[0017] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0018] Reference Figure 1-2 A traffic flow section monitoring device based on a point-shaped laser radar laser light curtain comprises a shell 1, a cover plate 2 is rotatably mounted on the top of the shell 1, a laser generator 4 and a laser receiver 5 are respectively mounted on both sides of the top of the cover plate 2 through a bracket 3, a partition plate 6 is fixedly mounted on the inner side of the shell 1, a driving motor 7 is mounted on one side of the top of the partition plate 6, one end of the output shaft of the driving motor 7 movably passes through the partition plate 6 and is fixedly connected to a driving gear 8, a rotating rod 9 is rotatably mounted on the middle of the partition plate 6 through a bearing, a driven gear 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating rod 9, and the driven gear 10 is meshed with the driving gear 8, and the top of the rotating rod 9 is fixedly connected to the cover plate 2;

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the diameter of the driven gear 10 is larger than that of the driving gear 8, so that the cover plate 2 can be driven to rotate at a slower speed through the driving motor 7. In actual application, the cover plate 2 rotates perpendicular to the ground. The laser generator 4 adopts a point laser device. During the rotation of the cover plate 2, the laser generator 4 forms a laser light curtain in space. When the laser beam irradiates the vehicle, the laser beam is reflected back by the vehicle, and the laser receiver 5 receives the reflected laser beam and transmits the received data to the background system.

[0020] A slot is provided in the middle of the bottom end of the cover plate 2, and the top head of the rotating rod 9 is inserted into the inner side of the slot. A plurality of positioning screws are installed through the middle of the top end of the cover plate 2, and the bottom ends of the positioning screws are threadedly connected with the head of the rotating rod 9;

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotating rod 9 and the cover plate 2 are fixed by the positioning screw, which is convenient for the later disassembly of the cover plate 2, thereby facilitating the maintenance of the device.

[0022] An annular groove is provided at the top of the housing 1, and a plurality of balls 11 are rollingly connected in the annular groove, and the balls 11 are in contact with the bottom end of the cover plate 2;

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the arrangement of the ball 11 is to reduce the friction between the cover plate 2 and the top of the shell 1. The cover plate 2 is in an inverted cylindrical shape, and the bottom end of its edge is wedge-shaped, and the bottom point is in contact with the outer wall of the shell 1, as shown in the figure below, thereby minimizing friction.

[0024] A circuit board 12 is installed at the bottom of the cover plate 2 at positions corresponding to the laser generator 4 and the laser receiver 5, and the laser generator 4 and the laser receiver 5 are electrically connected to the corresponding circuit board 12, respectively. An electric slip ring 13 is arranged on the outer side of the rotating rod 9, and the wire of the circuit board 12 is connected to the external circuit through the electric slip ring 13;

[0025] By adopting the above technical solution, the electric slip ring 13 is arranged to prevent the corresponding wires from getting entangled when the laser generator 4 and the laser receiver 5 rotate with the cover plate 2. The laser generator 4, the laser receiver 5 and the circuit board 12 are all introductions of the prior art. The circuit board 12 is provided with a data acquisition module of the prior art. After receiving the reflected laser beam, the received data will be transmitted to the background data processing system through the data acquisition module. The data processing system includes components such as a computer and a data acquisition card. The received data is processed by a software program. The data processing system determines whether there is a vehicle passing through the laser light curtain based on the received data, and calculates the flow information of the vehicles passing through the light curtain.

[0027] By adopting the above technical solution, the heat dissipation hole 14 is set to prevent the temperature of the drive motor 7 from being too high when working inside the shell 1, thereby reducing its service life. The heat inside the shell 1 can be discharged in time through the heat dissipation hole 14, and the dustproof net 15 prevents dust from entering the shell 1.

[0028] A mounting frame 16 is fixedly sleeved on the bottom end of the outer side of the housing 1, and a plurality of mounting screws 17 are installed through the edge of the mounting frame 16;

[0029] By adopting the above technical solution, the mounting frame 16 and the mounting screws 17 facilitate the installation and fixation of the housing 1 .

[0030] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention according to the technical scheme and the utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
