Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of transmission technology, and more particularly to a communication pole. Background Art

[0002] Currently, overhead poles used for overhead optical cables are made of concrete or oil-coated wood. After installation, information such as the pole number and construction year is spray-painted on the poles. However, this information can become illegible or lost after prolonged exposure to the sun and dew, creating a hassle for network operations and maintenance managers. Repainting also incurs significant costs. Therefore, to manage pole information, telecom operators are beginning to plan to install electronic tags on the poles, enabling digital, intelligent management through a management platform.

[0003] However, after the poles are installed, installing electronic tags again can solve the problem of pole information loss, but it cannot always monitor the operating status of the poles and changes in the surrounding environment, such as pole collapse, external damage, and damage to the pole line caused by mud and rock flow.

Together with the embodiments of the present disclosure, they are used to explain the present disclosure and are not intended to limit the present disclosure. In the drawings, the same reference numerals generally represent the same components or steps.

[0026] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating application of a communication pole according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0027] Figure 2 is a plan view illustrating an electronic tag to which an embodiment of the present disclosure is applied.

[0028] Figure 3 is a side view illustrating an electronic tag to which an embodiment of the present disclosure is applied. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present disclosure clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, not all of the embodiments. The components of the embodiments of the present disclosure generally described and shown in the drawings herein can be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present disclosure provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the disclosure for which protection is sought, but merely represents selected embodiments of the present disclosure. Based on the embodiments of the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0030] It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters denote similar items in the following drawings, and therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not require further definition or explanation in subsequent drawings.

[0031] The term "and / or" herein simply describes an association relationship, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B can represent the existence of A alone, the simultaneous existence of A and B, and the existence of B alone. In addition, the term "at least one" herein refers to any combination of at least two of any one or more of a plurality of items. For example, "at least one of A, B, and C" can represent any one or more elements selected from the set consisting of A, B, and C.

[0032] The communication poles in the related art have the following problems:

[0033] Communication poles lack intelligent management methods and cannot monitor the operating status of communication poles and changes in the surrounding environment at all times, such as pole displacement and pole collapse caused by soil erosion.

[0034] The installation of electronic tags is time-consuming and labor-intensive. During installation, each communication pole is secured with steel wires, which affects operations and maintenance personnel as they go up and down the poles.

[0035] The data on electronic tags must be collected on-site, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and has high management costs. Currently, electronic tags on communication poles use NFC technology, which has a short sensing range. Operation and maintenance managers need to collect data on-site with a handheld data collection gun.

[0036] To alleviate the technical problems existing in related technologies, the present disclosure provides a communication pole. The pole includes a pre-installed hole for electronic tag installation and a device for securing the tag. These holes and the device allow the tag to be attached to the pole. Compared to the wire-fixing method used in related technologies, this method is quicker and more convenient, and the tag is less likely to fall off. Furthermore, the pole is equipped with a sensor that monitors the pole's operating status and changes in the surrounding environment.

[0037] To facilitate understanding of this embodiment, a communication pole disclosed in the embodiment of the present disclosure is first introduced in detail.

[0038] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 FIG. 1 is a structural diagram of a communication pole provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure, and the communication pole may include:

[0039] An electronic tag fixing device 1, a sensor 2, and an electronic tag installation reserved hole 4 provided on the side wall of a communication pole 3 and adapted to the electronic tag fixing device 1;

[0040] The electronic tag fixing device 1 is embedded in the electronic tag installation reserved hole 4 and is used to fix the electronic tag 5 on the communication pole 3;

[0041] The sensor 2 is electrically connected to the electronic tag 5 .

[0042] The communication poles provided in the disclosed embodiments include holes for mounting electronic tags and a device for securing them. These holes and the device allow for the installation of electronic tags on the poles. Compared to the conventional method of securing electronic tags with wire, this method is quicker and more convenient, and the tags are less likely to fall off. Furthermore, sensors are installed on the poles to monitor the pole's operating status and changes in the surrounding environment.

[0043] In one or more embodiments, a protrusion is provided on the electronic tag fixing device 1, and a concave hole matching the protrusion is provided on the inner wall of the electronic tag installation reserved hole 4;

[0044] The electronic tag fixing device 1 is inserted into the electronic tag installation reserved hole 4 by inserting the protrusion into the concave hole.

[0045] In this embodiment, the size and depth of the reserved hole for electronic tag installation are consistent with the external structure of the electronic tag fixing device. The insertion position of the electronic tag fixing device, i.e., a recessed hole, is provided in the reserved hole for electronic tag installation. The protrusion of the electronic tag fixing device is inserted into the recessed hole, thereby enabling the electronic tag fixing device to be inserted into the reserved hole for electronic tag installation.

[0046] In one or more embodiments, a pin hole is provided inside the protrusion;

[0047] The connecting pin of the sensor 3 passes through the pin hole and is electrically connected to the electronic tag 5 .

[0048] The concave hole is provided with a pin hole, and the connecting pin of the sensor 2 is inserted into the pin hole and contacts the electronic tag 5 to realize the connection between the sensor 2 and the electronic tag 5.

[0049] In this embodiment, for sensors that use connecting pins as interfaces, by setting pin holes, a stable connection between the sensor and the electronic tag fixed on the electronic tag fixing device can be achieved, which is conducive to the subsequent reporting of the information collected by the sensor to the remote smart management platform through the microprocessor in the electronic tag.

[0050] In one or more embodiments, the distance between the position of the reserved hole for installing the electronic tag and the end of the communication pole for installing on the supporting ground is 40% to 60% of the total pole length of the communication pole.

[0051] In this embodiment, the distance between the hole for electronic tag installation and the end of the communication pole intended for ground installation is set at 40% to 60% of the total pole length. This facilitates checking the installation quality of the communication pole by determining its buried depth, maintaining construction quality and improving network security robustness. For example, if the hole is 3 meters from the bottom end of the communication pole, and the hole is 2 meters from the ground after installation, the buried depth of the pole is only 1 meter, which does not meet the communication industry standard and is considered an unqualified installation.

[0052] In one or more embodiments, the sensor 2 is further buried in the soil through the recessed hole and the cavity of the communication pole.

[0053] In this embodiment, the sensor can be a flexible steel wire. One end of the device extends to the end of a communication pole, extending from several tens of centimeters to one meter. The other end extends to the reserved electronic tag mounting hole on the communication pole. After the electronic tag is installed, it can be connected to the electronic tag. This connection can be an interface or a press-and-touch type. The electronic tag can be activated by sensing signals, actively reporting sensing information to a remote smart management platform. The smart management platform then dispatches a work order to the operations and maintenance manager for on-site processing. Alternatively, if the reported information indicates a major geological disaster, the local government can be notified and emergency personnel can be evacuated, reducing unnecessary human injury and property loss. The sensor uses the inductive frequency modulation principle to determine whether the communication pole has shifted. That is, one end is connected to the electronic tag fixing device, and the other end extends into the soil. When the soil is displaced or deformed, the flexible steel wire will produce corresponding expansion and contraction, thereby changing the physical quantity of the inductive frequency modulation sensor. The sensed information collected by the electronic tag is then encoded and actively reported to the smart management platform through the Internet of Things or communication module. This means that the surrounding soil environment of the communication pole can be determined. This method can also be used to monitor natural disasters such as landslides, floods, and mudslides around the communication pole.

[0054] In one or more embodiments, Figure 1-3 As shown, the electronic tag fixing device also includes:

[0055] A pop-up device 6 provided on the fixing device of the electronic tag 5;

[0056] The electronic tag fixing device clamps or releases the electronic tag through a pop-up device.

[0057] In this embodiment, the pop-up mechanism and the electronic tag fixing device can be integrated into a single design and can be manufactured together with the communication pole and sensor, or separately. Once the electronic tag is fixed, if it breaks and needs to be removed and replaced, the broken tag can be quickly replaced by pressing the pop-up mechanisms on either side. This device can be made of stainless steel to prevent plastic material aging and subsequent unusability. The device can be designed in an arc shape to match the circular structure of the pole.

[0058] In one or more embodiments, the pop-up device is nested in the electronic tag fixing device.

[0059] In one or more embodiments, the pop-up device and the electronic tag fixing device are integrally formed.

[0060] In one or more embodiments, a retaining groove is provided on one side of the protrusion facing the pin insertion hole;

[0061] The side walls of the locking groove are used to clamp the sensor 2 .

[0062] In this embodiment, the electronic tag fixture is raised approximately 1 cm to provide space for the pop-up device. The raised portion also features a pinhole, the top of which connects to the electronic tag. A retaining groove is also provided on the raised portion to prevent poor sensor contact and delayed data collection. This device can be pre-installed on the communication pole along with the pop-up device, or it can be added later. If the electronic tag fixture and pop-up device are installed together on the communication pole, the sensor should be connected to both the fixture and the pop-up device in advance. This mounting method should preferably be nested, matching the reserved RFID tag mounting hole on the communication pole, especially the matching of the pinhole and the pin. Too long or too short is not acceptable.

[0063] This communication pole monitoring method is based on the flexible steel wire sensor installed on the communication pole to sense the changes in the environment around the communication pole (such as soil displacement), upload the sensor information to the memory on the electronic tag, and then use the active reporting function of the electronic tag to actively report the sensing information to the smart management platform through the Internet of Things or 4 / 5G communication, so as to achieve real-time online monitoring of the route safety of the overhead pole line and the operating status of the pole.

[0064] Based on the smart management platform, command signals are sent through the Internet of Things or 4 / 5G communications, and the electronic tags on certain smart poles are triggered through the electromagnetic wave signal flow. The perception information in the memory of the electronic tag is then encoded and read and sent back to the smart management platform to realize the monitoring and management of overhead poles and pole resources.

[0065] The installation operation process of the above-mentioned communication poles.

[0066] The installation of communication poles based on smart communication is similar to the installation of concrete poles. First, dig a foundation pit, and then install the communication poles manually or mechanically.

[0067] Before backfilling the soil, a flexible steel wire extending to the bottom of the communication pole is inserted into the soil.

[0068] Backfill and compact the soil.

[0069] Install the electronic tag in the reserved hole for the electronic tag on the communication pole. First install the electronic tag fixing device and the pop-up device, press the device into the fixing device, and then press the electronic tag.

[0070] To remove the electronic tag, you only need to pop up the device and lift or pop up the electronic tag.

[0071] Compared with the related art, the technical advantages of the present disclosure are:

[0072] Solve the problem of rapid installation and removal of electronic tags.

[0073] The electronic tag is easy to install, saving installation materials and reducing the cost and construction expenses.

[0074] The system can constantly monitor environmental changes and operational status around communication poles. Sensors installed at the base of the poles detect environmental changes and determine their operational status. For example, if a landslide or soil movement occurs near a pole, the sensor will detect it and proactively report the information to the smart management platform via RFID tags. The smart management platform then issues a work order or shares the information with external parties, preventing natural disasters and protecting the security of the communication overhead optical cable network and the lives of residents along the line.

[0075] It should be noted that:

[0076] In the description provided herein, numerous specific details are described. However, it is understood that embodiments of the present disclosure can be practiced without these specific details. In some instances, well-known structures and technologies are not shown in detail so as not to obscure the understanding of this description.

However, this disclosed approach should not be interpreted as reflecting a schematic representation that the claimed disclosure requires more features than are expressly recited in each claim. Rather, as reflected in the claims below, the invention aspects lie in less than all of the features of the individual embodiments disclosed above. Accordingly, the claims that follow the detailed description are hereby expressly incorporated into the detailed description, with each claim standing on its own as a separate embodiment of the present disclosure.
