[0029] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby making a clearer and more definite definition of the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] Example:

[0031] This embodiment describes the structure of a passenger emergency alarm device for rail transit.

[0032] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, Figure 1 This is a three-dimensional structural diagram of a preferred embodiment of a passenger emergency alarm device for rail transit according to this utility model. Figure 2 This is an exploded view of a passenger emergency alarm device for rail transit. The passenger emergency alarm device for rail transit includes: a panel bracket 4 for supporting a display screen 12, a glass panel 2, and a control panel module 7;

[0033] The back of the glass panel 2 is partially filled with ink to form a non-transparent area, which is also a non-display area. The area without ink filling constitutes the display area. The display screen 12 is fixed to the back of the display area of ​​the glass panel 2.

[0034] An antenna 3 is attached to the inner side of the glass panel 2 for wireless signal transmission. In a preferred embodiment, the antenna 3 selects a Bluetooth Auracast module to receive broadcast information and simultaneously transmits audio streams to passengers' hearing aids or Bluetooth headsets, enabling passengers to access the broadcast signals on the rail transit vehicle. This Bluetooth module allows a single audio source device (such as a broadcast device on the rail transit vehicle) to wirelessly transmit audio streams to multiple receiving devices, such as headsets, hearing aids, or speakers, simultaneously. Receiving devices do not need to pair with the transmitter; they only need to scan and join the Auracast broadcast channel, improving accessibility and making it more convenient and timely for passengers with hearing aids to receive broadcast information.

[0035] The panel bracket 4 is mounted on the rear cover plate 8 via the intermediate bracket 11, thereby forming a complete and sealed protective structure.

[0036] A control board module 7 is mounted on the panel bracket 4, with the intermediate bracket supporting the control board assembly. The control board module integrates data processing circuitry, a camera assembly 6, a microphone 10, a light sensor 13, indicator lights, etc. The display screen 12 is fixed to the back of the display area of ​​the glass panel 2 and connected to the control board module 7 via an FPC flexible cable. The emergency alarm button has two wires leading out and a 2-pin connector assembled; a 2-pin socket is provided on the control board module, and the connector from the emergency alarm button is inserted into the 2-pin socket on the control board module. An electrical interface 9 is located on the control board module for external power and signal input.

[0037] The panel bracket 4 serves as the mounting carrier for the display screen 12, glass panel 2, and control board module 7. The intermediate bracket 11 is equipped with positioning posts and locking holes corresponding to the control board assembly 7 to realize the assembly of each functional component.

[0038] It also includes an emergency alarm button 1, which is used by passengers in the carriage to initiate an alarm request in an emergency. The emergency alarm button is connected to the control board module 7 via a 2-pin plug, and holes for the emergency alarm button 1 are reserved on the intermediate bracket 11, the panel bracket 4, and the glass panel 2.

[0039] The panel bracket 4 is also provided with an output hole that allows the camera component 6, indicator lights, etc. to be output to the glass panel 2, so as to display the position of each corresponding functional component on the glass panel.

[0040] In terms of usage, this passenger emergency alarm is highly integrated, smaller and lighter in overall size, and can be flexibly installed on the inner wall of the carriage or in the required location.

[0041] In the preferred embodiment, the rail transit passenger emergency alarm incorporates Bluetooth wireless technology, enabling hearing-impaired passengers (such as those wearing hearing aids) to directly receive broadcast signals from the rail transit vehicle, making signal reception more convenient. Furthermore, it eliminates the need for complex antenna coil layouts on the carriages to achieve broadcast signal coverage; the passenger emergency alarm can be directly installed in the required carriage location, offering greater flexibility and reducing installation difficulty and maintenance costs.

[0042] To enhance the convenience and aesthetics of the passenger emergency alarm system within the train carriage, this invention securely connects the display screen 12 to the glass panel 2 using a fully laminated connection. This tight fit effectively prevents dust ingress and ensures a clear display. The display screen can be an AMOLED screen, which is connected to the control board module via an FPC flexible cable. This display screen can be used to display images, videos, and other information.

[0043] like Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 This is a front view of a passenger emergency alarm device for rail transit.

[0044] In a preferred embodiment, the camera assembly 6 has a pre-installed plug that connects to the socket of the control board module 7.

[0045] In a preferred embodiment, microphone 10 is a patch assembly mounted on control board module 7. Due to the relatively noisy environment inside the carriage, to ensure clearer sound acquisition of passengers' voices, microphone 10 uses a digital microphone to collect passenger voices. Digital microphones offer better noise immunity compared to traditional microphones. Furthermore, to ensure the integrity of the acquired sound signal, the microphone includes a left-channel microphone 16 and a right-channel microphone 17.

[0046] In a preferred embodiment, the indicator lights are surface-mount LED beads, mounted on the control module 7. A light guide post is pre-installed on the glass panel 2, with the end of the light guide post resting against the LED bead, displaying the indicator light effect on the glass panel. The indicator lights include a status indicator light 14 and an intercom indicator light 15. The light sensor 13 is an ambient light sensor, used to adjust the panel brightness according to changes in ambient light.

[0047] In a preferred embodiment, an EMI shielding layer is provided on the inner side of the rear cover plate 8, and heat dissipation fins are provided on the outer side. The EMI shielding layer has the function of preventing external electromagnetic waves from interfering with the internal circuit of the alarm, or preventing internal signal leakage from interfering with other equipment.

[0048] This utility model discloses a passenger emergency alarm for rail transit, which is assembled using full-fit technology, integrating all functional components into the alarm. Compared with existing alarm products, the overall structure is smaller, improving space utilization and the aesthetics of the carriage. By adding a Bluetooth module as a wireless antenna, it solves the problem that in existing technologies, hearing-impaired passengers need to rely on visual cues or additional pairing devices to hear broadcast information on rail transit vehicles. This allows hearing-impaired passengers to hear broadcast signals without complicated operations, meeting the needs of barrier-free access. Moreover, the design of this Bluetooth antenna eliminates the need for a complex antenna coil network to achieve broadcast signal coverage within the rail transit vehicle carriage, reducing installation and maintenance costs and enhancing the flexible application of the alarm.
