[0021] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features and technical solutions in the present invention can be combined with each other.

[0023] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0024] Example 1

[0025] like Figures 1-5As shown, a barrier gate arm offset damage early warning device includes a mounting plate 1. A data processing body 2 is mounted on one end of the mounting plate 1. A cut-off microwave sensor 4 is mounted in the middle of the mounting plate 1 and is electrically connected to the data processing body 2. A rotating groove 11 is formed at the end of the mounting plate 1 away from the data processing body 2. A drive shaft 9 is rotatably connected in the rotating groove 11. A barrier gate arm 10 is mounted on the drive shaft 9. A drive assembly is mounted at the location of the drive shaft 9 on the mounting plate 1. An extension assembly is mounted on the top of the barrier gate arm 10. An adjustment assembly is mounted at the end of the data processing body 2 away from the mounting plate 1. An extension assembly is mounted on the data processing body 2. The system includes a display screen 3. When in use, an external camera recognition device is installed. When the barrier gate arm is damaged, the camera recognition device is activated to transmit the recognized license plate data to the data processing unit 2 for toll collection and interception. The display screen 3 displays the recognized license plate number. The drive component includes a mounting box 5, which is mounted on a mounting plate 1. A first servo motor 6 is installed inside the mounting plate 1. A worm gear 7 is mounted on the output shaft of the first servo motor 6. A worm wheel 8 is meshed with the bottom of the worm gear 7. The worm wheel 8 is connected to the drive shaft 9. The self-locking between the worm wheel 8 and the worm gear 7 prevents the barrier gate arm 10 from being rotated by external factors.

[0026] During operation, the device is installed in front of the existing unmanned parking lot gate, with the interruption-type microwave sensor 4 on the mounting plate 1 facing the gate's barrier. When the barrier of the existing unmanned parking lot breaks or becomes damaged, preventing normal charging, the interruption-type microwave sensor 4 periodically emits radio frequency signals. These signals are reflected back when they encounter the existing unmanned parking lot gate barrier and are received by the interruption-type microwave sensor 4. If the data processing unit 2 detects an abnormality in the reflected signal (such as insufficient signal strength, excessive time delay, or no signal return), it determines that the existing unmanned parking lot gate barrier may have broken or become damaged and cannot be used normally. When it cannot be used normally, the interruption-type microwave sensor 4... The wave sensor 4 transmits a high-level signal to the time-delay relay in the data processing unit 2. The time-delay relay is triggered and releases for 5 seconds. Then it is powered on. During the release period, the normally closed relay switches to the normally open relay. At the same time, it triggers the device's call GPIO port to notify the back-end customer service to handle the event. After the time-delay relay is powered on, the device's built-in backup barrier gate is activated, and the drive component is enabled. This causes the first servo motor 6 on the drive component to drive the worm gear 7 to rotate in the mounting box 5. The worm gear 7 drives the worm wheel 8, which is meshed with it, to rotate. The worm wheel 8 drives the drive shaft 9, which is connected to it, to rotate. The drive shaft 9 drives the barrier gate arm 10 to rotate in the rotation groove 11, so that the barrier gate arm 10 is laid flat for interception.

[0027] When the parking lot toll gate is damaged, the device promptly notifies the back-end system and simultaneously activates its own backup gate to continue charging for vehicles entering and exiting normally. This resolves the issue of other vehicles being unable to enter or exit normally after the gate barrier is damaged, which could cause inconvenience to drivers, especially during peak hours and potentially lead to traffic congestion. Furthermore, the inability to promptly notify the back-end system for manual intervention after the gate is damaged also affects the parking lot's subsequent normal charging operations. This device reduces the economic losses caused by the inability to charge normally when the gate barrier in an unmanned parking lot is damaged.

[0028] Example 2

[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the adjustment assembly includes a sliding plate 22 and a support frame 18. One end of the sliding plate 22 is connected to the data processing body 2. A first lead screw 20 is threaded onto the sliding plate 22. The two ends of the first lead screw 20 are rotatably connected to the top and bottom of the support frame 18. Two first slide rods 21 are symmetrically slidably connected to the two ends of the sliding plate 22. The two ends of the two first slide rods 21 are mounted on the same support frame 18. A second servo motor 19 is mounted on the top of the support frame 18. The first slide rods 21 provide additional stability and guidance to ensure that the sliding plate 22 does not shake or deviate during movement. The output shaft of the second servo motor 19 is connected to the first lead screw 20.

[0030] During operation, the second servo motor 19 drives the first lead screw 20 to rotate, and the first lead screw 20 drives the sliding plate 22, which is threaded to it, to move vertically up and down. The sliding plate 22 slides synchronously at the first slide rods 21 at both ends, so that the sliding plate 22 drives the data processing body 2 and the barrier gate arm 10 on the mounting plate 1 to adjust the height. Through the drive of the second servo motor 19 and the transmission of the first lead screw 20, the height of the data processing body 2 and the barrier gate arm 10 can be precisely adjusted. This adjustment method is flexible and fast, making the device suitable for barrier gate early warning in different scenarios.

[0031] A support base 23 is installed at the bottom of the main support frame 18. Two mounting holes 24 are opened on the support base 23, and four anti-slip pads 25 are installed at the bottom of the support base 23.

[0032] During operation, the support base 23 supports the device, the anti-slip pad 25 reduces movement of the device when placed, and the entire device can be fixed by installing external fixing bolts in the mounting holes 24.

[0033] Example 3

[0034] like Figures 1-4As shown, a limit groove 13 is provided on the barrier arm 10. The extension assembly includes a sliding block 12, which is slidably connected to the barrier arm 10. A limit block 14 is provided inside the sliding block 12. A barrier extension rod 17 is installed on the top of the sliding block 12. The limit block 14 is slidably connected to the limit groove 13. The extension assembly also includes a limit screw 15, which is threadedly connected to the sliding block 12. A handle 16 is installed on the limit screw 15. The limit groove 13 and the limit block 14 can guide the sliding block 12 when it moves, reducing the deviation of the sliding block 12 when it slides.

[0035] During operation, rotating the handle 16 causes the limiting screw 15 to rotate on the sliding block 12, releasing the barrier extension rod 17 connected to the sliding block 12 from its fixed state. Pulling the barrier extension rod 17 then causes the sliding block 12 and the limiting block 14 to slide within the barrier rod 10 and the limiting groove 13, extending the barrier rod 17's interception length. Rotating the handle 16 again causes the limiting screw 15 to press the barrier rod 10, thus limiting and fixing the sliding block 12 and the barrier extension rod 17. Through the extension component, the device can quickly change the length of the barrier rod 10, adapting to different road widths or backup interception needs in specific situations. This design makes the warning device more flexible, adaptable to various application scenarios, and improves its practical value.

[0036] The preferred embodiments of this utility model disclosed above are merely illustrative of the present utility model. These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the present utility model to the specific implementations described. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification. This specification selects and specifically describes these embodiments to better explain the principles and practical applications of the present utility model, thereby enabling those skilled in the art to better understand and utilize it. The present utility model is limited only by the claims and their full scope and equivalents.
