Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of bus stops, in particular to a bus stop roof snow removal system and a bus stop equipped with the automatic snow removal system. Background Art

[0002] With the increasing development of urban public transportation systems, beautifully designed and intelligent bus stops have become an indispensable part of urban public transportation systems. However, existing bus stops still have some problems during use, such as the problem of snow accumulation on the roof of bus stops, which is more common in northern winter. Specifically, the impact is mainly reflected in the following aspects:

[0003] (1) Affecting the overall structural performance of the platform. The accumulation of snow on the roof will increase the weight of the roof. When the snow accumulation reaches a certain level, it may exert pressure on the roof structure, causing deformation or collapse of the roof structure, and also posing a threat to the safety of passengers.

[0004] (2) After the snow on the roof melts, if the drainage system is not properly designed or the drainage is not smooth, the melted water will drip from the roof, causing inconvenience to passers-by. In addition, the melted water may refreeze at low temperatures to form icicles. Once these icicles fall off, they will pose a threat to pedestrians or vehicles below.

[0005] (3) Long-term snow accumulation and snow melting may cause corrosion and damage to platform facilities, such as rusting of metal parts and rotting of wooden parts, thereby shortening the service life of the platform.

[0006] (4) In order to ensure the normal operation of the platform and the safety of passengers, snow needs to be cleared regularly, which will increase the investment of manpower and material resources and increase maintenance costs.

[0007] Currently, common methods of snow removal from bus stop roofs include manual snow removal and mechanical snow removal.

[0008] Among them, mechanical snow removal generally achieves the goal of physical snow removal by using a motor to pull a special snow shovel, which is highly efficient, but the equipment cost and maintenance cost are also relatively high. Moreover, due to the structure and load-bearing capacity of the roof, not all equipment is suitable for use on the roof, which may limit the selection of snow removal equipment and affect the snow removal effect. In addition, for some special types of snow (such as ice, snow blocks, etc.), mechanical snow removal equipment may be difficult to completely remove, or cause the snow removal equipment to be blocked, affecting the snow removal effect, and may also generate some noise, affecting the daily life of surrounding residents.

[0009] Manual snow removal requires a large amount of manpower and has a slow snow removal speed. At the same time, manual snow removal operations need to be carried out on the platform, which will cause certain interference to passengers taking the train, affect the normal passage of public transportation, and during the snow removal process, construction workers need to face harsh working environments such as cold and slippery conditions, posing certain safety hazards. Especially for high-altitude operations such as the roof, the safety risks for construction workers are even higher. Summary of the Invention

[0010] The main technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a bus platform roof snow removal system that can monitor the snow accumulation status on the roof in real time, heat and melt the snow on the platform roof, which is beneficial to increasing the service life of the platform, reducing the difficulty of snow removal, and improving the snow removal efficiency. At the same time, a bus platform equipped with this bus platform roof snow removal system is provided.

[0011] To solve the above technical problems, the basic concept of the technical solution adopted by the present invention is:

[0012] A bus platform roof snow removal system includes:

[0013] A snow accumulation status monitoring module for monitoring the snow accumulation status on the roof;

[0014] A heating and snow melting system for heating and raising the temperature of the roof to melt the snow;

[0015] A control module is data-connected to the snow accumulation status monitoring module and the heating and snow melting system, and controls the working status of the heating and snow melting system according to the collected snow accumulation status information;

[0016] A collection and drainage device for collecting the melted snow water and discharging it to the ground.

[0017] Further, the snow accumulation status monitoring module includes an environmental meteorological monitoring module and / or a roof snow thickness monitoring device and / or a roof snow weight monitoring device.

[0018] Further, the environmental meteorological monitoring module uses a climate detector for monitoring one or more meteorological data such as the temperature, humidity, wind direction, wind speed, rain and snow conditions of the environment.

[0019] Further, the roof snow thickness monitoring device uses a laser snow depth detector.

[0020] Further, the roof snow weight monitoring device uses a weight sensor or a pressure sensor.

[0021] Further, the heating and snow melting system includes a circulating heating pipeline and a heating element. The circulating heating pipeline is laid flat above the shed roof. A heating medium is filled in the circulating heating pipeline. A circulating pump is connected in series on the circulating heating pipeline to drive the circulation of the heating medium. The heating element is installed on the circulating heating pipeline to heat the heating medium.

[0022] Further, the heating and snow melting system includes a temperature sensor and / or a flow rate sensor. The temperature sensor is used to detect the temperature of the heated heating medium, and the flow rate sensor is used to detect the flow rate of the heating medium. The temperature sensor and the flow rate sensor are connected to a control module, and the control module controls the heating power of the heating element and / or the working power of the circulating pump.

[0023] Further, the collection and drainage device includes a drainage trough disposed at least on one side of the shed roof. The shed roof slopes towards the drainage trough. Drainage holes are provided at both ends of the drainage trough. A drain pipe is installed below the drainage holes, and the other end of the drain pipe is connected to the ground.

[0024] Further, the control module includes a controller and an Internet of Things cloud platform. The controller is integrally installed on the platform. The controller is remotely communicatively connected to the Internet of Things cloud platform.

[0025] To solve the above technical problems, the basic concept of another technical solution adopted by the present utility model is:

[0026] A bus platform is installed with the above-mentioned snow removal system for the bus platform shed roof.

[0027] In summary, compared with the prior art, a snow removal system for a bus platform shed roof and a bus platform provided by the present utility model have the following advantages:

[0028] (1) The present utility model monitors the snow accumulation state on the shed roof in real time through the snow accumulation state monitoring module. The control module automatically controls the working state of the heating and snow melting system according to the collected snow accumulation state information, realizing automatic heating and snow removal of the snow on the shed roof. This not only helps to increase the service life of the platform, but also does not require manual participation in the entire snow removal process, greatly improving the snow removal efficiency, reducing the snow removal difficulty, and also reducing the safety risk brought by manual snow removal and the maintenance cost of maintenance personnel.

[0029] (2) By utilizing the circulating flow of the heating medium, the present utility model can rapidly increase the temperature of the shed roof, thereby accelerating the melting of the snow. Compared with traditional methods, such as shoveling snow or using chemical snow melting agents, or using mechanical snow removal methods, the liquid heating cycle can melt the snow into water faster, thus greatly improving the snow removal efficiency.

[0030] (3) The present utility model sets up a variety of monitoring methods for the snow accumulation state, and can accurately monitor the snow accumulation state on the shed roof under any circumstances, thereby controlling the working state of the heating and snow melting system to ensure the timely and efficient completion of the snow removal operation.

[0031] (4) The present utility model utilizes the collection and drainage device arranged on the shed roof, which can smoothly drain the melted snow water to the ground. This can not only prevent the shed roof from being soaked in snow water for a long time, affecting the service life of the shed roof, but also effectively prevent the re-formation of ice ridges after the snow accumulates and melts, ensuring the safe and environmental protection of the snow water discharge.

[0032] (5) The present utility model has a wide range of applications. Whether it is a shed roof made of metal, plastic or other materials, the liquid heating and circulating snow removal technology can be effectively applied.

[0045] Embodiment 1:

[0046] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, the present utility model provides a snow removal system for a bus stop shed roof, which includes a snow accumulation state monitoring module 1, a heating and snow melting system 2, a control module 3, and a collection and drainage device 4.

[0047] Among them, the snow accumulation state monitoring module 1 is used to monitor the snow accumulation state of the shed roof 5. The heating and snow melting system 2 is used to heat and raise the temperature of the shed roof 5 to melt the snow. The control module 3 is connected to the snow accumulation state monitoring module 1 and the heating and snow melting system 2, and is used to automatically control the working state of the heating and snow melting system 2 according to the collected snow accumulation state information of the shed roof, so as to melt the snow on the shed roof 5. The collection and drainage device 4 is used to collect the melted snow water and discharge it to the ground.

[0048] In this embodiment, preferably, the snow accumulation state monitoring module 1 includes an environmental meteorological monitoring module 11 and / or a shed roof snow thickness monitoring device 12 and / or a shed roof snow weight monitoring device 13. In order to ensure the accuracy and timeliness of detection, it is more preferable to adopt the above three monitoring methods at the same time.

[0049] In this embodiment, the environmental meteorological monitoring module 11 preferably adopts a climate detector 111, which is fixedly installed on the shed roof 5 through structures such as a fixing rack, and is used to monitor one or more meteorological data of the environmental temperature, humidity, wind direction, wind speed, rain and snow conditions, so as to predict the snow condition, including the grade of the snow condition, the starting time of snowfall, the time when the snow stops, etc. For the environmental meteorological monitoring module 11, in this embodiment, another implementation manner is also provided at the same time. The environmental meteorological monitoring module 11 is a data receiving server, which directly receives the meteorological data released by the local public service platform.

[0050] The shed roof snow depth monitoring device 12 preferably adopts a laser snow depth detector 121 to directly obtain the snow depth data on the shed roof 5. The laser snow depth detector 121 is also fixedly installed on the shed roof 5 through structures such as a fixing rack. In this embodiment, on the premise of ensuring the effective detection of the shed roof snow depth, the cost of the system is reduced. Further preferably, a laser snow depth detector 121 is installed above the shed roof 5. Even more preferably, the laser snow depth detector 121 and the climate detector 111 are installed on the same fixing rack to simplify the installation structure and reduce the cost.

[0051] The shed roof snow weight monitoring device 13 preferably adopts a weight sensor 131, and a pressure sensor can also be used. In this embodiment, further preferably, at least one weight sensor 131 is installed at each of the four corners of the shed roof 5 to ensure the accuracy of detection. The laser snow depth detector 121 can detect the thickness of the snow on the shed roof 5, but the installation quantity of the laser snow depth detector 121 is limited, so that the positions and ranges that can be measured are limited. Therefore, by additionally arranging a plurality of weight sensors 131 at different positions on the shed roof 5 to assist in measuring the snow depth on the shed roof 5, and using both measurement methods at the same time, a dual insurance effect can be achieved, and the accuracy of the measurement result can be ensured.

[0052] In this embodiment, preferably, the heating and snow melting system 2 includes a circulating heating pipeline 21 and a heating element 22. The circulating heating pipeline 21 is laid flat above the shed roof 5, and a heating medium is filled in the circulating heating pipeline 21. The heating medium preferably adopts antifreeze. A circulating pump 23 is connected in series on the circulating heating pipeline 21 to drive the heating medium to circulate. The heating element 22 is installed on the circulating heating pipeline 21 to heat the heating medium in the circulating heating pipeline 21, so that the heating medium with a higher temperature can circulate in the area of the entire shed roof 5, and effectively and quickly heat the snow on the shed roof 5. Among them, the heating element 22 can adopt an electric heating tape, etc., and is wound around a part of the circulating heating pipeline 21.

[0053] Such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, in order to improve the snow melting efficiency and effect, more preferably, the circulating heating pipeline 21 is laid flat on the shed roof 5 in a serpentine structure to increase the contact area with the snow above the shed roof 5. Of course, the circulating heating pipeline 21 can also adopt the installation method of parallel tubes, with multiple parallel pipelines laid flat above the shed roof 5, and a circulating pump 23 and a heating element 22 are installed on the collecting pipe.

[0054] In this embodiment, more preferably, the heating and snow melting system 2 further includes a temperature sensor and a flow rate sensor (not shown in the figure). The temperature sensor is arranged at the outlet end of the heating element 22 to detect the temperature of the heated heating medium. The flow rate sensor is installed at the outlet end of the circulating pump 23 to detect the flow rate of the heating medium in the circulating heating pipeline 21. The temperature sensor and the flow rate sensor are connected to the control module 3. The control module 3 controls the heating power of the heating element 22 and the working power of the circulating pump 23 according to the temperature of the heating medium and the flow rate of the heating medium in the circulating heating pipeline 21, and then controls the heating rate of the shed roof 5. In this way, the snow melting speed can be intelligently controlled according to the thickness of the snow cover, the amount of snowfall, etc., avoiding energy consumption, ensuring the melting effect and efficiency, and preventing the temperature of the shed roof 5 from being too high and causing damage to the shed roof 5.

[0055] In this embodiment, preferably, the snow collection and drainage device 4 includes at least a drainage trough arranged on one side of the shed roof 5. The shed roof 5 is inclined towards the drainage trough side, which is beneficial for the melted snow water to flow into the drainage trough on one side. Drainage holes are arranged at both ends of the drainage trough, and a drainage pipe 41 is installed below the drainage holes. The other end of the drainage pipe 41 is connected to the ground. Similarly, for the convenience of drainage, the middle position of the drainage trough is the highest and slopes downward towards the drainage holes at both ends.

[0056] The melted snow water first enters the drainage trough, then flows out through the drainage holes at both ends and enters the drainage pipe 41 below, and finally is discharged to the ground. This can prevent the formation of ice ridges by the snowmelt water, and the discharge is safe and environmentally friendly. In order not to affect the overall appearance of the platform, the drainage pipe 41 is arranged to extend downward closely along the column of the platform. The bottom of the shed roof adopts a special snowmelt water collection structure.

[0057] Such as Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the control module 3 includes a controller 31 and an Internet of Things cloud platform 32. Among them, the controller 31 is integrally installed on the platform. The controller 31 is remotely communicatively connected to the Internet of Things cloud platform 32. Management personnel remotely obtain the snow accumulation status information transmitted by each device through the Internet of Things cloud platform 32, perform real-time analysis and judgment on the collected data in the Internet of Things cloud platform 32, and transmit the judgment result command to the controller 31 of the corresponding platform to control the working state of the heating and snow melting system 2. It is convenient for the bus operation control center to uniformly monitor and control the snow accumulation and snow removal conditions of each platform, realizing intelligent control.

[0058] In this embodiment, the control module 3 further includes an alarm module 33. The Internet of Things cloud platform 32 is communicatively connected to the alarm module 33. When the environmental meteorological monitoring module 11 monitors that the snow condition reaches the warning level or the roof snow thickness monitoring device 12 and the roof snow weight monitoring device 13 monitor that the snow thickness on the roof reaches the dangerous value, the Internet of Things cloud platform 32 will immediately send a warning message to the management personnel to remind them to start the snow removal procedure.

[0059] After receiving the warning message, the management personnel can remotely control the heating and snow melting system 2 to start through the Internet of Things cloud platform 32. The heating element 22 quickly heats the antifreeze, and the antifreeze is circulated through the circulation pump 23 in the circulation heating pipeline 21 on the platform roof 5 to heat the roof 5. As the heat is transferred, the snow begins to melt and is discharged through the drainage device 4 on the platform roof 5. During the heating process, the controller 31 also controls the heating power of the heating element 22 and the working power of the circulation pump 23 according to the monitored temperature of the heating medium and the flow rate of the heating medium in the circulation heating pipeline 21, thereby controlling the heating rate of the roof 5.

[0060] Through the control of the control module 3, the snow removal operation on the roof 5 is realized for intelligent management, which improves the snow removal efficiency and the quality of the snow removal operation. It also eliminates the need for manual snow removal, reduces the difficulty of snow removal, and avoids the possibility of danger during manual snow removal.

[0061] The bus platform roof snow removal system provided by the present utility model has the following advantages:

[0062] 1. The system real-time monitors the snow accumulation status on the roof through the snow accumulation status monitoring module. The control module automatically controls the working state of the heating and snow melting system according to the collected snow accumulation status information, realizing automatic heating and snow removal of the snow on the roof. This not only helps to increase the service life of the platform, but also requires no manual participation in the entire snow removal process, greatly improving the snow removal efficiency, reducing the difficulty of snow removal, and also reducing the safety risks brought by manual snow removal and the maintenance costs of maintenance personnel.

[0063] 2. The system can rapidly increase the temperature of the shed roof by utilizing the circulating flow of the heating medium, thereby accelerating the melting of snow. Compared with traditional methods such as snow shoveling, chemical snow removers, or mechanical snow removal methods, the liquid heating cycle can melt snow into water faster, thus greatly improving the snow removal efficiency.

[0064] 3. The system has set up a variety of monitoring methods for the snow accumulation state. Under any circumstances, it can accurately monitor the snow accumulation state on the shed roof, and then control the working state of the heating and snow melting system to ensure the timely and efficient completion of the snow removal operation.

[0065] 4. The system uses the collection and drainage device set on the shed roof to enable the melted snow water to be smoothly drained to the ground. This can not only prevent the shed roof from being soaked in snow water for a long time, affecting the service life of the shed roof, but also effectively prevent the re-formation of ice ridges after the snow melts, ensuring the safety and environmental protection of the snow water discharge.

[0066] 5. The system has a wide range of applications. Whether it is the shed roof made of metal, plastic or other materials, the liquid heating cycle snow removal technology can be effectively applied.
