Patent number: 11868117Abstract: An industrial automation component may receive design information associated with an arrangement of one or more industrial automation components in an industrial automation system and identify a first portion of the industrial automation components in the industrial automation system that is unable to interface with a second portion of industrial automation components based on the design information. The industrial automation component may then generate a list of industrial automation components based on the first portion of the industrial automation components and the second portion of industrial automation components, wherein each of the list of industrial automation components is configured to translate a first set of data associated with the first portion of the industrial automation components to a second set of data configured to be at least partly interpretable by the second portion of industrial automation components.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 2022Date of Patent: January 9, 2024Assignee: Rockwell Automation Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Haithem Mansouri, William Sinner, Charles M.

Patent number: 11841699Abstract: An industrial data broker system receives contextualized industrial data from one or more industrial devices that support data modeling at the device level. The received industrial data is augmented with contextualization metadata that defines correlations between the data relevant to an analytical objective, and labels specifying analytic topics to which each data item is relevant. The broker system allows external systems, such as analytic systems, to subscribe to topics of interest, and streams a subset of contextualized device data relevant to the topic of interest to the external system for analysis.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2019Date of Patent: December 12, 2023Assignee: Rockwell Automation Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Bijan Sayyarrodsari, Michael Pantaleano, Ka H Lin, Juergen K Weinhofer, Andrew J Ellis, Kyle Crum, Sujeet Chand, David Vasko, Subbian Govindaraj

Patent number: 11822298Abstract: An industrial automation component may receive a first set of data associated with the industrial automation component, such that the industrial automation component is associated with a first industrial automation system. The industrial automation component may then receive a second set of data associated with one or more other industrial automation components, such that the one or more other industrial automation components are associated with one or more other industrial automation systems. The industrial automation component may then identify one or more similar patterns in the first set of data and the second set of data and adjust one or more operations of the industrial automation component based on the similar patterns.Type: GrantFiled: July 2, 2021Date of Patent: November 21, 2023Assignee: Rockwell Automation Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Subbian Govindaraj, William Sinner, Charles M.

Patent number: 11809159Abstract: Blockchain-enabled industrial devices and associated systems are configured to support the use of industrial blockchains in connection with product and machine tracking, subscription-based industrial services, device lifecycle management, and other functions. Collections of industrial devices can collectively serve as an industrial blockchain system, with multiple such systems within a supply chain yielding an industrial blockchain ecosystem. This architecture can create distributed, decentralized, tamper-proof records of manufacturing statistics for a product, a product's history within the larger supply chain, industrial asset usage histories that can be leveraged in connection with lifecycle management, machine usage history for use in connection with subscription-based machine operation, and other such information.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2021Date of Patent: November 7, 2023Assignee: Rockwell Automation Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Tim S.

Patent number: 11726459Abstract: An industrial control programming development platform simplifies generation of an industrial control program and associated tag definitions by generating at least a portion of the control program and tag definitions based on analysis of digital engineering drawings of an automation system to be monitored and controlled. This drawing-based program generation includes creation and configuration of smart data tags that model and contextualize controller data at the device level for processing by higher level analytic systems. This device-level contextualization can be based in part on inferences drawn from the digital engineering drawings.Type: GrantFiled: June 18, 2020Date of Patent: August 15, 2023Assignee: Rockwell Automation Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Bijan Sayyarrodsari, Subbian Govindaraj, David A.

Patent number: 11709481Abstract: An industrial device supports device-level data modeling that pre-models data stored in the device with known relationships, correlations, key variable identifiers, and other such metadata to assist higher-level analytic systems to more quickly and accurately converge to actionable insights relative to a defined business or analytic objective. Data at the device level can be modeled according to modeling templates stored on the device that define relationships between items of device data for respective analytic goals (e.g., improvement of product quality, maximizing product throughput, optimizing energy consumption, etc.). This device-level modeling data can be provided to higher level systems together with their corresponding data tag values to high level analytic systems, which discovers insights into an industrial process or machine based on analysis of the data and its modeling data.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 2022Date of Patent: July 25, 2023Assignee: Rockwell Automation Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Bijan Sayyarrodsari, Michael Pantaleano, Ka H Lin, Juergen K Weinhofer, Andrew J Ellis, Kyle Crum, Sujeet Chand, David Vasko, Subbian Govindaraj
