Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a monitoring and sampling device, specifically a monitoring and sampling device for the environmental conditions surrounding a smart bus shelter, belonging to the field of environmental monitoring technology. Background Technology

[0002] Smart bus shelters, with their intelligent and user-friendly services, not only make travel more convenient but also enhance the travel experience. Utilizing solar power systems, smart bus shelters are energy-efficient and environmentally friendly, representing a future trend in public transportation systems. For bus operations, the change brought about by smart bus shelters lies in the upgrade of dispatching methods. Through the construction of smart bus shelter projects, a leap from purely manual dispatching to dynamic monitoring and real-time dispatching can be achieved.

[0003] Smart bus shelters are typically installed along both sides of city roads, making bus passengers susceptible to air pollution from vehicle exhaust and other pollutants, which can negatively impact their health. Therefore, monitoring and sampling equipment needs to be installed near bus shelters to monitor the surrounding environment and facilitate subsequent remediation and improvement efforts. However, existing monitoring equipment is often left exposed to the external environment without proper protection, making it vulnerable to damage and malfunction. This reduces the equipment's practicality and hinders the progress of addressing environmental pollution around smart bus shelters. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a monitoring and sampling device for the environmental conditions surrounding a smart bus shelter.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A smart bus shelter surrounding environment monitoring and sampling device includes a base and a monitoring device body. The monitoring device body is fixedly connected to the base via multiple support columns at the bottom. The bottom of the base is fixedly connected to a rod for fixing the entire device. A first protective mechanism for protecting the monitoring device body is provided below the monitoring device body. A second protective mechanism is provided on the top of the monitoring device body. A drive mechanism for driving the first protective mechanism to move up and down and the second protective mechanism to rotate is provided on the top of the base. A moving mechanism for rapidly moving the device is also provided at the bottom of the base.

[0007] Optionally, the first protective mechanism includes a protective cover that is slidably disposed on the outer wall of the support column. The protective cover has a cavity inside, and the top and bottom of the protective cover have water inlets and drain holes, respectively. The protective cover is equipped with a first guide plate and a second guide plate at the water inlet and drain hole, respectively.

[0008] Optionally, the inner wall of the protective cover is bonded with a sponge pad, and two water baffles are symmetrically provided on the top of the protective cover.

[0009] Optionally, the second protective mechanism includes a fixing plate, which is fixedly installed on the top of the monitoring equipment body. Two protective plates are symmetrically hinged to the top of the fixing plate, and a first drive gear is installed on the outer wall of the hinge shaft of each of the two protective plates.

[0010] Optionally, the fixing plate has a groove, inside which a second drive gear and a third drive gear are rotatably mounted via two first rotating shafts, and the second drive gear and the third drive gear mesh with the two first drive gears respectively.

[0011] Optionally, both protective plates are provided with multiple through holes, and a guide pipe is installed on the protective plate below the through holes. The top of the protective plate is integrally formed with a protrusion near the through holes.

[0012] Optionally, the drive mechanism includes a motor mounted on the top of the base, with a lead screw coaxially connected to the output end of the motor, and a movable plate integrally formed on the back of the protective cover, with the top end of the lead screw passing through the movable plate.

[0013] Optionally, a mounting plate is fixedly provided on the back of the fixed plate, and a rotating block is connected to the top of the lead screw through the mounting plate. A rotating rod is integrally formed on the outer wall of the rotating block. An intermittent rotating component that cooperates with the rotating rod is rotatably mounted on the back of the fixed plate through a second rotating shaft. The outer wall of the second rotating shaft is rotatably engaged with one of the first rotating shafts through a belt.

[0014] Optionally, the moving mechanism includes two rotating seats, which are symmetrically hinged to both ends of the base, and each of the two rotating seats has a rotatable wheel on its top.

[0015] Optionally, the base has a slot near the hinge of the rotating seat, and a limiting plate for limiting and fixing the rotating seat is inserted into the slot.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0017] In this invention, by setting up a protective cover and protective plates, the protective cover can be moved upward by the drive mechanism in rainy or snowy weather to protect the monitoring equipment body, and at the same time, the two protective plates are rotated downward to a tilted state to protect the top of the monitoring equipment body, preventing rain and snow from splashing onto the monitoring equipment body and affecting its use.

[0018] In this invention, while the protective cover protects the monitoring device body, the device itself continues to operate. The heat generated during operation is blocked by the protective cover and cannot dissipate. At this time, the protective plate is tilted upwards, allowing rainwater falling on its top to flow through a guide pipe and a first guide plate at the top of the protective cover into the cavity inside the cover, and then out through the drainage hole at the bottom. During this process, the rainwater carries away the heat generated by the monitoring device body, achieving rapid heat dissipation and preventing heat accumulation inside the protective cover from affecting its operation. Furthermore, the protective cover... The sponge pads on the inner wall of the cover can absorb the condensation that forms between the low temperature of rainwater flowing through the cavity and the high temperature formed by the heat from the outer wall of the monitoring device. This prevents the condensation from entering the monitoring device. Additionally, in winter when the outside temperature is low, the cover can insulate the monitoring device. The sponge pads enhance the insulation, preventing heat loss and ensuring the device remains usable in low-temperature environments.

[0019] In this invention, during the hot summer, the drive mechanism can move the protective cover downwards and rotate the protective plate downwards. The protective plate can then provide shade, preventing the monitoring device from being directly exposed to the external environment and causing overheating during operation. When the protective cover moves below the monitoring device, the heat dissipation of the monitoring device is not affected, and the sponge pad on the inner wall of the protective cover that has absorbed condensation can be dried, making it dry for future use.

[0020] In this invention, the movable mechanism allows the rotating seat to be rotated downwards when the equipment needs to be moved to a different work location. The rotating seat is then fixed by a limiting plate, allowing the moving wheels to contact the ground. At this point, one person can push the entire equipment to move, thus facilitating the movement of the entire equipment and improving the overall installation efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0029] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] Reference Figure 1-6 A smart bus shelter surrounding environment monitoring and sampling device includes a base 1 and a monitoring device body 3. The monitoring device body 3 is fixedly connected to the base 1 through multiple support columns 13 at the bottom. The bottom of the base 1 is fixedly connected to a plug rod 12 for fixing the entire device. The bottom of the monitoring device body 3 is provided with a first protective mechanism for protecting the monitoring device body 3. The top of the monitoring device body 3 is provided with a second protective mechanism. The top of the base 1 is provided with a drive mechanism for driving the first protective mechanism to move up and down and the second protective mechanism to rotate. The bottom of the base 1 is also provided with a moving mechanism for quickly moving the device.

[0031] As a technical optimization of the present invention, the first protective mechanism includes a protective cover 2 slidably disposed on the outer wall of the support column 13. The protective cover 2 has a cavity 24 inside, and its top and bottom are respectively provided with a water inlet and a drain hole 25. A first guide plate 7 and a second guide plate 8 are respectively installed on the protective cover 2 at the water inlet and drain hole 25. Through the protective cover 2, in rainy or snowy weather, the drive mechanism can move the protective cover 2 upwards and cover the monitoring equipment body 3 for protection, preventing rain and snow from splashing onto the monitoring equipment body 3.

[0032] As a technical optimization of the present invention, a sponge pad 23 is adhered to the inner wall of the protective cover 2, and two water baffles 16 are symmetrically arranged on the top of the protective cover 2. When the protective cover 2 protects the monitoring device body 3, the monitoring device body 3 is still working, and it will continuously release heat during continuous operation. This heat will be blocked by the protective cover 2 covering the outside of the monitoring device body 3 and cannot dissipate. Rainwater will enter the cavity 24 inside the protective cover 2 through the first guide plate 7 and the water inlet, and slowly discharge from the drain hole 25 at the bottom of the protective cover 2 and the second guide plate 8. In this process, the rainwater can carry away the heat generated by the operation of the monitoring device body 3, achieving the effect of rapid heat dissipation of the monitoring device body 3, thereby preventing heat from accumulating inside the protective cover 2 and affecting the operation of the monitoring device body 3. Furthermore, the second guide plate 8, which tilts to both ends, can drain rainwater away from the base 1, thus preventing rainwater from being directly discharged onto the base 1. This would prevent rainwater from wetting the soil or concrete surface at the bottom of the base 1 where the insertion rod 12 is located, causing the soil or concrete at the bottom of the base 1 to remain damp for a long time, leading to loosening and affecting the overall stability of the equipment. Moreover, the sponge pad 23 installed on the inner wall of the protective cover 2 can absorb the condensation formed between the inner wall of the protective cover 2 and the outer wall of the monitoring equipment body 3 when the rainwater flows through the cavity 24, preventing this condensation from entering the monitoring equipment body 3. At the same time, when the outside temperature is low in winter, the protective cover 2 can insulate the monitoring equipment body 3, and the sponge pad 23 can improve the insulation effect of the monitoring equipment body 3, making it less likely for heat to be lost and preventing the monitoring equipment body 3 from being easily affected and becoming unusable in low-temperature environments. Furthermore, when a large amount of snow accumulates on top of the protective plate 4 in winter, the protective cover 2 blocks the heat from the monitoring device body 3, allowing the heat generated by the monitoring device body 3 to slowly escape upwards through the opening at the top of the protective cover 2. This heat, as it moves upwards, comes into contact with the bottom of the protective plate 4, causing the protective plate 4 to receive continuous heat and its own temperature to rise. This causes the snow on top of the protective plate 4 to melt slowly and slide off, achieving automatic snow removal without the need for manual assistance. In the hot summer, the drive mechanism can move the protective cover 2 downwards and rotate the protective plate 4 downwards. The protective plate 4 then provides shade, preventing the monitoring device body 3 from being directly exposed to the external environment and causing overheating during operation. Moving the protective cover 2 below the monitoring device body 3 ensures that its heat dissipation is not affected, and allows the sponge pad 23 on the inner wall of the protective cover 2, which has absorbed condensation, to dry, making it convenient for reuse.

[0033] As a technical optimization of the present invention, the second protective mechanism includes a fixing plate 5, which is fixedly installed on the top of the monitoring equipment body 3. Two protective plates 4 are symmetrically hinged to the top of the fixing plate 5, and a first drive gear 26 is installed on the outer wall of the hinge shaft of each of the two protective plates 4.

[0034] As a technical optimization of the present invention, a groove 27 is provided on the fixing plate 5, and a second drive gear 28 and a third drive gear 29 that mesh with each other are rotatably installed inside the groove through two first rotating shafts 18. The second drive gear 28 and the third drive gear 29 respectively mesh with the two first drive gears 26.

[0035] As a technical optimization of the present invention, multiple through holes are provided on both protective plates 4, and a guide pipe is installed below the through holes on the protective plate 4. A protrusion 6 is integrally formed on the top of the protective plate 4 near the through holes. After the two protective plates 4 are rotated to the upward tilted state, the bottom end of the guide pipe at the bottom of the protective plate 4 will face the direction of the first guide plate 7, and the top end of the baffle plate 16 on the top of the protective cover 2 will be in contact with the outer wall of the guide pipe, thus blocking the rainwater that flows from the guide pipe to the first guide plate 7, thereby preventing the rainwater from splashing onto the surface of the monitoring device body 3 when it falls onto the first guide plate 7; the protrusion 6 provided on the top of the protective plate 4 can block the rainwater when it falls on the top of the protective plate 4, so that the rainwater can fall into the guide pipe through the through holes, which facilitates the collection of rainwater and its drainage into the guide pipe.

[0036] As a technical optimization of the present invention, the driving mechanism includes a motor 15 mounted on the top of the base 1. The output end of the motor 15 is coaxially connected to a lead screw 14. A movable plate is integrally formed on the back of the protective cover 2, and the top end of the lead screw 14 passes through the movable plate. After the motor 15 is started, it drives the lead screw 14 to rotate synchronously. The protective cover 2 can rotate with the outer wall of the lead screw 14 through the movable plate on its back, so that the protective cover 2 can slide up and down on the support column 13 through the forward and reverse rotation of the lead screw 14, thereby protecting the monitoring equipment body 3.

[0037] As a technical optimization of the present invention, a mounting plate 17 is fixedly provided on the back of the fixing plate 5, the top end of the lead screw 14 passes through the mounting plate 17 and is connected to a rotating block 22, and the outer wall of the rotating block 22 is integrally formed with a rotating rod. An intermittent rotating component 21 that cooperates with the rotating rod is rotatably mounted on the back of the fixing plate 5 through a second rotating shaft 20. The outer wall of the second rotating shaft 20 is rotatably cooperated with one of the first rotating shafts 18 through a belt 19. When the lead screw 14 rotates, it drives the rotating block 22 and the rotating rod at its top to rotate together. When the rotating rod rotates, it strikes the intermittent rotating component 21, causing the intermittent rotating component 21 to rotate intermittently. This, in turn, drives one of the first rotating shafts 18 to rotate via the belt 19, which in turn drives the meshing second drive gear 28 and third drive gear 29 to rotate. The meshing second drive gear 28 and third drive gear 29 then drive the two first drive gears 26 to rotate in opposite directions. This allows the two protective plates 4 to rotate in a circular motion with their hinge joints facing each other or away from each other, achieving the effect of controlling the up and down movement of the protective cover 2 while simultaneously controlling the rotation of the protective plates 4.

[0038] As a technical optimization of the present invention, the moving mechanism includes two rotating seats 10, which are symmetrically hinged to both ends of the base 1, and each of the two rotating seats 10 is provided with a moving wheel 9 on its top.

[0039] As a technical optimization of the present invention, a slot is provided on the base 1 near the hinge part of the rotating seat 10, and a limiting plate 11 for limiting and fixing the rotating seat 10 is inserted into the slot. When the entire equipment needs to be moved to a different work location, the rotating seat 10 is rotated downwards, and the limiting plate 11 is inserted into the slot to limit and fix the rotating seat 10, so that the moving wheel 9 contacts the ground. At this time, one person can push the entire equipment to move, thereby facilitating the movement of the entire equipment and improving the overall installation efficiency of the equipment.

[0040] In this invention, when the user uses the device, the rotating seat 10 is rotated downwards and the limiting plate 11 is inserted into the slot to limit and fix the rotating seat 10, so that the moving wheel 9 contacts the ground. At this time, the staff pushes the whole device to move it. After the whole device is moved to the designated position, the rotating seat 10 is reset, and the plug 12 at the bottom of the base 1 is inserted into the pre-drilled hole in the road surface to fix the whole device. The monitoring device body 3 monitors and samples the environmental status around the smart bus shelter.

[0041] In rainy or snowy weather, to prevent the operation of the monitoring equipment body 3 from being affected, the motor 15 can be started to drive the lead screw 14 to rotate. The protective cover 2 can slide up and down on the support column 13 through the forward and reverse rotation of the lead screw 14, so as to protect the monitoring equipment body 3 from rain and snow splashing onto the monitoring equipment body 3 and affecting its use. When the lead screw 14 rotates, it will drive the rotating block 22 and the rotating rod at its top to rotate together, which will drive the intermittent rotating part 21 to rotate intermittently. Then, through the belt 19, it will drive one of the first rotating shafts 18 to rotate, so that the meshing second driving gear 28 and third driving gear 29 will drive the two first driving gears 26 to rotate in opposite directions, so as to control the up and down movement of the protective cover 2 and simultaneously control the rotation of the protective plate 4.

[0042] After the motor 15 drives the lead screw 14 to rotate and controls the two protective plates 4 to rotate to the upward tilted state, the bottom end of the guide pipe at the bottom of the protective plate 4 will face the direction of the first guide plate 7. The rainwater falling on the top of the protective plate 4 will enter the cavity 24 inside the protective cover 2 through the first guide plate 7 and the water inlet, and slowly discharge from the drain hole 25 at the bottom of the protective cover 2 and the second guide plate 8. During this process, the rainwater can carry away the heat generated by the monitoring equipment body 3, achieving the effect of rapid heat dissipation of the monitoring equipment body 3, thereby avoiding the accumulation of heat in the protective cover 2 and affecting the operation of the monitoring equipment body 3.

[0043] Meanwhile, the sponge pad 23 installed inside the protective cover 2 can absorb the condensation droplets formed between the inner wall of the protective cover 2 and the outer wall of the monitoring device body 3, preventing this condensation from entering the monitoring device body 3; at the same time, when the outside temperature is low in winter, the protective cover 2 can keep the monitoring device body 3 warm, so that the heat of the monitoring device body 3 is not easily lost, avoiding the problem that the monitoring device body 3 is easily affected and cannot be used in low temperature environment.

[0044] During the hot summer, the protective cover 2 can be moved downward by the drive mechanism, and the protective plate 4 can be rotated downward. The protective plate 4 can then provide shade, preventing the monitoring device body 3 from being directly exposed to the external environment, which could cause overheating and affect its operation. When the protective cover 2 moves to the bottom of the monitoring device body 3, the heat dissipation of the monitoring device body 3 is not affected, and the sponge pad 23 on the inner wall of the protective cover 2, which has absorbed condensation, can be dried and made dry, so that the sponge pad 23 can be reused next time.

These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the invention to the specific implementations described. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification.
