TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of temperature monitoring, and particularly relates to an intelligent cold-chain logistics temperature monitoring system for the logistics field. BACKGROUND

[0002] Cold-chain logistics refers to maintaining a specific low-temperature environment during transportation, storage, distribution and other processes to ensure the quality and safety of perishable goods. With the rapid development of globalization trade and e-commerce, the importance of cold-chain logistics in modern supply chains is increasingly prominent. Especially after the epidemic, the transportation demand of biological products such as vaccines and medicines has surged, and higher requirements for the reliability and accuracy of cold chains have been put forward. However, there are many challenges in the actual operation of cold-chain logistics, especially in temperature control, transportation timeliness and energy efficiency. First, temperature stability is one of the most critical factors in cold-chain logistics. Temperature deviation can lead to a decrease in the quality of goods, and even deterioration. For example, when transporting vaccines, even a few degrees of temperature fluctuation can affect the effectiveness of the vaccine, causing huge economic losses and public health risks. At present, many cold-chain logistics systems mainly rely on traditional temperature control equipment and manual monitoring, but these systems often have problems such as slow response speed, low accuracy and information lag. The traditional temperature monitoring method only relies on periodic manual inspection and cannot timely detect temperature fluctuations or abnormal changes, which may miss the best intervention opportunity. Second, the transportation path and timeliness are also a big challenge to the management of cold-chain logistics. Cold-chain transportation not only requires proper temperature control, but also needs to ensure the efficiency and punctuality of the transportation process. The arrival time of goods and the optimization of transportation path directly affect the overall efficiency of the cold chain, especially for high-value goods that need to be transported within a strict time. Factors such as traffic and weather during transportation may affect the scheduled arrival time, but existing systems often lack real-time monitoring and prediction of transportation speed, path, traffic conditions, etc., resulting in unsynchronized scheduling and temperature control management, increasing the uncertainty and risk of cold-chain transportation. In addition, the problem of energy efficiency is also an important difficulty in cold-chain logistics. In order to maintain a low-temperature environment, cold-chain logistics usually requires a large number of refrigeration equipment, which will bring huge energy consumption and cost. Traditional refrigeration methods often do not optimize energy efficiency, and many systems will continue to run without distinction, resulting in energy waste. In the context of increasingly stringent environmental protection requirements and rising energy costs, how to achieve accurate refrigeration control and reduce energy consumption has become a problem that needs to be solved in the cold-chain logistics industry. Therefore, an intelligent cold-chain logistics temperature monitoring system for the logistics field is proposed. SUMMARY

[0056] The data monitoring module is arranged in the truck and is used for monitoring the temperature of the truck at regular intervals.

[0057] The positioning and tracking module is arranged in the truck body and is used for positioning and tracking the position of the truck.

[0058] The refrigeration power control module is arranged outside the truck and is used for refrigerating the truck body.

[0059] In this embodiment, the data monitoring module includes a monitoring unit, a feedback unit, an anomaly analysis unit,

[0060] The monitoring unit is arranged in the truck and is used for monitoring the temperature of the truck at regular intervals, and then transmitting the truck temperatures at different time points monitored at regular intervals to the anomaly analysis unit according to a preset number of time points. The monitoring unit is a digital temperature sensor.

[0061] The anomaly analysis unit is connected with the monitoring unit and the refrigeration power control module, and is used for, after receiving the temperature of the truck, calculating a temperature mean value according to the truck temperatures at different time points monitored at regular intervals, calculating a temperature standard deviation based on the truck temperatures at different time points monitored at regular intervals, calculating a data value based on the temperature standard deviation and the temperature mean value, and comparing whether the data value exceeds a preset threshold value. And for, after comparing that the data value exceeds the preset threshold value, generating an alarm prompt information, transmitting it to the feedback unit, the anomaly analysis unit can adopt a microcontroller based on ARM architecture.

[0062] The feedback unit is connected with the anomaly analysis unit and is arranged in the cab of the truck, and is used for, after receiving the alarm prompt information, issuing a feedback sound, and the feedback unit is a loudspeaker. When receiving the alarm prompt information, the loudspeaker issues a feedback sound to remind the truck driver.

[0063] In this embodiment, the monitoring unit regularly collects temperature data inside the truck and transmits it to the anomaly analysis unit. Through segmented processing of temperature data, the accuracy of temperature change monitoring is effectively improved. In addition, the monitoring unit is also responsible for real-time tracking of the transportation speed of the truck, and transmits this information to the positioning tracking module to ensure that temperature monitoring is synchronized with transportation progress. The anomaly analysis unit can accurately analyze the internal temperature fluctuations of the truck by calculating the temperature mean value and standard deviation, and timely identify abnormalities. The data value calculated by the temperature standard deviation and mean value is compared with the preset threshold value. When the temperature fluctuation exceeds the threshold value, the system can immediately detect and identify abnormal conditions. After receiving the alarm prompt information from the anomaly analysis unit, the feedback unit can quickly issue a feedback sound to remind the driver or operator to pay attention to temperature changes and take appropriate handling measures. This alarm mechanism ensures the timely discovery and response to abnormal conditions, thereby reducing the impact of temperature control problems on the safety of goods.

[0064] In this embodiment, the formula for calculating the temperature mean value by the anomaly analysis unit according to the temperatures at different time points monitored at regular intervals is:

[0065]

[0066] Wherein, μ is the temperature mean value, unit is ℃, N is the preset number of time points, x e is the truck temperature at the e-th time point, unit is ℃.

The cloud server is also configured to calculate the arrival time based on the minimum distance and the transport speed after receiving the transport speed, and transmit the same to the display module.

[0078] The display module is connected with the cloud server, and is configured to display the position information of the transfer station corresponding to the minimum distance and the arrival time after receiving the same. The display module adopts an OLED display screen.

[0079] In this embodiment, the GPS positioning device monitors the latitude and longitude coordinates of the truck in real time and transmits this information to the cloud server. This function ensures accurate tracking of the truck's location, allowing managers to know the dynamic position of the truck at any time. The cloud server not only receives the truck location data, but also provides managers with the location information of the cold chain transfer stations. Based on the distance calculation between the current position of the truck and the transfer station, the system determines the nearest transfer station by quicksort method, optimizing the selection of transfer stations and ensuring that the goods can reach the appropriate transfer station as soon as possible. After receiving the transport speed of the truck, the cloud server combines the shortest distance and speed data to calculate the expected time of arrival of the truck at the target transfer station in real time. This information is transmitted to the refrigeration power control module for corresponding temperature adjustment, and at the same time, it is transmitted to the display module for the manager to grasp the transportation progress. The display module receives the transfer station information corresponding to the shortest distance and the arrival time transmitted by the cloud server, and displays it intuitively to the manager, facilitating real-time monitoring of the truck's transportation and expected arrival time, ensuring the timeliness and coordination of the transportation process.
