Description

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of emergency lighthouses, and in particular to an intelligently controlled portable lighthouse. Background Art

[0002] In many scenarios, such as field operations, emergency rescue, and construction sites, temporary lighting equipment is needed to provide sufficient light. Traditional lighting equipment can only illuminate in a flat surface, which is dazzling, has a limited lighting range, and violates the natural lighting mode. For this reason, mobile portable lighthouses came into being. They use lifting rods to lift the lighting fixtures to a higher position and illuminate the ground, thereby expanding the lighting range, meeting the lighting requirements of the human body, and preventing glare during ground operations.

[0003] However, existing portable lighthouses lack a stable support mechanism. During the lifting process of the lighting fixture, the center of gravity of the lighthouse as a whole continues to rise. Under the influence of the lighthouse's own vibration and external wind, the lighthouse as a whole is prone to shaking or even falling. In addition, when the lighting fixture is raised or lowered, the staff may make mistakes and forget to fix the lighthouse in advance, resulting in the lighthouse sliding and shifting due to erroneous operation.

[0004] To this end, how to design an intelligently controlled portable lighthouse that can improve the stability of the lighthouse equipment during operation, absorb the vibration generated by the lighthouse equipment during operation, improve the equipment's resistance to external interference, and improve the portability of the lighthouse equipment is a technical problem that technicians in this field need to solve.

[0030] In order to facilitate the understanding of the present invention, the present invention will be described more fully below with reference to the relevant drawings. The preferred embodiments of the present invention are given in the drawings. However, the present invention can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein.

The terms used herein in the specification of the present invention are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention. The term "and / or" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more related listed items.

[0033] The present invention provides a portable lighthouse 10 with intelligent control, which is intended to improve the stability of the lighthouse during operation. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it includes: an equipment body 100, a lighting module 200, a telescopic module 300 and a supporting module 400, the lighting module 200 is installed on the equipment body 100 through the telescopic module 300, and the supporting module 400 is installed on the equipment body 100.

[0034] Among them, the device body 100 is provided with an integrated controller (not shown);

[0035] like Figure 3As shown, the telescopic module 300 includes: a multi-section mast cylinder 310, an air pump 320 and a solenoid valve 330. The multi-section mast cylinder 310 and the air pump 320 are connected through an air pipe 340. The solenoid valve 330 is installed on the air pipe 340. The air pump 320 and the solenoid valve 330 are both electrically connected to the integrated controller. When working, the air pump 320 is inflated or the solenoid valve 330 is deflated to realize the ascending or descending movement of each section of the multi-section mast cylinder 310, thereby driving the lighting module 200 to rise and fall.

[0036] like Figure 4 As shown, the support module 400 includes a support leg 410 and a driving component 420 for driving the support leg 410 to deflect. The number of the support leg 410 and the driving component 420 are both multiple, and the support leg 410 and the driving component 420 correspond one to one. The driving component 420 is controlled by an integrated controller, and the support leg 410 has a storage state (such as Figure 1 ) and expanded state (as shown Figure 2 In the present invention, in order to achieve stability during operation, the telescopic module 300 can only be triggered by the integrated controller when the support leg 410 is in the unfolded state, thereby driving the lighting module 200 to rise and fall. The specific working principle will be described below.

[0037] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, the air pipe 340 is formed by: a main pipe 341, a first branch pipe 342 and a second branch pipe 343, which are connected by a three-way interface 344. In addition, the main pipe 341 is connected to the air pump 320, the first branch pipe 342 is connected to the multi-section mast cylinder 310, and the second branch pipe 343 is connected to the solenoid valve 330. When the multi-section mast cylinder 310 needs to be extended, the solenoid valve 330 is closed, and the air pump 320 fills the multi-section mast cylinder 310 with gas through the main pipe 341 and the first branch pipe 342; when the multi-section mast cylinder 310 needs to be retracted, the air pump 320 is closed, the solenoid valve 330 is opened, and the gas in the multi-section mast cylinder 310 is discharged to the outside through the first branch pipe 342 and the second branch pipe 343. Preferably, a throttle valve 345 and a one-way valve 346 are provided on the main pipe 341 to adjust and control the gas flow rate and flow direction in the main pipe 341.

[0038] In this embodiment, a plurality of rollers 110 (such as Figure 2As shown in FIG. 1 , a plurality of legs 410 are evenly distributed around the device body 100. When the legs 410 are in the retracted state, the legs 410 are tilted upward and fit the outer surface of the device body 100; when the legs 410 are in the unfolded state, the ends of the legs 410 are pressed against the ground, and the device body 100 is lifted up and suspended above the ground. After being suspended, the rollers 110 are away from the ground, and the device body 100 is completely supported by the legs 410, which can prevent the device body 100 from sliding accidentally and causing displacement.

[0039] Preferably, a foot pad 411 is provided at the end of the support leg 410 (eg Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the foot pad 411 is hinged to the support leg 410 by a rotating shaft. When the support leg 410 is unfolded, the foot pad 411 will be pressed on the ground to prevent the end of the support leg 410 from being worn, and the rotatable foot pad 411 can better adapt to the uneven ground, so that the device body 100 can be better kept stable.

[0040] In combination with the above structure, the lifting and lowering adjustment principle of the lighting module 200 of the present invention is explained below. Figure 5 As shown:

[0041] In order to ensure that the device body 100 can remain stable during the lifting and lowering adjustment process, the support module 400 needs to be changed from the storage state to the unfolded state before adjustment to achieve stable support. Therefore, the integrated controller of the present invention will preferentially identify the state of the support module 400 to prevent staff from making mistakes.

[0042] Specifically, first, the integrated controller starts the driving component 420, which drives the support legs 410 to flip, and then changes from the stored state to the unfolded state. At this time, the multiple support legs 410 together lift up the device body 100 in the shape of spider legs. Then, after the integrated controller determines that the support module 400 has deformed into place, it recognizes the remote control command of the staff. When it is necessary to lift the lighting module 200, the integrated controller starts the air pump 320 and closes the solenoid valve 330 at the same time, so that the gas filled by the air pump 320 will pass through the main pipe 341 and the first branch pipe 342 in sequence, and finally be filled into the multi-section mast cylinder 310, thereby extending the multi-section mast cylinder 310 and then lifting the lighting module 200 to a higher place; when it is necessary to lower the lighting module 200, the integrated controller turns off the air pump 320 and opens the solenoid valve 330 at the same time, and the gas in the multi-section mast cylinder 310 is squeezed by the gravity of the lighting module 200, and it will be discharged from the multi-section mast cylinder 310 and pass through the first branch pipe 342 and the second branch pipe 343 in sequence, and finally be discharged to the outside by the solenoid valve 330, thereby contracting the multi-section mast cylinder 310 and lowering the height of the lighting module 200.

[0043] Compared with the prior art, the support module 400 of the present invention is linked with the telescopic module 300 through an integrated controller, so that the multi-section mast cylinder 310 can only perform lifting and lowering movements when the support module 400 is in a stable unfolded state. In the unfolded state, the multiple legs 410 are supported on the ground in a spider-leg style, and the device body 100 is lifted up and suspended in the air, which can absorb / reduce the vibration and noise generated by the lighthouse during operation, while improving the resistance to crosswind (external force interference) and ensuring the stability of the portable lighthouse 10 during operation.

[0044] In this embodiment, the driving component 420 is a screw rod electric push rod structure, the driving component 420 is electrically connected to the integrated controller, one end of the driving component 420 is hinged to the outer frame of the device body 100, and the other end is hinged to the end of the support leg 410. The extension of the driving component 420 drives the support leg 410 to flip, thereby causing the support leg 410 to unfold or retract. The integrated controller determines the distance extended by the driving component 420 by measuring the rotation angle and number of turns of the screw rod, thereby determining the current state of the support leg 410.

[0045] In other embodiments, the driving component 420 adopts an existing cylinder structure, one end of the driving component 420 is hinged to the outer frame of the device body 100, and the other end is hinged to the end of the support leg 410, and the driving component 420 is connected to the air pump 320. The extension of the driving component 420 drives the support leg 410 to flip, thereby causing the support leg 410 to unfold or retract. The integrated controller measures the gas flow rate filled into the driving component 420, and then determines the distance extended by the driving component 420, thereby determining the current state of the support leg 410. Of course, the driving component 420 can also adopt an existing hydraulic rod structure.

[0046] Furthermore, due to its heavy weight, the portable lighthouse 10 needs to be transported to or unloaded from a truck by means of auxiliary tools such as a crane or a forklift. In order to improve the convenience of the portable lighthouse 10 during loading and unloading, a lifting module 500 (such as a lifting module 500) is provided at the bottom of the device body 100 of the present invention. Figure 2 shown).

[0047] Specifically, Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the lifting module 500 includes: a bottom frame 510, a top frame 520, a connecting frame 530 and an extension frame 540. The connecting frame 530 is X-shaped. The lower end and the upper end of one side of the connecting frame 530 are respectively hinged with the bottom frame 510 and the top frame 520, and the lower end and the upper end of the other side are respectively slidably connected with the bottom frame 510 and the top frame 520. The connecting frame 530 is provided with an auxiliary driving assembly 550 that can drive it to open and close, thereby driving the top frame 520 to rise and fall. The piston rod of the auxiliary driving assembly 550 is extended or shortened, thereby changing the distance at the intersection of the top frame 520 and the connecting frame 530, thereby causing the connecting frame 530 to open and close and deform, driving the top frame 520 to rise and fall.

[0048] Moreover, the extension frame 540 is slidably and telescopically arranged on the top frame 520, and the device body 100 is fixedly connected to the extension frame 540. In other words, the device body 100 and the extension frame 540 are connected as a whole, and the two can slide relative to the top frame 520.

[0049] The working principle of the lifting module 500 of the present invention is as follows:

[0050] When not in use, the connection frame 530 is folded together, and the lifting module 500 is folded at the bottom of the device body 100, so as not to affect the movement of the device body 100;

[0051] When loading, first move the portable lighthouse 10 to the vicinity of the truck, then the auxiliary drive assembly 550 drives the connecting frame 530 to deform and open, and the top frame 520 gradually rises until the device body 100 is lifted to the same height as the bottom of the carriage. Then, push the device body 100 toward the carriage, and the extension frame 540 and the device body 100 slide relative to the top frame 520 under the action of the thrust, that is, the extension frame 540 extends from the top frame 520, so that the device body 100 is misaligned with the main body of the lifting module 500, and the extension frame 540 and the device body 100 enter the carriage (such as Figure 8 As shown), at this time, the gravity of the equipment body 100 is supported by the truck. Then, the auxiliary drive assembly 550 causes the connecting frame 530 to close, and the bottom frame 510 gradually rises until it is re-attached to the top frame 520. Then, the staff pushes the bottom frame 510 and the top frame 520 toward the equipment body 100, so that the extension frame 540 retracts into the top frame 520, and the lifting module 500 returns to the bottom of the equipment body 100, thus completing the loading operation;

[0052] When unloading, the order of changes in the lifting module 500 is opposite to that of the above-mentioned loading. The staff pulls the bottom frame 510, so that the lifting module 500 except the extension frame 540 is suspended outside the car; then driven by the auxiliary drive assembly 550, the extension frame 540 opens and drives the bottom frame 510 to descend until the bottom frame 510 is pressed on the ground. Then the equipment body 100 is pushed out of the car and slides to the top of the top frame 520. Then, the extension frame 540 retracts back into the top frame 520, and under the drive of the auxiliary drive assembly 550, the lifting module 500 gradually changes back to the retracted state, so that the equipment body 100 also gradually drops to the ground, thus completing the unloading operation.

[0053] It should be noted that compared with the prior art, the lifting module 500 of the present invention has the characteristics of small space occupation and easy operation. During the loading and unloading process, the top frame 520 and the bottom frame 510 are lifted and lowered vertically, and the projected area and space occupied are smaller, which can be better adapted to different rescue sites. Secondly, during the loading and unloading process, the truck does not need to cooperate with the operation. After the lifting module 500 lifts the equipment body 100, the staff can smoothly push the equipment body 100 to move it into the car, and the position of the truck does not need to be changed during the whole process.

[0054] Preferably, the auxiliary drive assembly 550 is a cylinder structure, and the auxiliary drive assembly 550 is connected to the air pump 320 , and the integrated controller controls the air pump 320 to inflate or deflate the auxiliary drive assembly 550 to achieve the extension and retraction of the auxiliary drive assembly 550 .

[0055] In this embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown, the lighting module 200 includes a pan head 210 and a plurality of lamps 220 . The pan head 210 is installed at the end of a multi-section mast cylinder 310 . The plurality of lamps 220 are evenly distributed on the pan head 210 , and the pan head 210 can adjust the direction and tilt angle of the lamps 220 .

[0056] In summary, the intelligently controlled portable lighthouse 10 of the present invention can improve the stability of the lighthouse equipment during operation, absorb the vibration generated by the lighthouse equipment during operation, improve the equipment's resistance to external interference, and improve the portability of the lighthouse equipment.

[0057] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present invention, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the invention patent. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this field, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the present invention shall be subject to the attached claims.
