[0064] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0065] See also Figures 1 to 13 As shown, according to an embodiment of the present application, an environment acquisition device is provided, which is used to be set on the outside of a vehicle body. The environment acquisition device includes a shell 1, a data processing unit 2 and a collection unit 3. An installation position is provided on the shell 1, and the collection unit 3 is connected to the installation position. The data processing unit 2 is connected to the collection unit 3. An accommodating cavity is provided in the shell 1, and the data processing unit 2 is provided in the accommodating cavity.

[0066] By setting up the acquisition unit 3, it is possible to collect environmental information and obtain accurate data on the vehicle's driving environment, providing support and protection for the vehicle's automatic driving. By setting up the data processing unit 2, the environmental acquisition device has the ability to process data independently, and can process the data collected by the acquisition unit 3 without relying on the vehicle control system. During disassembly and assembly, the disassembly and assembly steps of the environmental acquisition device and the vehicle control system are eliminated, simplifying the disassembly and assembly operations, saving time and effort. Moreover, when installing the environmental acquisition device, there is no need to consider compatibility issues with the vehicle control system, and it can be applied to more vehicles, thereby increasing the scope of application of the device. By setting up the shell 1, a stable installation position is provided for the data processing unit 2 and the acquisition unit 3, and the accommodating cavity provides good protection for the data processing unit 2, preventing the data processing unit 2 from being damaged by external impact.

[0067] Among them, the environment collection equipment is set on the outside of the vehicle body to collect environmental data outside the vehicle, such as road information, obstacle information, sign information, etc.

[0068] As a method of use, environmental collection equipment can be installed on manned vehicles to collect environmental information about the environment in which unmanned vehicles are used, thereby establishing an information database and providing data support for the unmanned vehicle's operation. In other words, the environmental collection equipment, as a device that integrates multiple sensors and has independent computing capabilities, can be installed on passenger vehicles such as SUVs or pickup trucks to collect data stably and conveniently.

[0069] As another usage method, environmental collection equipment can be installed on unmanned vehicles to collect environmental information in real time, such as road information, sign information, obstacle information, etc., to guide the driving of the unmanned vehicle.

[0070] A deformable mounting member 119 is provided on the housing 1 , and the housing 1 is connected to the outer wall of the vehicle via the deformable mounting member 119 .

[0071] Specifically, the deformable mounting member 119 can be a mounting bracket with bolt holes, which can be secured to the vehicle roof, for example, to a rooftop luggage rack, using bolts or other connecting components. The mounting bracket can be made of metal, allowing for slight deformation, facilitating installation, and providing a certain degree of vibration reduction.

[0072] More specifically, Figure 2 As shown, there may be multiple, for example four, deformable mounting members 119, which are respectively distributed at the four corners of the bottom surface of the housing 1. The deformable mounting members 119 are configured to match commonly used standard passenger car luggage racks for easy installation on different vehicle models.

[0073] At least part of the installation positions are set on the outer wall of the housing 1 for installation of electrical components that need to be exposed to the outside, such as the antenna 33 and the radar 32.

[0074] The data processing unit 2 has at least autonomous data computing and data transmission capabilities. Specifically, the data processing unit 2 includes a computing module and a communication module. The computing module is used for data processing, and the communication module is used for data transmission.

[0075] The housing 1 has a hollow structure, so that a receiving cavity is formed inside the housing 1 .

[0076] It should be noted that the data processing unit 2 possessing autonomous data computing and data transmission capabilities is prior art. In this embodiment, the prior art data processing unit 2, which possesses autonomous data computing and data transmission capabilities, can be installed within the housing 1, thereby providing the environment collection device with autonomous data computing and data transmission capabilities. In other words, the existing data processing unit 2 is integrated into the environment collection device, providing a stable and secure installation location for the data processing unit 2.

[0077] Specifically, the data processing unit 2 may also be referred to as a central controller. The data processing unit 2 may be a Trimble data processing device, an Applanix POSPac, a Vector VX1161 and related recorders, a Zhonghaida data processing device, or an FPGA-based data processing device. This embodiment does not limit the specific type and model of the data processing unit 2.

[0078] The environment acquisition device includes a first mounting bracket 101, which is disposed within the housing chamber and is used to mount the data processing unit 2. The first mounting bracket 101 provides more locations for securing electrical components, accommodating more electrical components and making full use of the space.

[0079] The first mounting frame 101 includes at least one mounting layer, on which fixing positions are provided. The data processing unit 2 includes a first electrical component 21 and a second electrical component 22. The first electrical component 21 is connected to the fixing positions and is mounted on the second electrical component 22 via the first mounting frame 101. By providing only one mounting layer on the mounting frame, the first electrical component 21 and the second electrical component 22 can be stacked and installed, reusing space and accommodating more electrical components.

[0080] The data processing unit 2 may further include a third electrical component, a fourth electrical component, and more electrical components. The first mounting frame 101 may further include multiple mounting layers, and the electrical components may be stacked through the mounting layers of the first mounting frame 101 .

[0081] Specifically, all electrical components may be stacked together through various installation layers, or the electrical components may be divided into multiple groups, with the electrical components in each group stacked, and electrical components in different groups not stacked.

[0082] The mounting layer in the first mounting frame 101 can be rectangular and can include four legs located at the four corners of the mounting layer. The four legs can be detachably connected to the bottom surface of the accommodating cavity to securely connect the first mounting frame 101. If there are multiple mounting layers, the multiple mounting layers are arranged horizontally and vertically opposite each other, and the electrical components are installed on each mounting layer.

[0083] Among them, the second electrical component 22 can be arranged on the bottom surface of the accommodating cavity or on the installation layer located below, and the first electrical component 21 is arranged on the installation layer above the second electrical component 22, thereby realizing the stacking of the first electrical component 21 and the second electrical component 22 in the vertical direction.

[0084] Specifically, the first electrical component 21 may be a 5G communication module, and the second electrical component 22 may be an industrial computer and a domain controller.

[0085] The bottom surface of the accommodating cavity is provided with a plurality of mounting positions, so that other electrical components can be arranged in the accommodating cavity, such as the inertial guide 34. In this embodiment, the inertial guide 34 is detachably connected to the bottom surface of the accommodating cavity by connecting components such as bolts.

[0086] The inertial navigation system 34 is also removably attached to the bottom surface of the cavity via a mounting bracket. The mounting bracket consists of two layers, with the lower layer reserved for mounting the switch. A certain gap exists between the two layers to facilitate heat dissipation. Each layer has four mounting holes, allowing for secure mounting to the cavity's bottom surface. The mounting bracket increases the cavity's volumetric capacity, and the dual-layer design also enhances the mounting bracket's strength.

[0087] A heat dissipation gap is provided between the first electrical component 21 and the second electrical component 22. The heat dissipation gap facilitates the discharge of heat generated by the electrical components, thereby preventing damage to the electrical components due to excessive temperature.

[0088] The distance between the mounting layers is greater than the height of the device, so that a heat dissipation gap is formed in the vertical direction.

[0089] It is understandable that when the data processing unit 2 includes more electrical components, heat dissipation gaps are provided between adjacent electrical components. Specifically, heat dissipation gaps are provided between adjacent electrical components in both the vertical and horizontal directions.

[0090] A heat sink 102 is provided at the bottom of the housing 1, which can improve the heat dissipation effect of the electrical components in the accommodating cavity, and can dissipate heat for multiple electrical components in the housing 1, further ensuring the service life of the electrical components.

[0091] The heat sink 102 may be a heat sink fin, which increases the heat dissipation area. There are multiple heat sink fins, which are arranged parallel to each other. The use of heat sink fins can effectively prevent dust from entering the interior of the control cabinet and affecting the normal operation of the electrical components.

[0092] The heat dissipation fins are arranged perpendicular to the bottom surface of the housing 1 .

[0093] The heat sink 102 is made of metal with good thermal conductivity.

[0094] The bottom of the housing 1 may also be made of metal with good thermal conductivity, and the heat generated by the electrical components may be dissipated through the bottom of the housing 1 and the heat sink 102 .

[0095] The first mounting frame 101 may also be made of metal with good thermal conductivity, so that the heat generated by the electrical components on the mounting layer can also be transferred to the bottom of the housing 1 and the heat sink 102 through the first mounting frame 101 .

[0096] The housing 1 includes a first door 103 and a second door 104, which are arranged relative to each other. The first door 103 and the second door 104 are used to open or close the storage chamber. When the storage chamber is open, electrical components can be installed. The first door 103 and the second door 104 are arranged relative to each other to facilitate the installation and wiring of electrical components. When the storage chamber is closed, the first door 103 and the second door 104 can prevent external dust and other debris or moisture from entering the storage chamber, thereby protecting the electrical components in the storage chamber and ensuring a good service life.

[0097] The housing 1 may be roughly in the shape of a strip, and the first door 103 and the second door 104 are opposite to each other along the width direction of the housing 1 , so as to further improve the convenience of installation.

[0098] Specifically, the first door body 103 and the second door body 104 can be the same in size and shape, and have opposite opening and closing directions. The first door body 103 and the second door body 104 can be roughly trapezoidal, with the upper base of the trapezoid located at the top and the lower base of the trapezoid located at the bottom.

[0099] Specifically, after the shell 1 is connected to the vehicle, the length direction of the long strip formed by the shell 1 can be the same as the left-right direction of the vehicle, and the width direction of the long strip formed by the shell 1 can be the same as the front-rear direction of the vehicle.

[0100] The housing 1 has certain waterproof and dustproof capabilities, and its protection level is IP54.

[0101] The first door body 103 and the second door body 104 are provided with sealing members to improve the sealing performance when closing.

[0102] Among them, the positions of the shell 1 corresponding to the first door body 103 and the second door body 104 are protruded outwards, thereby forming a waterproof stop, further improving the waterproof capability.

[0103] The sealing member may be a sealing strip, specifically a D-shaped waterproof strip, which effectively prevents rainwater from entering.

[0104] Specifically, the seal is arranged along the edges of the first door body 103 and the second door body 104. When the first door body 103 and the second door body 104 are closed, the seal is pressed between the shell 1 and the first door body 103 and between the shell 1 and the second door body 104 to achieve sealing.

[0105] In order to ensure waterproofness, good appearance and convenient wiring, the wiring is installed by opening holes nearby, and the wire entry hole is opened at the bottom of the shell 1.

[0106] A prefabricated installation structure 105 is provided at the installation position. By providing the prefabricated installation structure 105 , the installation of the data processing unit 2 and the acquisition unit 3 can be facilitated, thereby improving assembly efficiency.

[0107] Among them, at least a part of the installation structure is arranged on the outer wall of the shell 1, so as to facilitate the installation of equipment that needs to be exposed to the outside, such as the antenna 33 and the radar 32.

[0108] Part of the mounting structure may be arranged in the mounting cavity, that is, located on the cavity wall and bottom surface of the mounting cavity, so as to facilitate the installation of electrical components in the mounting cavity.

[0109] The prefabricated mounting structure 105 includes mounting holes and / or rivet nuts.

[0110] Specifically, by prefabricating mounting holes at the mounting location, the components to be mounted can be directly connected to the mounting holes using connecting components such as bolts and nuts, achieving a fixed connection and making installation and removal more convenient. Prefabricating rivet nuts at the mounting location can also directly connect the components to be mounted using bolts, making installation and removal quick and convenient.

[0111] Specifically, the installation position may be provided with only installation holes, or only rivet nuts, or part of the installation position may be provided with installation holes and part of the installation position may be provided with rivet nuts.

[0112] Among them, the reserved rivet nuts facilitate installation and maintenance during use. Rivet nuts are reserved on all facades of the entire collection equipment to effectively prevent the installation of equipment from affecting waterproofing.

[0113] Among them, the mounting holes and rivet nuts are correspondingly provided with wire holes, wire binding holes and wire binding posts to facilitate subsequent operations.

[0114] The installation position includes a first installation position 106 and a second installation position 107. The first installation position 106 is set on the first side of the shell 1, and the second installation position 107 is set on the second side of the shell 1. The first side and the second side are opposite sides. The acquisition unit 3 includes a camera 31 and an antenna 33. The first installation position 106 and the second installation position 107 are used to install the camera 31 and / or the antenna 33.

[0115] By setting a first mounting position 106 on the first side of the shell 1 and a second mounting position 107 on the second side of the shell 1, a good mounting position can be provided for the antenna 33 camera 31 and the antenna 33, and the camera 31 and the antenna 33 are fixed on both sides respectively. While avoiding interference between the camera 31 and the antenna 33, the gravity on both sides can be more balanced to ensure good stability.

[0116] The first side and the second side may be two sides in the length direction of the housing 1 or two sides in the width direction. In this embodiment, the first side and the second side are two sides in the length direction of the housing 1. Specifically, for example, the first mounting position 106 is located on the left side of the housing 1, and the second mounting position 107 is located on the right side of the housing 1.

[0117] The first installation position 106 and the second installation position 107 can respectively prefabricate the installation structure 105, thereby facilitating the installation of the camera 31 and / or the antenna 33.

[0118] Specifically, the camera 31 and the antenna 33 can be connected to the prefabricated mounting structure 105 on the first mounting position 106 and the second mounting position 107 by bolts to achieve detachable connection. Different models of cameras 31 and antenna 33 can be replaced according to needs, and the positions of the camera 31 and antenna 33 can also be interchanged.

[0119] The mounting position includes an adjustable camera mounting position 108, on which an adjustable camera mounting bracket 109 is provided. The camera 31 is rotatably connected to the adjustable camera mounting bracket 109 within a first plane. The adjustable camera mounting bracket 109 is provided with a connecting hole 1091, which extends in an arc shape within a second plane. A connecting member is connected to the housing 1 through the connecting hole 1091, so that the adjustable mounting plate can rotate at least 60 degrees within the second plane along the extension direction of the connecting hole 1091. The first plane is arranged at an angle to the second plane.

[0120] By providing the camera adjustable mounting bracket 109 , the camera 31 can be rotated according to needs, thereby adjusting the shooting direction, thereby expanding the shooting range of the camera 31 and meeting more usage needs.

[0121] The adjustable camera mounting position 108 is arranged on the top of the housing 1 , thereby ensuring good support for the camera 31 .

[0122] Specifically, such as Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the adjustable mounting bracket includes a mounting plate and a base. The mounting plate is hinged to the upper portion of the base, allowing the mounting plate to rotate on the base, thereby achieving rotation within a first plane. A connecting hole 1091 is provided on the base, and the base is connected to the top surface of the housing 1 via the connecting hole 1091 and a connecting member such as a bolt. Before tightening the bolt, the connecting hole 1091 can be slid relative to the bolt, thereby achieving rotation of the base within a second plane. The mounting plate and the camera 31 mounted thereon can also rotate with the base. After adjusting the shooting angle of the camera 31, tighten the bolt to secure the base to the top surface of the housing 1.

[0123] The first plane and the second plane are arranged perpendicularly. Specifically, in this embodiment, the first plane is a vertical plane and the second plane is a horizontal plane.

[0124] There may be two connection holes 1091 , and the two connection holes 1091 are symmetrically arranged on the base.

[0137] Specifically, the prefabricated installation structures 105 on the first installation position 106 , the second installation position 107 , and the third installation position 111 are identical, thereby achieving position interchangeability.

[0138] The second mounting bracket 112 may have four connecting legs, which are detachably connected to the third mounting position 111 via connecting components such as bolts.

[0139] The second mounting frame 112 is provided with weight-reducing holes, thereby reducing its own weight while ensuring strength.

[0140] Among them, the second mounting frame 112 is reserved with wire holes and wire binding holes to facilitate wiring and arrangement.

[0141] The radar 32 and the antenna 33 are detachably connected to the top of the second mounting bracket 112 .

[0142] Specifically, the antenna 33 connected to the second mounting bracket 112 may be a multi-in-one antenna 33 , such as a 5G nine-in-one antenna 33 .

[0143] The housing 1 is detachably provided with a first extension bracket 113 and a second extension bracket 114 . The first extension bracket 113 is provided on a first side of the housing 1 , and the second extension bracket 114 is provided on a second side of the housing 1 . The first side and the second side are opposite sides.

[0144] By providing the first expansion bracket 113 and the second expansion bracket 114, more installation locations can be provided, thereby enabling the installation of more devices. By placing the first expansion bracket 113 on the first side of the housing 1 and the second expansion bracket 114 on the second side of the housing 1, the overall balance is ensured and the risk of tipping is reduced.

[0145] As described above, the first side and the second side can be either the lengthwise or widthwise sides of the housing 1. In this embodiment, the first side and the second side are either the lengthwise sides of the housing 1. Specifically, the first extension bracket 113 is located on the left side of the housing 1, and the second extension bracket 114 is located on the right side of the housing 1.

[0146] The first extension bracket 113 and the second extension bracket 114 are both detachably connected to the installation position of the housing 1 .

[0147] The first extension bracket 113 and the second extension bracket 114 have the same shape and size, which further ensures overall stability.

[0148] Among them, the first extension bracket 113 and the second extension bracket 114 can be long strips as a whole, and both extend obliquely and away from the middle of the shell 1, thereby reducing the mutual influence between the components on the first extension bracket 113, the components on the second extension bracket 114 and the components on the outer wall of the shell 1.

[0149] The first extension bracket 113 and the second extension bracket 114 both include a flat plate and a flange, which ensures good strength while reducing weight.

[0152] By providing a fourth mounting position 115 on the first extension bracket 113 and a fifth mounting position 116 on the second extension bracket 114 , the number of mounting positions can be further expanded, thereby enabling the installation of more electrical components.

[0153] The prefabricated mounting structure 105 on the fourth mounting position 115 is identical to the prefabricated mounting structure 105 on the fifth mounting position 116, thereby enabling interchangeability of connected electrical components. In other words, electrical components on the fourth mounting position 115 can be transferred to the fifth mounting position 116, and electrical components on the fifth mounting position 116 can be transferred to the fourth mounting position 115.

[0154] The fourth mounting position 115 can be used to mount the camera 31 or the antenna 33, or to mount both without interference. The fifth mounting position 116 can be used to mount the camera 31 or the antenna 33, or to mount both without interference.

[0155] Specifically, the electrical components on the fourth installation position 115 can be the same as or different from the electrical components on the fifth installation position 116. When the same electrical components are installed, the left and right sides of the environment collection device are more balanced.

[0156] More specifically, the fourth mounting position 115 and the fifth mounting position 116 can be used to install the differential positioning antenna 33 and the visual camera 31 .

[0157] The fourth mounting position 115 and / or the fifth mounting position 116 are provided with a first camera hole group 117 and a second camera hole group 118. The installation directions of the camera 31 on the first camera hole group 117 and the second camera hole group 118 are the same or different, providing different installation positions for the camera 31, thereby enabling more cameras 31 to be installed, and also allowing the camera 31 to shoot in different directions to obtain image information from more angles.

[0158] Among them, the first camera hole group 117 and the second camera hole group 118 can be set on the fourth installation position 115, or on the fifth installation position 116, or on the fourth installation position 115 and the fifth installation position at the same time.

[0159] The camera 31 may have different shooting directions when installed in different orientations. For example, the camera 31 may be mounted in the first camera hole group 117 and may be mounted in the second camera hole group 118 and may be mounted in the backward direction. Alternatively, the camera 31 may be mounted in the forward direction or the backward direction. The specific direction may be flexibly set based on actual conditions.
