Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of railway construction safety prevention, and in particular relates to a 5G signal railway construction train arrival monitoring and early warning system. Background Technology

[0002] During the construction of one track of a double-track railway, the other track maintains normal operation. During construction, when a train arrives, construction personnel and equipment may not be able to evacuate the train's operating area in time. Furthermore, manual notification is prone to oversights due to various factors such as construction interference, fatigue, and noise pollution at the construction site. This can create significant safety hazards, easily leading to accidents or dangerous situations.

[0003] Currently, in railway construction vehicle arrival monitoring and early warning systems, construction safety personnel typically alert workers using whistles and loudspeakers after receiving information about an approaching vehicle. However, in areas with significant distance or noise, signals from personnel in the cabs of some machinery may not be heard. This can lead to situations where construction workers and equipment fail to evacuate the site in a timely manner, resulting in safety accidents. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the present invention aims to propose a 5G signal railway construction train arrival monitoring and early warning system to solve the problem that existing railway construction early warning methods are prone to safety accidents.

[0009] Furthermore, the microcontroller is electrically connected to the 5G communication module and the camera respectively, and the microcontroller is connected to the vibration sensor via wires. The battery provides power to the camera, the 5G communication module, the microcontroller and the vibration sensor respectively.

[0010] Furthermore, an alloy cone is installed at the bottom of the support rod.

[0011] Furthermore, the alarm device includes an alarm and a wristband, with the alarm installed on the wristband.

The vibrator and speaker are embedded in the wristband, the 5G communication module and the button battery are installed inside the alarm, and the alarm switch is installed on the side of the alarm. The button battery powers the 5G communication module, the vibrator, and the speaker respectively, and the button battery has a charging function.

[0013] Furthermore, the wristband is equipped with indicator lights, which have three display colors: red, green, and blue.
