Its core function is real-time wind speed monitoring, and it supports switching between multiple units.

[0003] Currently, existing outdoor weather instruments have many problems: 1. Currently, outdoor small weather instruments on the market have many integrated sensors and are complicated to assemble, which limits the protection of external sensors and the sealing and waterproof performance of internal mechanisms.

[0004] 2. Currently, outdoor mini weather instruments on the market are limited by their design, making assembly cumbersome, unattractive, and resulting in a poor user experience.

[0005] 3. Currently, due to insufficient protective design, small outdoor weather instruments on the market are exposed to complex outdoor environments. After prolonged use, it is difficult to avoid insects and other pests coming into contact with the exposed sensors or nesting and living on the surface of the exposed sensors, which leads to contamination of the sensor surface and reduces the accuracy of the sensors.

A weather instrument mounting base 11 is embedded at the bottom of the bottom louvers 5. A second sealing ring 12 is embedded between the weather instrument mounting base 11 and the louvers 5. The bottom of the louver 5 is provided with multiple fixed tube posts 6, and the bottom of the fixed tube posts 6 and the bottom of the main board bottom cover 2 are provided with docking holes 4. The top of the weather instrument mounting base 11 and the top of the louver 5 are integrally formed with docking protrusions 10, and the docking protrusions 10 and the docking holes 4 are fitted together. The top of the louver 5 is provided with mounting rings 7 that penetrate the louver 5, and a protective net 8 is provided between two mounting rings 7. The two ends of the protective net 8 are provided with slots 9, and the slots 9 are fitted together with the mounting rings 7.

[0021] Reference Figure 3 The weather instrument mounting base 11 has multiple mounting slots 13 on one side, and a fixing long screw 14 is inserted into the mounting slot 13. The fixing long screw 14 passes through the louvers 5 and the main board bottom cover 2 in sequence and is threaded to the top of the main board top cover 1, thereby completing the fastening installation of multiple louvers 5, main board top cover 1 and main board bottom cover 2. The main board top cover 1 and main board bottom cover 2 are equipped with an algorithm main board 16, and the algorithm main board 16 is fixedly connected to the fixing long screw 14 by bolts. The bottom of the algorithm main board 16 is fixed with a weather element sensor 17 by bolts.

[0022] The bottom of the weather instrument mounting base 11 is fitted with a waterproof aviation plug 15. The communication cable of the algorithm motherboard 16 is connected to the waterproof aviation plug 15 through a conduit with a nested structure to communicate with the control center. The space between the waterproof aviation plug 15 and the weather instrument mounting base 11 is filled with sealant.

[0023] The motherboard top cover 1 has multiple first support rods 18 on its top, and a second support rod 19 is embedded in the top of the first support rod 18. The second support rod 19 has a lower cover 20 on its top, and an upper cover 22 is embedded in the top of the lower cover 20. A third sealing ring 23 is embedded between the lower cover 20 and the upper cover 22. A short fixing screw 21 is inserted into the top of the motherboard top cover 1. The short fixing screw 21 passes through the first support rod 18, the second support rod 19 and the lower cover 20 in sequence and is threaded to the upper cover 22.

[0024] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: During use, a first sealing ring 3 is embedded between the main board top cover 1 and the main board bottom cover 2, ensuring the sealing of the meteorological element sensor 17 and the algorithm main board 16. The lower cover 20 and the upper cover 22 of the top cover are embedded with a third sealing ring 23 to seal the top cover, making its cavity a sealed cavity. As a design reserve, other element sensors can be built in. A fixing long screw 14 is inserted from the bottom of the meteorological instrument mounting base 11. The fixing long screw 14 passes through the louver 5 and the main board bottom cover 2 in sequence and is threaded to the top of the main board top cover 1, thereby connecting the meteorological instrument mounting base 11, The louver 5, the main board bottom cover 2, and the main board top cover 1 are fixed together. The meteorological instrument mounting base 11 is fastened to the louver 5 and the second sealing ring 12 is embedded to ensure that its cavity is sealed. The algorithm main board 16 is fixed on the main board top cover 1. The meteorological element sensor 17 is fixed on the algorithm main board 16 through its tail nut. After the sensor part passes through the reserved hole of the main board bottom cover 2, the gap is sealed with glue. The waterproof aviation plug 15 is installed in the reserved hole at the bottom of the meteorological instrument mounting base 11 and sealed with glue. The algorithm main board 16 and the meteorological element sensor 17 are electrically connected to the waterproof aviation plug 15. Four louvers 5 are stacked and interlocked. The uppermost louver 5 is interlocked with the main board bottom cover 2 and the uppermost louver 5 is interlocked with the meteorological instrument mounting base 11. The louver 5 has a mounting ring 7 in the middle. The protective net 8 is designed as a ring mesh structure and is interlocked with the upper and lower mounting rings 7. It works with the louvers 5 to expose the meteorological element sensor 17 to the external environment while avoiding direct contact with sunlight, rain, snow and rain, etc., to ensure the environmental reliability of the meteorological element sensor 17. At the same time, the protective net 8 prevents outdoor flying insects and insects from contacting the meteorological element sensor 17 or nesting around it and causing damage, thus ensuring the protection of the meteorological element sensor 17. After the main board bottom cover 2, louver 5 and weather instrument mounting base 11 are fitted together, they are fixed to the pre-set screw holes inside the main board top cover 1 by a fixing long screw 14.

[0025] Example 2: Refer to Figure 7 A small outdoor weather instrument, also including a cleaning component for cleaning the outdoor weather instrument, the cleaning component including a handle 24, a fixing keel 25 on one side of the handle 24, and a plurality of cleaning brushes 26 on the outer surface of the fixing keel 25.

[0026] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: When in use, the fixed keel 25 is a flexible structure that can be inserted into irregular gaps. As it is inserted into the gap, the keel can flexibly change shape according to the shape of the gap. That is, the cleaning brush 26 can be inserted into the gap between the louvers 5 to clean the protective net 8. During the cleaning process, the protective net 8 can also prevent the brush from directly contacting the meteorological element sensor 17, so that the meteorological element sensor 17 can be maintained without disassembly.
