Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of wearable devices, and in particular to a stable wearable device suitable for power workers. Background Art

[0002] At present, a large number of power transmission lines in southwest my country pass through uninhabited areas with harsh environments. Due to the special geographical location, there are all kinds of geological disasters except typhoons, such as earthquakes, mudslides, landslides, etc., which bring severe challenges to the safety of power grid construction and operation and maintenance personnel. At the manual operation site, especially in the process of fault inspection and repair, safety supervision becomes extremely important. These supervisions are not only external constraints, but also exist in the physical condition of the inspectors. Therefore, a wearable device that can protect the life safety of workers in complex environments is needed. On the one hand, it can enable workers to effectively recognize complex environments and their own physical signs; at the same time, it can conduct team communication, intrusion alarms, physiological characteristics detection, etc.

[0003] The most frequently used communication tool for field workers is the walkie-talkie, and most walkie-talkies need to be held in hand, which is inconvenient for workers. However, when existing wearable devices integrate walkie-talkies, antennas and other modules, they are often large in size and slightly heavy in weight. When worn on the human arm, they are often easy to slip and unstable. Especially for workers in harsh power environments who use existing wearable devices when climbing high places, slipping can affect normal use and bring inconvenience to workers. Summary of the invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is that the existing wearable devices, after integrating walkie-talkies, antennas and other modules, are often relatively large in size and slightly heavy in weight. When worn on human arms, they are often easy to slip and unstable. Especially for workers in harsh power environments who use existing wearable devices when climbing, the slipping of the devices will greatly affect the normal use and bring inconvenience to the workers. The present invention provides a stable wearable device suitable for power workers to solve the above problems.

[0005] The present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0006] A stable wearable device suitable for power workers includes a wearable sensor device, which is worn on the human wrist to collect human health data or surrounding environment data, and sends data outward through a wireless transmitter integrated in the wearable sensor device; it also includes a wearable gateway and two fixed ears on the upper part of a wearable sleeve used in conjunction with the wearable gateway; the wearable gateway is a rectangular parallelepiped with ellipses at both ends, the wearable gateway includes a gateway body, fastening belts are arranged on both sides of the gateway body, and the fastening belts on both sides are respectively inserted into corresponding fixed ears and fastened to the upper arm of the human body; a microphone is arranged on the upper part of the gateway body, and voice calls are made through the microphone; an electronic display screen is arranged in the middle of the gateway body, and a wireless receiver is arranged at the lower part of the gateway body, and the data collected by the wearable sensor device is received by the wireless receiver and displayed on the electronic display screen; an antenna is arranged on the top of the gateway body, and the monitoring data is sent to the background monitoring center through the antenna.
