Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] 001. The present invention relates to the technical field of signboards, and in particular to signboards with intelligent windproof functions suitable for tourist scenic areas. Background Art
[0002] 002. In tourist scenic spots, signboards play a vital role in providing guidance and warnings. However, traditional signboards typically have a fixed structure and are made of ordinary materials, which can only meet basic information display needs. When encountering strong winds, due to the inability to adapt to wind conditions, the strong winds act on the fixed signboards, making them extremely easy to be blown down. This not only causes damage to the signboards themselves, increasing maintenance costs and manpower, but also may pose a safety threat to passing tourists or surrounding facilities during the process of falling. Moreover, with the rapid development of Internet of Things technology, existing scenic area signboards have failed to fully utilize this technological advantage and effectively integrate it with meteorological information, lacking intelligent means to deal with severe weather. Summary of the Invention
[0003] 003. The present invention aims to overcome the deficiencies of existing tourist scenic area signs in terms of wind resistance and intelligence, and to provide an intelligent windproof sign that can sense changes in wind force and direction in real time, issue early warnings with the help of Internet of Things technology, and automatically adjust its own shape to reduce wind resistance, effectively preventing it from being blown down by strong winds.
[0004] 004. Signage Body: Constructed from a lightweight, high-strength alloy, this material boasts remarkable properties of lightness and high strength. This reduces the signage's overall weight, facilitating installation and subsequent adjustments, while ensuring structural stability even in high winds. It also possesses excellent tensile strength, effectively withstanding erosion and wind impact in complex outdoor environments.
[0005] 005. Pillar: The pillar, serving as the supporting component of the sign, features an ingenious internal rotatable mechanical structure. This structure is composed of a motor, a gear train, and a rotating shaft. The motor, acting as the power source, precisely rotates the shaft through the gear train's speed change and transmission. When the control system issues a command, the motor starts, transmitting power through the gear train to the shaft, which in turn drives the connected sign panel to achieve angular adjustments. This allows for flexible adjustment of the sign's angle relative to the wind, minimizing the area exposed to windward forces.
[0006] 006. Signage: The signage is innovatively designed to rotate and retract. When wind speeds are low, it maintains its normal display. When wind speeds increase and reach a certain warning threshold, the electric gear receives a signal from the control system and drives the signage to rotate, rapidly changing its position to effectively reduce its frontal area and lower wind resistance.
[0007] 007. Wind Speed and Direction Sensor: The wind speed sensor uses a three-cup design. Under the influence of wind, the cups rotate around their axis at a speed proportional to the wind speed. Wind speed is determined by measuring the speed. The wind direction sensor uses a rotor-type design. The vane assembly rotates with the wind direction, driving the main shaft and encoder together. The angle conversion circuit outputs a signal corresponding to the wind direction.
[0008] 008. Control System: A built-in preset wind threshold is set based on the typical wind conditions in tourist attractions and the sign's structural load-bearing capacity. When the wind speed and direction sensor's real-time wind readings exceed this threshold, the control system immediately initiates an automatic adjustment process, driving the mechanical structure to adjust the sign's angle and shape, achieving intelligent wind protection.

[0013] 013. Material preparation: According to the design requirements, purchase lightweight high-strength alloy materials of appropriate specifications to make the pillars (8), cantilever panels (3) and main panels (7), ensuring that the mechanical properties, corrosion resistance and other indicators of the materials meet the standards for outdoor use; at the same time, prepare the disc motor (2), intelligent motor (6), gear (5), wind speed and direction sensor (1), control system (4) and other components. Each component must have the corresponding quality certification and reliability guarantee.
[0014] 014. Structural assembly: First, use cutting, welding and other processes to process the alloy material into the external structure of the sign post (8), cantilever panel (3) and main panel (7), ensuring that the structural dimensions are accurate and the welding is firm. Next, install the rotatable mechanical structure inside the post and main panel, fix the disc motor (2), intelligent motor (6), gear (5), wind speed and direction sensor (1), and control system (4) in the predetermined position, and ensure that the shaft is installed smoothly and can rotate flexibly. Finally, debug the coordination of the cantilever panel and main panel to ensure that the panel surface can rotate according to the design requirements.
[0015] 015. Select a suitable installation location in the scenic area. Usually, choose a location with high terrain, wide vision and not easily blocked by surrounding buildings to affect wind measurement. Use expansion bolts and other fixings to firmly install the signboard on the ground foundation.
[0016] 016. After installation is complete, conduct initial commissioning. Turn on the sign's power supply and check the accuracy of the data collected by the wind speed and direction sensors to ensure stable and error-free data transmission. Review the control system's preset wind thresholds and make fine adjustments based on the actual wind conditions in the scenic area to ensure the sign can accurately and promptly respond to windbreaks under different wind conditions.
[0017] 017. During subsequent use, the signboard should be regularly maintained and inspected, including checking the lubrication condition of the mechanical structure, cleaning and calibration of the sensor, etc., to ensure the long-term stable and efficient operation of the signboard.
