Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of gate opening time detection equipment, specifically relating to an auxiliary device for detecting the opening time of a gate. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, barrier gates are widely used in modern life in parking lots, residential area entrances and exits, toll stations, warehouse gates, and other places to control vehicle entry and exit. The opening time of the barrier gate is a crucial parameter, directly affecting vehicle throughput and safety. If the opening time is too short, vehicles may not be able to pass smoothly, leading to congestion; if the opening time is too long, it wastes resources and increases safety risks. Furthermore, if a barrier gate malfunctions and fails to close after opening, management personnel will not receive timely feedback, resulting in the barrier gate becoming uncontrollable.

[0003] Currently, many barrier gates lack monitoring functionality for gate opening duration, relying instead on personnel to detect and report issues, resulting in delayed problem detection and complex processes. Therefore, developing a high-precision auxiliary device that can detect and provide real-time warnings for prolonged gate opening is urgently needed. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide an auxiliary device for detecting the opening time of a barrier gate, which can detect the opening time.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: an auxiliary device for detecting the opening time of a barrier gate, including a barrier gate, a sensor body, a data processing component, and a remote control center. The sensor body includes a housing and a tilt sensor, which is installed in the housing. The barrier gate includes a base and a movable rod, which is hinged to the base. A mounting groove is formed on the movable rod, and the housing is installed in the mounting groove. The data processing component is installed in the base and is electrically connected to the tilt sensor. The data processing component is communicatively connected to the remote control center.

[0006] Furthermore, the mounting groove is located close to the base.

[0007] Furthermore, the data processing component includes a microcontroller module, a timer, a storage module, a communication module, and a power module, wherein the microcontroller module is electrically connected to the timer, the storage module, the communication module, and the power module.

[0008] Furthermore, a first threaded hole is provided at the bottom of the mounting groove, and notches are formed at the four corners of the outer casing. The notches penetrate the upper surface and two sides of the outer casing, and a second threaded hole is formed at the bottom of the notches. The first threaded hole and the second threaded hole are connected by screws.

[0009] Furthermore, the outer shell has solid areas on both sides, screw holes on both sides of the upper surface of the outer shell, and a square hole below the screw holes. The two side walls of the outer shell have clearance through holes, which are connected to the square holes. A limiting groove is formed on the side of the clearance through hole facing the square hole. A stop block is formed in the clearance through hole, and a stop protrusion is formed on the circumference of the stop block. The stop protrusion is located in the limiting groove. The side of the stop block facing the square hole is a first inclined surface. A long screw is installed in the screw hole, and a square top block is hinged to the bottom of the long screw. A second inclined surface is formed at the bottom of the square top block. The first and second inclined surfaces are adapted to each other. The square top block moves downward to stop the stop block and push out of the clearance through hole.

[0010] Furthermore, the number of screw holes is four, and they are arranged in a matrix.

[0011] Furthermore, limit plates are formed on both sides of the lower surface of the outer shell, and the distance between the two limit plates is equal to the width of the movable rod. Screw holes are formed on the limit plates, and screws are installed in the screw holes.

[0012] Furthermore, the mounting groove is located on the upper surface of the movable rod, the movable rod is made of ferromagnetic metal, and a magnet is provided below the outer casing.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] When the barrier gate receives an opening command, the movable arm begins to rise. The tilt sensor monitors the tilt angle change in real time and transmits the data to the data processing component. Upon receiving the tilt angle change data, the data processing component starts timing when the tilt angle reaches the set opening threshold. As the barrier gate's movable arm continues to rise, the tilt sensor continuously sends tilt angle data to the data processing component. When the barrier gate is fully open, and the tilt angle reaches the set full-open angle and remains stable (e.g., the stabilization time is set to 2 seconds), the data processing component stops timing, acquires the gate opening duration data, and if the gate opening duration exceeds the threshold, the remote control center issues an alert to the administrator.

Detailed Implementation

[0023] To make the above-mentioned features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, specific embodiments are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings for detailed explanation.

[0024] Example 1

[0025] like Figures 1-3 As shown, this embodiment provides an auxiliary device for detecting the opening time of a barrier gate 1, including a barrier gate 1, a sensor body 2, a data processing component, and a remote control center.

[0026] The barrier gate 1 includes a base 11 and a movable rod 12. The movable rod 12 is hinged to the base 11 and has a mounting groove formed on its upper surface, which is close to the base 11.

[0027] The sensor body 2 includes a housing 21 and a tilt sensor. The tilt sensor is installed inside the housing 21, and the housing 21 is installed in a mounting groove. Specifically, a first threaded hole is provided at the bottom of the mounting groove, and notches 211 are formed at the four corners of the housing 21. The notches 211 penetrate the upper surface and two sides of the housing 21, and a second threaded hole 212 is formed at the bottom of the notches 211. The first threaded hole and the second threaded hole 212 are connected by screws.

[0028] The data processing component is installed inside the base 11 and is electrically connected to the tilt sensor. The data processing component is used to receive the tilt signal from the tilt sensor and record the gate opening time. Specifically, the data processing component includes a microcontroller module, a timer, a storage module, a communication module, and a power module. The communication module is a LoRa communication module. The microcontroller module is electrically connected to the timer, storage module, communication module, and power module.

[0029] The data processing component communicates with the remote control center. The remote control center includes a LoRa gateway and terminal devices.

[0030] Working Principle: When the barrier gate 1 receives an opening command, the movable lever 12 begins to rise. The tilt sensor monitors the tilt angle change in real time and transmits the data to the microcontroller module. Upon receiving the tilt angle change data, the microcontroller starts a timer when the tilt angle reaches the set opening threshold. As the movable lever 12 of the barrier gate 1 continues to rise, the tilt sensor continuously sends tilt angle data to the microcontroller module. When the barrier gate 19 is fully open, and the tilt angle reaches the set full-open angle and remains stable (e.g., the stabilization time is set to 2 seconds), the microcontroller module stops the timer and acquires the opening duration data. The microcontroller module stores the acquired opening duration data and the corresponding tilt angle change data in the storage module. Simultaneously, this data is sent to the terminal device via the LoRa communication module and LoRa gateway. When the opening duration of barrier gate 1 exceeds the threshold, the system triggers an alert to the administrator.

[0031] Example 2

[0032] like Figures 1-2 and Figures 4-5 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 lies in the connection structure between the outer shell 21 and the mounting groove. The two sides of the outer shell 21 are solid areas. Two screw holes 213 are opened on both sides of the upper surface of the outer shell 21, for a total of four screw holes 213 arranged in a matrix. A square hole 214 is opened below the screw holes 213. The two side walls of the outer shell 21 have clearance through holes 215, which are connected to the square hole 214. A limiting groove 21 is formed on the side of the clearance through hole 215 facing the square hole 214. 6. A stop block 31 is formed in the clearance through hole 215. A stop protrusion 311 is formed on the circumference of the stop block 31. The stop protrusion 311 is located in the limiting groove 216. The side of the stop block 31 facing the square hole 214 is a first inclined surface. A long screw 3 is provided in the screw hole 213. A square top block 32 is hinged to the bottom of the long screw 3. A second inclined surface is formed at the bottom of the square top block 32. The first inclined surface and the second inclined surface are matched. The square top block 32 moves downward to stop the stop block 31 and push out the clearance through hole 215.

[0033] Preferably, the outer side of the abutment block 31 can be connected to a rubber block.

[0034] The design of this embodiment is because after the installation groove is opened on the movable rod 12, there may be a situation where the wall thickness is insufficient, making it impossible to continue to open screw holes 213 on the movable rod 12 for screw connection. Therefore, this solution rotates the long screw 3, causing the long screw 3 to drive the square top block 32 to move downward. Under the action of the first inclined surface and the second inclined surface, it abuts the abutting block 31 to move outward, so that the surface of the abutting block 31 abuts the inner side wall of the installation groove to achieve the locking of the outer shell 21.

[0035] Example 3

[0036] like Figures 1-2 and Figure 6 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that the connection structure between the outer shell 21 and the mounting groove is different. Limiting plates 217 are formed on both sides of the lower surface of the outer shell 21. The distance between the two limiting plates 217 is equal to the width of the movable rod 12. Screw holes 213 are formed on the limiting plates 217, and screws 4 are provided in the screw holes 213.

[0037] This embodiment is designed to accommodate various movable rods 12. Some movable rods 12 cannot have mounting slots made on them. The limiting plate 217 is fitted onto both sides of the movable rod 12, and then the screws 4 are tightened, with the screws 4 pressing against the side wall of the movable rod 12 to achieve fixation.

[0038] Example 4

[0039] like Figures 1-2 and Figure 7 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 lies in the connection structure between the outer shell 21 and the mounting groove. The mounting groove is located on the upper surface of the movable rod 12, which is made of ferromagnetic metal. A magnet 5 is provided below the outer shell 21.

[0040] The housing 21 is fixed in place by being attracted by magnet 5 within the mounting slot. The mounting slot restricts the horizontal movement of the housing 21, while magnet 5 restricts the vertical movement of the housing 21.

[0041] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles and main features of this invention, as well as its advantages. Those skilled in the art should understand that this invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this invention. Various changes and modifications can be made to this invention without departing from its spirit and scope. All such changes and modifications fall within the scope of this invention as defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
