Patent number: 11863560Abstract: An industrial information hub (IIH) and an industrial development hub (IDH) serve as an industrial ecosystem platform where multiple participants can deliver repeatable and standardized services relevant to their core competencies. The IIH system is centered around the development of an ecosystem that creates and delivers value to users—including industrial enterprises, OEMs, system integrators, vendors, etc.—through the aggregation of digital content and domain expertise. The IIH system serves as a trusted information broker between the ecosystem and the OT environments of plant facilities, and provides a platform for connecting assets, contextualizing asset data and providing secure access to the ecosystem. As part of this ecosystem, the IIH system uses a secure remote access architecture to allow users to remotely access data on their plant floor assets via a virtual private network connection.Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2021Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Assignee: Rockwell Automation Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Stephen C. Briant, Nathaniel S Sandler, Scott A. Miller, Ryan P Dunn, Bruce T. McCleave, Jr., Nabin Acharya, Julie Nguyen

Publication number: 20230418266Abstract: An industrial information hub (IDH) serves as a single industrial ecosystem platform where multiple participants can deliver repeatable and standardized services relevant to their core competencies. The IIH system is centered around the development of an ecosystem that creates and delivers value to users—including industrial enterprises, OEMs, system integrators, vendors, etc.—through the aggregation of digital content and domain expertise. The IIH system serves as a trusted information broker between the ecosystem and the OT environments of plant facilities, and provides a platform for connecting assets, contextualizing asset data and providing secure access to the ecosystem. Additionally, the IIH system provides tools and support to OEMs and other subject matter experts, allowing those experts to enable their digital assets for use in the ecosystem. The IIH system reduces the cost and risks for digital transformation of industrial assets.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 13, 2023Publication date: December 28, 2023Inventors: Scott A.

Patent number: 11803175Abstract: An industrial information hub (IIH) serves as a single industrial ecosystem platform where multiple participants can deliver repeatable and standardized services relevant to their core competencies. The IIH system can interface with a work order management system to facilitate automated creation and submission of work orders for maintenance tasks. To this end, the IIH system can monitor real-time data from industrial devices and identify conditions indicative of a performance issue requiring a maintenance action. When such a condition is identified, the IIH system can initiate creation of a work order in the work order management system for tracking and recording of the maintenance task.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2021Date of Patent: October 31, 2023Assignee: Rockwell Automation Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Sneha R Jadhav, Ryan P Dunn, Nabin Acharya, Chirayu S Shah, Anoop Mohan, Stuart Fergusson, Meraj Imani, Taylor Mathewson

Publication number: 20230333822Abstract: An industrial IDE supports development of control programming using an industrial domain-specific language (DSL) that allows control programming to be written using a scripted programming language having features catered to the industrial domain. The industrial DSL can simplify and streamline development of industrial control code relative to using conventional graphics-based control programming formats such as ladder logic, since a script-based industrial DSL can be used to write programming code using fewer mouse clicks relative to traditional control programming environments. Editing tools inherent to the industrial DSL can provide dynamic programming feedback that guides the developer through the process of developing control code. A development interface of the industrial IDE can comprises two editing windows that render the control program in a graphical format and in a text-based format simultaneously, allowing the user to edit the program in either format on the same interface.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 20, 2023Publication date: October 19, 2023Inventors: Andrew R. Stump, Anthony Carrara, Adam Gregory, Lorenzo Majewski, Eashwer Srinivasan, Srdjan Josipovic, Omar A. Bahader, Christopher Edward Stanek, Michael J. Coan, Douglas B Sumerauer, Ryan P Dunn
