Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of agricultural meteorological monitoring equipment, and in particular to an agricultural meteorological disaster early warning device. Background Technology

[0002] In agricultural production, meteorological disasters have a crucial impact on crop growth and harvest. Agricultural meteorological disaster early warning devices can monitor meteorological data in real time and issue timely disaster warnings, providing important protection for agricultural production. However, existing agricultural meteorological disaster early warning devices have some shortcomings in their shell cavities.

[0003] Existing early warning devices typically have a single, integrated internal cavity, or are divided into two cavities by a partition, with the battery reinforced and secured to ensure high overall strength and safety. However, the circuit boards, batteries, and control boards within the early warning device generate heat during operation, leading to deviations in data such as temperature and humidity detection. Utility Model Content

[0004] This application provides an agricultural meteorological disaster early warning device to solve the problem of meteorological data deviation caused by the single cavity of the early warning device's shell.

[0005] This application provides an agricultural meteorological disaster early warning device, including an upper shell, a lower shell, a first sensor assembly, a second sensor assembly, a battery, and a control assembly. The upper shell has a first inner cavity; the lower shell has a second inner cavity. The upper shell is positioned above the lower shell. A side wall of one of the lower and upper shells extends towards the other to form an annular wall. The annular wall, the bottom wall of the upper shell, and the top wall of the lower shell form a third inner cavity. The first sensor assembly includes an image sensor and a wind speed sensor, and is disposed within the first inner cavity. The second sensor assembly includes a temperature sensor, a humidity sensor, a barometric pressure sensor, and an air quality sensor, and is disposed within the second inner cavity. The battery and control assembly are disposed within the third inner cavity. The first sensor assembly is electrically connected to the battery and control assembly, and the second sensor assembly is electrically connected to the battery and control assembly.

[0006] In this application, the upper housing, the lower housing, and the space between the upper and lower housings form three independent first cavities, second cavities, and third cavities, respectively. These three cavities can be used to carry the first sensor assembly, the second sensor assembly, and the battery and control assembly, respectively. This not only avoids the high-heat-generating components in the battery and control assembly from affecting the operation of some sensors in the first and second sensor assemblies, thus improving the accuracy of the sensor detection results, but also allows the first sensor assembly, the second sensor assembly, and the battery and control assembly to be pre-installed at corresponding positions in the upper and lower housings before assembly, simplifying the on-site installation and debugging process and saving time and effort.

[0007] In some embodiments of this application, the bottom wall thickness of the upper housing is greater than the thickness of the other wall panels of the upper housing; the top wall thickness of the lower housing is greater than the thickness of the other wall panels of the lower housing. This can further reduce the heat transfer between the battery and control components located in the second inner cavity and the first and second inner cavities, thereby reducing the impact of heat generation from internal components of the battery and control components on the detection results of some sensors.

[0008] In some embodiments of this application, an annular wall panel is formed on the upper housing, and an annular groove is formed on the top wall of the lower housing, with the edge of the annular wall panel extending into the annular groove. The annular wall panel being located on the upper housing allows the battery and control components to be located on the bottom wall of the upper housing, i.e., the battery and control components are located at the top of the third inner cavity.

[0009] In some embodiments of this application, the agricultural meteorological disaster early warning device further includes a sealing gasket disposed at the annular groove, with the inner wall of the annular wall panel fitting against the sealing gasket. The sealing gasket can improve the sealing performance of the third inner cavity, thereby protecting the operational safety of the battery and control components.

[0010] In some embodiments of this application, a sealing gasket is disposed around the annular groove, and the sealing gasket is pressed between the annular groove and the annular wall plate to achieve a sealed connection between the annular groove and the annular wall plate. This sealing method can prevent water and insects from entering the battery and control components, thereby enabling the battery and control components to operate safely for a long time.

[0011] In some embodiments of this application, the agricultural meteorological disaster early warning device further includes a connector disposed between the annular wall panel and the top wall of the lower housing. The connector is used to fix the annular wall panel and the lower housing together. The connector can improve the connection strength between the upper and lower housings and ensure the stability of the third inner cavity.

[0012] In some embodiments of this application, multiple connectors are provided, and these connectors are spaced apart. Multiple connectors can further improve the connection strength between the upper and lower housings.

[0013] In some embodiments of this application, the agricultural meteorological disaster early warning device further includes multiple connection ports, which are respectively disposed on both sides of the bottom wall of the upper housing and both sides of the top wall of the lower housing. The connection ports on both sides of the bottom wall of the upper housing are electrically connected in pairs, and the connection ports on both sides of the top wall of the lower housing are electrically connected in pairs. The connection ports facilitate the electrical connection of sensors, batteries, and control components, and facilitate circuit configuration and wiring organization.

[0014] In some embodiments of this application, the battery and control components include a battery, a circuit board, and a controller. The battery, circuit board, and control components can provide power and control capabilities to the agricultural meteorological disaster early warning device, ensuring the device's functional integrity.

[0024] In agricultural production, meteorological disasters have a crucial impact on crop growth and harvest. Agricultural meteorological disaster early warning devices can monitor meteorological data in real time and issue timely disaster warnings, providing important protection for agricultural production. However, existing agricultural meteorological disaster early warning devices have some shortcomings in their shell cavities.

[0025] Existing early warning devices typically have a single, integrated internal cavity, or are divided into two cavities by a partition, with the battery reinforced and secured to ensure high overall strength and safety. However, the circuit boards, batteries, and control boards within the early warning device generate heat during operation, leading to deviations in data such as temperature and humidity detection.

[0026] Therefore, please refer to Figure 1 This application provides an agricultural meteorological disaster early warning device, including an upper shell 1, a lower shell 2, a first sensor assembly 4, a second sensor assembly 5, and a battery and control assembly 6.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 1 The upper shell 1 has a first inner cavity 11 inside. The upper shell 1 can be a plastic shell or a metal shell. The top of the upper shell 1 can be arc-shaped or spherical so that rainwater can slide off quickly. The first inner cavity 11 can be a sealed cavity.

[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 The lower housing 2 has a second inner cavity 21 inside. The upper housing 1 is disposed on the upper side of the lower housing 2. The material of the lower housing 2 can be the same as that of the upper housing 1. Both can be plastic or hard materials among metals. The size of the lower housing 2 can be set to correspond to that of the upper housing 1 so that the upper housing 1 can be stacked on the upper side of the lower housing 2. The second inner cavity 21 can also be a sealed cavity.

[0029] Please refer to Figure 1 To ensure uniform strength between the upper housing 1 and the lower housing 2, both can be molded using a die, and their wall thicknesses can be the same or similar. Since sensors, such as those for wind, temperature, humidity, and images, are also installed inside the upper housing 1 and lower housing 2, corresponding ventilation holes, viewing windows, and through holes should be provided on the upper housing 1 and lower housing 2 according to the type and operational requirements of the sensors to ensure their normal operation.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 1 The side wall panel of one of the lower shell 2 and the upper shell 1 extends towards the other to form an annular wall panel 3. The annular wall panel 3, the bottom wall of the upper shell 1, and the top wall of the lower shell 2 form a third inner cavity 31. The annular wall panel 3 can be integrally formed with the side wall of the upper shell 1 or the lower shell 2, or it can be welded or bonded. The annular wall panel 3 and the side wall of the upper shell 1 or the lower shell 2 can be coplanar. The shape of the annular wall panel 3 can be circular or square, and the shape can be set according to the shape of the upper shell 1 and the lower shell 2.

[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 The first sensor assembly 4 includes an image sensor 41 and a wind speed sensor 42, and is disposed within the first inner cavity 11. The first sensor assembly 4 mainly includes sensor structures that require a certain height or working environment, such as the image sensor 41 and the wind speed sensor 42 mentioned above. In this case, the lens, window, and wind structure required for the image sensor 41 can be attached to the upper housing 1. For the wind speed sensor 42, structures such as a rotating rod and a wind cup can be added. At the same time, the first sensor assembly 4 may also include a light sensor, a rain sensor, etc.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 1The second sensor assembly 5 includes a temperature sensor 51, a humidity sensor 52, a barometric pressure sensor 53, and an air quality sensor 54. The second sensor assembly 5 is disposed within the second inner cavity 21. The second sensor assembly 5 includes detection elements that do not require high height or precise position for detecting air, such as the aforementioned elements for detecting air temperature, humidity, barometric pressure, and air composition. It may also include other elements, such as frost detection sensors, accumulated temperature sensors, and dryness sensors.

[0033] Please refer to Figure 1 The battery and control component 6 are disposed within the third inner cavity 31. The first sensor component 4 is electrically connected to the battery and control component 6, and the second sensor component 5 is electrically connected to the battery 61 and the control component. The battery 61, i.e., the control component, can be the power supply and control core of the agricultural meteorological disaster early warning device. It may include the battery 61 and the controller 63, and may also include other components that generate significant heat and are used to connect to the first sensor component 4 or the second sensor component 5.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 1 In this application, the upper housing 1, the lower housing 2, and the space between the upper housing 1 and the lower housing 2 respectively form three independent first inner cavities 11, second inner cavities 21, and third inner cavities 31. The three inner cavities can be used to carry the first sensor assembly 4, the second sensor assembly 5, and the battery and control assembly 6, respectively. This can prevent the high-heat-generating components in the battery 61 and the control assembly from affecting the operation of some sensors in the first sensor assembly 4 and the second sensor assembly 5, thereby improving the accuracy of the sensor detection results. It also allows the first sensor assembly 4, the second sensor assembly 5, and the battery and control assembly 6 to be pre-installed at corresponding positions in the upper housing 1 and the lower housing 2, and then assembled. The on-site installation and debugging process is simple, time-saving, and labor-saving.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 1 It can be explained that, in order to avoid the temperature in the first inner cavity 11 or the second inner cavity 21 rising due to the heat conduction of the wall panels of the upper shell 1 and the lower shell 2 when the components in the battery and control assembly 6 heat up, a layered structure with poor thermal conductivity, such as a foam layer, can be provided on one or both sides of the bottom wall of the upper shell 1 and one or both sides of the top wall of the lower shell 2 to reduce the heat conduction efficiency of the plate.

[0036] Please refer to Figure 1 Meanwhile, part or all of the annular wall panel 3 can be made of metal, such as copper or stainless steel, and attached to the battery and control components 6 to improve its heat conduction.

[0037] At this point, heat dissipation holes can be provided on the annular wall panel 3, and rainproof structures such as baffles can be provided at the heat dissipation holes to further improve the heat dissipation effect of the battery and control components 6.

[0038] Please refer to Figure 1 In some examples, the bottom wall thickness of the upper housing 1 is greater than the thickness of the other wall panels of the upper housing 1; the top wall thickness of the lower housing 2 is greater than the thickness of the other wall panels of the lower housing 2. In this case, the heat transfer effect between the battery and control assembly 6 located in the second inner cavity 21 and the first inner cavity 11 and the second inner cavity 21 can be worse, further reducing the impact of the heating of the internal components of the battery and control assembly 6 on the detection results of some sensors.

[0039] In some examples, the bottom wall thickness of the upper shell 1 and the top wall thickness of the lower shell 2 may be the same or different.

[0040] Please refer to Figure 1 In some examples, an annular wall panel 3 is formed on the upper housing 1, and an annular groove 22 is formed on the top wall of the lower housing 2, with the edge of the annular wall panel 3 extending into the annular groove 22. The annular wall panel 3 is located on the upper housing 1, which allows the battery and control assembly 6 to be located on the bottom wall of the upper housing 1, that is, the battery and control assembly 6 is located at the top of the third inner cavity 31.

[0041] In some examples, the annular groove 22 can be arranged around the lower housing 2, and the width of the annular groove 22 can be greater than the thickness of the annular wall plate 3, so as to facilitate the fit between the annular wall plate 3 and the annular groove 22.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 1 In some examples, the agricultural meteorological disaster early warning device also includes a sealing gasket 23, which is disposed at the annular groove 22, and the inner wall of the annular wall plate 3 is in contact with the sealing gasket 23. The sealing gasket 23 can improve the sealing performance of the third inner cavity 31, thereby protecting the operational safety of the battery and control components 6.

[0043] In some examples, the sealing gasket 23 can be made of rubber or other flexible materials.

[0044] Please refer to Figure 2 In some examples, the sealing gasket 23 is arranged around the annular groove 22, and the sealing gasket 23 is pressed between the annular groove 22 and the annular wall plate 3 to seal the annular groove 22 and the annular wall plate 3. This sealing method can prevent water and insects from entering the battery and control components 6, thereby enabling the battery and control components 6 to operate safely for a long time.

[0045] In some examples, the sealing gasket 23 can be configured as a single layer or multiple layers. The sealing gasket 23 should seal between the annular wall plate 3 and the annular groove 22. Therefore, the thickness of the sealing gasket 23 can be greater than the depth of the annular groove 22 in the vertical direction.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2In some examples, the agricultural meteorological disaster early warning device also includes a connector 7, which is disposed between the annular wall plate 3 and the top wall of the lower housing 2. The connector 7 is used to fix the annular wall plate 3 and the lower housing 2 together. The connector 7 can improve the connection strength between the upper housing 1 and the lower housing 2 and ensure the stability of the third inner cavity 31.

[0047] In some examples, the connector 7 can be a bolt or a stud nut; a sealing ring or gasket can be provided at the connection between the connector 7 and the annular wall plate 3 to make the connection between the connector 7 and the annular wall plate 3 stable and to provide a better sealing effect.

[0048] To ensure stable installation of the connector 7, a threaded connection can be used between the connector 7 and the lower housing 2. In this case, a corresponding threaded hole can be provided at the corresponding position of the lower housing 2, and a corresponding threaded hole can be provided on the annular wall plate 3 to facilitate the installation of the connector 7.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 2 In some examples, multiple connectors 7 are provided, and the multiple connectors 7 are distributed at intervals. Multiple connectors 7 can further improve the connection strength between the upper housing 1 and the lower housing 2.

[0050] In some examples, the number of connectors 7 can be 4 to 12. Connectors 7 can be set on one side wall of the annular wall panel 3, or on the opposite side walls of the annular wall panel 3, or they can be set at intervals around the annular wall panel 3.

[0051] Please refer to Figure 1 In some examples, the agricultural meteorological disaster early warning device also includes multiple connection ports 8, which are respectively located on both sides of the bottom wall of the upper housing 1 and on both sides of the top wall of the lower housing 2. The connection ports 8 on both sides of the bottom wall of the upper housing 1 are electrically connected in pairs, and the connection ports 8 on both sides of the top wall of the lower housing 2 are electrically connected in pairs. The connection ports 8 facilitate the electrical connection of sensors, batteries, and control components 6, and facilitate circuit configuration and wiring.

[0052] The pairwise correspondence means that the two connection ports 8 located on both sides of the top wall of the lower housing 2 correspond to each other, forming the pairwise correspondence described above. In this case, the number of connection ports 8 on both sides of the top wall of the lower housing 8 can be equal. The connection ports 8 on the bottom wall of the upper housing 1 are arranged in a similar way to the connection ports 8 on the top wall of the lower housing 2. The number of connection ports 8 in both can be equal or unequal.

[0053] In some examples, the connection port 8 can be a data port, which can be located on both sides of the bottom wall of the upper housing 1 and on both sides of the top wall of the lower housing 2, so that the sensor in the first sensor assembly 4 can be directly connected to the battery and control assembly 6 through the data port via a specified line, and the sensor in the second sensor assembly 5 can be directly connected to the battery and control assembly 6 through the data port via a specified line.

[0054] Please refer to Figure 1 In some examples, the battery and control component 6 includes a battery 61, a circuit board 62, and a controller 63. The battery 61, circuit board 62, and control component can provide power and control capabilities to the agricultural meteorological disaster early warning device to ensure the device's functional integrity.

[0055] In some examples, battery 61 can be a lithium battery 61 or a lead-acid battery 61. Battery 61 can be a replaceable structure, and an interface for installing battery 61 can be provided in the third inner cavity 31.

[0056] Circuit board 62 can be inserted into the bottom wall of the upper housing 1. The connection between circuit board 62 and controller 63 can be the same as or similar to the connection between a computer motherboard and CPU. Controller 63 can be a CPU, an MCU, or a PLC.

[0057] In the description of this specification, specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples.

[0058] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto.
