Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of traffic warning devices, specifically a solar-powered flashing warning control box. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of highway transportation, driving safety on high-risk road sections and in adverse weather conditions has always been a major focus of attention for traffic management departments and road users. High-risk road sections typically include sharp bends, steep slopes, and accident-prone areas. Due to their complex road geometry, these areas increase the difficulty of vehicle control and are prone to traffic accidents. Adverse weather conditions, such as heavy rain, dense fog, and snow, significantly reduce the road surface friction coefficient and decrease the driver's field of vision, further exacerbating driving risks.

[0003] Current highway traffic guidance methods primarily rely on traditional road signs and lighting equipment. Traditional road signs are typically made of reflective materials, providing some visibility during the day, but their visibility decreases significantly at night or in inclement weather, making it difficult to effectively guide drivers safely. While lighting equipment can improve road visibility to some extent, it suffers from high energy consumption and maintenance costs. Furthermore, most of these devices operate independently, lacking effective information synchronization and coordination mechanisms, and cannot dynamically adjust according to real-time road conditions and weather changes. For example, during heavy rain, the level of flooding may vary in different sections of the road, but existing lighting equipment cannot provide targeted warnings, making it difficult for drivers to accurately assess road conditions and increasing driving safety hazards.

[0004] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN219180050U discloses a solar-powered highway warning device and its synchronous warning system. The device includes a controller and a battery powering the controller within its housing. A strobe light electrically connected to the controller and a solar panel for charging the battery are mounted on the housing. At least one side of the housing, either the front or back, has a strobe light mounting area, comprising a left mounting area, a right mounting area, and a central mounting area between the left and right mounting areas. At least one red / blue / white strobe light is mounted in each of the left and right mounting areas, while a yellow strobe light is mounted in the central mounting area. This design cannot intelligently adjust the flashing frequency, brightness, and other operating states of the strobe light according to environmental changes, resulting in poor environmental adaptability and affecting the warning effect. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model aims to provide a solar-powered strobe warning control box, which effectively solves the problem that the flashing frequency, brightness and other working states of the strobe light cannot be intelligently adjusted according to environmental changes, resulting in poor environmental adaptability of the warning device and affecting the warning effect. It can issue warning signals in a suitable working state, effectively enhancing the warning effect, reducing the risk of traffic accidents and ensuring the driving safety of highways.

[0010] 1. By setting up a sensor integration module to collect vehicle driving environment parameters, the solar-powered strobe warning sub-control box can perceive highway environmental information in real time. Compared with the existing technology that only relies on fixed strobe lights, this utility model allows the solar-powered strobe warning sub-control box to react according to the actual environmental conditions. The controller compares the vehicle driving environment parameters with the preset environmental parameter thresholds through a preset environmental parameter threshold comparison program, which can accurately determine whether the current environment needs to strengthen the warning or adjust the warning mode, avoiding untimely or inaccurate warnings due to lack of real-time data, and improving the adaptability of the warning device to the complex and ever-changing highway environment.

[0011] 2. The power supply module adopts both mains power and solar power interfaces, and forms a switchable parallel power supply circuit through a power switching device. When the solar power supply is unstable or insufficient, it can switch to mains power in time to ensure the normal operation of the controller, sensor integration module and solar flash warning module. Compared with the existing technology that relies solely on solar panels to charge the battery, this utility model improves the reliability and stability of the power supply, avoids the failure of the warning device due to power supply problems, and ensures the continuous effectiveness of the highway warning function.

[0012] 3. By controlling the working state of the solar-powered strobe warning module according to the control signal through the controller, the precise control of the solar-powered strobe warning module is achieved. Compared with the fixed working mode of the strobe light in the prior art, the technical solution of this utility model can accurately control the opening, closing, and flashing frequency of the solar-powered strobe warning module according to the actual environmental needs. It can not only meet the warning needs in different environments, but also avoid unnecessary energy waste, improve energy utilization efficiency, and ensure that it can provide effective warnings at critical moments, thus ensuring the safety of highway driving.

[0014] The microphone receives external sound signals, converts them into electrical signals, and transmits them to the audio input pin of the voice processing chip. After processing the signal, the voice processing chip transmits the electrical signal to the speaker through the audio output pin to achieve sound playback. The communication pin of the voice processing chip is connected to the corresponding communication pin of the controller through the communication interface to achieve data interaction.

[0015] Furthermore, it also includes a display module electrically connected to the controller. The display module includes an LCD screen, a key input component, and a signal interaction interface. The data interface and control interface of the LCD screen are respectively connected to the first set of pins of the signal interaction interface.

The key input component is used to output key operation signals. The signal interaction interface is electrically connected to the controller and is used to transmit data between the LCD screen, the key input component, and the controller.

[0016] The controller transmits the display data and control signals for controlling the display status to the data and control interfaces of the LCD screen via the first set of pins of the signal interaction interface. After receiving these signals, the LCD screen displays the corresponding images, text, and other information according to the instructions, allowing users to intuitively obtain the device's operating status or related data. When the user operates the button input component, the button input component generates button operation signals, which are output via the second set of pins of the signal interaction interface. The signal interaction interface acts as a data transmission hub, efficiently transmitting data between the controller, the LCD screen, and the button input component, realizing two-way interaction between the user and the device.

[0017] Furthermore, the solar-powered strobe warning module includes a warning light body, a solar power supply component, and a drive control module. The solar power supply component is electrically connected to the drive control module and supplies power to it. The drive control module is electrically connected to the warning light body and controls its flashing operation. The drive control module is also electrically connected to a controller and receives control signals from the controller. Furthermore, the drive control module controls the operation of the warning light body according to these control signals.

[0018] The solar power supply module absorbs solar energy and converts it into electrical energy to power the drive control module, ensuring its normal operation. The drive control module is electrically connected to the warning light body, enabling precise control of its flashing state. Simultaneously, it is also electrically connected to the controller, receiving control signals from it. When the controller issues a specific command, the drive control module adjusts the warning light body's operating state in real time based on that signal. This gives the solar-powered flashing warning module high flexibility and intelligence. On one hand, using solar power is energy-saving and environmentally friendly, reducing reliance on traditional electricity. On the other hand, remote control via the controller allows for flexible adjustment of the warning light's operating mode according to actual needs. For example, the flashing frequency can be increased during peak traffic hours to enhance the warning effect, while the frequency can be reduced during off-peak hours to save energy, effectively improving both the warning effect and energy efficiency.

[0019] Furthermore, the drive control module includes a mode storage module, a signal parsing module, an execution module, and an interface module. The mode storage module is electrically connected to the signal parsing module and is used to store multiple preset warning mode parameters. The signal parsing module is electrically connected to both the interface module and the execution module and is used to receive control signals output by the controller and generate mode selection instructions. The execution module is electrically connected to the warning light body and is used to generate drive signals according to the mode selection instructions. The execution module is also used to output drive signals to the warning light body. The interface module is electrically connected to the controller and is used to provide an input channel for mode configuration signals.

[0020] The mode storage module pre-stores multiple sets of preset warning mode parameters, providing a basis for subsequent mode selection. The interface module is electrically connected to the controller, providing an input channel for mode configuration signals, allowing users to adjust the warning mode according to actual needs. The signal parsing module receives the control signals input by the controller through the interface module and parses out the mode selection instructions. The execution module is electrically connected to the warning light body. When the signal parsing module parses out the mode selection instructions, the execution module retrieves the corresponding warning mode parameters from the mode storage module according to the mode selection instructions, generates the corresponding drive signal, and outputs the drive signal to the warning light body, thereby controlling the warning light body to flash according to the selected warning mode, such as road construction, traffic accidents, severe weather, etc. The flexible selection of appropriate warning modes allows the warning light body to emit flashing signals that meet actual needs, greatly improving the pertinence and effectiveness of the warning and enhancing the warning effect.

[0022] The first wireless communication unit is electrically connected to the first communication interface of the controller via its signal input terminal. The controller transmits data or instructions that need to be uploaded to the external monitoring platform to the first wireless communication unit through the first communication interface. The signal output terminal of the first wireless communication unit then establishes a stable communication connection with the external monitoring platform through a preset communication medium, realizing remote data transmission and interaction, and facilitating real-time monitoring of equipment operating status by management personnel. The second wireless communication unit is electrically connected to the second communication interface of the controller via its signal input terminal. The controller sends control signals to the second wireless communication unit through the second communication interface.

[0024] The environmental parameter detection unit monitors environmental parameters such as temperature, humidity, and light in real time and transmits the collected data directly to the data output terminal of the sensor integration module. The vehicle monitoring unit is responsible for monitoring vehicle information. The output signal of the vehicle monitoring unit is first amplified and filtered by the signal conditioning circuit to improve signal quality before being transmitted to the data output terminal of the sensor integration module.

[0030] Figure 2 This is an electrical schematic diagram of a solar-powered flashing warning control box according to the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0031] The following detailed description illustrates the specific implementation method:

[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a solar-powered strobe warning control box includes a controller, a sensor integration module, a solar-powered strobe warning module, and a power supply module. The controller is electrically connected to the sensor integration module, the solar-powered strobe warning module, and the power supply module. The power supply module is electrically connected to the controller, the sensor integration module, and the solar-powered strobe warning module. The power supply module includes an AC power supply interface and a solar power supply interface. The AC power supply interface and the solar power supply interface form a switchable parallel power supply circuit with the power input terminal of the controller through a power switching device.

[0033] The controller is used to control the sensor integration module to collect vehicle driving environment parameters in a highway environment. The controller is also used to compare the vehicle driving environment parameters with preset environmental parameter thresholds through a preset environmental parameter threshold comparison program. The controller is also used to generate control signals based on the comparison results. The controller is also used to control the working status of the solar flash warning module based on the control signals.

[0034] In this embodiment, the controller is a PLC, which stands for Programmable Logic Controller, preferably a Siemens S7-1500 PLC.

[0035] After receiving highway vehicle driving environment parameters collected by the sensor integration module, the controller initiates a preset environmental parameter threshold comparison program. This program has built-in threshold ranges set for different environmental parameters (such as visibility, wind speed, and road surface temperature). The controller compares each collected environmental parameter with its corresponding preset threshold. For example, for the visibility parameter, if the collected visibility value is lower than the preset lower visibility threshold, it is determined to be poor visibility; if it is higher than the upper threshold, it is determined to be normal visibility. After all parameters have been compared, the controller analyzes the comparison results. If at least one parameter exceeds the normal threshold range, the controller generates a corresponding control signal, which carries specific abnormal information, such as what parameter is abnormal. If all parameters are within the normal threshold range, a normal state control signal is generated.

[0036] The solar-powered strobe warning control box is powered by AC220V mains or DC12V battery. Battery power allows for 24-hour continuous operation. The rated power is no more than 10W. It is a column-mounted unit. The operating environment is: temperature -20℃~+40℃, humidity 5%~95%RH. The dimensions are 800mm×500mm×378mm. The protection rating is IP55. The visual induction distance is no less than 200m. It is equipped with an RTC clock, which can still accurately record the time when the controller is powered off. It can withstand wind loads at a speed of 40m / s without significant structural deformation, and all functions operate normally.

[0037] In this embodiment, the power supply of the solar-powered strobe warning sub-control box supports optional mains power + battery, solar panel + battery, mains power, or solar + battery backup. The solar panel is 200W / 12V, and the battery is 38AH / 12V*2. The charging and discharging management method is an integrated mains-supplementary solar MPPT power supply.

[0038] The specific process of achieving switchable parallel power supply in the power supply module is as follows: the mains power supply interface is connected to a common 220V AC mains line, and the solar power supply interface is connected to a monocrystalline silicon solar panel (power selected according to actual needs, such as 100W) to convert solar energy into electrical energy. An automatic transfer switch is typically used as the power switching device. The mains power supply interface and the solar power supply interface are connected to the corresponding input terminals of the automatic transfer switch. The automatic transfer switch monitors the status of the mains and solar power supplies in real time. When the solar power supply is normal and meets the load requirements, the automatic transfer switch automatically connects the solar power supply interface to the controller's power input terminal, allowing the controller to be powered by solar energy. When the solar power supply is insufficient (e.g., insufficient light intensity leading to decreased power generation) or a fault occurs, the automatic transfer switch quickly detects this situation and automatically switches to the mains power supply interface, connecting the mains power to the controller's power input terminal, ensuring that the controller can continuously and stably obtain power, thus forming a switchable parallel power supply loop to ensure that the entire system can operate normally under different power supply conditions.

[0039] Specifically, it also includes a voice module, which is electrically connected to the controller. The voice module includes a voice processing chip, a microphone, a speaker, and a communication interface.

[0040] Specifically, it also includes a display module, which is electrically connected to the controller. The display module includes an LCD screen, a key input component, and a signal interaction interface. The data interface and control interface of the LCD screen are respectively connected to the first set of pins of the signal interaction interface. The LCD screen is used to receive display data and control signals. The signal output terminal of the key input component is connected to the second set of pins of the signal interaction interface.

The signal interaction interface is electrically connected to the controller and is used to transmit data between the LCD screen, the key input component, and the controller.

[0041] Specifically, the solar-powered strobe warning module includes a warning light body, a solar power supply component, and a drive control module. The solar power supply component is electrically connected to the drive control module and is used to supply power to the drive control module. The drive control module is electrically connected to the warning light body and is used to control the flashing operation of the warning light body. The drive control module is also electrically connected to a controller and is used to receive control signals from the controller. The drive control module is also used to control the operation of the warning light body according to the control signals.

[0042] Specifically, the drive control module includes a mode storage module, a signal analysis module, an execution module, and an interface module. The mode storage module is electrically connected to the signal analysis module and is used to store multiple preset warning mode parameters. The signal analysis module is electrically connected to both the interface module and the execution module and is used to receive control signals output by the controller and generate mode selection instructions. The execution module is electrically connected to the warning light body and is used to generate drive signals according to the mode selection instructions. The execution module is also used to output drive signals to the warning light body. The interface module is electrically connected to the controller and is used to provide an input channel for mode configuration signals.

[0043] In this embodiment, the mode storage module can use an EEPROM or Flash chip, connected to the controller via an I2C / SPI interface, to pre-program multiple sets of warning mode parameters with different flashing frequencies and color combinations, and to reserve a user-defined area. The signal parsing module is handled by the controller, with a built-in ADC for acquiring control signals from potentiometers or buttons. It monitors the level changes of the interface module in real time through an interrupt service routine, parses the mode selection command, and retrieves the corresponding mode parameters from a table. The execution module uses a PWM drive circuit. The controller generates a square wave signal with an adjustable duty cycle based on the parsed parameters, which drives the MOSFET switch after optocoupler isolation, controlling the current flow of the warning LED.

[0044] The interface module is designed with dual independent channels: one channel connects to the host computer via an RJ45 interface, supporting UART protocol transmission mode configuration data; the other channel connects to the physical controller via a 5mm audio jack, converting voltage signals into digital instructions through a resistor divider network.

[0045] When the solar-powered strobe warning control box is powered on, the controller automatically loads the default configuration from the mode storage module. During operation, it processes signal parsing and drive output in parallel through a multi-task scheduling mechanism. In case of abnormalities, the hardware watchdog will automatically reset the system. The entire implementation requires careful electromagnetic compatibility design, with ferrite beads and TVS diodes added to the signal lines to ensure stable operation in industrial environments.

[0046] Specifically, the solar-powered strobe warning sub-control box supports multiple warning modes. It can issue multiple sets of warning mode parameters for different modes according to different scenarios, as shown in Table 1. When the preset mode does not meet the needs of the scenario, the solar-powered strobe warning sub-control box supports the configuration and activation of multiple custom warning modes.

[0051] The external monitoring platform is the StarRiver2.0 platform (StarRiver Visualization and Analysis Co-creation Platform). The StarRiver2.0 platform works in conjunction with the solar-powered flashing warning sub-control box to achieve several key functions. When the solar-powered flashing warning sub-control box is put into operation, after the sub-control box is powered on, the controller sends a registration request containing information such as the solar-powered flashing warning sub-control box ID and hardware version to the platform via a wireless communication module. Upon receiving the request, the StarRiver2.0 platform verifies the legitimacy of the solar-powered flashing warning sub-control box, allocates a communication address and storage space, establishes a stable connection, and completes the online process. In the parameter configuration phase, the administrator sets parameters such as the sensor sampling interval and flashing warning frequency on the StarRiver2.0 platform interface.

The StarRiver2.0 platform displays and stores this data in real time for easy analysis. For fault alarms, the controller monitors in real time. Once sensor anomalies or communication failures are detected, alarm information is immediately generated and uploaded. Upon receiving this information, the StarRiver2.0 platform triggers an audible and visual alert and notifies the administrator. When upgrading the solar-powered strobe warning sub-control box, the StarRiver2.0 platform packages the upgrade program and pushes it via the wireless communication module. After receiving and verifying the program, the controller executes the upgrade and provides feedback on the results. In mode configuration and deployment, the administrator defines different operating modes and trigger conditions on the StarRiver2.0 platform.
