[0021] Please see Figure 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution: a solar energy electronic scale with a pop-out hook structure, including a solar energy electronic scale body 1, a first placement groove 2 is provided on the side of the top of the solar energy electronic scale body 1, a support component 3 is engaged inside the first placement groove 2, the support component 3 and the solar energy electronic scale body 1 are connected by a fixing mechanism, a pop-out mechanism is provided at the bottom of the support component 3, a second placement groove 6 is provided at the end of the first placement groove 2, a screw 7 is engaged inside the second placement groove 6, the end of the screw 7 is fixedly connected to the end of the support component 3, a first threaded hole 8 is provided in the middle of the top of the solar energy electronic scale body 1, and the first threaded hole 8 is threadedly connected to the screw 7, so that the support component 3 can be fixed to the top of the solar energy electronic scale body 1 through the first threaded hole 8 and the screw 7.

[0022] The fixing mechanism connection includes a second threaded hole 9. The second threaded hole 9 is provided on the inner side of the first placement groove 2, and a limit hole 10 is provided on one side of the support member 3.

[0023] The other end of the locking rod 11 is located on the outside of the solar energy electronic scale body 1 and is designed as a "T" shape. There are two locking rods 11 symmetrically distributed about the central axis of the support component 3, which facilitates the rotation of the locking rod 11, thereby facilitating the disassembly and installation of the locking rod 11.

This allows the height of the "Y"-shaped hook at one end of the second support rod 5 to be adjusted, which can accommodate bags of different heights and improve the versatility of the solar-powered electronic scale.

[0026] Solar-powered electronic scales mainly consist of a solar power supply module, a weighing and display module, and other auxiliary modules, which constitute the existing technology. The following is a detailed description:

[0027] Photovoltaic power supply module:

[0028] Solar panels are one of the core components of solar-powered electronic scales. They are typically made of monocrystalline silicon, polycrystalline silicon, or flexible solar energy materials, and their function is to convert sunlight into electrical energy. Solar panels are generally placed on the surface of the electronic scale, such as around the weighing pan, to better receive sunlight.

[0029] Energy storage device: Generally a rechargeable battery, such as a lithium polymer battery or a nickel-metal hydride battery. Its function is to store the electrical energy generated by the solar panel and provide power to the various components of the electronic scale when there is no sunlight or insufficient sunlight, ensuring that the electronic scale can work normally.

[0030] Charge / discharge management circuit: Used to control the storage and release of electrical energy. It can prevent overcharging or over-discharging of the battery, protect the battery's lifespan and performance, and ensure the stable operation of the entire system, guaranteeing a stable power supply for the electronic scale under different lighting conditions.

[0031] Weighing and display module:

[0032] Weighing sensor: Built-in high-precision strain gauge or pressure sensor. When an object is placed on the weighing pan, the sensor detects the weight of the object and converts it into an electrical signal. The magnitude of this electrical signal is proportional to the weight of the object.

[0033] Display screen: Most products use low-power LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) or OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode Display) screens to display the weight of objects. Some products also have backlight adjustment functions for easy viewing of weighing results in different lighting conditions, and support unit switching, such as kilograms (kg) and pounds (lb), to meet the needs of different users.

[0034] Other auxiliary modules:

[0035] The control unit is the "brain" of the solar-powered electronic scale, responsible for controlling the operation of each module. For example, it controls the light detection unit to detect light intensity, receiving the first detection signal from the light detection unit regarding light intensity, and the second detection signal from the weight detection unit regarding the weight of the object. Furthermore, the control unit processes and calculates these signals accordingly, generating control signals to control the operation of other modules, such as controlling the light display unit to display the light intensity.

[0036] Light intensity detection unit: Used to detect the light intensity of the light energy conversion unit (i.e., solar panel). It utilizes the characteristic that the solar panel outputs different currents under different light intensities, and indirectly detects the light intensity by detecting the magnitude of the solar panel's output current, and transmits the light intensity value to the control unit in the form of a first detection signal.

[0037] Analog-to-digital converter circuit: Its input is connected to the weight detection unit, and its output is connected to the digital signal input port of the control unit. Its function is to convert the analog electrical signal output by the weight detection unit into a digital signal so that the control unit can process and analyze it, since the control unit typically can only process digital signals.

[0038] Timing circuit unit: Generates a second trigger signal according to a preset time interval to control the working rhythm of other modules, such as turning on the power of the weight detection unit at a time to realize the timed detection of the object's weight.

[0039] Power control unit: Receives the second trigger signal generated by the timing circuit unit, turns on the power supply of the weight detection unit after receiving the signal, and enables the weight detection unit to start working and detect the weight of the object.

[0040] Weight Comparison Unit: Within a preset time after the weight detection unit is powered on, this unit receives the second detection signal from the weight detection unit and determines whether the weight has changed. If the weight has changed, a third control signal is generated; otherwise, a fourth control signal is generated, which can be used to control the scale to enter sleep mode or other states to save energy.

[0041] Working principle: When using this solar-powered electronic scale with a pop-up hook structure, first rotate the locking rod 11. Because the locking rod 11 is threadedly connected to the second threaded hole 9, the end of the locking rod 11 separates from the limiting hole 10. At this time, the support component 3 is released from restraint. Figure 5 The spring 13 is in a compressed state, so the elastic force generated by the spring 13 drives the top rod 14 and the support component 3 to move upward, thereby causing the support component 3 to pop out from the inside of the first placement slot 2. Then, the support component 3 is picked up so that the screw 7 on the support component 3 is aligned with the first threaded hole 8. Then, the support component 3 is rotated so that the screw 7 and the first threaded hole 8 are threaded together, thus completing the fixation of the support component 3. When the height of the "Y"-shaped hook at the upper end of the support component 3 is too low to hang a high bag, hold the first support rod 4 with one hand and rotate the second support rod 5 with the other hand so that the screw 15 and the third threaded hole 16 rotate relative to each other, thereby adjusting the height of the "Y"-shaped hook at the upper end of the support component 3.

[0042] When the support component 3 is no longer in use and needs to be stored inside the first placement slot 2, rotate the support component 3 to separate the screw 7 from the first threaded hole 8. Then, hold the first support rod 4 with one hand and rotate the second support rod 5 with the other hand to retract the lead screw 15 into the third threaded hole 16. Then, engage the support component 3 inside the first placement slot 2. The support component 3 presses the top rod 14 into the groove 12, compressing the spring 13. Finally, rotate the locking rod 11 so that the end of the locking rod 11 engages with the limiting hole 10, thus completing the fixation of the support component 3 inside the first placement slot 2.

[0043] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
