Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for connecting igniters to an ignition system according to the preamble of the first claim.
- An ignition system consists of a large number of detonators, which are connected to a bus line, which in turn starts from a so-called logger.
- a logger is a data reading and storage device in which the relevant data of a detonator can be stored.
- An ignition system can consist of several ignition circuits, that is, there are several loggers, to each of which a bus line is connected with a plurality of detonators. The loggers in turn are connected to an ignition device or a tripping device, a so-called blaster, from which the detonators can be ignited in a predetermined time sequence on the basis of an ignition command.
- detonators which have an identification code.
- This can for example consist of an identification number or a barcode, which are externally applied to the igniter and can be read.
- the identification code can also be stored in the electronics of the detonator. When this identification code is stored in the logger, the detonator can be addressed with the logger's programming and storage electronics if a function, such as a delay time, is to be stored in the detonators.
- the detonators After laying the bus line from the logger, the detonators are connected with their ignition cable to the bus line of their assigned logger, be logged. If several loggers are distributed with corresponding bus lines in the area, the logging on of the detonators to the bus lines can take place simultaneously.
- the subsequent person the logger
- the logger can also tell the logger the geographic coordinates of the borehole into which the igniter is lowered.
- the borehole coordinates as well as the identification code of the detonator can be combined to form a so-called address under which the respective detonator can be individually addressed by the logger.
- the determination of the coordinates of the borehole can be done, for example, by means of GPS (Global Positioning System) or by means of the DGPS (Differential Global Positioning System).
- the logging of the detonator to the bus line is carried out in particular in the opencast mining under conditions that initially not visible to damage, especially on the isolation of the detonator and the ignition cables can lead. Such damage can lead to shunts, in particular to shunt igniter to igniter. If these shunts occur between detonators which are simultaneously connected to different bus lines, then errors in the data transmission can occur, for example due to loss or forgery of the signals to be transmitted or due to intrusion of signals from a foreign detonator.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a method with which the described disturbances and errors can be avoided.
- Each of the loggers carries a transmitting and receiving device, a log data transmitter, which has its own identification code and the Transmission of the identification codes and the data of the geographical coordinates of the detonator to its associated logger is used.
- These transceivers are designed for bidirectional contact both with their associated logger and the Anlog Manager.
- the Anlog Manager is in bidirectional contact with all loggers as well as with all log data transmitters that carry the loggers. The contact can be made via lines or via radio.
- an igniter is to be logged on to the bus line of a logger by a logger.
- the logger who wants to connect the detonator logs in with his log data transmitter at the Anlog Manager, who recognizes him by the identification code and thus can assign the associated logger.
- the logging can be done, for example, that a signal with the identification code is transmitted to the Anlog Manager by pressing a button, for example by radio.
- the Anlog Manager acknowledges the logon with a signal to the logger. If no other igniter is connected at the moment, an enable signal for logging on the igniter is transmitted. Otherwise, a message appears that the data transmission is not possible. As a result, it is advantageously avoided that a distortion of the signals to be transmitted occurs due to the above-described possibilities of error.
- the signals can be communicated visually, acoustically or mechanically, for example by vibrations, to the logger by the log data transmitter.
- the logger associated with the logger is switched to reception by the log-on manager, so that the corresponding data can be read in from the igniter to be connected.
- This logger can only be addressed by the Anlog Manager if it knows its identification code.
- the Anlog Manager can contact directly to the responsible logger so that it can receive the signals of the logger associated with the log data transmitter or the data of a logging on to the bus itself igniting detonator.
- the logger If the logger has now received confirmation from the log-on manager that the detonator can be connected to the bus line, he performs this connection and acknowledges the log-on by transmitting the identification code and possibly the position of the connected detonator, if this has been determined For example, by using the GPS or the DGPS is possible.
- the logger If the logger now recognizes that the transmitted data is incomplete or faulty due to the possible errors described above, it can immediately report the error and, for example, make it visible to the logger on a display. As a result, faulty igniter or a faulty connection can be detected immediately.
- two or more loggers may log in to the Anlog Manager at the same time.
- the Anlog Manager only allows logging on during a time, so that only one logger at a time is offered the opportunity to connect a detonator and in each case only the data of a detonator is transmitted to the associated logger.
- the other loggers are informed by a signal that they are, so to speak, in a waiting position and the release only takes place when the current log-on process of a detonator is completed.
- a waiting loop can be provided in the Anlog Manager, in which the respective loggers are arranged in chronological order according to the order of the incoming message and, if appropriate, the waiting position is displayed to them.
- the logger acknowledges this to the log data transmitter with an acknowledgment signal.
- the logger can then inform the log-in manager of the successful log-on of the detonator with a signal.
- the acknowledgment signal of the logger can also go directly to the log-on manager and serve on the log data transmitter only as an indicator for a successful log-on.
- the Anlog Manager may enable the next sequencer on hold to log on to the next detonator.
- the logger just watching the connection has successfully performed a detonator, knows that he can register the connection of the following detonator.
- Anlog management can also be performed if the detonator automatically logs on to the logger when it is connected to the bus.
- the logger must first alert the log-in manager that he intends to log in an igniter.
- the Anlog Manager will then check to see if a detonator is already logging in at the same time. If this is the case, the logger, to whose bus line a detonator is to be logged on, is blocked for receiving the data until the log-on procedure of a preceding detonator on another logger has been completed.
- the logger After confirming receipt of the signals of the logged-on detonator by the acknowledgment signal of the logger, either the logger can notify the log-in manager of the successful log-on or the signal goes directly to the log-on manager.
- the Anlog Manager then sends an enable signal to the logger, to whose bus the detonator is to be logged on. If the detonator is then connected to the bus line, it automatically sends its identification code to its logger, which acknowledges the connection when the signals are received correctly and stores the identification code, optionally with the geographical coordinates of the detonator, as the address.
- the inventive method gives the highest possible security in the simultaneous logging of detonators in an ignition system with multiple ignition circuits and thus multiple loggers.
- the Anlog Manager is also suitable for coordinating the transmission of the delay times from the blaster via the loggers to the individual detonators. Since this data transmission can also be hindered and disturbed by the above-described possibilities of damage to the detonators or ignition lines, it is advantageous if each detonator is addressed individually. In this case, the logger and the blaster must have an address so that they can be addressed by the log-on manager. The Anlog Manager then allows the data transfer from the Blaster only to the logger and from there only to the detonators, which should also be addressed and locks the other loggers.
- the blaster can signal the end of the data transfer by means of a signal to the Anlog Manager.
- the respective logger can report to the Anlog Manager that the reception of the delay time data by the detonators has taken place and the programming of the individual detonators has been completed. Based on these signals, the Anlog Manager can switch off the previous logger and switch the subsequent logger to receive.
- the inventive method ensures that in the signal transmission after connecting the detonator and the subsequent programming of the delay times, the signal transmission of a detonator or a logger is not disturbed by the signal transmission of another detonator or logger and that errors in the transmission are detected immediately and the respective Sender or receiver, the detonator or the logger can be assigned.
- the present illustration shows an ignition system 1 with four separate ignition circuits 2 to 5.
- Each of the ignition circuits 2 to 5 consists of a bus line 6 to 9, each emanating from a logger 10 to 13 and at the igniter 14 with its ignition line 15 in the Connection point 16 connected, that is logged on.
- all four ignition circuits 2 to 5 is a person to Anlogger 17 to 20, busy to igniter to the respective bus lines 6 to 9.
- the Anlogger 17 is just about to log an igniter 14 with its ignition line 15 in a connection point 16 to the bus line 6 of the ignition circuit 2.
- the logger 20 wants to proceed.
- Each of the loggers 17 to 20 has a transmitting and receiving device, a log data transmitter 21 having its own identification code. These log data transmitters 21 are suitable for bidirectional contact both with the respective loggers 10 to 13 and with the log-on manager 22.
- a simultaneous connection of detonators 14 by the logger 17 and the Anlogger 20 would come with a shunt of the igniter to a threat to data transmission.
- both the logger 17 and the logger 20 have logged in via their log data transmitters 21 to the log-on manager 22, stating the respective identification code.
- the log-on manager 22 may assign the loggers to the respective logger based on the identification codes of the respective log data transmitters 21.
- the logger 17 is assigned to the logger 10 and the logger 20 to the logger 13.
- the Anlogger 17 as symbolized by the radio contact 23, before the Anlogger 20 at Anlog Manager 22 reported, the radio contact with the dashed line 24 is symbolized, so that the Anlog Manager 22 via the indicated radio contact 25 the Logger 10 turns on and the logger 17 allows the connection of a fuze 14 before the logger 20.
- the permission to log the igniter 14 in the connection point 16 this transmits, in the present case by means of the log data transmitter 21, also by radio, the identification code of the igniter 14 and optionally the position of the borehole to the logger 10. This data transmission is symbolized by the radio contact 26.
- the data of the detonator is transmitted to the logger 10, this reports the proper receipt of the data on the indicated radio link 26 to the log data transmitter 21 of the Anloggers 17. This then acknowledges the successfully completed Anloggvorgang means of a signal via the radio link 23 to the Anlog Manager 22. Thereupon, via the indicated radio contact 24, the message to the log data transmitter 21 of the logger 20 with the release notification for logging the ready held detonator 14 to the bus line 9. If the igniter has been successfully connected to the bus line 9 by the logger 20, then He acknowledges this connection by means of a radio signal to the Anlog Manager 22, so that this can pass the release for logging a detonator to another Anlogger.
- the detonators are programmed with regard to their time delay from the ignitor or the tripping device, the so-called blaster 27.
- This can be connected via lines 28 to 31 to the respective ones Loggers 10 to 13 connected. But it may also, as not shown here, a radio link between the blaster 27 and the respective loggers exist. Furthermore, there is a connection via a line 32 or via an indicated radio link 33 between the blaster 27 and the log-on manager 22.
- the log-on manager 22 is equipped to separately switch the loggers 10 to 13 on and off when from the blaster 27 in the respective ignition circuits 2 to 5, for example, the delay times in the detonators 14 are to be stored.
- first of the blaster 27 is a message to the log-on manager 22, which is the logger 10 to 13 of the ignition circuits 2 to 5 to be addressed.
- the log-on manager 22 has entered via the radio contact 34 indicated here with the logger 10 in connection and has turned it on to receive the data from the blaster 27, while the other wireless contacts 35, the subsequent loggers 11 to 13 connected will not be able to receive data specific to logger 10 only.
- the detonators can be ignited by the blaster 27 via the respective loggers.
Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Anschluss von Zündern an ein Zündsystem entsprechend dem Oberbegriff des ersten Anspruchs.The invention relates to a method for connecting igniters to an ignition system according to the preamble of the first claim.
Ein Zündsystem besteht aus einer Vielzahl von Zündern, die an einer Busleitung angeschlossen sind, die wiederum von einem sogenannten Logger ausgeht. Ein Logger ist ein Datenlese- und Speichergerät, in dem die relevanten Daten eines Zünders gespeichert werden können. Ein Zündsystem kann aus mehreren Zündkreisen bestehen, das heißt, dass mehrere Logger vorhanden sind, an die jeweils eine Busleitung mit einer Vielzahl von Zündern angeschlossen ist. Die Logger wiederum sind an ein Zündgerät oder eine Auslöseeinrichtung, einen sogenannten Blaster angeschlossen, von dem aus die Zünder aufgrund eines Zündbefehls in einer vorgegebenen zeitlichen Reihenfolge gezündet werden können. Die Busleitungen, die von den Loggern ausgehen, können neben der Signalübertragung auch zur Energieversorgung der Zünder, insbesondere zur Aufladung der Zündkondensatoren, dienen, Zündsysteme dieser Art werden beispielsweise beim übertägigen Abbau von Bodenschätzen, von Erzen oder Kohle, oder in der Steine- und Erdenindustrie eingesetzt.An ignition system consists of a large number of detonators, which are connected to a bus line, which in turn starts from a so-called logger. A logger is a data reading and storage device in which the relevant data of a detonator can be stored. An ignition system can consist of several ignition circuits, that is, there are several loggers, to each of which a bus line is connected with a plurality of detonators. The loggers in turn are connected to an ignition device or a tripping device, a so-called blaster, from which the detonators can be ignited in a predetermined time sequence on the basis of an ignition command. The bus lines emanating from the loggers, in addition to the signal transmission to the power supply of detonators, in particular for charging the ignition capacitors, serve, ignition systems of this kind are, for example, the surface mining of mineral resources, ores or coal, or in the stone and earth industry used.
Um die Zünder hinsichtlich ihrer Verzögerungszeit individuell ansprechen zu können, gibt es Zünder, die einen ldentifizierungs-Code aufweisen. Dieser kann beispielsweise aus einer Identifikationsnummer oder einem Barcode bestehen, die äußerlich auf dem Zünder aufgebracht sind und abgelesen werden können. Der Identifizierungs-Code kann auch in der Elektronik des Zünders abgespeichert sein. Wenn dieser Identifizierungscode in dem Logger gespeichert wird, kann der Zünder mit der Programmier- und Speicherelektronik des Loggers angesprochen werden, wenn eine Funktion, beispielsweise eine Verzögerungszeit, in dem Zündern gespeichert werden soll.In order to be able to address the detonators individually with regard to their delay time, there are detonators which have an identification code. This can for example consist of an identification number or a barcode, which are externally applied to the igniter and can be read. The identification code can also be stored in the electronics of the detonator. When this identification code is stored in the logger, the detonator can be addressed with the logger's programming and storage electronics if a function, such as a delay time, is to be stored in the detonators.
Nach Verlegen der Busleitung vom Logger aus, werden die Zündern mit ihrer Zündleitung an die Busleitung des ihnen zugeordneten Loggers angeschlossen, angeloggt. Sind mehrere Logger mit entsprechenden Busleitungen im Gelände verteilt, kann das Anloggen der Zünder an die Busleitungen gleichzeitig erfolgen. Beim Anschließen eines Zünders an die Busleitung teilt die anschließende Person, der Anlogger, den Identifizierungs-Code des jeweiligen Zünders an den dem Zünder zugeordneten Logger mit, beispielsweise per Funk. Gleichzeitig kann der Anlogger dem Logger zusätzlich die geographischen Koordinaten des Bohrlochs mitteilen, in das der Zünder abgelassen wird. Die Bohrlochkoordinaten sowie der Identifizierungs-Code des Zünders können zu einer sogenannten Adresse zusammengefasst werden, unter der vom Logger aus der jeweilige Zünder individuell angesprochen werden kann. Die Bestimmung der Koordinaten des Bohrlochs kann beispielsweise mittels GPS (Global Positioning System) oder mittels des DGPS (Differential Global Positioning System) erfolgen.After laying the bus line from the logger, the detonators are connected with their ignition cable to the bus line of their assigned logger, be logged. If several loggers are distributed with corresponding bus lines in the area, the logging on of the detonators to the bus lines can take place simultaneously. When connecting a detonator to the bus line, the subsequent person, the logger, shares the identification code of the respective detonator with the logger associated with the detonator, for example by radio. At the same time, the logger can also tell the logger the geographic coordinates of the borehole into which the igniter is lowered. The borehole coordinates as well as the identification code of the detonator can be combined to form a so-called address under which the respective detonator can be individually addressed by the logger. The determination of the coordinates of the borehole can be done, for example, by means of GPS (Global Positioning System) or by means of the DGPS (Differential Global Positioning System).
Das Anloggen der Zünder an die Busleitung erfolgt insbesondere in den Tagebaubetrieben unter Bedingungen, die zunächst nicht sichtbar zu Schäden, insbesondere an der Isolierung der Zünder sowie der Zündleitungen, führen können. Solche Schäden können zu Nebenschlüssen führen, insbesondere zum Nebenschluss von Zünder zu Zünder. Treten diese Nebenschlüsse zwischen Zündern auf, die gleichzeitig an unterschiedlichen Busleitungen angeschlossen werden, so kann es zu Fehlern in der Datenübertragung kommen, beispielsweise durch Verlust oder Fälschung der zu übertragenden Signale oder durch Eindringen von Signalen eines fremden Zünders.The logging of the detonator to the bus line is carried out in particular in the opencast mining under conditions that initially not visible to damage, especially on the isolation of the detonator and the ignition cables can lead. Such damage can lead to shunts, in particular to shunt igniter to igniter. If these shunts occur between detonators which are simultaneously connected to different bus lines, then errors in the data transmission can occur, for example due to loss or forgery of the signals to be transmitted or due to intrusion of signals from a foreign detonator.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, ein Verfahren vorzustellen, mit dem die beschriebenen Störungen und Fehler vermieden werden können.The object of the present invention is to provide a method with which the described disturbances and errors can be avoided.
Die Lösung der Aufgabe erfolgt mit Hilfe der kennzeichnenden Merkmale des ersten Anspruchs. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung werden in den Unteransprüchen beansprucht.The object is achieved by means of the characterizing features of the first claim. Advantageous embodiments of the invention are claimed in the subclaims.
Erfindungsgemäß wird vorgeschlagen, dass ein sogenannter Anlog-Manager installiert wird. Jeder der Anlogger trägt ein Sende- und Empfangsgerät, einen Logdatenübermittler, das einen eigenen Identifizierungs-Code aufweist und der Übermittlung der Identifizierungs-Codes und der Daten der geografischen Koordinaten der Zünder an den ihm zugeordneten Logger dient. Diese Sende- und Empfangsgeräte sind zum bidirektionalen Kontakt sowohl mit dem ihnen jeweils zugeordneten Logger und dem Anlog-Manager ausgelegt. Der Anlog-Manager steht im bidirektionalen Kontakt zu allen Loggern sowie zu allen Logdatenübermittlern, die die Anlogger tragen. Der Kontakt kann über Leitungen oder über Funk erfolgen.According to the invention it is proposed that a so-called Anlog-Manager is installed. Each of the loggers carries a transmitting and receiving device, a log data transmitter, which has its own identification code and the Transmission of the identification codes and the data of the geographical coordinates of the detonator to its associated logger is used. These transceivers are designed for bidirectional contact both with their associated logger and the Anlog Manager. The Anlog Manager is in bidirectional contact with all loggers as well as with all log data transmitters that carry the loggers. The contact can be made via lines or via radio.
Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren zum Anloggen von Zündern an den Zündkreis eines Zündsystems erfolgt wie hier beschrieben: Ein Zünder soll von einem Anlogger an die Busleitung eines Loggers angeloggt werden. Dazu meldet sich der Anlogger, der den Zünder anschließen will, mit seinem Logdatenübermittler bei dem Anlog-Manager, der ihn an dem Identifizierungs-Code erkennt und somit den zugehörigen Logger zuordnen kann. Das Anmelden kann beispielsweise dadurch erfolgen, dass durch einen Tastendruck ein Signal mit dem Identfizierungs-Code an den Anlog-Manager übermittelt wird, beispielsweise mittels Funk. Der Anlog-Manager quittiert die Anmeldung mit einem Signal an den Logdatenübermittler. Wird im Augenblick kein anderer Zünder angeschlossen, wird ein Freigabesignal zum Anloggen des Zünders übermittelt. Ansonsten erfolgt eine Meldung, dass die Datenübermittlung nicht möglich ist. Dadurch wird vorteilhaft vermieden, dass durch die oben aufgezeigten Fehlermöglichkeiten eine Verfälschung der zu übermittelnden Signale auftritt.The method according to the invention for logging detonators to the ignition circuit of an ignition system is carried out as described here: an igniter is to be logged on to the bus line of a logger by a logger. To do so, the logger who wants to connect the detonator logs in with his log data transmitter at the Anlog Manager, who recognizes him by the identification code and thus can assign the associated logger. The logging can be done, for example, that a signal with the identification code is transmitted to the Anlog Manager by pressing a button, for example by radio. The Anlog Manager acknowledges the logon with a signal to the logger. If no other igniter is connected at the moment, an enable signal for logging on the igniter is transmitted. Otherwise, a message appears that the data transmission is not possible. As a result, it is advantageously avoided that a distortion of the signals to be transmitted occurs due to the above-described possibilities of error.
Die Signale können optisch, akustisch oder mechanisch, beispielsweise durch Schwingungen, dem Anlogger durch den Logdatenübermittler mitgeteilt werden. Gleichzeitig wird von dem Anlog-Manager der dem Anlogger zugeordnete Logger auf Empfang geschaltet, damit von dem anzuschließenden Zünder die entsprechenden Daten eingelesen werden können. Dieses Ansprechen des Loggers durch den Anlog-Manager kann nur erfolgen, wenn er dessen Identifizierungs-Code kennt. Somit ist es möglich, das sich beim Melden eines Anloggers der Anlog-Manager direkt an den zuständigen Logger wenden kann, damit dieser die Signale des dem Logger zugeordneten Logdatenübermittlers beziehungsweise die Daten eines beim Anloggen an die Busleitung sich selbst meldenden Zünders empfangen kann.The signals can be communicated visually, acoustically or mechanically, for example by vibrations, to the logger by the log data transmitter. At the same time, the logger associated with the logger is switched to reception by the log-on manager, so that the corresponding data can be read in from the igniter to be connected. This logger can only be addressed by the Anlog Manager if it knows its identification code. Thus, it is possible that when logging a Anloggers the Anlog Manager can contact directly to the responsible logger so that it can receive the signals of the logger associated with the log data transmitter or the data of a logging on to the bus itself igniting detonator.
Hat nun der Anlogger von dem Anlog-Manager die Bestätigung erhalten, dass der Zünder an die Busleitung angeschlossen werden kann, führt er diesen Anschluss durch und quittiert das Anloggen durch die Übertragung des Identifizierungs-Codes und eventuell der Position des angeschlossenen Zünders, wenn deren Ermittlung beispielsweise durch den Einsatz des GPS oder die DGPS möglich ist.If the logger has now received confirmation from the log-on manager that the detonator can be connected to the bus line, he performs this connection and acknowledges the log-on by transmitting the identification code and possibly the position of the connected detonator, if this has been determined For example, by using the GPS or the DGPS is possible.
Erkennt nun der Logger aufgrund der oben dargelegten Fehlermöglichkeiten, dass die übermittelten Daten unvollständig oder fehlerhaft sind, so kann er den Fehler sofort melden und für den Anlogger beispielsweise sichtbar auf einem Display mitteilen. Dadurch können fehlerhafte Zünder oder ein fehlerhafter Anschluss sofort erkannt werden.If the logger now recognizes that the transmitted data is incomplete or faulty due to the possible errors described above, it can immediately report the error and, for example, make it visible to the logger on a display. As a result, faulty igniter or a faulty connection can be detected immediately.
Durch das Anschließen von Zündern in mehreren Zündkreisen an mehreren Busleitungen kann es vorkommen, dass sich zwei oder mehr Anlogger gleichzeitig beim Anlog-Manager melden. Der Anlog-Manager erlaubt aber nur ein Anloggen während einer Zeit, so dass jeweils nur einem Anlogger die Möglichkeit geboten wird, einen Zünder anzuschließen und jeweils nur die Daten eines Zünders an den ihm zugeordneten Logger übertragen werden. Den übrigen Anloggern wird durch ein Signal mitgeteilt, dass sie sich sozusagen in einer Wartestellung befinden und die Freigabe erst erfolgt, wenn der gerade ablaufende Anloggvorgang eines Zünders abgeschlossen ist. Dazu kann in dem Anlog-Manager eine Warteschleife vorgesehen sein, in der nach der Reihenfolge der eingehenden Meldung die jeweiligen Anlogger in zeitlicher Reihenfolge eingeordnet werden und ihnen gegebenenfalls die Warteposition angezeigt wird.By connecting igniters in multiple firing circuits on multiple bus lines, two or more loggers may log in to the Anlog Manager at the same time. However, the Anlog Manager only allows logging on during a time, so that only one logger at a time is offered the opportunity to connect a detonator and in each case only the data of a detonator is transmitted to the associated logger. The other loggers are informed by a signal that they are, so to speak, in a waiting position and the release only takes place when the current log-on process of a detonator is completed. For this purpose, a waiting loop can be provided in the Anlog Manager, in which the respective loggers are arranged in chronological order according to the order of the incoming message and, if appropriate, the waiting position is displayed to them.
Ist durch einen Anlogger ein Zünder erfolgreich an die Busleitung angeloggt worden, so quittiert der Logger dieses an den Logdatenübermittler mit einem Quittiersignal. Darauf kann der Anlogger dem Anlog-Manager das erfolgreiche Anloggen des Zünders durch ein Signal zur Kenntnis geben. Das Quittiersignal des Loggers kann allerdings auch an den Anlog-Manager direkt gehen und auf dem Logdatenübermittler nur als Anzeige für ein erfolgreiches Anloggen dienen. Danach kann der Anlog-Manager dem in der Warteschleife befindlichen nachfolgenden Anlogger das Anloggen des nächsten Zünders freigeben. Der Anlogger, der gerade den Anschluss eines Zünders erfolgreich durchgeführt hat, weiß darauf, dass er den Anschluß des nachfolgenden Zünders anmelden kann.If an igniter has been successfully logged on to the bus line by a logger, the logger acknowledges this to the log data transmitter with an acknowledgment signal. The logger can then inform the log-in manager of the successful log-on of the detonator with a signal. However, the acknowledgment signal of the logger can also go directly to the log-on manager and serve on the log data transmitter only as an indicator for a successful log-on. Thereafter, the Anlog Manager may enable the next sequencer on hold to log on to the next detonator. The logger just watching the connection has successfully performed a detonator, knows that he can register the connection of the following detonator.
Das Anlog-Management kann auch dann durchgeführt werden, wenn der Zünder sich beim Anschließen an die Busleitung selbsttätig beim Logger meldet. In diesem Fall muss der Anlogger durch das von ihm abgegebene Signal zunächst den Anlog-Manager darauf aufmerksam machen, dass er beabsichtigt, einen Zünder anzuloggen. Daraufhin prüft der Anlog-Manager, ob in derselben Zeit bereits der Anloggvorgang eines Zünder läuft. Ist dies der Fall, wird der Logger, an dessen Busleitung ein Zünder angeloggt werden soll, so lange für den Empfang der Daten gesperrt, bis dass der Anloggvorgang eines vorhergehenden Zünders an einem anderen Logger abgeschlossen ist. Nach Bestätigung des Empfangs der Signale des angeloggten Zünders durch das Quittiersignal des Loggers kann entweder der Anlogger dem Anlog-Manager das erfolgreiche Anloggen mitteilen oder das Signal geht direkt an den Anlog-Manager. Der Anlog-Manager schickt darauf ein Freigabe-Signal an den Logger, an dessen Busleitung der Zünder angeloggt werden soll. Wird dann der Zünder an die Busleitung angeschlossen, sendet er automatisch seinen ldentifizierungs-Code an seinen Logger, der bei einem ordnungsgemäßen Empfang der Signale den Anschluß quittiert und den Identifizierungs-Code, gegebenenfalls mit den geografischen Koordinaten des Zünders, als Adresse speichert.Anlog management can also be performed if the detonator automatically logs on to the logger when it is connected to the bus. In this case, the logger must first alert the log-in manager that he intends to log in an igniter. The Anlog Manager will then check to see if a detonator is already logging in at the same time. If this is the case, the logger, to whose bus line a detonator is to be logged on, is blocked for receiving the data until the log-on procedure of a preceding detonator on another logger has been completed. After confirming receipt of the signals of the logged-on detonator by the acknowledgment signal of the logger, either the logger can notify the log-in manager of the successful log-on or the signal goes directly to the log-on manager. The Anlog Manager then sends an enable signal to the logger, to whose bus the detonator is to be logged on. If the detonator is then connected to the bus line, it automatically sends its identification code to its logger, which acknowledges the connection when the signals are received correctly and stores the identification code, optionally with the geographical coordinates of the detonator, as the address.
Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren gibt höchstmögliche Sicherheit bei dem gleichzeitigen Anloggen von Zündern in einem Zündsystem mit mehreren Zündkreisen und damit mehreren Loggern.The inventive method gives the highest possible security in the simultaneous logging of detonators in an ignition system with multiple ignition circuits and thus multiple loggers.
Der Anlog-Manager eignet sich weiterhin dazu, die Übermittlung der Verzögerungszeiten von dem Blaster über die Logger an die einzelnen Zünder zu koordinieren. Da diese Datenübertragung ebenfalls durch die oben beschriebenen Schadensmöglichkeiten an den Zündern oder Zündleitungen behindert und gestört werden kann, ist es vorteilhaft, wenn jeder Zünder einzeln angesprochen wird. In diesem Fall müssen die Logger und der Blaster eine Adresse haben, damit sie vom Anlog-Manager angesprochen werden können. Der Anlog-Manager lässt dann die Datenübertragung vom Blaster nur an den Logger und von dort nur an die Zünder zu, der auch angesprochen werden soll und sperrt die übrigen Logger. Ist die Datenübertragung von dem Blaster an den jeweiligen Logger und von dort aus an die Zünder abgeschlossen, kann der Blaster das Ende der Datenübertragung mittels eines Signals an den Anlog-Manager melden. Ebenso kann der jeweilige Logger an den Anlog-Manager melden, dass der Empfang der Verzögerungszeitdaten durch die Zünder erfolgt ist und die Programmierung der einzelnen Zünder abgeschlossen ist. Aufgrund dieser Signale kann der Anlog-Manager den vorhergehenden Logger abschalten und den nachfolgenden Logger auf Empfang schalten. Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren stellt sicher, dass bei der Signalübertragung nach dem Anschließen der Zünder sowie beim anschließenden Programmieren der Verzögerungszeiten die Signalübertragung eines Zünders oder Loggers nicht durch die Signalübertragung eines weiteren Zünders oder Loggers gestört wird und dass Fehler bei der Übertragung sofort erkannt werden und dem jeweiligen Sender oder Empfänger, dem Zünder oder dem Logger, zugeordnet werden können.The Anlog Manager is also suitable for coordinating the transmission of the delay times from the blaster via the loggers to the individual detonators. Since this data transmission can also be hindered and disturbed by the above-described possibilities of damage to the detonators or ignition lines, it is advantageous if each detonator is addressed individually. In this case, the logger and the blaster must have an address so that they can be addressed by the log-on manager. The Anlog Manager then allows the data transfer from the Blaster only to the logger and from there only to the detonators, which should also be addressed and locks the other loggers. When the data transfer from the blaster to the respective logger and from there to the detonators is complete, the blaster can signal the end of the data transfer by means of a signal to the Anlog Manager. Likewise, the respective logger can report to the Anlog Manager that the reception of the delay time data by the detonators has taken place and the programming of the individual detonators has been completed. Based on these signals, the Anlog Manager can switch off the previous logger and switch the subsequent logger to receive. The inventive method ensures that in the signal transmission after connecting the detonator and the subsequent programming of the delay times, the signal transmission of a detonator or a logger is not disturbed by the signal transmission of another detonator or logger and that errors in the transmission are detected immediately and the respective Sender or receiver, the detonator or the logger can be assigned.
Anhand eines Ausführungsbeispiels wird die Erfindung näher erläutert.Reference to an embodiment of the invention will be explained in more detail.
Die vorliegende Darstellung zeigt ein Zündsystem 1 mit vier getrennten Zündkreisen 2 bis 5. Jeder der Zündkreise 2 bis 5 besteht aus einer Busleitung 6 bis 9, die jeweils von einem Logger 10 bis 13 ausgehen und an der die Zünder 14 mit ihrer Zündleitung 15 in dem Anschlusspunkt 16 angeschlossen, dass heißt angeloggt sind. Bei allen vier Zündkreisen 2 bis 5 ist eine Person, an Anlogger 17 bis 20, damit beschäftigt, Zünder an die jeweiligen Busleitungen 6 bis 9 anzuloggen. Der Anlogger 17 ist gerade dabei, einen Zünder 14 mit seiner Zündleitung 15 in einem Anschlusspunkt 16 an die Busleitung 6 des Zündkreises 2 anzuloggen. Ebenso will zum gleichen Zeitpunkt der Anlogger 20 verfahren.The present illustration shows an ignition system 1 with four separate ignition circuits 2 to 5. Each of the ignition circuits 2 to 5 consists of a
Jeder der Anlogger 17 bis 20 hat ein Sende- und Empfangsgerät, einen Logdatenübermittler 21, der einen eigenen Identifizierungs-Code aufweist. Diese Logdatenübermittler 21 sind zum bidirektionalen Kontakt sowohl mit den jeweiligen Loggern 10 bis 13 als auch mit dem Anlog-Manager 22 geeignet.Each of the
Im vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel würde es bei einem gleichzeitigen Anschluss von Zündern 14 durch den Anlogger 17 und den Anlogger 20 bei einem Nebenschluss der Zünder zu einer Gefährdung der Datenübertragung kommen. Um dies zu vermeiden, haben sich sowohl der Anlogger 17 als auch der Anlogger 20 über ihre Logdatenübermittler 21 bei dem Anlog-Manager 22 unter Angabe des jeweiligen Identifizierungs-Codes angemeldet. Der Anlog-Manager 22 kann aufgrund der Identifizierungs-Codes der jeweiligen Logdatenübermittler 21 die Anlogger dem jeweiligen Logger zuordnen. So ist der Anlogger 17 dem Logger 10 und der Anlogger 20 dem Logger 13 zugeordnet.In the present embodiment, a simultaneous connection of
Im vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel hat sich der Anlogger 17, wie durch den Funkkontakt 23 symbolisiert, vor dem Anlogger 20 beim Anlog-Manager 22 gemeldet, dessen Funkkontakt mit der gestrichelten Linie 24 symbolisiert ist, so dass der Anlog-Manager 22 über den angedeuteten Funkkontakt 25 den Logger 10 einschaltet und dem Anlogger 17 das Anschließen eines Zünders 14 vor dem Anlogger 20 erlaubt. Nachdem der Anlog-Manager 22 dem Anlogger 17 die Erlaubnis zum Anloggen des Zünders 14 im Anschlusspunkt 16 gegeben hat, übermittelt dieser, im vorliegen Fall mittels des Logdatenübermittlers 21, ebenfalls per Funk, den Identifizierungs-Code des Zünders 14 und gegebenenfalls die Position des Bohrlochs an den Logger 10. Diese Datenübermittlung ist durch den Funkkontakt 26 symbolisiert. Sind die Daten des Zünders an den Logger 10 übermittelt, meldet dieser den ordnungsgemäßen Empfang der Daten über die angedeutete Funkstrecke 26 an den Logdatenübermittler 21 des Anloggers 17. Dieser quittiert daraufhin den erfolgreich vollzogenen Anloggvorgang mittels eines Signals über die Funkstrecke 23 an den Anlog-Manager 22. Daraufhin erfolgt über den angedeuteten Funkkontakt 24 die Meldung an den Logdatenübermittler 21 des Anloggers 20 mit der Mitteilung der Freigabe zum Anloggen des bereitgehaltenen Zünders 14 an die Busleitung 9. Ist von dem Anlogger 20 der Zünder erfolgreich an die Busleitung 9 angeschlossen worden, so quittiert er diesen Anschluss mittels eines Funksignals an den Anlog-Manager 22, so dass dieser die Freigabe zum Anloggen eines Zünders an einen anderen Anlogger weitergeben kann.In the present embodiment, the
Sind schließlich alle bereitliegenden Zünder 14 an die jeweiligen Busleitungen 6 bis 9 der Zündkreise 2 bis 5 angeloggt, erfolgt die Programmierung der Zünder hinsichtlich ihrer Zeitverzögerung aus dem Zündgerät oder der Auslöseeinrichtung, dem sogenannten Blaster 27. Dieser kann über Leitungen 28 bis 31 mit den jeweiligen Loggern 10 bis 13 verbunden sein. Es kann aber auch, wie hier nicht dargestellt, eine Funkverbindung zwischen dem Blaster 27 und den jeweiligen Loggern bestehen. Weiterhin besteht eine Verbindung über eine Leitung 32 oder über eine angedeutete Funkverbindung 33 zwischen dem Blaster 27 und dem Anlog-Manager 22. Der Anlog-Manager 22 ist dazu ausgestattet, die Logger 10 bis 13 jeweils gesondert an- und auszuschalten, wenn von dem Blaster 27 in den jeweiligen Zündkreisen 2 bis 5 beispielsweise die Verzögerungszeiten in den Zündern 14 abgespeichert werden sollen. Dazu erfolgt zunächst von dem Blaster 27 eine Mitteilung an den Anlog-Manager 22, welcher der Logger 10 bis 13 der Zündkreise 2 bis 5 angsprochen werden soll. Im vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel ist der Anlog-Manager 22 über den hier angedeuteten Funkkontakt 34 mit dem Logger 10 in Verbindung getreten und hat ihn für den Empfang der Daten aus dem Blaster 27 eingeschaltet, während über die übrigen Funkkontakte 35 die nachfolgenden Logger 11 bis 13 so geschaltet werden, dass sie die nur für den Logger 10 bestimmten Daten nicht empfangen können. Erst nach Übermittlung der Daten, die für den Zündkreis 2 bestimmt sind, erfolgt eine Umschaltung auf den nachfolgenden Logger und eine Sperrung des vorhergehenden Loggers, der bereits die Daten erhalten hat, sowie eine Beibehaltung der Sperre der Logger, an die diese Daten ebenfalls nicht gerichtet sind.Finally, if all the
Erst wenn sämtliche Daten von dem Blaster 27 an die jeweiligen Zündkreise 2 bis 5 übermittelt worden sind, können die Zünder von dem Blaster 27 über die jeweiligen Logger gezündet werden.Only when all the data has been transmitted from the
