Fault Diagnosis of Mechanized Bridge’s Electrical System Based on I²C-bus and Virtual Instrument Technology

Abstract:

The electrical system fault testing and diagnosis system based on I²C-bus and embedded equipment is proposed. This system is accomplished with the integration of PXI-based computer, field fault testing platform, dedicated interface adapter unit and accessories with software program of virtual instrument and database management and fault guidance system. It can obtain various state parameters of the heavy mechanized bridge by interface adapter unit and corresponding sensors. The dedicated interface adapter unit, that is the core of the hardware platform is composed of chassis, embedded microcomputer controller, I²C-bus data acquisition modules, VPC connection package and military aviation sockets. Because of its flexibility and modular design, it can support different data conversion, for example, analog, digital, and serial, while functioning as an intelligent conversion bridge between field fault testing platform or PXI computer and electrical system of heavy mechanized bridge electrical system. The fault diagnosis software is of hierarchical modular structure with integration of system management control, fault detection and circuit hardware driver modules together with fault repair and diagnosis database. Therefore it provides functions of human-machine interaction, equipment fault detection, fault diagnosis and analysis, as well as repair and maintenance guidance The fault testing and diagnosis system in this work is also featured with handy structure, lightweight, low consumption, large storage capacity, excellent expandability and intelligent inference capability. The system can be used in the online fault testing and diagnosis of similar engineering equipments. So it has important engineering and military application value to the rapid fault testing and fault diagnosis of engineering equipments.
