuit diagram of the sub-station of Fig 7;
  • Fig. 10 is a detailed circuit diagram of the serial interface of Fig 7.
  • the electronic sequential fault location system shown in Fig. 1 comprises a controller station 1, a plurality of sub-stations 2, a power supply unit 3 which supplies a regulated DC voltage to the controller station 1, a clock unit 4 which provides the system timing, a display * 5 which indicates the location of any faults, should they occur, and an alarm system 6 which visually or audibly alerts an operator should any erroneous situation occur.
  • the controller station 1 is used to simultaneously monitor a plurality of sub-stations 2, and to display the location of faults to an operator. Any suitable display means may be utilised to indicate the fault locations for example, a plurality of LED lights - one corresponding to each sub-station 2, or, if a large number of sub-stations 2 are to be monitored, the display would more preferably consist of one or more 7-segment LCD displays.
  • a suitable display unit, particularly adapted to the latter system, is shown in Fig 2.
  • the display unit 5 is preferably constructed of strong metal or plastics material, and is shown provided with two switches 7 and 8, three 7-segment LCD displays 11 and two indicator lights 9 and 10. Such a display unit is capable of displaying two faults in up to 999 sub-stations. Switch 7 is switched to display fault No. 1 and is indicated by activating indicator light 9, and similarly, by switching switch 8, fault No. 2 may be displayed on the display 11, indicated by activating indicator light 10.
  • the logic flow of the sequential fault locating system is shown in Fig. 3.
  • the logic flow is detailed for a plurality of sub-stations or slave units 2, each sub-station being checked for the presence of two fault operations.
  • the logic flow illustrates that after initial reset of the system, no change is noticed until a fault occurs in one of the sub-stations or slave units 2 when a fault is found to does occur in a sub-station 2, the controller station 1 initiates a search procedure to systematically examine each sub-station 2 until all faults are displayed.
  • Fig 4 is shown a detailed block diagram of an embodiment of the present invention, detailing the logical operation of the fault locations system.
  • the system comprises the controller station, generally designated by the numeral 13, and a plurality of sub-stations, designated 12.
  • the controller station is shown comprising of a number of smaller blocks, which will be herein described with reference to the system operation.
  • the power-on reset circuit 17 forces the reset lines 25 to a logic 'I' state, to reset each of the sub-stations 12, the counter latch display driver 14, the bit '1000' store 22, and to set the bit '000' store 23.
  • a logic '1 * state is then impressed on the data line 26, and the test line 27 has a logic * 0' state.
  • the counter (part of block 14) then starts counting, however no display of the count is given.
  • a pulse is continually generated by the controller station and moved through the sub-stations in succession. The control station carries this task out in about 1/1000 second for all sub-stations, and simultaneously, the controller station counts the number of sub-stations which are connected together in series.
  • the controller starts the process again.
  • the fault line 28 is pulled to logic 'O * state.
  • the 100m sec initialise timer 20 is then triggered, the reset (clear) line 25 is forced to a logic '1 * state, the reset functions are performed again and the bit '000' store 23 is set.
  • the sub-stations 12 then operate as a shift register, clocking a test enable bit along the clock line 110 starting from bit '000', through each sub-station until the fault is discovered, and the test line 27 goes to a logic '1 * state.
  • the clock line ringing compensator 21 triggers the 2-second timer 18 and the 1msec line ringing compensator 19.
  • the clock 16 is then stopped and the test enable bit remains at the faulty sub-station 12.
  • the count is displayed on the 7-segment display (part of block 14) for a period of 2 sec, after which time the test enable bit is clocked through the remaining sub-stations 12, operating as a shift register.
  • the display (in block 14) retains the location of the last fault until the next fault is found, at which time the process repeats itself.
  • test enable bit When the test enable bit reaches the last sub-station 12, it is returned to the control station 13 to initiate a reset load bit in the bit '000 * store 23, etc.
  • the process continually repeats itself. For example, if there are faults in sub-stations Nos. 2, 9 and 900, the display would repeat *000', '002', '009' '900' until these faults were removed or others added.
  • Each display is maintained for a minimum of . 2 sec to allow time to read the display. If it takes longer to • find' the next fault, then the display shows the previous sub-station number until the next fault is found.
  • the timing may be adjusted for specific requirements. If, for instance, line ringing is a problem, then the master clock can be slowed down and the line ringing compensator times can be increased. The converse may also be desirable when using short lengths of cable.
  • a 'find size' button may also be optionally provided on the controller such as to display the number of sub-stations 12 connected to the control system 13. This is useful for situations where self-sizing of road trains, shipping containers, etc., is designed. For permanent installations of fixed length systems, it is not necessary and should be deleted both for cost and power consumption minimisation. To provide this facility, a link- should be fitted on the last sub-station unit to return the 'end of scan' bit to the controller station. Any number of faults may be detected in any one sub-station unit, by providing the appropriate number of test lines. In the case as hereinbelow described, two faults may be detected, the provided test lines being test 1, fault 1, test 2 and fault 2. Thus, 2 extra lines are required to extend the system to detect 1 extra fault in each of the sub-stations.
  • each of the said sub-stations has a 12-wire plug so as to interconnect either with said controller station directly or in parallel with a similar sub-station.
  • Said sub-stations have the capacity to independently detect two faults, in the format connected in the attached figures in the form of an open or closed circuit switching mechanism.
  • each of these said two fault sensors can be multiplied so as the system is capable of measuring many points of the same type of fault in any machinery, railway wagon, or the like.
  • Each independent fault locator in each sub-station may for example, be in the form of two wires, such as a switch.
