The temperature and humidity measurement module includes four functions: a sensor, a circuit, an antenna color change, and a message push. The fire monitoring module includes four functions: a sensor, a circuit, a buzzer, and a message push. The gas leakage monitoring module includes four functions: a sensor, a circuit, a buzzer, and a message push.

[0018] The router module uses a Wi-Fi router, which is located inside the housing 1 and is used to connect to the network and collect signals uploaded by the sensor module. The temperature and humidity measurement module consists of a DHT11 temperature and humidity sensor 11 and a signal amplification circuit, which is used to monitor the ambient temperature and humidity in real time, and convert the analog signal into a digital signal and upload it to the router module. The fire monitoring module consists of a photoelectric smoke sensor 12 and a signal amplification circuit, which is used to monitor the ambient smoke concentration and send an alarm signal to the router module when an abnormal smoke concentration is detected. The gas leak monitoring module consists of a methane sensor 13 and a signal amplification circuit, which is used to monitor the ambient smoke concentration and send an alarm signal to the router module when an abnormal smoke concentration is detected.

[0019] The network cable module uses a standard network cable to connect the router module, the control circuit module and the networking module to realize information transmission and interaction. The network cable module includes a standard network cable, a network cable interface, etc., which are used to realize the wired connection between the router module, the control circuit module and the networking module. The WAN port 9 and the LAN port 10 of the router module are connected to the control circuit module through the network cable module, which is used to transmit the environmental information and alarm signal collected by the router module to the control circuit module. The control circuit module then transmits the control signal to the networking module through the network cable module to control the buzzer and the light-emitting antenna 2. The network cable module uses a network cable, which can effectively prevent environmental interference and ensure the accuracy and real-time nature of information transmission. At the same time, the wired connection method is more stable and reliable than the wireless connection method. The interface type of the network cable module matches the interface of the router module, the control circuit module and the networking module, which can ensure stable connection and reliable information transmission. The commonly used interface standard is RJ45. The cable length of the network cable module is determined according to the layout area of ​​the environmental monitoring alarm system, generally between 3 meters and 30 meters, which can meet the needs of general home or office scenes. If the cable is too long, it will increase signal attenuation and affect the quality of information transmission. The network cable module is an important part of the environmental monitoring alarm system to realize information interaction among various modules. Through standard network cables and matching interfaces, high-quality information transmission between the router module, control circuit module and networking module is realized, providing guarantee for the stable operation of the system.

The power module is connected through a standard power supply 7, a power cord, and an AC power socket to obtain a 220V AC input. The power conversion circuit then converts the AC power into a DC 12V or 5V voltage output, which supplies power to the router module, the sensor module, and the control circuit module respectively. 3. The power module is a lithium battery, which is used to power the system in the event of a power outage to ensure uninterrupted operation of the system. The power supply is connected to the power conversion circuit, which is charged under normal power supply conditions and automatically powers the system in the event of a power outage. 4. The power conversion circuit uses a power adapter to convert 220V AC power into DC 12V and 5V voltages and maintain a stable output. The output power of the conversion circuit is determined according to the power required by the system, and the power is between 10W and 30W. 5. The working voltage of each functional module is 12V or 5V DC voltage, so the output voltage of the power module needs to match it to ensure the normal operation of the system. 6. The power module is located inside a multifunctional router, and the power lines of each functional module are connected to it. The length of the power line is determined according to the system layout area, and its interference with the signal line is taken into account.

[0021] The router module and the control circuit module are the core components of a multifunctional router, which are used for information collection, processing and control.

The microcontroller is the core of the control circuit and is used to collect and judge environmental information. The data comparison circuit is used to compare the environmental information with the predetermined threshold, and if the threshold is exceeded, an alarm signal is sent to the microcontroller. The drive circuit is used to control the buzzer and indicator light 3. 3. The setting position of the control circuit module is close to the router module, and the two are connected by a network cable for information transmission. The control circuit module is connected to the networking module through a signal line for sending control signals. 4. The power supply of the control circuit module is 12V DC, which is supplied by the power module. The selection of the working voltage needs to match the router module and the networking module.

The heat dissipation fan is set on one side or both sides of the heat sink to blow away the heat accumulated on the surface of the heat sink. 4. The power of the heat dissipation module is determined according to the thermal design power of the heating module. It is necessary to consider the ambient temperature and the heat dissipation environment to select a suitable heat sink and heat dissipation fan to ensure effective heat dissipation and control the temperature of key components within the normal working range. 5. The power of the heat dissipation module is provided by the power module, and the working voltage matches the heat dissipation fan. The speed of the cooling fan can be set to a constant speed or temperature-controlled speed, and automatically adjusted according to the heat of the system to achieve the best cooling effect. 6.
