Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of construction safety equipment, and in particular to a safety helmet for power pole tower construction. Background Art

[0002] In the construction of power poles and towers, such as line maintenance, insulator cleaning and replacement, construction workers are required to wear safety helmets in accordance with the operating procedures. In some construction operations, multiple construction workers are required to cooperate with the work, and multiple construction workers are scattered between two adjacent power poles and the lines between the poles. Therefore, multiple construction workers need to communicate with each other by voice to transmit construction information in real time. The existing communication method mainly uses walkie-talkies for communication, and usually each construction worker is equipped with a walkie-talkie. In order to facilitate communication, construction workers will install walkie-talkies on safety helmets to avoid using handheld walkie-talkies, which is more convenient for construction. However, the existing communication method has the following shortcomings: because the construction workers are located on the power poles and towers, under the influence of high winds, it is difficult for the construction workers to hear the sound output by the walkie-talkie clearly, and when inputting sound, there will be more wind noise, which will lead to communication difficulties between construction workers. Summary of the invention

[0003] The purpose of the embodiment of the present invention is to provide a safety helmet for power tower construction, which has an integrated communication function and strong wind noise resistance, thereby ensuring smooth communication between construction workers.

[0004] To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0005] A safety helmet for power pole tower construction is provided, comprising a helmet body and a communication module arranged on the helmet body, the communication module comprising a voice output component and a voice input component, the voice output component comprising an ear guard, a sponge cover and a speaker, the ear guard is arranged on the helmet body, the sponge cover is arranged on the inner side of the ear guard, the sponge cover is used to cover the ears of construction personnel, the speaker is arranged on the inner side of the ear guard and is located in the sponge cover, the voice input component comprises a wind shield and a microphone arranged on the inner side of the wind shield, and the wind shield is installed on the ear guard.

[0006] Furthermore, there are two voice output components, and the two voice output components are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the cap body.

[0007] Furthermore, the wind shield is an arc-shaped plate, and two ends of the wind shield are respectively connected to the ear guards in the two voice output components.

[0008] Furthermore, one end of the wind shield is rotatably connected to one of the ear guards, and the other end of the wind shield is magnetically connected or snap-fitted to the other ear guard.

[0009] Furthermore, the microphone is arranged in the middle area of ​​the wind shield so that the microphone can face the mouth of the construction worker, and the width of the middle area of ​​the wind shield is greater than the width of the end area.

[0010] Furthermore, the ear guard is rotatably connected to the cap body, and the ear guard can be flipped along the inward and outward directions of the cap body.

[0011] Furthermore, the cap body is provided with a ventilation hole, the interior and the exterior of the cap body are communicated through the ventilation hole, and the ventilation hole is close to the rear side of the cap body.

[0012] Furthermore, the communication module also includes a battery and a mainboard electrically connected to the battery, a receiving cavity is provided on the rear side of the cap body, the battery and the mainboard are installed in the receiving cavity, and the speaker and the microphone are both electrically connected to the mainboard.

[0013] Furthermore, the communication module also includes an antenna component, which is electrically connected to the mainboard. The top of the cap body is provided with a groove, and the antenna component is installed in the groove.

[0014] Furthermore, the cap body includes a protective shell and an inner lining arranged inside the protective shell, the inner lining is used to fit the head of the construction worker, and there is a gap between the inner lining and the protective shell.

[0015] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: by integrating the communication module with the cap body, the construction workers can perform voice communication after wearing the cap body, which is convenient to use. The communication module includes a voice output component and a voice input component. When the construction workers receive the sound of the communication module, since the sponge cover is directly covered on the ears of the construction workers, the influence of the high-altitude wind noise on the hearing can be reduced, so that the construction workers can easily hear the sound from the speaker. And when the construction workers input sound into the microphone, the windproof plate blocks the wind, which reduces the influence of the high-altitude wind noise on the sound input. Therefore, by setting the voice output component and the voice input component, the influence of wind noise on the voice communication of the construction workers can be effectively reduced, making the communication between multiple construction workers smoother.

[0024] In order to make the technical problems solved by the present invention, the technical solutions adopted and the technical effects achieved clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present invention provides a safety helmet for power pole tower construction, including a helmet body 1 and a communication module 2. The helmet body 1 is similar to the construction safety helmet in the prior art, and is used to be worn on the head of the construction worker to provide safety protection for the head of the construction worker. The communication module 2 is used for communication between multiple construction workers, and its main structure and function are similar to the walkie-talkie in the prior art. The specific structure and working principle of the communication module 2 will not be repeated here. In this embodiment, the communication module 2 and the helmet body 1 are integrated into one, so that the safety helmet for power pole tower construction has both safety protection and communication functions, so as to facilitate construction workers to communicate during the construction process.

[0026] The communication module 2 includes a voice output component 21 and a voice input component 22. Among them, the voice output component 21 is used to output sound to the outside to obtain voice information sent by other construction workers. The voice input component 22 is used to input sound to send voice information to other construction workers. The voice output component 21 includes an ear guard 211, a sponge cover 212 and a speaker 213. The ear guard 211 is installed at the bottom of the cap body 1, and the ear guard 211 is located on the left and right sides of the cap body 1. The sponge cover 212 is a ring structure, which is made of soft sponge. The sponge cover 212 is installed on the inner side of the ear guard 211, and when the construction worker wears the cap body 1, the sponge cover 212 is covered on the ear of the construction worker. This method allows the ears of the construction workers to be accommodated in the sponge cover 212, reducing the noise impact of the wind during the high-altitude construction process. The speaker 213 is used to output sound, and the speaker 213 is installed on the inner side of the ear guard 211, and the speaker 213 is located inside the sponge cover 212, so that the speaker 213 can be close to the ear of the construction personnel, and the sound emitted by the speaker 213 can be avoided from being disturbed by the wind under the action of the sponge cover 212, so as to facilitate the construction personnel to hear the sound clearly. The voice input component 22 includes a windproof plate 221 and a microphone 223. The microphone 223 is used to input sound, and the microphone 223 is arranged on the inner side of the windproof plate 221, and the microphone 223 is directly facing the mouth of the construction personnel. The windproof plate 221 plays a role of windproof, and the windproof plate 221 is installed on the ear guard 211. When the construction personnel wear the cap body 1, the windproof plate 221 is located in front of the construction personnel's mouth to block the wind from blowing directly to the construction personnel's mouth, so as to reduce the influence of the wind on the sound input by the construction personnel to the microphone 223.

[0027] It should be noted that the front, back, left, right, inside, outside and other directions described in this embodiment are all based on the construction worker wearing the cap. For example, after the cap body 1 is worn, the side close to the head is the inside, and the side away from the head is the outside.

[0028] Specifically, refer to Figure 3As shown, the cap body 1 includes a protective shell 11, a liner 12 and a hat band 13. The protective shell 11 is made of high-strength engineering plastics. The protective shell 11 is the main part of the cap body 1, which has the overall shape of the cap body 1 and plays a protective role on the head. The liner 12 is made of soft plastic or cotton cloth material, and the liner 12 is used to directly contact the head to improve the wearing comfort of the construction personnel. The liner 12 is installed inside the protective shell 11, and there is a gap between the liner 12 and the protective shell 11. It can be understood that the protective shell 11 and the liner 12 are spaced apart, and the gap between the two forms an airway for airflow. In high-altitude construction operations, the wind circulates through the airway, which can dissipate heat from the construction personnel's heads on the one hand, avoid stuffiness, and improve wearing comfort; on the other hand, it can enable the airflow to flow smoothly through the airway, avoiding the airflow from forming turbulence inside the cap body 1 and generating large noise, thereby avoiding causing greater interference to the construction personnel's voice communication. One end of the chin strap 13 is fixed to one side of the cap body 1 in the left-right direction, and the other end is detachably connected to the other end of the cap body 1 in the left-right direction through a buckle, so that the cap body 1 is firmly worn on the head of the construction worker through the chin strap 13 .

[0029] The protective shell 11 is also provided with ventilation holes 15, and the inside and outside of the cap body 1 are connected through the ventilation holes 15. The ventilation holes 15 can be provided in a plurality, and the plurality of through holes 15 are arranged at intervals along the height direction of the cap body 1. The ventilation holes 15 are provided in the area close to the rear side of the cap body 1. By providing the ventilation holes 15, on the one hand, the airflow entering the inside of the cap body 1 can be timely distributed to avoid generating strong wind noise. On the other hand, the heat dissipation performance of the entire cap body 1 can also be improved, and the wearing comfort can be improved.

[0030] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 As shown, there are two voice output components 21, and the two voice output components 21 are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the cap body 1. That is, the number of ear guards 211 is two, and the two ear guards 211 are respectively installed on the left and right sides of the protective shell 11. A sponge cover 212 and a speaker 213 are provided on each ear guard 211. For the convenience of wearing and use, the ear guard 211 is rotatably connected to the protective shell 11, and the ear guard 211 can be flipped along the inside and outside direction of the cap body 1. The ear guard 211 is set as a flippable structure, and the ear guard 211 can be flipped up when the communication module 2 is not needed, so as to facilitate close direct communication between construction workers.

[0031] Specifically, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, the windshield 221 is an arc-shaped plate, and the two ends of the windshield 221 are respectively connected to the two ear guards 211. For easy wearing, one end of the windshield 221 is rotatably connected to one of the ear guards 211, so that the windshield 221 can rotate relative to the ear guards 211, that is, the opening and closing of the windshield 221 is realized, which is convenient for wearing. The other end of the windshield 221 is magnetically connected or snap-fitted to the other ear guard 211. In this embodiment, a connector 222 is provided at one end of the windshield 221, and the connector 222 can be a magnet or a buckle, so that the windshield 221 can be detachably connected to the ear guard 211 through the connector 222.

[0032] In another embodiment, referring to Figure 5 As shown, in order to improve the noise-proof effect during voice input, the microphone 223 is arranged in the middle area of ​​the length direction of the wind shield 221 so that the microphone 223 can face the mouth of the construction worker. The width dimension B1 of the middle area of ​​the wind shield 221 is greater than the width dimension B2 of the end area. The purpose of this structure is to increase the windproof area of ​​the installation area of ​​the microphone 223 and reduce the interference of wind noise during voice input by the construction worker. In addition, the microphone 223 is also covered with a sponge layer, which is used to further reduce the influence of wind noise.

[0033] Specifically, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the communication module 2 also includes a switch 23, a battery, a mainboard and an antenna assembly 24. The battery is used to provide power to the entire communication module 2. The mainboard is provided with chips and various processors for receiving, processing, and sending signals. The antenna assembly 24 is used to receive and send voice signals. The switch 23 is used to control the opening and frequency modulation of the entire communication module 2. The switch 23, the battery, the antenna assembly 24, the speaker 213 in the voice output assembly 21, and the microphone 223 in the voice input assembly 22 are all electrically connected to the mainboard.

[0034] The rear side of the protective shell 11 is provided with a accommodating cavity 16, and the battery and the main board are installed in the accommodating cavity 16. By installing the battery and the main board on the rear side of the cap body 1, most of the weight of the entire communication module 2 can be concentrated on the rear side of the cap body 1, which is conducive to improving the wearing comfort. The switch 23 is installed on the front side of the protective shell 11, which is convenient for construction personnel to operate the switch 23. A groove 14 is provided on the top of the protective shell 11, and the antenna assembly 24 is installed in the groove 14. Installing the antenna assembly 24 on the top of the cap body 1 can make the antenna assembly 24 receive and send voice signals in a wider direction, thereby improving the signal transmission effect. At the same time, by providing the groove 14, the antenna assembly 24 can be installed in the groove 14 to prevent the top of the cap body 1 of the antenna assembly 24 from being too protruding and easily damaged by collision.

[0035] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: by integrating the communication module 2 with the cap body 1, the construction workers can perform voice communication after wearing the cap body 1, which is convenient for use. The communication module 2 includes a voice output component 21 and a voice input component 22. When the construction workers receive the sound of the communication module 2, since the sponge cover 212 is directly covered on the ears of the construction workers, the influence of the high-altitude wind noise on the hearing can be reduced, so that the construction workers can easily hear the sound emitted by the speaker 213. And, when the construction workers input sound to the microphone 223, due to the wind blocking effect of the wind shield 221 on the wind, the influence of the high-altitude wind noise on the sound input can be reduced. Therefore, by setting the voice output component 21 and the voice input component 22, the influence of wind noise on the voice communication of the construction workers can be effectively reduced, making the communication between multiple construction workers smoother.

[0036] The above contents are only preferred embodiments of the present invention. For ordinary technicians in this field, according to the concept of the present invention, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scopes. The content of this specification should not be understood as limiting the present invention.
