Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of fishing gear, in particular to an electronic intelligent sinker. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the prior art, traditional fishing sinkers are mainly used to provide sinking force for fishing gear, helping to sink fishing hooks and baits into water and ensuring their stability at appropriate water depth. The sinkers are usually made of metal materials such as lead, with a certain weight to resist the influence of water flow. However, these traditional sinkers do not integrate other functions such as water environment monitoring or fish attraction, so anglers can only rely on experience and observation to determine the best fishing time and location. In addition, anglers need to carry a variety of additional equipment such as water temperature meters, oxygen sensors and sound fish attractors, which increases the weight and complexity of the equipment, reducing the convenience and efficiency of use.

[0003] Although the existing technical solutions can meet the basic fishing needs, there are some obvious shortcomings. First, the traditional sinker has a single function, only as a physical weight, and does not fully exploit its potential in intelligent fishing. Although some modern fishing equipment has begun to integrate some auxiliary functions, they usually require additional batteries and sensors, increasing the complexity and inconvenience of the fishing gear. Second, existing fishing equipment often cannot monitor real-time changes in water environment such as temperature and oxygen content, which makes it difficult for anglers to obtain optimal environmental information in real time during fishing and make accurate decisions based on real-time conditions of the water area. At the same time, traditional fish attractors rely on manual adjustment or fixed frequency sound waves, which are not sufficient to effectively induce different fish species according to their hearing characteristics. Therefore, the existing technology has failed to effectively integrate environmental monitoring and fish attraction functions into a compact and easy-to-use device.

[0004] In view of these shortcomings, it is of great significance and value to develop an electronic sinker that integrates intelligent functions. CONTENT OF THE INVENTION

[0005] The purpose of the present application is to at least overcome one of the deficiencies of the prior art, and to provide an electronic intelligent sinker. The piezoelectric ceramic sheet used in the electronic intelligent sinker can utilize the small electric charge signals generated by water flow impact or fish biting the hook to automatically identify environmental changes and fish biting the hook, thereby improving the success rate of fishing. At the same time, the integration of temperature and oxygen content sensors can monitor water temperature and oxygen levels in real time, providing anglers with comprehensive environmental information.

[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the application discloses an electronic intelligent lead sinker, which comprises a body with a wire passing channel for fishing line, a weight detachably mounted on the body, a piezoelectric ceramic piece arranged in the body, a control board also arranged in the body, a temperature sensor connected with the control board, an oxygen content sensor connected with the control board, and a battery connected with the control board and used for supplying power to the control board, wherein the piezoelectric ceramic piece is connected with the temperature sensor and the oxygen content sensor and the control board, the temperature sensor and the oxygen content sensor respectively send water temperature and water oxygen information to the control board, the piezoelectric ceramic piece is connected with the control board and feeds back vibration signals or is controlled by the control board to vibrate; the temperature sensor is directly / indirectly in contact with an external environment temperature guide and collects environment temperature; the oxygen content sensor is directly in contact with an external environment and collects environment oxygen content.

[0007] As an optional technical solution, a clamping part for compressing the fishing line passing through the wire passing channel is mounted on the body. Preferably, an opening position for exposing the fishing line is formed on the body, and one side of the clamping part is hinged on the opening position of the body and is fixed with the opening position through a buckle structure.

[0008] As an optional technical solution, a waterproof charging port electrically connected with the control board and used for charging the battery is arranged on the body, and the charging port is provided with a waterproof structure or a waterproof sealing plug.

[0009] As an optional technical solution, the control board receives and processes the environment temperature and oxygen content data and controls the piezoelectric ceramic piece based on the data.

[0010] As an optional technical solution, the sensing end of the temperature sensor and the oxygen content sensor is exposed from the body.

[0011] As an optional technical solution, at least one end edge of the piezoelectric ceramic piece is fixed on the body, so that at least the central part of the piezoelectric ceramic piece has a free degree of activity, and the piezoelectric ceramic piece can sense vibration signals and actively vibrate.

[0012] As an optional technical solution, an MCU and a transmitting circuit capable of transmitting wireless signals are arranged on the control board, the transmitting circuit is connected with the MCU and controlled by the MCU to emit signals of a specified frequency to the outside, so as to prompt the fish to bite the hook.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the application has at least one beneficial effect:

[0014] 1. Intelligent environmental monitoring: The electronic intelligent sinker of the present application integrates temperature and oxygen content sensors, enabling real-time monitoring of water temperature and oxygen levels, providing anglers with comprehensive environmental information.

[0026] Referring to the accompanying drawings Figure 1 and 2 The present embodiment discloses an electronic intelligent sinker designed to improve fishing efficiency and simplify operation by integrating environmental monitoring, fish luring, and hook biting sensing functions. The electronic intelligent sinker is mainly composed of a body 1, a weight block 2, a piezoelectric ceramic sheet 3, a control board 4, a temperature sensor 5, an oxygen content sensor 6, a battery 7, a pressing block 8, and a charging port 9, etc. The various modules are organically combined and cooperate with each other to ensure reliable operation of the device in complex water environment.

[0027] In the above structure, the body 1 is made of high-strength engineering plastic or aluminum alloy material, and the outside is specially treated to ensure corrosion resistance and impact resistance. The inside is designed with a special cavity to accommodate electronic components, ensuring that all modules can be securely installed and effectively operated. The weight block 2 of the sinker adopts a detachable design, and the fisherman can replace different weight blocks according to fishing needs to adapt to different fishing conditions in different water areas. The weight block 2 is usually made of lead blocks to achieve the weight of the sinker to meet the use needs of different water depths. The weight block 2 is firmly connected to the body 1 through the pressing block 8 to ensure that the fishing line will not come off when under stress, thereby enhancing the stability and reliability of the device during fishing.

[0028] Specifically, the pressing block 8 is used to ensure the firm connection between the body 1 and the fishing line. By being pressed with the fishing line, it makes the fishing line not to be separated from the body 1 due to the pulling of water flow or other external forces, thereby enhancing the stability of the device during fishing. On the pressing surface of the pressing block 8 and the fishing line, a protruding structure is generally arranged to improve the clamping force, so as to ensure that the fishing line is firmly connected with the body 1 and can withstand the external forces in the water flow or during fishing, thereby ensuring the stability and safety of the fishing line during fishing.

[0029] It should be understood that the whole body 1 is designed to be watertight and waterproof, ensuring the reliability in underwater environment.

[0030] In the above composition, the temperature sensor 5 and the oxygen content sensor 6 are respectively used to collect environmental information of the water area. These sensors are directly in contact with the water body. The temperature sensor 5 usually adopts a thermocouple or an NTC resistor, which can monitor the water temperature at intervals and convert it into an electrical signal to be transmitted to the control board 4; the oxygen content sensor 6 measures the concentration of dissolved oxygen in water at intervals through the electrochemical principle, and converts it into an electrical signal to be transmitted to the MCU (Micro Control Unit) of the control board 4 for processing. The control board 4 determines whether to enter the fish attracting mode or other working modes according to these environmental data.

[0031] It should be noted that the working principle of the temperature sensor 5 and the oxygen content sensor 6 is common knowledge to those skilled in the art, so it will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0032] In the above composition, the control board 4 is the core of the electronic intelligent sinker, which bears the decision-making and control functions of the whole system. The control board 4 is integrated with an MCU, which is responsible for receiving and processing the signals of the temperature sensor 5 and the oxygen content sensor 6. The MCU will determine whether the water area is suitable for fishing according to the set algorithm and threshold value, and decide whether to start the fish attracting function. In the case that the water area environment is suitable, the MCU will instruct the piezoelectric ceramic sheet 3 to enter the fish attracting working mode, and periodically generate vibration signals.

[0033] It should be noted that the fish attracting function is not continuously working, but intermittently running, i.e. the vibration is started to attract fish in a specific time interval. The specific vibration frequency and intensity are adjusted by the driving module in the control board 4, which can automatically optimize the vibration parameters according to the environmental factors such as water temperature and oxygen content, so as to improve the effect of fish attracting.

[0034] In addition, the piezoelectric ceramic sheet 3 generates electric charges under the action of water flow or external vibration by its piezoelectric effect. During operation, when the external mechanical vibration (such as water flow or fish activity) acts on the piezoelectric ceramic sheet 3, the electric charges in the ceramic sheet will be displaced, generating a corresponding electric signal. The MCU of the control board 4 samples and processes the signal through an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). Specifically, the weak vibration caused by the fish biting the hook will also be converted into an electric signal by the piezoelectric ceramic sheet 3 and transmitted to the control board 4. The MCU in the control board 4 determines whether it is the behavior of the fish biting the hook according to the signal, and transmits the signal to the angler's receiving device (not shown in the figure) through the wireless module integrated in the control board 4. There are a lot of mature technologies that can be directly used in the selection of wireless modules, for example: the wireless signal usually uses low-power Bluetooth (BLE) or Wi-Fi technology for transmission. The wireless module 4 will send a predetermined frequency or coded signal as a feedback signal of the fish biting the hook. When the receiving device receives the signal, it will give a visual or audible prompt to remind the angler to collect the line in time. In this way, the angler can react at the moment when the fish bites the hook, greatly improving the success rate of fishing.

[0035] In addition to the fish attracting and hook biting sensing functions, the control board 4 also has a battery management module 7 that monitors the charging state of the battery 7 in real time to ensure that the battery 7 will not be damaged due to overcharging or overdischarging. The connection between the battery management module 7 and the battery 7 is designed to be waterproof, ensuring that the charging port 9 is well sealed to prevent water from entering. The charging module 9 supports charging the battery 7 through a USB interface, and the charging process is monitored by the control board 4 to ensure safe and efficient charging. During charging, the system automatically detects the battery level and adjusts the working mode to extend the use time of the device.

[0036] Based on the above structure, further, the battery 7 provides the required power for the entire electronic intelligent sinker system. In order to facilitate the use of anglers, the battery 7 is designed to be rechargeable, and the charging port 9 is designed as a waterproof interface to ensure the safety of the charging process in a humid environment.

[0037] The battery 7 provides power for the control board 4, temperature sensor 5, oxygen content sensor 6, piezoelectric ceramic sheet 3, and wireless module 4. When the battery power is low, the control board 4 will automatically enter a low-power mode to extend the battery usage time. In addition, the angler can conveniently charge the battery 7 through the charging port 9 to ensure the stability of the device during long-term use.

[0038] In summary, the electronic intelligent sinker of the present embodiment can monitor the water environment in real time and automatically adjust the working state. The fish attracting function is periodically run, which can simulate the activity of fish school in water, thereby effectively attracting fish; and the hook biting sensing function can timely feedback the fish biting hook signal, helping the fisherman to quickly respond. These functions greatly improve the fishing efficiency and reduce the dependence on the environment and time in the traditional fishing method.

[0039] It should be particularly emphasized that the circuit design, working process and working mode described herein are only detailed descriptions of one specific implementation, and do not limit the protection scope of the present application. The specific circuit design, control mode and working process can be adjusted and optimized according to actual needs to meet the functional requirements in different scenarios. These design details are intended to help those skilled in the art better understand and implement the present application, but do not limit the specific implementation of the present application.

[0040] Although exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure have been described, those skilled in the art will understand that various changes and modifications can be made to the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure without departing from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure in essence. Therefore, all changes and modifications are included in the protection scope of the present disclosure defined by the claims. The present disclosure is defined by the additional claims, and the equivalents of these claims are also included.
