Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of police dog vest technology, and in particular to a smart multifunctional police dog vest. Background Technology
[0002] Police dogs, as an irreplaceable force, are always active on the front lines of critical missions such as counter-terrorism, criminal investigation, and search and rescue, thanks to their keen senses, efficient tracking abilities, and high degree of cooperation with humans. However, police dogs face many dangers while working. For example, prolonged exposure to the scorching outdoors or running in hot weather can easily lead to heatstroke, which can severely affect their vital signs. Common police dog vests have a relatively simple structure, making it impossible to cool down the dogs immediately in hot weather or monitor their vital signs in real time. Therefore, this application proposes a smart vest that can cool down police dogs in hot weather based on changes in their body temperature and monitor their vital signs in real time. Utility Model Content

[0026] Example 1
[0027] Please see Figure 1-7 A smart multifunctional vest for police dogs, comprising an upper vest body 10 and a lower vest body 20.
[0028] The upper vest 10 is sewn and fixed on the left side and the lower vest 20 on the right side, with irregular through holes for heat dissipation. The upper vest 10 and lower vest 20 are double-layered. The outer layer is made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) and Kevlar fiber, which can resist punctures from sharp objects such as daggers and glass shards. The inner layer is made of honeycomb sponge pads. (The size of the upper vest 10 and lower vest 20 can be changed according to the size of police dogs to facilitate wearing.) A fixing strap 12 is sewn and fixed on the right side of the upper vest 10, and a buckle 11 is attached to the fixing strap 12. A fixing strap 21 is sewn and fixed on the left side of the lower vest 20, and a socket 22 is attached to the fixing strap 21. The buckle 11 matches the socket 22 to facilitate wearing the upper vest 10 and lower vest 20 on the police dog.
[0029] The upper side of the vest 10 is equipped with a cooling component, which can cool down the police dogs in hot weather and prevent them from suffering heatstroke.
[0030] The cooling component includes a small water tank 40, which is fixedly connected to the upper side of the vest body 10 (it can be sewn onto the vest body using straps). The small water tank 40 is a plastic tank. The small water tank 40 is connected to a submersible pump 50 through a connecting pipe 41. The submersible pump 50 can be a miniature DC submersible pump, with a power generally between 5-10W. Although the flow rate of this submersible pump is small, it is sufficient to meet the water circulation needs of the circulation pipe in the vest and has low energy consumption. The outlet of the submersible pump 50 is connected to a connecting pipe 60. The submersible pump 50 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the vest body 10 (it can be sewn onto the vest body using straps).
[0031] The interior of the upper vest 10 and the lower vest 20 are both hollow and connected. A circulation pipe 13 is attached inside. One end of the circulation pipe 13 is connected to the connecting pipe 60, and the other end is connected to the small water tank 40. The water in the small water tank 40 is driven by the submersible pump 50 to circulate along the circulation pipe 13, which can remove the heat from the upper vest 10 and the lower vest 20, thereby cooling down the police dog.
[0032] One-way valves are installed on both the connecting pipe 2 60 and the outlet end of the circulation pipe 13 to prevent water backflow.
[0033] The circulation tube 13 consists of multiple U-shaped tubes connected end to end, which are distributed inside the upper vest 10 and the lower vest 20 to better cool down the police dog.
[0034] To better cool down the police dogs, the outer wall of the small water tank 40 is equipped with a semiconductor cooling component (the semiconductor cooling component can be a TEC1-12706 semiconductor cooling chip, with a cooling power of about 40-50W, which can effectively reduce the water temperature inside the tank). The semiconductor cooling component cools down the water inside the small water tank 40, which can accurately reduce the water temperature inside the small water tank and stabilize it within the set temperature range, providing a stable cooling effect for the vest and avoiding discomfort to the police dogs caused by excessively low temperatures.
[0035] The semiconductor cooling component includes a cooling end 70 and a heat dissipation end 71. The cooling end 70 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the housing, and the heat dissipation end 71 is fixedly connected to the left side of the cooling end 70. A heat dissipation plate is provided between the heat dissipation end 71 and the cooling end 70.
[0036] The upper vest body 10 is also fixedly connected to the control box 30 (which can be sewn onto the vest body using straps). The control box 30 integrates a controller and a battery board. The controller serves as the main control unit and is electrically connected to the submersible pump 50 and the semiconductor cooling component via wires. The battery board is electrically connected to the controller via wires and is used to provide power for the operation of the controller and other electrical components.
[0037] The control box 30 is equipped with a control switch, which is electrically connected to the solar panel via wires and is used to control the power supply of the solar panel to be turned on or off.
[0038] A temperature sensor is installed on the inner wall of the small water tank 40. It is electrically connected to the controller through a wire (the wire can pass through the water inlet reserved on the upper side of the small water tank 40 and then be plugged with a rubber cap) to monitor the temperature change inside the small water tank 40.
[0039] Temperature sensors 2 are installed on the lower side of the upper vest 10. They are electrically connected to the controller via wires to monitor changes in the police dog's body temperature. When the body temperature exceeds the set temperature value (the upper temperature limit can be set to 30 or 40℃), the controller starts the submersible pump 50. The submersible pump 50 drives the water in the small water tank 40 to circulate along the circulation pipe 13, which can remove the heat from the upper vest 10 and the lower vest 20. As the water temperature in the small water tank 40 changes, the temperature sensors 1 transmit their signals to the controller. The controller then turns on the semiconductor cooling component to cool the water in the small water tank 40. Once the temperature in the small water tank 40 drops to the set temperature value, the semiconductor cooling component turns off.
[0040] Both temperature sensor 1 and temperature sensor 2 can be selected from the DS18B20 temperature sensor. It has the advantages of high accuracy (up to ±0.5℃) and strong anti-interference ability. It can accurately monitor the water temperature in the water tank and the changes in the body temperature of the police dog. Moreover, the power consumption is extremely low, with an average current of only about 1mA in the working state, which has little impact on the overall circuit power consumption.
[0041] To avoid affecting the work of the police dogs, the overall weight of the cooling components, control box, and semiconductor cooling components should be controlled between 0.5 and 0.75 kg (including the water in the small water tank).
[0042] The upper side of the vest 20 is also equipped with a heart rate monitoring sensor, which is close to the heart of the police dog. The heart rate monitoring sensor is electrically connected to the controller through wires to monitor the heart rate changes of the police dog. The heart rate monitoring sensor uses the MAX30102 heart rate and blood oxygen sensor module, which integrates heart rate and blood oxygen monitoring functions and can accurately obtain the heart rate data of the police dog. The module operates at a voltage of 1.8-3.3V and has relatively low power consumption.
[0043] The control box 30 is equipped with a small waterproof display screen, which is electrically connected to the controller via wires and can display data on the changes in the police dog's heart rate; the small waterproof display screen can be a 1.5-inch or 1.3-inch OLED display screen.
[0044] The controller uses an STM32 series microcontroller, such as the STM32F103C8T6, which can meet the control and data processing requirements of submersible pumps, semiconductor cooling components, temperature sensors and heart rate monitoring sensors. Its power consumption is also relatively low, with an overall power consumption of about 10-20mW under normal operating conditions.
[0045] The battery panel can be a lithium polymer battery panel, such as a lithium polymer battery with a capacity of 2000-3000mAh and an output voltage of 3.7V, which can provide stable power support for the entire system.
[0046] It should be noted that a charging port is reserved on the control box 30 for charging the battery panel later.
[0047] In actual operation of this embodiment, when police dogs need to work outdoors in hot weather, the small water tank 40 can be filled with about two-thirds water beforehand. Then, the vest is put on the police dog. The battery can be turned on to activate the heart rate monitoring sensor to monitor the police dog's heart rate changes. Alternatively, the battery can be turned on when the police dog is going outdoors to work, and the heart rate monitoring sensor will monitor the police dog's heart rate changes. The temperature sensor will monitor the police dog's body temperature changes. When the body temperature exceeds the set temperature value, the controller will start the submersible pump 50. The submersible pump 50 drives the water in the small water tank 40 to circulate along the circulation pipe 13, which can remove the heat from the upper vest 10 and the lower vest 20. As the water temperature in the small water tank 40 changes, the temperature sensor transmits its signal to the controller. The controller will then turn on the semiconductor cooling component to cool the water in the small water tank 40. Once the temperature in the small water tank 40 drops to the set temperature value, the semiconductor cooling component will be turned off.
[0048] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, various modifications and variations are possible with this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
