Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a lightning warning device, and more particularly to a lightning warning device with an integrated probe applied in the field of lightning warning devices. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of modern technology and infrastructure, the impact of lightning disasters on human society is becoming increasingly severe. As an important device for preventing lightning disasters, the performance of the core component of lightning warning devices, the integrated probe, directly affects the accuracy and timeliness of the warning.

[0003] Chinese patent CN219417606U discloses a lightning monitoring and early warning device, including a support rod with a fixed base at the bottom. A groove is formed on one side of the top of the support rod, and a lightning detector is fixedly connected to the support rod at the groove. An L-shaped plate is slidably connected to the outside of one side of the support rod below the lightning detector. A rubber layer is fixedly connected to one side of the L-shaped plate, and a spring strip is fixedly connected to the bottom of the L-shaped plate. A fixed plate is fixedly connected to the outside of the support rod below the spring strip, and the fixed plate is fixedly connected to the spring strip. A lightning detection probe is provided at the top of the lightning detector.

[0004] Most integrated probes are highly susceptible to environmental factors such as dust, dirt, and rain during long-term outdoor operation. In areas with frequent sandstorms, a large amount of dust will adhere to the probe surface. Once it accumulates to a certain extent, it will hinder the probe from detecting key parameters such as atmospheric electric field, resulting in inaccurate detection data. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem that this utility model aims to solve in view of the above-mentioned prior art is that most integrated probes are easily affected by environmental factors such as dust, dirt, and rain during long-term outdoor operation. In areas with frequent sandstorms, a large amount of dust will adhere to the probe surface. After accumulating to a certain extent, it will hinder the probe from detecting key parameters such as atmospheric electric field, resulting in inaccurate detection data.

[0006] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a lightning warning device with an integrated probe, comprising a vertical pole, an integrated probe plate fixedly connected to the upper end of the vertical pole, a rotating base plate fixedly connected to the lower end of the integrated probe plate, an electrical guide rail located outside the rotating base plate fixedly connected to the lower end of the integrated probe plate, a sliding ring block fixedly connected to the output end of the electrical guide rail, a gear engagement component rotatably connected to the end of the sliding ring block near the rotating base plate, a metal crossbar fixedly connected to the end of the gear engagement component away from the sliding ring block, a friction brush fixedly connected to the outer end of the metal crossbar, a linkage magnetic rod installed at the end of the gear engagement component away from the sliding ring block, a hinge installed at the lower end of the linkage magnetic rod and the metal crossbar, a magnetic connection between the linkage magnetic rod and the metal crossbar, and a gear ring frame fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating base plate.

[0007] In the aforementioned lightning warning device with integrated probe, this solution reduces manual maintenance costs and frequency through a self-cleaning structure and the collaborative work of multiple components, enhances equipment installation stability and operational reliability, and meets the needs of long-term outdoor monitoring.

[0008] As a further improvement of this application, multiple friction brushes are arranged in a ring, and the friction brushes and the rotating base plate are in contact with each other.

[0009] As a further improvement of this application, a mounting base plate is fixedly connected to the lower end of the vertical pole, and an electrical frame box is fixedly connected to the front end of the vertical pole.

[0010] As a further improvement of this application, a mounting bracket is fixedly connected to the rear end of the vertical pole, and a solar panel is fixedly connected to the end of the mounting bracket away from the vertical pole.

[0011] As a further improvement of this application, the gear ring frame and the gear mating parts are meshed together, with the gear ring frame located between the rotating base plate and the electrical guide rail.

[0012] As a further improvement of this application, a limiting frame is installed at the upper end of the vertical pole, and a liquid storage vertical frame is fixedly connected to the side of the limiting frame near the electrical guide rail.

[0013] As a further improvement of this application, a pressurized nozzle is fixedly connected to the upper end of the liquid storage vertical frame, and the output end of the pressurized nozzle cooperates with the rotating base plate.

[0014] In summary, this solution utilizes a self-cleaning structure and the collaborative operation of multiple components. When the rotating base plate becomes stuck due to dust accumulation, the electric guide rail drives the sliding ring block to move the friction brush. This, combined with the ring-shaped rotating structure formed by the gear ring frame and gear mating parts, increases the cleaning coverage and friction, efficiently removing dust. The cleaning liquid spraying system, consisting of the liquid storage vertical frame and pressurized nozzle, softens the dust, aiding in cleaning and improving the cleaning effect. After cleaning, the linkage magnetic rod and metal crossbar lose their magnetism when de-energized, and the friction brush falls away from the detection area via the hinge, avoiding affecting the detection accuracy of the rotating base plate and ensuring the accuracy of lightning parameter monitoring. This reduces the cost and frequency of manual maintenance. The structural design of the mounting base plate and limiting frame enhances the installation stability and operational reliability of the equipment, meeting the needs of long-term outdoor monitoring.

[0024] The two embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] First implementation method:

[0026] Figures 1-5 A lightning warning device with an integrated probe is shown, comprising a vertical pole 1, an integrated probe plate 5 fixedly connected to the upper end of the vertical pole 1, a rotating base plate 6 fixedly connected to the lower end of the integrated probe plate 5, an electrical guide rail 7 located outside the rotating base plate 6 fixedly connected to the lower end of the integrated probe plate 5, a sliding ring block 11 fixedly connected to the output end of the electrical guide rail 7, a gear engagement component 9 rotatably connected to the end of the sliding ring block 11 near the rotating base plate 6, a metal crossbar 14 fixedly connected to the end of the gear engagement component 9 away from the sliding ring block 11, a friction brush 15 fixedly connected to the outer end of the metal crossbar 14, and a gear ring frame 8 fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating base plate 6.

[0027] Figures 1-5 Multiple friction brushes 15 are arranged in a ring, and the friction brushes 15 and the rotating base plate 6 are in contact with each other. The lower end of the vertical pole 1 is fixedly connected to the mounting base plate 2, the front end of the vertical pole 1 is fixedly connected to the electrical frame box 3, and the rear end of the vertical pole 1 is fixedly connected to the mounting bracket 10. The end of the mounting bracket 10 away from the vertical pole 1 is fixedly connected to the solar panel 4. The gear ring frame 8 and the gear mating part 9 are meshed together. The gear ring frame 8 is located between the rotating base plate 6 and the electrical guide rail 7. The upper end of the vertical pole 1 is equipped with a limiting frame ring 16. The side of the limiting frame ring 16 near the electrical guide rail 7 is fixedly connected to the liquid storage vertical frame 17. The upper end of the liquid storage vertical frame 17 is fixedly connected to the pressurized nozzle 18, and the output end of the pressurized nozzle 18 cooperates with the rotating base plate 6.

[0028] Figures 1-5The diagram illustrates that in this design, the vertical pole 1 serves as the supporting structure for the entire device. It is securely installed in a suitable position via a mounting base 2 fixedly connected to its lower end. The electrical enclosure 3 provides a stable working environment for the internal electrical components. The solar panel 4 converts solar energy into electrical energy, providing power support for the device's operation. The integrated probe plate 5 is the core component for achieving lightning warning functionality. It rotates via a rotating base plate 6 at its lower end to monitor lightning-related parameters from all angles. Under normal circumstances, the rotating base plate 6 can rotate flexibly, ensuring that the integrated probe plate 5 can effectively collect data. However, during actual operation, the rotating base plate 6 may become stuck due to dust accumulation. When this occurs, the device's self-cleaning structure is activated, and the electrical guide rail 7 begins to function. It drives the connected sliding ring block 11 to move. Since the end of the sliding ring block 11 closest to the rotating base plate 6 is rotatably connected to a gear engagement component 9, the movement of the sliding ring block 11 drives the gear engagement component 9 to move. The gear engagement component 9, in turn, interacts with the rotating base plate 6. The gear ring frame 8, fixedly connected to the lower end of the moving base plate 6, meshes with each other. This meshing relationship causes the gear mating part 9 to rotate in a ring shape under the action of the gear ring frame 8 when it moves with the sliding ring block 11. The gear mating part 9 is connected to the metal crossbar 14 through the mounting bracket 10. The outer end of the metal crossbar 14 is fixedly connected to the friction brush 15. Therefore, when the gear mating part 9 rotates in a ring shape, it will cause the friction brush 15 to rotate in a ring shape below the rotating base plate 6. This ring rotation method causes the friction brush 15 and the rotating base plate 6 to rotate in a ring shape. The contact between them is more thorough, thereby increasing the friction and more effectively removing the dust accumulated on the surface of the rotating base plate 6. At the same time, during the cleaning process, the liquid storage vertical frame 17 fixedly connected to one side of the limiting frame 16 starts to work. The pump in the liquid storage vertical frame 17 draws out the cleaning liquid stored inside and sprays it onto the surface of the rotating base plate 6 through the pressurized nozzle 18. The spraying of the cleaning liquid can soften the dust and reduce the adhesion between the dust and the surface of the rotating base plate 6, thereby assisting the friction brush 15 to better complete the cleaning work and improve the self-cleaning effect.

[0029] Second implementation method:

[0030] Figures 6-7A lightning warning device with an integrated probe is shown. A linkage magnetic rod 12 is installed at the end of the gear mating part 9 away from the sliding ring block 11. A hinge 13 is installed at the lower end of the linkage magnetic rod 12 and the metal crossbar 14. The linkage magnetic rod 12 and the metal crossbar 14 are magnetically connected. After the cleaning work is completed, in order to avoid the friction brush 15 affecting the detection accuracy of the rotating base plate 6, the friction brush 15 needs to be removed. At this time, by de-energizing the linkage magnetic rod 12 and the metal crossbar 14, the magnetic connection between them disappears. Since the metal crossbar 14 and the linkage magnetic rod 12 are connected by the hinge 13, after the magnetic connection is lost, the friction brush 15 will fall under the action of gravity through the hinge 13, thereby leaving the detection area of ​​the rotating base plate 6, ensuring that the rotating base plate 6 can continue to accurately detect lightning parameters.

[0031] In light of current practical needs, the above-described embodiments adopted in this application are not limited to these. Any changes made within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art without departing from the concept of this application still fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
