[0002] The existing monitoring facilities for highway toll collection equipment can monitor the internal software and hardware of the equipment and automatically handle malfunctions through edge computing and artificial intelligence technologies to ensure the normal operation of the equipment and software services, thus achieving a protective function.

[0003] The monitoring facility includes multiple monitoring devices that monitor the hardware and software of highway toll collection equipment. The hardware monitoring devices require long-term recording. During use, dust easily adheres to the monitoring lenses, leading to unclear video recordings. Additionally, in winter, with frequent fog, condensation easily forms on the lenses. If these droplets solidify, they cause ghosting and blurry images. Currently, the water sprayed during lens cleaning does not accelerate ice melting and may even increase the number of freezing points on the lenses. Therefore, this application proposes a monitoring device for highway toll collection equipment. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a monitoring device for highway toll collection equipment to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a monitoring device for highway toll collection equipment, comprising a monitoring equipment body and a lens rinsing pipe.

[0009] Preferably, the spraying component is connected to a drive mechanism for driving its forward and reverse rotation, the outer wall of the spraying component and the inner wall of the housing surround to form a feeding chamber, the feeding chamber is connected to a first opening in the spraying component, the lens spraying pipe is inserted into the feeding chamber, and the second opening in the spraying component is aligned with the monitoring lens.

[0010] Preferably, a lens scraper is mounted on the outer wall of the monitoring device body via a rotating shaft. The lens scraper is connected to a power unit for driving its forward and reverse rotation, and the length of the lens scraper is greater than the maximum distance between the monitoring lens and the rotating shaft.

[0011] Preferably, the connector is equipped with a first seal and a second seal, the first seal engaging with a first sealing groove in the can opening, and the second seal engaging with a second sealing groove in the can opening.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] 1. When cleaning the surveillance lens, this utility model starts the power pump, which can draw antifreeze from the antifreeze storage tank into the lens rinsing pipe. The antifreeze is then sprayed onto the surveillance lens through the lens rinsing pipe. This can remove dust from the surveillance lens.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] The monitoring facilities for highway toll collection equipment can monitor the internal software and hardware of the toll collection equipment, and automatically handle the faults through edge computing and artificial intelligence technology to ensure the normal use of equipment and software services, thus achieving a protective function.

[0025] The main modules of this facility are:

[0026] Edge computing module, alarm information push module, AI processing module.

[0027] The aforementioned facilities require monitoring of both the software and hardware within the highway toll collection equipment during the data acquisition process. Multiple monitoring devices are needed, as per [reference needed]. Figures 1-7 One type of monitoring device for highway toll collection equipment includes a monitoring equipment body 1 and a lens shower pipe 2. The monitoring equipment body 1 includes a monitoring lens 101, and one end of the lens shower pipe 2 is aligned with the monitoring lens 101.

[0028] It should be noted that the end of the lens shower pipe 2 is inserted into the shower connector 3. The shower connector 3 is connected to the outer wall of the monitoring equipment body 1 through a support plate. The shower connector 3 includes a housing 301. A spraying element 302 is provided inside the housing 301. The spraying element 302 is connected to a drive mechanism for driving it to rotate in both directions. The outer wall of the spraying element 302 and the inner wall of the housing 301 surround each other to form a feeding chamber. The feeding chamber is connected to the first opening 303 in the spraying element 302. The lens shower pipe 2 is inserted into the feeding chamber, and the second opening 304 in the spraying element 302 is aligned with the monitoring lens 101.

[0029] The drive mechanism drives the spraying component 302 to rotate, thereby adjusting the angle of the second opening 304 toward the monitoring lens 101. When there is cleaning fluid flowing in the shower connector 3, the cleaning fluid enters the feed chamber and is sprayed out through the second opening 304 in the spraying component 302. The second opening 304 sprays the cleaning fluid toward the monitoring lens 101, which can cover the entire area of ​​the monitoring lens 101 and some of its surrounding areas, washing away the dust adhering to the monitoring lens 101 and its surrounding areas.

[0030] It should be mentioned that a lens scraper 4 is installed on the outer wall of the monitoring device body 1 via a rotating shaft. The lens scraper 4 is connected to a power unit for driving its forward and reverse rotation. Specifically, the power unit drives the rotating shaft to rotate, which in turn drives the lens scraper 4 to rotate. The length of the lens scraper 4 is greater than the maximum distance between the monitoring lens 101 and the rotating shaft. In this way, the lens scraper 4 can cover the entire monitoring lens 101 during rotation, pushing away the cleaning fluid mixed with dust on the monitoring lens 101 and avoiding obstruction of the monitoring lens 101.

[0031] In a further embodiment, the monitoring device body 1 is mounted on a column 5, which is aligned with a portion of the hardware in the highway toll collection equipment that needs to be monitored. The column 5 is used to increase its height and coverage area. The lens shower pipe 2 is connected to a power pump 6 that drives the antifreeze to flow within the lens shower pipe 2. The lens shower pipe 2 is connected to a connector 7, which is detachably connected to the antifreeze storage tank 8 in the storage box 13. The storage box 13 includes a door with an opening and closing function and a lock installed on the door.

[0032] Specifically, the antifreeze storage tank 8 includes a tank opening 801 and a tank body. The tank opening 801 is connected to the connector 7 via threads, and the connector 7 is equipped with a first seal 802 and a second seal 803. The first seal 802 cooperates with a first sealing groove in the tank opening 801, and the second seal 803 cooperates with a second sealing groove in the tank opening 801. The first seal 802 and the second seal 803 are installed at the connection point between the tank opening 801 and the connector 7 to seal the connection point and prevent leakage. At the same time, the connector 7 is connected to a hose, which is inserted into the antifreeze storage tank 8.

[0033] More specifically, the lower end of the antifreeze storage tank 8 is provided with a tray 10, which is inserted into the guide plate 11 in the storage box 13. The guide plate 11 is T-shaped, and the T-shaped groove in the tray 10 can slide up and down relative to the guide plate 11. A spring is installed at the lower end of the tray 10, which is used to give the tray 10 an upward force. An installation plate 12 is provided on the upper side of the tray 10, and the antifreeze storage tank 8 is put into the installation plate 12. A crescent-shaped support block 9 is provided on the guide plate 11 at the position corresponding to the antifreeze storage tank 8. The arc-shaped groove inside the crescent-shaped support block 9 fits against the outer wall of the antifreeze storage tank 8.

[0034] The front end of the antifreeze storage tank 8 rests against the crescent-shaped support block 9. When the door of the storage box 13 is closed, it will press down on the rear end, and the antifreeze storage tank 8 will be completely retracted into the mounting plate 12, which can prevent its relative displacement in the left and right directions. At the same time, the force given by the bottom support plate 10 and the spring can keep it in close contact with the connector 7. This can ensure the stability of the antifreeze storage tank 8 inside the storage box 13 and prevent it from shaking during the process of extracting antifreeze.

[0035] Working principle:

[0036] The monitoring device proposed in this technology monitors the hardware in highway toll collection equipment. The device includes a monitoring equipment body 1, which can capture and record the working status of the hardware.

[0037] During use, dust will adhere to the outer surface of the monitoring lens 101 in the main body 1 of the monitoring equipment. Therefore, the monitoring lens 101 needs to be cleaned. Start the power pump 6, which can draw antifreeze from the antifreeze storage tank 8 into the lens rinsing pipe 2. The antifreeze is then sprayed onto the monitoring lens 101 through the lens rinsing pipe 2. This can remove the dust from the monitoring lens 101. At the same time, when the monitoring lens 101 freezes, spraying antifreeze can accelerate the melting of the ice on the lens, allowing the monitoring lens 101 to restore its monitoring performance more quickly.

[0038] The antifreeze storage tank 8 is placed in the storage box 13 at the bottom of the column 5, so replacing the antifreeze storage tank 8 does not require the use of ladders or other equipment, which is quite convenient.

[0039] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
