Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of highway monitoring technology, specifically to an automatic monitoring device for foggy highways. Background Technology

[0002] Foggy weather is a significant environmental factor contributing to road traffic accidents. Statistics show that fog accounts for more than 12% of traffic accidents globally each year, especially on highways, mountain roads, and coastal sections, where low visibility can easily lead to serious accidents such as chain-reaction rear-end collisions and vehicles veering out of their lanes.

[0003] In the process of detecting foggy roads, optical sensors are usually used to detect fog. During the detection process, because the fog contains moisture, the water vapor will adhere to the surface of the optical sensor. In addition, dust will be generated when vehicles are driving, which will cause the water vapor and dust to mix and stick to the surface of the sensor, thereby reducing the accuracy of the sensor in the monitoring process. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic monitoring device for foggy highways to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model proposes an automatic monitoring device for foggy highways, including a support rod, a support frame on one side of the support rod, a first connecting rod rotatably connected to the bottom of the support frame, a fog sensor fixedly connected to the bottom of the first connecting rod, a protective cleaning mechanism at the bottom of the fog sensor, and a height adjustment mechanism on one side of the support frame.

[0006] The protective cleaning mechanism includes a protective cleaning component and a drainage component. The protective cleaning component includes a protective cover fixedly connected to the bottom of the fog sensor. Two arc-shaped plates are slidably connected to one side of the protective cover. The two arc-shaped plates are fixedly connected by a rotating shaft, which is embedded in the bottom of the protective cover. A second connecting rod is fixedly connected to one side of one of the arc-shaped plates, and the second connecting rod is fixedly connected to one side of a support frame. A servo motor is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame, and the other end of the first connecting rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor.

[0007] In one example, the drainage assembly includes a first strip-shaped channel formed on one side of the support frame, a first electric telescopic rod fixedly connected to the inner wall of the first strip-shaped channel, and a top plate fixedly connected to the output end of the first electric telescopic rod.

[0008] In one example, the top of the rotating shaft has a through hole, and a rubber plug is inserted into the inner wall of the through hole, with the bottom of the rubber plug fixedly connected to the top of one side of the top plate.

[0009] In one example, the height adjustment mechanism includes a second slot formed on one side of the support rod, a second electric telescopic rod fixedly connected to the inner wall of the second slot, a fixing block fixedly connected to the top of the second electric telescopic rod, and the fixing block fixedly connected to one side of the support frame.

[0010] In one example, the inner wall of the second groove is provided with sliding grooves on both sides, and the inner walls of the two sliding grooves are slidably connected with sliders, and the sliders are fixedly connected to the two sides of the fixed block.

[0011] In one example, a smart switch panel is provided on one side of the support rod. The surface of the smart switch panel is provided with a servo motor switch, a first electric telescopic rod switch, and a second electric telescopic rod switch. The servo motor is electrically connected to an external power source through the servo motor switch, the first electric telescopic rod is connected to the first electric telescopic rod switch, and the second electric telescopic rod is connected to the second electric telescopic rod switch.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] 1. A protective cover is installed on the outer wall of the fog sensor to protect the internal fog sensor. During the use of the protective cover, moisture will still adhere to its surface, and condensation will also appear on the inner wall of the protective cover with temperature changes. Since the protective cover is connected to the fog sensor, the outer and inner walls of the protective cover are respectively equipped with arc-shaped plates. The two arc-shaped plates are connected by a rotating shaft. When it is necessary to remove moisture from the surface, one end of one arc-shaped plate is connected to the support frame, so that the two arc-shaped plates are in a fixed state, while the arc-shaped plates slide against the inner and outer walls of the protective cover. Then, driven by a servo motor, the bottom protective cover is driven to rotate back and forth. The servo motor is a programmable motor, which can drive the protective cover to rotate in different directions, thereby preventing the internal wiring harness from getting tangled. Furthermore, the single rotation of the fog sensor can detect fog from all directions, thereby improving the accuracy of fog detection.

[0014] 2. When scraping away the condensate inside the protective cover, the condensate needs to be drained. This can be achieved by driving the first electric telescopic rod inside the first groove, which moves the top plate and the rubber plug on one side of the top plate downwards. Since there is a through hole at the top of the rotating shaft, the removal of the rubber plug allows the scraped condensate to drain through the through hole, thus preventing the condensate from accumulating inside the protective cover.

[0015] 3. Driven by the second electric telescopic rod, the support frame is connected to the telescopic end of the second electric telescopic rod via a fixed block. This allows the support frame to be adjusted in height during use, facilitating maintenance of the fog sensor. When adjusting the fog sensor up and down, the sliders located on both sides of the fixed block are slidably connected to the sliding grooves on both sides of the inner wall of the second groove, ensuring greater stability during height adjustment.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Please see Figure 1-5This utility model provides a technical solution: an automatic monitoring device for foggy highways, including a support rod 1, a support frame 2 on one side of the support rod 1, a first connecting rod 3 rotatably connected to the bottom of the support frame 2, a fog sensor 4 fixedly connected to the bottom of the first connecting rod 3, a protective cleaning mechanism 5 at the bottom of the fog sensor 4, and a height adjustment mechanism 6 on one side of the support frame 2.

[0024] The feature is that the protective cleaning mechanism 5 includes a protective cleaning component and a drainage component. The protective cleaning component includes a protective cover 501 fixedly connected to the bottom of the fog sensor 4. Two arc-shaped plates 502 are slidably connected to one side of the protective cover 501. The two arc-shaped plates 502 are fixedly connected by a rotating shaft 503, and the rotating shaft 503 is embedded in the bottom of the protective cover 501. A second connecting rod 504 is fixedly connected to one side of one of the arc-shaped plates 502, and the second connecting rod 504 is fixedly connected to one side of the support frame 2. A servo motor 505 is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 2, and the other end of the first connecting rod 3 is fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor 505.

[0025] In use, a protective cover 501 is fitted over the outer wall of the fog sensor 4 to protect the internal fog sensor 4. During use, moisture may still adhere to the surface of the protective cover 501, and condensation may occur on the inner wall of the protective cover 501 with temperature changes. Since the protective cover 501 is connected to the fog sensor 4, both the outer and inner walls of the protective cover 501 are provided with arc-shaped plates 502. The two arc-shaped plates 502 are connected by a rotating shaft 503, allowing one of the arc-shaped plates 502 to be rotated when moisture removal is needed. One end is connected to the support frame 2, so that the two arc plates 502 are in a fixed state, while the arc plates 502 and the inner and outer walls of the protective cover 501 are sliding. Thus, the protective cover 501 at the bottom can be driven to reciprocate under the drive of the servo motor 505. The servo motor 505 is a programmable motor, which can drive the protective cover 501 to rotate in different directions, thereby preventing the internal wire harness from getting tangled. Furthermore, the single rotation of the fog sensor 4 can also detect fog from all directions, thereby improving the accuracy of fog detection.

[0026] Furthermore, the drainage assembly includes a first groove 506 formed on one side of the support frame 2, a first electric telescopic rod 507 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the first groove 506, and a top plate 508 fixedly connected to the output end of the first electric telescopic rod 507.

[0027] A through hole 510 is provided at the top of the rotating shaft 503. A rubber plug 509 is inserted and connected to the inner wall of the through hole 510, and the bottom of the rubber plug 509 is fixedly connected to the top of one side of the top plate 508.

[0028] When using the protective cover 501, the condensate inside needs to be scraped off. This can be achieved by driving the first electric telescopic rod 507 inside the first groove 506, which in turn drives the top plate 508 and the rubber plug 509 on one side of the top plate 508 to move downwards. Since the top of the rotating shaft 503 has a through hole 510, the rubber plug 509 can be pulled out, allowing the scraped condensate inside to be discharged through the through hole 510, thus preventing the condensate from accumulating inside the protective cover 501.

[0029] Furthermore, the height adjustment mechanism 6 includes a second groove 601 opened on one side of the support rod 1, a second electric telescopic rod 602 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the second groove 601, a fixing block 603 fixedly connected to the top of the second electric telescopic rod 602, and the fixing block 603 fixedly connected to one side of the support frame 2.

[0030] In use, driven by the second electric telescopic rod 602, the support frame 2 is connected to the telescopic end of the second electric telescopic rod 602 through the fixing block 603. This allows the support frame 2 to be adjusted in height under the drive of the second electric telescopic rod 602, making it convenient for staff to inspect the fog sensor 4.

[0031] Furthermore, sliding grooves 604 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the second groove 601, and sliders 605 are slidably connected to the inner walls of the two sliding grooves 604, and the sliders 605 are fixedly connected to both sides of the fixed block 603.

[0032] When using the fog sensor 4, the sliders 605 located on both sides of the fixed block 603 are slidably connected to the sliding grooves 604 on both sides of the inner wall of the second groove 601, so that it can be more stable during the height adjustment process.

Each embodiment focuses on its differences from other embodiments. In particular, the system embodiments are basically similar to the method embodiments, so they are described more simply; relevant parts can be referred to the descriptions of the method embodiments.

Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principle of this utility model should be included within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
