Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of tour guide technology, and more specifically, to a shared tour guide and charging cabinet. Background Technology
[0002] A tour guide is an automated explanation device that can be used in any everyday situation where information needs to be conveyed. Existing tour guides are generally carried by hand, in a pocket, or in a backpack, which is inconvenient to carry and requires separate earplugs, making them both inconvenient and unhygienic to use.
[0003] In addition, the existing shared audio guides cannot provide explanations and introductions to the exhibits in different exhibition areas as visitors move to different areas. This results in visitors crowding around the tour guides and unable to gain a clear and complete understanding of the characteristics of the current exhibition area or attraction in real time. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is that the existing shared tour guides cannot explain and introduce the exhibits in the current exhibition area according to the different exhibition areas that tourists walk to. Their functions are relatively simple and they cannot understand the defects of the current exhibition area or attraction in real time. The present invention provides a shared tour guide that can be supported by Internet of Things technology and has better practicality.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by this invention to solve its technical problem is: to construct a shared explanation device, which has the following features:
[0006] First shell,
[0007] The second housing, which cooperates with the first housing, forms a hollow placement space, wherein...
[0008] A recessed square groove is provided on the upper end face of the second housing;
[0009] The screen panel module is horizontally arranged in the square groove of the second housing;

[0032] To provide a clearer understanding of the technical features, objectives, and effects of the present invention, specific embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0033] like Figures 2-6As shown, in the first embodiment of the shared explanation device of the present invention, the shared explanation device 100 includes a first housing 101, a second housing 102, a screen module 103, and a control module 105.
[0034] The first shell 101 is formed into a square structure and is configured as a hollow structure 101a;
[0035] The second housing 102 is formed into a square structure and is configured as an internal hollow structure 102a. Its open end face matches the open end face of the first housing 101 to form a placement space for placing the control module 105 and the battery module 106.
[0036] The screen panel module 103 is set as a square structure, which is used to sense the movement of the operator's finger to control the movement of the pointer (corresponding to the control signal) and is used as a command input;
[0037] The control module 105 is used to receive control signals input from the screen module 103, analyze and process the input control signals, and output corresponding information (sound or image); wherein,
[0038] The control module 105 is also equipped with a wireless communication module that can communicate with external devices (such as transmitter 200, server or charging cabinet). The wireless communication module's transceiver node is paired with the transceiver node of the external device (such as transmitter 200 or charging cabinet 10) to establish a wireless communication connection.
[0039] Specifically, the opening side of the first housing 101 and the opening side of the second housing 102 cooperate with each other to form a hollow placement space; wherein,
[0040] Furthermore, such as Figure 6 As shown, a recessed square groove 102c is provided on the upper end surface of the second housing 102;
[0041] The screen module 103 includes a touch area 103a and an extension 103b.
[0042] The screen module 103 is horizontally positioned (i.e., the end face of the touch area 103a facing upwards) within the square groove 102c of the second housing 102. One end of the extension 103b is connected to the signal terminal of the screen module 103, and the other end of the extension 103b is connected to the signal terminal of the control module 105, so as to realize the signal interaction between the screen module 103 and the control module 105.
[0043] Furthermore, the control module 105 is disposed within the placement space and is equipped with a wireless communication module (not shown). It can be understood that the wireless communication module (not shown) is integrated within the control module 105.
[0044] The receiving node of the wireless communication module (belonging to the control module 105) is wirelessly connected to the transmitting node of the external transmitter 200 to establish a wireless communication connection. This connection is used to extract or acquire the current broadcast information, which is then processed by the analog-to-digital processing module (not shown) or microcontroller (not shown) of the control module 105 before being played back.
[0045] Furthermore, the signal terminal of the control module 105 is connected to the signal terminal of the screen module 103, and is used to receive the control signals input by the screen module 103, and select or switch the current broadcast information according to the control signals.
[0046] Using this technical solution, the control module 105 extracts or acquires the broadcast information (introduction information) of the current exhibition area or attraction, processes and plays the current broadcast information. Users can select or switch the current broadcast information through the screen module 103. Depending on the different exhibition areas visited by tourists, the device is matched with the pre-set transmitter position, and the exhibits in the exhibition area are explained and introduced through the shared guide. This can effectively avoid crowding around the tour guide, and the introduction of the attractions can be heard more clearly and completely. With the support of powerful Internet of Things technology, it has multi-language explanation function.
[0047] In some implementations, in order to improve the reliability of the paired nodes of the shared guide 100, the wireless communication module (not shown) can continuously search for the node signal sources of the surrounding transmitter 200 during the movement of the shared guide 100. In each search cycle, the receiving node of the wireless communication module (not shown) actively matches with the transmitting node of the transmitter 200, selects the strongest node signal at the moment for processing and playback.
[0048] For example, when a tourist uses a shared audio guide 100 to search for information about the attractions' nodes, which operate 24 / 7, the shared audio guide 100 receives broadcast information from the nodes via Bluetooth BLE (a wireless communication module). This information is then processed by the control module 105 and played back to show the current attraction information. During this process, the shared audio guide 100 continuously searches for the signal sources of the surrounding transmitters 200. In each search cycle, it selects the node with the highest signal value to play, ensuring that the information played is for the current attraction.
[0049] In some implementations, when the receiving node of the shared guide 100 receives the trigger signal from the transmitting node of the transmitter 200, it can recall and play relevant audio and images to achieve seamless explanation.
[0050] For example, the equipment is matched with 200 pre-set transmitters, and the exhibits in the exhibition area are explained and introduced through the shared audio guide 100;
[0051] Tourists can rent a shared audio guide to visit any attraction within the scenic area. The device will automatically play content related to the current attraction, such as pictures and sound.
[0052] Existing audio guides are simply earphones. When tourists visit a museum, they may see several artifacts at the same time at a certain attraction, but they cannot tell which artifact is being described through the earphones. Therefore, the shared audio guide 100 has added an image function. When the audio guide is playing, the device will display the current content and images, allowing tourists to quickly identify which artifact is being described.
[0053] In some implementations, the shared guide 100 supports at least Bluetooth audio transmission and reception, Bluetooth BLE data interaction and analog 800MHz F wireless reception, wherein the nodes use Bluetooth communication, with a Bluetooth frequency range of 2402MHz-2480MHz.
[0054] For example, Bluetooth audio transmission and reception enables communication with Bluetooth headsets;
[0055] Bluetooth BLE data transmission enables communication with nodes;
[0056] Simulate 800MHz F wireless reception to receive the tour guide's explanations.
[0057] In the tour guide mode, the tour guide sends audio wirelessly, and the shared audio guide 100 receives it to provide a noise-free tour guide experience. Different wireless audio transmission methods can be used to transmit audio, and all of them can be replaced.
[0058] The self-guided tour mode includes Bluetooth BLE broadcast of attraction information, which is received by the shared tour guide 100 and automatically pushed, for example, using 2.4G communication or 433.92MHz.
[0059] In some implementations, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, it also includes a battery module 106, which is disposed in the placement space and is fitted to the control module 105. A charging interface 105a is provided on one side of the control module 105, and the battery module 106 charges the mobile communication device through the charging interface 105a.
[0060] In some implementations, such as Figure 5 As shown, at least one set of placement slots 101a and grooves 101b communicating with the placement slots 101a are provided on the back of the first housing 101. The grooves 101b are used to place the charging interface 105a.
[0061] In some implementations, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, one end face of the second housing 102 forms a hollow structure 102a, and a square opening 102b is provided on one side of the hollow structure 101a. A support plate 104 is provided at the lower end of the square opening 102b. The support plate 104 is provided on one side of the square opening 102b and is in contact with the lower end face of the screen panel module 103.
[0062] Furthermore, semi-circular openings (101b and 102d) are provided at the upper ends of the first housing 101 and the second housing 102.
[0063] When the first housing 101 and the second housing 102 are engaged, the opening 101b of the first housing 101 and the opening 102d of the second housing 102 engage with each other to form a circular opening, through which the POGOPING spring pin 105b on the control module 105 can extend to the outside.
