Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a base, mounting structure, and disassembly method for a portable and detachable Bluetooth beacon on a steel component, belonging to the field of steel component turnover and positioning technology. Background Technology

[0002] A Bluetooth beacon is a small wireless signal transmitter based on Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology. Its core function is to continuously broadcast Bluetooth signal packets to transmit its own identifier (unique ID) and associated data to surrounding compatible devices (such as Bluetooth gateways, mobile phones, tablets, etc.). It is widely used in scenarios such as positioning, tracking, and information push.

[0003] Existing Bluetooth beacon standard devices generally have two fixing methods: one is to directly adhere to the target object using double-sided tape, and the other is to have two built-in ear plates that can be fixed to soft materials such as wood and plastic using self-tapping screws or screws.

[0004] In existing technologies in the field of steel components, when there are no pre-drilled holes on the steel component for bolt installation of Bluetooth beacons, the only option is to fix the Bluetooth beacon using strong adhesive. For example, publication number CN119721930A, publication date 2025.03.28, subject "Monitoring Method for Steel Support Components of Tensioned Beams Based on Bluetooth," discloses a "Low Power Bluetooth Module" that uses this adhesive fixing method. Therefore, the existing technology presents the following problems:

[0005] 1. When the surface treatment of the components is not done properly, the Bluetooth beacon is prone to falling off.

[0006] 2. If the component is outdoors, it may be exposed to long-term rain and water erosion. Even if the adhesive surface is smooth, the strong adhesive may become passivated and its adhesion may decrease, leading to detachment.

[0007] 3. The strong adhesive may not hold properly under impact, causing it to come loose.

[0008] 4. Difficult to remove when changing / replacing the Bluetooth beacon battery. Summary of the Invention

[0009] The purpose of this invention is to provide a portable and detachable Bluetooth beacon base on a steel component. When there are no pre-drilled holes on the component for bolt installation of the Bluetooth beacon, the base is welded to the component, and the Bluetooth beacon is installed on the base by bolt fixing. At the same time, the Bluetooth beacon can be replaced by moving and removing the bolts.

[0010] The present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0011] A base for a portable and detachable Bluetooth beacon on a steel component includes a flat plate 1; several feet 103 extend vertically to one side of the flat plate 1, leaving a gap between the feet 103 and the flat plate; an elongated groove 102 is formed on the flat plate, and a guide groove 104 extends from the elongated groove 102 to one side, and a bolt guide hole 101 is also provided on the guide groove 104; the outer diameter of the small end of the bolt fastener for the beacon 2 is smaller than the groove width of the elongated groove 102 and the guide groove 104; the outer diameter of the large end is larger than the groove width of the elongated groove 102 and the guide groove, and smaller than the inner diameter of the guide hole 101; the thickness of the large end of the bolt fastener for the Bluetooth beacon 2 is smaller than the height of the feet 103.

[0012] Preferably, the heights of the plurality of feet 103 are equal.

[0013] Furthermore, the plate is rectangular, and the base 103 is located on both sides of the plate and is rectangular in shape, which is used to increase the weldable area of ​​the base 103.

[0014] Preferably, the lengths of the elongated grooves 102 located on both sides of the guide groove 104 are equal.

[0015] Preferably, the base is made of metal, and the feet 103 on both sides are rigidly connected to the plate 1 by welding.

[0016] Furthermore, the base is made of steel, and the elongated groove 102, guide groove 104, and guide hole 101 are formed by stamping.

[0017] A mounting structure for a portable detachable Bluetooth beacon base on a steel component, as described above, further includes a steel component having a flat portion, and a base 103 being fixed to the flat portion by welding, thus being integrated with the steel component.

[0018] A method for assembling and disassembling the mounting structure of a portable detachable Bluetooth beacon base on the aforementioned steel component includes the following steps:

[0019] S1. After the base is welded to the flat part of the steel component, the large end of the bolt fastener enters the gap from the bolt guide hole 101 with the large end inverted.

[0020] S2. The small end of the bolt fastener enters the elongated groove 102 along the guide groove 104, and then moves laterally towards the installation location. Taking advantage of the fact that the width of the elongated groove 102 is smaller than the diameter of the large end of the bolt, the Bluetooth beacon 2 is fixed with a nut.

[0021] Furthermore, when Bluetooth beacon 2 needs to be removed,

[0022] S3. First, remove the nut;

[0023] S4. Then remove the Bluetooth beacon;

[0024] S5. Finally, move the bolt into the bolt guide hole 101 and remove the bolt.

[0025] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

[0026] 1) No need to drill holes in the components, thus affecting the structural stress;

[0027] 2) The beacon can be securely installed on the component by bolt connection, which reduces the risk of falling off due to the passivation of strong adhesive and reduced adhesion caused by improper surface treatment of the component or outdoor exposure to possible long-term rain erosion.

[0028] 3) The base and bolt guide holes allow for easy disassembly of the Bluetooth beacon for installation, removal, and replacement. Attached Figure Description

[0036] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0037] See Figure 1 A base for a portable and detachable Bluetooth beacon on a steel component includes a tablet 1; the tablet extends vertically to one side with two feet 103, leaving a gap between the feet 103 and the tablet.

[0038] A long strip groove 102 is provided on the flat plate, and a guide groove 104 is extended to one side of the long strip groove 102. A bolt guide hole 101 is also provided on the guide groove 104.

[0039] Combination Figure 2-5 The outer diameter of the small end of the bolt fastener for Bluetooth beacon 2 is smaller than the width of the elongated groove 102 and the guide groove 104; the outer diameter of the large end is larger than the width of the elongated groove 102 and the guide groove, and smaller than the inner diameter of the guide hole 101; the thickness of the large end of the bolt fastener for Bluetooth beacon 2 is smaller than the height of the foot 103.

[0040] In this embodiment, see Figure 1 The two feet 103 are at the same height, so the gap is also uniform.

[0041] In this embodiment, the base is made of metal, and the feet 103 on both sides are rigidly connected to the plate 1 by welding.

[0042] In this embodiment, see Figure 1 The plate is rectangular, and the base 103 is located on both sides of the plate and is rectangular strip. Since the base 103 needs to be welded to the steel component, this strip shape can increase the weldable area of ​​the base 103.

[0043] In this embodiment, see Figure 1 The lengths of the elongated grooves 102 located on both sides of the guide groove 104 are equal.

[0044] In this embodiment, see Figure 1 The base is made of steel, and the elongated groove 102, guide groove 104, and guide hole 101 are formed by stamping.

[0045] See Figure 3-6 A mounting structure for a portable detachable Bluetooth beacon base on the aforementioned steel component further includes a steel component having a flat portion, and the base 103 is fixed to the flat portion by welding, thus being integrated with the steel component.

[0046] The method for assembling and disassembling the mounting structure of the portable detachable Bluetooth beacon base on the aforementioned steel component includes the following steps:

[0047] S1, such as Figure 6 As shown, after the base is welded to the flat portion of the steel component, it forms an integral part with the steel component, and the large end of the bolt fastener enters the gap from the bolt guide hole 101 with the bolt inverted position (this process is not shown in the figure).

[0048] S2, Combination Figure 1 and Figure 6 The small end of the bolt fastener enters the elongated groove 102 along the guide groove 104, and then moves laterally towards the installation location. Taking advantage of the fact that the width of the elongated groove 102 is smaller than the diameter of the large end of the bolt, the Bluetooth beacon 2 is secured with a nut. Figure 5 As shown;

[0049] Furthermore, when Bluetooth beacon 2 needs to be removed,

[0050] S3 Figure 5 This is the initial state. First, remove the removal nut on it (this action is not shown in the attached diagram).

[0051] S4. Then remove the Bluetooth beacon, such as Figure 6 As shown;

[0052] S5, Combination Figure 1 and 6 Finally, move the bolt into the bolt guide hole 101 and remove the bolt (this action is not shown in the attached diagram).

[0053] It should be noted that bolt fasteners are generally used as accessories for Bluetooth beacon 2 products, so they are not usually part of the products involved in this invention. However, the "base" involved in this invention must be designed with corresponding dimensions based on the dimensions of the bolt fastener, and the two are related in size.

[0054] Since the size of the bolt fasteners is close to that of "standard parts", the "base" in this invention can be used as an independent product. In fact, the base 1 is used as an independent product in this case, forming the smallest basic unit of this invention.

[0055] In summary, this invention eliminates the need for drilling holes in the components, thus avoiding impacting the structural stress. The beacon can be securely mounted to the component via bolts, reducing the risk of detachment due to reduced adhesive strength caused by improper component surface treatment or exposure to prolonged rain. The included feet and bolt guide holes facilitate easy disassembly and replacement of the Bluetooth beacon.

[0056] The above are preferred embodiments of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications or improvements based on these embodiments. Without departing from the overall concept of the present invention, such modifications or improvements should fall within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.
