Detailed implementation manners

[0033] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present disclosure, the following will further describe the solutions of the present disclosure. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of the present disclosure and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0034] Many specific details are set forth in the following description to facilitate a thorough understanding of the present disclosure, but the present disclosure may be implemented in other ways different from those described herein; obviously, the embodiments in the specification are only a part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0035] The following will give an exemplary description of the protection system provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure with reference to the drawings.

[0036] Figure 1 Structural schematic diagram of a protection system provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. Refer to Figure 1, the protection system includes: a centralized control device 110 and multiple protection devices 120; each protection device 120 includes a guardrail body 121, a vehicle identification module 122, a positioning module 123, and a communication module 124; the vehicle identification module 122, the positioning module 123, and the communication module 124 are interconnected and fixed to the guardrail body 121; the vehicle identification module 122 is used to identify target vehicles within a preset distance; the positioning module 123 is used to generate real-time position information of the guardrail body 121; the centralized control device 110 is used to generate construction area information based on the real-time position information of each guardrail body 121; the communication module 124 is used to communicate with the centralized control device 110 and send the received construction area information to the in-vehicle terminal of the target vehicle.

[0037] Among them, multiple guardrail bodies 121 are located near the construction area to isolate the construction area from passing vehicles. Exemplarily, Figure 2 is a schematic structural diagram of a protection device provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure, Figure 2 showing that the guardrail body 121 is a traffic cone, and the vehicle identification module 122, the positioning module 123, and the communication module 124 are fixed to the upper right of the guardrail body 121 to minimize the probability of the above modules falling due to environmental factors. In other embodiments, the guardrail body 121 can also be a water-filled traffic cone, and the vehicle identification module 122, the positioning module 123, and the communication module 124 can also be fixed in the middle, lower left or other positions of the guardrail body 121, which is not limited herein.

[0038] Specifically, the positioning module 123 transmits the real-time position information of the guardrail body 121 to the centralized control device 110 through the communication module 124. After receiving the real-time position information of each guardrail body 121, the centralized control device 110 integrates, analyzes, and processes it, and generates construction area information. On this basis, the vehicle identification module 122 identifies whether there is a vehicle approaching within a preset distance. If so, the centralized control device 110 sends the construction area information to the in-vehicle terminal of the vehicle (i.e., the target vehicle) within the preset distance, and informs the vehicle occupants of the construction area information through the in-vehicle terminal to ensure that the vehicle can stay away from the construction area in time and avoid safety accidents caused by the vehicle accidentally entering the construction area. Exemplarily, the preset distance can be 100 meters, 200 meters or other distances, and the length of the preset distance can be set according to vehicle identification requirements, as long as the vehicle identification module 122 can identify the vehicle in advance, which is not limited herein.

[0039] Exemplarily, the in-vehicle terminal may include a touch-type center console screen, which integrates functions such as navigation, multimedia playback, and phone connection. Taking the navigation function it executes as an example, the passengers in the vehicle can click on the navigation icon on the center console screen to enter the navigation interface and display the surrounding map. When the in-vehicle terminal receives the construction area information, it can superimpose the construction area information on the surrounding map and display the construction area in the surrounding map, enabling the passengers in the vehicle to more intuitively understand the scope of the construction area. Alternatively, the in-vehicle terminal can also broadcast the construction area information in the form of voice prompts, including but not limited to, broadcasting information such as the area and perimeter of the construction area, and reminding the passengers in the vehicle to drive carefully. Here, the specific form of the in-vehicle terminal informing the passengers in the vehicle of the construction area information is not limited.

[0040] It can be understood that the centralized control device 110, the protection device 120, and the in-vehicle terminal may all be provided with communication modules, so that wireless transmission methods are used for communication among the three, such as wireless transmission methods like WIFI and Bluetooth. The specific communication methods of the three can be set according to the information transmission requirements of the protection system, which are not limited here.

[0041] The protection system provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure includes: a centralized control device 110 and multiple protection devices 120; each protection device 120 includes a guardrail body 121, a vehicle identification module 122, a positioning module 123, and a communication module 124; the vehicle identification module 122, the positioning module 123, and the communication module 124 are connected to each other and fixed to the guardrail body 121; the vehicle identification module 122 is used to identify target vehicles within a preset distance; the positioning module 123 is used to generate real-time position information of the guardrail body 121; the centralized control device 110 is used to generate construction area information based on the real-time position information of each guardrail body 121; the communication module 124 is used to communicate with the centralized control device 110 and send the received construction area information to the in-vehicle terminal of the target vehicle. In this way, by sending the construction area information to the in-vehicle terminal of the target vehicle, safety warnings can be given to passing vehicles to stay away from the construction area in time, avoiding vehicle safety accidents and being beneficial to protecting the personal safety of the passengers in the vehicle.

[0042] In some embodiments, Figure 3 It is a schematic diagram of the distribution structure of a protection device provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure. Refer to Figure 3 , multiple protection devices 120 are arranged at intervals on the edge of the construction area 01.

[0043] Among them, each protection device 120 is located at the edge inflection point of the construction area 01. Exemplarily, taking Figure 2For example, in the figure, the construction area 01 is shown as an irregular shape, and a plurality of protection devices 120 are arranged at different inflection points on the edge of the construction area 01. The adjacent protection devices 120 are connected in sequence, and thus the range of the construction area 01 can be determined. For the principle of the centralized control device generating the construction area information, refer to the above process, which will not be elaborated here.

[0044] In this way, by arranging each protection device 120 at the edge inflection point of the construction area 01, not only can the range of the construction area 01 be accurately determined, but also the installation quantity of the protection devices 120 can be reduced, further reducing the overall application cost of the protection system.

[0045] In some embodiments, Figure 4 is a schematic structural diagram of another protection device provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. On the basis of Figure 1 , with reference to Figure 4 , the protection device further includes a control module 125 and a prompt module 126; the control module 125 and the prompt module 126 are connected to the vehicle recognition module 122; the control module 125 is configured to control the prompt module 126 to send a prompt message based on the target vehicle recognized by the vehicle recognition module 122.

[0046] Specifically, when the vehicle recognition module 122 recognizes a target vehicle, by using the control module 125 to control the prompt module 126 to send a prompt message, the early warning effect on the vehicle occupants is enhanced, facilitating the vehicle occupants to stay away from the construction area in time, thereby avoiding safety accidents caused by construction.

[0047] Exemplarily, the prompt message sent by the prompt module 126 can be a voice prompt message, a light indication message, or other forms of prompt messages known to those skilled in the art, which is not limited herein.

[0048] In some embodiments, continuing to refer to Figure 4 , the prompt module 126 includes a lighting element; the lighting element is configured to flash at a preset frequency.

[0049] Exemplarily, the lighting element can be a strobe light, and its color can be yellow, blue, white, etc.; in this way, by setting one or more colors of strobe lights and making the strobe lights flash at a preset frequency, the attention of the vehicle occupants can be better attracted, achieving a good warning effect.

[0050] Exemplarily, the lighting element can flash once per second, or flash twice per second, or after flashing once per second, then flash twice in the next second, and alternate flashing according to this flashing rule. The flashing frequency of the lighting element can be set according to the prompt requirements of the prompt module 126, which is not limited herein.

[0051] In some embodiments, with reference to Figure 1, the positioning module 123 includes at least one of a GPS positioning module and a Beidou system positioning module.

[0052] Among them, both the GPS positioning module and the Beidou system positioning module are chips that support the automatic positioning function. It is not difficult to understand that the GPS positioning module uses the Global Positioning System (GPS) positioning technology to generate the real-time position information of the guardrail body 121. Correspondingly, the Beidou system positioning module uses the Beidou satellite positioning technology to generate the real-time position information of the guardrail body 121.

[0053] It should be noted that the protection device 120 provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure has the characteristic of being reusable, which is beneficial to reducing the application cost and improving the working efficiency during road safety protection. For example, when the construction area changes, the protection device 120 can be moved to the new construction area according to the construction requirements. In view of the fact that the positioning module 123 generates the real-time position information of the guardrail body 121, the construction area information generated by the centralized control device 110 will also be updated in real time, so as to facilitate the construction personnel to timely master the scope and construction accuracy of the construction area, enabling the construction personnel to construct safely.

[0054] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 , the vehicle identification module 122 includes an infrared sensor, an ultrasonic sensor or a radar sensor.

[0055] Exemplarily, the infrared sensor can be a passive infrared sensor, an active infrared sensor, an infrared thermal imager, a near-infrared sensor, etc., and the radar sensor can be a millimeter-wave radar sensor, a lidar sensor, a frequency-modulated continuous-wave radar, a pulse radar, etc., which are not limited herein.

[0056] In some embodiments, continuing to refer to Figure 4 , the protection device 120 further includes a power supply module 127; the power supply module 127 is connected to the vehicle identification module 122, the positioning module 123 and the communication module 124; the power supply module 127 is used to supply power to the vehicle identification module 122, the positioning module 123 and the communication module 124.

[0057] Exemplarily, the power supply module 127 can be a disposable battery such as an alkaline battery or a zinc-manganese battery, or a secondary battery such as a nickel-cadmium battery, a nickel-metal hydride battery, a lithium-ion battery or a lead-acid battery, or a solar panel. The specific type of the power supply module 127 can be set according to the requirements of the protection device 120, which is not limited herein.

[0058] In some embodiments, continuing to refer to Figure 4 , the power supply module 127 includes a solar panel.

[0059] Specifically, when light irradiates the solar panel, the solar panel can generate the photovoltaic effect and convert light energy into electrical energy. In this way, by using the electrical energy generated by the solar panel to power the vehicle identification module 122, the positioning module 123, and the communication module 124, energy conservation and environmental protection can be achieved, and the use safety of the protection device 120 is increased.

[0060] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 , the centralized control device 110 includes a display screen; the display screen is used to display construction area information.

[0061] Specifically, after the centralized control device 110 generates the construction area information, it can superimpose the construction area information on the surrounding map and display the construction area on the surrounding map by means of the display screen, so as to facilitate the construction personnel to analyze the situation of the construction area according to the display screen.

[0062] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 , the communication module includes a WIFI module, a Bluetooth module, or a Zigbee module.

[0063] Among them, the WIFI module, the Bluetooth module, and the Zigbee module are all wireless communication modules, which are used to realize the wireless transmission of relevant information such as construction area information. It can be understood that if the protection device 120, the centralized control device 110, and the in-vehicle terminal communicate with each other through a wireless communication module, the wireless communication technology (or wireless communication module) adopted by both parties in the communication is the same. For example, both the protection device 120 and the centralized control device 110 can be provided with a WIFI module to transmit real-time position information, construction area information, etc. through WIFI. Here, the specific type of the communication module is not limited.

[0064] The protection system provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure can send the construction area information to the in-vehicle terminal of the target vehicle by using the protection device, enabling the driver in the target vehicle to master the scope of the construction area in case of insufficient light and stay away from the construction area in time. In this way, the intelligentization and digitization of safety protection are realized, which is safer, more efficient, and more convenient, and has high practicability and feasibility in various construction scenarios such as building, municipal, road, and urban pipe network renovation construction.

[0065] It should be noted that in this text, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the term "comprising", "including" or any other variant thereof is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device comprising a series of elements not only includes those elements, but also includes other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. Without further limitation, an element defined by the statement "comprising an..." does not exclude the presence of additional identical elements in the process, method, article or device comprising the said element.

[0066] The above are only specific embodiments of the present disclosure, enabling those skilled in the art to understand or implement the present disclosure. Various modifications to these embodiments will be obvious to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein can be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present disclosure.
