Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The invention relates to the field of maintenance and repair of complex technical systems (STS), including weapons systems and military equipment.

State of the art

Known methods of maintenance and repair of the STS at the places of their deployment, based on the use of mobile repair and diagnostic complexes (MRDK) and mobile repair shops. Examples of analogue methods are technical solutions for patents RU No. 66287 (09/10/2007), RU No. 33066 (10.10.2007), RU No. 2288113 (11/27/2006), RU No. 44602 (03/27/2005).

Closest to the claimed technical solution is a method of repairing an STS and their components (MF) using MRDK described in the description of patent RU No. 2376164 (23.10.2008), taken as a prototype.

The specified method is based on the use of MRDK with technological workplaces (TRM) located in it, technological equipment, spare parts and accessories according to the STS service profile, an automated control system (ACS) based on a computer with a reference database for STS stored in its memory, catalog a database of STS midrange, a database of an electronic archive of maintenance and repair documentation for STS, a database of spare parts kits, tools and accessories and spare parts (spare parts) (rem ntnogo set of APP (APP-F) in the composition MRDK, and a single set of APP (APP-O) composed CTC) and a remote workstation, the place (APM) for monitoring and diagnostics MF CTC, connected to the computer automation remote access channel.

The specified method involves loading documents into the ACS database on the STS profile before leaving the MRDK to the place of work. Upon arrival of the MRDK at the station of the JTS, the remote workstation is placed at the place of work directly at the SCS STS. Measurement modules and stimulating action modules are connected to the corresponding control points of the controlled midrange STS, faulty replaceable elements are determined according to the results of monitoring the technical state parameters. Repair the midrange products by the aggregate method by replacing the identified faulty replaceable elements with serviceable ones from the spare part kit ЗИП-О СТС. Carry out monitoring with the help of the remote workstation of the parameters of the technical condition and determine the fact of restoration of the operability of the examined midrange STS and STS as a whole. Transfer the faulty replaceable elements removed from the STS to the MRDK and perform the necessary repair operations on the faulty replaceable elements on the TRM MRDK using the appropriate technological equipment, spare parts and materials from the ZIP-R kit.

The advantages of this method, taken as a prototype, are:

- implementation of the full technological cycle of repair of the STS at the places of their deployment, including the repair of the MF STS by the aggregate method (by replacing the faulty replaceable elements with serviceable ones from the spare parts and spare parts of the STS) and the repair of the identified faulty replaceable elements of the MF STS on the TRM as part of the MRDK;

- reduced requirements for the level of qualification and knowledge of the repair personnel performing repair operations on the TPM;

- reducing the cost of repair of replaceable elements of the STS as part of the MRDK by improving the accuracy of accounting for the consumption of resources and management of repair operations.

The disadvantages of the known prototype method are:

- insufficient reliability of the determination of faulty removable elements of the lower level using only attached monitoring tools in the form of a portable workstation;

- reduction in the effectiveness of repairs due to the lack of preliminary separation of suspected failure of replaceable parts of the product into maintainable and non-repairable parts of the MRDK.

Disclosure of invention

The purpose of the claimed technical solution is to eliminate the disadvantages of the prototype while preserving all its advantages, namely:

- improving the reliability of identifying faulty replaceable elements of the STS through the joint use of built-in control tools from the product and remote workstation monitoring and diagnostics from the composition of the MRDK;

- improving the efficiency of repairs due to the preliminary separation of faulty replaceable elements into groups according to the criterion of their maintainability as part of the MRDK (based on a priori information entered into the ACS database before sending the MRDK to the place of the assigned work), excluding the time spent on additional work in MRDK with non-repairable replaceable elements.

The claimed method of military repair of STS armaments and military equipment at the place of deployment is based on the use of an MPX equipped similar to the MPX used in the prototype method (additionally, the MPX equipment includes technological containers for non-repairable replaceable elements) and includes all the steps specified in the prototype method.

In contrast to the prototype method, the claimed method additionally places in the ACS memory a list of maintainable and non-repairable replaceable elements and instructions for sharing the built-in and attached control means along the STS profile before leaving the MRDK to the place of work. Additionally, the claimed method includes the determination of suspected failure of replaceable product elements by measuring the controlled technical parameters of the midrange STS by sharing its own built-in monitoring tools from the STS and additional portable automated monitoring and diagnostics (ASKD) from the remote workstation, which is a defect procedure STS to the level of replaceable elements. Suspected of failure, removable elements are removed from the structure of the corresponding SCH STS midrange. By visual inspection of the ZIP-O kit, the presence of a serviceable replaceable element of this type is determined in it, and if it is installed, a serviceable replaceable element from the ZIP kit is installed in the composition of the repaired SCH STS. Then, in a known manner (for example, the method described in RF patent No. 2219572 (05/29/2002)), implemented through the joint use of built-in and attached monitoring tools based on interactive instructions from the ACS, the fact of restoration of the MF and STS operability as a whole is established. Suspected of failure replaceable elements are transferred to the MRDK for the duration of the repair. In the absence of serviceable spare parts of the appropriate type in the ZIP-O kit, suspect refusals of spare parts from the spare parts and spare parts are also transferred to the MRDK with the suspension of the repair of the SCS STS until the serviceable replaceable elements are received from the MRDK. Visually determine the types of suspected failure of replaceable elements received by the MRDK and, on the basis of the information in the ACS database, divide them into maintainable ones as part of the MRDK and non-repairable as part of the MRDK. Unrepairable failure suspects replaceable elements are placed in a technological container for transfer to a stationary repair center or for disposal, non-repairable non-repairable replaceable elements of the same types are removed from the ZIP-R technological container, install them in the design of the corresponding MF STS according to their accessories and determine the fact of restoration of operability MF and STS as a whole by the combined use of built-in monitoring tools and portable ASKD on the basis of interactive instructions ACS.

Brief Description of the Drawings

Figure 1 explains the principle of technical implementation of the claimed method.

Figure 2 explains the technological process of repairing the midrange STS using MRDK.

The implementation of the invention

The technical implementation of the method using MRDK designed to repair the STS (including weapons and military equipment) at their locations and their midrange under the control of the ACS, is illustrated in figure 1.

The MRDK contains a central computer 1 and a process control automated workstation 2 integrated with a central computer 1 via an information exchange channel 3 into a local computer network, technological process control automated workplaces 2 are structurally combined with the corresponding TPM 4. The central computer 1, workstation 2, TPM 4 are located in the MRDK 5. An external workstation 7 is connected to the information exchange channel 3 using the remote access channel 6, which is placed during work directly on the STS 8.

Upon arrival at the location of the serviced STS 8, the remote AWP 7 is transferred from the MRDK 5 directly to the location of the serviced STS 8. When monitoring the technical condition of the STS 8 from the central computer 1 in the sequence of the technical process of servicing and repair of the STS 8, the fragments are phased out repair documentation containing instructions to the repair personnel on the sequence of their actions, images of fragments of the design of the examined equipment with indication of connection points are issued Ia measurement devices from the remote workstation 7. Measured via the remote workstation 7 technical condition parameters monitored portion STS 8 are compared with allowable values of the parameters. Inconsistencies of the measured values with acceptable values are a sign of approaching the equipment to the limit state or a sign of failure. By consecutive measurements at appropriate points on the basis of the instructions of the repair documentation, faulty removable elements of the lower level of product disaggregation are identified (also called replaceable structural elements in the technical literature). Simultaneously with these measurements, the parameters are measured and faults diagnosed using the built-in monitoring tools 9 from the repaired midrange, due to the combined use of AWP 7 and the built-in monitoring tools 9 they provide a more complete assessment of the current technical condition of the monitored midrange STS and higher reliability of fault detection to the level of one replaceable element. The necessary instructions to the repair personnel are obtained on the basis of the documentation for the midrange located in the workstation 7. Suspected failure components are removed from the STS 8 design, and in their place are installed serviceable replacement elements of the same type from the spare parts kit included in the STS delivery set 8. Repeated joint measurements using remote AWP 7 and built-in control means 9 from the STS 8 determine the fact of the restoration of the STS operability. In the absence of serviceable spare parts of the appropriate type in the ZIP-O kit, suspected refusal of replaceable elements shall be transferred to MRDK 5 with the suspension of the repair of the midrange STS until the serviceable replaceable elements are received from the MRDK. All intermediate and final results of the operations to monitor the technical condition and repair of the STS 8 are recorded using the remote workstation 7 and are entered into the central computer 1 in dialogue mode, including data on the types and numbers of faulty replaceable elements removed from the STS 8 during the process repair it.

Defective replaceable elements are transferred to the MRDK 5 for repair. Received replacement parts of the product to be repaired are moved to TPM 4 and transferred from one technological place to another in the sequence of the technological repair process. The control process of the repair process using the inventive system (figure 1) can be considered by the example of repair of replaceable elements of electronic equipment.

Each replacement element that has arrived for repair must first be registered in the central computer 1. At the same time, the type of this replacement element and its identification numbers (serial number and belonging to the STS 8 design) are entered. Registration of the type and registration data, in case of duplication in the form of bar codes, is performed using the bar code reader included in the package of the central computer 1.

After registration, the identification data of the newly received replacement element is analyzed for maintainability of the replacement element in the MRDK. Next, replaceable elements are sorted into maintainable and non-repairable as part of the MRDK.

A replaceable element that cannot be repaired is taken into account in the database of the central computer 1, placed in a separate technological container 10 as part of the MRDK, and then transferred to a stationary repair center or for disposal.

A registered repairable defective replaceable element (repair object) is received (in the course of the technical process and in accordance with the instructions of the repair documentation located in the database of the central computer 1) to the nearest TPM 4. The number of TPM 4 and structurally combined workstation 2 is determined by the MRDK specialization and the repair processes implemented as part of the MRDK. In the case of repair of replaceable elements of electronic equipment, the first TPM 4 is TPM 4 for monitoring and diagnosing malfunctions of replaceable elements. Structurally combined with TPM 4 AWP 2 are the corresponding ASKD, designed to monitor the health and diagnose malfunctions of the functional units of electronic equipment.

Before starting repairs at the nearest TPM 4, repair documentation for replaceable items to be repaired, including diagnostic tests, as well as instructions to the ASKD operator on the sequence of actions during control and are transmitted from the central computer 1 of the system through the information exchange channel 3 to the AWP 2 (ASKD) diagnostics of each replaceable element. According to the instructions reproduced on the AWP 2 screen, the TPM 4 operator connects the replaceable element (repair object) to the ASKD and performs an iterative control procedure. When confirming the inoperability of the monitoring object, an indication on the troubleshooting procedure is issued on the AWP 2 screen. In the process of diagnosing malfunctions, on the AWP 2 screen, instructions are given to the operator on the connection points of the test probes according to the diagnostic algorithm (with the display on the AWP 2 screen showing the structure of the diagnosed replacement element and corresponding prompts on the connection points of the probes). Based on the diagnostic results, the possibility of repairing the replaceable element as part of the MRCD or the need for disposal of the diagnosed replaceable element is determined. If the replaceable element is maintainable as part of the MRKD, the defective radio and radio elements in the composition of the replaceable element (repair object), types and reference designations of the defective radio and radio elements to be replaced are determined. If the replaceable element cannot be repaired as part of the MRKD, then serviceable non-repairable replaceable elements of the same types are removed from the technological container ZIP-R and install them in the design of the corresponding SCH STS. The results of the monitoring and diagnostics (with identification of the type and number of the monitoring object) are transmitted from the AWP 2 through the information exchange channel 3 to the central computer 1.

Further, the faulty replaceable element, in accordance with the sequence of the technological process reflected in the repair documentation as part of the central computer 1, is transmitted from the TPM 4 for monitoring and diagnostics to the TPM 4 for electrical and radio installation work. To control the transfer procedure to AWP 2 structurally combined with TPM 4 for monitoring and diagnostics and AWP 2 structurally combined with TPM 4 for electrical and radio installation, the corresponding instructions are reproduced, according to which the operators of TPM 4 for monitoring and diagnostics and TPM 4 for electrical and radio installation work enter appropriate confirmations (about transfer the repair facility and the acceptance of the repair facility).

When the repair object arrives at TPM 4 for electrical and radio installation work from the central computer 1, in accordance with the technological repair documentation contained in the databases of the central computer 1 and the monitoring and diagnostics received from the automated workstation 2 and the results of troubleshooting diagnostics, the following instructions are issued to the automatic workstation 2 electrical and radio installation screen:

- preparation of a technological tool;

- the necessary electrical components and consumables;

- a sequence of actions to remove faulty radio-electronic elements and to install in their place serviceable radio-electronic elements from the composition of the appropriate ZIP-R package (included in the technological equipment set of TPM 4 radio-electric installation works).

To speed up the search for the necessary electro-radio elements and technological tools, the coordinates of the regular location of the corresponding ZIP-R installation or technological equipment on the shelves as part of TPM 4 are used. The installation and packaging of the found ZIP-R installation is identified by reading the identification barcodes printed on cases of laying and packing of radio-electronic elements, materials and tools. Barcodes are read using barcode readers included in the workstation 2 set. The identification of the barcode recognition results is displayed on the workstation 2 screen. All information about the replacement of radio electronic elements and other installation elements recorded during the repair of the replaceable element on the TPM 4 , transferred from AWP 2 to the central computer 1. Based on a comparison of the work performed and the previously obtained results of fault diagnosis, the central computer 1 controls the completeness of the operations repair (replacement of electronic components), and performs accounting electroradioelements consumption, wear of materials and process tool (including a possible tool breakage).

The repaired replacement element according to the instructions from the central computer 1 is supplied from TPM 4 for electrical and radio installation work to TPM 4 for monitoring and diagnostics for monitoring the restoration of operability and troubleshooting. In the event that additional unresolved malfunctions are detected, the replaceable element is returned to TPM 4 for electrical and radio installation work to eliminate the identified malfunctions. Additional work on TPM 4 to eliminate the identified malfunctions is performed under the control of the central computer 1 using AWP 2 similarly to the above procedure.

Upon confirmation of control and diagnostics of full serviceability in the TPM 4 as part of TPM 4, the repaired replacement element is taken into account in the database of the central computer 1 as restored (completely repaired) and transmitted (with the accompanying document printed on the printer from the set of the central computer 1) to the spare part About the repaired product 8, or placed in its place in the SCH STS.

Upon detection, according to the results of monitoring and diagnostics (at the beginning of the technological process of repairing the replacement element received in the MRDK), of the final defect, the replaceable element that cannot be repaired is taken into account in the database of the central computer 1, placed in a separate technological container 10 as part of the MRDK and then transferred for disposal. From the central computer 1, initial data are generated for the subsequent replenishment of spare parts and accessories STS 8 in connection with the removal of this replaceable element, which cannot be repaired.

Thus, due to the introduction of additional operations, the claimed technical effect is achieved, namely:

- improving the reliability of identifying faulty replaceable elements of the STS due to the joint use of built-in control tools from the product and attached remote AWS control and diagnostics from the composition of the MRDK;

- improving the efficiency of repairs due to the preliminary separation of faulty replaceable elements into groups according to the criterion of their maintainability as part of the MRDK (based on a priori information entered into the ACS database before sending the MRDK to the place of the assigned work), excluding the time spent on additional work in MRDK with non-repairable replaceable elements.

The technological process of repairing the midrange using MRDK, shown in figure 2, includes the following basic operations:

- placement on arrival of the MRDK at the station of deployment of the STS of the remote workstation at the place of work directly at the serviced SCH STS 11;

- determination of faulty replaceable elements 12 (by joint use of the built-in control means and the remote workstation, the built-in control means are not used in the prototype method);

- removal from the SCH STS structure of the identified defective replaceable elements and replacing them with serviceable ones from the spare parts and spare parts STS 13;

- transfer of defective replaceable elements removed from the SC MF STS to the MRDKN;

- carrying out the procedure of external inspection and detection of replaceable elements received in the MRDK 15;
