For example, the thermal image may include an image in which the temperature of the hot plate 30 rises to the maximum temperature and then decreases, and the management server 1520 determines that the thermal image is the temperature of the hot plate 30 as described above. In the case of descending again after rising to the maximum temperature, information indicating that the bonding device 1510 has operated once (or information indicating that the bonding device 1510 has joined (or created) one elbow pipe) can create

18 is a conceptual diagram illustrating a (communication network-based) system for managing a bonding device for bonding an elbow pipe according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 18 , the management server 1520 according to an embodiment of the present invention may operate based on information obtained from the piping system 1800 .

Referring to FIG. 18 , the management server 1520 according to an embodiment of the present invention is a piping system including a plurality of pipes (or a plurality of pipes) and a plurality of elbows (or a plurality of elbow pipes) ( 1800) can be connected. Here, the plurality of elbows (or elbow pipes) included in the piping system 1800 may be joined (or generated) by the bonding device 1510 or joined (or generated) by another bonding device.

First, the management server 1520 is a plurality of pipes (or a plurality of pipes) of the piping system 1800 and/or a plurality of pipes and/or a plurality of elbows detected by a plurality of sensors attached to a plurality of elbows. You can get information about the status.

Here, the plurality of sensors may include a vibration sensor for detecting vibration generated in the plurality of pipes and/or the plurality of elbows and a pressure sensor for detecting the internal pressure of the plurality of pipes and/or the plurality of elbows. Such a plurality of sensors may be installed in a plurality of branching means forming a plurality of branches in a plurality of pipes. For example, the vibration sensor attached to the pipe may be the first vibration sensor, and the vibration sensor attached to the elbow may be the second vibration sensor. In addition, the information detected and generated by the first vibration sensor may be first vibration sensor information, and the information detected and generated by the second vibration sensor may be second vibration sensor information. Also, for example, the pressure sensor attached to the pipe may be the first pressure sensor, and the pressure sensor attached to the elbow may be the second pressure sensor. Also, the information sensed and generated by the first pressure sensor may be first pressure sensor information, and the information sensed and generated by the second pressure sensor may be second pressure sensor information.

For example, the first pipe, which is one of the plurality of pipes, may form a first shunt that is a shunt by additionally coupling one pipe by a branching means, and a first shunt using the pipe additionally coupled in the first pipe. Branching means may be installed at the point forming the. At this time, the vibration sensor and the pressure sensor described as a plurality of sensors may be installed in the branching means.

At this time, information on the states of the plurality of pipes and/or the plurality of elbows obtained by the plurality of sensors included in the plurality of pipes and/or the plurality of elbows may be periodically obtained based on a preset period. can In addition, information on the intensity of vibration detected by the vibration sensor included in the plurality of sensors and information on the intensity of pressure detected by the pressure sensor included in the plurality of sensors may be included.

In other words, each of the plurality of sensors included in the plurality of pipes and/or the plurality of elbows may obtain information about the state of the plurality of pipes and/or the plurality of elbows at the location where each of the plurality of sensors is installed, The obtained information on the plurality of pipes and/or the plurality of elbows may be transmitted to the management server 1520 . Through this method, the management server 1520 may acquire information on the states of the plurality of pipes and/or the plurality of elbows based on the plurality of sensors.

Thereafter, the management server 1520 may determine whether the state of the plurality of pipes and/or the plurality of elbows is abnormal based on the acquired state information and information about the time the state information is acquired.

Specifically, in the process of determining whether the state of the plurality of pipes and/or the plurality of elbows is abnormal, the management server 1520 determines the intensity according to at least one of information on the intensity of vibration and information on the intensity of pressure. It is possible to determine whether the state of the plurality of pipes and/or the plurality of elbows is abnormal by checking the value of ? for a preset time.

Here, the preset time may be preset by the user of the management server 1520, and may be set corresponding to a time such as a minute unit or an hour unit. In addition, the preset time may not be set corresponding to the time, but may be set corresponding to a period such as a daily unit, a weekly unit, or a monthly unit.

In addition, the management server 1520 determines whether the state of the plurality of pipes and/or the plurality of elbows is abnormal, the intensity value of the vibration according to the information on the intensity of the vibration is the abnormality of the pipe based on the vibration. When it is maintained for a preset time (eg, first reference time) under a preset value (eg, first vibration threshold) to determine whether or not, the intensity of vibration among a plurality of pipes and/or a plurality of elbows It may be determined that an abnormality has occurred in the state of the pipe in which the information on the sensed pipe has been detected. For example, if the management server 1520 is maintained for a preset time in a state where the intensity value of the vibration is less than a preset value (eg, the first vibration threshold), the vibration does not occur because an abnormality occurs in the corresponding pipe. can be judged as For example, when water supply, gas, etc. are normally supplied and transported through the piping, even a slight vibration is generated (or measured), but holes, gaps, etc. are formed at the first point of the piping, so that water supply, gas, etc. When a problem (or anomaly) such as leakage occurs and no vibration occurs (or when vibration occurs or is measured relatively during the day) around the vibration sensor that measures vibration at the second point of the pipe taking into account what may happen.

In the process of determining whether the management server 1520 is abnormal for the state of the plurality of pipes and/or the plurality of elbows, the intensity value of the vibration is greater than or equal to another preset value (eg, a second vibration threshold) Even when maintained for the second reference time, it can be determined that the vibration is excessively generated due to the occurrence of an abnormality in the corresponding pipe, that is, an abnormality has occurred. Here, the second vibration threshold is a value greater than the above-described first vibration threshold. As water or other substances continue to flow into the pipe even though the pipe is clogged, a kind of water hammer phenomenon in which the inflow water or other material continues to hit the clogged part occurs, and vibration beyond a predetermined standard may occur. taking into account that there is

In this way, the management server 1520, for example, when the intensity value of the vibration is lower than the first vibration threshold value and is higher than or equal to the second vibration threshold value, it can be determined that an abnormality has occurred in the pipe. In other words, the management server 1520, for example, when the intensity value of vibration is higher than or equal to the first vibration threshold value and is lower than the second vibration threshold value, it can be determined that there is no abnormality in the pipe. .

In addition, in the process of determining whether the state of the plurality of pipes and/or the plurality of elbows is abnormal, the management server 1520 determines whether the pressure intensity value according to the information on the pressure intensity is abnormal based on the pressure. Information on the intensity of pressure among a plurality of pipes and/or a plurality of elbows when maintained for a preset time (eg, a third reference time) in a state less than a preset value (eg, a first pressure threshold) for judging It can be determined that an abnormality has occurred in the state of the pipe in which the is detected. For example, if the management server 1520 is maintained for a preset time (eg, the third reference time) in a state where the intensity value of the pressure is less than a preset value (eg, the first pressure threshold), abnormality in the corresponding pipe When this occurs, it can be judged that no pressure is generated. For example, when water or gas is normally supplied and transported through a pipe, even a slight pressure is generated (or measured), but a hole, a gap, etc. is formed at the first point of the pipe, so that water, gas, etc. When a problem (or anomaly) such as leakage occurs, there is no pressure at all around the pressure sensor measuring the pressure at the second point in the pipe (or when the pressure occurs or is measured relatively during the day). taking into account what may happen.

The management server 1520 is a state in which the intensity value of the pressure is greater than or equal to another preset value (eg, a second pressure threshold) in the process of determining whether the state of the plurality of pipes and/or the plurality of elbows is abnormal. Even when maintained for the second reference time, it can be determined that the pressure is excessively generated due to the occurrence of an abnormality in the corresponding pipe, that is, an abnormality has occurred. Here, the second pressure threshold is a value greater than the aforementioned first pressure threshold. This is because water or other substances continue to flow into the pipe even though the pipe is clogged, causing a kind of water hammer phenomenon in which the inflowing water or other substance continues to hit the blocked part, resulting in pressure exceeding a predetermined standard. taking into account that there is

In this way, the management server 1520, for example, when the pressure intensity value is lower than the first pressure threshold value and is higher than or equal to the second pressure threshold value, it can be determined that an abnormality has occurred in the pipe. In other words, the management server 1520, for example, when the pressure intensity value is higher than or equal to the first pressure threshold value and is lower than the second pressure threshold value, it can be determined that there is no abnormality in the pipe. .

In this way, the management server 1520 for performing the communication network-based pipe management method according to an embodiment of the present invention determines the state of the pipe based on at least one of information on the intensity of vibration and information on the pressure. It can be judged whether there is an abnormality.

Thereafter, the management server 1520 may update the pipe management list by using the determined results of whether the plurality of pipes and/or the plurality of elbows are abnormal.

Here, the pipe management list updated by the management server 1520 includes information on a location where a plurality of pipes and/or a plurality of elbows are disposed, a plurality of branching means for forming a shunt in a plurality of pipes and/or a plurality of elbows. Information on the location of the sensors, sensor information registered in advance to identify a plurality of sensors installed in a plurality of branching means (eg, identification number, identification text, etc.) and abnormal information preset to identify whether there is an abnormality (eg, For example, two types of information that can identify whether there is an abnormality) may be included.

And, the management server 1520 may be in a state of periodically updating the pipe management list.

In such a situation, the management server 1520 has an abnormality in the state of at least one pipe among a plurality of pipes (or a plurality of pipes) and/or a plurality of elbows (or a plurality of elbow pipes) included in the pipe management list. If it is determined that there is, it is possible to check information about the pipe determined to have an abnormality among the information on the plurality of pipes and/or the plurality of elbows included in the pipe list.

Thereafter, the management server 1520 may provide the user of the management server 1520 with information about the pipe in which the abnormality has been confirmed.

Specifically, the management server 1520 may include a display means such as a screen, and by outputting information on the pipe confirmed to have an abnormality through the display means, information about the pipe confirmed to have occurred to the user. can provide
