    METHOD AND DEVICE FOR DIAGNOSING WEAR OF AN ELECTRICAL CUT-OFF APPARATUS, AND ELECTRICAL APPARATUS COMPRISING SUCH A DEVICE
    TECHNICAL AREA
    The invention relates to a method for diagnosing the state of wear of an electrical switching device comprising a phase for checking said electrical device.
    The invention also relates to a diagnostic device and an apparatus implementing the method.
    STATE OF THE ART
    The methods and devices for diagnosing the condition of electrical devices generally check one or more electrical characteristics by comparing them to a template of values. Among these characteristics, there is generally a voltage, a current or a time mark of a remarkable point of an electrical signal. A diagnostic method of this type is disclosed in patent application EP2584575.
    Other methods determine the wear of contacts of electrical devices such as contacts by evaluating a time between two events or the duration of an event. For example, a time between the command to open or close contacts and the actual time of said opening or closing. A patent application WO03054895 describes a particular way of detecting the wear of contacts of an electrical appliance as a function of the moment of the appearance of a primary current after a command order.

In addition, there is a need for greater precision and levels of certainty for the control of certain electrical devices such as contactors.

    DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS
    In FIG. 1, an electrical device 1 of the contactor type comprises one or more electrical power contacts 2 for supplying or interrupting the electrical supply of a load 3. The electrical contacts are controlled by an electromagnetic coil 4. A circuit 5 of command or control commands the electromagnetic coil 4 to close or open the contacts 2. The circuit 5 also controls a current flowing in the coil during a call phase when the contacts are closed and during a phase for keeping the contacts closed with reduced energy and control current.
    A device 10 for diagnosing the wear of the appliance 1 is associated with or forms part of the electrical appliance. This device 10 receives a signal representative of an electrical quantity such as the voltage or the current of the coil 4 for controlling the contacts. Advantageously, the device 10 is connected in parallel on the coil to receive a voltage signal generated by the coil when the contacts are opened. A current signal flowing in the coil can also be used. However, in a preferred embodiment, a voltage signal is advantageously more stable and easy to use. Thus, the device 10 comprises an analog-to-digital converter 6 connected to the coil 4, a diagnostic module 7 connected to the converter to receive the signal and process the diagnosis of the electrical appliance, and a device 8 for signaling the state. of the electrical appliance, in particular its level of contact wear. The diagnostic module 7 can also be connected and process data with another external or remote processing module 9. In this case, the diagnostic device is in two or more parts. It is also possible that external parts are common to several devices or centralized. The processing module 9 can provide remote signaling of the state of the device. Of course, communications between modules and devices are wired or wireless.
    Thus, checking and diagnosing the wear of the electrical appliance such as a contactor is preferably done by analyzing the voltage of the coil at the opening of said contactor. This voltage is representative of the speed of movement of the movable part of the contactor. In this case, the wear of the contacts results in a reduction in the speed of movement of the mobile part of the electrical appliance.
    The diagnosis of the state of wear of the electrical appliance includes a prior learning phase carried out on a large number of products during the life cycles of said appliances. Advantageously, learning can also be carried out by numerical simulation in order to determine a relationship between the evolution of the descriptors, in particular D1, D2, and a quantity characteristic of the state of the device such as the wear of the contacts. This learning phase makes it possible to acquire learning data which will first be memorized, modeled and stored then loaded on each device to be checked for the control of its own wear. FIG. 2 illustrates a learning phase 11 and the storage 12 of the training data.
    During the learning phase, measurement curves are acquired when the devices are opened in the wear cycle. Measuring curves represent an electrical signal which lasts a few tens of milliseconds, for example 30 ms to 50 ms for a medium-sized electrical appliance. These durations can be very different depending on the size and type of devices. The signal is generally sampled with a few hundred samples, for example between 80 and 500 samples, but a different number can also be used, it will depend on the computing capacity of a processor used in the diagnostic device.
    During the learning phase, electrical devices undergo the quantities of maneuvers to monitor the life of a device. For a contactor, the number of operations can reach for example 800,000 although other values can also be used. As the number of data can be considerable, the evolution of the characteristics of the electrical apparatus is defined by descriptors D1, D2, not very sensitive to temperature variations associated with electrical characteristics and to evolution curves CD1, CD2 of said descriptors during the life of an electrical appliance. To further reduce the size of the training data which will subsequently be loaded into the devices of the devices to be diagnosed, the evolution curves CD1, CD2 of the descriptors are recorded in the form of data representative of line segments of type a + bx. An evolution curve can have several successive straight line segments defining the lifespan of a device. The set of evolution curves of the descriptors CD1, CD2, forms, over the life of a product, a space with several dimensions. Parts, portions of curves or descriptor values are associated with classes of state or wear of the electrical appliance. Given the number of operations of the devices, the measurement curves are not necessarily acquired at each opening. The acquisition of the measurement curves can be spaced regularly by intervals of number of operations or in more relevant ways depending on the evolution of the devices. For example, the number of operations can be more frequent at the end of life and widely spaced at the start of life.
    The learning phase can also provide a used CRU reference curve. This worn reference curve is taken from measurement curves at the end of the life of the devices used for learning. The used reference curve CRU can be an averaged curve over several measurement curves and / or over several worn devices.
    Thus, at the end of the learning phase, the learning data such as the evolution curves CD1, CD2, descriptors and possibly the used reference curve CRU are first memorized, modeled and stored then loaded onto each device for checking its own wear. These training data are common to all the control devices associated with the same type of device. FIG. 3 illustrates a loading phase 13 of training data previously stored in devices to be diagnosed.
    In a first preferred embodiment, a diagnostic method according to the invention comprises:
    a prior learning phase 11 for reading during a predetermined number of maneuvers learning data representative of at least two evolution curves of descriptors representative of predefined characteristics of said electrical signal during the life of said electrical appliance,
    a storage 12 of said training data CD1, CD2,
    the loading 13 of said training data CD1, CD2, and
    - The use of learning data in said phase 15 of control of said electrical device.
    In a preferred embodiment, a diagnostic method according to the invention also includes an initialization phase 14 for determining initialization data comprising a CRP own reference curve of the product to be checked, and the use of said data. initialization in a control phase of said electrical appliance.
    During the control phase, local descriptors DL1, DL2, little sensitive to the temperature variations specific to each device to be controlled are determined during the acquisition of CM measurement curves. These descriptors are of the same type as those which were used to develop global curves CD1, CD2, of evolution of the descriptors, little sensitive to temperature variations. In the preferred embodiment comprising at least two descriptors D1, D2 little sensitive to temperature variations, these descriptors will respectively give global curves CD1, CD2 of evolution previously developed recorded and loaded, and respectively two local descriptors DL1, DL2 specific to each device from measurement curves when the electrical device is opened.
    Figure 5 shows CM measurement curves, i.e. CM-25, CMO, CM25, CM50, CM75, CM100 representative of an electrical voltage signal a control coil at the opening of an electrical device for different operating temperatures -25, 0, 25, 50, 75, and 100 degrees Celsius, respectively. Such a curve can be either a measurement curve CM during the control phase of an electrical appliance as a measurement curve during the learning phase to develop the evolution curves of the descriptors. On these curves, a first remarkable point 20 corresponds to the first change in direction of the voltage variation of the curve CM with an increase then a decrease in relative value. Point 20 is also identified as the first inversion of the signal derivative. Then, a second remarkable point 21 corresponds to the second change in direction of the voltage variation of the curve CM with a decrease then a growth in relative value. At the second remarkable point 21, there is a second inversion of the derivative of the signal of the measurement curves CM.
    FIG. 6 represents a first descriptor D1 for a device and a method according to an embodiment of the invention. This first descriptor D1 corresponds to a surface 22 of the curve CM or to an integral or integration starting at a first point 23 of the curve the measurement CM. Said first point 23 depends on the first remarkable point 20 of the curve, the measurement CM corresponding to a first change of direction of the variation of the signal or change of sign of the derivative of said measurement signal. The first remarkable point 20 being representative of the beginning of the movement of the mobile part of the electrical apparatus. The first descriptor D1 is also a stall representation, that is to say of the magnetic flux at the moment when the force of the contact pressure spring becomes greater than the magnetic force also corresponding to the start of the opening of the part mobile device. Thus, this descriptor D1 determined by an integral whose start depends on the first remarkable point 20 is very sensitive to the wear of the contact pads and very little sensitive to temperature variations. The descriptor D1 is based essentially on the behaviors of the magnetic flux depending on the wear of the contacts. Preferably, the integral 22 of the signal begins at an instant t1 between 10 ms and 0 ms before the appearance of the first remarkable point 20 at an instant t2 according to the dynamic behavior of the electrical device. In FIG. 6, the integral of the signal ends at the end tf of the capture of the signal of the curve CM. In a preferred operating mode, the integral 22 ends when the coil voltage signal is substantially zero close to zero volts, for example, less than 2 volts in absolute value. However, it can be limited to a fixed duration, for example the integration of the signal can last between 30 ms and 40 ms.
    FIG. 7 represents curves of variations as a function of the temperature of a first descriptor D1 for a device and a method according to an embodiment of the invention and of a second remarkable point 21 alone. This comparison shows that the descriptor D1 determined by an integral 22 has an accuracy of less than + - 2% over a temperature range of -20 ° C to 100 ° C while the point 21 alone can reach + - 6%. Overall between 0 and 100 ° C the descriptor D1 is 10 times less sensitive to temperature variations than a descriptor based on point 21 alone.
    FIG. 8 represents an evolution curve CD1 of a first descriptor D1 developed during a learning phase and used in a device and a method according to an embodiment of the invention.
    FIGS. 9 and 10 represent a modeling of a second descriptor D2 for a device and a method according to an embodiment of the invention. The second descriptor D2 corresponds to a positioning or a deviation 24 from a second remarkable point 21 of a signal measured on a curve CM relative to a curve or an initial reference line 25 defined with respect to second remarkable points 21 , P-25, P25, P85 of a new device defined over a temperature range, for example -25 to 85 ° C. Said second remarkable point 21 corresponds to a variation in value such as the change in sign of the variation of a signal on the measurement curve CM, said signal being in decrease then in growth in relative value around the second remarkable point. In the figures and 10 the second remarkable points P-25, P25, P85 of a new appliance are defined with three temperature values respectively -25, 25 and 85 ° C. By using a reference line 25 dependent on a new device over a temperature range and by verifying the positioning of a remarkable point 21 of a device to be checked at this reference curve, the descriptor D2 representative of this difference 24 becomes not very sensitive to temperature since the effects of temperature variations are automatically compensated.
    In FIG. 9 in full view of the acquisition of the measurement and in FIG. 10 in detailed view, the curves CM-25, CM25 and CM85 correspond to curves during learning for different temperatures respectively -25, 25 and 85 ° C. Remarkable points 21 of the new apparatus P-25, P25, P85 in the learning phase for different temperatures respectively -25, 25 and 85 ° C. make it possible to define a reference line 25. This line is preferably linear but it can take different, more complex forms. The difference 24 gives the second descriptor D2 by comparing a value of the second remarkable point 21 of an apparatus to be checked which can be worn to the reference line 25. In FIG. 10, at an instant t3, the second remarkable point 21 of a worn device is detected, this point is then compared to a value 26 of the reference curve 25 around the same time t3. At this instant t3, the value of the difference 24 makes it possible to determine a value of the descriptor D2.
    FIG. 11 represents curves of variations as a function of the temperature of a second descriptor D2 for a device and a method according to an embodiment of the invention and a remarkable point 21 alone. This comparison shows that the descriptor D1, determined by a deviation of a point 21 of a device to be checked with respect to a reference line of points 21 of new devices at different pre-recorded temperatures, has an accuracy of less than + -1 % over a temperature range of -20 ° C to 100 ° C while point 21 alone can reach + - 8%. This mode of determining the descriptor D2 operates a self temperature compensation.
    Descriptors D1 and D2 not very sensitive to temperature, temperature differences or temperature variations, are chosen or selected to have a difference in value of less than 5% between -20 ° C and 80 ° C. Thus, according to one embodiment of the invention, at least one descriptor little sensitive to temperature D1, DL1, D2, DL2 has a difference in value of less than 5% between -20 ° C and 80 ° C.
    FIG. 12 represents an evolution curve of a second descriptor D2 developed during a learning phase and used in a device and a method according to an embodiment of the invention.
    Curves CD1 and CD2 representative of the evolution of descriptors D1 and D2 come from learning curves noted during the learning phase with a very large number of measurements. Then, these numerous values were modeled in line segments to give the evolution curves of the descriptor CD1 and CD2 which will be loaded into the devices to be controlled. These curves shown in Figures 8 and 12 include for example a few segments. The number of segments is not limited, it is advantageously between 1 and
    20. However, other modeling modes are possible, for example by stages or by polynomials. Thus, the loaded training data are representative of evolution curves CD1, CD2 of descriptors representative of predefined characteristics of said electrical signal during the life of the electrical appliance.
    At the beginning of global curves CD1, CD2, of evolution of the descriptors, the descriptors are associated with particular classes CL1 of new or running-in devices while at the end of the curves the descriptors are associated with classes CL3 of used devices . Between classes CL1 and CL3, the descriptors are associated with classes CL2 of devices in normal operation.
    The use of at least two or more descriptors D1, D2 makes it possible to detect with more precision or certainty the state of wear of an electrical appliance to be checked. The descriptors described above depend on electrical quantities. However, other descriptors can also be used by combining electrical quantities and environmental quantities such as the temperature or the horizontal or vertical position of a device. Such quantities can be used to select descriptors according to the environment. The descriptor curves can also be selected according to the particular type of use of the electrical appliance. Parameterization data used to define the type of product or electrical device and the use of said device are also loaded with the corresponding learning data during the charging phase.
    When the learning data is loaded into a device ready to carry out the diagnostic of the wear of an electrical device such as a contactor. An initialization phase makes it possible to store initial data specific to the device to be controlled. Among these initial characteristics, there is advantageously the acquisition of a CRP own reference curve. This reference curve is preferably stored after running in the device corresponding to a predetermined number of first openings and / or when variations in the measurement curve CM become stable.
    Figure 13 shows two examples of curves. A first measurement curve CM new device which can also be a CRP own reference curve, and a measurement curve CM used device which can also be a reference curve CRU used device which can be preloaded. The other measurement curves CM during the life of the device will be between these two reference curves CRP and CRU.
    FIG. 14 shows a flowchart representing an initialization phase 14 for determining said initialization data comprising said own reference curve CRP of the product to be checked on which the control device is installed or associated. A step 30 shows the start of the initialization phase. A process 31 for determining a CRP own reference curve comprises a processing step 32 where consecutive measurement curves are acquired and a step 33 for checking the stability of the curve. The curve CM is recognized as stable after a predetermined number of Nstable measurements, and / or when the measurement curve CM varies very little between two consecutive measurements CMn and CMn-1.
    In a step 34, the measurement curve CM is recorded as an own reference curve CRP. After a minimum number of operations when the differences between the curves after each opening become small. This curve is representative of the electrical characteristics of the voltage or current at the start of the product's life after running in. It remains valid until the end of the product's life. In another embodiment, to further improve the stability of the curve to be recorded, the CRP own reference curve can also be an average of a few stable CM curves. Step 35 represents the product control phase.
    FIG. 15 shows that after the loading phase 13 where learning data corresponding to a type of product representative of said electrical appliance are loaded beforehand, and the initialization phase 14 where initialization data corresponding to said appliance to be checked are memorized, a control phase 15 launches the control when the electrical appliance is opened.
    In this particular embodiment, a step 36 detects the opening of the electrical appliance. When the opening is detected, a step 37 checks the device. This detection can be carried out by a signal external to the device or by the analysis of the measurement signal or of its variation. The control phase is preferably started each time the electrical appliance is opened. However, it can also be launched more spaced apart, for example after a predetermined number of openings. The control can also depend on the lifespan of the device, for example the control can be less frequent at the beginning of life after running in and more frequent at the end of life for more precision.
    FIG. 16 shows a flowchart of a control phase 15 with the detail of a control step 37 according to an embodiment of the invention.
    Said control phase includes:
    in a step 40, the measurement and acquisition of a measurement curve CM at the opening of said electrical appliance,
    in a step 41, the determination of the value of local descriptors DL1, DL2 of said measurement curve CM as a function of values of said measurement curve CM, of initialization data CRP recorded, and of first loaded training data, at least one of said local descriptors DL1, DL2 being a descriptor not very sensitive to temperature differences and depending on remarkable points 20 and / or 21 of said curve, measure CM,
    in a step 42, determining the positioning of the values of local descriptors DL1, DL2 which are not very sensitive to the temperature differences of the measurement curve CM with respect to second learning data CD1, CD2, and
    in steps 43-45, determining a global state class as a function of said positioning values of the descriptor values DL1, DL2 of the measurement curve CM with respect to second loaded training data.
    Preferably, the determination of a global state class includes:
    in a step 43, determining the closest points or deviations between the values of local descriptors DL1, DL2 of the measurement curve CM and the corresponding evolution curves of descriptors CD1, CD2,
    in a step 44, determinations of intermediate state classes CLI as a function of positions closest to the descriptors with respect to said descriptor evolution curves,
    in a step 45, the selection of said global class as a function of the results of said intermediate classes, and
    - In a step 46, the signaling or the communication of the overall wear class of the device.
    In step 43, the determination of the closest deviations can preferably be done in a global manner, for example with a point defined by the values of all the descriptors. However, it can also be done individually on each descriptor or in a mixed or semi-global manner with part of the grouped descriptors and another individual part.
    In step 46, the device 8 for signaling the state of the electrical appliance can display the overall wear class with an indicator or a separate channel for the class value. However, class values can be grouped, in particular a class of device in running-in and a normal operating class can be signaled in a group or together on a single signal.
    According to one embodiment of the invention, the device for diagnosing the state of wear of an electric cut-off device is connected to an electromagnetic coil for actuating the contacts of an electric cut-off device. It includes a processing circuit for implementing the diagnostic method described above.
    An electrical device comprising electrical power contacts actuated by an electromagnetic control coil according to the invention comprises a device for diagnosing the state of wear of an electrical cut-off device connected to said electromagnetic coil for actuating said contacts to put implementing the diagnostic method described above.
    The device and the method can be implemented permanently or temporarily on the device to be controlled. They can also be used on already installed electrical devices. In addition, some process steps can be performed locally near the device and other steps performed remotely or centrally. For example, the acquisitions of the CM curves can be local and the rest of the processing can be carried out remotely for more elaborate calculations. In this case, the processing operations are shared between a local module 7 and a remote module 9 as shown in FIG. 1.
    Several types of charges or job categories are identified during the learning and control phases. The processing of the types of loads is preferably done in a global manner during the learning phase so as to take account of different situations. For example, several devices will be used during a lifetime for different types of charge. The evolution curves of the descriptors will be representative of curves with devices having had different loads or conditions of use.
    The job categories for electrical devices such as electrical contactors depend in particular on:
    - the type of load: non-inductive, inductive, ring motor, cage motor;
    - the type of control: powering up, switching off, starting, braking, jogging;
    - the type of applications: distribution, heating, compressor, ventilation, elevators, pumps, various machines; and or
    - combinations of several criteria.
    It is also possible to identify a particular type of load or use and to characterize the process accordingly. For example for capacitive or other loads.
    Wear classes for each job category are defined by descriptors. They make it possible to characterize the condition of the product and to have an indication of the life of the product.
    A non-limiting list of the main classes can be:
    - Class 1: new product or running in,
    - Class 2: product in use,
    - Class 3: used product,
    - Class 4: end of life product.
    In the preferred embodiments described above, the evaluation of contact wear is advantageously made from the measurement of the voltage of the contactor coil. However, other signals can be used, in particular a signal representative of a current flowing in the coil.
