[0026] Embodiment 1

[0027] As Figures 1-4 shown, the present utility model provides a remote control console for the automatic driving of an air bridge, which includes a control main body 1 and a management cockpit 2. A display component and a first control component are provided on the upper surface of the control main body 1. The display component includes a first display 3 and a second display 4. The first display 3 is composed of a combination of one or more display screens. The first display 3 is fixedly installed through the first display bracket 5 at its bottom, and the first display bracket 5 is fixedly arranged on the top of the control main body 1.

[0028] The first display 3 is electrically connected to the monitoring cameras at various parts of the boarding bridge. Through the first display 3, the real-time position and status of the boarding bridge can be observed. The middle display screen on the first display 3 faces the control cockpit 2 and is arranged in parallel with the control body 1. The two side display screens on the first display 3 are symmetrically inclined. This makes the overall layout of the first display 3 more reasonable and convenient for the controller to better observe the monitoring images in the first display 3.

[0029] The first control component includes a control console 7 and a joystick 15. A number of control buttons are provided on the control console 7. The controller can modify and correct some data during the automatic driving process of the boarding bridge through the control buttons, ensuring the efficient and stable operation of the boarding bridge. At the same time, the controller can manually intervene in the movement path of the boarding bridge through the joystick 15, thereby coping with various working conditions.

[0030] The second display 4 is defined on the side of the control body 1 through a second display bracket 6. The fixed height of the second display 4 is lower than that of the first display 3. A touch screen is provided in the second display 4. The controller can change the relevant data and information of the automatic driving of the boarding bridge according to the actual working conditions. At the same time, a first telescopic cylinder 19 is fixedly provided at the rear of the second display 4. The fixed end of the first telescopic cylinder 19 is fixedly arranged inside the control body 1. By controlling the first telescopic cylinder 19, the second display 4 can be moved in the front-rear direction, that is, it can move in the direction close to the seat 11 and away from the seat 11.

[0031] The control cockpit 2 is placed on one side of the control body 1. A second control component is provided on the control cockpit 2. A seat 11 is embedded in the control cockpit 2. By adding the seat 11, the working environment of the controller can be effectively improved. At the same time, the seat 11 can be changed in the height direction to improve the comfort of the staff.

[0032] The seat 11 is fixedly installed on a moving base 21. A second telescopic cylinder 20 is fixedly provided on one side of the moving base 21. The fixed end of the second telescopic cylinder 20 is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the control body 1. Adjusting slide rails 14 are provided at the bottom of the control cockpit 2. The adjusting slide rails 14 are arranged on both sides of the moving base 21. By means of the adjusting slide rails 14, the distance between the control cockpit 2 and the control body 1 can be changed, facilitating the operation of controllers of different body types. The specific structures of the seat 11 and the adjusting slide rails 14 are well known to those skilled in the relevant art.

[0033] The second control component includes an emergency stop button 16, a confirmation button 17 and common control buttons 18. The common control buttons 18, the emergency stop button 16 and the confirmation button 17 are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the seat 11. Thus, the controller can operate the common control buttons 18, the emergency stop button 16 and the confirmation button 17 more conveniently on the seat 11.

[0034] The control cockpit 2 is also provided with a fatigue monitoring component and an intercom component. The fatigue monitoring component is arranged in front of the control cockpit 2 through a monitoring rod 10. The fatigue monitoring component includes a monitoring camera, and the monitoring rod 10 is an angle-adjustable monitoring rod 10. The monitoring camera can be adjusted to a suitable angle through the angle-adjustable monitoring rod 10, which is convenient for face recognition of the controller.

[0035] The control main body 1 is fixedly installed on the ground through a fixed bracket 8 at its bottom. An equipment cavity 9 is provided inside the bottom of the control main body 1 and on the inner side of the fixed bracket 8, and a speaker is provided on the side wall of the equipment cavity 9. An image processing module is provided inside the control main body 1. The image processing module is electrically connected to the monitoring camera. The monitoring camera monitors the face state of the controller in real time and transmits the image information to the image processing module. If the image processing module monitors that the controller is in a fatigue state, the speaker is controlled to sound an alarm to remind the controller to improve attention.

[0036] The intercom component is arranged on one side of the control cockpit 2. The intercom component includes a movable connecting rod 12, and a voice recognition module 13 is arranged at the end of the movable connecting rod 12. The voice recognition module 13 can be better positioned close to the mouth of the controller through the movable connecting rod 12, so that clearer voice commands can be conveyed. At the same time, the speaker can also emit the voice commands received by the control main body 1, so that the voice intercom function can be realized.

[0037] At the same time, the specific positions of the related components introduced in this embodiment are only used to illustrate this embodiment. The related positions of the various components in the automatic boarding bridge remote control console are not unique. Under the condition of ensuring its normal use, the related positions of the various components in the automatic boarding bridge remote control console can be adaptively adjusted according to usage habits and usage environments. The forward and backward movement of the second display and the seat realized in this embodiment is not limited to being realized by a telescopic cylinder, and can also be realized by a chain or other forms.

[0038] It should be noted that the content not elaborated in detail in the present invention is prior art and is well known to those skilled in the art.

[0039] Therefore, by adopting the above-mentioned automatic boarding bridge remote control console, the present invention can effectively improve the working comfort of the controller, improve the attention of the controller, and ensure the safe operation of the boarding bridge.

[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention rather than to limit them. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions of the present invention or make equivalent replacements, and these modifications or equivalent replacements cannot make the modified technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention.
