    摘要: A monitoring system is described, to monitor the condition of an industrial wiring system provided with a multipolar electric cable with a number of electric conductors having a power and/or data transmission function and enclosed inside a protective sheath, wherein: monitoring conductors, to monitor wear of the electric cable, are arranged inside the protective sheath electrically insulated from the electric conductors; and a monitoring device is operatively coupled to the monitoring conductors so as to detect at least one electric parameter associated with the monitoring conductors to detect the wear of the electric cable and generate corresponding monitoring data. The monitoring device obtains its own power supply from, and/or transmits the monitoring data by means of, the electric conductors of the same electric cable.

    摘要: An automatic monitoring system for monitoring the integrity of a wiring having a number of cables, the monitoring system having an integrity measuring unit designed to be coupled to the electrical wires in order to carry out measurements and check for the presence of faults along the electrical conductors, and a detection unit to detect a voltage present in the electrical wires and to enable the integrity measuring unit in case the voltage has a predetermined relation with a voltage threshold, indicating the fact that the electrical load is not powered by the power supply source. The integrity measuring unit has an impedance measuring circuit to apply a measurement signal to a circuit formed by the pair of electrical wires and to obtain a value of the impedance of the same circuit. The integrity measuring unit checks for the presence of a fault depending on the impedance value.

    摘要: A wiring system is described in particular for the electrical connection between a first and a second carriage of a railway vehicle; the wiring system has at least one mobile wiring having a first and a second end connected to a respective connector designed for coupling to fixed panel elements carried by facing outside walls of the first and respectively, second carriages. The mobile wiring has a single sheath enclosing a number of cables separate and distinct, each designed for a different application, jointly designed to provide complete connectivity in terms of data and control signals between the carriages. The wiring system also provides for a first and a second fixed wiring, each arranged at a respective carriage, and designed to interface electrically with a respective end of the mobile wiring for the corresponding electrical connection to on-board equipment.

    摘要: The present invention refers to the field of industrial automation, with particular reference to industrial robotics and handling in general. In this field, in the present case, cable chains or sheaths for transporting and containing cables, cable bundles or flexible hoses are particularly relevant, said cables or hoses being led to the robotic or handling systems in which they are used. It is well known to those skilled in the art that the cables or hoses transported and housed in sheaths or chains are protected from external agents that could cause abrasions or breakages, but are still subjected to mutual rubbing and rubbing against the inner wall of said sheaths or chains. Moreover, the environments in which said cable means are used are harsh environments, so that the cable sheaths or chains are also subjected to shocks and strong external stresses and said stresses may, and often do, reverberate and cause equivalent damages to the cables or hoses they contain. The object of the present invention is a monitoring and alert system to check the actual state of use and wear of an industrial cable.
