Description

FIELD OF TECHNOLOGY TO WHICH THE UTILITY MODEL RELATS

The utility model relates to the field of computing technology, in particular to a computing device for providing information on the technical condition of equipment.

LEVEL OF TECHNOLOGY

At present, due to the continuous growth of competition among manufacturers of products, the issues of reducing the cost of production of the said products, which significantly affects the final cost of these products for the consumer when they are sold on the market, are becoming increasingly relevant, while the final cost of the product at a comparable level of quality is precisely what most consumers are guided by when making the final decision to purchase the products of a specific manufacturer from among the products available on the market.

Reduction of the cost of production of products is achieved in the state of the art in various ways, in particular by minimizing the downtime of production or technological equipment used by the manufacturer in the production of its products, and/or auxiliary equipment involved in the operation of the technological equipment. In order to minimize the downtime of their technological equipment, many well-known manufacturers try, among other things, to optimize the repair or maintenance processes of such equipment using various information devices or systems that are capable of processing in real time the results of monitoring various parameters of the equipment condition, obtained or recorded by various control and measuring equipment, and which are capable of assessing the technical condition of the equipment based on the said monitoring results.

One of the illustrative examples of a computing device for informing about the technical condition of equipment is disclosed in U.S. Patent Application No. 2006100797 (hereinafter US 2006100797), published on May 11, 2006. In particular, US 2006100797 discloses a computing device for informing about the technical condition of equipment, comprising (i) a vibration diagnostics module configured to receive data on the results of vibration monitoring of equipment, which are registered vibrations or registered mechanical oscillations of the equipment and associated with the technical condition of said equipment, from vibration monitoring devices, and (ii) an analytical module connected to the vibration diagnostics module with the ability to determine changes in the technical condition of a given unit of equipment based on said data on the results of vibration monitoring of the equipment and additionally configured to establish a connection with a user device of a maintenance operator with the ability to issue data on the assessment of the condition of the unit of equipment to it.

It should be noted that the use of a computing device for informing about the technical condition of the equipment described in US 2006100797 in relation to a specific unit of the manufacturer's process equipment may lead to the fact that the condition of the said unit of process equipment may be determined inaccurately or unreliably based on the received data on the results of vibration monitoring of the equipment, in particular due to the fact that the vibration diagnostics module allows for the allocation of data on incidents for a given unit of process equipment only based on the results of vibration monitoring of this unit of process equipment, while not taking into account the external signs of the technical condition of this unit of process equipment and/or acoustic signs associated with the technical condition of this unit of process equipment.

In turn, an inaccurate or unreliable result of determining the technical condition of process equipment obtained using a computing device for informing about the technical condition of equipment described in US 2006100797 may lead to the fact that a decision on repair or maintenance of such a unit of process equipment may be made prematurely or made with a delay due to the possibility of forming an inaccurate or unreliable idea of the condition of the said process equipment based on the results of vibration monitoring of this process equipment.

Thus, there is an obvious need for further improvement of computing devices for providing information on the technical condition of equipment, in particular to increase the accuracy or reliability of the result of determining the technical condition of equipment.

Consequently, the main technical problem solved by the present utility model consists in creating a computing device for providing information on the technical condition of equipment, in which the above-mentioned drawback of the known computing device for providing information on the technical condition of equipment, consisting in the possibility of the maintenance operator receiving an inaccurate or unreliable idea of the condition of the equipment, is at least partially eliminated.

An additional technical problem solved by this utility model consists of expanding the arsenal of technical means used to provide information on the technical condition of equipment.

DISCLOSURE OF THE ESSENCE OF THE UTILITY MODEL

The objective of the utility model is to create a computing device for providing information on the technical condition of equipment, solving at least the main technical problem identified above.

The stated problem is solved due to the fact that the proposed computing device for informing about the technical condition of equipment, comprising (i) a vibroacoustic monitoring module, configured to receive data on the results of vibroacoustic monitoring of equipment with the ability to identify data on incidents for a given unit of equipment related to the technical condition of the equipment, in said received data on the results of vibroacoustic monitoring of the equipment, additionally comprises (ii) a video monitoring module, configured to receive data on the results of video monitoring of the equipment and with the ability to identify data on incidents for a given unit of equipment related to the technical condition of the equipment, in said received data on the results of video monitoring of the equipment, and (iii) an analytical module connected to the video monitoring module and the vibroacoustic monitoring module with the ability to receive said data on incidents from them and configured to feed said received data on incidents to the input of an analytical computing model stored in a storage device accessible to the analytical module, for predicting deviations in the technical condition of the said unit of equipment, wherein the analytical module is additionally configured with the ability to establish a connection with the user device of the maintenance operator with the ability to issue data to it about the said predictive assessment of the technical condition of the unit of equipment.

The computing device for informing about the technical condition of equipment ensures the main technical result, which consists in optimizing the schedule of repair or technical maintenance of equipment, in particular due to the increased accuracy of forecasting the technical condition of a specific unit of equipment. The increased accuracy of forecasting the technical condition of a specific unit of equipment is in turn due to the presence of an additional video monitoring module, as well as the use of data on incidents identified by the video monitoring module for a given unit of equipment in the data on the results of video monitoring of equipment, in addition to the data on incidents identified by the vibroacoustic monitoring module for the specified unit of equipment in the data on the results of vibroacoustic monitoring of equipment, to obtain a predictive assessment of the technical condition of this unit of equipment using an analytical computing model, to the input of which the specified identified data on incidents are fed. In other words, the analytical computing model used by the analytical module in the proposed computing device for providing information on the technical condition of equipment allows for obtaining a more accurate or reliable assessment of the technical condition of equipment for a specific unit of equipment, which takes into account not only the data on incidents identified by the vibroacoustic monitoring module for the said unit of equipment in the data on the results of vibroacoustic monitoring of equipment, but also the data on incidents identified by the video monitoring module for the said unit of equipment in the data on the results of video monitoring of equipment, which ultimately allows the maintenance operator to promptly receive, through his user device of the maintenance operator, more accurate or reliable information on the time of occurrence of a critical condition of a specific unit of equipment based on the predictive assessment of the technical condition of this unit of equipment issued by the analytical module to the specified user device, and, therefore, allows the maintenance operator to promptly carry out repair or maintenance of this unit of equipment.

In other words, a computing device for informing about the technical condition of equipment allows for the formation and adjustment (change) of a schedule of repair or maintenance of equipment depending on the predictive assessment of the technical condition of a specific unit of equipment, which in turn allows for the repair or maintenance of a specific unit of equipment to be carried out only when it is really necessary and appropriate, thereby preventing cases of premature repair of this unit of equipment, which lead to an excessive frequency of downtime for this unit of equipment, and cases of belated repair of this unit of equipment, which lead to an increase in the downtime of this unit of equipment.

In addition, the computing device for informing about the technical condition of the equipment provides an additional technical result consisting in ensuring the timely informing of the maintenance operator about critical deviations in the technical condition (i.e. timely informing about the critical technical condition) of a specific unit of equipment by issuing, by means of the analytical module, data on the predictive assessment of the technical condition of this unit of equipment to the user device of the maintenance operator. In this way, the maintenance operator can promptly receive, by means of his user device of the maintenance operator, data on the predictive assessment of the technical condition of a specific unit of equipment, which will allow the said operator to promptly learn about a change in the technical condition of this unit of equipment to a critical level (i.e. learn about the critical technical condition of this unit of equipment) and, therefore, to make a decision in advance to repair or perform maintenance of this unit of equipment or to set a date in advance for the repair or maintenance of this unit of equipment, having carried out all the necessary preparatory measures in advance.

According to one embodiment of the utility model, the analytical module in the computing device for informing about the technical condition of the equipment may be additionally implemented with the possibility of storing data on the predictive assessment of the technical condition of the equipment for a given unit of equipment in a storage device accessible to the analytical module, with the provision of updating statistical data on the technical condition of this unit of equipment, previously saved in the specified storage device, and may be additionally implemented with the possibility of feeding statistical data on the technical condition of the unit of equipment, extracted from the specified storage device, to the input of the analytical computing model used by the analytical module, together with data on incidents identified by the analytical module in the data on the results of vibroacoustic monitoring of the equipment and in the data on the results of video monitoring of the equipment, to obtain a predictive assessment of the technical condition of this unit of equipment.

The additional functionality of the analytical module for storing data on the predictive assessment of the technical condition of equipment for a given unit of equipment in a storage device accessible to the analytical module, with the provision of updating statistical data on the technical condition of this unit of equipment and the additional functionality of the analytical module for feeding statistical data on the technical condition of the unit of equipment, extracted from the said storage device, to the input of the analytical computational model used by this analytical module, together with data on incidents identified by the analytical module in the data on the results of vibroacoustic monitoring of equipment and in the data on the results of video monitoring of equipment, to obtain a predictive assessment of the technical condition of the unit of equipment also contributes to the above-formulated main technical result, which consists in optimizing the schedule for repair or maintenance of equipment, in particular by increasing the accuracy of predicting the technical condition of a specific unit of equipment, which in turn is due to the use of statistical data on the technical condition of this unit of equipment, which essentially characterize the technical condition of this unit of equipment for a specified past period of time, in addition to the data on incidents based on data on the results of video monitoring of equipment and on data on the results of vibroacoustic monitoring of equipment and characterizing the technical condition of this unit of equipment at a given current moment or period of time, in the analytical computing model used by the analytical module to obtain an assessment of the technical condition of the specified unit of equipment.

According to another embodiment of the utility model, the analytical module in the computing device for informing about the technical condition of the equipment may be additionally implemented with the possibility of assigning a maintenance priority to a unit of equipment depending on the predictive assessment of the condition of the unit of equipment with the possibility of issuing data on the predictive assessment of the condition of the unit of equipment to the user device of the maintenance operator depending on the specified priority of the maintenance.

The additional functionality of the analytical module for assigning a maintenance priority to a specific unit of equipment depending on the predictive assessment of the technical condition of this unit of equipment with the ability to issue data on the predictive assessment of the technical condition of the unit of equipment to the user device of the maintenance operator depending on the specified priority of maintenance also contributes to the above-formulated main technical result, which consists in optimizing the schedule of repair or maintenance of equipment, in particular, makes it possible to form and adjust such a schedule depending on the priority of maintenance of a specific unit of equipment assigned by the analytical module, which in turn makes it possible to carry out repair or maintenance of a specific unit of equipment in a timely manner only when this is really necessary and appropriate, thereby preventing cases of premature repair of this unit of equipment, which lead to an excessive frequency of downtime of this unit of equipment and which lead to downtime of other equipment that could fail (break down) during the implementation of the specified premature repair, and cases of belated repair of this unit of equipment, which lead to an increase in the downtime of this unit of equipment.

It should be noted that, depending on the specific embodiment of the utility model and the technical solution disclosed in one of the information sources constituting the state of the art for the utility model and selected as the closest analogue for the utility model, the computing device for informing about the technical condition of equipment according to the utility model can provide at least one of the following additional or alternative technical results: (i) increasing the versatility of the computing device for informing about the technical condition of equipment, (ii) increasing the service life of the equipment unit, the condition of which is predicted using the computing device for informing about the technical condition of equipment, (iii) increasing the safety of using the equipment unit, the condition of which is predicted using the computing device for informing about the technical condition of equipment, (iv) reducing the computing resources and memory resources required to generate messages related to the condition of a specific equipment unit and issued to the user device of the maintenance operator, (v) reducing the number of messages related to the condition of a specific equipment unit and issued to the user device of the maintenance operator, (vi) optimizing the work schedule of the maintenance operator or maintenance operators, (vii) reducing the number maintenance operators involved in the repair or maintenance of equipment at a given infrastructure facility, etc.

The drawing shows one of the illustrative embodiments of the implementation of the system 1000 for monitoring physical objects, which includes the video monitoring subsystem 200, the vibroacoustic monitoring subsystem 400, the technical maintenance subsystem 500 and the computing device 100 for informing about the technical condition of the equipment, which is part of the information support subsystem (not shown) and is the main functional component of this information support subsystem.

As shown in the drawing, the computing device 100 for informing about the technical condition of the equipment is designed with the possibility of establishing communication via the communication network 300 with the video monitoring subsystem 200 and/or the vibroacoustic monitoring subsystem 400 with the possibility of exchanging data with them, wherein the video monitoring subsystem 200 and the vibroacoustic monitoring subsystem 400 are connected to each other with the possibility of exchanging data using the communication network 300. It should be noted that the communication channel between the computing device 100 and the video monitoring subsystem 200 and the communication channel between the computing device 100 and the vibroacoustic monitoring subsystem 400 can be established sequentially or substantially simultaneously, wherein the communication channel between the computing device 100 and the video monitoring subsystem 200 can be established in response to a system request sent by the computing device 100 to the video monitoring subsystem 200, or in response to a system request sent by the video monitoring subsystem 200 to the computing device 100, and the communication channel between the computing device 100 and the vibroacoustic monitoring subsystem 400 can be established in response to a system request sent by the computing device 100 to the vibroacoustic monitoring subsystem 400, or in response to a system request sent by the vibroacoustic monitoring subsystem 400 to the computing device 100.

In addition, as shown in the drawing, the computing device 100 for informing about the technical condition of the equipment is designed with the possibility of establishing communication via the communication network 600 with the maintenance subsystem 500 with the possibility of exchanging data with it. It should be noted that the communication channel between the computing device 100 and the maintenance subsystem 500 can be established in response to a system request sent by the computing device 100 to the maintenance subsystem 500, or in response to a system request sent by the maintenance subsystem 500 to the computing device 100.

It should be noted that the communication network 600 and the communication network 300 can be connected to each other with the possibility of establishing a communication channel for exchanging data between the maintenance subsystem 500 and the video monitoring subsystem 200 and/or the vibroacoustic monitoring subsystem 400.

In one embodiment of the utility model, the communication network 600 and the communication network 300 may represent the same communication network. Thus, in such an embodiment of the utility model, the computing device 100, the maintenance subsystem 500, the video monitoring subsystem 200 and/or the vibroacoustic monitoring subsystem 400 may exchange data with each other using the communication network 300 or the communication network 600.

The communication network 300 or the communication network 600 shown in the drawing may be an Internet network, a cellular network, an Ethernet network, an LTE network, a Wi-Fi network, a 3G network, a 4G network, a 5G network, or any other suitable wireless communication network known in the art, or a wired communication network known in the art.

In one embodiment of the utility model, the system 1000 for monitoring physical objects, in addition to the communication network 300 and the communication network 600, may include, if necessary, one or more other communication networks other than the communication network 300 or the communication network 600, and/or various communication equipment known in the prior art (for example, routers, connectors, servers, etc.) to ensure the possibility of exchanging data or data packets between the computing device 100, the video monitoring subsystem 200, the vibroacoustic monitoring subsystem 400, and the maintenance subsystem 500.

The computing device 100 must be pre-programmed or configured to identify the data streams from the video monitoring subsystem 200 based on one or more unique identifiers of the video monitoring subsystem (for example, the IMEI or MAC address of the video monitoring subsystem) contained in these data streams and previously known to the computing device 100, identify the data streams from the vibroacoustic monitoring subsystem 400 based on one or more unique identifiers of the vibroacoustic monitoring subsystem (for example, the IMEI or MAC address of the vibroacoustic monitoring subsystem) contained in these data streams and previously known to the computing device 100, and the data streams from the maintenance subsystem 500 based on one or more unique identifiers of the maintenance subsystem (for example, the IMEI or MAC address of the maintenance subsystem) contained in these data streams and previously known to the computing device 100. In turn, the subsystem 200 video monitoring, subsystem 400 vibroacoustic monitoring and subsystem 500 technical maintenance should also be pre-programmed or configured each to identify data streams from computing device 100 based on one or more unique identifiers of computing device contained in these data streams and pre-known to said subsystem. It should be noted that unique identifiers of computing device 100 (for example, IMEI of computing device, MAC address of computing device and/or the like) can be communicated to subsystem 200 video monitoring and subsystem 400 vibroacoustic monitoring via communication network 300 and can be communicated to subsystem 500 technical maintenance via communication network 600 when user registers in special software installed on computing device 100 for work in system 1000 for monitoring physical objects. Alternatively, the unique identifiers of the computing device 100 may be sent or communicated to the video monitoring subsystem 200 and the vibroacoustic monitoring subsystem 400 via the communication network 300 and may be communicated to the maintenance subsystem 500 via the communication network 600 upon the initial launch by the user of the special software installed on the computing device 100 for operation in the physical object monitoring system 1000. Thus, any data streams transmitted by the computing device 100 via the communication network 300 and/or the communication network 600 are automatically matched with one or more unique identifiers of the computing device; any data streams transmitted by the video monitoring subsystem 200 via the communication network 300 are automatically matched with one or more unique identifiers of the video monitoring subsystem; any data streams transmitted by the vibroacoustic monitoring subsystem 400 over the communication network 300 are automatically matched with one or more unique identifiers of the vibroacoustic monitoring subsystem, and any data streams transmitted by the maintenance subsystem 500 over the communication network 600 are automatically matched with one or more unique identifiers of the maintenance subsystem.

It should be noted that each physical object (for example, each unit of equipment at an infrastructure facility), in relation to which it is intended to use the system 1000 for monitoring physical objects for diagnosing this physical object or monitoring the technical condition of this physical object, must be pre-registered in the system 1000 with the assignment to the specified physical object of one or more unique identifiers of the physical object (in particular, a unique identifier of a unit of equipment in the form of, for example, the IMEI of the unit of equipment), wherein the unique identifiers of the physical objects must be communicated to the computing device 100 registered in the system 1000, with the provision of their storage, for example, in the local data storage 70 described below.

In some embodiments of the utility model, the system 1000 for monitoring physical objects may include one or more auxiliary or additional servers (not shown) designed to provide the ability to mutually integrate the functional components of the video monitoring subsystem 200, the functional components of the vibroacoustic monitoring subsystem 400, the functional components of the technical maintenance subsystem 500, and the functional components of the information support subsystem, which includes the computing device 100 for providing information on the technical condition of the equipment.

It should be noted that such image recording devices (for example, video cameras or IP cameras) included in such a video monitoring subsystem 200 can be pre-programmed or configured to automatically register or record a set of equipment images for a specified period of time at specified intervals (i.e., they can periodically turn on and operate to implement their functional purpose for a specified period of time, recording a set of equipment images) or continuously record equipment images in real time (i.e., in real time), while one or more units of equipment, the technical condition of which must be diagnosed and monitored dynamically, can fall within the field or area of view of each such image recording device.

It should also be noted that each of the image recording devices included in the video monitoring subsystem 200 or functionally connected to it, or at least some of them, can have fixed positions in a given area of space (for example, on an infrastructure facility on which equipment is located, the technical condition of which must be diagnosed and monitored dynamically) or can be installed on moving or dynamic objects (for example, on the personnel of the infrastructure facility, on moving elements of stationary physical objects, vehicles and/or the like).

The main functional component of the video monitoring subsystem 200, which essentially allows for the implementation of all the functional capabilities of the video monitoring subsystem 200, is a computing device for video diagnostics of equipment/video monitoring of the technical condition of equipment (not shown), which is part of such a video monitoring subsystem 200.

In one embodiment of the utility model, each video image recorded by one of the image recording devices and transmitted as part of a video data stream to the computing device for video monitoring of the technical condition of equipment, which is part of the video monitoring subsystem 200, illustrates the external appearance of only one unit of equipment (in particular, the external appearance of the components, units, blocks and/or modules of this unit of equipment). It should be noted that such a computing module, which is part of the computing device for video monitoring of the technical condition of the equipment of the video monitoring subsystem 200, can be called an analytical module, a module for video monitoring of the technical condition of the equipment, a diagnostic module, a module for video diagnostics of the equipment, etc.

Thus, the computing device for video monitoring of the technical condition of equipment, which is part of the video monitoring subsystem 200, outputs video monitoring results related to one or more specified units of equipment and containing, among other things, sets or groups of data on abnormal events or incidents detected for the said units of equipment by means of the computing module, which is part of this computing device for video monitoring of the technical condition of equipment, wherein the said groups of data on incidents, which are part of the data on the results of video monitoring, are each put in correspondence with at least a unique identifier of the video monitoring subsystem 200 and a unique identifier of the unit of equipment to which the said group of data on incidents essentially corresponds.

In some embodiments of the utility model, video images of equipment processed by a computing module in a computing device for video monitoring of the technical condition of equipment included in the video monitoring subsystem 200 can be extracted by said computing module from a video recorder (not shown), an intermediate/auxiliary server (not shown) used at least for temporary storage of said video images of equipment, or an external/remote data storage (not shown) used at least for temporary storage of said video images of equipment. It should be noted that in such embodiments of the utility model, the video recorder, intermediate/auxiliary server or external/remote data storage must be connected to image recording devices or a part thereof with the ability to record or save video images recorded by such image recording devices in said functional devices.

It should be noted that the computing device for video monitoring of the technical condition of the equipment, which is part of the video monitoring subsystem 200, can automatically issue data on the results of video monitoring of the equipment in response to system requests of the computing device 100 for information on the technical condition of the equipment, each sent by this computing device 100 to the computing device for video monitoring of the technical condition of the equipment after a specified period of time via the communication network 300. Alternatively, the computing device for video monitoring of the technical condition of the equipment, which is part of the video monitoring subsystem 200, can automatically issue data on the results of video monitoring of the equipment to the computing device 100 in real time when a communication channel is established between them via the communication network 300.

In some embodiments of the utility model, the computing device for video monitoring of the technical condition of equipment, which is part of the video monitoring subsystem 200, can automatically, after specified periods of time or in real time, record or save data on the results of video monitoring of the equipment in a separate information resource, which is part of the video monitoring subsystem 200 and connected with the ability to exchange data with the specified computing device for video monitoring of the technical condition of the equipment, and the computing device 100 can already extract the specified saved data on the results of video monitoring of the equipment from the specified storage device with the provision of their reception via the communication network 300.

Analytical module

The analytical module 50, shown in the drawing as part of the computing device 100, is connected, via the communication bus 60, to the communication module 10, the display module 20, the vibroacoustic monitoring module 30, the video monitoring module 40 and the local data storage 70 with the ability to exchange data with them.

The analytical module 50 can be implemented, for example, in the form of one separate processor, such as a general-purpose processor, a special-purpose processor, and/or the like, wherein such a processor can have both one computing core and a plurality of jointly functioning computing cores. Alternatively, the analytical module 50 can be implemented in the form of one or more processors interacting with each other. In one embodiment of the utility model, the analytical module 50 can be implemented in the form of a rack server installed or secured in a server rack that functions as the housing of the computing device 100. In another embodiment of the utility model, the analytical module 50 can be implemented, for example, in the form of one separate microcontroller or any similar suitable electronic computing device.

In this way, the analytical module 50 is connected to the vibroacoustic monitoring module 30 with the ability to receive from it data on incidents detected by the vibroacoustic monitoring module 30 in the data on the results of vibroacoustic monitoring of the equipment, and is connected to the video monitoring module 40 with the ability to receive from it data on incidents detected by the video monitoring module 40 in the data on the results of video monitoring of the equipment, with the ability to feed all of the said received data on incidents to the input of the analytical computer/computational model for equipment diagnostics stored in the local data storage 70, to which the analytical module 40 can gain access or with which the analytical module 50 can establish communication via the communication bus 60, or in any storage device accessible to the analytical module 50, for predicting deviations in the technical condition of the said unit of equipment, which in essence is a predictive assessment of the technical condition of the unit of equipment or corresponds to a predictive assessment of the technical condition of the unit of equipment. It should be noted that such analytical computer/computational model for equipment diagnostics used by the analytical module 50 to implement its functional capabilities described in this document may be based on a pre-trained neural network or artificial intelligence. It should also be noted that the predictive assessment of the technical condition of a unit of equipment obtained by the analytical module 50 essentially indicates the degree or magnitude of the deviation in the technical condition for a specific unit of equipment (for example, in comparison with the initial technical condition of this unit of equipment, assessed by the analytical module on the basis of data on the results of vibroacoustic monitoring of this unit of equipment and data on the results of video monitoring of this unit of equipment, or pre-loaded in the form of data on the initial condition of this unit of equipment in the local data storage 70, to which the analytical module 50 can access or with which the analytical module 50 can establish communication via the communication bus 60, or in comparison with a pre-set threshold value known to the analytical module 50), which can have both a quantitative value (for example, in the range from 0 to 1) and a qualitative value (for example, no change, minor change, average change, strong change, critical change, life-threatening, etc.).

In other words, the analytical module 50 uses its analytical model to predict the development or change in the dynamics of the technical condition of the equipment for a given or specific unit of equipment, thereby essentially allowing one to predict the period of time or point in time when the given unit of equipment will require maintenance or repair.

The analytical computing model used by the analytical module 50 in the computing device 100 for providing information on the technical condition of the equipment makes it possible to obtain a more accurate or reliable assessment of the technical condition of the equipment for a specific unit of equipment, which takes into account not only the data on incidents identified by the vibroacoustic monitoring module 30 for the said unit of equipment in the data on the results of vibroacoustic monitoring of the equipment, but also the data on incidents identified by the video monitoring module 40 for the said unit of equipment in the data on the results of video monitoring of the equipment, which ultimately makes it possible to carry out technical maintenance or repair of the said unit of equipment in a timely manner, makes it possible to optimize the formation of a general schedule of technical maintenance or repair of the entire set of diagnosed equipment depending on the assessments of the technical condition of the equipment assigned to each specific unit of equipment included in the said set of diagnosed equipment, and also makes it possible to adjust (change) the schedule of technical maintenance and repair of the equipment for a specific unit of equipment or for the entire set of diagnosed equipment depending on the current predicted assessment of the technical condition of a specific unit of equipment.

Thus, the result of the work of the analytical module 50, included in the computing device 100 for informing about the technical condition of the equipment, in the form of a predictive assessment of the deviation in the technical condition of the equipment for a specific unit of equipment ultimately allows for the maintenance or repair of this unit of equipment only when this is really necessary and expedient in view of the possible presence of other units of equipment at the infrastructure facility that may also require their maintenance or repair, thereby preventing cases of premature repair of the said unit of equipment, which lead to an excessive frequency of downtime of this unit of equipment, cases of belated repair of this unit of equipment, which lead to an increase in the downtime of this unit of equipment, or cases of repair of the said unit of equipment in exchange for a unit of equipment with a more critical condition or with a condition dangerous to life.

In addition, the analytical module 50 is additionally configured with the possibility of establishing a connection, via the communication network 600, with the user device of the maintenance operator, which is part of the maintenance subsystem 500, with the possibility of issuing to it data on the predictive assessment of the technical condition of the unit of equipment, obtained by the analytical module 50 for a specific unit of equipment, which can indicate or inform this maintenance operator, for example, of the need to begin the process of maintenance or repair of this unit of equipment.

It should be noted that the analytical module 50 can be pre-programmed to issue data on the predictive assessment of the technical condition of the equipment unit to the user device of the maintenance operator of the maintenance subsystem 500 only if the said predictive assessment of the technical condition of the equipment unit has exceeded, for example, a specified threshold value known to the analytical module 50.

In addition, the analytical module 50 can be configured to send a request to the maintenance subsystem 500 via the communication network 600 to obtain from it information about the work schedules of maintenance operators registered with the help of their user devices in the physical object monitoring system 1000, and/or reports on the progress of work on maintenance or repair of various equipment at the infrastructure facility, with subsequent consideration of the said received work schedules of maintenance operators and/or the said reports on the progress of work when selecting the user device of the maintenance operator to which the said data on the predictive assessment of the technical condition of a unit of equipment will be sent, informing this maintenance operator of the need to begin the process of maintenance or repair of this unit of equipment.

As an alternative or in addition to the above-described schedules of work of maintenance operators and/or the above-described reports on the progress of work on maintenance or repair of various equipment at the infrastructure facility, the analytical module 50 can be configured with the ability to access the local data storage 70 or the ability to establish a connection with it via the communication bus 60 with the ability to extract from this local data storage 70 predictive assessments of the technical condition of equipment assigned by this analytical module 50 to other units of diagnosed equipment at the infrastructure facility and previously saved in the said local data storage 70 under the control of the analytical module 50, with subsequent consideration of the said predictive assessments of the technical condition of other equipment when selecting the user device of the maintenance operator to which the said data on the predictive assessment of the technical condition of a unit of equipment will be sent, informing this maintenance operator of the need to begin the process of maintenance or repair of this unit of equipment.

The issuance of a predictive assessment of the technical condition of the equipment, assigned by the analytical module 50 to a specific unit of equipment, to the user device of the maintenance operator allows this maintenance operator to promptly receive, by means of the specified user device, more accurate or reliable information about the time of occurrence of a critical condition of a specific unit of equipment based on the predictive assessment of the technical condition of this unit of equipment and, therefore, allows this maintenance operator to promptly carry out repair or maintenance of this unit of equipment or to include the specified unit of equipment in the general schedule of maintenance or repair of equipment at the infrastructure facility or in his personal work schedule.

In addition, the analytical module 50 can be further configured to store data on the predictive assessment of the technical condition of the equipment obtained by the analytical module 50 for a specific unit of equipment in the local data storage 70 or any other storage device to which the analytical module 50 can access or with which the analytical module 50 can establish communication, with the ability to update statistical data on the technical condition of the equipment previously stored in said local data storage 70 or said storage device for said unit of equipment. The analytical module 50 can also be further configured to feed statistical data on the technical condition of the equipment corresponding to a specific unit of equipment and extracted by the analytical module 50 from the local data storage 70 or other storage device to the input of its analytical computing model together with the above-described data on incidents corresponding to said unit of equipment for the current moment in time, in order to obtain a predictive assessment of the state of the unit of equipment. Thus, in this embodiment of the utility model, the predictive assessment of the equipment condition obtained by the analytical module 50 for a specific unit of equipment will take into account not only the data on incidents identified by the video monitoring module 30 for the said unit of equipment in the results of video monitoring of the equipment, and the data on incidents identified by the vibroacoustic monitoring module 30 for the said unit of equipment in the data on the results of vibroacoustic monitoring of the equipment, but also statistical data on the technical condition of this unit of equipment obtained by the analytical module 50 in previous periods of diagnostic time for the said unit of equipment and stored in the local data storage 70 or other storage device known to the analytical module 50.

In addition, the analytical module 50 is additionally configured with the possibility of assigning a maintenance priority to a unit of equipment depending on the predictive assessment of the technical condition of the unit of equipment assigned by the analytical module 50 to this unit of equipment, with the possibility of issuing data on the predictive assessment of the technical condition of the unit of equipment to the user device of the maintenance operator depending on the specified assigned maintenance priority.

In particular, the analytical module 50 can take into account the above-described work schedules of maintenance operators, reports on the progress of work on maintenance or repair of equipment at the infrastructure facility, priorities of equipment maintenance assigned by the analytical module 50 to other units of equipment at the infrastructure facility and saved/updated under the control of this analytical module 50 in the local data storage 70 or other storage device known to the analytical module 50, and/or predictive assessments of the technical condition of equipment assigned by the analytical module 50 to other units of equipment at the infrastructure facility and saved/updated under the control of this analytical module 50 in the local data storage 70 or other storage device known to the analytical module 50, when assigning a maintenance priority to a specific unit of equipment depending on the current predictive assessment of the technical condition of this unit of equipment.

In addition, the analytical module 50 can be further configured to change the priority of the maintenance of an equipment unit in real time depending on (1) the current predictive assessment of the technical condition of this equipment unit, (2) the above-described work schedules of the maintenance operators, (3) the current state of reports on the progress of work on the maintenance or repair of equipment at the infrastructure facility, (4) the current priorities of the maintenance of equipment assigned by the analytical module 50 to other equipment units at the infrastructure facility and saved/updated under the control of this analytical module 50 in the local data storage 70 or other storage device known to the analytical module 50, and/or (5) the current predictive assessments of the technical condition of equipment assigned by the analytical module 50 to other equipment units at the infrastructure facility and saved/updated under the control of this analytical module 50 in the local data storage 70 or other storage device known to the analytical module 50.
