[0030] The following detailed description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, outlines some embodiments of the present invention. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.

[0031] Please refer to Figures 1-8 This utility model provides a vehicle-mounted environmental monitoring device, including a mounting box 11. The bottom of the mounting box 11 is fixedly mounted on the roof of the vehicle via a base 1. A camera 4 and a supplementary light 5 are rotatably connected to both sides of the mounting box 11. A mounting cylinder 12 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the mounting box 11. An integrated weather instrument 3 for monitoring the environment is fixedly mounted on the mounting cylinder 12. Protective covers 2 are installed on both sides of the mounting cylinder 12. The protective covers 2 can rotate and fold upward. A display screen 6 is fixedly mounted on one side of the protective cover 2.

[0032] The integrated weather instrument 3 uses existing technology and is equipped with multiple environmental monitoring sensors, which can simultaneously measure a variety of major environmental parameters such as atmospheric temperature, humidity, wind speed, wind direction, air pressure, and dust concentration.

[0033] The mounting box 11 is equipped with an adjustment mechanism, which includes a rotating shaft 71. The rotating shaft 71 is rotatably mounted on the mounting box 11, and its two ends are fixedly connected to the camera 4 and the fill light 5, respectively. A motor 74 is fixedly mounted inside the mounting box 11. A drive bevel gear 73 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 74. A driven bevel gear 72 is meshed on one side of the drive bevel gear 73. The driven bevel gear 72 is fixedly sleeved on the rotating shaft 71.

[0034] When the motor 74 starts, it drives the drive bevel gear 73 to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating shaft 71 to rotate through the driven bevel gear 72, thereby realizing the rotation adjustment of the camera 4 and the fill light 5. With this setting, the angles of the camera 4 and the fill light 5 can be adjusted conveniently and quickly to meet different shooting needs. For example, while the vehicle is in motion, the angle of the camera 4 can be adjusted as needed to shoot the environmental conditions in different directions, and the fill light 5 can also adjust its angle accordingly, improving the flexibility and convenience of the device.

[0035] The bottom of the protective cover 2 has an opening. A retaining ring 21 is fixedly connected to the side of the protective cover 2 near the mounting cylinder 12. Several retaining grooves 22 are opened on the inner wall of the retaining ring 21. The retaining ring 21 is rotatably installed on the retaining seat 24. A retaining block 25 is provided on the outer circumference of the retaining seat 24. The retaining block 25 engages with the retaining grooves 22. The retaining seat 24 is fixedly installed on the connecting block 23. The connecting block 23 is fixedly installed on the screw 26. A fastening nut 27 is threadedly connected to one end of the screw 26. The screw 26 is rotatably installed on the fixing seat 28. The fastening nut 27 abuts against one end of the fixing seat 28. The fixing seat 28 is fixedly installed on the mounting cylinder 12.

[0036] The protective cover 2 has an opening at the bottom and can rotate and fold upwards. A retaining ring 21 is fixedly connected to the side of the protective cover 2 near the mounting cylinder 12. The retaining ring 21 is rotatably mounted on the retaining seat 24. The retaining block 25 on the outer circumference of the retaining seat 24 engages with the retaining groove 22 on the inner wall of the retaining ring 21 to achieve rotational positioning of the protective cover 2. When it is necessary to adjust the position of the protective cover 2, loosen the fastening nut 27, rotate the screw 26, and drive the retaining seat 24, retaining ring 21 and protective cover 2 to move through the connecting block 23. After adjusting the position, tighten the fastening nut 27.

[0037] With the protective cover 2 unfolded and the opening facing downwards, and the display screen 6 facing the direction of travel, the environment can be monitored during travel, and the monitoring results can be displayed on the display screen 6. When not in use, the protective cover 2 can be rotated so that its opening faces upwards, and then the protective cover 2 can be flipped upwards to cover the integrated weather instrument 3 through the protective covers 2 on both sides, which serves to prevent dust and protect it. When monitoring is required, the protective cover 2 can be opened downwards and folded downwards without affecting the normal operation of the weather instrument, while also facilitating the display on the display screen 6. The snap-fit ​​structure between the retaining ring 21 and the retaining seat 24, as well as the adjustment structure of the screw 26 and the fastening nut 27, make the position adjustment of the protective cover 2 convenient and stable.

[0038] In summary, the working principle of the vehicle-mounted environmental monitoring device according to this utility model embodiment is as follows:

[0039] This vehicle-mounted environmental monitoring device is installed on the roof of the vehicle via a base 1. The mounting box 11 serves as the core supporting component, supporting components such as the integrated weather instrument 3, camera 4, and supplementary light 5. The integrated weather instrument 3 monitors environmental meteorological data in real time. The camera 4 and supplementary light 5 can be flexibly adjusted in angle by the adjustment mechanism to capture and record the surrounding environment. The protective cover 2 can rotate and fold through structures such as the retaining ring 21 and the retaining seat 24, providing protection for the integrated weather instrument 3 when needed. The display screen 6 displays the monitoring data or captured images to the user. The entire device works in concert to achieve comprehensive monitoring and information presentation of the vehicle environment.

[0040] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
