TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of logistics transportation, especially relates to a transport case and vehicle. BACKGROUND
[0002] In today's economic environment, the logistics transportation industry plays a crucial role. It is responsible for efficiently and safely transporting various goods from supply locations to demand locations, ensuring the smooth operation of the supply chain. During the logistics transportation process, the transport case, as a key carrier for carrying goods, its safety and functionality are of great concern. Among them, the types of goods in the transport case are diverse, and some of them have the risk of spontaneous combustion. For example, some chemical reagents, biological products, electronic products, etc. Once spontaneous combustion occurs, if it cannot be detected in time and effective measures are taken, it is likely to cause a fire, resulting in serious loss of goods, and even may endanger the life safety of the transportation tool, the surrounding environment and personnel.
[0003] Currently, in order to deal with this potential danger, setting up a combustion alarm device in the transport case has become a common preventive measure. These combustion alarm devices are usually based on various sensor technologies, such as smoke sensors, temperature sensors, etc., for real-time monitoring of the environmental conditions inside the transport case. When detecting abnormal smoke concentration or temperature rise, the alarm device will timely send an alarm signal to notify relevant personnel to take appropriate measures, such as checking the transport case, evacuating surrounding personnel, taking fire-fighting actions, etc.
[0004] However, the environment of the transport case in the logistics transportation scene is extremely variable and complex. These complex environmental factors bring great challenges to the normal work of the combustion alarm device. In the actual logistics transportation process, the problem of combustion alarm not in time often occurs. INVENTION CONTENTS
[0005] Based on the above technical status, the utility model provides a kind of transport case and vehicle, can deal with more transport environment, when the goods in the transport case burns, timely alarm.
[0006] According to the first aspect of the utility model embodiment, a transport case is provided, comprising: a box body forming an accommodation space inside, and a combustion alarm device, the combustion alarm device comprises: a temperature detection element, at least part of the temperature detection element is arranged inside the accommodation space, for detecting the temperature of the accommodation space;Communication element connected with the temperature detection element, for sending alarm signal in the case where the temperature detection element detects that the temperature of the accommodation space exceeds temperature threshold value;Signal enhancement element connected with the communication element, for signal enhancement to the alarm signal sent by the communication element.
[0007] According to the second aspect of the embodiment of the present application, a vehicle is provided, comprising: a carriage; the transport box as described in the first aspect located in the carriage; a driver alarm element located in the cab of the vehicle and connected with the communication element or the signal enhancement element of the transport box, used for receiving the alarm signal after signal enhancement and outputting an alarm.
[0008] Based on the above, the transport box provided by the present application can detect the temperature of the accommodation space through the temperature detection element in the combustion alarm device, and further determine whether the goods in the transport box are on fire through the detected temperature. The detected temperature exceeding the temperature threshold is considered as combustion. The communication element of the combustion alarm device is connected with the temperature detection element, so that an alarm signal can be sent when the goods in the transport box are on fire. Considering the complexity of the transportation environment, the alarm signal may not be successfully transmitted. The combustion alarm device is further provided with a signal enhancement element connected with the communication element to enhance the alarm signal. Especially in the transportation environment affecting signal transmission, the probability of successfully transmitting the alarm signal is greatly increased, and the successfully transmitted alarm signal can be presented to the staff in time by the monitoring device, so that the staff can intervene and handle in time. Therefore, the transport box provided by the present application can cope with more transportation environments and alarm in time when the goods in the transport box are on fire.

[0015] With reference to the drawings of the embodiments of the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all the other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work under the premise of the present application, all belong to the scope of protection of the present application.
[0016] As described in the background, the safety of the transport box is of great significance. The combustion alarm device is arranged in the transport box, which can realize timely alarm of combustion in most transport environments. However, the transport environment of the transport box is usually complex and changeable during the whole transport process. In some scenarios, the transport box may be in a transport environment affecting signal transmission for a short time. For example, in some remote areas or near forests, the network signal is weak. When the transport box is in such a transport environment, it is easy to fail to transmit the alarm signal in the form of network signal. In some scenarios, the transport box may be a special box body of all-metal or the carriage of the transport vehicle is a thickened and sealed metal body, and the network signal is also difficult to transmit in such an environment.
[0017] In order to alarm in time when the goods combustion occurs, some solutions are to arrange a reminding device, such as a buzzer, on the transport box. When the goods combustion occurs, the reminding device reminds the nearby staff. However, there are not always staff near the transport box. For example, after the transport box is unloaded from the transport vehicle, the staff will leave the unloading area. Even if the reminding device reminds, it is useless because there is no staff nearby. And in order to ensure that the reminding device can remind the nearby staff as much as possible, the reminding device needs to work for a long time when it sends a reminder. This will greatly consume the power of the power supply device, so the power supply device needs to be replaced frequently. Or, in order to ensure that the power supply device has enough power, it needs to be made very large.
[0018] To address the aforementioned technical limitations, this invention proposes a transport container whose combustion alarm device has a temperature detection element at least partially located within the container's containment space. This allows for the detection of the temperature within the containment space, and the determination of whether the goods inside the transport container are burning based on the detected temperature. A temperature exceeding a threshold is considered a combustion event. The communication element of the combustion alarm device is connected to the temperature detection element, enabling it to issue an alarm signal when the goods inside the transport container are burning. Considering the complexity of transport environments, alarm signals may not be successfully transmitted. Therefore, the combustion alarm device also includes a signal amplification element connected to the communication element to amplify the alarm signal. This significantly increases the probability of successful alarm signal transmission, especially in transport environments where signal transmission is affected. Successfully transmitted alarm signals can be promptly presented to personnel by monitoring equipment, allowing for timely intervention. Therefore, the transport container provided by this invention can handle a wider range of transport environments and provide timely alarms when goods inside the container are burning.
[0019] The processor provided by this utility model will be described in detail below.
[0020] According to one aspect of this utility model, a transport box is provided. It is worth noting that a transport box can be understood as a container or tool used for loading, protecting, and transporting goods. The design and material selection of the transport box depend on factors such as the nature, weight, volume, and mode of transport of the goods. For example, common transport boxes include wooden boxes, cardboard boxes, plastic boxes, and metal boxes. The transport box described in this embodiment can be any type of transport box, and its shape is not limited to any particular type. Figure 1 The shape is shown. In some embodiments, the transport container is a logistics transport container. The logistics transport container focuses more on a specific type of container used in logistics transportation. Optionally, the transport container in this embodiment can be a transport container designed for flammable goods, such as a flame-retardant container, but is not limited thereto. For example, it can also be a transport container designed for flammable chemicals, solvents, chemical principles, textiles, electronic products, etc.
[0021] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the transport box provided in this embodiment includes: a box body 100 forming an internal accommodating space and a combustion alarm device 200, which includes: a temperature detection element ( Figure 1 (Not all shown) A communication element 210 connected to a temperature sensing element, and a signal enhancement element 220 connected to the communication element 210. In some embodiments, the communication element 210 may be integrated into a circuit board, which is then fixed to the housing 100. Furthermore, the signal enhancement element 220 is connected to the communication element 210 via the circuit board, but this is not a limitation.
[0022] At least a portion of the temperature sensing element is disposed within the containing space for detecting the temperature of the containing space. For example... Figure 2 As shown, the portion 231 of the temperature detection element located inside the containment space can sense the temperature inside the containment space, thereby achieving the purpose of temperature detection. This temperature detection element includes, but is not limited to, a temperature sensor. This application can consider a situation where the temperature of the containment space exceeds a temperature threshold as evidence that the goods inside the containment space have combusted. The specific value of the temperature threshold can be set based on experience. For example, if historical summer temperature data for the logistics service area does not exceed 50°C, and the temperature measured when the vehicle compartment is exposed to direct sunlight does not exceed 80°C, then a temperature value slightly higher than 80°C (e.g., 100°C) can be selected as the temperature threshold, thereby effectively distinguishing between ambient temperature and the spontaneous combustion heat of the goods. Specifically, after determining the temperature threshold, a corresponding temperature detection element is selected based on the temperature threshold.
[0023] The communication element 210 is used to issue an alarm signal when the temperature detection element detects that the temperature of the containment space exceeds a temperature threshold. The alarm signal indicates a need for a fire alarm and carries an alarm identifier. This alarm signal can be in any data format, as long as the electronic device receiving the alarm signal can recognize that the goods inside the transport container are burning. For example, the alarm signal can be text containing the word "alarm," an image containing flames, or even a warning voice message.
[0024] The signal amplification element 220 is used to amplify the alarm signal emitted by the communication element 210. By amplifying the alarm signal, at least one of the following can be increased: signal strength, penetration power, and propagation distance, but it is not limited to these: The specific method of signal amplification is related to the transmission method of the alarm signal. For example, when the alarm signal is transmitted via a mobile network, it can be amplified using an antenna. Similarly, when the alarm signal is transmitted via Bluetooth technology, it can be amplified using a Bluetooth signal amplifier or a Bluetooth signal power amplifier; these are just a few examples.
[0025] It should be noted that in some embodiments, the temperature detection element can directly output the detected temperature to the communication element 210, and the communication element 210 determines whether the temperature of the accommodation space exceeds the temperature threshold. In other embodiments, the temperature detection element can determine whether the temperature of the accommodation space exceeds the temperature threshold after detecting the temperature, and then output the determination result to the communication element 210. The specific form of outputting the determination result to the communication element 210 is not limited here. For example, the temperature detection element can output the determination result to the communication element 210 through a pre-agreed communication protocol. For another example, the temperature detection element can also output a power supply signal as the determination result to the communication element 210 when the determination result indicates that the temperature threshold is exceeded. After receiving the power supply signal, the communication element 210 starts to work, and considers that the temperature of the accommodation space exceeds the temperature threshold. Specifically, the temperature detection element sends a power supply signal to the communication element 210 when detecting that the temperature of the accommodation space exceeds the temperature threshold. After receiving the power supply signal, the communication element 210 is activated, and then generates and sends an alarm signal.
[0026] The communication element 210 can send the alarm signal to the outside through a mobile communication network, or send the alarm signal to the outside through a wireless local area network. The wireless local area network includes a local area network constructed by Bluetooth technology, WIFI technology or ZigBee technology. That is, the communication element 210 is a mobile network communication module or a wireless local area network communication module. It can be understood that the difference of the communication element 210 leads to the difference of the signal enhancement element 220. For example, when the communication element 210 is a mobile network communication module, the signal enhancement element 220 can be a passive antenna or an active signal amplifier. When the communication element 210 is a wireless local area network communication module, and the alarm signal is sent through Bluetooth technology, the signal enhancement element 220 can be a Bluetooth signal amplifier or a Bluetooth signal power amplifier. As for the mobile network communication module, it includes but is not limited to a 3G communication module, a 4G communication module and a 5G communication module.
[0027] It is worth noting that when the communication element 210 sends an alarm signal, the alarm signal can be sent to the signal enhancement element 220, and the signal enhancement element 220 enhances the alarm signal and sends the enhanced alarm signal through the mobile communication network or the wireless local area network, so that the external device can receive the alarm signal through the mobile communication network or the wireless local area network. In some embodiments, when the communication element 210 sends an alarm signal, the alarm signal can be sent to the signal enhancement element 220, and the signal enhancement element 220 enhances the alarm signal and outputs the enhanced alarm signal to the communication element 210. Finally, the communication element 210 sends the enhanced alarm signal through the mobile communication network or the wireless local area network, so that the external device can receive the alarm signal through the mobile communication network or the wireless local area network.
[0028] In some embodiments, when the goods in the transport box are on fire, the temperature detection element will detect that the temperature of the accommodation space exceeds the temperature threshold. Then, the temperature detection element can send a power supply signal to the communication element 210. After receiving the power supply signal, the communication element 210 is activated, and then generates an alarm signal and sends the alarm signal to the signal enhancement element 220. The signal enhancement element 220 enhances the received alarm signal and sends the enhanced alarm signal through the network, so that the external device can receive the alarm signal through the network, and the transport box is monitored. The staff can know the situation of the goods on fire in time through the external device.
[0029] The temperature detection element in the combustion alarm device 200 of the transport box provided by the utility model is at least partially arranged inside the accommodation space, so that the temperature of the accommodation space can be detected, and then it is judged whether the goods in the transport box are on fire through the detected temperature. The detected temperature exceeding the temperature threshold is regarded as on fire. The communication element 210 of the combustion alarm device 200 is connected with the temperature detection element, so that an alarm signal can be sent when the goods in the transport box are on fire. Considering the complexity of the transportation environment, the alarm signal can not be successfully transmitted. The combustion alarm device 200 is also provided with the signal enhancement element 220 connected with the communication element 210, so as to enhance the alarm signal. Especially in the transportation environment affecting signal transmission, the probability of successfully transmitting the alarm signal is greatly increased, and the successfully transmitted alarm signal can be presented to the staff in time by the monitoring device, so that the staff can intervene and handle in time. Therefore, the transport box provided by the utility model can cope with more transportation environments and alarm in time when the goods in the transport box are on fire.
[0030] As Figures 3-4As shown, in order to reduce the consumption of the electric quantity of the combustion alarm device 200 and delay the continuous use time of the combustion alarm device 200, in some embodiments of the present application, the temperature detection element comprises: a temperature control switch 231 and a battery 232, the temperature control switch 231 is arranged in the inside of the accommodating space; the communication element 210, the temperature control switch 231 and the battery 232 are connected in series.
[0031] Wherein, the temperature control switch 231 is adjusted to the closed state when detecting that the temperature of the accommodating space exceeds the temperature threshold value, and the communication element 210, the temperature control switch 231 and the battery 232 form a loop.
[0032] It should be noted that, Figure 3 And Figure 4 As shown in the schematic diagram of the outside of the box body 100 and the inside of the box body 100. The temperature control switch 231 is a temperature control switch. The temperature control switch 231 is in the normally open state, and only in the case that the temperature exceeds the temperature threshold value, the temperature control switch 231 will be changed to the closed state. Again, when the temperature control switch 231 is in the closed state, the communication element 210, the temperature control switch 231 and the battery 232 can form a loop, so that the communication element 210 consumes the electric quantity in the battery 232. Therefore, in most of the time, the goods in the transport box are not burned, at this time, the electric quantity of the battery 232 will not be consumed. In some embodiments, the temperature control switch 231 and the box body 100 are provided with a fixed support 235, and the temperature control switch 231 can be detachably fixed on the box body 100 through the fixed support 235.
[0033] It can be understood that the signal enhancement element 220 can be a passive device, that is, no power supply is needed, at this time, the signal enhancement element 220 does not need to be connected with the battery 232. The signal enhancement element 220 can also be an active device, that is, power supply is needed, at this time, the signal enhancement element 220 is connected with the battery 232, and the signal enhancement element 220, the temperature control switch 231 and the battery 232 are connected in series.
[0034] As for the number of the battery 232, it can be one or more, Figure 3 The two batteries 232 shown in the figure are not limited. Preferably, the number of the battery 232 is two. In some embodiments, the combustion alarm device 200 further comprises: a battery box 233, and the battery 232 is assembled in the battery box 233. In the case of power supply by the battery 232, the overall size of the combustion alarm device 200 is small. For example, the overall size of the combustion alarm device 200 can be 7*5*4 cm, and the weight is 70 g.
[0035] In the embodiments of the present application, the electric quantity of the battery 232 will not be consumed when the goods in the transport box are not burned, so as to reduce the consumption of the electric quantity of the combustion alarm device 200 and delay the continuous use time of the combustion alarm device 200.
[0036] In order to replace the battery 232 with low power in time, and improve the stability of the combustion alarm device 200, in some embodiments of the utility model, the combustion alarm device 200 further comprises:
[0037] The power detection element connected with the battery 232 is used to detect the residual power of the battery 232.
[0038] The power prompt device connected with the power detection element and the battery 232 is used to receive the residual power and output the residual power.
[0039] It should be explained that, as to the power detection element, it can realize its function by using the currently known technical means for detecting the residual power of the battery 232. For example, the residual power of the battery 232 is detected by internal resistance test, and the residual power of the battery 232 is detected by using the correlation between the electrolyte solution conductivity and the battery 232 power. Herein, no limitation is made.
[0040] The power prompt device is any electronic element capable of prompting the residual power. For example, the power prompt device can be a display screen, so that the residual power can be directly displayed. The power prompt device can be a voice playing device, so that the residual power can be output by playing voice. In some embodiments, as shown in the figure, the power prompt device comprises a plurality of power indicator lamps 240; the power prompt device is used to receive the residual power and light up the corresponding number of power indicator lamps 240. For example, when the residual power is indicated by four power indicator lamps, one power indicator lamp is lighted up every 25% of the increase of the residual power. For example, when the residual power is 50%, two power indicator lamps are lighted up; when the residual power is 100%, four power indicator lamps are lighted up. Figure 3
[0041] In some embodiments, in order to avoid the continuous consumption of the battery 232 by the power detection element and the power prompt device, the power detection element and the power prompt device are connected with the battery 232 through the temperature control switch 231. Thus, when the temperature control switch 231 is closed, the detection and output of the residual power can be carried out. Alternatively, the combustion alarm device 200 further comprises a maintenance element used to short-circuit the temperature control switch 231. For example, the maintenance element can be a metal wire, which is respectively overlapped on the metal sheets at both ends of the temperature control switch 231, so as to realize the short-circuit of the temperature control switch 231.
[0042] In the embodiments of the utility model, the residual power of the battery 232 can be known through the power prompt device, so that the maintenance can be realized, and the battery 232 with low power can be replaced in time, and the stability of the combustion alarm device 200 can be improved.
[0043] In some embodiments of the utility model, the combustion alarm device 200 further comprises:
[0044] The alarm module is configured to receive the enhanced alarm signal and output an alarm.
[0045] It should be noted that the alarm module is connected with the communication element 210 or the signal enhancement element 220, and is capable of receiving the enhanced alarm signal and outputting an alarm. If the enhanced alarm signal is sent out by the communication element 210, the alarm module is connected with the communication element 210 to receive the corresponding alarm signal. If the enhanced alarm signal is sent out by the signal enhancement element 220, the alarm module is connected with the signal enhancement element 220 to receive the corresponding alarm signal.
[0046] The specific structure of the alarm module is not limited herein. For example, the alarm module can be a terminal device (e.g., a mobile phone, a computer, etc.) with a display screen. After receiving the alarm signal, the terminal device can display relevant information to output an alarm. For example, the terminal device can display the relevant information as shown in FIG. 2, which displays the relevant words of the alarm information and the alarm time. The alarm module can also be a voice playing device or a buzzer. After receiving the alarm signal, the voice playing device plays a specified voice to output an alarm. After receiving the alarm signal, the buzzer starts to ring to output an alarm. Figure 5
[0047] It should be noted that the position of the alarm module is related to the sending mode of the alarm signal. If the alarm signal is sent by a mobile communication network, the alarm module can be arranged in a special monitoring place where the staff monitors the state of the transport box in real time. If the alarm signal is sent by a wireless local area network, the alarm module can be arranged on the transport vehicle.
[0048] In the embodiments of the present application, when the goods in the transport box are on fire, the alarm module can output an alarm to remind the staff near the alarm module so that the staff can discover the fire in time.
[0049] To discover the fault of the communication element 210 in time and improve the stability of the combustion alarm device 200, in some embodiments of the present application, the combustion alarm device 200 further comprises:
[0050] The signal detection element connected with the communication element 210 is configured to generate an alarm prompt information after detecting that the communication element 210 sends an alarm signal.
[0051] The signal prompt device connected with the signal detection element is configured to receive the alarm prompt information and output the alarm prompt information.
[0052] It should be noted that, as for the signal detection element, it can adopt the currently known technical means to detect whether the signal is successfully sent, which is not limited here.
[0053] The signal prompting device is any electronic element capable of prompting that the alarm signal has been sent. For example, the signal prompting device can be a display screen, so that the text of "the alarm signal has been sent" can be directly displayed. The signal prompting device can be a voice playing device, so that the content that the alarm signal has been sent can be output by playing the voice. In some embodiments, as shown in the figure, the signal prompting device includes at least one signal indicator 250; the signal prompting device is used to receive the alarm prompting information and light up the signal indicator 250. For example, when indicating whether the alarm signal has been sent through one signal indicator 250, if the alarm signal has been sent, the signal indicator 250 is lighted up. If the alarm signal has not been sent, the signal indicator 250 is in an off state. Figure 3
[0054] In some embodiments, in the case where the temperature detection element includes the temperature control switch 231 and the battery 232 in the above-mentioned embodiments, in order to avoid the continuous consumption of the battery 232 by the signal detection element and the signal prompting device, the signal detection element and the signal prompting device are both connected with the battery 232 through the temperature control switch 231. Thus, when the temperature control switch 231 is closed, whether the communication element 210 sends the alarm signal can be detected. Alternatively, the combustion alarm device 200 further includes a maintenance element for short-circuiting the temperature control switch 231. For example, the maintenance element can be a metal wire, which is respectively clamped on the metal sheets at both ends of the temperature control switch 231 to realize the short-circuiting of the temperature control switch 231. After the short-circuiting of the temperature control switch 231, if the signal prompting device does not output the alarm prompting information, it indicates that the communication element 210 is faulty and needs to be replaced in time.
[0055] In the embodiments of the utility model, whether the alarm signal has been sent can be known through the signal prompting device, so that the maintenance can be realized, the fault of the communication element 210 can be found in time, and the stability of the combustion alarm device 200 is improved.
[0056] In order to facilitate the staff to eliminate the fire in the transport box in time, in some embodiments of the utility model, the combustion alarm device 200 further includes:
[0057] The positioning element connected with the communication element 210 is used to send the position information of the current position of the positioning element in the case where the communication element 210 sends the alarm signal.
[0058] It should be noted that the alarm information sent by the communication element 210 can indicate that a fire occurs in the transport box. In order to eliminate the fire in time, the position of the transport box needs to be determined. Therefore, the combustion alarm device 200 further comprises a positioning element. The positioning element can send the position information it locates in real time or periodically. In the embodiment, in order to avoid excessive power consumption of the positioning element, the positioning can be performed only when the fire occurs, and the position information is sent by the communication element 210 together with the alarm signal. The positioning element includes but is not limited to a GPS (Global Positioning System) positioning chip, a Bluetooth positioning beacon, etc.
[0059] In some embodiments, when the communication element 210 is a 3G communication module, a 4G communication module or a 5G communication module, base station positioning can be performed by the communication element 210 to determine the position information of the transport box, so that an additional positioning element is not needed. The process of base station positioning by the 3G communication module, the 4G communication module or the 5G communication module can be that the distances between the 3G communication module, the 4G communication module or the 5G communication module and multiple base stations are measured, and then the position of the transport box is calculated by using a triangulation method, which is not described in detail here.
[0060] In the embodiments of the present application, when a fire occurs in the transport box, the position information of the transport box is sent together with the alarm information, so that the staff can eliminate the fire in the transport box in time.
[0061] Continuing to refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , in order to reduce the influence of the combustion alarm device 200 on the box body 100, in some embodiments of the present application, a box cover 110 that can be opened and closed is arranged above the box body 100, a recess 111 recessed toward the accommodation space is arranged on the box cover 110, and the parts of the communication element 210, the signal enhancement element 220 and the temperature detection element located outside the accommodation space are arranged in the recess 111.
[0062] It should be noted that, during the process of carrying and stacking the transport boxes, the combustion alarm device 200 is located in the recess 111, and the volume exposed outside is small. Therefore, the scratching of the combustion alarm device 200 can be greatly reduced. In some embodiments, when the box cover 110 is in a closed state, the maximum height of the transport box is determined by the box cover 110, and the highest part of the box cover 110 is higher than the highest part of the combustion alarm device 200, so that the combustion alarm device 200 can be completely hidden in the recess 111.
[0063] In some embodiments, the box cover 110 of the box 100 can be arranged on the side or bottom of the box 100, and the combustion alarm device 200 can still be arranged in the recess 111 of the box cover 110. Of course, the recess 111 recessed to the containing space can also be arranged at any position of the box 100 except the box cover 110, so that the combustion alarm device 200 is arranged in the recess 111.
[0064] In the embodiments of the present application, the combustion alarm device 200 arranged in the recess 111 of the box cover 110 can reduce the influence of the combustion alarm device 200 on the box 100.
[0065] In order to protect the communication element 210 and the signal enhancement element 220 from being damaged by fire, in some embodiments of the present application, the parts of the communication element 210, the signal enhancement element 220 and the temperature detection element located outside the containing space are arranged in the shell of the fire-retardant material.
[0066] It should be noted that in the case of putting the communication element 210, the signal enhancement element 220 and the temperature detection element into the containing space of the transport box, if the goods in the containing space are on fire, the communication element 210 and the signal enhancement element 220 are easy to be burned out, so as to be unable to be used again. Therefore, the communication element 210 and the signal enhancement element 220 can be protected by the shell of the fire-retardant material. In this way, even if the temperature of the transport box is very high, the shell of the fire-retardant material can well protect the communication element 210 and the signal enhancement element 220. Even the combustion alarm device 200 can be arranged inside the transport box, and even if the goods are on fire, the shell of the fire-retardant material can protect the communication element 210 and the signal enhancement element 220 for a period of time. In the above embodiments, the temperature detection element includes a temperature control switch 231 and a battery 232. At this time, the communication element 210, the signal enhancement element 220 and the battery 232 are all wrapped in the shell of the fire-retardant material.
[0067] In the embodiments of the present application, the communication element 210 and the signal enhancement element 220 are wrapped by the shell of the fire-retardant material, so as to protect the communication element 210 and the signal enhancement element 220 from being damaged by fire.
