[0025] In order to make the person skilled in the art better understand the technical scheme of the present application, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, not all. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by the person skilled in the art without creative labor should belong to the scope of protection of the present application.
[0026] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second" and the like in the description and claims of the present application and the above drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and do not necessarily have to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchanged under appropriate circumstances, so that the embodiments of the present application described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein.
[0027] Figure 1 is a block schematic diagram of the initial speed measuring device provided by the present application. As shown in Figure 1 , the initial speed measuring device 100 comprises: a front-end acquisition device 200 and a rear-end processing device 300;
[0028] The front-end acquisition device 200 comprises an acquisition chip 201, a signal transmitting unit 202, a signal receiving unit 203 and a zero-time signal triggering unit 204 connected with the acquisition chip 201, and the acquisition chip 201 is connected with the rear-end processing device 300 through an optical and electrical hybrid cable 400;
[0029] The signal transmitting unit 202 is used for transmitting a single-frequency continuous wave signal, the signal receiving unit 203 is used for receiving a Doppler echo signal of the single-frequency continuous wave signal, and the zero-time signal triggering unit 204 is used for generating a trigger signal when the projectile is launched. Wherein, when the trigger signal is generated, a signal path is formed between the acquisition chip 201 and the signal receiving unit 203 to collect the Doppler echo signal received by the signal receiving unit 203, and the Doppler echo signal is transmitted to the rear-end processing device 300 through the optical and electrical hybrid cable 400.
[0030] It should be noted that the muzzle velocity of the bullet is a measure of whether the equipment is qualified. Further, the muzzle velocity measurement of the bullet becomes an essential link. The current muzzle velocity measurement of the bullet generally uses the principle of Doppler effect to measure the velocity of the bullet, that is, the velocity of the bullet is measured by emitting electromagnetic waves and receiving the reflected signals. This method is not limited by the site, has a wide range of applications, especially when shooting at high angles, and is widely used. However, at present, the measuring device is still connected with the front-end device through the cable of the back-end desktop computer. For safety considerations, the back-end desktop computer needs to be far away from the front end, so that the interconnection cable is longer, and the cable is very heavy, which is very troublesome to deploy and withdraw. And it is also impossible to transmit signals to the more rear-end device. In addition, most of the current measuring devices use manual start signal collection, which makes the test results of the test device not very accurate.
[0031] Therefore, through the muzzle velocity measuring device provided by the utility model, the front-end acquisition device 200 and the rear-end processing device 300 are connected through an optical-electric hybrid cable formed based on optical fiber technology, and the optical-electric hybrid cable 400 using optical fiber technology is light in quality and long in signal transmission distance. In this way, the communication distance between the front-end acquisition device 200 and the rear-end processing device 300 is increased, the anti-interference ability is strong, and the device is convenient to deploy and withdraw.
[0032] The working principle of the muzzle velocity measuring device 100 is that the signal emitting unit 202 emits a single-frequency continuous wave signal, and then the zero-time signal triggering unit 204 triggers the collection chip 201 to collect the Doppler echo signal received by the signal receiving unit 203 at the moment of bullet emission. The collection chip 201 transmits the Doppler echo signal carrying the muzzle velocity of the bullet to the rear-end processing device 300 through the optical-electric hybrid cable 400. The calculation software is installed in the rear-end processing device 300 in advance, which can perform Fourier analysis on the Doppler echo signal, and then obtain the initial velocity of the bullet. Further, the muzzle velocity measurement of the bullet is completed.
[0033] Due to the high integration of the front-end acquisition device 200 of the measuring device 100 and the lightness of the optical-electric hybrid cable 400, the entire device has high integration and high portability. And the setting of the zero-time signal triggering unit 204 enables the operator to be far away from the bullet emission site, ensuring the safety of the operator under the premise of realizing the synchronization of signal capture and bullet emission.
[0034] Optionally, the zero-time signal triggering unit 204 is an infrared trigger, which generates a trigger signal when detecting the firelight of the bullet emission.
[0035] The infrared trigger can capture the light signal, and when the infrared trigger captures the light signal, a trigger signal can be output, and when the infrared trigger does not capture the light signal, no trigger signal is output. For example, the infrared trigger can be an infrared sensor, which outputs a first level signal after receiving light and outputs a second level signal when no light is received. When the first level signal is output, that is, when the trigger signal is output, a communication path can be formed between the acquisition chip 201 and the signal receiving unit 203, so that the acquisition chip 201 starts to collect the Doppler echo signal. In an embodiment, the acquisition chip 201 can be connected between the signal receiving unit 203 and the related circuit (such as a switch tube and the like), and the related circuit uses high and low levels to open or close. For example, the trigger signal output by the infrared trigger is a first level signal, and the switch tube is turned on. At ordinary times, the infrared trigger outputs a second level signal, and the switch tube is turned off.
[0036] Optionally, Figure 2 is a block schematic diagram of a muzzle velocity measuring device provided by the utility model, as shown in Figure 2 The acquisition chip 201 comprises a zero-time switch 205, one end of the zero-time switch 205 is connected with the output end of the signal receiving unit 203, the other end of the zero-time switch 205 is connected with the signal collection end of the acquisition chip 201, and the control end of the zero-time switch 205 is connected with the output end of the zero-time signal triggering unit 204; the zero-time switch 205 is used for being in a communication state when receiving the trigger signal.
[0037] In an embodiment, the zero-time switch 205 can be a switch tube or other switch capable of being controlled by an electric signal. The zero-time switch 205 can be in a conducting state or a closed state according to the signal received from the zero-time signal triggering unit 204. To achieve the starting of the collection of the Doppler echo signal related to the muzzle velocity of the projectile at the same time as the projectile is launched.
[0038] Optionally, Figure 3 is a block schematic diagram of another muzzle velocity measuring device provided by the utility model, as shown in Figure 3 The signal transmitting unit 202 comprises an antenna transmitting array surface 2021, and the signal receiving unit 203 comprises an antenna receiving array surface 2031.
[0039] The antenna transmitting array surface 2021 comprises a transmitter and a transmitting antenna, and the transmitter forms a single-frequency continuous wave signal; the antenna receiving array surface 2031 comprises a receiver and a receiving antenna, and the receiver is used for receiving the Doppler echo signal of the single-frequency continuous wave signal.
[0040] The transmitter can be a radar transmitter, and the receiver can be a radar receiver. The transmitter transmits a single-frequency continuous wave signal, which is radiated to a space region through a transmitting antenna. The single-frequency continuous wave signal has specific frequency characteristics and stable waveform features, and can play a key role in subsequent communication and detection applications. In addition, the receiving antenna captures relevant signals within the effective receiving range. When the single-frequency continuous wave encounters a reflector, the single-frequency continuous wave signal generates a Doppler echo signal. At this time, the receiver begins to perform its receiving function and accurately receives the Doppler echo signal of the single-frequency continuous wave signal. The receiver has high sensitivity and good signal processing capability, and can perform a series of processing operations such as amplification, filtering, demodulation, etc. on the received weak Doppler echo signal. Thus, the processed Doppler echo signal can be output to the acquisition chip 201, and transmitted to the back-end processing device 300 through the acquisition chip 201. The back-end processing device 300 extracts valuable information contained therein, such as the speed, distance, and other related parameter information of the projectile.
