Definitions

  • the invention relates to a diagnostic method for a pneumatic actuator at least one piston which is movable in a housing between two end positions and delimits a first work space, the work space having a pressure supply system is connectable, which is under a system pressure, and at least one position of the piston in the housing is recognized.
  • the invention also relates to a diagnostic device for a pneumatic actuator with at least one piston, which in a housing is movable between two end positions and delimits a first working space, which can be connected to a pressure supply system which is under a system pressure stands, with at least one position of the piston in the housing by means of the diagnostic device can be represented.
  • Diagnostic methods and devices of this type use, for example, a pneumatic one Actuator with a piston that moves in a housing between two end positions is and delimits a first work space with a pressure supply system is connectable, which is under a system pressure and with a position transmitter, by means of whose at least one position of the piston can be seen in the housing.
  • Such pneumatic actuators belong to the order of the pressure medium gear and transmit a movement from the surface using a medium that can only be subjected to pressure Drive for output.
  • a gas especially air acts as a medium under pressure designed as a piston drive member and moves it in a cylindrical Housing in the axial direction or it rotates - in the case of a rotary leaf drive - around a rigid one Axis .
  • the output member is, for example, a rotatable shaft, with each axial displacement of the piston in the housing immediately causes rotation of the output shaft.
  • the first working area is depressurized before the start of a switching operation - that is, the movement of the piston from one end position to the other. If the first working space is connected to the pressure supply system, the pressure in the first working space initially rises continuously without the piston being set in motion. Only when the pressure force acting on the piston from the pressure medium exceeds the static friction forces opposing the movement, is the piston accelerated in the direction of the other end position. Starting from this " breakaway point", only small amounts of sliding friction forces counteract the compressive force.
  • the diagnostic method according to the invention is not only applicable to actuators that can be coupled with an element to be actuated (e.g. fitting) in the form of a separate component are, but also in such actuators that with the element to be actuated form a structural unit and as disclosed for example in WO 00/04311.
  • a course of the characteristic pressure is preferred in the context of a diagnosis according to the invention between two operating points of the actuator with a course of the setpoint compared.
  • the pressure profiles from Start of loading up to the breakaway point, from the breakaway point to the stop in the other end position and from this point in time until the system pressure is reached flow into the diagnosis and, if necessary, with the movement profile of the piston be correlated between the end positions. Any deviation from that in question Setpoint can, for example, trigger an immediate visual inspection in progress Operation, as a reservation for the exchange in the next scheduled shutdown or prophylactically for automatic switchover to a redundant system path be used.
  • the difference between the characteristic pressure and a reference pressure is preferably measured with compared to the nominal value, the reference pressure being the static pressure component of the in one second working space is present and the second working space is not included is connected to the pressure supply system.
  • the reference pressure being the static pressure component of the in one second working space is present and the second working space is not included is connected to the pressure supply system.
  • the difference between the respective identification and reference pressures in the work rooms can be used for both directions of operation with minimal construction effort
  • Differential pressure measuring element can be determined.
  • Such measuring elements are general known and for a variety of uses and sizes as inexpensive Mass product available on the market.
  • the miniaturization of this measuring element allows - with the appropriate dimensions of the component in question - its integration into the housing or even in the piston of the actuator according to the invention.
  • the characteristic pressure can be compared with a constant pressure.
  • Generally measuring elements are known, for example, which have an absolute pressure (against a vacuum) determine.
  • the differential pressure measuring element already mentioned can also be used in this sense be used if the connection for the reference pressure, for example with the external environment of the actuator is connected. Integration is also an option here of the measuring element in the piston.
  • a diagnostic method preferably determines for a switching operation a pressure reserve, the pressure reserve being the difference between a maximum value the pressure before the piston breaks loose and the system pressure.
  • This pressure reserve corresponds indirectly - via the pressurized piston surface in a cylindrical Housing of a linear actuator - a power reserve or - via the pressurized piston surface and the effective lever arm in a rotary actuator - a torque reserve as a measure of the load that can generally be set from the rest position: If the static friction of the load exceeds the force or torque reserve of the actuator, then the adjustment process is blocked. It is particularly preferred if the value falls below a minimum Limit pressure reserve generates a warning signal.
  • a control pressure is determined for a control process, the control pressure being the value of the Pressure when reaching a final position of the piston.
  • the characteristic pressure defined in this way corresponds to the pressure required to complete the setting process - for example, to completely opening or closing a valve - is required.
  • An increase in Characteristic pressure can, on the one hand, lead to wear on the sealing and sliding surfaces of the actuator or the posed element and a resulting increase in Point out sliding friction forces.
  • deposits also act on the actuator or on the element that hinder the reaching of the end position - for example In a fluid power plant, a solid load deposited at the valve seat of the fluid - in an increase in the characteristic pressure. Again, it’s especially helpful if a warning signal is generated when a maximum limit signal pressure is exceeded.
  • a warning signal in the context of such a diagnostic method according to the invention can for example in the form of simple - and generally known - optical or acoustic Signal elements are output, which are arranged directly on the actuator.
  • a warning signal can - alternatively or additionally - take the form of an electrical one or have an electromagnetic signal that is arranged on the actuator Diagnostic device on a further away display element, for example on a central scoreboard or transmitted to a control computer for a larger system becomes.
  • a diagnostic device preferably has a digital computing unit in which the comparison of the characteristic pressure with the setpoint is carried out.
  • suitable Electronic computing units are generally known and in different designs Cost-effectively available on the market as mass products. The use is also fundamental analog pneumatic comparators possible. Aside from special cases, This excludes the use of electronic components, for example but not preferred for cost reasons.
  • the use of programmable electronic On the one hand, computing units enable the use of standard components available on the market, on the other hand, the diagnostic device according to the invention can be so special cheap - namely by reprogramming instead of replacing components - for other purposes are used.
  • As a diagnostic device in the sense of the invention in particular also to look at a commercially available digital computer for use is programmed in the manner mentioned.
  • An actuator according to the invention preferably has a reference measuring connection on which by means of a reference pressure measuring element a reference pressure is measurable, the reference pressure being the static pressure component of a pressure present at a second work space and wherein the second work space is decoupled from the pressure supply system.
  • An actuator according to the invention can have an integrated diagnostic device such as that described above.
