Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of escalator monitoring technology, specifically an escalator operation status monitoring device based on the Internet of Things. Background Technology
[0002] Escalators, as common transportation equipment in public places, are widely used in densely populated areas such as shopping malls, subway stations, and train stations. Their safe and stable operation is directly related to the personal safety of passengers.
[0003] Currently, traditional escalator operation status monitoring relies heavily on manual inspections, which suffers from poor real-time performance and incomplete monitoring. Manual inspections are often limited to fixed time periods, failing to promptly detect sudden anomalies during escalator operation, such as abnormal speed, excessive vibration, or overheating, potentially leading to safety accidents. Furthermore, some existing monitoring devices suffer from untimely data transmission, hindering remote real-time monitoring and data analysis. When escalator malfunctions, management personnel cannot obtain information and take immediate action, resulting in delays in troubleshooting, impacting normal escalator use, increasing maintenance costs, and creating safety hazards, thus limiting their practical application.

[0022] Example:
[0023] Please see Figure 1-3This utility model provides a technical solution: an escalator operation status monitoring device based on the Internet of Things, including an installation mechanism 1, a monitoring mechanism 2 fixedly connected to one side surface of the installation mechanism 1, and the monitoring mechanism 2 including a data acquisition component 21 and a data processing component 22, the data processing component 22 being electrically connected to one side of the data acquisition component 21, and an Internet of Things transmission mechanism 3 fixedly connected to the other side surface of the installation mechanism 1, and the Internet of Things transmission mechanism 3 being electrically connected to the monitoring mechanism 2.
[0024] Among them, such as Figure 2 As shown, the data acquisition component 21 includes a speed sensor 211, a vibration sensor 212, a temperature sensor 213, and an infrared sensor 214. All four sensors are fixedly connected to one side of the mounting plate 11 and electrically connected to the data processing component 22. The data processing component 22 includes a processor 221 and a memory 222. The processor 221 is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting plate 11, and the memory 222 is fixedly connected to one side of the processor 221 and electrically connected to it. Specifically, when monitoring the escalator's operating status, each sensor collects corresponding data and transmits the data to the processor 221. The processor 221 analyzes and processes the data and stores it in the memory 222.
[0025] Among them, such as Figure 3 As shown, the IoT transmission mechanism 3 includes a wireless transmission module 31 and an antenna 32. The wireless transmission module 31 is fixedly connected to the other side of the mounting plate 11, and the antenna 32 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the wireless transmission module 31. The antenna 32 is electrically connected to the wireless transmission module 31, and the wireless transmission module 31 is electrically connected to the processor 221. Specifically, the monitoring data processed by the processor 221 is transmitted to the remote monitoring platform through the wireless transmission module 31 and the antenna 32 to realize remote data sharing.
[0026] Among them, such as Figure 1 As shown, the installation mechanism 1 includes a mounting plate 11 and fasteners 12, with the fasteners 12 symmetrically arranged at the four corners of the mounting plate 11. A groove 13 is provided in the middle of one side surface of the mounting plate 11, and a shock-absorbing pad 14 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the groove 13. An alarm component 4 is also fixedly connected to one side surface of the mounting plate 11. The alarm component 4 includes an audible and visual alarm 41, which is electrically connected to the processor 221. A protective shell 15 is fixedly connected to the edge of one side surface of the mounting plate 11. The protective shell 15 is made of waterproof and dustproof material and covers the monitoring mechanism 2. Specifically, the mounting plate 11 is installed on the escalator by the fasteners 12, the shock-absorbing pad 14 reduces the impact of vibration, and the protective shell 15 protects the monitoring mechanism 2. When the processor 221 determines that the escalator is abnormal, it controls the audible and visual alarm 41 to sound an alarm.
[0027] Working Principle: When the IoT-based escalator operation status monitoring device is in use, it is installed in a suitable position on the escalator via the fixing part 12 of the installation mechanism 1. The speed sensor 211, vibration sensor 212, temperature sensor 213, and infrared sensor 214 in the data acquisition component 21 collect data in real time on the escalator's operating speed, vibration, temperature of key components, and whether there are foreign objects or abnormal personnel lingering there. This data is then transmitted to the processor 221 of the data processing component 22. The processor 221 analyzes and processes the received data, comparing it with preset normal range values. If the data exceeds the normal range, it determines that the escalator's operating status is abnormal. On one hand, it controls the audible and visual alarm 41 of the alarm component 4 to issue an audible and visual alarm to alert on-site personnel; on the other hand, it transmits the abnormal data and related information to the remote monitoring platform via the wireless transmission module 31 and antenna 32 of the IoT transmission mechanism 3. Management personnel can then remotely obtain information and take appropriate measures. Simultaneously, the memory 222 stores all collected and processed data for subsequent analysis and maintenance of the escalator's operating status. The protective shell 15 provides waterproof and dustproof protection for the monitoring unit 2, ensuring the long-term stable operation of the device.
