[0029] To facilitate understanding of the present application, the present application will be described more fully below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The accompanying drawings provide embodiments of the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to make the disclosure of the present application more thorough and comprehensive.

[0030] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application pertains. The terms used herein in the specification of this application are for the purpose of describing specific embodiments only and are not intended to limit this application.

[0031] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides an ultraviolet lamp control panel for controlling an ultraviolet lamp, wherein the control panel is provided with a display area a, a sensing area b and a control area c, and the control panel includes a microcontroller 10 and an alarm 20 electrically connected to the microcontroller 10, a display module 30, a memory 40, a timing module 50 and a reservation timing module 60.

[0032] Among them, the sensing area b is provided with a light intensity sensor 70, which is used to detect the real-time ultraviolet intensity of the ultraviolet lamp and send it to the microcontroller 10; when the ultraviolet intensity is lower than the predetermined light intensity, the microcontroller 10 sends an alarm signal to the alarm 20, and effectively prevents the risk of disinfection failure caused by light source attenuation by real-time monitoring of the ultraviolet intensity and triggering an alarm when it is lower than the safety threshold.

[0033] In this embodiment, the light intensity sensor 70 can use a high-precision UV-A / UV-C band photodiode (such as Hamamatsu S11059) to collect ultraviolet intensity data in real time. 2 C interface is transmitted to the microcontroller 10.

[0034] The alarm 20 includes a buzzer and a three-color LED, which enhances the warning effect through the coordinated sound and light alarm, reminds the replacement of the lamp tube, and reduces the disinfection window period caused by light source attenuation and lamp tube replacement.

[0035] The timing module 50 is used to collect the single usage time and cumulative usage time of the ultraviolet lamp. The cumulative usage time is the sum of the single usage time of the ultraviolet lamp since the first use. When the cumulative usage time reaches a preset time threshold, the microcontroller sends an alarm signal to the alarm.

[0036] In an embodiment of the present application, the timing module 50 includes a counter 51 and a timer 52. Both the timer 52 and the counter 51 are connected to the switch of the ultraviolet lamp. When the switch is turned on, the timer 52 counts the duration of a single use, that is, the duration of a single turn-on of the ultraviolet lamp. When the switch is turned off, the timer 52 transfers the duration of a single use of the previous turn-on period to the counter. The counter 51 accumulates the duration of a single use and transmits it to the memory 40.

[0037] The counter 51 and the timer 52 work together to record the single usage duration and the cumulative duration respectively, and form a complete usage data chain in combination with the memory 40 to provide data support for the equipment maintenance cycle prediction.

[0038] The memory 40 is used to store the preset duration threshold, predetermined light intensity and actual usage data of the ultraviolet lamp, wherein the actual usage data includes single usage duration, cumulative usage duration and ultraviolet intensity; the memory uses EEPROM (such as AT25DF081) to achieve non-volatile storage.

[0039] The display module 30 is set in the display area a, and is used to display actual usage data in real time; the display module can use a 1.8-inch TFT LCD screen to display real-time intensity, single usage time and cumulative usage time in pages or columns.

[0040] The reservation timing module 60 determines a preset usage time according to the received timing signal, and the microcontroller 10 compares the preset usage time with the single usage time and turns off the ultraviolet lamp when the single usage time reaches the preset usage time.

[0041] Preferably, in this embodiment, the reservation timing module 60 includes a clock unit 61, a register 62 and a pre-divider 63, the clock unit 61 is used to provide a reference clock signal, the register 62 is used to store the recorded timing signal, and the pre-divider 63 receives the reference clock signal and the timing signal and generates a timing signal suitable for timing.

[0042] For example, in an optional embodiment, the clock unit 61 may use an integrated clock chip (such as DS3231) to cooperate with the pre-divider 63 to generate 1 second / 10 second adjustable timing pulses, and implement the reservation timing function by storing the timing parameters set by the user through the register 62.

[0043] Preferably, the timing module 50 is connected to the reservation timing module 60 and uses the same reference clock signal. The timing module 50 and the reservation timing module 60 share the same clock source, eliminating the time drift error between different timing units and ensuring the accurate matching of the preset duration and the actual running duration.

[0044] Preferably, the control panel also includes a wireless communication module 70, which is connected to the microcontroller 10 and is used to send the usage signal of the ultraviolet lamp to a predetermined device. In an embodiment of the present application, the wireless communication module 70 integrates an ESP8266 Wi-Fi module, communicates with the cloud server through the MQTT protocol, and supports device status push (JSON format data packet, including timestamp, intensity value, cumulative duration and other fields).

[0045] The control area c is also provided with a reservation function button 11 and a timing button 12. When the reservation function button 11 is pressed, the microcontroller 10 controls the reservation timing module to wait for receiving the timing signal; the timing button 12 is used to record the timing signal to the reservation timing module, that is, pressing the reservation function button 11 enters the timing mode, and the timing button 12 records the timing parameters. The reservation setting and the instant start operation are separated by physical buttons, which reduces the complexity of human-computer interaction. The user can intuitively complete the timing task configuration or manual timing control.

[0046] The timing module 50 is configured to automatically reset the accumulated usage time when the UV lamp tube is replaced. This automatically clears the accumulated time data upon lamp replacement, avoiding interference with historical data due to hardware replacement and ensuring the accuracy of the new lamp's usage time. Alternatively, the control area c is further provided with a reset button 13, which is connected to the microcontroller 10. When the reset button 13 is pressed, the microcontroller 10 controls the timing module 50 to reset the accumulated usage time. A manual reset function is also provided, allowing operators to quickly reset the accumulated time in maintenance or abnormal situations, thereby enhancing the flexibility and fault tolerance of the device.

[0047] In addition, the switch 14 of the ultraviolet lamp is set in the control area C. Integrating the ultraviolet lamp switch 14 in the control area C shortens the operation path, realizes the closed-loop control of "one-button switch + real-time status feedback", and improves operational safety and efficiency.

[0048] Based on the above control panel, this application also provides a wireless linkage control system for ultraviolet lamps, such as Figure 5 As shown, it includes an ultraviolet lamp 100, an ultraviolet lamp control panel 200, a smart mobile terminal 300 and a cloud server 400.

[0049] The smart mobile terminal 300 is loaded with a predetermined program. The smart mobile terminal 300 is preferably a mobile phone or a tablet computer. The predetermined program can be an app or a small program in a specific program, such as a WeChat small program or an Alipay small program. The predetermined program can call the data transmission module of the smart mobile terminal 300 to connect with the wireless communication module 70 and the cloud server 400. The wireless communication module 70 sends the actual usage data of the ultraviolet lamp 100 to the smart mobile terminal 300 and the cloud server 400. The predetermined program can call the display module of the smart mobile terminal 300 to display the actual usage data.

[0050] The wireless linkage control system of the ultraviolet lamp realizes the transparency of equipment status and intelligent operation and maintenance management by constructing an "end-pipe-cloud" collaborative architecture. Specifically, the control panel transmits key parameters such as ultraviolet intensity and cumulative duration to the smart mobile terminal 300 in real time through the wireless communication module 70, so that the operator can grasp the operating status of the equipment at any time. Secondly, the cloud server 400 establishes a digital twin model of the equipment, which supports administrators to view historical curves and set threshold alarms across regions, breaking through geographical restrictions to achieve centralized management and control of multi-site equipment; the system is based on massive usage data stored in the cloud (such as lamp tube attenuation curves and environmental interference records), and predicts the remaining life through machine learning algorithms to shorten maintenance response time. In summary, the system uses wireless transformation and cloud empowerment to enable equipment management to shift from passive maintenance to predictive maintenance, while meeting the compliance requirements of GMP workshops, biological laboratories and other scenarios for digital traceability of disinfection processes.

[0051] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modification, lamp replacement, and lamp improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
