Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of intelligent connected vehicles, and specifically relates to a warning device for intelligent connected vehicles. Background Art

[0002] During the process of driving a vehicle, the most feared thing is to encounter a blind spot. The so-called blind spot of a vehicle refers to the area that cannot be directly observed by the driver's line of sight being blocked by the vehicle body when the driver is in the normal driving seat position, usually in the front or rear of the vehicle body. Especially when reversing, some vehicles are not equipped with a reversing radar and camera, and accidents often occur due to blind spots.

[0003] According to the disclosed patent 202111347138.5, a warning device for intelligent connected vehicles, it includes an outer shell, a sliding box and a mounting post. The outer shell is in the shape of a box with one end open. Four corner positions on the back surface of the outer shell are fixedly equipped with abutting posts, and abutting discs are fixedly installed at the ends of the four groups of abutting posts. In the present invention, when the mounting post is pressed and moves, the sliding box will push the guide rod A in the reverse direction and drive the piston A to slide deep into the guide hole against the elastic force of the spring B. The air pressure inside the guide hole increases, and pushes the piston B and the guide rod B to move upward along the inner wall surface of the L-shaped hole. Furthermore, the support plate can be pushed out from the port of the lifting slot, and the rubber gasket can be attached to the vehicle surface. If a collision continues to occur, the sharp object will squeeze on the surface of the support plate. At this time, the support plate and the rubber gasket will be stressed, and through the elastic buffering effect formed by the cooperation of the rubber gasket and the buffer groove, the vehicle surface can be protected from being damaged by sharp objects. During the implementation of the present utility model, the inventor found that at least the following problems in the prior art have not been solved. Although through the cooperation between the pressure guiding component and the lifting component, the problem that the existing blind spot anti-collision warning device for vehicles cannot perform corresponding protection actions during operation, so that sharp objects will still scratch the vehicle surface can be effectively solved, but during use, the traditional warning device for intelligent connected vehicles can only give a warning after being pressed. And after giving a warning after being pressed, the warning device has already contacted the object, which is likely to cause other positions of the object to collide and rub against the vehicle body surface. Moreover, the volume of the warning device is relatively large, the installation position is limited, and the warning effect on different positions of the vehicle body surface is poor. Therefore, a new technical solution needs to be designed to solve this problem. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the present utility model is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art, meet the actual needs, and provide a warning device for intelligent connected vehicles, so as to solve the technical problems of the current traditional warning device for intelligent connected vehicles. After the warning device is pressed, it can issue a warning. However, after the warning device issues a warning after being pressed, the warning device has already come into contact with the object, which is likely to cause collision and scratching between other positions of the object and the vehicle body surface. Moreover, the warning device is relatively large in size, there are restrictions on the installation position, and the warning effect on different positions of the vehicle body surface is poor.

[0005] In order to achieve the purpose of the present utility model, the technical solution adopted by the present utility model is: design a warning device for intelligent connected vehicles, including a device housing, and further including:

[0006] A plurality of mounting holes are opened at the front end of the device housing;

[0007] A warning mechanism is installed in the plurality of mounting holes. The warning mechanism includes a plurality of warning cylinders. The plurality of warning cylinders are respectively inserted into the plurality of mounting holes. First cameras are installed on both sides of the front end of each warning cylinder, and a first detection radar is installed on the top of the front end of each warning cylinder;

[0008] An electric telescopic cylinder is installed at the rear end inside the warning cylinder, and a rubber disk is arranged at the front end of the electric telescopic cylinder.

[0009] Preferably, first mounting plates are fixed on both sides of the warning cylinder. A fixing bolt passes through the inside of the first mounting plate, and the fixing bolt is in threaded connection with the screw hole at the front end of the device housing.

[0010] Preferably, a plurality of grooves are opened at the front end of the device housing, and the plurality of grooves are located between the plurality of mounting holes. A second detection radar is installed inside the grooves.

[0011] Preferably, a fixing block is fixed at the front end of the top of the device housing, and second cameras are installed on both sides of the front end of the fixing block.

[0012] Preferably, a circular groove is opened on one side of the electric telescopic cylinder. A buffer cylinder is fixed inside the circular groove. A connecting cylinder extends into one side of the buffer cylinder. A connecting plate body is fixed at one end of the connecting cylinder located inside the buffer cylinder, and a spring is fixed at one end of the connecting plate body.

[0013] Preferably, the connecting cylinder is fixed with a rubber disk at the end far away from the buffer cylinder. An installation groove is opened on one side of the rubber disk. One ends of fixing rods are fixed at both the upper and lower ends inside the installation groove. The other ends of the fixing rods are fixed with a micro air pump. One end of the micro air pump is communicated with an air pipe, and the end of the air pipe far away from the micro air pump is communicated with an airbag pad.

[0014] Preferably, second mounting plates are fixed to both sides of the device housing, and holes are formed in the surfaces of the second mounting plates.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

[0016] 1. By combining the device housing, the warning cylinder body, and the electric telescopic cylinder, the present utility model can install multiple warning cylinder bodies inside the device housing, and then install the device housing on the surface of the vehicle body. Additionally, multiple warning cylinder bodies can be separately removed and installed at different positions on the surface of the vehicle body. The miniaturized warning cylinder bodies can be more conveniently installed on the surface of the blind spots of the vehicle body. Since cameras are separately provided on the surfaces of the warning cylinder bodies, after being installed at different positions on the surface of the vehicle body, different blind spots of the vehicle body can be directly observed. Moreover, electric telescopic cylinders are provided inside the warning cylinder bodies. After the detection radar senses that an object is approaching, the electric telescopic cylinder will actively drive the rubber disc to move out, preventing the object from approaching the surface of the vehicle body. This solves the technical problems of traditional warning devices for intelligent networked vehicles, which can only give warnings after being pressed, and after giving a warning after being pressed, the warning device has already come into contact with the object, easily causing collisions and scratches between other positions of the object and the surface of the vehicle body. Furthermore, the volume of the warning device is relatively large, there are limitations in the installation positions, and the warning effect on different positions of the vehicle body surface is poor.

[0017] 2. By combining the buffer cylinder body, the micro air pump, and the airbag pad, the present utility model can not only buffer the impact force through the spring inside the buffer cylinder body when the rubber disc is impacted, but also, after the micro air pump inflates the airbag pad, when the object collides with the object, the airbag pad can be used to further buffer the impact force of the object, enhancing the buffering effect.

[0022] The present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments:

[0023] Embodiment 1: An early warning device for an intelligent connected vehicle, see Figures 1 to 3 , including a device housing 1, further including: a plurality of mounting holes 2, opened at the front end of the device housing 1; an early warning mechanism, installed in the plurality of mounting holes 2, the early warning mechanism includes a plurality of warning cylinders 201, the plurality of warning cylinders 201 are respectively inserted into the plurality of mounting holes 2, both sides of the front end of the warning cylinder 201 are installed with first cameras 204, and the top of the front end of the warning cylinder 201 is installed with a first detection radar 217; an electric telescopic cylinder 205 is installed at the rear end inside the warning cylinder 201, and a rubber disc 206 is arranged at the front end of the electric telescopic cylinder 205. The plurality of warning cylinders 201 can be respectively passed through the plurality of mounting holes 2 and installed inside the device housing 1, and then the device housing 1 is installed on the vehicle body surface. The plurality of warning cylinders 201 can also be separately removed, and the plurality of warning cylinders 201 are respectively installed at different positions on the vehicle body surface by using the first mounting plate 202 and the fixed bolts 203. The miniaturized warning cylinders 201 are more conveniently installed on the surface of the vehicle body blind area. Since the first cameras 204 are separately arranged on the surface of the warning cylinder 201, after being installed at different positions on the vehicle body surface, the first cameras 204 can directly observe different blind areas of the vehicle body. Moreover, an electric telescopic cylinder 205 is arranged inside the warning cylinder 201. After the detection radar senses that an object is approaching, the detection radar will send a signal to the vehicle computer, and the vehicle computer will turn on the electric telescopic cylinder 205 to actively drive the rubber disc 206 to move out, avoiding the object approaching the vehicle body surface, and solving the technical problems of the traditional early warning device for an intelligent connected vehicle that can only give an early warning after the early warning device is pressed, and after giving an early warning after the early warning device is pressed, the early warning device has already contacted the object, which is likely to cause collision and rubbing of other positions of the object with the vehicle body surface, and moreover, the volume of the early warning device is large, the installation position is limited, and the early warning effect on different positions of the vehicle body surface is poor.

[0024] Specifically, see Figure 1, on both sides of the warning cylinder body 201, there are first mounting plates 202 fixed. A fixing bolt 203 passes through the inside of the first mounting plate 202, and the fixing bolt 203 is threadedly connected to the screw hole at the front end of the device housing 1.

[0025] Furthermore, referring to Figure 1 , a plurality of grooves 103 are provided at the front end of the device housing 1, and the plurality of grooves 103 are located between the plurality of mounting holes 2. A second detection radar 104 is installed inside the groove 103. The second detection radar 104 can be used in cooperation with the first detection radar 217 to perform radar detection from different positions.

[0026] It should be noted that, referring to Figure 1 , a fixing block 101 is fixed at the front end of the top of the device housing 1. Second cameras 102 are installed on both sides of the front end of the fixing block 101. Since the second cameras 102 are provided on the surface of the fixing block 101, when the device housing 1 is installed on the vehicle body surface, pictures can be taken through the second cameras 102.

[0027] It should be noted that, referring to Figure 3 , a circular groove 207 is provided on one side of the electric telescopic cylinder 205. A buffer cylinder body 208 is fixed inside the circular groove 207. One side of the buffer cylinder body 208 extends into a connecting cylinder body 211. A connecting plate body 210 is fixed at the end of the connecting cylinder body 211 located inside the buffer cylinder body 208. One end of the connecting plate body 210 is fixed with a spring 209. When the rubber disk 206 is impacted, it will drive the connecting cylinder body 211 to move into the buffer cylinder body 208, and the connecting cylinder body 211 will squeeze the spring 209 inside the buffer cylinder body 208, thereby buffering the impact force through the spring 209.

[0028] It is worth introducing that, referring to Figure 3 , a rubber disk 206 is fixed at the end of the connecting cylinder body 211 away from the buffer cylinder body 208. An installation groove 212 is provided on one side of the rubber disk 206. One ends of fixing rods 213 are fixed at both the upper and lower ends inside the installation groove 212. The other ends of the fixing rods 213 are fixed with a micro air pump 214. One end of the micro air pump 214 is communicated with an air pipe 215. The end of the air pipe 215 away from the micro air pump 214 is communicated with an airbag pad 216. When the vehicle computer turns on the electric telescopic cylinder 205, the micro air pump 214 will also be turned on. After the micro air pump 214 inflates the airbag pad 216, when an object collides with an object, the airbag pad 216 can be used to further buffer the impact force of the object, improving the buffering effect.

[0029] It should be emphasized that, referring to Figure 1 , second mounting plates 105 are fixed on both sides of the device housing 1, and hole bodies 106 are provided on the surfaces of the second mounting plates 105.

[0030] When using a warning device for an intelligent connected vehicle, multiple warning cylinders 201 can be respectively passed through multiple mounting holes 2 and installed inside the device housing 1, and then the device housing 1 can be installed on the vehicle body surface. Alternatively, the multiple warning cylinders 201 can be separately removed and installed at different positions on the vehicle body surface by using the first mounting plate 202 and fixing bolts 203. The miniaturized warning cylinders 201 can be more conveniently installed on the surface of the vehicle body blind area. Since a first camera 204 is separately provided on the surface of the warning cylinder 201, after being installed at different positions on the vehicle body surface, the first camera 204 can directly observe different blind areas of the vehicle body. Moreover, an electric telescopic cylinder 205 is provided inside the warning cylinder 201. After the detection radar senses that an object is approaching, the detection radar will send a signal to the vehicle computer, and the vehicle computer will open the electric telescopic cylinder 205 to actively drive the rubber disc 206 to move out, avoiding the object approaching the vehicle body surface. When the rubber disc 206 is impacted, it will drive the connecting cylinder 211 to move into the buffer cylinder 208, and the connecting cylinder 211 will squeeze the spring 209 inside the buffer cylinder 208, thereby buffering the impact force through the spring 209. When the vehicle computer opens the electric telescopic cylinder 205, it will also open the micro air pump 214. After the micro air pump 214 inflates the airbag pad 216, when the object collides with an object, the airbag pad 216 can be used to further buffer the impact force of the object, improving the buffering effect.
