Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of monitoring device technology, specifically to an ultraviolet alarm for a cigarette cabinet. Background Technology

[0002] Cigarette display cases, also known as cigarette showcases, play an important role as a common sales auxiliary device. They typically consist of a cabinet, shelves inside the cabinet, and transparent glass doors or windows mounted on the cabinet, designed to clearly display various cigarette brands and styles for easy customer selection.

[0003] However, existing cigarette display cases have significant drawbacks in practical use. Because they are often placed at shop entrances, they are frequently exposed to direct sunlight during the hot summer months. Sunlight contains ultraviolet (UV) rays, and prolonged exposure to these rays can negatively impact the cigarettes inside, especially the cigarette packs, causing discoloration. This discoloration not only damages the original color and design of the cigarette packs, making them less attractive, but also significantly affects the overall product display. For consumers, this alteration to the appearance of the cigarette packs reduces their desire to purchase, thus negatively impacting cigarette sales.

[0004] Therefore, in order to solve the problem of cigarette boxes discoloring and affecting sales when exposed to direct sunlight in summer, there are currently light-shielding devices for cigarette display cabinets. However, there is a lack of devices to detect ultraviolet rays, so sellers cannot determine when to use the light-shielding device or whether the device is damaged. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a UV alarm for cigarette cabinets. This device can alert users to use a light-shielding device when UV levels exceed the standard, thereby reducing the adverse effects of UV radiation on cigarettes. Furthermore, if UV levels still exceed the standard after using the light-shielding device, it can be determined that the light-shielding device has failed, prompting the user to replace it.

[0006] A cigarette cabinet ultraviolet alarm includes a housing, an ultraviolet intensity sensor disposed on the outer wall of the housing, a microcontroller, a battery and a buzzer disposed inside the housing, and an adsorption mechanism disposed on the housing, which can be adsorbed onto the glass of the cabinet. The battery powers the ultraviolet intensity sensor, the microcontroller and the buzzer. The ultraviolet intensity sensor can detect the ultraviolet intensity and send the information to the microcontroller. The microcontroller can control the start and stop of the buzzer.

[0007] Preferably, the adsorption mechanism includes a suction cup, a fixing cylinder, and a bolt. The fixing cylinder penetrates the top and bottom walls of the housing. The top end of the fixing cylinder is connected to the outer wall of the suction cup. The inner wall of the fixing cylinder has threads. The suction cup has a through hole communicating with the inner cavity of the fixing cylinder. The bolt is threaded to the inner wall of the fixing cylinder, and the top end of the bolt enters the through hole to seal the through hole.

[0008] Preferably, the bottom end of the bolt is connected to a bolt head.

[0009] Preferably, the bottom wall of the fixed cylinder and the outer bottom wall of the shell are on the same plane.

[0010] Preferably, it also includes a sealing ring, which is fitted onto the bolt, with the bolt head pressing against the sealing ring against the outer bottom wall of the housing.

[0011] Preferably, a battery mounting bracket is provided inside the housing, and the battery is fixed on the battery mounting bracket.

[0012] Preferably, the battery is a rechargeable battery.

[0013] Preferably, one end of the buzzer is located outside the housing.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: In this technical solution, an adsorption mechanism is set on the shell. When in use, the adsorption mechanism is adsorbed onto the glass of the cabinet to fix the shell. An ultraviolet intensity sensor is set to detect the ultraviolet intensity. When the ultraviolet intensity exceeds the set value, the microcontroller controls the buzzer to emit a warning sound to inform the user that the ultraviolet intensity exceeds the standard. At this time, the user can use a light shield to reduce the adverse effects of ultraviolet rays on cigarettes. If the ultraviolet intensity still exceeds the standard after using the light shield, it can be determined that the light shield has failed and the user can replace the light shield.

[0018] The embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These embodiments are merely illustrative of the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0019] It should be noted that, unless otherwise stated, the technical or scientific terms used in this application shall have the ordinary meaning as understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this utility model pertains.

[0020] Example 1

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a UV alarm for a cigarette cabinet, including a housing 1. A UV intensity sensor 2 is installed on the outer wall of the housing 1. A microcontroller 3, a battery 4, and a buzzer 5 are installed inside the housing 1. An adsorption mechanism is installed on the housing 1, which can be adsorbed onto the cabinet glass. The battery 4 powers the UV intensity sensor 2, the microcontroller 3, and the buzzer 5. The UV intensity sensor 2 can detect the UV intensity and send the information to the microcontroller 3. The microcontroller 3 can control the start and stop of the buzzer 5.

[0022] In this embodiment, an adsorption mechanism is provided on the housing 1. When in use, the adsorption mechanism is adsorbed onto the glass of the cabinet to fix the housing 1. An ultraviolet intensity sensor 2 is provided to detect the ultraviolet intensity. When the ultraviolet intensity exceeds the set value, the microcontroller 3 controls the buzzer 5 to emit a warning sound to inform the user that the ultraviolet intensity exceeds the standard. At this time, the user can use a light shield to reduce the adverse effects of ultraviolet rays on cigarettes. If the ultraviolet intensity still exceeds the standard after using the light shield, it can be determined that the light shield has failed and the user can replace the light shield.

[0023] The adsorption mechanism described in this embodiment includes a suction cup 6, a fixing cylinder 7, and a bolt 8. The fixing cylinder 7 penetrates the top and bottom walls of the housing 1. The top end of the fixing cylinder 7 is connected to the outer wall of the suction cup 6. The inner wall of the fixing cylinder 7 has threads. The suction cup 6 has a through hole that communicates with the inner cavity of the fixing cylinder 7. The bolt 8 is threaded to the inner wall of the fixing cylinder 7. The top end of the bolt 8 enters the through hole and seals the through hole.

[0024] In this embodiment, a suction cup 6 is provided, and a fixing cylinder 7 passes through the top and bottom walls of the housing 1. A through hole is opened on the suction cup 6, and a bolt 8 is threadedly connected to the fixing cylinder 7. The tip of the bolt 8 enters the through hole to seal it. When adsorbed onto the glass of the cabinet, the suction cup 6 is squeezed to expel the air inside, resulting in a lower internal pressure than atmospheric pressure. At this time, the suction cup 6 can adhere to the glass of the cabinet, thus fixing the housing 1. When the battery 4 is depleted and needs charging, the device needs to be removed. In this case, the bolt 8 is removed by rotating it, allowing the inside of the suction cup 6 to communicate with the outside air through the through hole and fixing cylinder 7, making the atmospheric pressure the same. At this time, the suction cup 6 cannot adhere to the glass, making it easy to remove. For reuse, simply tighten the bolt 8. Thus, this device can be easily fixed and removed from glass.

[0025] In this embodiment, the bottom end of bolt 8 is connected to a bolt head. The bolt head is provided to facilitate rotating bolt 8 when the device needs to be removed.

[0026] In this embodiment, the bottom wall of the fixed cylinder 7 and the outer bottom wall of the shell 1 are on the same plane.

[0027] This embodiment also includes a sealing ring 9, which is sleeved on the bolt 8, with the bolt head pressing against the sealing ring 9 against the outer bottom wall of the housing 1. The sealing ring 9 is provided in this embodiment to further improve sealing performance and prevent air leakage that could cause the suction cup 6 to become unstable and fall off.

[0028] In this embodiment, a battery mounting bracket is provided inside the housing 1, and the battery 4 is fixed on the battery mounting bracket. The battery mounting bracket is provided in this embodiment to secure the battery 4.

[0029] In this embodiment, battery 4 is a rechargeable battery. The use of a rechargeable battery in this embodiment facilitates continuous use through charging.

[0030] In this embodiment, one end of the buzzer 5 is located outside the housing 1. The fact that the sound-emitting end of the buzzer 5 is located outside the housing 1 makes the prompting sound clearer.

[0031] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model, and they should all be covered within the scope of the claims and specification of this utility model.
