[0021] In order to make the technical means, creative features, achieved purposes and effects of the present utility model easy to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific implementation manners.

[0022] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 , the present utility model provides a technical solution: a radar detection and calibration device, including a first fixing ring 1, a fixing frame 4 is fixedly arranged on the outer wall of one side of the first fixing ring 1, a vertical plate 6 is arranged on one side of the fixing frame 4 through an adjustment mechanism 5, a chassis 9 and a cross bar 7 are respectively fixedly arranged at the top and one side of the bottom end of the vertical plate 6, a corner reflector 8 is fixedly arranged between the chassis 9 and the cross bar 7, the corner reflector 8 includes a fixing column 15, a bottom plate 17 is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the fixing column 15, and electric heating wires 18 are fixedly arranged inside both the bottom plate 17 and the fixing column 15. By arranging the electric heating wires 18 inside the bottom plate 17 and the fixing column 15, it is convenient to heat the corner reflector 8, thereby heating and melting the snow on the corner reflector 8, avoiding the influence of snow on the recognition of the corner radar, with high practicability and improving the accuracy of the corner radar.

[0023] In this embodiment, the adjusting mechanism 5 includes a screw rod 12 and an adjusting plate 13. A fixing block 11 is fixedly arranged at the middle position inside the fixing frame 4. The screw rod 12 is rotationally installed in the fixing block 11 in a limited manner. The screw rod 12 is rotatably arranged inside the fixing frame 4. The top end of the screw rod 12 is fixedly provided with a knob, and the knob is arranged above the fixing frame 4. The adjusting plate 13 is slidably installed in the top and bottom parts of the fixing frame 4 in a limited manner. The adjusting plate 13 is screwed to the top and bottom ends of the screw rod 12 through screw holes. The fixing block 11 is movably connected to the middle position of one side of the vertical plate 6 through a pivot. Triangular plates 14 are symmetrically and fixedly arranged on the side walls of the vertical plate 6 corresponding to the upper and lower sides of the pivot. One end of the adjusting plate 13 is in movable contact with one hypotenuse of the triangular plate 14. By driving the screw rod 12 to rotate through the knob, the screw rod 12 drives the adjusting plates 13 at the top and bottom to lift synchronously, facilitating the rotational adjustment of the vertical plate 6 through the action of the adjusting plate 13 and the triangular plate 14, thereby adjusting the angle of the corner reflector 8 and facilitating the use in different scenarios and different corner radars.

[0024] In this embodiment, fixing plates 16 are fixedly arranged between the four sides of the fixing column 15 and the bottom plate 17. Adjacent fixing plates 16 are perpendicular to each other, and the fixing plates 16 and the bottom plate 17 are perpendicular to each other. The fixing plates 16 are made of metal and can conduct heat, facilitating the acceleration of snow melting and improving the snow melting efficiency.

[0025] In this embodiment, one end of the first fixing ring 1 is movably installed with a second fixing ring 2 through a hinge. The first fixing ring 1 and the second fixing ring 2 are both semi-circular in shape. Rubber pads 3 are fixedly arranged on the inner walls of the first fixing ring 1 and the second fixing ring 2. The other ends of the first fixing ring 1 and the second fixing ring 2 are fixedly provided with convex edges, and mounting holes are formed inside the convex edges. A column 10 is installed inside the first fixing ring 1 and the second fixing ring 2. The rubber pads 3 can increase the friction between the first fixing ring 1, the second fixing ring 2 and the column 10. The convex edges and the mounting holes facilitate the fixation between the first fixing ring 1 and the second fixing ring 2, facilitating the installation of the device and thus improving the stability of the device.

[0026] When using this radar detection and calibration device, according to different angular radars, the first fixing ring 1 and the second fixing ring 2 are rotated and opened through hinges, and the first fixing ring 1 and the second fixing ring 2 are installed on the outside of the column 10. Rotate the first fixing ring 1 and the second fixing ring 2 in the reverse direction, bring the ends of the first fixing ring 1 and the second fixing ring 2 provided with convex edges closer, and install bolts inside the mounting holes to conveniently fix the first fixing ring 1 and the second fixing ring 2 at an appropriate height on the column 10. The rubber pads 3 provided can increase the friction between the first fixing ring 1, the second fixing ring 2 and the column 10, thereby improving the stability of the device. According to needs, rotate the knob, and the knob drives the adjusting plate 13 to slide up and down in a limited manner inside the fixed frame 4 through the screw rod 12. One end of the adjusting plate 13 squeezes the triangular plate 14, causing the vertical plate 6 to rotate on the fixed block 11 through the pivot. The vertical plate 6 drives the corner reflector 8 to tilt through the cross bar 7 and the chassis 9, thereby adjusting the angle of the corner reflector 8. By installing the electric heating wire 18 inside the fixed column 15 and the bottom plate 17, the corner reflector 8 can be heated in snowy weather, thereby melting the snow on the corner reflector 8 and ensuring the accuracy of the angular radar detection and calibration in snowy weather, with high practicality. The stability of the corner reflector 8 can be improved through the cross bar 7 and the chassis 9; the angular radar installed on the vehicle emits electromagnetic waves. When the electromagnetic waves scan three mutually perpendicular surfaces on the corner reflector 8, the electromagnetic waves will be refracted and amplified on the metal corner, thereby generating a very strong echo signal, and then aligning and calibrating it with the actual scene.

[0027] In addition, it should be understood that although this specification is described according to embodiments, not every embodiment only contains an independent technical solution. This narrative way of the specification is only for clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
