Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to prefabricated buildings. Background Technology

[0002] Prefabricated buildings are widely used due to their advantages such as less construction work and shorter construction time, and are a new industrialized production method with great development potential in the future.

[0003] Due to their numerous advantages, prefabricated houses, including temporary housing and light steel houses, are being built in large quantities.

[0004] However, due to the high population density in cities, there are problems such as high density of people, wide range of sources of people, and long duration of people flow. Most of the existing prefabricated building types are fixed buildings, and the service windows that can provide services are fixed, which leads to overcrowding and service shortages.

[0005] The existing solution involves planning pedestrian entry and exit routes as rationally as possible, as well as optimizing the flow of people within the premises to reduce congestion. However, due to the structural limitations of the building itself, this approach is generally ineffective and fails to truly solve the problem. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the aforementioned issues, a prefabricated hub inspection station supporting omnidirectional multi-functional inspection is provided. The technical solution includes a fixed part and a rotating part. The fixed part includes an underground frame base, a base fixed above the base, a reinforced concrete support column fixed on the base, and a roof fixed on top of the support column. The rotating part includes a housing unit and a power unit. The housing unit is an independent prefabricated house, which is eccentrically mounted on the support column. The housing unit rotates eccentrically around the support column, and the power unit drives the housing unit to rotate around the support column as an axis.

[0007] Based on the above technical solution, the housing unit includes an arc-shaped wall, an upper roof slab, and a lower floor slab. The upper roof slab and the lower floor slab are respectively mounted on supporting columns, and the arc-shaped wall is supported between the two.

[0008] Based on the above technical solution, there are multiple support columns and housing units, with each support column corresponding to one housing unit.

[0009] Based on the above technical solution, the power unit includes a motor and a transmission mechanism that is powered by the motor. The motor is installed inside the roof, and the transmission mechanism passes through the roof and is inserted into the support column. An opening is opened on the side wall of the support column for the transmission mechanism to extend out. The house unit is powered by the transmission mechanism.

[0010] Based on the above technical solution, a sleeve is fixed to the bottom of the roof plate of the housing unit. The sleeve encloses the support column. The inner wall of the sleeve is provided with a flange with a rack. The flange is connected to the power unit through the rack.

[0011] Based on the above technical solution, the power unit includes a main drive shaft, a secondary drive shaft, a bevel gear set, and an independent bevel gear. The main drive shaft is connected to the motor for power connection. One end of the secondary drive shaft is connected to the main drive shaft through the bevel gear set. The other end of the secondary drive shaft passes through the support column and is connected to an independent bevel gear. The independent bevel gear extends out from the opening on the support column and meshes with the rack of the flange.

[0012] Based on the above technical solution, the fixed part also includes an extension support platform. The extension support platform has a stepped structure and its height is the same as that of the base. Multiple polygonal male interfaces are arranged in an array on the side wall of the base, and a polygonal female interface is arranged on the back of the extension support platform. When the housing unit rotates, its edge approaches the edge of the base, forming the minimum standing space of the base. The extended support platform is fitted into the male interface closest to the minimum standing space through the female interface and fixed.

[0013] To address the aforementioned technical issues, a method for using a prefabricated hub inspection station that supports omnidirectional multi-functional inspection is also provided. The steps are as follows: S1. Select the preset location of the testing station based on local geographical factors such as transportation, buildings, and infrastructure; S2. Based on the local population density and flow of people, select at least two flow directions. The first direction is the natural flow direction of people, and the second direction is the direction where the population is concentrated. S3. Determine which direction has the most people among all flow directions; S4. Construction and testing station for prefabricated hub structures; S5. During the construction process, by analyzing the first and second directions with the most people, the windows of the housing units are oriented to suitable positions; S6. After construction is completed, guide signs are marked around the base. First, a circulation channel is marked around the base. Then, in the first direction, an entry channel and an exit channel connecting the circulation channel are marked respectively. The second direction is the same as the first direction. S7. If the direction of pedestrian flow or the number of people is misjudged after the system is put into operation, the power unit can be activated to rotate the housing unit, adjust the window position of the housing unit so that it can better serve the correct direction of pedestrian flow, and re-mark the directional signs.

[0014] S8. Based on the number of people tested at different times each day after the station goes into operation, adjust the angle of the housing units if space permits at the testing station location; S8a. When the testing station is not near the intersection, rotate the housing unit so that it is perpendicular to the road red line during the period when there are many people being tested; S8b. When the testing station is not near the intersection, rotate the housing unit so that it is parallel to the road red line during periods when there are fewer people being tested; During periods with a large number of people being tested, rotating the housing unit to a direction perpendicular to the road boundary line can cut off the flow of people queuing along the road boundary line and divide them into two parts.

[0015] Based on the above technical solutions, S3a is also included. According to the number of people being tested per unit time at the location of the testing station, a solution can be selected to set up multiple housing units on a base.

[0016] Based on the above technical solution, according to the different testing processes, multiple housing units are functionally distinguished, with at least one housing unit designated as the identity verification and identity entry housing unit, and at least another housing unit designated as the sampling and testing housing unit; the guidance signs are redefined, with all entrance channels for all flow directions being designated in the direction of non-sampling and testing housing units, and exit channels being designated in the direction of sampling and testing housing units.

[0017] Beneficial effects: Based on the fixed part as the foundation support, an innovative independent rotatable prefabricated housing unit is set up. While keeping the fixed part as the foundation stationary, the individual rotating housing unit can adapt to different usage environments. The curved walls can be assembled into cylindrical or elliptical cylindrical housing units, and the rotation can give them different orientations. Through a distributed management approach, multiple people can be sampled and / or information collected and entered simultaneously. This solves the problem of overcrowding or low detection efficiency caused by the excessive concentration of people flow at traditional detection points. This housing unit can provide more than one detection window for each flow direction. One housing unit can provide detection windows for multiple flow directions. If there are many flow directions to be detected, the problem can be solved by increasing the number of housing units, which has a great advantage in flexibility.

[0018] By using an extension support platform, the area on which the base can stand is increased when the house unit swings, preventing situations where users cannot stand or are unstable. An extension support platform with a certain range of sliding is also available as an optional configuration to further enhance practicality.

[0019] In terms of usage, a model is provided to modify the construction plan according to factors such as the local environment. The plan according to steps 1 to 8b can be adapted to a variety of different environments. Adjustments can be made in a timely manner during the construction design stage based on different factors such as the local environment. At the same time, if there are any problems with the housing unit and guidance signs after completion, the housing unit can be adjusted immediately and guidance signs can be re-marked. The error tolerance rate is greatly improved, ensuring that the defects of the existing testing station are fundamentally solved. Attached Figure Description

[0034] Example

[0035] This embodiment provides a rotatable prefabricated building that serves as a core testing site in certain areas, functioning as a testing hub. A testing hub refers to a central node in a grid-based testing network. Supported by this node or hub, testing substations can be established in surrounding areas. Test samples from these substations are collected through the hub's testing points and then transported out in a unified manner.

[0036] Based on this, the prefabricated testing station in this embodiment can be configured with multiple people to simultaneously sample and test multiple streams of people. To achieve the above effect, multiple windows can be opened around the house unit 5. The person who needs to be tested can choose any empty or soon-to-be-empty sampling window around the house unit 5. Generally, the person can choose the sampling window that is closer to them for testing.

[0037] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figures 5 to 7 As shown (to better illustrate the structure and usage status), Figure 5 (The roof is omitted). House unit 5 has at least two functions: firstly, it needs to rotate on base 2 to adjust its direction; secondly, it needs to have multiple windows arranged around it to achieve omnidirectional detection, while also integrating information collection and sample collection functions to achieve a multi-functional effect. To achieve these effects, house unit 5 itself needs to be large enough to meet its positioning as a detection hub. House unit 5 can take any shape, and it rotates around support column 3 in an eccentric manner, essentially oscillating during rotation, thus providing directionality; furthermore... Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the shape of housing unit 5 is preferably cylindrical or elliptical, especially elliptical. Figure 7 As shown in the diagram, during the inspection, the queue of people is arranged along the road. Using elliptical bead-shaped housing units 5, whose extended length is perpendicular to the road's boundary line (i.e., the planned boundary line) or the road's direction, can interrupt the queue, dividing it into two parts centered on housing unit 5. Therefore, base 2 can be a cuboid or an elliptical cylinder, but to ensure that the windows of housing unit 5 can directly face the inspectors, the optimal solution is for both base 2 and housing unit 5 to point towards the road boundary line, and for their extended lines to be perpendicular to the road boundary line.

[0038] In this embodiment, the supporting foundation structure of the testing station is formed from bottom to top by a frame-type base 1, a base 2, a reinforced concrete support column 3, and a roof 4. However, the prefabricated building in this embodiment differs from traditional prefabricated buildings in that, instead of directly placing wall panels between the roof 4 and the base 2, an independent prefabricated building—the housing unit 5—is set between the roof 4 and the base 2. Testing personnel work inside the housing unit 5, requiring them to stand in front of the testing window below the roof 4 to conduct tests. This allows the fixed part to serve both as a supporting foundation and as a shelter from wind and rain. In this embodiment, the roof 4 can be constructed using prefabricated components assembled on-site. The remaining parts of the fixed part are constructed using traditional open-cut foundation methods. The reinforcing bars of the support column 3 extend from the top, facilitating the installation of the roof 4. The upper roof plate 7 of the housing unit 5 is supported on the lower base plate 8 by curved wall panels. There is no direct connection between the upper roof plate 7 and the support column 3; however, through holes for accommodating the support column 3 are reserved in both the upper roof plate 7 and the lower base plate 8.

[0039] The curved wall 6 consists of a frame made of common curved light steel keel and inner and outer wall panels, and is structurally the same as commonly used light steel keel frames. To provide a smoother rotation process, the house unit 5 can have a sliding rail on the base 2, and pulleys that slide on the sliding rail are installed on the lower base plate 8. The rotation trajectory of the house unit 5 is also the direction of the sliding rail. Multiple sliding rail and pulley combinations can be used at the bottom of the house unit 5 to better avoid frictional contact between the lower base plate 8 and the base 2.

[0040] In this embodiment, the number of housing units 5 can also be multiple. Based on this, to improve detection efficiency, several modes can be selected: firstly, each housing unit 5 can be equipped with the same integrated detection and information collection system; secondly, different housing units 5 can be equipped with different systems, for example, some housing units 5 are responsible for information collection and entry, while others are responsible for sample detection. Through the reasonable marking of guide signs 19, multiple personnel to be tested are first guided through the entry channel 20 for information collection and entry, then guided through the transfer channel 22 to enter the sample collection area, and finally leave through the exit channel after collection. Compared to... Figure 12 , Figure 13 and Figure 14 Two other application scenarios are shown, for the sake of brevity. Figure 13 and Figure 14 The drawing of guide sign 19 is omitted; refer to Figure 12 That's all.

[0041] In this embodiment, because the housing unit 5 rotates eccentrically, the edge of the housing unit 5 is very close to the edge of the base 2, resulting in very little or no standing space, defined as the minimum standing space, which causes inconvenience to the user. Therefore, in this embodiment, there is also a preferred embodiment for the fixing part, namely, adding an extension support platform 16, such as... Figure 8 As shown, to increase the standing space of the base 2, the extension support platform 16 is detachably connected to the base 2. This detachment is achieved through the insertion of a male interface 17 on the base 2 and a female interface 18 on the extension support platform 16. The male interface 17 is passively fitted and fixed by the female interface 18. The purpose of setting the female interface 18 on the extension support platform 16 to fit the male interface 17 is that even if the female interface 18 rusts during use, only the female interface 18 needs to be damaged, while the male interface 17 remains intact. Since the base 2 is a concrete structure, it is difficult to replace the male interface 17; therefore, the female interface 18 is placed on the extension support platform 16.

[0042] like Figure 9 As shown, due to the limited number of male interfaces 17, if the female interface 18 is also fixed on the expansion support platform 16, it may not be possible to cover as much area of ​​the base 2 as possible; that is, the area between the male interfaces 17 is difficult for the expansion support platform 16 to cover. Therefore, the female interface 18 and the expansion support platform 16 are arranged in a sliding connection manner. That is, when the female interface 18 is installed on the male interface 17, the expansion support platform 16 can be slid to cover as much area of ​​the base 2 as possible, increasing practicality. Example

[0043] This embodiment is a preferred example of the first embodiment. In this embodiment, the configuration of the power unit is preferred. For the purpose of facilitating installation and maintenance, the various structures of the power unit are installed inside the roof 4, and the top of the roof 4 is also provided with a maintenance cover to facilitate quick maintenance and other work.

[0044] The power unit can achieve the most basic power configuration through the motor 9 and the transmission mechanism, that is, the motor 9 drives the house unit 5 to rotate around the support column 3 through the transmission mechanism. The specific structure of the transmission mechanism is optional. However, in order to achieve a practical rotation angle or swing angle for the house unit 5, the transmission mechanism is directly inserted into the support column 3 from inside the roof 4, avoiding passing through the top plate 7. The side wall opening of the support column 3 allows the transmission mechanism to extend and connect to the house unit 5 for power connection.

[0045] In the power connection scheme between the transmission mechanism and the housing unit 5, a gear connection scheme is further preferred. That is, a flange 11 with a rack is provided in the sleeve 10 at the bottom of the upper top plate 7. The transmission mechanism is finally connected to the rack through the gear to achieve the power connection between the two. Furthermore, the transmission mechanism can be preferably a power connection scheme with multiple transmission shafts and gear sets. That is, the motor 9 outputs power to the main transmission shaft 12, the main transmission shaft 12 transmits power to the auxiliary transmission shaft 13 through the bevel gear set 14, and finally the auxiliary transmission shaft 13 drives the independent bevel gear 15 to drive the sleeve 10 to rotate, thereby realizing that the motor 9 drives the housing unit 5 to rotate. Example

[0046] This embodiment provides a solution for the use of testing stations, which can solve the problems of overcrowding and service disruption.

[0047] like Figure 10 and Figure 11 The diagram illustrates the existing layout of testing stations and the distribution of people, representing two common solutions. Because the current testing process is still divided into two steps—information registration and sample collection—some people often get stuck at the information registration step, leading to reduced testing efficiency and increased queues. It's worth noting that some existing testing sites integrate the two steps into a single testing window, while others separate them. The former has a more compact structure, but if the aforementioned problems arise, testing efficiency will be even lower, and small-scale crowding is more likely to occur at the window.

[0048] Based on known pedestrian flow data, factors that can provide pedestrian flow can be broadly categorized into transportation factors (i.e., subways, buses, shuttle buses), building factors (people gathered in workplaces such as office buildings), and pedestrian flow guided by other infrastructure (such as pedestrian flow from hospitals, parking lots, public service centers, libraries, and other infrastructure). A suitable location should be selected as a detection point, such as a pedestrian intersection or a path with high pedestrian traffic.

[0049] The direction and volume of pedestrian flow vary at different times. For example, during the morning rush hour, traffic factors play a dominant role, attracting the largest flow of people. The direction of natural or active pedestrian flow can be chosen as the primary direction. During midday or evening rush hours, building factors generally dominate, with pedestrian flow from office buildings, other densely populated areas forming the secondary direction. There may be third and fourth directions, but at least the first and second directions will be included. After selecting the direction, the construction design phase should plan the location of fixed and rotating components, their swing or rotation direction, the orientation of inspection windows, and the placement of directional signs. Once construction is complete and the building is in use, these planned factors can be adjusted based on actual operational conditions.

[0050] Since building unit 5 can rotate, its rotation angle can be adjusted according to different pedestrian traffic at different times. This angle is based on the road red line in urban planning, which runs along the road and represents the walking direction of people passing through the area. Referring to the first embodiment, the angle of building unit 5 can be adjusted according to pedestrian traffic at different times.

[0051] like Figure 12 As shown, Figure 12 This embodiment illustrates the ideal state, drawing inspiration from distributed processing. As many windows as possible are opened around house unit 5 to serve multiple people simultaneously. Figure 12 The image shows a common situation where people are queuing for testing in both directions on a road. The image also shows a guide sign 19, which guides people to enter the testing area through the entrance channel 20, and after testing, they can enter the exit channel 21 through the transfer channel 22 and then leave through the exit channel 21.

[0052] The non-sampling detection house is the house unit 5 with information collection and input capability, and the sampling detection house is the same.
