Therefore, transportation infrastructure monitoring systems with different architectures have been developed and put into use.
[0003] At present, construction companies generally use corresponding traffic infrastructure monitoring systems to monitor and manage the multiple construction projects they are constructing. Generally, the data signal of the construction site needs to be sent to the front-end computer through a very long data line or network transmission method, and then sent to the back-end computer, i.e. the monitoring system, after preprocessing by the front-end computer. Due to the influence of the size of the front-end computer, the front-end computer can generally only be placed in the specified place of use, and the place of use of the front-end computer will be limited, that is, this method of using the front-end computer in the specified place for preprocessing is relatively limited; if the working place of the front-end computer is far away from the construction site, it will be affected by the data line transmission and network transmission, and there will be problems such as slow transmission speed and data loss. Therefore, it is very necessary to set up a device that can adapt to different construction environments and can preprocess the transmission signal of the monitoring system. Utility Model Content

[0027] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0028] Embodiment 1:
[0029] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, a lightweight box for traffic infrastructure monitoring includes a box body 1 and an edge computing processor 2 arranged inside the box body 1, wherein: a multi-channel interface 3 is arranged on the side of the box body 1, and the multi-channel interface 3 includes a power port 301, a USB connection port 302, a network port 303 and a debugging port 304, and the power port 301, the USB connection port 302, the network port 303 and the debugging port 304 are all electrically connected to the edge computing processor 2.
[0030] Among them, the power supply device of the peripheral device can supply power to the edge computing processor 2 through the power port 301; the sensor acquisition device of the peripheral device can transmit the collected signal to the edge computing processor 2 through the USB connection port 302; the edge computing processor 2 can be connected to the network through the network port 303; the edge computing processor 2 can be pre-debugged before use through the debugging port 304. It should be noted that the size of the box body 1 can be set small enough to meet the above conditions, so that it is easy to carry and can also be used in construction sites in different environments.
[0031] It should be noted that the edge computing processor 2 in this embodiment is set by conventional technical means in the prior art, for example, it is set as a processor of the model MSP430 manufactured by Renesas Electronics. The edge computing processor 2 in this embodiment has edge computing such as data cleaning, alarm judgment, and vehicle-induced response separation, and also has functions such as uploading statistical data and alarm data to the cloud server; its other functions are also reflected in the following usage steps.
[0032] When the utility model is used, the steps are as follows:
[0033] Step 1: First, the multi-channel interface 3 is connected to the sensor collection device, and the on-site sensor collection device is connected through multiple interfaces, and the data is analyzed and standardized according to the message rules of different hardware.
[0034] Step 2: Next, the edge computing processor 2 parses the data and stores it locally in full. It uses its own SSD to compress the parsed original data and stores the parsed data on the edge in a compressed format, which has high space utilization.
[0035] Step 3: Then, the edge computing processor 2 performs edge computing statistics and alarm identification on the data; uses the built-in monitoring data processing algorithm to perform edge computing such as cleaning, alarm judgment, and vehicle-induced response separation on the original data to improve processing timeliness.
[0036] Step 4. Next, the edge computing processor 2 uploads statistical data and alarm data to the cloud server; while retaining the full amount of original data, only statistical data and alarm data are reported, which reduces power consumption and traffic consumption and saves costs.
[0037] Step 5. Finally, the cloud displays the alarm results, stores statistical data, and implements other business applications. The alarm threshold, communication address statistical frequency, algorithm parameters, etc. can be configured in the cloud to reduce the manpower investment in on-site operation and maintenance.
[0038] Furthermore, the power port 301, USB connection port 302, network port 303 and debugging port 304 can be arranged in sequence on the same side of the box body 1. By placing the edge computing processor 2 and the multi-channel interface 3 inside and on the side of the box body 1, respectively, a reasonable layout of different modules is achieved, ensuring the compact size of the utility model, achieving reliable and stable line connection and lightweight box.
[0039] In order to dissipate heat for the edge computing processor 2 disposed inside the box body 1, a plurality of heat dissipation holes 4 may be provided on the box body 1. At the same time, in order to protect the edge computing processor 2, a buffer pad (not shown in the figure) for protecting the edge computing processor 2 may be provided inside the box body 1. In order to provide stability for the edge computing processor 2 inside the box body 1, the edge computing processor 2 may be provided inside the box body 1 by fastening bolts.
[0040] Preferably, in order for the utility model to be adaptable to use in different regions, the utility model may include a self-powered control module (not shown in the figure) disposed inside the box body 1 and used to supply energy to the edge computing processor 2. The self-powered control module can be used to power the edge computing processor 2 without the need to connect electricity through the power port 301, wherein the self-powered control module includes a solar panel. As an improvement, the box body 1 is made of aviation aluminum to make it light, waterproof, and insulated.
[0041] Embodiment 2:
[0042] like Figure 4-Figure 6 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that, on the basis of providing a plurality of heat dissipation through holes 4 (in this embodiment, the positions of the plurality of heat dissipation through holes 4 are adaptively fine-tuned), a slide groove 5 is also provided on the box body 1, and a slider 6 is slidably mounted on the slide groove 5, and a protective cover plate 7 for opening or covering the plurality of heat dissipation through holes 4 is fixedly mounted on the slider 6. Furthermore, a sealing gasket 8 is detachably provided at the bottom of the protective cover plate 7. With the provision of this protective cover plate 7, when the utility model is not in use, the protective cover plate 7 can be covered on the plurality of heat dissipation through holes 4 to prevent them from being eroded by external dust and the like; when the utility model is in use, the protective cover plate 7 can be opened to the plurality of heat dissipation through holes 4, so that the plurality of heat dissipation through holes 4 can be subjected to normal heat dissipation treatment.
[0043] The above is a detailed description of an embodiment of the utility model, but the content is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model and cannot be considered to limit the scope of implementation of the utility model. All equivalent changes and improvements made within the scope of application of the utility model should still fall within the scope of the patent coverage of the utility model.
