Description
本案係與氣體動力學運用於物體輸送的方法及系統有關。This case is related to the method and system of applying gas dynamics to conveying objects.
日常生活中有各式各樣的物體需要被輸送,其中,散裝物體的輸送需求存在於各領域,例如礦石、煤炭、穀物、砂石、水泥、食材甚至是各種工業原料的粉狀、粒體物體輸送。目前,用來輸送散裝物體的方法依據輸送原理大致可以分為機械輸送、流體管道輸送以及容器輸送三大類。There are various objects that need to be transported in daily life. Among them, the transportation needs of bulk objects exist in various fields, such as ore, coal, grain, sand and gravel, cement, food materials, and even powders and granules of various industrial raw materials. Object transport. At present, the methods for conveying bulk objects can be roughly divided into three categories: mechanical conveying, fluid pipeline conveying and container conveying according to the conveying principle.
其中,容器輸送需大量人力配合因此無法完全自動化完成。機械輸送涉及複雜的機構配置,適用上常受到空間需求的限制,且也較無法避免產生周遭環境的汙染。流體管道輸送則可以在封閉的管道內以流體作為載體以運輸物體,輸送效率高、占地小、成本低、汙染少且可完全自動化。Among them, container transportation requires a lot of manpower, so it cannot be fully automated. Mechanical conveying involves complex mechanism configurations, and its application is often limited by space requirements, and it is also relatively unavoidable to pollute the surrounding environment. Fluid pipeline transportation can use fluid as a carrier to transport objects in a closed pipeline, with high transportation efficiency, small footprint, low cost, less pollution and complete automation.
在實際運用上,可以根據被傳輸物體的材料特性來選擇使用的輸送方式,而由於流體管道輸送方式具有如前所述之優異特性,使得流體管道輸送成為目前最被廣泛使用的物體輸送方式之一。In practical application, the conveying method can be selected according to the material properties of the object to be conveyed, and because the fluid pipeline conveying method has the excellent characteristics as mentioned above, the fluid pipeline conveying has become one of the most widely used object conveying methods at present. one.
流體管道輸送根據輸送載體的不同又可分為液態介質輸送或是氣態介質輸送。其中,以氣態介質輸送物體的流體管道輸送是依據氣體動力學運用於物體輸送。以自動化連續製程的生產程序中需經過多次轉化的大量粉體、粒體物體來說,其物體體積小(0.5~10 mm 3)、單體重量極輕且易受氣體吹動,因此,粉狀、粒體物體特別適用於以氣態介質依據氣體動力學運用於物體輸送。 Fluid pipeline transportation can be divided into liquid medium transportation or gaseous medium transportation according to the different transportation carriers. Among them, the fluid pipeline transportation for conveying objects by gaseous medium is applied to conveying objects according to gas dynamics. For a large number of powder and granular objects that need to undergo multiple transformations in the production process of automatic continuous production, the objects are small in size (0.5~10 mm 3 ), extremely light in weight and easily blown by gas. Therefore, Powdery and granular objects are especially suitable for conveying objects in gaseous media according to aerodynamics.
氣體動力學運用於微型物體輸送的輸送效率高、易於實現自動化且不易造成環境汙染。然而,該微型物體經由氣體在管網內移動時,其細小顆粒可能彼此碰撞、與管壁撞擊而呈現不規則性隨機小範圍移動,額外耗損氣體供給物體的動能,且當氣體動力學運用於物體輸送所輸送尺寸不一、性質不均勻的粉狀、粒狀物體,或是輸送管道轉折點較多時,所需的氣體流量與對應壓力若小於管道輸送時的氣體動力耗損、氣體壓力耗損,使得物體可能在輸送管道內產生堵塞的不確定性風險,一旦堵塞狀況無法排除時,操作人員即必須停機進行清管的動作,極為費時,且若無法及時處置輸送管道內的堵塞現象,將可能導致輸送管道持續受壓而損壞,如此將會造成無法預期的損失並大幅提高後續生產成本。The application of gas dynamics in the transportation of micro-objects has high transportation efficiency, is easy to realize automation, and is not easy to cause environmental pollution. However, when the micro-object moves in the pipe network through the gas, its fine particles may collide with each other and the pipe wall to show irregular random small-scale movement, which additionally consumes the kinetic energy supplied by the gas to the object, and when aerodynamics is applied to When the object conveying conveys powdery or granular objects with different sizes and uneven properties, or when there are many turning points in the conveying pipeline, if the required gas flow and corresponding pressure are less than the gas power loss and gas pressure loss during pipeline transportation, The uncertainty risk that the object may be blocked in the pipeline. Once the blockage cannot be eliminated, the operator must stop the operation to carry out the pigging operation, which is extremely time-consuming. If the blockage in the pipeline cannot be dealt with in time, it may As a result, the transmission pipeline is continuously damaged by pressure, which will cause unpredictable losses and greatly increase the follow-up production cost.
本案提供一種智能物體輸送方法,適於以氣體輸送物體,包含以下步驟。將氣體以第一輸送量輸入輸送管,將物體以第一供料量輸入輸送管;偵測輸送管內的工作氣壓值;當工作氣壓值於第一時間區段內上升至第一預設壓力值時發送過壓預警訊號;依據過壓預警訊號將物體輸入輸送管的第一供料量降低至第二供料量,並且將氣體輸入輸送管的第一輸送量提升至第二輸送量;當工作氣壓值於第二時間區段內由第一預設壓力值下降至安全壓力值時發送穩態訊號;以及依據穩態訊號將物體輸入輸送管的第二供料量提升至第一供料量。The present application provides a method for conveying smart objects, which is suitable for conveying objects by gas, and includes the following steps. Input the gas into the conveying pipe with the first conveying amount, and input the object into the conveying pipe with the first feeding amount; detect the working air pressure value in the conveying pipe; when the working air pressure value rises to the first preset value within the first time period Send an overpressure warning signal when the pressure value is high; according to the overpressure warning signal, the first feeding amount of the object input into the conveying pipe is reduced to the second feeding amount, and the first conveying amount of the gas input conveying pipe is increased to the second conveying amount ; Send a steady-state signal when the working air pressure value drops from the first preset pressure value to the safe pressure value within the second time period; and increase the second feeding amount of the object into the conveying pipe to the first level according to the steady-state signal Feed quantity.
本案也提供一種智能物體輸送系統,包含輸送管、入料裝置、氣體源、壓力偵測裝置、壓力預警模組以及智能控制模組。入料裝置連接輸送管以輸入物體。氣體源連接輸送管以輸入氣體。壓力偵測裝置設置於輸送管以量測輸送管內的工作氣壓值。壓力預警模組耦接於壓力偵測裝置,用以當工作氣壓值在第一時間區段內上升至第一預設壓力值時發送過壓預警訊號,並且在當工作氣壓值在第二時間區段內由第一預設壓力值下降至安全壓力值時發送穩態訊號。智能控制模組耦接於入料裝置、氣體源及壓力預警模組,用以根據過壓預警訊號控制入料裝置將物體輸入輸送管的第一供料量降低至第二供料量,同時控制氣體源將氣體輸入輸送管的第一輸送量提升至第二輸送量,並根據穩態訊號將物體的第二供料量提高至第一供料量。This case also provides an intelligent object conveying system, including a conveying pipe, a feeding device, a gas source, a pressure detection device, a pressure warning module and an intelligent control module. The feeding device is connected to the conveying pipe to input the objects. The gas source is connected to the delivery pipe to input the gas. The pressure detection device is arranged on the conveying pipe to measure the working air pressure value in the conveying pipe. The pressure warning module is coupled to the pressure detection device, and is used for sending an overpressure warning signal when the working air pressure value rises to the first preset pressure value within the first time period, and when the working air pressure value is at the second time period A steady-state signal is sent when the first preset pressure value drops to a safe pressure value in the section. The intelligent control module is coupled to the feeding device, the gas source and the pressure warning module, and is used to control the feeding device according to the overpressure warning signal to reduce the first feeding amount of the object into the conveying pipe to the second feeding amount, and at the same time The gas source is controlled to increase the first conveying amount of the gas input into the conveying pipe to the second conveying amount, and according to the steady state signal, the second feeding amount of the object is increased to the first feeding amount.
藉此,在輸送管輸送物體過程中的工作氣壓值、氣體流量、物體輸送量得以被即時監控,並可以在即將發生物體阻塞前示警及處置,避免整體系統因物體阻塞而擴大損害,可智能調節較佳輸送策略用於穩定、節能氣力系統。In this way, the working air pressure value, gas flow rate, and object conveying volume can be monitored in real time in the process of conveying objects in the conveying pipe, and an alarm and disposal can be performed before the object is about to be blocked, so as to avoid the expansion of damage to the overall system due to the blockage of the object. Adjust the optimal delivery strategy for stable, energy-saving pneumatic systems.

FIG. 2 is a schematic flowchart of an embodiment of a method for conveying a smart object in the present application. The intelligent object conveying method implemented by the intelligent object conveying system in this case is to convey powdery and granular objects in the manner of applying gas dynamics to object conveying (Pneumatic Conveyer). By continuously monitoring the air pressure or vibration state in the conveying
請參閱圖1,本案智能物體輸送系統之一實施例包含氣體源10、輸送管20、入料裝置30、壓力偵測裝置40、壓力預警模組50及智能控制模組60。氣體源10及入料裝置30分別連接輸送管20以輸入氣體及物體。壓力偵測裝置40設置於輸送管20以量測輸送管20內的工作氣壓值。壓力預警模組50耦接於壓力偵測裝置40並用以當工作氣壓值在第一時間區段內上升至第一預設壓力值時發送過壓預警訊號,並且在當工作氣壓值在第二時間區段內由第一預設壓力值下降至安全壓力值時發送穩態訊號。智能控制模組60耦接於入料裝置30、氣體源10及壓力預警模組50,用以根據過壓預警訊號控制入料裝置30將物體輸入輸送管20的第一供料量降低至第二供料量,同時控制氣體源10將氣體輸入輸送管20的第一輸送量提升至第二輸送量,並根據穩態訊號將物體的第二供料量提高至第一供料量。Referring to FIG. 1 , an embodiment of the smart object conveying system in this case includes a
參閱圖2,一實施例中,智能物體輸送方法適於以氣體輸送物體並且包含以下步驟:將氣體及物體輸入輸送管20(步驟S01)。偵測輸送管20內的工作氣壓值(步驟S02)。當工作氣壓值於第一時間區段內上升至第一預設壓力值時發送過壓預警訊號(步驟S03)。依據過壓預警訊號降低物體的供料量,並且提高氣體的輸送量(步驟S04)。當工作氣壓值於第二時間區段內由第一預設壓力值下降至安全壓力值時發送穩態訊號(步驟S05)。依據穩態訊號提高物體的供料量(步驟S06)。Referring to FIG. 2 , in one embodiment, the method for transporting the smart object is adapted to transport the object with gas and includes the following steps: feeding the gas and the object into the transport pipe 20 (step S01 ). The working air pressure value in the
藉此,透過持續偵測輸送管20內的工作氣壓值,而能在輸送管20內的輸送工作發生異常時由工作氣壓值來即時獲知異常狀況,並且依據異常狀況即時處置,而能在異常狀況發生的初始階段快速排除,避免異常狀況擴大而造成更嚴重的損害及維護費用的產生。In this way, by continuously detecting the working air pressure value in the conveying
在將氣體及物體輸入輸送管20(步驟S01)的一實施例中,可以是由智能物體輸送系統的入料裝置30來輸入物體,由氣體源10輸入氣體。於此,氣體源10可以是以第一輸送量將氣體輸入輸送管20,而入料裝置30可以是以第一供料量將物體輸入輸送管20。In an embodiment of feeding the gas and objects into the conveying pipe 20 (step S01 ), the objects may be input by the
一實施例中,第一輸送量及第一供料量可以由操作者手動設定,但本案不以此為限。In one embodiment, the first conveying amount and the first feeding amount can be manually set by the operator, but this case is not limited to this.
參閱圖1,一實施例中,第一輸送量及第一供料量也可以由智能控制模組60所控制。在此實施例中,壓力預警模組50可以是包含儲存裝置51。儲存裝置51用以儲存第一供料量、第一輸送量、第一預設壓力值及安全壓力值,第一預設壓力值大於安全壓力值。一實施例中,儲存裝置51可以但不限於是任何型態的固定或可移動隨機存取記憶體(Random Access Memory,RAM)、唯讀記憶體(Read-Only Memory, ROM)、快閃記憶體(flash memory)、硬碟(Hard Disk Drive, HDD)、固態硬碟(Solid State Drive, SSD)或類似元件或上述元件的組合。Referring to FIG. 1 , in one embodiment, the first conveying amount and the first feeding amount can also be controlled by the
參閱圖3及圖4,一實施例中,智能物體輸送系統的壓力預警模組50可以同時包含顯示器54。於此,智能控制模組60可於顯示器54上顯示操作介面以供操作者選擇所輸送物體及其性質。當操作者選擇所欲輸送的物體後,智能控制模組60即能依據操作者所選物體於儲存裝置51讀取對應物體的第一供料量及氣體的第一輸送量,並根據所讀取之第一供料量及第一輸送量控制入料裝置30及氣體源10輸入物體及氣體。於此實施例中,第一輸送量及第一供料量可以是依據氣體動力學運用於物體輸送裝置輸送相同物體或具有相似特性的物體的歷史輸送經驗所設定,但本案並不以此為限。Referring to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 , in one embodiment, the
進一步地,第一預設壓力值為輸送管20內可能開始發生物體堆積的預設壓力值。輸送管20內發生物體堆積的狀況通常會發生在一個時間區段內,漸進式地累積物體,因此,當輸送管20內的工作氣壓值在一個時間區段內上升至第一預設壓力值時,輸送管20內大多已發生物體阻塞的狀況,前述工作氣壓值上升至第一預設壓力值的時間區段即為第一時間區段。Further, the first preset pressure value is a preset pressure value at which object accumulation may begin to occur in the conveying
當工作氣壓值於第一時間區段內上升至第一預設壓力值時,壓力預警模組50發出過壓預警訊號,且智能控制模組60收到過壓預警訊號之後,壓力預警模組50依據過壓預警訊號判斷輸送管20可能開始發生物體阻塞的狀況,並據此輸出過壓預警訊號至智能控制模組60,而智能控制模組60即能依據過壓預警訊號將物體輸入輸送管20的第一供料量降低至第二供料量,減緩物體輸入輸送管20的供料量,並且將氣體輸入輸送管20的第一輸送量提升至第二輸送量,提高氣體輸入輸送管20的輸送量,讓較多的氣體推送較少的物體,提高物體被推動的可能,藉以使輸送管20內可能即將發生堆積物體或已堆積的少量物體之狀況被排除。When the working air pressure value rises to the first preset pressure value within the first time period, the
參閱圖1及圖4,一實施例中,壓力預警模組50可以是包含比較器52及計時器53。比較器52用以接收壓力偵測裝置40偵測的工作氣壓值並根據工作氣壓值比對第一預設壓力值及安全壓力值。計時器53用以紀錄壓力偵測裝置40偵測的每一工作氣壓值對應的時間,並能計算出兩工作氣壓值之間對應的時間區間。Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 4 , in one embodiment, the
當輸送管20內的積料現象逐漸被排除時,輸送管20內的氣體流動的狀態會由阻塞狀態漸漸地變得順暢,因此,輸送管20內的工作氣壓值之狀態便會在一個持續的時間內漸漸地降低回復至安全壓力值,而前述工作氣壓值回復至安全壓力值的持續時間即可設定為第二時間區段。When the accumulation phenomenon in the conveying
也就是說,當輸送管20內的工作氣壓值在第二時間區段內由第一預設壓力值下降至安全壓力值時,壓力預警模組50判斷輸送管20內的積料狀況已被排除,並據以發出穩態訊號,智能控制模組60收到穩態訊號後,便能依據穩態訊號將物體輸入輸送管20的第二供料量提升至第一供料量,藉以使輸送物體的輸送量回歸到預設值。That is to say, when the working air pressure value in the conveying
具體而言,排除積料的持續時間通常會大於發生積料的時間,因此,於一實施例中,第二時間區段大於第一時間區段。第一時間區段可以是小於3秒,而第二時間區段可以是15~20秒,但本案不以此為限。Specifically, the duration of removing the accumulation is usually longer than the time of the accumulation. Therefore, in one embodiment, the second time period is longer than the first time period. The first time period may be less than 3 seconds, and the second time period may be 15 to 20 seconds, but this case is not limited to this.
進一步地,當輸送管20內發生積料且無法排除時,輸送管20內的工作氣壓值將上升至第一預設壓力值且無法下降,為了避免持續積料對於輸送管20或整體系統產生傷害,壓力預警模組50的儲存裝置51更儲存一預設時間,比較器52依據計時器53的計時以及壓力偵測裝置40偵測的壓力值,當工作氣壓值上升至第一預設壓力值並且持續預設時間後,判斷輸送管20內的積料並未被排除,則智能控制模組60即能依此判斷結果停止入料裝置30繼續將物體輸入輸送管20,而氣體源10則提高氣體流量,持續將氣體輸入輸送管20,藉此使氣體源10持續輸入氣體推送原本就存在於輸送管20內的物體,再更提高推動物體、排除積料的可能。於此實施例中,智能控制模組60係將氣體輸入輸送管20的第二輸送量提升至第三輸送量。Further, when material accumulation occurs in the conveying
而當入料裝置30已停止將物體輸入輸送管20,且持續輸入氣體仍無法排除積料的狀況時,代表輸送管20內的積料可能非常密實而無法被推動,若氣體持續輸入輸送管20可能導致輸送管20內的氣壓持續上升而損壞輸送管20或整體系統。因此,在此實施例中,壓力預警模組50的儲存裝置51更儲存一設備承受壓力值。設備承受壓力值為智能物體輸送系統設計時依據系統架構、材料所設定的預設值。藉此,壓力預警模組50即能在當工作氣壓值由第一預設壓力值上升至設備承受壓力值時,判斷輸送管20內的氣壓已達臨界值,則智能控制模組60便依據此判斷結果控制氣體源10及入料裝置30停止輸入氣體及物體,避免繼續將氣體及物體輸入輸送管20造成輸送管20或整體系統難以修復的損毀。When the
一實施例中,入料裝置30可以是由入料斗及旋轉供料閥所組成。物體容置於入料斗內,入料斗具有入料口及排料口,旋轉供料閥設置於排料口以接收由入料斗輸出的物體並且進行供料。In one embodiment, the
一實施例中,旋轉供料閥主要是由殼體及葉輪所組成,殼體具有進料口及出料口,葉輪包含複數環設的葉片,葉輪容置於殼體內並且位於進料口與出料口之間。於此,入料斗內的物體可以藉由重力由入料斗的排料口經旋轉供料閥的進料口輸入旋轉供料閥,當物體輸入旋轉供料閥內時可以充滿於葉輪的葉片間之空間。隨著葉輪轉動,當葉輪上存有物體的位置對應至出料口的位置時,物體得以由出料口排出。在此實施例中,透過旋轉供料閥將物體輸入輸送管20的方式可以產生鎖住氣流、避免氣流逆流的效果,而能確保智能物體輸送系統內的氣壓及物體輸入輸送管20的穩定性。In one embodiment, the rotary feed valve is mainly composed of a casing and an impeller. The casing has a feeding port and a discharging port. The impeller includes a plurality of annular blades. The impeller is accommodated in the casing and is located between the feeding port and the feeding port. between the discharge ports. Here, the objects in the feeding hopper can be fed into the rotary feeding valve by gravity from the discharge port of the feeding hopper through the feeding port of the rotary feeding valve. When the objects are input into the rotary feeding valve, they can be filled between the blades of the impeller. space. With the rotation of the impeller, when the position of the object stored on the impeller corresponds to the position of the discharge port, the object can be discharged from the discharge port. In this embodiment, the way of feeding the object into the conveying
一實施例中,氣體源10可以是羅式鼓風機(Roots Blower),但本案不以此為限。羅式鼓風機是透過兩個葉形轉子在汽缸內以相反方向旋轉來壓縮和輸送氣體的回轉壓縮機,其具有結構簡單、製造方便、保養維護容易、風量穩定、壓力變化小之特點,適用於低壓力場合的氣體輸送和加壓。In one embodiment, the
一實施例中,氣體源10可以是配合流體控制閥來控制輸入輸送管20內的流量。在此實施例中,智能控制模組60耦接於流體控制閥來控制氣體源10的輸送量。In one embodiment, the
一實施例中,壓力預警模組50的儲存裝置51可以是儲存一操作查找表及預警資料。操作查找表包含各種適於智能物體輸送系統輸送的各種物體在不同特性、不同供料量所對應的氣體之第一輸送量及第二輸送量。具體而言,物體的不同特性例如是物體的不同粒徑或濕度,但本案不以此為限。操作查找表可以是由氣體動力學運用於物體輸送裝置輸送物體的歷史資料所集結而成。而預警資料則包含第一預設壓力值及安全壓力值。In one embodiment, the
一實施例中,壓力偵測裝置40為一種壓力傳感器(Pressure Sensor),又稱壓力計。壓力傳感器係用於測量液體與氣體的傳感器。壓力傳感器工作時將壓力轉換為電信號輸出,適用機械、鋼鐵、石化、電子廠房等環境。壓力傳感器除了可以直接測量壓力,壓力傳感器同時也可用於間接測量其他量,如液體/氣體的流量或速度。In one embodiment, the
一實施例中,壓力偵測裝置40可以是電容式壓力計,電容式壓力計主要是利用平行電容板的原理,當壓力偵測裝置40上的隔膜受壓力而變形時,其隔膜與底板電極間的間隙改變而造成電容的變化,藉由電容的變化便能夠感測壓力的大小。電容式壓力計可實現精準、低功耗的高度和壓力變化測量。電容式壓力計除有低功耗的優點外,在解析度與抗溫度變化的表現上均較壓阻式壓力計的表現佳。In one embodiment, the
一實施例中,壓力偵測裝置40可以是壓阻式壓力計,壓阻式壓力計主要是利用壓阻材料的特性,當壓阻材料受到應力變化而變形時,其電阻值也會因而改變,藉此而能透過電阻的變化來量測氣壓。壓阻式感測器具有高輸出電壓、高靈敏度以及製造成本低等優點。In one embodiment, the
一實施例中,壓力偵測裝置40可以是壓電式壓力計,壓電式壓力計主要是利用壓電材料的特性,當壓電材料受到應力的情況下,會產生電極化的現象而提供電荷,藉此而能透過電荷的變化來量測氣壓。壓電式壓力計具有結構簡單、體積小、重量輕、使用壽命長等優異的特點。In one embodiment, the
在氣體動力學運用於物體輸送工作的過程中,由於被輸送的物體是相對於輸送管20產生運動,因此,物體對於輸送管20產生磨損是難以避免的。且隨著物體特性的改變、輸送管20的使用狀態、操作手法的不同甚至是空氣濕度的增加都有可能使輸送管20內的物體無法順暢地被輸送。而輸送管20內最容易累積物體的位置就是不平滑的表面位置或是彎折的位置。具體而言,輸送管20內的不平滑表面可能是用以連結不同管段T的法蘭F位置;而彎折位置除了彎曲型態的輸送管20之外,用來將物體輸送到不同方向的分歧閥M位置也具有多個彎折點。當輸送管20內發生物體輸送不順暢的狀況時,將會在不平滑的表面或彎折位置產生積料而導致氣壓的上升。In the process of applying aerodynamics to the conveying of objects, since the objects to be conveyed move relative to the conveying
因此,一實施例中,壓力偵測裝置40可以是至少設置於輸送管20上不平滑或彎折的位置,藉以能在最易發生積料之處感測到輸送管20內氣壓的變化。在其他實施例中,壓力偵測裝置40設置的位置也可以設置於對應分歧閥M的位置或對應分歧閥M的法蘭F的位置。但本案並不以此為限,壓力偵測裝置40也可以在輸送管20上沿線完整布置以確保輸送管20上的每個位置發生異常壓力變化時即時處置。Therefore, in one embodiment, the
一實施例中,智能物體輸送系統透過壓力偵測裝置40除了可以即時感測到輸送管20內發生積料的狀況之外,也可以即時感測到異常的失壓。由於智能物體輸送系統整體運作時難免會產生震動,且物體入口至物體出口間的輸送管20可能由多節管段T、法蘭F及分歧閥M連接所組成,當輸送管20因為材料疲勞、工程缺陷或是遭受撞擊而導致異常鬆脫或是破裂時,輸送管20內的氣體將會在短時間內大量洩漏而失壓。In one embodiment, the
為使前述失壓狀況也可以被監控,一實施例中,壓力預警模組50的儲存裝置51內儲存一第二預設壓力值及一第三時間區段。壓力預警模組50在當工作氣壓值於第三時間區段內下降至第二預設壓力值時,判斷輸送管20異常失壓,並且依據判斷結果發送失壓預警訊號,則智能控制模組60接收失壓預警訊號並依據失壓預警訊號控制氣體源10及入料裝置30停止輸入氣體及物體,避免氣體及物體的浪費。In order to monitor the aforementioned pressure loss condition, in one embodiment, the
在氣體動力學運用於物體輸送工作的過程中,由於氣體、物體與輸送管20間的隨機性碰撞無法避免,因此,輸送管20在輸送物體的過程中也難以避免地會產生震動,而震動也是對於系統結構損害的因素之一。一實施例中,智能物體輸送系統更包含震動感知器70。於此實施例中,震動感知器70設置於輸送管20以感測輸送管20的震動值,而壓力預警模組50的儲存裝置51內則儲存有震動安全值及震動警戒值,比較器52依據震動感知器70所感測的震動值比對震動安全值與震動警戒值,當震動感知器70所感測的震動值上升至震動警戒值時,發送震動警戒訊號,而智能控制模組60即能依據震動警戒訊號改變氣體源10的輸送量、氣體壓力或是改變入料裝置30的供料量,以降低系統的震動值,避免智能物體輸送系統因震動而對輸送物體、系統管網的產生損害。一實施例中,震動感知器70可以是加速度感測計,用以量測瞬時震動量。In the process of applying aerodynamics to the conveying of objects, since the random collision between the gas, the object and the conveying
