    摘要: An apparatus and methods are disclosed for monitoring the operation of an electrical power-transfer system and detecting and handling hazardous and undesirable system states. In accordance with one embodiment, an electrical signal is injected into the electrical power-transfer system. During or after the injection of the electrical signal, an electrical property between a first sensor and a second sensor are measured to obtain a measurement. The electrical power-transfer system is determined to be in a hazardous state based on the measurement, and in response to the determination one or more actions are performed to correct the hazardous state.

    摘要: The teaching equipment of an electromechanical system provided by the present invention is used to connect an emergency stop loop of electromechanical equipment, including a multi-stage key switch, an enabling switch and a safety control device. The multi-stage key switch is used to switch between a first mode and a second mode. The multi-stage key switch generates a switching signal during switching. The enabling switch is connected to the emergency stop loop. The safety control device is used to receive the switching signal. The safety control device includes a transient emergency stop circuit and a disconnection loop time. The safety control device triggers the emergency stop loop to enter the emergency stop state according to the switching signal. The emergency stop state includes that the transient emergency stop circuit interrupts the emergency stop loop until the disconnection loop time is up.

    摘要: A method implemented with an equipment computing device associated with safety equipment. The step includes determining that the equipment computing device is in an environment that requires safety equipment to be worn. The method determines environmental data based on the determination that the equipment computing device is in the environment. The method then determines operation metrics of the environment based on the environmental data and then determines a list of predetermined safety gears along with safety-related data that are applicable for the operation metrics. A set of identification indicators including real-time operative information is acquired from each of one or more safety gears of the safety equipment. The method then detects and indicates that the one or more safety gears along with one or more operative measures are present in the safety equipment for operating according to the determined operation metrics of the environment by comparing the acquired set of identification indicators including the real-time operative information of each of the one or more safety gears with each of the predetermined safety gears and the safety-related data of each of the predetermined safety gears. The method assigns one of the one or more safety gears as a primary gear to verify each of the one or more safety gears, the primary gear is communicating with each of the one or more safety gears through any of Bluetooth, Bluetooth mesh, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), Zigbee, Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) and Near Field Technology (NFC) for acquiring the identification indicators including the real-time operative information from each of the one or more safety gears.
