[0028] 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 in 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.

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, the utility model provides a safe combustible gas composite detection device, including: a microcontroller; a CO detection module 10, the CO detection module 10 is connected to the microcontroller, and is used to collect the CO concentration in the environment and generate a CO concentration value to feed back to the microcontroller; H 2 Detection module 20, H 2 The detection module 20 is connected to the microcontroller and is used to collect H 2 concentration and generate H 2 The concentration value is fed back to the microcontroller; a CAN safety fence, which is connected to the microcontroller for communication transmission; an alarm module, which is connected to the microcontroller, and the CO concentration value exceeds the first predetermined threshold or H 2When the concentration exceeds the second predetermined threshold, the microcontroller controls the alarm module to send out an alarm message; the power circuit is connected to the microcontroller and is used to provide a working voltage. The power circuit is also connected to a power safety fence, which is connected to an external host.

[0030] The microcontroller may specifically include a microcontroller unit (MCU), a central processing unit (CPU), a microprocessor (microprocessor), a digital signal processor (DSP), a programmable controller, a programmable logic device (PLD) or other similar devices or a combination of these devices, and the present invention is not limited thereto. In addition, in some embodiments, each function of the microcontroller may be implemented by one or more circuits. In this embodiment, a high-reliability MCU is preferably used.

[0031] The CO detection module 10 includes: a plurality of CO sensors, and a first conditioning circuit connected to the CO sensors, the first conditioning circuit is used to condition the CO concentration value into a digital signal readable by a microcontroller, the first conditioning circuit can be implemented by, for example, an existing digital-to-analog conversion module, and the number of CO sensors can be set as needed, thereby realizing the detection and collection of CO concentration and the transmission of CO concentration value.

[0032] H 2 The detection module 20 includes: 2 Sensors, and H 2 The sensor is connected to a second conditioning circuit, the second conditioning circuit is used to convert H 2 The concentration value is conditioned into a digital signal that can be read by the microcontroller. The second conditioning circuit can also be implemented using an existing digital-to-analog conversion module. 2 The number of sensors can be set as needed to achieve H 2 Concentration detection and collection as well as H 2 In this embodiment, the CO sensor and H 2 The sensors all use ultra-low power consumption electrochemical type sensors, which can effectively increase the service life of the overall device.

[0033] The alarm module includes one or more of a buzzer, an audible and visual alarm, and a speaker. In this embodiment, the alarm module uses a buzzer, and the alarm information is a buzzer. In actual applications, different alarm faults can also be represented by setting buzzers of different frequencies.

[0034] Both the CAN safety fence and the power safety fence are used to limit the working voltage and current within a certain safety range, so that the energy of the device in the working or fault state is controlled within a safe range that will not ignite flammable and explosive gases. In this embodiment, both the CAN safety fence and the power safety fence can adopt isolated safety fences; and the capacitors in the power supply circuit and other circuit modules in this embodiment all adopt chip ceramic capacitors instead of electrolytic capacitors, so the electrolytic capacitor will not fail due to exhaustion of electrolyte due to time reasons.

When the CO concentration value exceeds the first predetermined threshold value or H 2 When the concentration value exceeds the second predetermined threshold value, the microcontroller controls the alarm module to send out an alarm message, prompting the supervisor to handle it in time. At the same time, it can be connected to the display device, external host, etc. through the CAN safety barrier to display data or connect to the fire warning system for fire extinguishing. Since the CAN safety barrier and the power safety barrier are set, the energy released by the circuit can be controlled during use, so that the device will not release energy sufficient to ignite flammable and explosive gases in normal working and fault conditions, thereby improving the overall safety of the device without the need to use a heavy explosion-proof casing, so it can maintain a smaller size and lighter weight, and installation is also more convenient, and can greatly reduce the production cost of the product.
