- Figure 5 describes the monitoring system of a conveyor belt.
- the present invention relates to a wireless monitoring system of a conveyor belt, by means of sensors. More specifically to a multifunction sensor contained in a roller for monitoring a conveyor belt.
- a multifunction sensor (7) is located next to a seal (1) of a roller (23) and adjacent to a bearing (3) that are assembled with an axis (4) of the roller (23) that has a cover (2) , as shown in figure 1;
- the multifunction sensor (7) can be placed on both ends of the roller (23), chosen as the sensor roller in the monitoring system.
- the location of the multifunction sensor (7) that is between the bearing (3) and the seal (1) and contained within a cavity (40) is shown in detail.
- the multifunction sensor (7) shown in Figure 3A, is composed of a plate (35), which comprises an electronic circuit (50) containing a transceiver (9), an RFID reader (10), a magnetic sensor (1 1), a central processor (14), a sound sensor (15), a triaxial accelerometer (16) and a temperature sensor (17); in addition, near the electronic circuit (50) there is an RFID tag (8) or radio frequency identification tag (Radio Frequency Identification), and a geolocation module (19); in the rest of the surface there is one or a group of batteries (18) or other energy storage device; the multifunction sensor (7) with its components, which are located in the cavity (40), are fixed by different alternatives (28), such as screws, by inter-component fitting or glue, as shown in Figure 3B, which shows an isometric view of the multifunction sensor arrangement (7) and its components , which are contained in a support base (26) and a cover (27) that form the cavity (40).
- an RFID tag (13) is inserted in a rubber lining (6), which covers the cover (2) or on the same cover (2) of the roller (23), as shown in Figure 4, allows indicate the wear of said coating (6).
- the RFID tag (13) that is close to the multifunction sensor (7), is installed near the cover (2) or on the same cover (2), usually in the center of it, so that when this RFID tag (13) is periodically read by the RFID reader (10) or other external reader, it is detected and it is assumed that wear has advanced to a distance from the cover (2) when the RFID tag (13) does not respond or is not detected , they are then assumed to be damaged or altered in their position, which should proceed to a necessary inspection.
- an energy collection module which is not shown, is integrated into the roller (23), which allows the battery charge (18) to be extended or another energy storage device.
- the multifunction sensor (7) collects information from the magnetic sensor (1 1) allows to detect the variations of some nearby metallic element, located in the rotor body, closest to the magnetic sensor (1 1), to determine the rate of rotation [RPM]; the sound sensor (15), allows to detect the level of sound pressure emitted by a source of vibration, this source of vibration being a symptom of failure; the triaxial accelerometer (16), allows to directly detect the accelerations produced by the vibrations in the three coordinate axes; the temperature sensor (17) delivers the temperature inside the roller (23); these data of the information collected by the central processor (14) are sent to the transceiver (9), for the determination of the operating state of the roller (23), and data for registration and traceability; this data with The information collected is sent to gateways (24) and these, in turn, are sent to a server in a cloud (20) for the processing of said information collected.
- the multi-sensor module (7) also has a geolocation module (19), which allows the location of the rollers (23) to be determined.
- the multifunction sensor (7) uses a wireless communications protocol of low energy consumption, allowing high autonomy through batteries (18), this multifunction sensor (7) occupies a very small space, which can be integrated inside the seal of the roller (23) or any other device that is required to monitor the operating status, geolocation and traceability of the rollers (23).
- the multisensor (7) must be located close to the axis (4), the bearings (3) or the affordable structure that directly transmits the variables of interest, such as vibration, temperature, rotation rate, wear of the rubber lining (6 ), which covers the cover (2).
- the multi-sensor module (7) is represented in the form suitable for roller application, without prejudice to other types of packaging.
- the server in the cloud (20) corresponds to several virtual servers that can be scaled according to the number of multisensor modules (7) that are part of the monitoring, in this a display and analysis platform (21) is executed, the which corresponds to a system based on artificial intelligence for the analysis and visualization of data collected by all multi-sensor modules (7) in real time, from the visualization and analysis platform (21) the complete network of multi-sensor modules (7) is managed. , gateways (24) and cloud servers (20).
- the multisensor (7) through the RFID reader (10) detects the presence of the RFID tag (13) located on the rubber liner (6) or on the same cover (2), the detection information collected by the RFID reader (10) is processed in the central processor (14), which by means of the transceiver (9) sends it to the door of link (24) to enter the server in the cloud (20) and manage alerts through the viewing and analysis platform (21).
- the RFID tag (13) can be detected by an external reader, which is not shown, which through its own transceiver, sends it to the server in the cloud (20) and thus enters the system of Figure 5, to be evaluated.
