[0002] In the field of forest fire prevention, due to the large forest area, the potential for forest fires is high during the hot summer. However, surveillance cameras often cannot cover the entire forest area, so a scanning device is needed to scan the forest area. Existing scanning devices generally only scan between two points, and the speed and angle of the pan / tilt cannot be adjusted in real time based on the position. In addition, environmental factors such as forest temperature and humidity also play a significant role in the formation of fires. When the forest environment changes, the scanning method must also be adjusted accordingly. Utility Model Content

The pan-tilt head and the infrared camera are connected to the output end of the controller. The pan-tilt head is used to drive the infrared camera to move, and the infrared camera is used to scan the forest; an encoder is provided on the pan-tilt head, the encoder obtains the position of the pan-tilt head and transmits it to the controller, and the controller is connected to the pan-tilt head stepper motor.
[0005] Furthermore, PWM is used to control the pan-tilt stepper motor. The controller connects the pan-tilt stepper motor phase lines A and A', and phase lines B and B' through connector J3. Phase lines A and A' are used to control the stepper motor to rotate clockwise and counterclockwise, and phase lines B and B' are used to control the stepper motor to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise by a step angle.
[0006] Furthermore, the controller is connected to the pan-tilt encoder through connector J1, which is provided with A line, B line, Z line, shielding line, power line and ground line. The A line and B line are used to transmit the rotation direction and rotation angle. When the pan-tilt rotates one circle, the Z line sends a pulse signal.

[0016] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0017] Example 1
[0018] This embodiment discloses a forest fire prevention scanning device, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a temperature and humidity sensor, a controller, a pan-tilt head and an infrared camera. The temperature and humidity sensor is connected to the input end of the controller and is used to transmit the temperature and humidity of the forest environment to the controller. The pan-tilt head and the infrared camera are connected to the output end of the controller. The pan-tilt head is used to drive the infrared camera to move, and the infrared camera is used to scan the forest. An encoder is provided on the pan-tilt head, which obtains the position of the pan-tilt head and transmits it to the controller. The controller is connected to the pan-tilt head stepper motor, and the stepper motor drives the pan-tilt head to rotate.
[0019] like Figure 2 As shown, the controller is an STM32 microcontroller, and its interfaces PWM_H1, PWM_H2, PWM_V1 and PWM_V2 are connected to the pan-tilt stepper motor through connector J3, as shown in Figure 3As shown, PWM is used to control the stepper motor. PWM_H1 and PWM_H2 are the phase lines A and A' of the stepper motor, which are used to control clockwise and counterclockwise rotation. PWM_V1 and PWM_V2 are the phase lines B and B' of the stepper motor, which can control the stepper motor to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise by a step angle.
[0020] like Figure 4 As shown, the controller and the pan-tilt encoder are connected through connector J1. Connector J1 is equipped with A line, B line, Z line, shielding line, power line and ground line. A line and B line are used to transmit the rotation direction and rotation angle. When the pan-tilt rotates one circle, the Z line sends a pulse signal. The shielding line is used to reduce external magnetic field interference. The power line and ground line are used for power supply and grounding respectively.
[0021] like Figure 5 As shown, the system also includes a serial communication chip, connected between the controller and the thermal imaging unit, to obtain fire point information detected by the thermal imaging unit. Specifically, the serial communication chip is a MAX3232, with its input connected to the controller and its output connected to the thermal imaging unit. The thermal imaging unit performs real-time detection, enabling immediate fire point information and location.
[0022] The scanning device described in this embodiment obtains the temperature and humidity in the environment through the temperature and humidity sensor, controls the pan-tilt head so that the infrared camera sets the scanning area facing the forest area, and then controls the pan-tilt head to scan, obtains the image grayscale value based on the infrared camera, and obtains the temperature based on the image grayscale value of the scanning area to determine whether there is a fire hazard. The controller can set the key scanning area, and the rotation direction and angle of the stepper motor can also be set. During the rotation, the encoder obtains the pan-tilt head position in real time. When it is about to exceed the scanning range, the pan-tilt head position is adjusted to start a new round of scanning. The risk of fire in an environment with high temperature and low humidity will be greatly increased. The scanning speed can be controlled according to the temperature and humidity in the air. In an environment with high temperature and low humidity, the scanning speed can be increased to detect fires more quickly. In an environment with low temperature and high humidity, the scanning speed can be reduced and scanned more carefully to detect hidden risks.
[0023] The above description is only the basic principle and preferred embodiments of the present invention. Improvements and substitutions made by those skilled in the art based on the present invention fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
