[0022] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs; the terminology used herein in the specification of the application is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the application; the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, in the specification and the foregoing drawings of this application are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. The terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification or the foregoing drawings of this application are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a particular order.

[0023] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of this application. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0024] This utility model provides an automatically positioning vehicle detector device, such as... Figure 1-4As shown, the automatically positioning vehicle detector device includes: a support plate 1, on which a sliding groove 2 and a cavity 22 are provided; a screw 3 is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the sliding groove 2, and one end of the screw 3 extends into the interior of the cavity 22; a slider 4 threaded onto the screw 3, the slider 4 being slidably connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove 2; an electric slide rail 6 fixedly mounted on the top of the slider 4; a housing 7 fixedly mounted on the sliding block of the electric slide rail 6; a camera 8 for detecting the bottom of the vehicle fixedly mounted on the top of the housing 7; a first servo motor 5 fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the cavity 22, the output shaft of the first servo motor 5 being fixedly connected to one end of the screw 3; and a marking mechanism for locating damaged parts assembled on the housing 7.

[0025] In this solution, when using the device to detect the bottom of a vehicle, the vehicle is first driven to the top of the support plate 1. Then, the first servo motor 5 is started to drive the screw 3 to rotate. The screw 3 drives the slider 4 to slide horizontally in the sliding groove 2, which in turn drives the camera 8 to move left and right on the bottom of the vehicle. This allows the camera 8 to detect different positions on the bottom of the vehicle by moving left and right. To move the camera 8 forward and backward, the electric slide rail 6 is started to drive the housing 7 to move forward and backward. This allows the camera 8 to detect different positions on the bottom of the vehicle by moving forward and backward. When a damaged area is detected, the first servo motor 5 and the electric slide rail 6 are turned off. Then, the damaged area can be sprayed with a marking mechanism to mark and locate it. This allows maintenance personnel to quickly find the damaged location during subsequent processing, which can improve maintenance efficiency.

[0026] It should be noted that currently, new energy vehicles or energy storage modules / cabinets have relatively large power capacities, requiring multiple battery packs connected in series and parallel. To achieve precise monitoring of individual battery pack zones, the composite fire detectors installed inside the pack enclosure need to be coded for differentiation. Currently, there are two approaches: one involves manually setting location information after installation for identification, differentiation, and management. This manual setting method is not only inefficient but also prone to errors, especially in large-scale deployments. The other method relies on hardwired encoding lines, with one encoding line connecting multiple detectors. The location is determined by encoding the voltage differences between the different detectors. This method not only requires consideration of the connection sequence but also suffers from the inconvenience of the entire link becoming unencoded if one detector disconnects or malfunctions. Furthermore, updating the location information when a detector changes position is also a challenge. Therefore, a solution that enables automatic detector positioning and encoding is needed to improve work efficiency and reduce errors caused by human factors.

[0027] To solve the above problems, a detector body was also installed on one side of the upright plate 21, the principle of which is referenced. Figure 4 The yellow part shows the wiring method for the corresponding vehicle location. The voltage is divided by the resistors connected to the vehicle wiring harness and the circuit board. The voltage after voltage division is connected to the ADC pin of the detector control unit. After receiving the ADC signal, the control unit analyzes the signal through an algorithm to determine the number of detectors and the corresponding voltage division value, and determines the location of the detector. The number of detectors can be increased or decreased according to the actual project needs. Since the length and resistance of the wiring harness are different at different installation locations, the control unit can determine the corresponding location by the change in voltage value.

[0028] Its positioning method:

[0029] The voltage obtained by connecting different resistors to the vehicle wiring harness is very accurate, which can precisely determine the location of the detector.

[0030] Easy to replace: Since this positioning method is related to the resistance of the vehicle wiring harness and not to the detector, the detector is very easy to replace and maintain, and no personnel are needed to determine the position of the detector.

[0031] Easy to expand: If more position detectors are needed, simply connect a suitable resistor to the corresponding wiring terminal, and the program algorithm can lock the position without changing the wiring harness and detector at the corresponding position. This reduces workload and increases accuracy.

[0032] Easy to remove: If you need to remove a detector in a certain location, or if some detectors in certain locations have problems such as open circuits or malfunctions, it will not affect the detectors in other locations, greatly reducing the failure rate.

[0033] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, the marking mechanism includes: a rotating tube 9 rotatably mounted on the box body 7, a spray pipe 10 fixedly mounted on the rotating tube 9, and a nozzle 11 fixedly mounted at one end of the spray pipe 10; a second servo motor 12 fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the top of the box body 7, a first bevel gear 13 fixedly sleeved on the output shaft of the second servo motor 12; a second bevel gear 14 fixedly sleeved on the rotating tube 9, the second bevel gear 14 meshing with the first bevel gear 13; and a connecting pipe 15 fixedly mounted on the box body 7, one end of the connecting pipe 15 being sealed and rotatably connected to one end of the rotating tube 9.

[0034] In this embodiment, the marking mechanism is used to locate the damaged area. When in use, the second servo motor 12 is started, which drives the first bevel gear 13 to rotate. The first bevel gear 13 drives the rotating tube 9 to rotate on the box 7 through the second bevel gear 14. The rotating tube 9 drives the spray pipe 10 to rotate half a turn, so that the nozzle 11 on the spray pipe 10 is directly above the camera 8. Then, paint can be delivered into the connecting pipe 15, so that the paint enters the rotating tube 9 from the connecting pipe 15. The rotating tube 9 delivers the paint to the spray pipe 10, and finally sprays it out from the nozzle 11. This can mark and locate the damaged area, so that maintenance personnel can quickly find the damaged location during subsequent processing, making the location more convenient.

[0035] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the vehicle detector device capable of automatic positioning further includes a feeding mechanism installed on the support plate 1 for conveying paint into the connecting pipe 15.

[0036] In this embodiment, the required coating can be delivered into the connecting pipe 15 by using a feeding mechanism.

[0037] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the feeding mechanism includes: a vertical plate 20 fixedly installed on the top of the support plate 1, and a box 16 for storing paint fixedly installed on one side of the vertical plate 20; a pump body 17 fixedly installed on one side of the vertical plate 20, and a through pipe 18 fixedly installed on the liquid suction end of the pump body 17, one end of the through pipe 18 extending into the interior of the box 16; and a flexible hose 19 fixedly installed on the liquid discharge end of the pump body 17, one end of the flexible hose 19 being fixedly connected to one end of the connecting pipe 15.

[0038] In this embodiment, when the feeding mechanism is in use, the pump body 17 is started, and the pump body 17 will transport the paint in the box 16 to the hose 19 through the through pipe 18. The hose 19 will transport the paint to the connecting pipe 15, and then into the rotating pipe 9. The rotating pipe 9 will transport the paint to the spray pipe 10, and finally spray it out from the nozzle 11, thereby realizing the marking and positioning of the damaged parts.

[0039] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a triangular plate 23 is fixedly installed on one side of the support plate 1, and an anti-slip pad is provided on the surface of the triangular plate 23.

[0040] In this embodiment, the use of the triangular plate 23 makes it convenient for people to drive the vehicle to be inspected onto the support plate 1. The use of the anti-slip mat prevents the vehicle from slipping on the triangular plate 23, allowing the vehicle to drive onto the support plate 1 more stably.

[0041] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, an adding tube is fixedly installed on the top of the box 16 for adding paint into the box 16.

[0042] In this embodiment, the use of a tube makes it convenient for people to add the required paint into the box 16.

[0043] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, a cover is threaded onto the adding tube, and the cover is used to seal the adding tube.

[0044] In this embodiment, the use of a cover can shield the filling tube after the paint has been added, preventing external impurities from entering the housing 16 through the filling tube.

[0045] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a display 21 is fixedly installed on one side of the upright plate 20, and the display 21 is used to display the captured image of the camera 8.

[0046] In this embodiment, the display 21 can be used to display the images captured by the camera 8 so that people can observe the damage to the bottom of the vehicle.

[0047] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, through holes and grooves are respectively provided on the inner walls of both sides of the sliding groove 2. Bearings are fixedly installed on the inner walls of the through holes and the grooves, and the inner rings of the two bearings are fixedly connected to the screw 3.

[0048] In this embodiment, the use of two bearings not only keeps the screw 3 stable during rotation, but also provides good support for the screw 3.

[0049] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, the screw 3 is made of stainless steel, and the spray pipe 10 is configured as an L-shape.

[0050] In this embodiment, the screw 3 made of stainless steel has good corrosion resistance and durability and is not easily damaged.

[0051] In summary, compared with related technologies, this solution utilizes the first servo motor 5, which enables the screw 3 to drive the slider 4 and the structure above the slider 4 to move left and right. This allows the camera 8 to detect different locations on the bottom of the vehicle by moving left and right. The electric slide rail 6 allows for adjustment of the camera 8's position, enabling it to detect different locations on the bottom of the vehicle by moving back and forth. Through the cooperation of the marking mechanism and the feeding mechanism, when the camera 8 detects a damaged location on the bottom of the vehicle, the damaged area can be quickly sprayed with paint, thus achieving marking and positioning. This allows maintenance personnel to quickly locate the damaged area during subsequent processing, improving maintenance efficiency.
