Japanese Patent No. 6753982 JP-A-2017-090953

In the prior art, there have been means for detecting and notifying an abnormality, but for example, there are cases where it is difficult for the person in charge at the site to immediately respond even if the person in charge of the site receives a notification that the abnormality has been detected. For example, when you are notified that something has gone wrong in one place, you cannot immediately remember where that place is and refer to another source (for example, in a factory). Refer to the premises map and map, and if it is a huge plant, it was necessary to design the entire plant). In view of these circumstances, it is an object of the present invention to provide a notification system that can reduce the need to get lost or search when notified of the occurrence of an abnormality.

The present inventor has investigated the causes of hesitation and searching. For example, even if information to the effect that an abnormality has occurred is simply sent in text format, the receiving side cannot intuitively recall the location where the abnormality occurred just by looking at the character string. For example, even if the name of the place where the abnormality occurred or the name of the device is notified only by a character string, it cannot be intuitively understood. Alternatively, it takes skill to reach an understandable level. Therefore, we considered a method to send an image showing the place where the abnormality occurred (for example, a photograph of the corresponding place, a map with a mark on the corresponding place, etc.) together. With this method, it is easy to intuitively understand where the abnormality occurred.

Hereinafter, specific embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described. The following description is intended to facilitate understanding of the present invention. That is, it is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

1. 1. Field of Application In one embodiment, the system for notifying the occurrence of an abnormality can be used in various industrial fields. For example, anomaly detection in factory premises, anomaly detection in building management such as office buildings, anomaly detection in hospital buildings, anomaly detection in shopping malls, anomaly detection in food courts, retail stores, data centers And so on. Hereinafter, a specific example of the present invention will be described by taking an abnormality detection in a factory premises as an example.

2. 2. System Configuration In one embodiment, the present invention relates to a system for notifying the occurrence of an abnormality. A specific example of the system is shown in FIG. The system (1000) includes an abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500), a wireless communication means (1100), a management server (1200), and a client terminal (1400). The abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500) and the wireless communication means (1100) may be mounted in one device as shown in FIG. 2, or may be mounted in a plurality of devices in a distributed manner. good. These components are networked together. The network may be a wireless connection, a wired connection, or a combination thereof. Further, a gateway (1300) or the like may be provided between the management server (1200) and the wireless communication means (1100).

The management server (1200) is not limited to a specific form, and may be a cloud form or an on-premises form. Further, the on-premises management server (1200) is configured by using an information processing device known in the art (typically, one provided with a processor, a memory, a storage medium, a communication module (for example, a network adapter, etc.)). May be good. Further, the management server has a desired program installed, and when the program commands the processor, a predetermined module, database, or the like is implemented, and a predetermined operation can be executed. The modules, databases, etc. implemented on the management server (1200) will be described later.

3. 3. The abnormality occurrence detecting means and the wireless communication means abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500) are arranged at a plurality of places. The specific place where it is arranged is not limited, and it can be appropriately arranged according to the purpose. For example, if you want to notify by pressing a button that an abnormality has occurred for no particular purpose, you can arrange it so that it is appropriately dispersed in the factory premises and does not create a depopulated area. ..

On the other hand, such accidents are likely to occur when detecting specific contents for specific purposes such as gas leak detection, boiler thermal runaway, pipe breakage, electrical system failure, and people entering restricted areas. It can be concentrated in various places.

The abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500) is a means for detecting the occurrence of some kind of abnormality, and the method of detecting the abnormality may be manual or automatic. For example, in the case of manual operation, the following examples may be given: switches (eg, buttons, levers, touch panels, foot pedals, keyboards, etc.), microphones (eg, human voice input (eg, "emergency occurrence", etc.)). Input into the microphone)). In such cases, human operation is required. On the other hand, in the case of automatic, the following examples are given: motion sensor (for example, detecting human entry), ultrasonic sensor (for example, detecting anomaly between distances to an object), sound sensor (for example, detecting an abnormality). , Sound sensor, microphone, etc. Abnormality is detected by abnormal sound, etc.), Pressure sensor (for example, abnormal rise of pressure in a closed space such as a container is detected), Current and / or voltage sensor (for example, operation status of the device) Monitoring), encoder (eg rotary encoder, linear encoder, eg detection of angular anomaly at the joint of the robot arm), water content sensor, gas sensor (eg O2 / CO2 sensor, odor, etc.), optical sensor (infrared sensor) , Illumination sensor, etc. For example, detection of abnormalities related to heat and temperature, detection of light leakage in areas where light is strictly prohibited such as dark rooms, or recognition of the presence of abnormal objects with cameras, etc.), humidity sensors, temperature sensors, etc. Pressure sensor, gyro sensor (for example, detecting the inclination of a building or the ground), magnetic sensor, acceleration sensor (for example, detecting earthquake or vibration), etc. A camera may be used as the sensor, but preferably, the image of the camera is not transmitted as it is, but the determination process is performed from the image acquired by the camera and the state information in text format is output. In other words, from the viewpoint of the load on wireless communication, it is preferable to transmit the state information in text format rather than transmitting the image data. From this point of view, a determination processing module configured to output state information from image data may be separately provided.

In a preferred embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, the first abnormality occurrence detecting means (3300) and the second abnormality occurrence detecting means (3100) for detecting the state of the first abnormality occurrence detecting means may be combined. .. As an example, a manual type detection means and an automatic type detection means may be combined. More specifically, the latter automatic detection means may be configured to detect the on / off state of the former manual detection means. As another example, automatic detection means may be combined with each other.

For example, equipment may already have a button or the like for notifying an abnormal situation. In this case, after removing the button, a new abnormality occurrence detecting means and wireless communication means may be re-installed. However, this method is troublesome to remove, and it is wasteful to remove it even though the button is still available. Therefore, by newly installing an automatic abnormality occurrence detection means (3100) and a wireless communication means (3200) that can detect the pressed state of the button while leaving the button, the existing abnormality occurrence notification device can be utilized. be able to.

The means for detecting the on / off state of the former manual detection means is not particularly limited, and for example, a state in which the button is pressed and retracted may be detected by an optical sensor or the like. Alternatively, if the lamp lights up when the existing button is pressed, the presence or absence of the lamp may be detected by an optical sensor or the like. If the switch is a lever rather than a button, an optical sensor may be placed to detect the position of the lever.

Further, when both the former and the latter are automatic detection means, for example, when one is configured to light the lamp when an abnormality occurs in the temperature sensor, the other is configured to detect the lighting of the lamp. May be done.

In any case, in the case of a configuration in which the first abnormality occurrence detecting means (3300) and the second abnormality occurrence detecting means for detecting the state of the first abnormality occurrence detecting means (3100) are combined, the existing equipment is utilized. There is an advantage in that it can be done.

The abnormality occurrence detecting means can be implemented by a method known in the art, and for example, the switches, sensors, etc. listed as examples of the means for detecting the occurrence of some of the above-mentioned abnormalities, and their inputs are used. It may be a combination with a circuit board for converting into an electric signal.

The electric signal generated by the abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500) is passed to the wireless communication means (1100) and transmitted to the network by the wireless communication means. For this purpose, the wireless communication means includes a first communication module. The first communication module separately transmits the identification information together with the electric signal generated by the abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500). Thereby, the side receiving the electric signal (for example, the management server (1200)) can specify where the signal came from. The identification information may be, for example, identification information representing the wireless communication means (1100), or may be identification information representing the abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500). In this regard, the abnormality occurrence detecting means and the wireless communication means are provided so as to have a 1: 1 correspondence.

The wireless communication standard is not particularly limited, and communication standards known in the art such as Bluetooth (registered trademark), Wifi (registered trademark), and LPWA can be used. A preferred communication standard is LPWA. The reason for this is that when installed as a device, if a large amount of electric power is consumed, maintenance such as battery replacement may occur, or trouble such as pulling a power cable at the time of installation may occur. However, in the case of LPWA, since it has a characteristic of low power consumption, it is possible to avoid such trouble. Furthermore, since LPWA has a long reach, it is suitable for installation on a large site such as a factory.

The LPWA can include standards known in the art, and examples thereof include "LoRa", "SIGFOX", "NB-IoT" and the like. Particularly preferred is "LoRa". Reasons for this include the fact that it can be used free of charge, the current consumption is small, and the self-employed network can be freely created.

Further, the above-mentioned abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500) and wireless communication means (1100) may be provided as separate devices and connected to each other, or may be mounted as the same device. In this regard, the present invention in one embodiment includes a device including an abnormality occurrence detecting means and a wireless communication means for notifying that the abnormality occurrence detecting means has detected an abnormality.

4. Management server The management server (1200) includes, for example, an abnormality warning information generation module (4100), a database (4200) in which image data for indicating the location of an abnormality is stored in advance, and a database (4200), as shown in FIG. It includes a second communication module (4300). The abnormality warning information generation module (4100) reads the corresponding image data from the database (4200) based on the identification information sent from the above-mentioned wireless communication means (1100 in FIG. 1, for example, the first communication module). Can be done. Further, the abnormality warning information generation module (4100) is configured to transmit image data indicating an abnormality occurrence location to a client terminal (1400) described later via the second communication module (4300).

The database (4200) stores image data, and the image data is stored in association with the identification information. For example, when the identification information sent from the above-mentioned wireless communication means (1100 in FIG. 1, for example, the first communication module) is the identification information of the wireless communication means (1100), the wireless communication means (1100) The identification information and the image data can be associated and stored. In another example, when the identification information sent from the above-mentioned wireless communication means (1100 in FIG. 1, for example, the first communication module) is the identification information assigned to the abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500). , The identification information of the abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500) can be stored in association with the image data.

Here, the image data to be stored is not particularly limited. Further, the image data is not limited to still images such as so-called JPEG, PNG, and BMP formats, and may include moving images. Further, the image data is not limited to photographs, but may include illustrations.

Further, the image data includes, for example, a photograph or an illustration of the appearance of the device to which the abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500) is attached, a photograph or an illustration of the surroundings including the place where the abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500) is attached, and the like. Alternatively, a two-dimensional map or a three-dimensional map in which a mark is inserted at a place where the abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500) is attached may be included.

For example, as shown in FIG. 5, the database (4200) may store data so that the identification information and the image data are paired. Thereby, necessary image data can be extracted by designating the identification information. In the example of FIG. 5, image data corresponding to the abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500) of the identification information A00001 and A00002 shown in FIG. 1 is stored. The abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500) of A00001 and A00002 are attached to different places on the same production line. Therefore, the corresponding image data presents an image of the same production line, but arrows are inserted at different places. As a result, the viewer of the image can intuitively understand from which abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500) in the same production line the detection is made.

The image data may be transmitted to a client terminal (1400) described later via the second communication module (4300) in a state of being extracted without any processing. Alternatively, the image data may be processed to some extent and then transmitted to a client terminal (1400) described later via the second communication module (4300). The following is an example of processing image data.

FIG. 6 shows an example in which the database (4200) stores data in a format different from that of FIG. Image data corresponding to the abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500) of the identification information B00001 and B00002 shown in FIG. 1 is stored. The image data represents a three-dimensional premises map, and B00001 and B00002 correspond to the data of the same premises map. However, the database (4200) separately stores the coordinate information, and B00001 and B00002 correspond to different coordinate information from each other.

Here, the abnormality warning information generation module (4100) can include an image composition submodule as a submodule, and the image composition submodule acquires image data and coordinate information from the database (4200) to obtain an image. Can be synthesized. For example, when the abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500), which is the identification information B00001, detects the occurrence of an abnormality, the image synthesis submodule processes the premises map data of FIG. 6 and draws an arrow as shown in FIG. The inserted image data can be combined. At this time, the position where the arrow is inserted can be determined based on the coordinate information. Therefore, when the abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500) which is the identification information B00002 detects the occurrence of an abnormality, the image data is so that the position where the arrow is inserted is different even if the same premises map as the case of the identification information B00001 is used. Can be synthesized.

Further, when both the abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500) of B00001 and B00002 detect the occurrence of an abnormality, the image data in which two arrows are inserted in the common premises map can be combined. The positions of the two arrows correspond to the coordinate information of B00001 and B00002, respectively.

The anomaly warning information generation module (4100) can not only extract data from the database (4200) but also create a message for transmission to the client terminal (1400). For example, the data of the template document is stored separately in the database, the device name and location name corresponding to the identification information (these information may also be stored in the database), etc. are acquired based on the identification information, and the message is sent. Can be generated. For example, if the data of the template document has the content "Abnormality has been detected in XXX", the process of changing the "XXXX" part to the device name, place name, etc. as appropriate is the abnormality warning information. The generation module (4100) can be executed. Then, the generated message can be transmitted to the client terminal (1400) via the second communication module (4300) in the same manner as the above-mentioned image data.

As a modification, the abnormality warning information generation module (4100) is based on a combination of information transmitted by a plurality of abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500) in the same time zone (for example, within 1 minute, within 10 minutes, etc.). , Can generate different warning information. As a specific example, there is a case where a first abnormality occurrence detecting means based on a gas sensor and a second abnormality occurrence detecting means based on a motion sensor are provided in the same place. In this case, the gas leak is detected by the first abnormality generation detecting means and transmitted to the management server (1200) by the wireless communication means (1100). Based on this, the management server (1200) extracts the corresponding image data and transmits the desired data indicating the location of the abnormality to the client terminal (1400). However, if the first abnormality occurrence detecting means detects a gas leak and the second abnormality occurrence detecting means detects that a person is nearby at the same time, the management server is based on this. It is possible to send data indicating a higher level of warning.

As a result, an abnormality warning information generation module (4100) can generate different levels of warning information depending on whether a gas leak is detected but there are no people in the vicinity and a gas leak is detected and there are people in the vicinity. Can be generated. Then, based on different levels of warning information, the person in charge can take appropriate measures.
Further, although it is not essential, typically, the first abnormality occurrence detecting means does not detect the gas leak, and the second abnormality occurrence detection means that a person is nearby at the same time zone. When the means detects it, the abnormality warning information generation module (4100) can also determine that the warning information is not generated.

5. Client terminal The client terminal (1400) is connected to the management server (1200) and can receive image data indicating the location of the abnormality. Preferably, the client terminal (1400) can receive the message as well as the image data.

The client terminal (1400) may be an information processing device known in the art (typically, one provided with a processor, a memory, a storage medium, a communication module (for example, a network adapter, etc.)). Typically, a personal computer, a tablet terminal, a smartphone and the like can be mentioned.

The client terminal (1400) can include a monitoring module. The monitoring module uses the client terminal (1400) by receiving the image data, messages, etc. transmitted by the management server (1200) and displaying them on the display (separately, voice output, vibration, etc. may be combined). You can notify the user.

For example, as shown in FIG. 8, the client terminal (1400) can display a combination of an image and a text. This makes it possible to intuitively understand where the abnormality occurred, compared to displaying only a message.

As in the past, if only a message without an image is used, only the text information "The error occurrence button was pressed at XX on the inspection line" will be available. I don't immediately know where XX of "At XX of the inspection line" is. However, by outputting the image together, it is possible to intuitively understand where the abnormality occurred in the inspection line and take appropriate measures.

In a preferred embodiment, when an abnormality is detected at a plurality of locations in the same time zone, the locations where the abnormality is detected may be simultaneously presented in one image data as shown in FIG. This makes it possible to understand whether it is the physical position of the place where the abnormality occurred (or the position where the pipes, conductors, etc. are interlocked with each other). Therefore, it is possible to predict whether the anomaly occurring at each location is an independent event or a related event. Therefore, when instructing measures against the occurrence of an abnormality, it can contribute to the judgment material of whether to assign to the same person in charge or to a different person in charge.

In another embodiment, the portion where the abnormality is detected may be enlarged and displayed. For example, in the case of a configuration in which pressure is applied to the inside of a pipe by using a large hydraulic device or the like, the pipe has a plurality of routes and is complicated, so that the structure as a whole is huge. In the example of FIG. 10, it is notified that an abnormality has occurred in a specific part of a plurality of pipes sent by the hydraulic device. More specifically, a hydraulic pressure sensor as an abnormality detecting means is provided at a point where two piping lines (XX and YY) meet. Then, when the pressure drops due to a leak from the pipe (for example, a leak from the flange portion), the pressure information is transmitted to the management server (1200) through the wireless communication means corresponding to the abnormality detecting means. The management server (1200) may store in advance an image of the device shown in FIG. 10 as an image corresponding to the pressure sensor in the database and notify the client terminal (1400). The user of the client terminal (1400) is informed that a leak has occurred at a specific location in the huge piping system. In this way, instead of simply notifying that an abnormality has occurred in the plant, by notifying what kind of abnormality has occurred in which part of the equipment, we will deal with it while making predictions in advance before going to the site. You can (for example, go to the site with the necessary verification tools in advance).

In another embodiment, the client terminal (1400) can include a second abnormality warning information generation module and a location information module. The second abnormality warning information generation module can perform further processing on the composite image generated by the abnormality warning information generation module of the management server (1200).

For example, the second abnormality warning information generation module can acquire information on the current position of the client terminal (1400) through the position information module. The position information module itself can acquire the current position through a GPS sensor and / or Wifi (registered trademark) and transmit it to the second abnormality warning information generation module.

For example, the second abnormality warning information generation module can generate route information to the abnormality occurrence location based on the composite image received from the management server (1200) and the information of the current position. For example, as shown by the arrow in FIG. 11, when the user possessing the client terminal (1400) is on the first floor, and the place where the abnormality has occurred is on the third floor, the second abnormality is present. The warning information generation module can present a route to climb up the stairs to the 3rd floor.

In a more preferred embodiment, the second anomaly warning information generation module may be configured to switch and display the user's current position in response to acquiring the current position from the position information module in real time. good. For example, as shown in FIG. 11, not only the location where the abnormality occurs (white arrow) and the route information (black arrow), but also the state where the user is climbing the stairs from the first floor to the second floor may be shown. good. In addition to displaying the current position in real time, the second abnormality warning information generation module may be configured to display the distance to the abnormality occurrence location in real time.

6. Abnormality occurrence detection method By using the above-mentioned system, it is possible to detect the occurrence of an abnormality. Specifically, it can be realized by executing the flow shown in FIG. First, the abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500) passes information indicating that an abnormality has occurred to the wireless communication means corresponding to the abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500) (10100). The wireless communication means (for example, the first communication module) transmits the identification information of the wireless communication means to the management server together with the information indicating that the abnormality has occurred (10200). Instead of the identification information of the wireless communication means, the identification information of the abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500) may be transmitted. Next, the abnormality warning information generation module (4100) of the management server (1200) accesses the database based on the identification information (10300), and acquires the image data corresponding to the identification information (10400). The second communication module of the management server (1200) transmits the image data to the client terminal (10500). The client terminal (1400) displays image data (10600).

By the above method, it is possible to notify the occurrence of an abnormality with intuitive and easy-to-understand contents. Further, since the image data itself is prepared on the management server (1200) side, it is necessary to transmit load-bearing data such as image data in the communication path from the abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500) to the management server (1200). do not have. This point is advantageous when the communication path from the abnormality occurrence detecting means (1500) to the management server (1200) has a low capacity.

The specific embodiment of the present invention has been described above. The above embodiment is merely a specific example of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. For example, the technical features disclosed in one of the above embodiments can be applied to other embodiments. Further, unless otherwise specified, for a specific method, it is possible to replace some steps with the order of other steps, and a further step may be added between the two specific steps.
