Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of measurement engineering technology, and more specifically, to an electric control system and a monitoring device. Background Art

[0002] At present, monitoring equipment (such as total stations) plays an important role in track monitoring, because it can realize automatic monitoring and replace traditional manual monitoring, and is widely used in railway, subway and other projects. Since monitoring equipment usually works in an open-air environment, related technologies usually provide a protective device to protect the monitoring equipment. When the monitoring equipment needs to be monitored, the protective device is moved to expose the monitoring equipment. When the monitoring equipment is not needed, the protective device is moved to be mounted on the monitoring equipment.

[0003] However, the monitoring equipment and protection devices in the related art are usually controlled by independent control systems, and there may be a problem of asynchronous control of the monitoring equipment and the protection device, which in turn affects the monitoring effect of the monitoring equipment and is costly. Summary of the invention

[0004] To solve the above problems, the present application provides an electric control system and a monitoring device, which aims to solve the problem that the monitoring device and the protection device are not controlled synchronously, thereby affecting the monitoring effect of the monitoring device and the high cost.

[0006] Based on the electric control system provided in the embodiment of the present application, the first control signal and the second control signal are fused into a third control signal through a fusion module and a transceiver module for synchronous transmission, so as to avoid the problem that the first control signal and the second control signal are transmitted asynchronously, that is, there is a transmission delay in one of the control signals, so as to ensure the transmission synchronization of the first control signal and the second control signal, thereby ensuring the control synchronization of the device body and the protection device, so as to avoid the problem that the protection device has a control delay, resulting in it still being mounted on the device body, blocking the line of sight of the device body, and then affecting the monitoring effect of the device body, thereby improving the monitoring accuracy of the device body. Secondly, the processing module can centrally process the received fusion signal (i.e., the third control signal), which can more efficiently utilize computing resources and memory compared to processing multiple independent signals at the same time, and realize the synchronous control of the device body and the protection device by an electric control system, with high control reliability, low energy consumption and low cost.

[0007] In one possible design, the electronic control system also includes a control module, an input end of the control module is connected to an output end of the processing module, an output end of the control module is connected to a protection device, and the control module is used to receive a second control signal and control the action of the protection device based on the second control signal.

[0008] In the above technical solution, the protection device is controlled by the control module based on the second control signal, thereby improving the control reliability of the protection device.

[0009] In one possible design, the protection device includes a motor and a battery, and the control module includes a first switch unit, a second switch unit and a controller; the first switch unit is connected to the motor and the battery respectively; the second switch unit is connected to the motor and the battery respectively; the controller is connected to the controlled end of the first switch unit and the controlled end of the second switch unit, and the controller is used to receive a second control signal and control the on and off of the first switch unit and the second switch unit based on the second control signal.

[0010] In one possible design, the first switch unit includes a first resistor, a first sub-switch, a second resistor and a second sub-switch; one end of the first resistor is connected to one end of the motor, the other end of the first resistor is connected to the first end of the first sub-switch, the second end of the first sub-switch is connected to the positive electrode of the battery, one end of the second resistor is connected to the other end of the motor, the other end of the second resistor is connected to the first end of the second sub-switch, the second end of the second sub-switch is connected to the positive electrode of the battery, and the controller is connected to the controlled end of the first sub-switch and the controlled end of the second sub-switch; and / or, the second switch unit includes a third resistor, a third sub-switch, a fourth resistor and a fourth sub-switch; one end of the third resistor is connected to one end of the motor, the other end of the third resistor is connected to the first end of the third sub-switch, the second end of the third sub-switch is connected to the negative electrode of the battery, one end of the fourth resistor is connected to the other end of the motor, the other end of the fourth resistor is connected to the first end of the fourth sub-switch, the second end of the fourth sub-switch is connected to the negative electrode of the battery, and the controller is connected to the controlled end of the third sub-switch and the controlled end of the fourth sub-switch.

[0011] In a possible design, the transceiver module includes either an RS232 transceiver or an RS485 transceiver.

[0012] In a second aspect, the present application provides a monitoring device, comprising a device body, a protection device and the electric control system described in any optional manner of the first aspect, wherein the protection device is formed with a accommodating cavity, and the device body is located in the accommodating cavity.

[0013] In one possible design, the protective device includes a base, a lifting structure and a protective cover; the lifting structure is fixed to the base and electrically connected to the electronic control system; the protective cover is mounted on the lifting structure and movably connected to the lifting structure; wherein the lifting structure is used to drive the protective cover to move along a first direction to approach the base to form a accommodating cavity, or to move away from the base.

[0014] In the above technical solution, when the device body needs to start monitoring, the electronic control system will control the operation of the lifting structure while controlling the device body to start working, so as to drive the protective cover to move upward along the first direction, so that the device body is exposed, so as to avoid the problem that the protective cover is set on the device body and blocks the monitoring line of sight, thereby ensuring the monitoring reliability and monitoring accuracy of the device body. When the device body is not needed to be monitored, the electronic control system will control the operation of the lifting structure while controlling the device body 1 to start working. The lifting structure drives the protective cover to move downward along the first direction to approach the base until it abuts against the base to form a accommodating cavity. The device body is located in the accommodating cavity. At this time, the protective cover cooperates with the base to play a protective role such as dustproof, rainproof, and lightning protection, thereby avoiding the problem that natural factors such as wind, sand, dust, and rain affect the service life of the device body, thereby improving the service life of the device body.

[0018] In the above technical solution, when the motor drives the push rod to move up and down along the first direction, since the sliding rod assembly is inserted into the first through hole and is fixedly connected to the protective cover, the protective cover will move up and down along the sliding rod assembly in the first direction, that is, the sliding rod assembly and the connecting bracket can limit the protective cover, so that the protective cover can only move up and down along the first direction, avoiding the problem of the protective cover shaking left and right, thereby improving the movement stability of the protective cover.

[0019] In a possible design, the protection device further includes a sealing member, which is disposed around a side of the protection cover facing the base. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0034] In the following description, specific details such as specific system structures, technologies, etc. are provided for the purpose of illustration rather than limitation, so as to provide a thorough understanding of the embodiments of the present application. However, it should be clear to those skilled in the art that the present application may also be implemented in other embodiments without these specific details. In other cases, detailed descriptions of well-known systems, devices, and circuits are omitted to prevent unnecessary details from obstructing the description of the present application.

[0035] Railway projects (for example, the construction and expansion of railways or subways) usually require 24-hour regular monitoring to ensure the safety and efficient operation of the projects. Manual monitoring is costly, has low reliability, and is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Therefore, automated monitoring equipment (such as total stations) is usually used to conduct automated monitoring of railway projects, which has higher reliability.

[0036] At present, monitoring equipment usually works and is exposed to open-air environments. It may be affected by natural factors such as light, wind, sand, dust, and rainfall, which in turn affects the monitoring accuracy. After a long time, these natural factors will also affect the service life of the monitoring equipment. For example, in a harsh rainy day environment, there is a problem of rainwater erosion of the monitoring equipment; in an open outdoor thunderstorm environment, the monitoring equipment does not have a lightning protection function and may be struck by lightning and burned, resulting in a short service life of the monitoring equipment and a certain waste of resources. For this reason, a protective device is usually provided in the relevant technology to protect the monitoring equipment to prevent natural factors such as light, wind, sand, dust, and rainfall from affecting its monitoring accuracy and service life. Specifically, when the monitoring equipment needs to be monitored, the protective device is moved to expose the monitoring equipment. When the monitoring equipment does not need to be monitored, the protective device is moved to be mounted on the monitoring equipment to play a protective role. In order to enable the protective device to move based on different conditions, a corresponding lifting device is usually configured in the relevant technology to move the protective device, and the lifting device drives the protective device away from or close to the monitoring equipment.

[0037] However, the monitoring equipment and protection device in the related technology are usually controlled by independent control systems, that is, different control systems respectively control the monitoring equipment and the lifting device that drives the protection device. In this way, there may be a problem of asynchronous control of the monitoring equipment and the protection device. For example, the monitoring equipment has started monitoring, but the protection device is still installed on the monitoring equipment, blocking the line of sight of the monitoring equipment, thereby affecting the monitoring effect of the monitoring equipment and reducing the monitoring accuracy of the monitoring equipment. In addition, the cost of using two control systems for control is relatively high.

[0038] To this end, the present application provides an electric control system and a monitoring device, which realizes synchronous control of the equipment body and the protection device through an electric control system to ensure the monitoring reliability and accuracy of the equipment body, and when controlled by an electric control system, the control reliability is high, and the energy consumption and cost are low.

[0039] The electronic control system and monitoring equipment provided in the present application are exemplarily introduced below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0040] like Figure 1As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a monitoring device, including a device body 1, a protection device 2 and an electric control system 3, wherein a housing cavity 2A is formed in the protection device 2, the device body 1 is located in the housing cavity 2A, and the electric control system 3 is electrically connected to the device body 1 and the protection device 2, respectively, to control the actions of the device body 1 and the protection device 2, respectively. Specifically, when the device body 1 needs to start monitoring, the electric control system 3 will control the movement of the protection device 2 while controlling the device body 1 to start working, so that the device body 1 is exposed, thereby avoiding the problem that the device body 1 starts working while the protection device 2 is still mounted on the device body 1, blocking the line of sight of the device body 1, and ensuring the monitoring reliability of the device body 1. When the device body 1 does not need to be monitored, the electric control system 3 will control the movement of the protection device 2 while controlling the device body 1 to stop working, so that the protection device 2 is mounted on the device body 1 to play a protective role.

[0041] Optionally, the device body 1 in the present application may be a total station, a static level, a serial inclinometer or other field operation equipment for monitoring, and the present application does not impose any specific limitation on this.

[0042] In one example, if Figure 2 As shown, the protection device 2 may include a base 21, a lifting structure 22 and a protection cover 23. The lifting structure 22 is fixed to the base 21 and electrically connected to the electric control system 3. The protection cover 23 is sleeved on the lifting structure 22 and movably connected to the lifting structure 22. The lifting structure 22 is used to drive the protection cover 23 to move along the first direction XX to approach the base 21 to form the accommodating chamber 2A, or to move away from the base 21. Specifically, the lifting structure 22 is used to drive the protection cover 23 to move along the first direction XX. For example, when the device body 1 needs to start monitoring, the electric control system 3 will control the lifting structure 22 to operate while controlling the device body 1 to start working, so as to drive the protection cover 23 to move upward along the first direction XX, so that the device body 1 is exposed, so as to avoid the problem that the protection cover 23 is sleeved on the device body 1 and blocks the monitoring line of sight, thereby ensuring the monitoring reliability and monitoring accuracy of the device body 1. When the equipment main body 1 does not need to be monitored, the electronic control system 3 will control the operation of the lifting structure 22 while controlling the equipment main body 1 to start working. The lifting structure 22 drives the protective cover 23 to move downward along the first direction XX to approach the base 21 until it abuts against the base 21 to form an accommodating cavity 2A. The equipment main body 1 is located in the accommodating cavity 2A. At this time, the protective cover 23 cooperates with the base 21 to provide protection against dust, rain, lightning, etc., thereby avoiding the problem of natural factors such as wind, sand, dust, and rain affecting the service life of the equipment main body 1, thereby improving the service life of the equipment main body 1.

[0043] The base 21 is used to provide a placement platform for the device body 1, and optionally, Figure 2As shown, the base 21 can be a planar structure, such as a fixed plate, etc. When the base 21 adopts a planar structure, it can provide a stable base for the device body 1 to reduce the shaking or tilting of the device body 1 caused by external forces, thereby improving the stability of the device body 1 and ensuring the monitoring reliability of the device body 1. At the same time, the planar structure is simple in structure, occupies less space, can save space, and can effectively disperse the weight of the device body 1 to avoid structural damage or deformation caused by concentrated force, thereby extending the service life of the base 21.

[0044] Optionally, the base 21 may also include a bottom plate and a fence surrounding the bottom plate (not shown in the figure), and the device body 1 is placed on the bottom plate. When the protective cover 23 is away from the base 21 so that the device body 1 is exposed, the fence can protect the device body 1 to prevent the device body 1 from falling from the base 21 under the action of external force, causing damage to the device body 1, or even causing personal injury, thereby improving safety to a certain extent. The specific structure of the base 21 can be set according to actual needs. For example, if you want to reduce the production cost, the base 21 can adopt a planar structure. If you want to further improve safety, the base 21 can adopt a bottom plate and a fence surrounding the bottom plate. The base 21 can also adopt other structures, and this application does not make specific restrictions.

[0045] The device body 1 generates a lot of heat when running. In order to improve the heat dissipation effect, in one example, Figure 2 As shown, a second through hole 21A is provided on the base 21, and the device body 1 covers the second through hole 21A, thereby reducing the contact area between the base 21 and the device body 1. When the device body 1 is running, the heat generated can be dissipated to the outside of the protective device 2 through the second through hole 21A to achieve a heat dissipation effect.

[0046] In an example, see Figure 3 and Figure 4The lifting structure 22 may include a motor 221, a push rod tube 222 and a push rod 223. The motor 221 is electrically connected to the electric control system 3. The push rod tube 222 is fixed to the base 21. One end of the push rod 223 is movably connected to the push rod tube 222. The other end of the push rod 223 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protective cover 23. The motor 221 is used to drive the push rod 223 to move along the first direction XX to drive the protective cover 23 to move along the first direction XX. In this example, when the device body 1 needs to be monitored, the motor 221 drives the push rod 223 to move upward along the first direction XX, thereby driving the protective cover 23 to move upward along the first direction XX to move away from the base 21. When the motor 221 drives the push rod 223 to move until one end of the push rod 223 abuts against the top of the push rod tube 222, the protective cover 23 has moved into place, that is, the protective cover 23 has moved to a position where the device body 1 is completely exposed, and the motor 221 automatically exits the driving mode. When the equipment body 1 does not need to be monitored, the motor 221 drives the push rod 223 to move downward along the first direction XX, thereby driving the protective cover 23 to move downward along the first direction XX to approach the base 21. When the motor 221 drives the push rod 223 to move until one end of the push rod 223 abuts against the bottom end of the push rod tube 222, the protective cover 23 has moved into place, that is, the protective cover 23 has moved to a position that is completely abutted against the base 21, and the motor 221 automatically exits the driving mode. In this way, the push rod 223 can be accurately telescopically controlled by the motor 221 to achieve accurate adjustment of the lifting height. Compared with hydraulic or pneumatic driving structures, the motor 221 as a power source can provide more stable and smooth power output to reduce vibration and noise during the lifting process, and improve the stability and service life of the entire lifting structure 22. In addition, the mechanical structure driven by the motor 221 is simple, the failure rate is low, and it is convenient for daily maintenance and repair.

[0047] Here, it can be understood that the automatic lifting and automatic exit of the motor 221 can be achieved through programming, that is, the lifting speed, lifting time, exit conditions, etc. of the motor 221 can be determined through programming, and this application does not make specific restrictions on this.

[0048] Optional, such as Figure 4 As shown, the lifting structure 22 also includes a connecting member 224, which is fixed to the inner wall of the protective cover 23 and fixedly connected to the other end of the push rod 223. The connecting member 224 improves the connection firmness between the push rod 223 and the protective cover 23 to ensure the reliability of the push rod 223 driving the protective cover 23 to move along the first direction XX.

[0049] In order to prevent the protective cover 23 from shaking left and right when the lifting structure 22 drives the protective cover 23 to move, in an example, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the lifting structure 22 also includes a connecting bracket 225 and a sliding rod assembly 226. One end of the connecting bracket 225 is fixedly connected to the push rod tube 222, and the other end of the connecting bracket 225 is provided with at least one first through hole 225A. The sliding rod assembly 226 is fixedly connected to the protective cover 223, and the sliding rod assembly 226 is inserted in the first through hole 225A. In this example, when the motor 221 drives the push rod 223 to move up and down along the first direction XX, since the sliding rod assembly 226 is inserted in the first through hole 225A and is fixedly connected to the protective cover 223, the protective cover 23 will move up and down in the first direction XX along the sliding rod assembly 226, that is, the sliding rod assembly 226 and the connecting bracket 225 can limit the protective cover 23, so that the protective cover 23 can only move up and down along the first direction XX, avoiding the problem of the protective cover 23 shaking left and right, so as to improve the moving stability of the protective cover 23.

[0050] For example, please refer to Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the connecting bracket 225 includes a first connecting portion 2251 and a second connecting portion 2252, one end of the first connecting portion 2251 is fixedly connected to the push rod tube 222, the other end of the first connecting portion 2251 is fixedly connected to the second connecting portion 2252, and the two ends of the second connecting portion 2252 are symmetrically provided with first through holes 225A. The corresponding slide bar assembly 226 includes two slide bars, one end of the two slide bars is fixedly connected to the protective cover 223, and the other ends of the two slide bars are respectively inserted into the two first through holes 225A at the two ends of the second connecting portion 2252. In this way, by inserting the two slide bars into the two first through holes 225A, the protective cover 23 can be further limited, so that the protective cover 23 can only move up and down along the first direction XX, thereby avoiding the problem of the protective cover 23 shaking left and right, so as to further improve the moving stability of the protective cover 23. The connecting bracket 225 and the slide rod assembly 226 may also adopt other matching structures that can achieve the above functions, such as slide rails, etc., and the present application does not make any specific restrictions on this.

[0051] Optionally, the first connection part 2251 and the second connection part 2252 can be an integral structure or independent structures, and can be set based on different needs. For example, assuming that you want to reduce the manufacturing process, the first connection part 2251 and the second connection part 2252 can be an integral structure prepared by the same process. For the convenience of replacement, the first connection part 2251 and the second connection part 2252 can be independent structures for easy replacement. This application does not make any specific restrictions on this.

[0052] In order to improve the connection firmness between the slide bar assembly 226 and the protective cover 223, in one example, as shown in FIG. Figure 3As shown, the slide bar assembly 226 also includes a fixing member 2261, which is fixedly connected to the slide bar assembly 226 and the protective cover 223 respectively. In this way, the slide bar assembly 226 and the protective cover 223 are fixedly connected through the fixing member 2261 to improve the connection firmness between the slide bar assembly 226 and the protective cover 223, thereby ensuring the reliability of the slide bar assembly 226 in limiting the protective cover 223.

[0053] Optionally, the fixing member 2261 can be a fastener such as a bolt or a screw. When the slide bar assembly 226 is fixed to the protective cover 223 by fasteners such as bolts or screws, the connection is firm, and it is easy to assemble and disassemble, and the manufacturing cost is low. Furthermore, since the monitoring equipment is usually in an outdoor environment, in order to prevent the fasteners from rusting due to long-term rainfall, a protective cover (not shown in the figure) can be set on the fastener to prevent the fasteners from rusting, increase the service life of the fasteners, and thereby ensure the firmness of the connection between the slide bar assembly 226 and the protective cover 223 through the fasteners. The fixing member 2261 can also adopt other structures that can achieve the above-mentioned fixing effect, and this application does not make specific restrictions.

[0054] When the device body 1 is in the monitoring state, the lifting structure 22 drives the protective cover 23 away from the base 21, so that the device body 1 is exposed for monitoring, so as to avoid the problem that the protective cover 23 is set on the device body 1 and blocks the monitoring line of sight, so as to ensure the monitoring reliability and monitoring accuracy of the device body 1. When the device body 1 is in the dormant state (that is, the device body 1 does not need to be monitored), the protective cover 23 abuts against the base 21 to form a receiving cavity 2A, and the device body 1 is located in the receiving cavity 2A. At this time, the protective cover 23 can play a protective role in dust, rain, lightning, etc., so as to avoid the problem that natural factors such as light, wind, sand, dust, and rainfall affect the service life of the device body 1, thereby improving the service life of the device body 1 and improving a certain degree of safety.

[0055] Optionally, in order to reduce the weight of the protective cover 23 and improve the portability and response speed of the lifting structure 22 to drive the protective cover 23 to move along the first direction XX, the protective cover 23 can adopt a single-layer sealing structure and a structure with lighter material, such as copper alloy.

[0056] Optionally, the protective cover 23 can adopt a nested double-layer sealing structure, that is, the protective cover 23 can be composed of two layers of cover structure to further improve the protective effect. The specific structure of the protective cover 23 can be set according to actual needs. For example, if you want to reduce the production cost and improve the portability of the protective cover 23, the protective cover 23 can adopt a single-layer sealing structure; if you want to improve the protective effect, the protective cover 23 can adopt a nested double-layer sealing structure. This application does not make any specific restrictions on this.

[0057] In order to avoid the gap between the protective cover 23 and the base 21, which causes sand, dust, rainwater, etc. to enter the accommodating cavity 2A through the gap and affect the service life of the device body 1, in one example, as Figure 6 As shown, the protection device 2 may further include a seal 24, which is disposed around the side of the protection cover 23 facing the base 21. The seal 24 may seal the gap between the protection cover 23 and the base 21 to avoid the problem of poor sealing of the protection device 2, which may shorten the service life of the device body 1, and further improve the protection effect of the protection device 2.

[0058] Optionally, the sealing member 24 may be made of silicone or an elastic structure, and this application does not impose any specific limitation on this.

[0059] In order to avoid the problem of asynchronous control of the device main body 1 and the protection device 2, for example, the device main body 1 has started monitoring, but the protection device 2 is still mounted on the device main body 1, blocking the line of sight of the device main body 1, thereby affecting the monitoring effect of the device main body 1 and reducing the monitoring accuracy of the device main body 1, the present application realizes synchronous control of the device main body 1 and the protection device 2 through an electric control system 3 to ensure the monitoring reliability and accuracy of the device main body 1, and when controlled by an electric control system 3, the control reliability is high, and the energy consumption and cost are low.

[0060] In one example, if Figure 7 As shown, the electric control system 3 may include a fusion module 31, a transceiver module 32 and a processing module 33. The fusion module 31 receives the first control signal EN1 and the second control signal EN2. The input end of the transceiver module 32 is connected to the output end of the fusion module 31. The input end of the processing module 33 is connected to the output end of the transceiver module 32. The output end of the processing module 33 is electrically connected to the device body 1 and the protection device 2 respectively. The fusion module 31 is used to fuse the first control signal EN1 and the second control signal EN2 to obtain a third control signal EN3. The transceiver module 32 is used to receive the third control signal EN3 and send it to the processing module 33. The processing module 33 receives the third control signal EN3 and splits the third control signal EN3 into the first control signal EN1 and the second control signal EN2, and controls the device body 1 and the protection device 2 accordingly based on the split first control signal EN1 and the second control signal EN2.

[0061] Here, it is worth mentioning that the first control signal EN1 is a control signal for controlling the working state of the equipment body 1, and the second control signal EN2 is a control signal for controlling the lifting and lowering state of the protection device 2. The fusion module 31 fuses the first control signal EN1 and the second control signal EN2 into a third control signal EN3 containing the two.

[0062] In this example, an electric control system 3 realizes synchronous control of the equipment body 1 and the protection device 2. For example, assuming that the equipment body 1 needs to start monitoring, the electric control system 3 will first merge the first control signal EN1 and the second control signal EN2. At this time, the first control signal EN1 refers to the control signal for controlling the equipment body 1 to start (i.e., work), and the second control signal EN2 is a control signal for controlling the protective cover 23 in the protection device 2 to move upward along the first direction XX to move away from the equipment body 1. After the electric control system 3 merges to obtain the third control signal EN3, the transceiver module 22 transmits the third control signal EN3. After receiving the third control signal EN3, the processing module 23 performs data analysis and splitting, and then controls the equipment body 1 to start and controls the protective cover 23 to move upward along the first direction XX based on the split first control signal EN1 and the second control signal EN2. For another example, assuming that the device body 1 needs to stop monitoring, the electronic control system 3 will still first merge the first control signal EN1 and the second control signal EN2. At this time, the first control signal EN1 refers to the control signal for controlling the device body 1 to shut down (i.e., not working), and the second control signal EN2 is a control signal for controlling the protective cover 23 in the protection device 2 to move downward along the first direction XX to approach the device body 1. After the electronic control system 3 merges to obtain the third control signal EN3, the transceiver module 22 transmits the third control signal EN3. After receiving the third control signal EN3, the processing module 23 performs data analysis and splitting, and then controls the device body 1 to shut down and controls the protective cover 23 to move downward along the first direction XX based on the split first control signal EN1 and the second control signal EN2.

[0063] In this way, the fusion module 31 will first fuse the first control signal EN1 and the second control signal EN2 to obtain the third control signal EN3, and then transmit the third control signal EN3 accordingly through the transceiver module 32. At this time, the third control signal EN3 is transmitted as a whole, that is, the first control signal EN1 and the second control signal EN2 are transmitted synchronously, and then the processing module 33 performs data analysis and splitting on the third control signal EN3 to obtain the first control signal EN1 and the second control signal EN2, and then the device body 1 and the protection device 2 are controlled accordingly based on the split first control signal EN1 and the second control signal EN2. In this way, the first control signal EN1 and the second control signal EN2 are fused into the third control signal EN3 through the fusion module 31 and the transceiver module 32 for synchronous transmission, so as to avoid the asynchronous transmission of the first control signal EN1 and the second control signal EN2, that is, the problem of transmission delay of one of the control signals, so as to ensure the transmission synchronization of the first control signal EN1 and the second control signal EN2, thereby ensuring the control synchronization of the device body 1 and the protection device 2, so as to avoid the problem of control delay of the protection device 2, which causes it to still be set on the device body 1, blocking the line of sight of the device body 1, and then affecting the monitoring effect of the device body 1, thereby improving the monitoring accuracy of the device body 1. Secondly, the processing module 33 can centrally process the received fusion signal (that is, the third control signal EN3), which can more efficiently utilize computing resources and memory compared with processing multiple independent signals at the same time, and realize the synchronous control of the device body 1 and the protection device 2 by an electric control system 3, with high control reliability, low energy consumption and low cost.

[0064] In order to enable the transceiver module 32 to receive the third control signal EN3, in one example, Figure 8 As shown, the electric control system 3 also includes an interface module 34, and the transceiver module 32 can receive the third control signal EN3 via the interface module 34 to ensure the reception reliability of the third control signal EN3. Here, it is worth noting that the transceiver module 32 provided in the present application not only receives the third control signal EN3 from the interface module 34, but also receives signals from other interfaces, for example, signals from the antenna and its interface and the Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) interface, etc. At this time, the electric control system 3 can also include a 4G module 35, which combines the signals from the antenna and its interface and the SIM interface and sends them to the transceiver module 32, and the transceiver module 32 can also send corresponding signals to the 4G module 35, and no specific restrictions are made to this.

[0065] Optionally, the 4G module 35 may use a 4G data transfer unit (DTU) to transmit and send data, and the transceiver module 32 may also use a 4G DTU, to which the present application does not impose any specific limitation.

[0066] Optionally, the transceiver module 32 may include an RS232 transceiver, which can convert the logic level signal of the device into a signal that can be transmitted over a long distance and can provide signal enhancement to overcome the signal attenuation problem; the transceiver module 32 may also include an RS485 transceiver, which can realize the conversion of differential signals, has strong anti-interference ability, and has a long signal transmission distance. When the transceiver module 32 includes an RS232 transceiver or an RS485 transceiver, the transceiver module 32 can adopt a low-voltage digital circuit standard of transistor-transistor logic (TTL), and this application does not make specific restrictions on this.

[0067] In order to improve the reliability of the action of the protection device 2 controlled by the second control signal EN2, in one example, Fig. 9 As shown, the electronic control system 3 also includes a control module 36, the input end of the control module 36 is connected to the output end of the processing module 33, the output end of the control module 36 is connected to the protection device 2, and the control module 35 is used to receive the second control signal EN2 and control the action of the protection device 2 based on the second control signal EN2 to improve the control reliability of the protection device 2.

[0068] In order to enable the control module 36 to control the protection device 2 based on the second control signal EN2, in one example, Fig.10 As shown, the control module 36 may include a first switch unit 361, a second switch unit 362 and a controller 363. The first switch unit 361 is connected to the motor 221 and the battery 227 in the protection device 2, respectively. The second switch unit 361 is connected to the motor 221 and the battery 227, respectively. Here, it is worth noting that the battery 227 at this time is a power battery that provides energy for the motor 221. The controller 363 is connected to the controlled end of the first switch unit 361 and the controlled end of the second switch unit 362. The controller 363 is used to receive the second control signal EN2, and control the on and off of the first switch unit 361 and the second switch unit 362 based on the second control signal EN2, so as to control the motor 221 to rotate forward or reverse accordingly, so as to drive the push rod 223 in the protection device 2 to move upward or downward along the first direction XX.

[0069] Optionally, the first switch unit 361 and the second switch unit 362 can adopt N-type Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor field effect transistor (NMOS), P-type Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor field effect transistor (PMOS), transistor, relay or other device or circuit capable of realizing switching function, and the present application does not make any specific limitation on this.

[0070] For example, Fig.11 As shown, the first switch unit 361 includes a first resistor R1, a first sub-switch K1, a second resistor R2 and a second sub-switch K2, one end of the first resistor R1 is connected to one end of the motor 221, the other end of the first resistor R1 is connected to the first end of the first sub-switch K1, the second end of the first sub-switch K1 is connected to the positive electrode of the battery 227, one end of the second resistor R2 is connected to the other end of the motor 221, the other end of the second resistor R2 is connected to the first end of the second sub-switch K2, the second end of the second sub-switch K2 is connected to the positive electrode of the battery 227, and the controller 363 is connected to the controlled end of the first sub-switch K1 and the controlled end of the second sub-switch K2 to control the on and off of the first sub-switch K1 and the second sub-switch K2 accordingly. The second switch unit 362 includes a third resistor R3, a third sub-switch K3, a fourth resistor R4 and a fourth sub-switch K4. One end of the third resistor R3 is connected to one end of the motor 221, the other end of the third resistor R3 is connected to the first end of the third sub-switch K3, the second end of the third sub-switch K3 is connected to the negative electrode of the battery 227, one end of the fourth resistor R4 is connected to the other end of the motor 221, the other end of the fourth resistor R4 is connected to the first end of the fourth sub-switch K4, and the second end of the fourth sub-switch K4 is connected to the negative electrode of the battery 227. The controller 363 is connected to the controlled end of the third sub-switch K3 and the controlled end of the fourth sub-switch K4 to correspondingly control the on and off of the third sub-switch K3 and the fourth sub-switch K4.

[0071] In this example, when the protective device 2 needs to be away from the device body 1, the controller 363 controls the first sub-switch K1 and the fourth sub-switch K4 to be connected, and at this time the motor 221 rotates forward to drive the protective device 2 away from the device body 1, so that the device body 1 is exposed; when the protective device 2 needs to be close to the device body 1 to play a protective role, the controller 363 controls the second sub-switch K2 and the third sub-switch K3 to be connected, and at this time the motor 221 rotates reversely to drive the protective device 2 close to the device body 1 to play a protective role. In this way, the controller 363 can control the motor 221 to rotate forward or reversely by controlling the on and off of the first sub-switch K1, the second sub-switch K2, the third sub-switch K3 and the fourth sub-switch K4, so as to drive the push rod 223 in the protective device 2 to move upward or downward along the first direction XX, so that the device body 1 is exposed or sleeved on the device body 1, and the control is simple.

[0072] In summary, when the device body 1 needs to start monitoring, the electronic control system 3 will control the lifting structure 22 to operate while controlling the device body 1 to start working, so as to drive the protective cover 23 to move upward along the first direction XX, so that the device body 1 is exposed, so as to avoid the problem that the protective cover 23 is set on the device body 1 and blocks the monitoring line of sight, thereby ensuring the monitoring reliability and monitoring accuracy of the device body 1. When the device body 1 does not need to be monitored, the electronic control system 3 will control the lifting structure 22 to operate while controlling the device body 1 to start working. The lifting structure 22 drives the protective cover 23 to move downward along the first direction XX to approach the base 21 until it abuts against the base 21 to form a receiving chamber 2A, and the device body 1 is located in the receiving chamber 2A. At this time, the protective cover 23 cooperates with the base 21 to play a protective role such as dustproof, rainproof, and lightning protection, thereby avoiding the problem that natural factors such as wind, sand, dust, and rain affect the service life of the device body 1, thereby improving the service life of the device body 1. Among them, the first control signal EN1 and the second control signal EN2 are fused into the third control signal EN3 for synchronous transmission through the fusion module 31 and the transceiver module 32 in the electric control system 3, so as to avoid the asynchronous transmission of the first control signal EN1 and the second control signal EN2, that is, the problem of transmission delay of one of the control signals, so as to ensure the transmission synchronization of the first control signal EN1 and the second control signal EN2, thereby ensuring the control synchronization of the device body 1 and the protection device 2, so as to avoid the control delay of the protection device 2, which causes it to still be set on the device body 1, blocking the line of sight of the device body 1, and then affecting the monitoring effect of the device body 1, thereby improving the monitoring accuracy of the device body 1. Secondly, the processing module 33 can centrally process the received fusion signal (that is, the third control signal EN3), which can more efficiently utilize computing resources and memory compared with processing multiple independent signals at the same time, and realize the synchronous control of the device body 1 and the protection device 2 by one electric control system 3, with high control reliability, low energy consumption and low cost.
