Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of intelligent fishing gear technology, and in particular to a long-range wireless intelligent float and intelligent float system. Background Technology

[0002] As is well known, smart floats are often equipped with microcontrollers and wireless communication modules. When a smart float detects a fish biting the hook, the microcontroller controls the wireless communication module to transmit the bite information to smart devices such as mobile phones and tablets to remind the angler that a fish has bitten the hook.

[0003] Existing smart floats typically use Bluetooth or 2.4G wireless communication technology with custom protocols at a frequency of 2.4GHz. Regardless of whether Bluetooth or other 2.4G protocols are used, the high frequency and low power of these frequencies make them susceptible to obstruction by objects or people, resulting in short communication distances. This is especially true when the float is in water, where the water's surface further reduces the communication distance between the phone and the float. Utility Model Content

[0024] To explain in detail the technical content, objectives, and effects of this utility model, the following description is provided in conjunction with the embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0025] Please refer to Figure 1 This utility model provides a long-range wireless intelligent float, which includes a float foot 1, a float body 2, and a float tail 3 connected in sequence. The float tail 3 has a receiving cavity, and the receiving cavity has a control panel and a gyroscope. The control panel has a power module, an MCU controller, and a wireless communication module. The power module is electrically connected to the MCU controller, the gyroscope, and the wireless communication module, and the MCU controller is electrically connected to the gyroscope and the wireless communication module, respectively. The communication frequency range of the wireless communication module is 300-450MHz.

[0026] As described above, the beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: In this invention, a power module, an MCU controller (such as an MCU), and a wireless communication module are installed in the cavity within the float tip. When the smart float detects a fish biting the hook, the MCU controller acquires the collected bite information and controls the wireless communication module to transmit the bite information to a receiving device such as a mobile phone or tablet to alert the angler that a fish has bitten. In this invention, under the same transmission power, because the wireless communication module of this invention has a communication frequency range of 300-450MHz, its communication distance is longer than that of a 2.4GHz wireless communication module, and its resistance to environmental and multipath interference is stronger. In practical applications, its communication distance can reach 100 meters, while the communication distance of a 2.4GHz wireless communication module is only 50 meters, greatly improving the communication distance and enhancing the user experience.

[0027] Furthermore, in the long-range wireless intelligent float described in this utility model, the power module includes a storage battery, and the control panel is provided with a charging and discharging control circuit, which is connected to the MCU controller and the storage battery respectively.

[0028] In practical applications, this power module includes a battery. The battery can be charged via a charging control circuit on the control panel, thus enabling wireless charging of the power module. In practice, placing the float tip or long-cast wireless smart float on the corresponding float charging base allows for wireless charging of the rechargeable battery.

[0029] Furthermore, in the long-range wireless intelligent float described in this utility model, the power module also includes a charging indicator light, which is electrically connected to the MCU controller.

[0030] In practical applications, this charging indicator light can be used to indicate different states during the charging process of the power module, such as displaying different colors of light when charging is complete and charging is in progress.

[0031] Furthermore, the long-range wireless intelligent float of this utility model also includes a warning light, which is disposed in the receiving cavity and is electrically connected to the MCU controller and the power module respectively.

[0032] In practical applications, this warning light can be used to provide a visual indication when a fish bites the hook, thus alerting anglers to the presence of a fish.

[0033] Furthermore, the long-range wireless intelligent float described in this utility model also includes a speaker, which is disposed in the receiving cavity and is electrically connected to the MCU controller and the power module respectively.

[0034] In practical applications, this speaker can be used to provide an audible alert when a fish bites the hook, reminding anglers that a fish has taken the bait.

[0035] Furthermore, in the long-range wireless intelligent float described in this utility model, the wireless communication module is a 433MHz wireless communication module, which is used to transmit wireless communication signals with a frequency of 433MHz.

[0036] Furthermore, in the long-range wireless intelligent float of this utility model, the float tail includes a middle shell 32 and an outer shell 31. The middle shell is disposed within the outer shell, and the receiving cavity is disposed within the middle shell. The float body has a sealed cavity, and one end of the float body has a port communicating with the sealed cavity. One end of the middle shell extends into the port and is threadedly connected to the port. One end of the outer shell is bonded to one end of the float body.

[0037] As described above, one end of the float body has a port communicating with the sealed cavity. One end of the middle shell extends into the port and is threadedly connected to the port, facilitating quick removal of the middle shell 32 from the float body for easy replacement. Simultaneously, one end of the outer shell is bonded to one end of the float body, ensuring the sealing of the sealed cavity, receiving cavity, etc., preventing water ingress and ensuring the safe and effective use of the power module, etc.

[0038] Furthermore, in the long-range wireless intelligent float described in this utility model, a sealing ring is provided on the peripheral wall of the end of the middle shell that extends into the port.

[0039] As can be seen from the above description, a sealing ring is provided on the peripheral wall of one end of the middle shell extending into the port to facilitate sealing.

[0040] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, in order to facilitate installation and fixation, and at the same time reduce production and manufacturing costs, in actual use, the aforementioned receiving cavity opened in the middle shell can penetrate the design of the middle shell along the extension direction of the middle shell; and, during installation, the control panel and gyroscope set in the receiving cavity can be integrated and mounted on a mounting plate. Subsequently, the staff will set the mounting plate in the receiving cavity of the middle shell and glue and fix it to complete the installation. This can greatly improve the production and manufacturing efficiency, and the installation and fixation of the electrical unit of the long-range wireless intelligent float can be completed in one go.

[0041] Accordingly, since the control panel and gyroscope are both located in the cavity of the middle shell, the cavity can be a cylindrical cavity with a circular cross-sectional area. That is, the mounting plate can also be a circular mounting plate to improve installation reliability. At the same time, the diameter of the cylindrical cavity is small, so the integration of the electrical components of the control panel is very high, which is also significantly different from the existing traditional smart floats.

[0042] Accordingly, another objective of this utility model is to provide an intelligent float system, which includes a wireless receiving device and a long-range wireless intelligent float as described above. The wireless receiving device includes a wireless receiving module, and the wireless receiving module and the wireless communication module of the long-range wireless intelligent float establish a wireless communication connection through a 300-450MHz wireless communication signal.

[0043] In practical applications, the receiving device can be a mobile phone, tablet, or other various types of devices. By setting up a corresponding wireless receiving module in the receiving device, the wireless receiving module can establish a wireless communication connection with the wireless communication module of the long-cast wireless smart float. This allows the receiving device to provide corresponding prompts in cases such as when a fish bites the hook, thus reminding the angler that a fish has taken the bait.

[0044] Furthermore, in the intelligent float system described in this utility model, the wireless receiving device further includes an audible and visual alarm module, which is electrically connected to the wireless receiving module to receive alarm commands from the wireless receiving module and to trigger an audible and visual alarm.

[0045] In practical applications, when a fish bites the hook, the wireless receiver can provide corresponding alerts to remind the angler. These alerts can be issued via sound and light alarms, vibration alerts, or even displayed on the wireless receiver's screen, such as a pop-up notification.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 1 Embodiment 1 of this utility model is as follows: a long-range wireless intelligent float, comprising a float foot, a float body, and a float tail connected in sequence. The float tail includes a middle shell and an outer shell. The middle shell is threadedly connected to the float body. Specifically, one end of the middle shell has an external thread, and the float body has an internal thread adapted to the external thread for threaded connection. The outer shell has an overall cylindrical shape, and the middle shell is disposed within the outer shell, which is bonded to one end of the float body.

[0047] In this embodiment, the inner shell contains a receiving cavity, within which a control panel and a gyroscope are housed. The control panel includes a power module, an MCU controller, a wireless communication module, a warning light, and a speaker. The power module supplies power to the components within the receiving cavity, such as the MCU controller, wireless communication module, warning light, gyroscope, and speaker, through electrical connection. The power module includes a battery and a charging indicator light. The control panel has a charging / discharging control circuit connected to both the MCU controller and the battery. The charging indicator light displays a color when the rechargeable battery is fully charged.

[0048] In this embodiment, the MCU controller is connected to the aforementioned wireless communication module, warning light, speaker, and sensor. During use, the sensor collects information about a fish biting the hook. When the sensor detects a fish biting, it sends the information to the MCU controller, which then performs corresponding actions. Because the MCU controller is connected to the wireless communication module, warning light, and speaker, it can control the wireless communication module to transmit the bite information to receiving devices such as mobile phones and tablets. It can also control the warning light to illuminate and the speaker to emit an audible alert. It should be noted that the communication frequency range of the wireless communication module is 300-450MHz; for example, a 433MHz wireless communication module could be used.

[0049] In other words, the intelligent float system based on the wireless intelligent float and wireless receiving device designed in this utility model has the following three significant advantages:

[0050] (1) The wireless intelligent float and the wireless receiving device transmit wireless communication signals in the range of 300-450MHz. Its transmission performance is far superior to the communication mode of the 2.4G protocol, and it can ensure a communication distance of 100m.

[0051] (2) When fishing at a distance, users do not need to observe the float. They can use the wireless receiver in their hands to judge the fish situation and confirm whether they have caught fish.

[0052] (3) Users do not need to pay attention to the wireless receiver in their hands. They can determine that they have caught a fish simply by hearing an alarm from the wireless receiver, which greatly reduces the burden of fishing for users.

[0053] In summary, the long-range wireless intelligent float and intelligent float system provided by this utility model are as follows: This utility model adopts a wireless communication module. Since the communication frequency range of the wireless communication module is 300-450MHz, under the same transmission power, the wireless communication module has a longer communication distance than the 2.4GHz wireless communication module and stronger resistance to environmental and multipath interference. In practical applications, its communication distance can reach 100 meters, while the communication distance of the 2.4GHz wireless communication module is only 50 meters, which greatly improves the communication distance and enhances the user experience.

[0054] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent modifications made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
