Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a tour guide equipment application technology, and in particular to a tourist guide device based on augmented reality. Background Art

[0002] As the global tourism industry is booming, people's pursuit of travel experience is becoming increasingly diversified and personalized. Tourism is no longer just a simple sightseeing tour, but focuses more on in-depth experience and interactive participation. In this process, the importance of tourist guides has become increasingly prominent.

[0003] Traditional tourist guides mainly rely on guides’ explanations, paper maps and signboards. However, these methods have many limitations. Guides’ explanations may be limited by time, number of people and language, and cannot meet the needs of every tourist. Paper maps and signboards often have limited information and are not intuitive and vivid enough, making it difficult for tourists to quickly and accurately understand the characteristics and historical and cultural background of the attractions.

[0004] With the rapid development of science and technology, augmented reality technology has gradually entered people's field of vision and has shown great potential in the field of tourism. Augmented reality technology can superimpose virtual information on real scenes, providing tourists with a richer and more three-dimensional tourist guide experience. Through augmented reality applications on mobile devices such as mobile phones and tablets, tourists can see virtual information about the historical stories, cultural connotations, architectural features, etc. of the scenic spots while visiting them, as if traveling through time and space and having a dialogue with history.

[0005] However, the existing augmented reality-based tourist guide devices still face some challenges in practical applications. First, in terms of height adjustment, the existing devices are often difficult to flexibly adjust according to the height and viewing habits of different tourists. This makes some tourists need to bend over, look up or tiptoe to see the content on the screen clearly during use, affecting the viewing experience and comfort. Secondly, in terms of equipment cleaning, due to the complex and changeable environment of tourist attractions, the equipment is easily affected by factors such as dust and rain. Without an effective cleaning mechanism, stains and dust on the display will affect the quality of the augmented reality picture and reduce the guiding effect. In addition, energy supply is also a key issue. Most of the existing devices rely on batteries for power supply and have limited battery life. During a long tour, there may be a lack of power, which affects the use of tourists. Moreover, the mobility and adaptability of existing equipment need to be improved. In some scenic spots with complex terrain, such as mountains and forests, the movement of the equipment may be restricted, making it difficult to meet the guiding needs of tourists in different locations.

[0006] In order to solve these problems, a tourist guide device based on augmented reality came into being. Through innovative design, the device has been comprehensively optimized in terms of height adjustment, cleaning mechanism, energy supply and mobility. In terms of height adjustment, an advanced lifting mechanism is adopted, which can easily adjust the height of the device according to the needs of tourists, ensuring that every tourist can watch the augmented reality screen at a comfortable angle. In terms of cleaning mechanism, a special cleaning mechanism is designed, which can automatically clean the display screen after the device is stored, keep the screen clean, and improve the guiding effect. In terms of energy supply, it is equipped with solar panels and adjustment mechanisms, which can make full use of solar energy to power the equipment and improve the endurance. In terms of mobility, a mobile cart is installed at the bottom of the device, which is convenient for moving in different scenic environments and providing tourists with guided tour services anytime and anywhere. In short, this new tourist guide device will bring tourists a better and more convenient travel experience and promote the intelligent development of the tourism industry. Summary of the invention

[0036] A cleaning mechanism is installed inside the machine body 1 and is used to clean the device after it is stored. The cleaning mechanism includes two support frames 11 fixedly connected to the inside of the machine body 1, two reciprocating screw rods 12 rotatably connected to the two support frames 11, and a moving ring 13 threadedly sleeved on the two reciprocating screw rods 12. The cleaning mechanism also includes two second guide rods 15 fixedly connected to the inside of the machine body 1, and the moving ring 13 is respectively provided with a second threaded hole and a second guide hole. The two reciprocating screw rods 12 are respectively threadedly sleeved inside the second threaded holes, and the two second guide rods 15 are respectively movably sleeved inside the second guide holes. A plurality of cleaning plates 14 are fixedly connected to the inner array of the moving ring 13, and one side of the plurality of cleaning plates 14 is respectively in contact with the corresponding display screen 10;

[0037] A driving mechanism is installed at the bottom of the machine body 1 and is used to output power to the lifting mechanism and the cleaning mechanism. A transmission mechanism is provided between the driving mechanism and the lifting mechanism and the cleaning mechanism. The driving mechanism includes a driving motor 3 fixedly connected to one side of the machine body 1, and an output shaft of the driving motor 3 is fixedly connected to a first pulley 4;

[0038] An adjusting mechanism is installed on the top of the support rod 7. The adjusting mechanism includes a top plate 19 fixedly connected to the top of the support rod 7. A solar panel 23 is hinged on the top plate 19. One side of the solar panel 23 is rotatably connected to a traction plate 22. The top of the top plate 19 is rotatably connected to a second threaded rod 20. A moving block 21 is threadedly sleeved on the second threaded rod 20. One side of the moving block 21 is rotatably connected to the traction plate 22. One end of the second threaded rod 20 is fixedly connected to an operating panel. One side of the top plate 19 abuts against the top of the machine body 1.

[0039] In this embodiment, the transmission mechanism includes a second pulley 17 fixedly connected to the two reciprocating screws 12 respectively, the bottom end of the first threaded rod 5 is fixedly connected to the third pulley 16, and the outside of the first pulley 4 is respectively connected to the two second pulleys 17 and the third pulley 16 by the same belt 18.

[0040] In this embodiment, the bottom of the moving cart 2 is rotatably connected to a moving wheel, the interior of the body 1 is fixedly connected to a limit spring 24 , and the first threaded rod 5 is movably sleeved inside the limit spring 24 .

[0041] Working principle: When the augmented reality-based tourist guide device is used, first, the first pulley 4 is driven to rotate by the positive start of the driving motor 3. The rotation of the first pulley 4 drives the second pulley 17 and the third pulley 16 to rotate through the belt 18. The rotation of the third pulley 16 causes the first threaded rod 5 to rotate, thereby driving the movable plate 6 to move upward along the first guide rod 8. The upward movement of the movable plate 6 simultaneously drives the support rod 7, the support plate 9 and the display screen 10 to move upward to adjust the height, so as to adapt to the height and viewing needs of different tourists, and provide tourists with the best augmented reality tourist guide viewing angle.

[0042] During the tourist guide process, the display screen 10 displays rich tourist attraction information and virtual scenes presented by augmented reality technology, making tourists feel as if they are personally there and better understand the history, culture and characteristics of the attractions. When the display screen 10 needs to be stored, the drive motor 3 is reversely started to drive the first pulley 4 to rotate, and the reverse rotation of the first pulley 4 causes the first threaded rod 5 to rotate in the reverse direction, thereby driving the movable plate 6 to move downward and store the display screen 10 in the machine body 1. When the movable plate 6 moves to the bottom thread end of the first threaded rod 5, since a light rod is provided at the bottom thread end of the first threaded rod 5, and the diameter of the light rod is smaller than the diameter of the first threaded hole of the movable plate 6, and the movable plate 6 is moved and limited by the limit spring 24, at this time, the movable plate 6 is threadedly separated from the first threaded rod 5, and the first threaded rod 5 remains idle.

[0043] During the storage process, the rotation of the second pulley 17 drives the reciprocating screw 12 to rotate, and the rotation of the reciprocating screw 12 drives the moving ring 13 to reciprocate up and down along the second guide rod 15. The up and down reciprocating movement of the moving ring 13 enables the cleaning plate 14 to clean the surface of the display screen 10, ensuring that the display screen 10 can clearly display the tourist guide information and augmented reality images when used next time, bringing tourists a high-quality tourist guide experience.

[0044] In addition, the angle of the solar panel 23 can be adjusted by the adjustment mechanism. The solar panel 23 fully absorbs solar energy to provide power support for the entire device, ensuring the continuous and stable operation of the augmented reality tourism guide device during the tourism process. The mobile cart 2 at the bottom facilitates the movement of the device in different tourist attractions, providing tourists with convenient augmented reality tourism guide services at different locations.

[0045] The above description is only by way of illustration of certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. It is undoubted that those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
