  • Publication number: 20260043715
    Abstract: Disclosed in the present disclosure are a method and apparatus for evaluating a health state of a sintering device. The method includes: acquiring state information of a sintering device, where the state information of the sintering device includes at least one state parameter of the sintering device; and determining a health state of the sintering device according to the state information of the sintering device and a preset health state evaluation rule, where the health state of the sintering device is used for indicating intelligent operation and maintenance for the sintering device. It can be seen that by means of the present disclosure, state information of a sintering device is acquired, and then a health state of the sintering device for indicating intelligent operation and maintenance for the sintering device can be determined by using a health state evaluation rule.

  • Publication number: 20250036511
    Abstract: A fault monitoring method and apparatus for a sintering device are provided. The method comprises: acquiring state monitoring information and state threshold information; processing the state monitoring information by using a predetermined state prediction rule, to obtain predicted state information; and processing the predicted state information and the state threshold information by using a predetermined fault evaluation rule, to obtain fault state information, wherein the fault state information is used for instructing to perform intelligent operation and maintenance of a sintering device. It can be seen that, state monitoring information can be processed by using a state prediction rule, such that predicted state information is obtained; and the predicted state information and state threshold information are then comprehensively processed by means of a fault evaluation rule, such that fault state information is used for instructing to perform intelligent operation and maintenance of a sintering device.

  • Patent number: 11199471
    Abstract: A system for testing aerodynamic characteristics of a high-speed moving vehicle-bridge system and subsidiary facilities thereof under a crosswind includes a vehicle model, a starting mechanism, a buffer mechanism, a wind tunnel test section and guide rails. The guide rails pass through the wind tunnel test section; the starting mechanism and the buffer mechanism are separately located at both ends of the guide rails. The guide rails include an acceleration section and a deceleration section. The starting mechanism is located in the acceleration section, and the buffer mechanism is located in the deceleration section; the vehicle model starts to run at the starting mechanism and stops at the buffer mechanism; an instantaneous speed of the vehicle model in the acceleration section is not less than 100 km/h. The present invention carries out simulation tests on various infrastructures, their subsidiary facilities and trains through scale models.
