[0026] To make the purpose, technical solution, and advantages of the present invention more clear, the technical solution of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below. Obviously, the embodiments described are only some of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments derived by persons of ordinary skill in the art without inventive effort are also within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0027] This utility model proposes a port safety combustible and toxic device, which is an intelligent all-in-one device for monitoring hot work operations. It integrates gas detection, high-definition video, 4G and Bluetooth wireless communications, GPS / Beidou positioning, data storage, alarm and other functions. It can be used to quickly detect the concentrations of oxygen, hydrogen sulfide, combustible gas and carbon monoxide in the current environment and provide early warnings. It can also record on-site video data and other sensor data in real time, and upload the data to the monitoring platform via the 4G wireless network. Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a port safety flammable and toxic gas monitoring device provided by the embodiment of the utility model. Figure 1 , specifically including:
[0028] Host 1: includes a gas monitoring unit, a high-definition video unit, a wireless communication unit and a monitoring platform; the gas monitoring unit and the high-definition video unit are connected to the monitoring platform via the wireless communication unit.
[0029] Among them, the host 1 is composed of an outer shell, an upper cover, and a lower cover. The upper cover is installed on the top of the outer shell by bolts, and the lower cover is installed on the bottom of the outer shell by bolts. Therefore, the outer shell, the upper cover, and the lower cover together constitute an installation compartment. A battery is installed in the installation compartment, and the battery is connected to the switch. The installation compartment is also provided with a monitoring platform. The battery supplies power to the gas monitoring unit, the high-definition video unit, the wireless communication unit, and the monitoring platform. A host 1 indicator light is also provided at the front end of the host 1 to confirm the operating status of the host 1. The battery is also provided with a charging port 7. When the battery power is low, open the upper cover and charge in a safe area. Charge the battery through the charging port 7. After charging is completed, be sure to fix the upper cover.
[0030] Press the main unit's power button 6. If the main unit's indicator light remains green and there's a sound from the internal air pump, the unit is booting normally. Before starting operations, main unit 1 needs to be preheated for 5 minutes. If main unit 1 has not been used for an extended period (>7 days), it needs to be preheated for at least 10 minutes. Occasional alarms during the preheating period are normal. Main unit 1 will typically connect to the network within 35 seconds of powering on, and the main unit's indicator light will change from slowly flashing green to steadily green. If the main unit's indicator light flashes slowly (on and off every 1 second), regardless of the color, it indicates an abnormality with the video streaming on main unit 1. If the main unit's indicator light flashes rapidly (on and off every 0.2 seconds), regardless of the color, it indicates that main unit 1 has detected an environmental anomaly or has received a command from the system, requiring immediate termination. A green main unit indicator light indicates that the battery level is above 15%, an orange light indicates that the battery level is above 5%, and a red light indicates that the battery level is below 5%.
[0031] The gas monitoring unit includes multiple sensors that can monitor the concentrations of multiple gases simultaneously, such as oxygen, hydrogen sulfide, combustible gas, and carbon monoxide. The sensors are placed in the installation compartment.
[0032] The high-definition video unit includes a camera that can record video data of the work site in real time.
[0033] The wireless communication unit includes a 4G antenna 2, a GPS antenna 3, and a UWB antenna 4. The 4G antenna 2 is mounted on the host 1 and connected to the monitoring platform via a network. The GPS antenna 3 is connected to the host 1 to receive satellite signals, obtain location information, and transmit it to the host 1. The UWB antenna 4 is mounted on the host 1 and communicates with the ranging tag. The 4G antenna 2 and the GPS antenna 3 transmit data monitored by the gas monitoring unit and the high-definition video unit to the monitoring platform. The 4G antenna 2 and the GPS antenna 3 are preferably linear antennas, and the UWB antenna 4 is preferably a rod antenna.
[0034] The host 1 further includes a temperature monitoring unit for real-time monitoring of the ambient temperature. The temperature monitoring unit is connected to the monitoring platform.
[0035] Distance measuring unit: includes a distance measuring tag, which is connected to the host 1 through a wireless communication unit and is used to monitor the distance between the distance measuring tag and the host 1 in real time. A distance measuring module is set in the installation compartment, and the distance measuring tag is connected to the distance measuring module, and the distance measuring module is connected to the monitoring platform through the UWB antenna 4. The distance measuring tag includes an SOS button, a pairing indicator light and a power indicator light. Before the operation, the staff moves the distance measuring tag to the position to be measured, and long presses the SOS button to turn on or off the distance measuring tag. The pairing indicator light is used to confirm the pairing status of the distance measuring tag and the host 1. If the pairing indicator light flashes blue, it means that the matching is successful and the ranging is normal. If the pairing indicator light flashes red, it means that the distance measuring tag has not been matched to the host 1. The power indicator light is used to confirm the power status of the distance measuring tag. If the power indicator light is always green, it means that the distance measuring tag has sufficient power. If the power indicator light is always red, it means that the distance measuring tag is low in power and please charge it in time.
[0036] Alarm 5: connected to host 1, used to issue an alarm when abnormal conditions are detected. Specifically:
[0037] When host 1 detects an abnormality in the current environment or the system sends a relevant instruction, the buzzer sounds and the alarm light flashes rapidly. If the current oxygen concentration is insufficient or the system sends a relevant instruction, alarm 5 will sound, indicating insufficient oxygen concentration. If the current oxygen concentration exceeds the standard or the system sends a relevant instruction, alarm 5 will sound, indicating excessive oxygen concentration. If the current hydrogen sulfide concentration exceeds the standard or the system sends a relevant instruction, alarm 5 will sound, indicating excessive hydrogen sulfide concentration. If the current carbon monoxide concentration exceeds the standard or the system sends a relevant instruction, alarm 5 will sound, indicating excessive carbon monoxide concentration. If the current combustible gas concentration exceeds the low alarm value or the system sends a relevant instruction, alarm 5 will sound, indicating excessive combustible gas concentration. If the current combustible gas concentration exceeds the high alarm value or the system sends a relevant instruction, alarm 5 will sound, indicating a severe excessive combustible gas concentration. If the distance between the tag and host 1 is out of range or the system sends a relevant instruction, alarm 5 will sound, indicating the tag is out of range. If the current temperature is below the lower limit or above the upper limit or the system sends a relevant instruction, alarm 5 will sound, indicating a temperature abnormality.
[0038] In another embodiment, the device may experience some faults before or during operation: it is normal for the indicator light to flash slowly when the host 1 is just turned on because the host 1 is not connected to the Internet; if the indicator light flashes slowly when the host 1 is operating normally, the possible reason is that the internal camera connection of the host 1 is loose, or the 4G network is disconnected, resulting in abnormal video streaming; the internal sensor connection of the host 1 is loose or not working and a -404 status will be returned; if the tag and the host 1 are both working, but the returned distance data is -404, it may be that the UWB antenna is not connected or the signal is blocked; after the host 1 is preheated, if the GPS returns 0, it may be that the GPS antenna is not connected or the signal is blocked; the 4G network disconnection may be caused by the 4G antenna not being connected, insufficient 4G network card traffic or a blocked signal.
