Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pedestrian and vehicle traffic lighting, and more specifically, to an intelligent dimming and energy-saving system. Background Technology

[0002] Urban development is essential for human progress. However, with the ever-increasing speed of urban development, sustainable development resources face severe challenges. To reduce the consumption of these resources, development strategies such as "energy conservation" and "emission reduction" have been proposed. In the lighting industry today, LED light sources have become mainstream. However, currently installed LED light sources are all individually controlled, resulting in limited application and failing to meet the diverse needs of various scenarios. Especially in one-way traffic, current dimming systems can only switch lights on and off at set times, operating at full power when on and unable to adapt to changes in traffic flow. This leads to low practical lighting utilization, and in scenarios with no pedestrians or vehicles, turning on the lighting system undoubtedly results in unnecessary energy consumption, which is inconsistent with the "energy conservation" development strategy.

[0020] To gain a clearer understanding of the technical features, objectives, and effects of this utility model, the specific embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] refer to Figures 1-3 A smart dimming and energy-saving system includes a system control switch, a radar vehicle detector, and a lamppost control device. It also includes a control center and a wireless module. The system control switch, the lamppost control device, and the radar vehicle detector are connected via the wireless module. The control center is installed inside the radar vehicle detector. The radar vehicle detector feeds back data on detected vehicles and pedestrians to the control center. The control center sends commands to the lamppost control device, which controls the lighting of the lampposts. The system control switch controls the entire dimming system's on / off state. It should be noted that wireless transmission technology is already existing and applied in other fields. For example, existing technologies include smart dimming windows with wireless transmission capabilities. That is, existing technologies already include control centers capable of wireless transmission and wireless modules connected to them; therefore, this application will not describe them in detail.

[0022] For details, please refer to Figure 1 The system control switch includes one wireless module antenna and two rocker switches. The two rocker switches are operated by buttons to manually control the intelligent dimming and energy-saving system to turn on and off. The one wireless module antenna sends the on and off signals to the lamp post control device and the radar vehicle detector.

[0023] Further reference Figure 2 The radar vehicle detector includes one wireless module antenna and three lidars. The three lidars are set to detect the horizontal and vertical angles. They measure the phase difference between the transmission and reception of the modulated wave using the time-of-flight principle to calculate the time of flight, thereby determining whether the target has passed within the test angle and test distance. When the target has passed, a light-on signal is issued. When no target has passed, the device is in standby mode by default. The wireless module sends the light-on signal to the lamp post control device.

[0024] Further reference Figure 3The lamp post control device comprises a wireless module antenna, four AC contactors, a switching power supply, and a lamp post control board. The wireless module antenna feeds back the received light-on signal to the lamp post control board. The lamp post control board controls the relay attraction after calculation. Since the lamp post lighting belongs to strong current electrical equipment, the relay contact capacity is limited and cannot directly control the large current circuit. Therefore, the four AC contactors are connected with the lamp post lighting circuit, that is, the weak end of the four AC contactors is connected with the relay, and the attraction and disconnection actions are synchronized. When the lamp post control board controls the relay attraction, the four AC contactors are also attracted. The strong end of the four AC contactors is connected with the lamp post circuit, thereby realizing the light-on action of the lamp post. In addition, the lamp post control board is provided with a delay light-off function. When the wireless module antenna does not feed back the light-on signal to the lamp post control board for a period of time, the lamp post control board controls the relay disconnection after the end of the set delay time, and the four AC contactors are disconnected synchronously, so that the lamp post is turned off. The switching power supply is connected with the 220V strong current circuit of the lamp post to supply weak current for the four AC contactors and the lamp post control board.

[0025] Further, with reference to Figures 4-7 The solar power supply device comprises a solar charging and discharging controller, a storage battery, an electric box, a solar photovoltaic panel, an integrated mounting bracket, a stand, a red light emitting diode, a red-green-blue color changing light emitting diode, and a green light emitting diode. The surface panel of the solar charging and discharging controller is provided with the red light emitting diode, the red-green-blue color changing light emitting diode, and the green light emitting diode. When the solar photovoltaic panel charges the storage battery, the red light emitting diode is bright red. When the storage battery has 25% of the remaining power, the red-green-blue color changing light emitting diode is bright red. When the storage battery has 50% of the remaining power, the red-green-blue color changing light emitting diode is bright blue. When the storage battery has 75% of the remaining power, the red-green-blue color changing light emitting diode is bright green. When the storage battery is in the discharging mode, the green light emitting diode is bright green. The solar charging and discharging controller and the storage battery are fixedly installed in the electric box. The radar vehicle detector, the electric box, and the solar photovoltaic panel are installed on the integrated mounting bracket. The integrated mounting bracket is fixed on the stand.
