INTERACTIVE MONITORING SYSTEM OF TECHNICAL STATE OF MAIN PIPELINE IN SECTIONS OF ELEVATED PASSAGES Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC G01B11/16 

FIELD: instrumentation.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to pipeline transport and can be used for diagnostics of technical state of elevated passages of main pipelines, as well as automatic recovery of geometry of the pipe of the elevated passage as per diagnostic results. An interactive monitoring system of the technical state of the main pipeline in sections of elevated passages includes a software and hardware complex, a measuring unit with level sensors of stress and strain state and supervisory equipment. In addition, it includes an optic supervision system of pipeline geometry, self-adjustable supports and an additional unit to the software and hardware complex, which is responsible for automatic adjustment of the above supports.

EFFECT: improving information efficiency of the existing monitoring systems of elevated passages of the main pipelines, including reception of the information on real change of pipe geometry of an elevated passage with its simultaneous correction, to maintain the stress and strain state within the specified limits, by means of self-adjustable supports, which will lead to reduction of probable occurrence of accidents.
