Description

流体機械及び流体機械システムの運用方法How to operate fluid machinery and fluid machinery systems
 本発明は、流体機械及び流体機械の運用方法に係り、位置情報を利用する流体機械及び流体機械システムの運用方法に関する。 The present invention relates to an operation method of a fluid machine and a fluid machine, and relates to an operation method of a fluid machine and a fluid machine system using position information.
 気体(空気や他の気体)を圧縮する圧縮機や流体を圧送するポンプ装置を始めとする流体機械は、位置要因に対してその運転や運用を調節する必要がある。位置要因とは流体機械が存在する(設置される)位置(場所等)を意味し、例えば、定置型の流体機械であれば定点であり、可搬型或いは移動型の流体機械であれば、経時的に定まる特定点であろう。 Fluid machines such as compressors that compress gas (air and other gases) and pumping devices that pump fluid need to adjust their operation and operation with respect to positional factors. The position factor means the position (place, etc.) where the fluid machine exists (installs). For example, in the case of a stationary fluid machine, it is a fixed point, and in the case of a portable or mobile fluid machine, aging. It will be a specific point to be determined.
 一方において、位置にはその位置による周囲環境に依存する種々の自然要因と関連性がある。周囲環境の一例としては、周囲温度や周辺気圧等の要素を含む。例えば、流体機械としての気体圧縮機の場合であれば、例えば、設置個所の周囲温度は機器の耐熱性能や吐き出す圧縮気体の温度に影響する要素である。また例えば、設置個所の周囲気圧は吐出し圧力に影響する要素である。
  液体や粉体等を圧送するポンプ装置の場合であれば、例えば、取水源の凍結や枯渇などの要因もあろう。
On the one hand, the position is related to various natural factors that depend on the surrounding environment depending on the position. Examples of the ambient environment include factors such as ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure. For example, in the case of a gas compressor as a fluid machine, for example, the ambient temperature of the installation location is a factor that affects the heat resistance performance of the equipment and the temperature of the compressed gas to be discharged. Further, for example, the ambient air pressure at the installation location is a factor that affects the discharge pressure.
In the case of a pump device that pumps liquids, powders, etc., there may be factors such as freezing and depletion of the water intake source.
 かかる周囲温度や周囲気圧は、流体機械の設置場所(緯度・経度・標高・深度等)に依存するのみならず、気象の変化によっても影響する要素である。 The ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure are factors that not only depend on the installation location of the fluid machine (latitude, longitude, altitude, depth, etc.), but also on changes in the weather.
 他方において、流体機械が存在する(設置される)位置(場所等)には、例えば国・地域・種々の規制や制約といった人為的な取決めとも関連性がある場合がある。所謂環境や社会性に基づく規制等である。例えば、河川から揚水を行うポンプ装置の場合であれば、取水制限流域からの揚水は制限されるであろうし、可搬型或いは移動型の気体圧縮機の場合であれば、騒音規制(例えば、医療機関、教育・研究機関、住宅地の周辺近傍等に伴う環境(騒音や排ガス規制等)や交通規制(車両の幅・長さ・高さサイズや重量別の通行規制や排ガス規制等に伴う月・週・日・曜日毎の通行規制等)によって、気体圧縮機の稼働状態や移動が制限されることもあろう。 On the other hand, the location (location, etc.) where the fluid machine exists (installs) may be related to artificial arrangements such as countries / regions / various regulations and restrictions. Regulations based on so-called environment and sociality. For example, in the case of a pump device that pumps water from a river, pumping from a restricted basin may be restricted, and in the case of a portable or mobile gas compressor, noise regulation (eg, medical). Months associated with the environment (noise and exhaust gas regulations, etc.) and traffic regulations (vehicle width, length, height size, weight-based traffic regulations, exhaust gas regulations, etc.) associated with institutions, educational / research institutions, and the vicinity of residential areas.・ Traffic restrictions for each week, day, and day) may limit the operating status and movement of gas compressors.
 気体圧縮機を例にすると、周囲環境に対しては、気体圧縮機の各部に吐出温度センサや圧力センサを備え、各センサの信号(出力値)が予め決められた設定値を超える若しくは下回るなどの現象が発生したとき、運転状態を動的に変化する等の機構を備えることで運転状態を管理することもできる。即ち周囲温度や周辺気圧等といった自然環境の変化に対して、機器自体が動的な制御を行うことができる。 Taking a gas compressor as an example, for the surrounding environment, each part of the gas compressor is equipped with a discharge temperature sensor and a pressure sensor, and the signal (output value) of each sensor exceeds or falls below a predetermined set value. It is also possible to manage the operating state by providing a mechanism such as dynamically changing the operating state when the above phenomenon occurs. That is, the device itself can dynamically control changes in the natural environment such as ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure.
 他方、人為的な取決めに対しては、例えば、予め各種規制や制限に関する情報に基づいて、流体機械の使用者や管理者が運転や移動に対して事前に機器の運転や運用を判断することによって対応することが可能である。 On the other hand, for artificial arrangements, for example, the user or manager of a fluid machine should judge the operation or operation of the equipment in advance for operation or movement based on information on various regulations and restrictions in advance. It is possible to respond by.

In the first embodiment, a gas compressor is applied as a fluid machine, and an example in which control is performed in consideration of peripheral natural factors in which the gas compressor is located will be described as position-dependent correlation information.

 図1に、本発明を適用した第1の実施形態である給油式スクリュー型空気圧縮機の構成を模式的に示す。なお、本発明は流体機械に適用できるものであるが、流体機械としては、容積型や遠心型の気体(空気や他の気体を含む)圧縮機や揚水装置(ポンプ装置)等に適用することも可能である。 FIG. 1 schematically shows the configuration of a refueling screw type air compressor according to the first embodiment to which the present invention is applied. Although the present invention can be applied to a fluid machine, the fluid machine shall be applied to a positive displacement type or centrifugal type gas (including air and other gases) compressor, a pumping device (pump device), and the like. Is also possible.
 先ず、第1実施形態における給油式スクリュー型空気圧縮機の構成について説明する。給油式スクリュー空気圧縮機100(以下、単に「圧縮機100」と称する場合がある。)は、インバータ5を介して電力が供給され、駆動源としての電動機4によって圧縮機本体3が駆動すると、吸込みフィルタ1によって大気中の塵埃を取除き、吸込み絞り弁2を介して、大気空気が圧縮機本体3に吸い込まれる。吸い込まれた大気空気は、圧縮機本体3により昇圧され、所定の圧力に達した段階で、圧縮機本体3の吐出口から、圧縮空気が吐出されるようになっている。なお、本実施形態では、駆動源として電動機を適用するものとするが他の動力(内燃機関・蒸気・風力や水力等の自然エネルギ等)を利用する駆動源であってもよい。また、圧縮機本体3は一対のスクリューロータ等から構成されるものを適用例とするが、本発明は、これに限定されるものではない。 First, the configuration of the refueling screw type air compressor in the first embodiment will be described. The refueling screw air compressor 100 (hereinafter, may be simply referred to as "compressor 100") is supplied with electric power via the inverter 5, and when the compressor body 3 is driven by the electric motor 4 as a drive source, Dust in the atmosphere is removed by the suction filter 1, and the atmospheric air is sucked into the compressor main body 3 through the suction throttle valve 2. The sucked atmospheric air is boosted by the compressor main body 3, and when a predetermined pressure is reached, the compressed air is discharged from the discharge port of the compressor main body 3. In the present embodiment, the electric motor is applied as the drive source, but it may be a drive source that uses other power (internal combustion engine, steam, natural energy such as wind power, hydraulic power, etc.). Further, the compressor main body 3 is applied to a compressor body 3 composed of a pair of screw rotors and the like, but the present invention is not limited thereto.
 また、本実施形態では、定置型の圧縮機を例として説明するが、本発明は、可搬型の圧縮機や、牽引用の車輪等を備える移動型の圧縮機(所謂「ポータブルコンプレッサ」と称する場合もある。)を適用してもよい。 Further, in the present embodiment, a stationary compressor will be described as an example, but the present invention provides a portable compressor, a mobile compressor provided with wheels for traction, and the like (referred to as a so-called "portable compressor"). In some cases) may be applied.
 圧縮機本体3からの圧縮空気は、油分離タンク6へと流入し、圧縮空気と潤滑油とを分離させる。油分離タンク6からの圧縮空気は、アフタークーラ8で冷却された後、ユーザ使用設備へと送り込まれる。なお、アフタークーラ8への冷媒はインバータ制御(不図示)の空冷ファン24による冷却風とするが、水冷式のクーラであってもよい。 The compressed air from the compressor body 3 flows into the oil separation tank 6 to separate the compressed air and the lubricating oil. The compressed air from the oil separation tank 6 is cooled by the aftercooler 8 and then sent to the equipment used by the user. The refrigerant for the aftercooler 8 is cooling air from an inverter-controlled (not shown) air-cooling fan 24, but a water-cooled cooler may also be used.
 他方、油分離タンク6からの潤滑油は、その油温が温度調整弁10の閾値よりも低い場合は、温度調整弁10からオイルフィルタ12を経由し、圧縮機本体3へと潤滑油を給油する。油温が閾値よりも高い場合は、温度調整弁10からオイルクーラ11側に流れ、所定の温度範囲になるよう潤滑油を冷却し、オイルフィルタ12を経て、圧縮機本体3へと潤滑油を給油する。 On the other hand, when the oil temperature of the lubricating oil from the oil separation tank 6 is lower than the threshold value of the temperature control valve 10, the lubricating oil is supplied from the temperature control valve 10 to the compressor main body 3 via the oil filter 12. To do. When the oil temperature is higher than the threshold value, it flows from the temperature control valve 10 to the oil cooler 11 side, cools the lubricating oil so as to reach a predetermined temperature range, passes through the oil filter 12, and supplies the lubricating oil to the compressor main body 3. Refuel.
 物理量を検出する装置としては、圧縮機本体3の出口直後に取付けられた吐出温度センサ17と、ユニット出口に取り付けられた吐出ライン圧力センサ18と、電動機4又はインバータ5の電源ラインに取付けられた電流検出器19(電流センサ)が取り付けられている。各種センサからの出力値は、制御装置13によって演算処理が行われ、処理に応じた内容を表示部14に表示する構成となっている。 The devices for detecting the physical quantity include a discharge temperature sensor 17 attached immediately after the outlet of the compressor body 3, a discharge line pressure sensor 18 attached to the outlet of the unit, and a power supply line of the electric motor 4 or the inverter 5. A current detector 19 (current sensor) is attached. The output values from the various sensors are subjected to arithmetic processing by the control device 13, and the contents corresponding to the processing are displayed on the display unit 14.
 また、圧縮機100は、通信アンテナ22aと、位置情報アンテナ22bを備える。通信アンテナ22aは通信ネットワークを介して後述するクラウドサーバ(管理サーバ等)と通信を行う通信手段である。本例では無線を適用するものとするが、有線であってもよい。 Further, the compressor 100 includes a communication antenna 22a and a position information antenna 22b. The communication antenna 22a is a communication means for communicating with a cloud server (management server or the like) described later via a communication network. In this example, wireless is applied, but it may be wired.
 通信アンテナ22aは、圧縮機100の位置情報を送信し、圧縮機100の位置に対応する気象情報をクラウド上のサーバから受信する。気象情報は、圧縮機100(空気圧縮機)の位置で予想される気温、湿度及び気圧のうち少なくとも1つを含む。これにより、圧縮機100は、気温測定用の温度センサ、湿度センサ、気圧測定用の圧力センサ等を備える必要がなく、構成を複雑にすることなく且つコストを低減することができる。なお、気象情報が広範囲の情報の平均的な気象を示すものである場合には、圧縮機100に気温や気圧を計測する検出装置を備え、これら検出装置の検出値と気象情報とを比較して、圧縮機100が位置する特定点の情報を補正する等を行ってもよい。 The communication antenna 22a transmits the position information of the compressor 100, and receives the weather information corresponding to the position of the compressor 100 from the server on the cloud. Meteorological information includes at least one of the temperature, humidity and barometric pressure expected at the location of compressor 100 (air compressor). As a result, the compressor 100 does not need to be provided with a temperature sensor for measuring temperature, a humidity sensor, a pressure sensor for measuring atmospheric pressure, and the like, and the configuration can be not complicated and the cost can be reduced. When the weather information indicates the average weather of a wide range of information, the compressor 100 is provided with a detection device for measuring the temperature and atmospheric pressure, and the detection values of these detection devices are compared with the weather information. Then, the information of the specific point where the compressor 100 is located may be corrected.
 位置情報アンテナ22bは、外部から発信される位置測定信号を受信するアンテナである。本例では、圧縮機100の位置を特定するためにGNSS(Global Navigation Satellite System)による衛星を用いた位置測定方法と、地上基地局による無線通信網(例えば、3G・4G・LTE・5G等の携帯回線網、Wifi(登録商標)等)の基地局といった通信拠点や端末等といった通信経路を利用した位置測定方法を用いるものとする。なお、本発明はこれらの種々の位置測定方法の1つのみを用いて実施することもできる。 The position information antenna 22b is an antenna that receives a position measurement signal transmitted from the outside. In this example, a position measurement method using a satellite by GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) to specify the position of the compressor 100, and a wireless communication network by a ground base station (for example, 3G, 4G, LTE, 5G, etc.) A position measurement method using a communication path such as a communication base such as a mobile line network or a base station of Wifi (registered trademark) or a terminal or the like shall be used. The present invention can also be carried out using only one of these various position measurement methods.
 位置情報アンテナ22bは、測位用電波の発信元(例えば、衛星、基地局等)の位置情報を含む位置信号を受信する(地上基地局等や航空機等を中継基地局とする場合には、所定の時間間隔で、位置情報アンテナ22bを介して、圧縮機100側から位置情報の取得要求をするようにしてもよい。)。 The position information antenna 22b receives a position signal including the position information of the source of the positioning radio wave (for example, a satellite, a base station, etc.) (when a ground base station or an aircraft is used as a relay base station, it is predetermined. The position information acquisition request may be made from the compressor 100 side via the position information antenna 22b at the time interval of (1).
 GNSSとしては、例えば、GPS、GLONASS、GALILEO、BDS、QZSS等が適用できる(なお、GNSSには、RNSS(地域航法衛星システム)を含むものとする。)。地上無線通信網としては、例えば、可搬型携帯端末の公衆無線通信網(3G、4G、LTE、5G及びPHS等)である。また、Wifi(登録商標)等の中距離無線通信規格に準拠したものであれば、設置位置が既知である中継端末等でも適用できる(例えば、圧縮機100が位置する場所で作業する使用者の携帯端末情報を圧縮機100の位置情報として利用してもよい)。更には、LORAN(long Range Navigator)を適用することも可能である。圧縮機100を船舶等に設置する場合等には、船舶の運行システムから位置情報取得し、利活用することも期待できる。 As GNSS, for example, GPS, GLONASS, GALILEO, BDS, QZSS, etc. can be applied (Note that GNSS includes RNSS (Regional Navigation Satellite System)). The terrestrial wireless communication network is, for example, a public wireless communication network (3G, 4G, LTE, 5G, PHS, etc.) of a portable mobile terminal. Further, as long as it conforms to a medium-range wireless communication standard such as Wifi (registered trademark), it can be applied to a relay terminal or the like whose installation position is known (for example, a user who works at a place where the compressor 100 is located). The mobile terminal information may be used as the position information of the compressor 100). Furthermore, it is also possible to apply LORAN (long Range Navigator). When the compressor 100 is installed on a ship or the like, it can be expected that the position information is acquired from the operation system of the ship and utilized.
 なお、地上情報拠点とは、定置型の基地局に限らず、位置を特定可能な航空機、飛行船、バルーン及び/又はドローン等の浮遊体に設置した基地局や、地下設置物などを含むものとする。 The ground information base is not limited to a stationary base station, but includes base stations installed on floating bodies such as aircraft, airships, balloons and / or drones whose positions can be specified, and underground installations.
 制御装置13は、後述する各機能部によって通信ネットワークを介したクラウドサーバとの情報通信及び圧縮機100の位置情報の取得・外部送受信などを行うようになっている。 The control device 13 is configured to perform information communication with a cloud server via a communication network, acquisition of position information of the compressor 100, external transmission / reception, etc. by each functional unit described later.
 制御装置13は、位置情報アンテナ22bで受信した位置信号から圧縮機100の位置を特定し、通信アンテナ22aで受信した圧縮機100の位置に対応する気象情報に基づいて圧縮機100を制御する。これにより、圧縮機100の位置に対応する気象情報の取得を容易とし、気象情報に応じた制御を行うことができる。また、制御装置13は、位置信号によって得られた緯度・経度及びその近傍の気象情報(特定の緯度・経度等から半径数メートルから数キロメートルに対応する領域の気象情報を含む。)に基づいて、予めそれらに対応する標高等を得、標高差による気圧差を制御に利用することができるようになっている。具体的には、座標と標高の対応を示すテーブル、マップ、リスト或いはこれの組み合わせから標高を得、演算によって海面気圧から当該標高に対応する気圧を得たり、標高に対応する気圧を示すマップやリストから当該標高に対応する気圧を得たりする等を行う。標高及びそれに対応する気圧は、後述するサーバ装置から取得するようにしてもよい。 The control device 13 identifies the position of the compressor 100 from the position signal received by the position information antenna 22b, and controls the compressor 100 based on the weather information corresponding to the position of the compressor 100 received by the communication antenna 22a. This facilitates the acquisition of weather information corresponding to the position of the compressor 100, and can perform control according to the weather information. Further, the control device 13 is based on the latitude / longitude obtained by the position signal and the weather information in the vicinity thereof (including the weather information in the region corresponding to a radius of several meters to several kilometers from a specific latitude / longitude or the like). , The altitude and the like corresponding to them can be obtained in advance, and the pressure difference due to the altitude difference can be used for control. Specifically, the altitude is obtained from a table, map, list or a combination thereof showing the correspondence between the coordinates and the altitude, and the atmospheric pressure corresponding to the altitude is obtained from the sea level pressure by calculation, or the map showing the atmospheric pressure corresponding to the altitude. Obtain the atmospheric pressure corresponding to the altitude from the list. The altitude and the corresponding atmospheric pressure may be obtained from a server device described later.
 (制御装置の構成)
 次に、図2、図3を用いて、本実施形態の制御装置13の構成を説明する。図2に、制御装置13のハードウェア構成を示し、図3に、制御装置13の機能構成を模式的に示す。
(Control device configuration)
Next, the configuration of the control device 13 of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3. FIG. 2 shows the hardware configuration of the control device 13, and FIG. 3 schematically shows the functional configuration of the control device 13.
 図2に示すように、制御装置13は、一例として、プロセッサとしてのCPU131(Central Processing Unit)、不揮発性メモリとしてのROM132a(Read Only Memory)、揮発性メモリとしてのRAM132b(Random Access Memory)、記憶装置133、I/F(Interface)としての入出力回路134等から構成される。なお、入出力回路134は、例えば、入力バッファ、出力バッファ、プルアップ抵抗、プルダウン抵抗等から構成される。 As shown in FIG. 2, as an example, the control device 13 includes a CPU 131 (Central Processing Unit) as a processor, a ROM 132a (Read Only Memory) as a non-volatile memory, a RAM 132b (Random Access Memory) as a volatile memory, and a storage. It is composed of a device 133, an input / output circuit 134 as an I / F (Interface), and the like. The input / output circuit 134 is composed of, for example, an input buffer, an output buffer, a pull-up resistor, a pull-down resistor, and the like.
 CPU131は、ROM132aに記憶されたプログラムを実行することにより各種の機能を実現する。即ち図3に示すように、制御装置13は、CPU131と、メモリ132に記憶されたプログラムとの協働によって各制御機能部を実現する。なお、本発明を適用するにあたっては、制御装置13の一部の機能をアナログで構成することも可能である。 The CPU 131 realizes various functions by executing the program stored in the ROM 132a. That is, as shown in FIG. 3, the control device 13 realizes each control function unit by the cooperation between the CPU 131 and the program stored in the memory 132. In applying the present invention, it is also possible to configure some functions of the control device 13 in analog.
 圧縮機制御部1321は、上述した圧縮機100の各種センサ値の管理や、それに基づくインバータ5の周波数指令値の演算や出力、各種弁体の制御といった圧縮機100の稼働に関する制御を行う機能部である。
  通信制御部1322は、通信アンテナ22aを介して管理サーバ23aと通信を行う機能部である。位置情報制御部1323は、例えば、衛星からの位置信号Sigを受信して圧縮機100の位置を演算によって特定したり、基地局の位置情報を受信或いは基地局サーバ装置(不図示)を介して受信した圧縮機100の位置情報を基地局から受信したりする機能部である。通信のタイミングは、一定時間(秒・分・時・日・月等)毎でもよいし、圧縮機100の使用者や管理者が任意や種々の業務イベントを契機として取得する方式でもよい。例えば、定置型の圧縮機であれば、原則として位置が定点となる時間が長い傾向があるため、日や月単位で位置情報を取得するようにしてもよい。他方、可搬型や移動型の圧縮機の場合は、秒・分・時等比較的リアルタイムの位置情報取得が好ましいともいえる。或いは圧縮機の起動時に位置情報を取得するようにしてもよい。
  また、制御装置13は、読み書き可能な記憶装置133を備え、位置情報Info1や各種の運転設定値や稼働スケジュール等の運転情報Info2を記憶する。記憶装置133は、例えば、半導体記憶装置やディスク装置から実現される。これらの記憶情報は、タッチパネル等の入出力インターフェースを有する表示部14を介したユーザ操作や、通信アンテナ22a及び位置情報アンテナ22bを介した入力によって取得される。
  なお、本実施形態では、制御装置13が圧縮機100に固定された操作基盤であるものとして説明するが、本発明はこれに限定するものではなく、制御装置13を可搬型端末とし、インターネット、Wifi(登録商標)等の中距離無線規格、Bluetooth(登録商標)等の近距離無線規格等を介して無線通信を行うように構成することもできる。また、有線で可搬型端末と通信するように構成してもよい。
The compressor control unit 1321 is a functional unit that controls the operation of the compressor 100, such as managing various sensor values of the compressor 100 described above, calculating and outputting frequency command values of the inverter 5 based on the sensor values, and controlling various valve bodies. Is.
The communication control unit 1322 is a functional unit that communicates with the management server 23a via the communication antenna 22a. The position information control unit 1323 receives, for example, the position signal Sigma from the satellite to specify the position of the compressor 100 by calculation, receives the position information of the base station, or via a base station server device (not shown). It is a functional unit that receives the received position information of the compressor 100 from the base station. The timing of communication may be every fixed time (seconds, minutes, hours, days, months, etc.), or may be a method in which the user or administrator of the compressor 100 arbitrarily acquires various business events as a trigger. For example, in the case of a stationary compressor, as a general rule, the position tends to be a fixed point for a long time, so that the position information may be acquired on a daily or monthly basis. On the other hand, in the case of a portable or mobile compressor, it can be said that it is preferable to acquire position information in relatively real time such as seconds, minutes, and hours. Alternatively, the position information may be acquired when the compressor is started.
Further, the control device 13 includes a readable / writable storage device 133, and stores the position information Info1 and the operation information Info2 such as various operation setting values and operation schedules. The storage device 133 is realized from, for example, a semiconductor storage device or a disk device. These stored information are acquired by user operation via a display unit 14 having an input / output interface such as a touch panel, or by input via a communication antenna 22a and a position information antenna 22b.
In the present embodiment, the control device 13 will be described as an operation base fixed to the compressor 100, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the control device 13 is a portable terminal, and the Internet. It can also be configured to perform wireless communication via a medium-range wireless standard such as Wifi (registered trademark), a short-range wireless standard such as Bluetooth (registered trademark), or the like. Further, it may be configured to communicate with the portable terminal by wire.
 次いで、クラウド23の構成例として、管理サーバ23a及び気象情報サーバ23bを説明する。管理サーバ23aは気象情報サーバ23bから所定地域における時系列の気象情報を取得する。詳細には、管理サーバ23aは、気象情報として、例えば、気象予報データである、現在から将来(過去分を含んでもよい)の気象情報を所定時間間隔或いは気象情報が変化したときなど所定のタイミングで更新取得する。気象情報には、例えば、天候、気温、湿度、気圧等を含む。管理サーバ23aは、圧縮機100からの通信ネットワークを介した要求に対し、気象情報を送信するようになっている。
  また、送信する気象情報は、管理サーバ23aが保持する全地域の全部又は一部の気象情報であってもよいし、要求をした圧縮機100に関連する地域の気象情報の全部又は一部の気象情報であってもよい。即ち前者の場合、全地域の気象情報から関連する地域の気象情報を抽出する処理を圧縮機100で行い、後者の場合、管理サーバ23aが、圧縮機100の要求とともに圧縮機100が保持する位置情報を受信し、当該位置情報から圧縮機100の現在地を中心とした地域の気象情報(地点気象情報)のみを送信する。本実施形態では、後者を例として説明する。
Next, the management server 23a and the weather information server 23b will be described as a configuration example of the cloud 23. The management server 23a acquires time-series weather information in a predetermined area from the weather information server 23b. Specifically, the management server 23a uses the weather forecast data, for example, weather information from the present to the future (which may include past data) at a predetermined time interval or at a predetermined timing such as when the weather information changes. Get updated with. Meteorological information includes, for example, weather, temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, and the like. The management server 23a transmits weather information in response to a request from the compressor 100 via the communication network.
Further, the weather information to be transmitted may be all or part of the weather information of all areas held by the management server 23a, or all or part of the weather information of the area related to the requested compressor 100. It may be weather information. That is, in the former case, the compressor 100 performs a process of extracting the weather information of the related area from the weather information of the entire area, and in the latter case, the management server 23a holds the position held by the compressor 100 together with the request of the compressor 100. The information is received, and only the weather information (point weather information) of the area centered on the current location of the compressor 100 is transmitted from the position information. In this embodiment, the latter will be described as an example.
 地点気象情報Info3は、例えば、対応する天候、気温、湿度及び気圧に関する情報を含み又これらを所定間隔(数時間おき等)に時系列で構成するようになっている。地点気象情報Info3は、一例として、RAM132bに一時的に記憶されるものとするが、記憶装置133に保存するようにしてもよい。 The point weather information Info3 includes, for example, information on the corresponding weather, temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure, and is configured in chronological order at predetermined intervals (every few hours, etc.). As an example, the point weather information Info3 is temporarily stored in the RAM 132b, but may be stored in the storage device 133.
 次いで、以上の構成による圧縮機100の運転制御及び運用方法について述べる。 Next, the operation control and operation method of the compressor 100 based on the above configuration will be described.
 (運転制御1)
  圧縮機100を設置する位置の標高が高い場合には、気圧も低下する。例えば、設置位置が標高1000mであれば、その気圧は、標高0mの気圧1013hPaよりも約100hPa低い913hPaとなる。仮に圧縮機100の吐出圧力を0.7MPaとした場合、標高1000mで0.7MPaの圧縮空気をえるには、約100hPa分昇圧させるための動力増加が必要ともいえる。例えば、電動機4、インバータ5及び圧縮機本体3等の定格を超えて運転する場合には、機器保守の面から好ましくない場合もあるであろう。そこで、圧縮機制御部は、標高に応じた周辺気圧差を考慮して、定格回転数内での運転を行う制御等の回転数補正制御等を実行するようになっている。なお、圧縮機制御部1321が、設定入力値が0.7MPaであるときに、標高0m時の回転数に相当する標高1000mでの吐出圧力値に設定入力値を補正して運転するなどでもよい。
(Operation control 1)
If the altitude of the position where the compressor 100 is installed is high, the atmospheric pressure also drops. For example, if the installation position is at an altitude of 1000 m, the atmospheric pressure is 913 hPa, which is about 100 hPa lower than the atmospheric pressure of 1013 hPa at an altitude of 0 m. Assuming that the discharge pressure of the compressor 100 is 0.7 MPa, it can be said that it is necessary to increase the power for boosting by about 100 hPa in order to obtain compressed air of 0.7 MPa at an altitude of 1000 m. For example, when the electric motor 4, the inverter 5, the compressor main body 3, and the like are operated beyond the ratings, it may not be preferable from the viewpoint of equipment maintenance. Therefore, the compressor control unit is adapted to perform rotation speed correction control and the like, such as control for operating within the rated rotation speed, in consideration of the ambient air pressure difference according to the altitude. When the set input value is 0.7 MPa, the compressor control unit 1321 may operate by correcting the set input value to the discharge pressure value at an altitude of 1000 m, which corresponds to the rotation speed at an altitude of 0 m. ..
 このように、本運転制御1によれば、圧縮機100が位置する標高を加味した気圧変化(自然要因)による簡便且つ環境を考慮した運転制御が可能となる。例えば、圧縮機100が位置する特定点の気圧に関する情報処理をクラウド23側で動的に担うため、圧縮機100に種々の気象関連センサといった専用部品の設置を低減できることから、圧縮機100のコスト増加を抑止できるし、使用者や管理者が適宜気象情報の処理やそれに伴う圧縮機100の運転制御処理を低減するという効果が期待できる。即ち本実施例は、自然要因・事業要因等を動的に考慮した運用に貢献しえるものである。 As described above, according to the present operation control 1, it is possible to perform simple and environmentally friendly operation control due to the change in atmospheric pressure (natural factor) in consideration of the altitude at which the compressor 100 is located. For example, since the information processing related to the atmospheric pressure at the specific point where the compressor 100 is located is dynamically handled on the cloud 23 side, the installation of dedicated parts such as various weather-related sensors on the compressor 100 can be reduced, so that the cost of the compressor 100 is reduced. The increase can be suppressed, and the effect that the user or the manager appropriately reduces the processing of weather information and the accompanying operation control processing of the compressor 100 can be expected. That is, this embodiment can contribute to the operation that dynamically considers natural factors, business factors, and the like.
 (運転制御2)
  本運転制御例は、地点気象情報Info3から得られる温度から、圧縮機100の保守運転や、空冷ファン24の回転数制御(水冷式クーラの場合はポンプ装置の制御)を行うようにする例である。保守運転としては、高温時の縮退運転等であり、低温時の起動制御等であろう。運転制御例も、自然要因・事業要因等を動的に考慮した運用に貢献しえるものである。
(Operation control 2)
In this operation control example, maintenance operation of the compressor 100 and rotation speed control of the air cooling fan 24 (control of the pump device in the case of a water-cooled cooler) are performed from the temperature obtained from the point weather information Info3. is there. The maintenance operation may be a degenerate operation at a high temperature, a start control at a low temperature, or the like. Operation control examples can also contribute to operations that dynamically consider natural factors and business factors.
 (運転制御3)
  本運転制御例は、地点気象情報Info3から得られる湿度から、圧縮機100の空気乾燥装置(不図示)の駆動制御を行ってもよい。本運転制御例も、自然要因・事業要因等を動的に考慮した運用に貢献しえるものである。
(Operation control 3)
In this operation control example, the drive control of the air drying device (not shown) of the compressor 100 may be performed from the humidity obtained from the point weather information Info3. This operation control example can also contribute to the operation that dynamically considers natural factors, business factors, and the like.
 (運転制御4)
  地点気象情報から所定時間間隔での将来気象情報を得ることもできる。かかる未来の気温、湿度、気圧を考慮して前処理運転、ロード・アンロード運転及び発停運転制御をするようにしてよい。本運転制御例も、自然要因・事業要因等を動的に考慮した運用に貢献しえるものであるし、特に、未来に発生すると予測される自然用に対しても動的に対応するという効果を期待することができる。
(Operation control 4)
It is also possible to obtain future weather information at predetermined time intervals from the point weather information. Pretreatment operation, load / unload operation, and start / stop operation control may be performed in consideration of the future temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure. This operation control example can also contribute to the operation that dynamically considers natural factors, business factors, etc., and in particular, it has the effect of dynamically responding to natural use that is expected to occur in the future. Can be expected.
 以上、第1実施形態による圧縮機100の運転制御や運用について説明した。本実施例によれば、圧縮機100の高機能化(高コスト化や複雑化)をすることなく、個別圧縮機毎の位置に依存する自然要因(周囲環境)や事業要因等に柔軟に対応した制御・運用を実現することができる。 The operation control and operation of the compressor 100 according to the first embodiment have been described above. According to this embodiment, it is possible to flexibly respond to natural factors (ambient environment), business factors, etc. that depend on the position of each individual compressor without increasing the functionality (cost increase or complexity) of the compressor 100. Control and operation can be realized.

[Second Embodiment]
Next, a second embodiment to which the present invention is applied will be described. In the first embodiment, a method of controlling or operating the compressor 100 with respect to the surrounding environment related to natural factors such as weather has been described. One of the features of the second embodiment is a method of controlling or operating the compressor 100 with respect to the surrounding environment relating to an artificial arrangement. Hereinafter, description will be made with reference to the drawings, but detailed description may be omitted assuming that the same elements as those in the first embodiment use the same reference numerals.
FIG. 4 shows the configuration of the second embodiment. One of the features of the refueling screw type air compressor 200 of the second embodiment (hereinafter, may be simply referred to as "compressor 200") is that it is a mobile compressor. The compressor 200 has, for example, a configuration in which the compressor is mounted on a loading platform with wheels 300 and is towed by a vehicle or the like. In addition to the tow type in which the compressor and the loading platform are integrated, the transporting means of the mobile compressor includes a type that is loaded and unloaded on the truck loading platform by a crane or the like and transported.
 クラウド23側の構成は、交通情報サーバ150と、規制情報サーバ151とを備える点を特徴の1つとする。管理サーバ23aは、両サーバ装置から交通情報・各種規制情報等を取得するようになっている。交通情報としては、圧縮機200の待機地点からそれとは離間した他の特定地点までの、例えば、道路地図情報や交通規制(渋滞情報、車線規制情報、高さ・幅・長さ・重量の規制情報、特定期間で通行可能な規制情報等)を含む。各種規制情報とは、例えば、農地・宅地・商業地及びこれらから数メートルや数キロメートルといった近傍の行政上の区画区分等や医療・教育機関といった騒音や排ガス規制等)を含む。 One of the features of the configuration on the cloud 23 side is that it includes a traffic information server 150 and a regulation information server 151. The management server 23a is adapted to acquire traffic information, various regulation information, and the like from both server devices. Traffic information includes, for example, road map information and traffic regulation (traffic jam information, lane regulation information, height / width / length / weight regulation) from the standby point of the compressor 200 to another specific point away from it. Information, regulatory information that can be passed in a specific period, etc.) is included. Various regulatory information includes, for example, agricultural land, residential land, commercial land, administrative divisions in the vicinity such as several meters or kilometers from these, noise and emission regulations of medical / educational institutions, etc.).
 地点交通情報Info10は、圧縮機200から送信された位置情報Info1に応じて管理サーバ23aから圧縮機200に送信される交通情報である。この位置情報Info1には、(ユーザ操作によって)圧縮機200の移動先位置の情報が含まれるものとする。 The point traffic information Info10 is traffic information transmitted from the management server 23a to the compressor 200 according to the position information Info1 transmitted from the compressor 200. It is assumed that the position information Info1 includes information on the destination position of the compressor 200 (by user operation).
 地点規制情報Info11は、圧縮機200の位置周辺に関する各種規制に関する情報を含む。例えば、圧縮機200の位置周辺に病院・学校等がある或いは宅地であるといった場合には、騒音規制がある場合もある。このような人為的な規制や制約に関する種々の情報を含む。 Point regulation information Info11 includes information on various regulations related to the vicinity of the position of the compressor 200. For example, if there is a hospital, school, etc. around the position of the compressor 200, or if it is a residential land, there may be noise restrictions. It contains various information regarding such artificial regulations and restrictions.
 他の構成は実施例1と同様である。以下に、圧縮機200の各種運用方法について述べる。 Other configurations are the same as in Example 1. Various operation methods of the compressor 200 will be described below.
 (運用方法1)
 圧縮機200は、例えば牽引車両であれば、狭路を通行することができない場合もある。よって、圧縮機200から送信される位置情報Info1から、移動先までの経路に関する道路地図情報や交通情報といった地点交通情報Info10を管理サーバ23aから圧縮機200に送信し、移動先までの道のりにおける移動阻害要因を圧縮機200の表示装置や使用者の携帯端末等に出力するようにしてもよい。これにより使用者は移動先への経路を考慮さいた上で地点交通情報を考慮した上での適正な圧縮機200を選択する契機を得ることができる。なお、既知のドライブナビゲーション機能と連動するように構成してもよい。
  本運用方法によれば、社会・環境要因に対して圧縮機200の運用を簡便且つ柔軟に貢献でき、更には、圧縮機200の使用者や管理者の事業要因に対しても貢献することが期待できる。
(Operation method 1)
The compressor 200 may not be able to pass through a narrow road if it is a towing vehicle, for example. Therefore, from the position information Info1 transmitted from the compressor 200, the point traffic information Info10 such as the road map information and the traffic information regarding the route to the destination is transmitted from the management server 23a to the compressor 200, and the movement along the way to the destination is performed. The hindering factor may be output to the display device of the compressor 200, the mobile terminal of the user, or the like. As a result, the user can obtain an opportunity to select an appropriate compressor 200 in consideration of the point traffic information in consideration of the route to the destination. It may be configured to work with a known drive navigation function.
According to this operation method, the operation of the compressor 200 can be easily and flexibly contributed to social and environmental factors, and further, it can contribute to the business factors of the users and managers of the compressor 200. You can expect it.
 (運用方法2)
 上述のように、医療機関や教育機関等では騒音規制がある場合には、地点規制情報Info11を圧縮機200の表示装置や使用者の携帯端末に出力するようにする。これにより使用者に、騒音規制を報知したり、使用者が圧縮機200の最大出力を騒音規制を下回るように設定することができるようになる。
(Operation method 2)
As described above, when there is noise regulation in medical institutions, educational institutions, etc., the point regulation information Info11 is output to the display device of the compressor 200 or the mobile terminal of the user. As a result, the user can be notified of the noise regulation, and the user can set the maximum output of the compressor 200 to be lower than the noise regulation.
 なお、圧縮機200が、予め出力に対応する騒音値の情報を持ち、圧縮機200自体或いはその使用者や管理者によって、地点規制情報Info11の騒音レベルを上回らない出力内で運転する或いは騒音規制の時間帯は停止(自動停止を含む)ように運用してもよい。このように、運用方法2も社会・環境要因に対して圧縮機200の運用を簡便且つ柔軟に貢献でき、更には、圧縮機200の使用者や管理者の事業要因に対しても貢献することが期待できる。 The compressor 200 has information on the noise value corresponding to the output in advance, and is operated within the output that does not exceed the noise level of the point regulation information Info11 or noise regulation by the compressor 200 itself or its user or manager. It may be operated so as to stop (including automatic stop) during the time zone. In this way, the operation method 2 can easily and flexibly contribute to the operation of the compressor 200 with respect to social and environmental factors, and further contribute to the business factors of the users and managers of the compressor 200. Can be expected.
  このように本実施例によれば、圧縮機200の位置に関連する人為的な情報に対応して柔軟に圧縮機200を運用することができる。 As described above, according to the present embodiment, the compressor 200 can be flexibly operated in response to artificial information related to the position of the compressor 200.
 以上、本発明を実施するための実施例について説明したが、本発明は上記種々の例に限定されるものではなく、その趣旨を逸脱しない範囲で種々の変更が可能である。例えば、第1実施形態と第2実施形態の全部又は一部を適用することも可能であるし、これらに他の構成を置換する等も可能である。 Although the examples for carrying out the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned various examples, and various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention. For example, it is possible to apply all or a part of the first embodiment and the second embodiment, and it is also possible to replace other configurations with these.
 また、自然要因に関する周囲環境として、地点気象情報Info3を適用する例を説明したが、本発明はこれに限定されるものではなく、地震等に災害に関する情報を含め、これに対応する制御や運用(自動緊急停止等)を実行するようにしてもよい。更には、波の高さ、水温、風速・風向といった情報を含め制御や運用を実行するようにしてもよい。例えば、船舶に搭載される流体機械の運用には考慮するべき情報といえる。 In addition, an example of applying the point meteorological information Info3 as the surrounding environment related to natural factors has been described, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the present invention includes information related to disasters such as earthquakes, and controls and operations corresponding thereto. (Automatic emergency stop, etc.) may be executed. Further, control and operation may be executed including information such as wave height, water temperature, wind speed / direction. For example, it can be said that this information should be taken into consideration when operating a fluid machine mounted on a ship.
 また、人為的要因に関する周囲環境として、地点交通情報Info10や地点規制情報Info11を適用する例を説明したが、本発明はこれに限定されるものではなく、他の規制や制約に関する情報を適用することも可能である。例えば、位置情報Info1と、県、市、町といった情報を対応付けることで、地域毎の圧縮機100或いは200の分散状況を把握することができる。更には、これを時系列(周・月・年等)で記録することで、圧縮機等の流体機械の分散傾向を把握する等に利用することも期待できる。 Further, an example of applying the point traffic information Info10 and the point regulation information Info11 as the surrounding environment regarding anthropogenic factors has been described, but the present invention is not limited to this, and information on other regulations and restrictions is applied. It is also possible. For example, by associating the location information Info1 with information such as prefectures, cities, and towns, it is possible to grasp the distribution status of the compressors 100 or 200 for each region. Furthermore, by recording this in chronological order (week, month, year, etc.), it can be expected to be used for grasping the dispersion tendency of fluid machines such as compressors.
 また、通信アンテナ22aは、例えば、増幅器、変復調器等から構成される送受信機を含むモジュールであってもよいが、制御装置13が送受信機を含むようにしてもよい。また、位置情報アンテナ22bは、GNSS受信機を含むモジュールであってもよいが、制御装置13がGNSS受信機を含むようにしてもよい。 Further, the communication antenna 22a may be a module including a transmitter / receiver composed of, for example, an amplifier, a modulator / demodulator, etc., but the control device 13 may include a transmitter / receiver. Further, the position information antenna 22b may be a module including a GNSS receiver, but the control device 13 may include a GNSS receiver.
 また、上記実施例では流体機械として気体圧縮機を適用したが、本発明は、他の流体機械として送風機、換気扇等にも適用することができる。特に、送風機や換気扇の場合、気象情報に流体機械を設置する場所の風量(風の強さ)や風向を含める場合には、これらを考慮して流体機械の運転制御(増風運転や減風運転を制御することも可能である。更には、流体機械の冷却風を取り入れる吸気口等の向きを適宜変更する等の運用を行うこともできるであろう。 Further, although the gas compressor was applied as the fluid machine in the above embodiment, the present invention can also be applied to a blower, a ventilation fan, etc. as another fluid machine. In particular, in the case of blowers and ventilation fans, when the weather information includes the air volume (wind strength) and wind direction of the place where the fluid machine is installed, the operation control of the fluid machine (wind increase operation and wind reduction) is taken into consideration. It is also possible to control the operation. Furthermore, it will be possible to perform operations such as appropriately changing the direction of the intake port or the like that takes in the cooling air of the fluid machine.
