Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of driving simulation technology, and in particular to an anti-vertigo driving simulator. Background Technology
[0002] A driving simulator is a driving simulation device. It uses virtual reality simulation technology to create a virtual driving training environment. Trainees interact with the virtual environment through the simulator's control panel to conduct driving training. Driving simulators can help new drivers become more proficient at driving and reduce traffic accidents. However, when using driving simulators for training, drivers often experience dizziness due to the constantly changing simulator scene and driver fatigue, which can affect safe driving and easily lead to traffic accidents.
[0003] Existing driving simulators typically use cameras to monitor the driver's state. By judging the driver's eye state, they determine whether the driver is experiencing dizziness and then play white noise to alert the driver and eliminate dizziness. However, existing cameras are usually fixedly installed on the driving simulator. When driving, the driver usually needs to turn their head to observe changes in the surrounding environment. The existing method cannot effectively monitor the driver's state, which can easily lead to blind spots and fail to effectively alert the driver and eliminate dizziness in time, which can easily cause traffic accidents. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an anti-dizziness driving simulator that allows for more flexible camera adjustment, better monitoring of the driver's eye condition, and timely elimination of the driver's dizziness.
[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0006] An anti-vertigo driving simulator includes a simulator body, an arc-shaped outer shell detachably provided on the upper end of the simulator body, a limiting slide opening provided at the end of the arc-shaped outer shell away from the simulator body, an arc-shaped limiting rod provided inside the arc-shaped outer shell, and a support shell slidably connected inside the arc-shaped outer shell and slidably connected to the arc-shaped limiting rod and the limiting slide opening;
[0007] The support shell has a first limiting port that is slidably connected to the arc-shaped limiting rod at one end. A first roller that is rotatably connected to the arc-shaped limiting rod is rotatably connected to one end of the first limiting port. A second roller that is rotatably connected to the arc-shaped limiting rod is rotatably connected to the other end of the first limiting port. An arc-shaped rack is provided at one end of the arc-shaped outer shell. A gear that meshes with the rack is rotatably connected to one end of the support shell near the arc-shaped rack. A first motor for driving the gear to rotate is installed inside the support shell.
[0008] The support shell has a second limiting port at the end away from the first limiting port. A spherical limiting block is rotatably connected inside the second limiting port. A limiting hole is formed on the outer side of the spherical limiting block away from the second limiting port. A camera is installed inside the limiting hole. A sliding groove is formed at one end inside the support shell. An electromagnet is installed at one end inside the sliding groove. A slider is slidably connected inside the sliding groove. A magnetic block is installed at the end of the slider near the electromagnet. A horizontally arranged drive rod is rotatably connected inside the support shell. A connecting rod is rotatably connected to the end of the drive rod near the spherical limiting block. A second motor for driving the drive rod to rotate is installed at the upper end of the slider. A current regulator for controlling the current flowing into the electromagnet is installed inside the support shell. Players are arranged at equal intervals inside the simulator body near the arc-shaped outer shell.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the arc-shaped shell is installed on the simulator body during use. While the driver is driving the simulator, the camera monitors the driver's eyes. When dizziness is detected, white noise is played as a reminder. When the driver's head turns, the camera, to better detect the driver's eyes, activates the first motor. The first motor drives the gears to rotate, moving the gears relative to the arc-shaped rack, which in turn moves the support shell relative to the limiting port. The support shell then moves the first limiting port relative to the arc-shaped limit. The lever moves, the arc-shaped limiting lever drives the first and second rollers to rotate, the support shell moves, causing the camera to move, the current regulator controls the flow of different currents into the electromagnet, thereby changing the magnitude of the attraction between the electromagnet and the magnetic block, which in turn changes the sliding distance of the slider. The slider drives the second motor to move, the second motor drives the drive rod to move, the drive rod drives the connecting rod to rotate relative to it, the connecting rod causes the spherical limiting block to deflect relative to the second limiting port, the second motor starts, which can drive the spherical limiting block to rotate at different angles, thus allowing the camera to rotate more flexibly and better monitor the driver's eyes.
[0010] A further feature of this invention is as follows: a first clamping plate is vertically arranged at one end of the arc-shaped outer shell near the simulator body; a horizontally arranged threaded rod is rotatably connected to the upper end of the first clamping plate; a vertically arranged second clamping plate is threadedly connected to the outer side of the threaded rod; multiple sleeves are evenly spaced at one end of the first clamping plate near the second clamping plate; multiple limiting support rods, corresponding one-to-one with the sleeves and slidably connected, are evenly spaced at one end of the second clamping plate near the first clamping plate; and a knob is provided at the free end of the threaded rod.
[0011] A further feature of this invention is that a spring is provided between the magnetic block and the electromagnet, and the force generated between the electromagnet and the magnetic block is always greater than the elastic force of the spring.
[0012] A further feature of this invention is that the upper end of the slider is provided with a fixing sleeve for fixing the second motor.
[0013] A further feature of this invention is that one end of the arc-shaped outer shell is provided with a power cord for connecting to a power source to provide power.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] This system allows for better and more convenient monitoring of the driver's eye condition, thus promptly eliminating dizziness. A first motor drives a gear to rotate, which moves along an arc-shaped rack. Because the first and second rollers restrict the rotation of the support shell, the support shell moves left and right along the arc-shaped outer shell, causing the camera to move left and right. A current regulator adjusts the current flowing through the electromagnet, changing the attraction between the electromagnet and the magnetic block. This attraction changes the sliding distance of the slider. The change in the driving rod's movement distance, in turn, causes the spherical limit block to deflect at a different angle relative to the second limit port via a connecting rod. The second motor then drives the spherical limit block to rotate, allowing the camera to rotate more flexibly with it, thus better monitoring the driver's eye condition. White noise is then played through a player to promptly eliminate the driver's dizziness. Attached Figure Description

They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0023] Furthermore, terms such as "horizontal" and "vertical" do not imply that components must be absolutely horizontal or suspended, but rather that they can be slightly tilted. For example, "horizontal" simply means that its direction is more horizontal than "vertical," and does not mean that the structure must be completely horizontal, but can be slightly tilted.
[0024] In the description of this utility model, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set up," "connected," and "linked" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection, a direct connection, or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; or they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.
[0025] Example, refer to Figure 1-4An anti-vertigo driving simulator includes a simulator body 1. A detachable arc-shaped outer shell 2 is horizontally arranged on the upper front side of the simulator body 1. A first clamping plate 26 is vertically arranged in the middle of the front end of the arc-shaped outer shell 2. A horizontally arranged threaded rod 30 is rotatably connected to the middle of the upper front side of the first clamping plate 26. A vertically arranged second clamping plate 29 is threadedly connected to the outer side of the threaded rod 30. Sleeves 27 are horizontally arranged on both the left and right sides of the upper front end of the first clamping plate 26. A limiting support rod 28 is slidably connected to the corresponding sleeve 27 at both ends of the upper rear end of the second clamping plate 29. A knob 31 is provided at the front end of the threaded rod 30, which facilitates the disassembly and installation of the arc-shaped outer shell 2. A power cord 32 for connecting to a power source is provided in the middle of the upper end of the arc-shaped outer shell 2.
[0026] The rear end of the arc-shaped outer shell 2 is provided with a limiting slide 3. An arc-shaped limiting rod 11 is horizontally arranged inside the arc-shaped outer shell 2. A support shell 4 is slidably connected inside the arc-shaped outer shell 2, which is slidably connected to the arc-shaped limiting rod 11 and the limiting slide 3. An arc-shaped rack 5 is provided on the front side of the lower end inside the arc-shaped outer shell 2. A gear 6 that meshes with the arc-shaped rack 5 is rotatably connected to the lower end of the support shell 4. A first motor 7 for driving the gear 6 to rotate is installed inside the support shell 4, which can easily drive the support shell 4 to slide left and right relative to the arc-shaped sliding rod. The front end of the support shell 4 is provided with a first limiting port 8 that is slidably connected to the arc-shaped limiting rod 11. A first roller 9 that is slidably connected to the arc-shaped limiting rod 11 is rotatably connected to the front side of the lower end inside the first limiting port 8. A second roller 10 that is slidably connected to the arc-shaped limiting rod 11 is rotatably connected to the rear side of the lower end inside the first limiting port 8, which can prevent the support shell 4 from rotating relative to the arc-shaped outer shell 2.
[0027] The rear end of the support shell 4 is provided with a second limiting port 18. A spherical limiting block 15 is rotatably connected inside the second limiting port 18. A limiting hole 16 is provided on the outer side of the spherical limiting block 15 away from the arc-shaped shell 2. A camera 17 is installed inside the limiting hole 16. A sliding groove 19 is provided at the lower end of the support shell 4. An electromagnet 21 is installed at the rear end of the sliding groove 19. A slider 20 is slidably connected inside the sliding groove 19. A magnetic block 22 that cooperates with the electromagnet 21 is installed at the rear end of the slider 20. Two springs 23 are equally spaced between the rear end of the slider 20 and the sliding groove 19. The force generated between the electromagnet 21 and the magnetic block 22 when the electromagnet 21 is energized is always greater than the elastic force generated by the springs 23, which can facilitate the camera 17 to rotate more flexibly.
[0028] A connecting rod 14 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the spherical limiting block 15 near the arc-shaped outer shell 2. A drive rod 13, which is horizontally set and rotatably connected to the connecting rod 14, is rotatably connected inside the support shell 4. A fixing sleeve 25 is set at the upper end of the slider 20. A second motor 12 for driving the drive rod 13 to rotate is installed inside the fixing sleeve 25. A current regulator 24 for controlling the amount of electricity supplied to the electromagnet 21 is set at the right end inside the support shell 4. By changing the amount of current supplied to the electromagnet 21, the amount of force generated between the electromagnet 21 and the magnetic block 22 is changed. Two players 33 are equally spaced at the front end inside the simulator body, which can eliminate the driver's dizziness by playing white noise.
[0029] Usage: When in use, turn knob 31 to rotate threaded rod 30, causing second clamping plate 29 to move towards first clamping plate 26. At the same time, limit rod moves relative to fixed sleeve 25. First clamping plate 26 and second clamping plate 29 clamp the simulator body, and arc-shaped shell 2 is installed on simulator body. When the driver is driving simulator body, power cord 32 connects to power supply. Camera 17 monitors the driver's eyes. When dizziness is detected in the driver's eyes, white noise is played through player 33 to remind the driver. When the driver's head turns while driving, camera 17 controls first motor 7 to start in order to better detect the driver's eyes. First motor 7 drives gear 6 to rotate. Gear 6 moves relative to arc rack 5 in arc-shaped shell 2, causing support shell 4 to move relative to limit port. Support shell 4 causes first limit port 8 to move relative to arc-shaped limit rod 11. Arc-shaped limit rod 11 drives first roller 9 and second roller 10 to rotate, thereby causing camera 17 to move left and right.
[0030] The current regulator 24 controls the flow of different currents into the electromagnet 21, thereby changing the magnitude of the attraction between the electromagnet 21 and the magnetic block 22. This changes the sliding distance of the slider 20, which in turn moves the second motor 12 in the fixed sleeve 25. The movement of the slider 20 compresses the spring 23, generating a spring force that causes the slider 20 to return to its original position. By adjusting the magnitude of the current flowing through the electromagnet 21, the movement of the slider 20 is changed. The second motor 12 moves the drive rod 13 by adjusting the distance. The drive rod 13 rotates the connecting rod 14 relative to it, and the connecting rod 14 causes the spherical limit block 15 to deflect by a different distance relative to the second limit port 18. The second motor 12 is activated, enabling the spherical limit block 15 to rotate at different angles, allowing the camera 17 to rotate more flexibly and providing better monitoring of the driver's eyes.
[0031] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art can make modifications to this embodiment without contributing any inventive step, but as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present utility model, they are protected by patent law.
