Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aviation ground support equipment technology, specifically a portable emergency airport navigation lighting equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional navigation lights face several significant technical bottlenecks. First, their protective performance is inadequate. Strong airflow is generated during helicopter takeoff and landing, and the impact of rain, snow, and raindrops from high-speed drone flights necessitates higher levels of protection from these factors. However, most existing devices use contact charging, which has poor sealing performance, easily leading to short circuits or damage to the LED modules. Second, their structural strength is insufficient. During field transport, navigation lights are frequently damaged by bumps and collisions, resulting in shell breakage and loosening of internal components, thus affecting the accuracy of helicopter takeoff and landing guidance. Third, charging methods are inconvenient. Traditional navigation lights rely on cable charging, which imposes many limitations in field environments and results in poor reliability. Utility Model Content

[0003] Therefore, this utility model effectively improves the reliability and practicality of the device in complex environments by integrating wireless charging technology, strengthening waterproof design, and optimizing structural strength.

[0004] This utility model provides a portable emergency airport navigation light equipment, including a box with a lid, a box battery installed inside the box, a navigation light, and a PCB board. The bottom of the PCB board has a support block, and several charging transmitting coils, a buffer positioning frame, and an inner box are sequentially installed on top of the PCB board. The inner box has several storage compartments, and the navigation light is installed in each compartment. A charging receiving coil is located at the bottom of the navigation light, and the PCB board is electrically connected to the charging transmitting coils. This structural design allows the navigation light to be wirelessly charged inside the box, solving problems such as interface wear and poor contact that may exist in traditional charging methods, improving the convenience and reliability of charging, and also enhancing the overall protective performance of the equipment.

[0005] Furthermore, the container is equipped with a telescopic pull rod on the bottom side, wheels on the rear bottom side, and handles on the front and left and right sides. This enhances the equipment's adaptability to complex field environments, allowing operators to easily transport the equipment to different airport locations for deployment and use.

[0006] Furthermore, the enclosure is equipped with waterproof and dustproof AC charging ports and solar charging ports, which are electrically connected to the PCB board. This design provides multiple charging methods: AC charging can be used when available, while solar charging can be used in outdoor environments without AC power, improving the equipment's energy acquisition capabilities and operational flexibility. The waterproof and dustproof design ensures normal operation of the charging ports in harsh environments, extending their lifespan and reducing the risk of malfunctions caused by environmental factors.

[0007] Furthermore, a photovoltaic panel buffer box is provided inside the box cover, and the photovoltaic panel buffer box contains foldable flexible photovoltaic panels. The flexible photovoltaic panels can be unfolded in the field to absorb solar energy for charging, further enhancing the equipment's solar charging capability. The photovoltaic panel buffer box not only protects the photovoltaic panels but also effectively prevents the navigation lights from becoming loose and damaged during transportation and storage, making full use of the internal space of the box.

[0008] Space utilization optimization: The photovoltaic panels are integrated into the inside of the box cover, making full use of the internal space of the box, so that the equipment has solar charging function without increasing the volume too much.

[0009] Furthermore, the enclosure is equipped with a latch that locks onto the lid, and the lid and enclosure are sealed together by a sealing strip. This design effectively prevents dust and water from entering the enclosure, protecting the electronic components and equipment inside from external environmental influences, thus improving the equipment's protection level and ensuring its normal operation in harsh outdoor environments.

[0010] Furthermore, the inner casing also houses a remote control, a charger, a mounting bracket, a spare battery, and a controller. The mounting bracket has a grounding pin for securing navigation lights in the field. The charger is used to charge the casing battery and the spare battery. The controller can centrally control multiple navigation lights.

[0011] Furthermore, the PCB board integrates a LoRa communication module, enabling cluster control via a controller and providing power monitoring and fault diagnosis functions. The LoRa communication module allows for long-range, low-power wireless communication, enabling the controller to centrally control and manage multiple navigation lights. The power monitoring function provides real-time information on the power levels of the navigation lights and batteries, facilitating timely charging or battery replacement. The fault diagnosis function quickly locates and resolves navigation light malfunctions, improving equipment maintenance efficiency and reliability. This gives the equipment intelligent management and control capabilities, reducing manual operation and improving the operational stability and safety of the navigation lights.

[0012] Furthermore, the navigation light includes a lamp, a housing, a lamp cover, an antenna, a button, a display screen, a navigation light handle, a main board, a battery, and a charging receiving coil. The main board is electrically connected to the button, display screen, battery, and charging receiving coil. The antenna and navigation light handle are mounted on the outside of the housing. The main board, battery, and charging receiving coil are all sealed inside the housing. The main board has a communication module that can connect to a remote control signal, allowing the navigation light to be controlled via the button or remote control. The lamp includes a lens, a waterproof ring, and LEDs. The LEDs are installed inside the lens, and the waterproof ring surrounds the lens. The lamp cover secures the lens and waterproof ring to the top of the housing. This structural design ensures normal LED illumination, while the waterproof ring enhances the lamp's waterproof performance, preventing moisture from entering the lamp and damaging the LEDs, thus improving the lamp's lifespan and reliability. The lens design focuses and diffuses the light emitted by the LEDs, improving flight guidance and meeting the takeoff and landing guidance needs of field airports.

[0013] Compared with existing technologies, this utility model adopts wireless charging technology, freeing users from the constraints of traditional cables and making it more convenient to use. At the same time, through an integrated waterproof design, it forms an IP67-level protection system, which can effectively resist the intrusion of rainwater and sand, and avoid short circuit failures caused by exposed interfaces in traditional navigation lights.

[0014] The equipment's structural protection performance has been significantly improved. With silicone rubber seals, waterproof rings, waterproof buttons, and an IP67 protection rating, it can withstand the impact of strong airflow during helicopter takeoff and landing, as well as immersion in heavy rain. The shell, made of aluminum alloy and polycarbonate materials with reinforcing ribs, has 40% increased impact resistance, enabling it to withstand airflow disturbances during high-speed drone takeoff and landing, as well as bumps and collisions during field transportation.

[0015] In terms of intelligent control, it integrates a LORA wireless communication module, enabling remote control and supporting cluster management of multiple devices. The motherboard's integrated power monitoring and fault diagnosis system can automatically identify abnormal conditions such as battery overvoltage and LED overheating, triggering protective shutdown and sending alarm signals, thus improving the safety of aviation operations.
