Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of image monitoring, and in particular to an image acquisition device and a switch machine. Background Art

[0002] A switch is an important signal infrastructure device used to reliably switch the position of a turnout, change the direction of turnout opening, lock the switch point rail, and reflect the position of the turnout. It can effectively ensure driving safety, improve transportation efficiency, and improve the labor intensity of drivers. The function of a switch is to switch and lock the point rail (point rail), change the direction of turnout opening, and reflect the position status of the point rail (point rail) through the contact. The switch is one of the important equipment to ensure the safety of railway transportation. If the switch fails to switch the turnout into place normally, it will affect the normal operation of the train. In serious cases, it may cause a train collision or derailment. Therefore, the switch is an electric traction device for railway turnouts, and the reliability of its operation is related to the safety of railway transportation.

[0003] For switch machines, the switch gap (i.e., the switch indication gap) is used to reflect the close contact and position of the switch point rail (center rail) and the stock rail (wing rail). It is an important indicator for monitoring the switch status that directly affects driving safety. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor the switch gap in real time.

[0004] The switch gap image acquisition device is an important component of the existing switch gap monitoring system and is installed on the contact seat inside the switch machine.

[0005] Since switch machines are usually installed in outdoor environments and are exposed to severe weather such as wind, sand, rain and snow, waterproof performance has become an important performance requirement for existing switch machine gap image acquisition devices.

[0006] However, the existing switch gap image acquisition device has weak waterproof performance. After being soaked in rain for a long time, it is easy to cause damage to the internal electronic components, affecting the normal use and service life of the entire device.

[0007] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a technology that can solve the above technical problems. Summary of the Invention

[0080] In the bottom plate cavity 31, a plurality of spaced support cylinders 35 are provided;

[0081] The support cylinder 35 is fixedly connected to the camera module 4 by screws;

[0082] On the device mounting base plate 3, at least one window 33 is provided in the opening;

[0083] A camera module 4 is correspondingly provided on the inner side of each window 33 .

[0084] The upper shell 2 is provided with a sealing clamping boss cavity 29 at a position corresponding to the cavity partition boss 30 on the device mounting base 3;

[0085] The cavity partition boss 30 is sealed and clamped with the sealing clamping boss cavity 29 .

[0086] In specific implementation, the camera module 4 is welded to the lighting assembly;

[0087] The lighting lamp group includes at least two lighting lamps 5 , which are arranged corresponding to the windows 33 .

[0088] It should be noted that each lighting group includes at least two lighting lamps, which are used to provide auxiliary light sources when the camera module 4 is shooting, thereby enhancing the shooting effect and ensuring the shooting quality.

[0089] In specific implementation, the cavity partition boss 30 on the device mounting base plate 3 is located inside the sealing clamping boss cavity 29;

[0090] In a specific implementation, the camera module 4 and the lighting lamp assembly are located on the inner side of the cavity partition boss 30 and the sealing clamping boss cavity 29 .

[0091] It should be noted that, since the cavity partition boss 30 on the device mounting base plate 3 is sealed and clamped with the sealing clamping boss cavity 29 of the upper shell 2, a sealed space is formed, so that the base plate cavity 31 located on the inner side of the cavity partition boss 30, which is used to install electronic devices such as the camera module 4 and the lighting group, can achieve reliable sealing, prevent external rainwater and dust from entering, ensure waterproof performance, and effectively ensure the normal use and safety of the camera module 4 and the lighting group.

[0096] It should be noted that the camera module 4 and the lighting lamp assembly can capture images and illuminate the outside through the window 33.

[0097] In a specific implementation, the entire outer side of the lens of the camera module 4 (ie, the bottom surface) is covered with a transparent lens film 6 .

[0098] In a specific implementation, the edge portion of each lens film 6 is bonded to the bottom surface of the device mounting base plate 3 .

[0099] In a specific implementation, each lens film 6 is respectively covered and adhered to the bottom surface of a window 33 .

[0100] Furthermore, a transparent lens film 6 is pasted on the upper and lower sides of each window 33 .

[0101] Furthermore, the lens film 6 is provided with a notch groove 601 at a position corresponding to each supporting cylinder 35;

[0102] The inner edge of the notch 601 of the lens film 6 is in close contact with the outer wall of the adjacent supporting cylinder 35 .

[0103] Furthermore, a circle of adhesive area 602 is provided around the upper side or the lower side of the lens film 6 .

[0104] In specific implementation, the top of the device mounting base plate 3 is provided with base plate docking grooves 39 on the outer sides of both ends of the cavity partition boss 30;

[0105] The device mounting base plate through hole 301 is located inside the base plate docking groove 39;

[0107] The upper shell through hole 201 is located inside the upper shell docking cavity 22;

[0108] The upper cover 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate docking groove 39 of the device mounting bottom plate 3 and the upper shell docking cavity 22 of the upper shell 2 by a plurality of screws.

[0109] It should be noted that the screws, after sequentially passing through the corresponding device mounting base plate through holes 301 and upper shell through holes 201, are threadedly secured to the threaded connection holes 16 of the upper cover plate 15 of the device base 1. Thus, a secure connection is achieved between the upper cover plate 15 of the device base 1, the device mounting base 3, and the upper shell 2.

[0110] In the present invention, in a specific implementation, the upper shell 2 is turned upside down 180 degrees to form a graphic, such as Figure 8 shown.

[0111] See also Figure 8 , the bottom of the upper shell 2 is provided with a sealing clamping boss cavity 29 and two upper shell docking cavities 22;

[0112] The upper shell 2 is provided with a sealing clamping boss cavity 29 at a position corresponding to the cavity partition boss 30 on the device mounting base 3;

[0113] The cavity partition boss 30 is sealed and clamped with the sealing clamping boss cavity 29 .

[0114] The two upper shell docking cavities 22 are located outside the two ends of the sealing clamping boss cavity 29 .

[0115] In a specific implementation, a circle of stepped portions 290 is provided around the top of the sealing clamping boss cavity 29;

[0116] The stepped portion 290 includes a vertical plane portion and a horizontal plane portion distributed around;

[0117] a vertical plane portion, disposed on the outer side of the top of the horizontal plane portion;

[0118] The stepped portion 290 is engaged with the cavity partition boss 30 .

[0119] It should be noted that the sealing snap-fit ​​boss cavity 29 is sealed and snap-fitted with the cavity partition boss 30 on the device mounting base 3, which can effectively prevent external water and dust from entering the sealing snap-fit ​​boss cavity 29, thereby providing effective waterproof protection for electronic devices such as the camera module 4 and the lighting group installed in the sealing snap-fit ​​boss cavity 29.

[0120] In a specific implementation, the connection cable 110 of the camera module 4 passes through an upper shell docking cavity 22 and is connected to an external image acquisition and storage device (such as a host computer);

[0121] Furthermore, the connection cable 110 of the camera module 4 is sealed and connected to the upper shell docking cavity 22. The specific structural design is as follows: a first cable through hole 24 is provided on the outer side of each upper shell docking cavity 22;

[0122] The sealing clamping boss cavity 2929 is provided with a second cable through hole 25 at a position corresponding to each first cable through hole 24;

[0123] The connection cable 110 of the camera module 4 passes through the second cable through hole 25 and the first cable through hole 24 at the corresponding positions, and is connected to an external image acquisition and storage device (such as a host computer);

[0124] Furthermore, the connection cable 110 of the camera module 4 is sealed and connected to the second cable through hole 25 and the first cable through hole 24 respectively.

[0125] In specific implementation, a through-hole sheath 10 is provided on the inner side of each second cable through-hole 25 and each first cable through-hole 24;

[0126] The outer side of each via sheath 10 is surrounded by an embedding groove 1001;

[0127] Embedding groove 1001, used for embedding into the inner edge of the second cable through hole 25 or the first cable through hole 24;

[0128] The inner through hole of the via sheath 10 is used to pass the connection cable 110 of the camera module 4;

[0129] The outer side surface of the connecting cable 110 is bonded to the inner through hole of the via sheath 10 by means of sealant.

[0130] Furthermore, the diameter of the inner through hole (ie, the through hole) of the via sheath 10 is smaller than the diameter of the connecting cable 110 , that is, the two are interference fit.

[0131] It should be noted that since the diameter of the inner through hole (i.e., the via) of the via sheath 10 is smaller than the diameter of the connecting cable 110, and the outer side surface of the connecting cable 110 is bonded to the inner through hole of the via sheath 10 through sealant, the sealing performance can be effectively guaranteed.

[0132] It should be noted that the spaces of the two upper shell docking cavities 22 and the sealing clamping boss cavity 29 are relatively independent, and the second cable through hole 25 and the first cable through hole 24 serving as the wire outlet holes are both sealed, so as not to affect the sealing performance of the sealing clamping boss cavity 29, and further will not affect the normal operation of electronic devices such as the camera module 4 and the lighting group installed in the sealing clamping boss cavity 29.

[0133] In addition, the image acquisition device provided by the present invention can be applied to a switch machine. Figures 11 to 13 The present invention also provides a switch machine, which includes: Figures 1 to 10 The image acquisition device 100 and the contact seat 200 of the switch machine are shown;

[0134] The image acquisition device 100 is arranged on the top of the contact seat 200 of the switch machine;

[0135] The image acquisition device 100 is used to capture images of the designated photographing area 300 downward;

[0136] In a specific implementation, the designated photographing area 300 is the area directly below the image acquisition device, for example, an image of the position of the notch on the indicating rod of the switch machine, for example Figure 12 The rectangular area shown.

[0137] It should be noted that for the switch on the railway, since the actual position of the notch for the reverse position is blocked by an object, the notch value (i.e., the width of the notch) is indirectly determined by shooting the notch line A and line B on the indicating rod 400 (both are short straight lines distributed longitudinally, and line A and line B are parallel to each other). The notch line A is relatively fixed to the actual positioning notch position 401, and the notch line B is relatively fixed to the actual reverse position notch position 402. The notch value of the actual reverse position is determined based on the notch value represented by the calibrated notch line AB. Here, for the switch, the meaning and function of the switch notch (i.e., the switch indicating notch) are common knowledge in the field of railway technology and will not be elaborated here.

[0138] After verification, the image acquisition device provided by the present invention is a waterproof and sealed device suitable for use in switch machines to capture images indicating gaps in the switch machine. Thanks to its scientific structural design and sealing treatment, the device's fixed mounting structure is isolated from the electrical components, effectively protecting the camera module and lighting assembly, while protecting the electrical components of the image acquisition device from water and dust interference. Furthermore, the image acquisition device's mounting structure is reliable, ensuring that it does not affect the normal operation of the switch machine while enabling accurate and reliable monitoring of gap images.

[0139] To sum up, compared with the prior art, the image acquisition device and switch provided by the present invention are scientifically designed. The image acquisition device has a strong waterproof function, which can effectively protect the electronic devices installed thereon (such as camera modules and lighting groups), effectively avoid damage to electronic devices caused by rain, and ensure that the electrical parts of the image acquisition device are not affected by rain during normal use, thereby improving the service life of the entire image acquisition device, which has great practical significance.

[0140] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
