DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] Reference Figure 1-2 ,The present invention provides a technical solution: a new intelligent anti-electricity theft meter box, comprising: a control module 1, a data acquisition and transmission module, a detection and identification module 3, and a power supply module 4;

[0029] The data acquisition and transmission module is electrically connected to the control module 1 and is used to monitor and store the real-time environmental status of the meter box;

[0030] The power supply module 4 supplies power to the control module 1, the data acquisition and storage module 2, and the detection and identification module 3;

[0031] The detection and identification module 3 is electrically connected to the controller 1 and is used to detect and identify the state of the meter box; the detection and identification module 3 includes: an identity recognition module 31, a circuit breaker 32, a box door detection switch 33, a strong magnetic detection module 34, a strong electric detection module 35, and a vibration detection module 36;

[0032] The identity recognition module 31 is used for staff identity recognition, and only authorized staff can operate the door of the meter box. The circuit breaker 32 is used to control the power on and off status of the electric energy metering device; the door detection switch 33 is used to identify the opening and closing status of the meter box; the strong magnetic detection module 34 and the strong electric detection module 35 are used to identify the strong magnetic and strong electric interference status of the electric energy meter; the vibration detection module 36 is used to identify the movement status of the electric energy meter.

[0033] As a preferred embodiment, the strong magnetic detection module 34 and the strong electric detection module 35 are separate modules, which are connected to the anti-electricity theft system via RS485.

[0034] As a preferred embodiment, the data transmission module 22 also includes a built-in 5G communication module, through which a signal connection is established with the administrator.

[0035] Embodiment 1

[0036] When the electric energy meter needs to be inspected and maintained, the 5G communication module receives the relevant staff information and the electronic key and transmits it to the control module 1. The control module 1 matches the staff information and the bound electronic key through the identity recognition module 31. After the information is accurately matched, the control module 1 releases the warning state of the meter box door detection switch 33, that is, the staff can open the meter box door normally to perform daily inspection and maintenance on the electric energy meter; at the same time, after completing the inspection and maintenance of the electric energy meter, the meter box door is closed. At this time, the control module 1 controls the door detection switch 33 to reopen the warning state. If the control module 1 detects that the door detection switch 33 is in a disconnected state for a long time, it will send an abnormal alarm confirmation to the administrator through the 5G communication module. If the confirmation information is still in the maintenance state, the abnormal alarm is lifted. If the confirmation information is that the maintenance is completed, it means that the staff forgot to close the door in time, that is, the on-site staff needs to close the door in time and reactivate the door detection switch 33, thereby contacting the abnormal alarm.

[0037] As a preferred embodiment, the data acquisition and transmission module includes: a camera 21, a data transmission module 22, and a data storage module 23;

[0038] The camera 21 and the data transmission module 22 are electrically connected to the control module 1 respectively. The control module 1 processes the image captured by the camera 21 and transmits it to the data storage module 23 for storage through the data transmission module 22; the data storage module 23 is electrically connected to the data transmission module 22.

[0039] Embodiment 2

[0040] The control module 1 records the shaking posture of the meter box in real time through the vibration detection module 36. When the shaking posture of the meter box collected by the vibration detection module 36 is identified as abnormal shaking by the control module 1, the control module 1 turns on the camera 21, and transmits the surrounding environment of the meter box to the administrator in real time through the 5G transmission module, and at the same time sends out an abnormal alarm signal to remind the management staff. Then the administrator identifies the surrounding environment of the meter box through the real-time transmission picture. If there is no abnormal phenomenon, the abnormal alarm information is actively eliminated. At the same time, the camera 21 is turned off and the clip is saved and recorded through the data storage module 23 for subsequent viewing; if the meter box shakes continuously due to other natural factors such as external people and animals, the camera 21 is always on to record the scene and save it through the data storage module 23. At the same time, the management personnel promptly dispatch outbound staff to the scene of the meter box for exploration, thereby preventing damage to the electric energy meter and eliminating the occurrence of human theft of electricity. After the outbound staff completes the abnormal processing, the administrator eliminates the abnormal warning information and the camera 21 is turned off.

[0041] Embodiment 3

[0042] When the strong magnetic detection module 34 and the strong electric detection module 35 detect strong magnetic or strong electric shock interference around the electric energy meter, the information is transmitted to the control module 1. The control module 1 turns on the camera 21 to collect evidence of the surrounding environment, and transmits the image to the administrator in real time through the 5G network communication module, and sends an abnormal information warning. After receiving the abnormal warning, the administrator checks the real-time image sent back to judge the environment around the meter box, and sends staff to the scene for inspection. If it is caused by human factors, it can be discovered and dealt with in time to prevent electricity thieves from interfering with the normal operation of the electric energy meter through strong magnetism, strong electric shock and other means, thereby achieving the purpose of stealing electricity. If it is not caused by human factors, the factors causing strong electric shock or strong magnetic phenomenon are promptly checked, and at the same time, the control module 1 controls the circuit breaker 32 to cut off the circuit path to prevent the strong magnetic and strong electric shock environment from causing damage to the electric energy meter.

[0043] It should be noted that when the abnormal warning information appears, the control module 1 promptly cuts off the path of the electric energy meter to avoid line breaking; after the abnormal information is processed, the control module 1 turns on the path of the electric energy meter to allow it to continue to work normally.

[0044] As a preferred embodiment, the control module 1 includes: parameter setting, remote control, and alarm management;

[0045] The parameters are set to set and modify the installation address of the energy meter, administrator authority and electronic key.

[0046] The remote control is to control the opening and closing status of the circuit breaker 32 by SMS, and authorize the door detection switch 33 to open and close the door of the meter box by SMS;

[0047] The alarm management collects data by acquiring the box door detection switch 33, the strong magnetic detection module 34, the strong electric detection module 35, and the vibration detection module 36, identifies the abnormal status of the electrical box door and the electric energy meter, and sends a status alarm to the administrator through the data acquisition and transmission module.

[0048] As a preferred embodiment, the camera 21 is turned on only when the door of the meter box is open, when it is subject to abnormal interference, or when the meter box body is violently shaken. After being turned on, the camera 21 transmits the real-time image to the administrator through the data transmission module 22, and simultaneously stores and backs up the image through the data storage module 23 for subsequent viewing and inspection.

[0049] What is described above is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical scheme and inventive concept of the present invention within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
