Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model according to specific circumstances.

[0029] refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 This embodiment is described in detail. A low-power pressure acquisition unit based on wireless transmission technology includes a control system and a data transmission unit;

[0030] The control system includes a monitoring system 1 and a low-power pressure acquisition unit 2;

[0031] The data transmission unit includes a power switch control module 3, an internal FLASH storage module 4, a lithium battery power supply module 5, an MCU main control module 6 and a Lora470M wireless communication module 7;

[0032] The monitoring system 1 is connected to the Lora470M wireless communication module 7, the Lora470M wireless communication module 7 is connected to the MCU main control module 6, and the MCU main control module 6 is connected to the low-power pressure acquisition unit 2, the power switch control module 3 and the internal FLASH storage module 4 respectively;

[0033] Specifically, in this embodiment, the monitoring system 1 is connected to the cloud platform. The monitoring system 1 sends a query instruction 01, indicating that the low-power pressure acquisition unit 2 receives the read pressure value. The low-power pressure acquisition unit 2 regularly transmits the pressure value to the monitoring system 1 according to the set reporting cycle. The monitoring system 1 then transmits the collected pressure data to the cloud platform for storage and subsequent analysis.

[0034] The power switch control module 3 is connected to the MOS tube through the IO port of the MCU main control module 6, that is, the central processing unit. The IO port of the MCU main control module 6 outputs high and low levels, thereby controlling the switch of the 3.3V power output end (power supply POWER_OUT port). The purpose is to ensure that in low power mode, the device has no power input and reduces power consumption;

[0035] The switching functions of the MOS tube are as follows: 1. High controllability: By adjusting the gate voltage, the conductive channel of the MOS tube can be precisely controlled to achieve fine adjustment of the current, thereby realizing highly controllable switching operation; 2. Low power consumption: In static conditions, the MOS tube basically consumes no power and only requires a short energy supply when switching, making it widely used in electronic devices, especially in scenarios with low power consumption requirements; 3. Fast response: Due to the structure and principle of the MOS tube, its switching speed is very fast and can complete the switching operation at the nanosecond level, making it suitable for high-frequency electronic equipment and communication systems; the switching start condition of the MOS tube is: when the MCU main control module 6 gives a high level, the MOS tube switch is turned on;

[0036] The internal FLASH storage module 4 is used to store the configuration data of each valve in real time. The configuration data will not be lost after power failure, and the number of erase and write times is up to 1 million times.

[0037] The Lora470M wireless communication module 7 adopts the most popular Lora technology, with long signal communication distance and strong wall penetration ability. Through the 470MHZ wireless fixed-point communication mode of Lora technology, the address and channel are specified to interact with the valve. Before each communication, the Lora470M wireless communication module 7 will send a fixed-duration wake-up code to wake up the valve for interaction.

[0038] The lithium battery power supply module 5 is used to power the Lora470M wireless communication module 7 and the low-power pressure acquisition unit 2; the low-power pressure acquisition unit 2 is used to collect pressure data collected by the device in real time;

[0040] Furthermore, the MCU main control module 6 is an MCU main control module using the HC32L196KCAT chip;

[0041] Specifically, the MCU main control module 6 has super low power consumption. When using an external low-speed clock (32.768KHZ), the power consumption is 5uA. The internal FLASH storage module 4 is the internal FLASH configured for the MCU main control module 6; the MCU main control module 6 includes a first decoupling capacitor C8 and a second decoupling capacitor C9. The decoupling capacitor of the microcontroller pin plays a very important role in circuit design. Its main function is to eliminate or reduce the noise and voltage fluctuations on the microcontroller pin to ensure the stable operation of the microcontroller. The decoupling capacitor is usually placed between the power pin and the ground pin of the microcontroller to form a low-impedance power supply loop to reduce the impact of power supply noise on the microcontroller. In addition, the decoupling capacitor can also provide transient current to meet the current required by the microcontroller during fast switching, thereby avoiding the reduction of the power supply voltage; the MCU main control module 6 also includes a reset circuit composed of a ninth resistor R9 and a fifteenth capacitor C15.

[0042] Furthermore, the internal FLASH storage module 4 is an internal FLASH storage module using a HC32L196KCA chip.

[0043] Furthermore, the Lora470M wireless communication module 7 is a Lora470M wireless communication module using a WH-L101-L chip;

[0044] Specifically, when the Lora470M wireless communication unit 7 receives and sends data, it is configured through AT commands to enter low power consumption mode; the WH-L101-L chip has high anti-interference and stability, its operating frequency band is 410Mhz-525Mhz (the default frequency is 470Mhz), the operating range is 1.9V-3.7V, and the minimum sleep current for point-to-point use is only 2.5uA. It can support point-to-point and be used with LoRa gateways, and has TTL level output; the WH-L101-L chip has higher anti-interference, stability, and a longer transmission distance, and integrates three communication protocols into one, supports point-to-point, and is used with USR-LG210-L and USR-LG220-L gateway communications. One module is suitable for multiple scenarios; the WH-L101-L chip supports relay data transmission, and can perform multi-module relay transmission for ultra-long-distance wireless data transmission, multi-device relay use, and long-distance transmission can reach 6000 meters, transmission power 22dBm±0.5dBm, receiving sensitivity can reach -140dBm@0.268Kbps; the WH-L101-L chip monitors LoRa signals, which can display the signal quality during data transmission and whether there is interference in the used frequency band, ensuring device transmission stability; the WH-L101-L chip has an LBT function, which detects channel environment interference noise before sending data. When noise is detected, it delays transmission to prevent channel conflicts and ensure the success rate of device data communication; the WH-L101-L chip has four power consumption modes: RUN\WU\LR\LSR ​​mode, and the power consumption in LSR mode is about 2.5uA; the WH-L101-L chip also has a watchdog function to prevent module downtime and abnormalities, and can quickly restart and recover. The hardware operating range is -40℃-+85℃, the mechanical dimensions are 26.65x18.22x2.60mm, and it adopts SMT patch package.

[0045] Furthermore, the low-power pressure acquisition unit 2 is a low-power pressure acquisition unit using a JHM1203 chip;

[0046] Specifically, the low-power pressure acquisition unit 2 adopts the JHM1203 chip. The JHM1203 chip is a high-precision signal conditioning chip designed for differential signals. It has rich internal resources and integrates a pre-PGA, a 24-bit analog-to-digital converter, a temperature sensor, a digital processor and a memory. At the same time, the JHM1203 chip is designed for low-power applications, with an operating current of less than 0.6mA and a standby current of less than 0.1uA. The JHM1203 chip integrates a variety of compensation algorithms, through which the original value of the collected signal can be digitally compensated, including the zero-point deviation, sensitivity deviation and nonlinear deviation of the signal. The coefficients of the compensation algorithm are saved in the one-time programmable memory (OTP) integrated on the chip and can still be maintained after power failure. The compensated data is output by the JHM1203 chip through the IIC interface. In this embodiment, the pressure source adopts a four-wire design, and the four-wire sensor uses two signal lines to transmit the signal. The reason is to improve the stability and Accuracy, that is, when two signal lines are used to transmit signals, if one of the signal lines is interfered with or damaged, the other signal line can still work normally, thereby avoiding interruption or error in signal transmission; the JMH1203 chip uses a four-wire connection method to input the pressure data of the pressure sensor through the second relay J2, and the amplifier uses an OPA337UA instrument amplifier or an ordinary operational amplifier to form a differential amplifier to form an operational amplifier circuit. Only one external resistor, the fourteenth resistor R14, is needed to set the amplification gain G, G = (100KΩ / R14) + 1, and the set amplification gain G = 11 is obtained. In addition, the sixteenth capacitor C16 and the nineteenth capacitor C19 form a filtering circuit. The operational amplifier circuit amplifies the collected pressure data and transmits it to the JMH24-bit ADC digital chip. The ADC module transmits the converted analog pressure data to the MCU main control module 6 through IIC communication after digital conversion. At the same time, the tenth resistor R10 and the thirteenth resistor R13 form a voltage divider circuit to provide working voltage for the operational amplifier circuit.

[0047] Furthermore, the lithium battery power supply module 5 is a lithium battery power supply module using an XC6220B331MR-G chip;

[0048] Furthermore, the power switch control module 3 is a power switch control module that adopts a combination of a CJ1012 chip and a CJ2307 chip.

[0049] Furthermore, a low-power pressure collection unit based on wireless transmission technology also includes a shell and an antenna. The shell adopts a flip-top waterproof shell, and the shell is provided with a charging interface and an antenna interface. The antenna is fixed to the outside of the shell through the antenna interface by a threaded connection. The data transmission unit is arranged inside the shell, and the data transmission unit and the antenna are connected by an antenna adapter cable.

[0050] A low-power pressure acquisition unit based on wireless transmission technology works as follows: the lithium battery power supply module 5 provides power, and the MCU main control module 6 initializes the entire system after power-on, that is, performs a series of initialization configurations such as address, channel, working mode, etc. on the Lora470M wireless communication module 7, and performs function initialization configuration on the related resources used; first, the low-power pressure acquisition unit 2, active reporting cycle, local address, local channel and other information automatically stored before the system is powered off are read from the internal FLASH storage module 4, and the MCU main control module 6 drives the low-power pressure acquisition unit 2 to collect current pressure data. When the timing time is greater than the active reporting cycle, the low-power pressure acquisition unit 2 will actively output the current pressure data to the real-time receiving monitoring system 1. After receiving the data, the monitoring system 1 transmits all the data of the low-power pressure acquisition unit 2 to the cloud platform in real time; finally, the Lora470M wireless communication module 7 automatically enters low-power mode;
