Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of construction environment monitoring equipment, and in particular to an environmental monitoring platform based on smart construction. Background Technology
[0002] Construction site dust pollution refers to the pollution of the atmosphere caused by particulate matter generated during activities such as exposed soil, building construction, road and pipeline construction, building demolition, material transportation, material storage, road cleaning, and plant planting and maintenance. Materials that generate dust pollution mainly include coal, road dust, arable soil, exposed ground, sand and gravel, ash, mortar, plaster, construction waste, and engineering spoil—substances that easily produce particulate matter.
[0003] Currently, most existing construction site environmental monitoring equipment consists of ground-based environmental monitoring stations to monitor dust and noise pollution generated during construction. However, these ground-based monitoring stations are unable to monitor higher-level pollution sources such as dust and noise. The monitoring data suffers from problems such as small monitoring range, low accuracy, missed detections, and missing data, which reduces the analyzability and representativeness of the monitoring data. This results in the surrounding environment of construction sites failing to meet environmental protection standards, thereby posing a serious threat to the physical and mental health of construction workers and the surrounding population. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the problem in the background technology that ground-based environmental monitoring stations are unable to monitor higher-level pollution such as dust and noise pollution, this invention proposes an environmental monitoring platform based on smart construction.
[0005] The technical solution of the present invention is: an environmental monitoring platform based on intelligent construction, including a base, the base being anchored on the ground, a self-locking rope winding mechanism being fixedly provided on the base, and a rope extending in the vertical direction being fixedly connected to the self-locking rope winding mechanism, the self-locking rope winding mechanism being used to wind up the rope.
[0006] The rope is equipped with multiple floating platforms spaced apart in the vertical direction. Each floating platform includes a horizontally arranged base plate. A sleeve that is open at both the top and bottom is fixedly inserted through the center of the base plate. The sleeve is slidably fitted on the rope. The rope is equipped with limiting components to restrict the vertical movement of the sleeve.
[0007] A ring-shaped protective box is fixed to the bottom of the substrate. The protective box contains a floating air bladder, which is filled with floating air. The floating air bladder is used to lift the floating platform in the air.
[0008] The base plate is equipped with a dust sensor and a noise sensor, which are connected to the ground base station signal.
[0009] Preferably, the vertical height of the limiting member on the rope is adjustable so that the floating height of the floating platform can be adjusted.
[0010] Preferably, an additional support can be detachably installed on the uppermost floating platform. The additional support extends away from the rope, and a camera is installed at the bottom of the end of the additional support away from the rope. The camera is offset from the floating platform below and is connected to the ground base station signal.
[0011] Preferably, the additional support includes a cantilever plate, one end of which is detachably connected to the base plate, and the other end of which extends to the outside of the base plate; a wind shield is fixedly provided at the bottom of the other end of the cantilever plate, and the wind shield is a bell-shaped structure that is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom.
[0012] The bottom of the cantilever plate is ball-jointed with a vertically installed suspension rod. The lower end of the suspension rod is fixedly connected to a protective cover with a lower opening. The camera is fixedly installed inside the protective cover. Both the protective cover and the camera are located inside a windproof cover.
[0013] Preferably, a vertically arranged wind vane is fixed on the peripheral side of the sleeve, and the wind vane is located above the base plate.
[0014] Preferably, a mounting plate is vertically fixed on the wind vane, and the mounting plate and the wind vane form a cross-shaped structure; both the dust sensor and the noise sensor are mounted on the mounting plate.
[0015] Preferably, the mounting plate is also equipped with a wind speed sensor and a temperature and humidity sensor, both of which are connected to the ground base station signal.
[0016] Preferably, a solar panel is fixedly mounted on the top of the substrate, and a battery is mounted on the mounting plate. The solar panel is electrically connected to the battery, and the battery is electrically connected to a dust sensor, a noise sensor, a wind speed sensor, and a temperature and humidity sensor, respectively.
[0017] Preferably, a storage box for storing the floating platform is fixed on the base. The storage box has an open top structure and a removable cover plate on the top. Multiple trays are detachably installed inside the storage box, with the number of trays equal to the number of the floating platform. A strip groove for ropes to pass through is opened in the middle of the tray, and the strip groove extends in the left and right direction.
[0018] The self-locking rope winding mechanism is located inside the storage box, and it is situated below the bottom tray.
[0019] The advantages of this invention are as follows: During use, floating platforms are deployed sequentially from top to bottom. The vertical distance between adjacent floating platforms needs to be designed according to the height of the construction building, generally with a floating platform spaced 5-7 meters apart. Limiting components are used to fix the vertical position of the floating platforms on the ropes. Multiple floating platforms in the air monitor dust concentration, wind speed, air temperature and humidity, and noise levels at different altitudes, providing more comprehensive and accurate data for ground base stations and offering data guidance for safe construction.

[0029] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. 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] Example 1: An environmental monitoring platform based on smart construction, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a base 2, which is anchored to the ground 1 by anchor bolts 3. A self-locking rope winding mechanism is fixedly provided on the base 2. A rope 10 extending in the vertical direction is fixedly connected to the self-locking rope winding mechanism 5, which is used to wind up the rope 10.
[0031] Specifically, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the self-locking rope winding mechanism includes a motor bracket 3 and a fixing plate 16 fixedly mounted on the base 1; the motor bracket 3 is provided with a rotary drive device 6, which includes a forward and reverse motor and a reducer connected to the output shaft of the forward and reverse motor. The output shaft of the reducer is fixedly connected to the right end of the drum 7. Both the left and right ends of the drum 7 are fixedly provided with annular baffles 8. The lower end of the rope 10 is fixedly connected to the drum 7; a fixing plate 11 is fixedly provided on the left side of the baffle 8 away from the rotary drive device 6. The left side of the fixing plate 11 has several left-opening brake slots.
[0032] The fixing plate 16 is located to the left of the fixing plate 11. The fixing plate 16 has a through hole that is open to the left and right. The cylinder 15 is fixedly installed on the left side of the fixing plate 16. The left end of the cylinder 15 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod 14. The connecting rod 14 is an inverted gate-shaped rod structure. The other end of the connecting rod 14 passes through the through hole on the fixing plate 16 and is fixedly connected to the brake plate 12.
[0033] A spring 17 is sleeved on the connecting rod 14 between the brake plate 12 and the fixed plate 16. A brake pin 13 corresponding to the left and right brake slot is fixed on the right side of the brake plate 12. When the spring 17 is in the initial state, the brake pin 13 is inserted into the brake slot.
[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, the rope 10 is equipped with multiple floating platforms 20 spaced apart in the vertical direction, such as... Figure 5 As shown, the floating platform 20 includes a horizontally arranged base plate 21. A sleeve 22 that is open at both the top and bottom is fixedly inserted through the center of the base plate 21. The sleeve 22 is slidably sleeved on the rope 10. The rope 10 is provided with a limiting member to restrict the up and down movement of the sleeve 22.
[0035] The vertical height of the limiting component on the rope 10 is adjustable, allowing the floating height of the floating platform 20 to be adjusted. For example... Figure 5 As shown, the limiting component in this embodiment is a U-shaped rope clip 32.
[0036] A ring-shaped protective box 27 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the substrate 21. An air bladder 28 is provided inside the protective box 27 and filled with air gas. For safety, the air gas used in this embodiment is an inert gas: helium. The air bladder 28 is used to lift the levitation platform 20 into the air. For easy storage, the air bladder 28 in this embodiment is inflatable, such as... Figure 5 As shown, the air bladder 28 is connected to a valve core 29, which is embedded in the protective box 27.
[0037] To prevent the floating platform 20 from continuously rotating around the rope 10 due to wind forces at high altitudes, such as Figure 5 As shown, a vertically arranged wind vane 23 is fixed on the peripheral side of the sleeve 22, and the wind vane 23 is located above the base plate 21.
[0038] A mounting plate 24 is vertically fixed on the wind vane 23, and the mounting plate 24 and the wind vane 23 form a cross-shaped structure. Wind speed sensor 25, temperature and humidity sensor, dust sensor 26 and noise sensor are installed on the mounting plate 24. The wind speed sensor 25, temperature and humidity sensor, dust sensor 26 and noise sensor are all connected to the ground base station signal.
[0039] In order to improve the battery life of the wind speed sensor 25, temperature and humidity sensor, dust sensor 26, and noise sensor, this embodiment has a solar panel 31 fixedly installed on the top of the substrate 21, and a battery installed on the mounting plate 24. The solar panel 31 is electrically connected to the battery, and the battery is electrically connected to the dust sensor 26, noise sensor, wind speed sensor 25, and temperature and humidity sensor respectively.
[0040] The uppermost floating platform 20 is detachably equipped with an additional support, which includes a cantilever plate 33. One end of the cantilever plate 33 is detachably connected to the base plate 21, and the other end of the cantilever plate 33 extends to the outside of the base plate 21. A wind shield 34 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the other end of the cantilever plate 33. The wind shield 34 has a bell-shaped structure that is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom.
[0041] A ball joint seat 35 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the cantilever plate 33. A hinge ball is rotatably embedded at the bottom of the ball joint seat 35. A vertically arranged suspension rod 36 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the hinge ball. A protective cover 37 with a lower opening is fixedly connected to the lower end of the suspension rod 36. A camera 38 is fixedly installed inside the protective cover 37. Both the protective cover 37 and the camera 38 are located inside the windproof cover 34. The camera 38 is offset from the floating platform 20 below and is connected to the ground base station signal.
[0042] The camera 38 is connected by a ball joint via a boom 36, a ball joint seat 35, and a cantilever plate 33. This allows the camera 38 to remain vertical even when the floating platform 20 tilts due to high-altitude winds, thus preventing the camera 38's viewing angle from deviating from its preset monitoring range.
[0043] To facilitate the relocation of the environmental monitoring platform and prevent the floating platform 20 from falling off the base 2, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, a storage box 4 for storing the floating platform 20 is fixed on the base 2. The storage box 4 has an open top structure and a removable cover plate 29 is provided on the top of the storage box 4. A control box 40 is provided on the outside of the storage box 4. The control box 40 is connected to the rotary drive device 6 and the cylinder 16.
[0044] The storage box 4 is equipped with multiple vertically spaced retaining edges 18, on which trays 19 are placed. The bottom tray 19 is bolted to the retaining edge 18. The number of trays 19 is equal to that of the floating platform 20. A strip-shaped groove for the rope 10 to pass through is opened in the middle of the tray 19, and the strip-shaped groove extends in the left and right direction. The self-locking rope winding mechanism is located inside the storage box 4, and is located below the bottom tray 19.
[0045] Working Principle: During operation, floating platforms 20 are deployed sequentially from top to bottom. The vertical distance between adjacent floating platforms 20 needs to be designed according to the height of the construction building, generally with a floating platform 20 spaced 5-7 meters apart. U-shaped rope clamps 32 are used to fix the vertical position of the floating platforms 20. Multiple floating platforms 20 in the air monitor dust concentration, wind speed, air temperature and humidity, and noise levels at their respective altitudes, providing richer and more accurate data for the ground base station and providing data guidance for safe construction. Cameras 38 are used to monitor the construction activities of machinery and personnel within their field of view, providing intuitive image data for the ground base station.
[0046] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from its spirit or essential characteristics. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as exemplary and non-limiting, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within the present invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
