[0025] Reference Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a precise passenger flow monitoring rail transit sensing device, comprising:
[0026] The monitoring unit 100 includes a pressure monitoring component 101. A first connecting plate 103 and a second connecting plate 104 are respectively disposed on both sides of the pressure monitoring component 101. An infrared receiver 106 is fixedly connected to one outer surface of the first connecting plate 103, and an infrared transmitter 105 is fixedly connected to one outer surface of the second connecting plate 104. A camera 107 is fixedly connected to the middle of the upper surface of both the first and second connecting plates 103 and 104. A storage device 108 and a signal transmitter 109 are fixedly connected to one side of the upper surface of the first connecting plate 103. Multiple fixing components 110 are symmetrically disposed on both outer surfaces of the first and second connecting plates 103 and 104. Multiple magnets 111 are fixedly connected to the far sides of the first and second connecting plates 103 and 104. A power connection terminal 112 is fixedly connected to one side of the upper surface of the second connecting plate 104. Infrared transmitter 105 and infrared receiver 106 are at the same horizontal height and are electrically connected to the inside of storage 108. Signal transmitter 109 is electrically connected to storage 108. Pressure monitoring component 101 can sense changes in passenger weight, providing a preliminary estimate of passenger count. Infrared transmitter 105 and infrared receiver 106 form an infrared obstacle line. When a passenger passes through, the infrared path is interrupted, and this change is captured and recorded for further accurate calculation of passenger flow. Simultaneously, camera 107 can perform visual monitoring to assist in confirming passenger count. Data from the infrared component and camera 107 is stored in storage 108 and transmitted in real time to the central control system via signal transmitter 109, ensuring timely data updates and processing. The arrangement of multiple magnets 111 helps enhance the fixation and stability of the equipment, ensuring monitoring accuracy, while power connection terminal 112 provides a stable power supply, ensuring long-term stable operation of the equipment.
[0027] The pressure monitoring component 101 includes a base 101a. A groove 101b is formed on the upper surface of the base 101a. Multiple pressure detectors 101c are fixedly connected inside the groove 101b. A cover plate 101d is fixedly connected to the upper surface of each pressure detector 101c, and the outer edge of the cover plate 101d fits into the interior of the groove 101b. A rotating shaft 102 is rotatably connected to both ends of the base 101a. The lower ends of the first connecting plate 103 and the second connecting plate 104 are rotatably connected to both ends of the base 101a via the rotating shafts 102. An anti-slip pad 113 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the base 101a. When passengers enter or leave, their actions of stepping on the cover plate 101d cause pressure to be transmitted to the pressure detector 101c, enabling continuous monitoring of passenger flow. The pivot 102 of the base 101a allows the first connecting plate 103 and the second connecting plate 104 to rotate, facilitating storage. The fit between the cover plate 101d and the groove 101b protects the pressure detector 101c from direct external impacts, while ensuring the sensitivity and accuracy of the monitoring system. The anti-slip pad 113 at the bottom of the base 101a enhances the stability of the entire device, preventing slippage due to passenger movement and ensuring the reliability of data and the safety of the equipment.
[0028] Furthermore, the fixing assembly 110 includes a ball joint 110a. One end of the ball joint 110a is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the first connecting plate 103 and the second connecting plate 104, and the other end of the ball joint 110a is fixedly connected to a fixing plate 110b. The outer surface of the fixing plate 110b has mounting holes 110c. The fixing plate 110b is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the first connecting plate 103 and the second connecting plate 104 via the ball joint 110a. The flexible rotation capability of the ball joint 110a allows the fixing plate 110b to be freely adjusted at different angles, improving the convenience and stability of installation, adapting to various installation environments, and increasing the flexibility of installation and the applicability of the equipment.
[0029] During use, first place the device in a suitable position at the entrance or exit of the station. Then open the first connecting plate 103 and the second connecting plate 104 and place them vertically. Then fix the first connecting plate 103 and the second connecting plate 104 in place by fixing component 110 or magnet 111. Then connect the power supply through the power connection terminal 112 to start the electronic components. When someone passes by, the infrared light will be blocked. The difference between the data generated by the infrared transmitter 105 and the infrared receiver 106 is used to judge whether someone has passed by. Then the pressure monitoring component 101 is used to monitor whether someone has passed by. Then the camera 107 is used for confirmation, which can improve the detection accuracy of the device. The device can also be folded to improve the convenience of use.
[0030] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it.
