Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of lidar for wind measurement, and particularly to a portable ground-based lidar for wind measurement. Background Art

[0002] As a core device for atmospheric wind field monitoring, ground-based lidar for wind measurement realizes three-dimensional wind field inversion through the backscattering effect of laser pulses and atmospheric particles, and has now been widely used in meteorological monitoring, environmental assessment, and wind power generation fields. The high-power laser and precision electronic components of this device generate significant thermal loads during continuous operation, which poses strict requirements for system thermal management. More critically, the electromagnetic radiation generated by its internal high-frequency circuits is likely to cause co-frequency interference to sensitive frequency bands such as satellite communication and aviation navigation, and may cause major safety hazards in military facilities, airport air traffic control, and areas with dense electronics. Therefore, it must meet the military electromagnetic compatibility standard GJB151B-2013.

[0003] Currently, mainstream lidar products for wind measurement generally adopt an integrated cavity design, integrating the signal processing module and the laser transmitting telescope in the same enclosed space. Although this structure meets the basic IP67 protection requirements, it has two technical defects: First, the laser emission window becomes the main channel for electromagnetic leakage, and the electromagnetic exceeds the standard limit of item RS105 of GJB151B; Second, the centralized heat dissipation system results in an easy cross of the heat flow path. When encountering extreme environments, such as a high-temperature weather with a ground ambient temperature of 60°C, the temperature rise of key components is too large, affecting the signal inversion accuracy.

[0004] Therefore, it is very necessary to develop a portable ground-based lidar for wind measurement with good heat dissipation, low electromagnetic radiation, and the ability to adapt to relatively harsh environments. Summary of the Invention

[0005] Aiming at the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention proposes a portable ground-based lidar for wind measurement, aiming to solve the heat dissipation problem and the problem of electromagnetic signal radiation interference of traditional lidar for wind measurement.

[0006] To achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a portable ground-based lidar, which includes a frame. On the front and rear sides of the frame, there are respectively a first installation chamber and a second installation chamber for installing electronic components. At the upper end of the frame, there is an upper cover with a radar scanning port. Maintenance covers are provided on both the first installation chamber and the second installation chamber. In the middle of the frame, there is a heat dissipation air duct. Heat dissipation slots are provided on both sides of the heat dissipation air duct. At the lower end of the heat dissipation air duct, there is a heat dissipation fan. A radar lens module is provided in the heat dissipation air duct. Ventilation gaps are provided on the front and rear sides at the upper end of the frame. The ventilation gaps cooperate with the upper cover to form a ventilation slot. When conducting detection work, the heat dissipation fan ventilates the heat dissipation air duct, and the hot air is blown out from the ventilation slot.

[0007] Based on the above, when the electronic components are operating, they will generate relatively strong radiation signals, which will interfere with the surrounding electronic devices. The present invention is provided with a first installation chamber and a second installation chamber for installing electronic components, which isolates the electromagnetic radiation signal and prevents the electromagnetic radiation signal from being emitted through the radar scanning port, greatly reducing the impact of the electromagnetic radiation signal on the surrounding environment. When a failure occurs, only by opening the maintenance cover can the parts in the first installation chamber or the second installation chamber be inspected and repaired. In addition, the radar lens module is provided on the heat dissipation air duct. When conducting detection work, the heat dissipation fan ventilates the heat dissipation air duct, and the hot air is blown out from the ventilation slot. Through the heat dissipation air duct, the electronic components in the first installation chamber and the second installation chamber and the radar lens module in the heat dissipation air duct can be cooled simultaneously, greatly improving the heat dissipation effect.

[0008] Further, a filter window sheet is provided on the radar scanning port. A wiper is provided on one side of the filter window sheet. One end of the wiper is provided with a wiper motor. The wiper motor is arranged inside the upper cover. A drainage groove is provided around the periphery of the filter window sheet. The drainage groove is communicated with a drainage pipe. The drainage pipe passes through the heat dissipation air duct and leads directly to the lower end of the frame.

[0009] Based on the above, in rainy weather or when the filter window sheet needs to be cleaned, the wiper can sweep away the water quality or foreign objects on the filter window sheet, and the liquid swept will flow into the drainage pipe through the drainage groove and be discharged. This enables the present invention to conduct detection work even in rainy weather.

[0010] Furthermore, the radar lens module includes a telescope module and a wedge prism module disposed above the telescope module. The wedge prism module includes a wedge prism and a wedge prism driving device. The wedge prism driving device includes a synchronous pulley coaxially engaged with the wedge prism. The synchronous pulley is connected to the output shaft of a stepper motor through a synchronous belt. Both the telescope module and the wedge prism module are encapsulated with metal housings.

[0011] Based on the above, the stepper motor drives the synchronous pulley to rotate through the synchronous belt, and the wedge prism rotates under the drive of the synchronous pulley. Transmission is carried out through the synchronous belt and the synchronous pulley, making the rotation angle of the wedge prism more accurate. Both the telescope module and the wedge prism module are independently encapsulated with metal housings, which can protect the radar lens module and, at the same time, largely isolate external interference.

[0012] Furthermore, the frame includes a first frame plate and a second frame plate. Both the first frame plate and the second frame plate are provided with threaded mounting holes and wire passing holes. The first frame plate and the second frame plate are fixedly engaged through screws with the threaded mounting holes. The wire passing holes are used for the connection of circuits between the first installation chamber and the second installation chamber.

[0013] Based on the above, the frame is composed of the first frame plate and the second frame plate, making disassembly, assembly, and maintenance more convenient. The first installation chamber and the second installation chamber are electrically connected through the wire passing holes, enabling the electronic components in the first installation chamber and the second installation chamber to achieve electrical connection.

[0014] Furthermore, a data acquisition card, a control board, and an industrial control computer are arranged in the first installation chamber. A serial port server is arranged on the data acquisition card, and a power supply board is arranged at the lower end of the control board. A polarization-maintaining fiber acousto-optic modulator, a communication module, a seed source, an optical module, and a balanced detector are arranged in the second installation chamber.

[0015] Furthermore, a protective cover is arranged below the cooling fan, and the ventilation holes of the protective cover are arranged on the side surface of the protective cover.

[0016] Based on the above, the ventilation holes are arranged on the side surface of the protective cover, allowing air to enter the heat dissipation duct from all around the protective cover and preventing the cooling fan from directly sucking in dust on the ground.

[0017] Furthermore, a conductive sealing ring is arranged at the mating part between the maintenance cover and the frame, and support angle seats are arranged below the maintenance cover.

[0018] Based on the above, arranging a conductive sealing ring at the mating part between the maintenance cover and the frame enhances the overall sealing performance of the present invention.

[0019] Further, one side of the first frame plate is provided with an antenna, a power interface and a network cable interface.

[0020] Based on the above, the antenna is used for receiving and transmitting signals, and the power interface and the network cable interface are used for connecting to external devices.

[0021] Further, the output rotating shaft of the wiper motor is fixedly fitted with the wiper, a travel groove is provided on the wiper motor, and a travel limit post matched with the travel groove is provided on the wiper.

[0022] Based on the above, the wiper motor drives the wiper to swing on the filter window sheet, so as to achieve a cleaning effect. The travel groove cooperating with the travel limit post can limit the swing amplitude of the wiper.

[0023] Further, a level is also provided on the upper cover.

[0024] Based on the above, when detecting the atmospheric wind field, the placement state of the present invention can be adjusted through the level, so as to improve the detection accuracy.

[0025] In order to more clearly elaborate the above features of the present invention and the purposes to be achieved, the following further describes the present invention in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Detailed implementation manners

[0028] As Figures 1 to 13 shown, a lightweight ground-based lidar includes a frame 1. On the front and rear sides of the frame 1, there are respectively arranged a first installation chamber 2 and a second installation chamber 3 for installing electronic components. On the upper end of the frame 1, there is an upper cover 5 with a radar scanning port 4. Maintenance covers 6 are arranged on both the first installation chamber 2 and the second installation chamber 3. Both the frame 1 and the maintenance cover 6 are made of all-metal, which can effectively isolate electromagnetic radiation. In the middle of the frame 1, there is a through heat dissipation air duct 7. Heat dissipation slots 8 are arranged on both sides of the heat dissipation air duct 7. A heat dissipation fan 9 is arranged at the lower end of the heat dissipation air duct 7. A radar lens module 10 is arranged in the heat dissipation air duct 7. Ventilation notches 11 are arranged on the front and rear sides of the upper end of the frame 1. A handle is arranged below the ventilation notches 11. The ventilation notches 11 and the lower surface of the upper cover 5 cooperate to form a ventilation slot.

[0029] When the electronic component is operating, it will generate relatively strong radiation signals, which will interfere with the surrounding electronic devices. The present invention is provided with a first installation chamber 2 and a second installation chamber 3 for installing the electronic component, isolating the electromagnetic radiation signal and preventing the electromagnetic radiation signal from being emitted through the radar scanning port 4, greatly reducing the impact of the electromagnetic radiation signal on the surrounding environment. When a failure occurs, the parts in the first installation chamber 2 or the second installation chamber 3 can be detected and repaired as long as the maintenance cover 6 is opened.

[0030] In addition, the radar lens module 10 is arranged on the heat dissipation air duct 7. When the detection work is carried out, the heat dissipation fan 9 ventilates the heat dissipation air duct 7, and the hot air blows out from the ventilation slot. Through the heat dissipation air duct 7, the electronic components in the first installation chamber 2 and the second installation chamber 3 and the radar lens module 10 of the heat dissipation air duct 7 can be cooled simultaneously. It is known from the experimental data that even when the ambient temperature reaches 60 °C, the CPU temperature rise of the highest heat source industrial control main board of the present invention is 17 degrees Celsius, that is, 77 °C, while the CPU of a general industrial-grade industrial control computer can operate normally at about 85 degrees Celsius, greatly improving the heat dissipation effect and at the same time being able to adapt to a more severe detection environment. As Figure 13 shown, it is a schematic diagram of the air flow field when the heat dissipation fan 9 is working. The present invention seals the radar lens module 10 and the electrical components separately, not only realizing heat source separation (temperature difference control ≤ 5 °C) and directional heat dissipation (heat flow efficiency increased by 40%), but also attenuating the electromagnetic leakage to less than 28 dBμV / m through the waveguide cutoff filtering technology. While ensuring the IP67 protection level, the device passes all electromagnetic compatibility test items of GJB151B-2013.

A wiper 14 is arranged on one side of the filter window piece 13, and a wiper motor 15 is arranged at one end of the wiper 14. The wiper motor 15 is arranged inside the upper cover 5. A drain groove 16 is arranged around the periphery of the filter window piece 13, and the drain groove 16 is communicated with a drain pipe 17. The drain pipe 17 passes through the heat dissipation air duct 7 and leads directly to the lower end of the frame 1. In rainy weather or when the filter window piece 13 needs to be cleaned, the wiper 14 can sweep away the water quality or foreign objects on the filter window piece 13, and the liquid swept away will flow into the drain pipe 17 through the drain groove 16 and be discharged. Enabling the present invention to carry out detection work even in rainy weather.

The wedge prism module 19 includes a wedge prism 20 and a wedge prism driving device. The wedge prism driving device includes a synchronous pulley 21 coaxially engaged with the wedge prism 20. A bearing is coaxially engaged with the lower end of the synchronous pulley 21. The synchronous pulley 21 is connected to the output shaft of a stepper motor 23 through a timing belt 22. A placement groove for placing the stepper motor 23 is provided on the frame 1. The telescope module 18 and the wedge prism module 19 are both encapsulated with a metal housing 24. During detection work, the stepper motor 23 drives the synchronous pulley 21 to rotate through the timing belt 22, and the wedge prism 20 rotates under the drive of the synchronous pulley 21. The synchronous belt 22 is used to drive the synchronous pulley 21 for transmission, making the rotation angle of the wedge prism 20 more accurate, thereby improving the detection effect. The telescope module 18 and the wedge prism module 19 are both encapsulated with a metal housing 24 independently. When the cooling fan 9 ventilates the cooling air duct 7, moisture and dust in the air are prevented from contaminating the telescope module 18 and the wedge prism module 19, thereby playing a protective role.

[0033] Preferably, the frame 1 includes a first frame plate 25 and a second frame plate 26. Threaded mounting holes 27 and wire passing holes 28 are provided on both the first frame plate 25 and the second frame plate 26. The first frame plate 25 and the second frame plate 26 are fixedly engaged by screws with the threaded mounting holes 27. The wire passing holes 28 are used for line connection between the first installation chamber 2 and the second installation chamber 3. During mating installation, sealing rings are provided at the outer edges of the threaded mounting holes 27 and the wire passing holes 28, thereby improving the overall sealing performance of the device and preventing water flow from entering the first installation chamber 2 or the second installation chamber 3. The frame 1 is composed of the first frame plate 25 and the second frame plate 26, making disassembly, assembly, and maintenance more convenient.

The ventilation holes 37 are provided on the side surface of the protective cover 36, so that air enters the cooling air duct 7 from all around the protective cover 36, preventing the cooling fan 9 from directly sucking dust on the ground.

[0036] Preferably, a conductive sealing ring 38 is provided at the mating portion between the maintenance cover 6 and the frame 1, and a support angle seat 39 is provided below the maintenance cover 6. When performing atmospheric wind field detection, sudden weather changes need to be faced, such as rainy days. The conductive sealing ring 38 provided at the mating portion between the maintenance cover 6 and the frame 1 can enhance the overall sealing performance of the present invention and prevent liquid from entering the machine body.
