Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of the second feature includes the first feature directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" the second feature includes the first feature directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0034] In the description of this embodiment, the terms "upper," "lower," "left," and "right," etc., refer to the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are used only for ease of description and simplification of operation, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for distinction in description and have no special meaning.

[0035] This embodiment provides a wind speed and direction detection device, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it can directly detect wind speed and direction, has a simple structure, is easy to operate, and can accurately detect wind speed.

[0036] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the wind speed and direction detection device includes a base 1, a wind speed detection unit 2, a wind direction detection unit 3, a display component, and a power supply component 4. The base 1 is configured to be detachably mounted on a building. The wind speed detection unit 2 includes a rotating component 21 and a speed sensor. The rotating component 21 is rotatably mounted on the base 1 about a vertical direction. The speed sensor is mounted on the rotating component 21 and is used to detect the rotational speed of the rotating component 21. The wind direction detection unit 3 includes a wind direction indicator component 312 and an angle sensor. The wind direction indicator component 312 is rotatably mounted on the rotating component 21 about a vertical direction. The angle sensor is mounted on the wind direction indicator component 312 and is used to detect the rotation angle of the wind direction indicator component 312 relative to a fixed reference point. The display component is communicatively connected to both the speed sensor and the angle sensor. The power supply component 4 is electrically connected to the display component and is used to supply power to the display component.

[0037] When using a wind speed and direction detection device to detect wind speed and direction, the base 1 is installed on a building. When there is wind inside the building, the wind will blow the rotating component 21, causing it to rotate vertically. The speed sensor can detect the rotational speed of the rotating component 21, which is the wind speed. At the same time, the wind will also blow the wind direction indicator component 31, causing it to rotate and point in the direction of the wind. The angle sensor can detect the rotation angle of the wind direction indicator component 312 relative to a fixed reference point, thus determining the specific direction indicated by the wind direction indicator component 31. The wind speed and the specific direction indicated by the wind direction indicator component 31 are then displayed on the display component for easy inspection by staff. By setting up the wind speed detection unit 2 and the wind direction detection unit 3, wind speed and direction can be directly detected. The structure is simple, easy to operate, and can accurately detect wind speed.

[0038] Optionally, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the rotating assembly 21 includes a first rod body 211, a connecting sleeve 212, multiple connecting rods 213, and multiple rotating air cups 214. The first rod body 211 is disposed on the base 1 and extends vertically. The connecting sleeve 212 is rotatably fitted onto the first rod body 211, and a speed sensor is disposed on the connecting sleeve 212. One end of each connecting rod 213 is connected to the connecting sleeve 212, and the other end is connected to the rotating air cup 214. The multiple connecting rods 213 correspond one-to-one with the multiple rotating air cups 214. When wind blows towards the wind speed and direction detection device, it causes the rotating wind cup 214 to rotate vertically. The wind speed is the rotational speed of the wind cup 214. The rotating wind cup 214 then drives the connecting sleeve 212 to rotate via the connecting rod 213. The rotational speed of the connecting sleeve 212 is the same as that of the rotating wind cup 214. Therefore, the wind speed can be determined simply by detecting the rotational speed of the connecting sleeve 212. The structure is simple, easy to operate, and provides a clear visual representation of the wind speed. Furthermore, the first rod 211 provides a mounting base for the connecting sleeve 212, connecting rod 213, and rotating wind cup 214, offering stable support and ensuring that these components only rotate under wind force, preventing any deviation or vibration in other directions.

[0039] For example, three rotating wind cups 214 are provided, and three connecting rods 213 are provided accordingly. In other embodiments, other numbers of rotating wind cups 214 and connecting rods 213 may be provided as needed.

[0040] Optionally, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the wind direction indicator assembly 31 includes a second rod 311 and a wind direction indicator 312. The second rod 311 is disposed at the upper end of the first rod 211 and extends vertically. The wind direction indicator 312 is rotatably disposed on the second rod 311 about vertically. By setting the second rod 311, a mounting base is provided for the wind direction indicator 312. When the wind blows towards the wind direction indicator 312, the wind will cause the wind direction indicator 312 to rotate and point in the direction of the wind, thereby enabling workers to clearly understand the specific wind direction.

[0041] For example, the wind direction indicator 312 includes a wind vane. The wind vane is provided with an indicator arrow, the direction of which the indicator arrow points is the direction of the wind.

[0042] It should be noted that both ends of the weather vane are made of explosion-proof glass.

[0043] Optionally, the wind direction indicator assembly 31 also includes an illumination element. The illumination element is disposed on the wind direction indicator 312 and is electrically connected to the power supply assembly 4. By providing illumination and power to it, staff can quickly determine the direction of the wind direction indicator 312 at night or in low-light conditions, facilitating observation by staff.

[0044] For example, the lighting element includes an LED light strip that is arranged along the outline of the wind direction indicator 312.

[0045] Optionally, the wind speed and direction detection device also includes a connector. The connector passes through the base 1 and is threaded onto the building. When installing the wind speed and direction detection device, it is only necessary to pass the connector through the base 1 and thread it onto the building. The structure is simple, easy to operate, and convenient to disassemble and install.

[0046] For example, the connector includes a bolt.

[0047] Optionally, the wind speed and direction detection device also includes a gasket. The connector passes through the gasket, and the gasket is sandwiched between the connector and the base 1. By setting the gasket, the contact area between the connector and the base 1 can be increased, local pressure can be reduced, and stress concentration can be avoided to prevent damage to the base 1.

[0048] Optionally, the wind speed and direction detection device also includes a fastening element. The fastening element is rotatably mounted on the building in a horizontal direction. The fastening element has a fastened state when engaged with the upper surface of the base 1 and a released state when disengaged from the base 1. When installing the wind speed and direction detection device, simply rotate the fastening element to engage with the surface of the base 1; at this time, the fastening element is in the fastened state. When the detection device is not in use, simply rotate the fastening element away from the base 1 to disengage the fastening element from the base 1. The structure is simple and the operation is convenient.

[0049] The fastening device includes a first fastening rod, a second fastening rod, a third fastening rod, and a fixing member connected in sequence. The first, second, and third fastening rods are perpendicular to each other. The fixing member is installed on the building and forms a rotation space with the outer wall of the building. The first fastening rod is rotatably installed within the rotation space. When installing the wind speed and direction detection device, the base 1 is placed on the building. Then, the first fastening rod is rotated so that the second fastening rod abuts against the side wall of the base 1, and the third fastening rod abuts against the upper surface of the base 1, thereby achieving fastening of the base 1. At this time, the fastening device is in the fastened state.

[0050] For example, the fastener includes a clamp made of steel sheet, the two ends of which are fixed to the building by welding. In other embodiments, clamps made of iron sheet or the like may also be selected as the fastener as needed, and this is not limited here.

[0051] Optionally, the power supply component 4 includes a solar panel 41 and a power supply line 42. The solar panel 41 is electrically connected to the display component via the power supply line 42. By setting up the solar panel 41, the display component can be continuously powered, which is energy-saving and environmentally friendly.

[0052] It should be noted that the solar panel 41 is an explosion-proof solar panel 41.

[0053] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can make various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions without departing from the protection scope of this utility model. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively describe all embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
