Detailed Implementation

[0032] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0033] Combination Figures 1 to 11 According to an embodiment of the present invention, a sanitation vehicle 100 includes a frame, a cover 10, and multiple monitoring devices. The cover 10 is installed on the outside of the frame, which can protect the frame and improve the overall appearance consistency of the sanitation vehicle 100. Further, the outside of the cover 10 includes multiple split-type cover structures, and the multiple monitoring devices are respectively installed on the multiple split-type cover structures of the cover 10. That is, by providing multiple split-type cover structures for installing multiple monitoring devices on the cover 10, it is easy to position and install the monitoring devices on the outside of the cover 10. By providing split-type cover structures on the cover 10, it is easy to remove and install from the outside of the cover 10. The multiple monitoring devices are configured to monitor the external environment of the cover 10. The split-type cover structures can both facilitate the installation of monitoring devices and protect them. The split-type cover structures can be constructed directly on the cover 10 or installed on the outer shell of the cover 10.

[0034] Alternatively, the monitoring device can also be directly and detachably mounted on the housing 10.

[0035] Specifically, the sanitation vehicle 100 is equipped with multiple monitoring devices for monitoring the external environment, which can protect or guide the sanitation vehicle 100 during operation. Specifically, when the sanitation vehicle 100 is manned, the multiple monitoring devices can alert the driver, facilitating operation. When the sanitation vehicle 100 is unmanned, the multiple monitoring devices can monitor the external environment, which helps in planning the vehicle's route, allowing it to avoid obstacles and protecting the vehicle's casing 10 from collisions. Installing multiple monitoring devices on the outside of the casing 10 facilitates monitoring of the external environment and improves monitoring accuracy.

[0036] More specifically, in order to facilitate the assembly and maintenance of multiple monitoring devices, the multiple monitoring devices are configured to be detachable and installable from the outside of the housing 10. This facilitates the assembly of multiple monitoring devices and allows them to be directly detached from the outside when maintenance is required, thus facilitating repair and maintenance.

[0037] Especially when the sanitation vehicle 100 is an unmanned sanitation vehicle 100, the sanitation vehicle 100 may have a lot of monitoring devices, and in order to improve the driving safety of the sanitation vehicle 100, the monitoring devices may need to be maintained frequently. By setting the monitoring devices and the housing 10 in a separate form, when the monitoring devices need to be repaired or replaced, it is not necessary to disassemble the housing 10. Instead, the monitoring devices located on the outside of the housing 10 can be directly removed for maintenance, repair or replacement, which brings convenience to use and reduces the maintenance cost of the sanitation vehicle 100.

[0038] According to the embodiment of the present utility model, the sanitation vehicle 100 can install and remove multiple monitoring devices from the outside of the cover 10, which facilitates the assembly and maintenance of the monitoring devices.

[0039] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments of this utility model, the outer surface of the cover 10 is provided with a mounting groove 110, and the multiple monitoring devices include a first monitoring element 21, which is disposed in the mounting groove 110. That is to say, the mounting groove 110 suitable for installing the first monitoring element 21 can be directly constructed on the cover 10, which facilitates assembly and simplifies the structure of the sanitation vehicle 100. For example, the first monitoring element 21 can be a part of the monitoring element that needs to be exposed to the outside. In this way, the first monitoring element 21 can be partially connected to the cover 10 and partially exposed on the outside of the cover 10.

[0040] Alternatively, the monitoring device may include a first monitoring element 21 and a cover plate. The first monitoring element 21 is disposed in the mounting groove 110, and the cover plate covers the opening of the mounting groove 110. The first monitoring element 21 is disposed inside the cover plate. Thus, the cover plate can protect the first monitoring element 21 after it is assembled.

[0041] Optionally, the first monitoring element 21 can be a monitoring element for achieving positioning monitoring, so as to realize the positioning and navigation of the sanitation vehicle 100, thereby confirming the driving position of the sanitation vehicle 100. Therefore, the mounting slot 110 can be provided on the top of the cover 10 to facilitate the first monitoring element 21 to transmit or receive signals. Multiple first monitoring elements 21 can be included, and multiple first monitoring elements 21 can improve the accuracy of monitoring.

[0042] Specifically, in combination Figure 2 The frame may be provided with a first bracket 31, and the inner side of the cover 10 may be provided with a second bracket 16. The bottom wall of the mounting groove 110 is provided with a through hole, and the second bracket 16 is opposite to the through hole. The first monitoring element 21 passes through the mounting groove 110 and is connected to the first bracket 31, thereby improving the structural stability of the first monitoring element 21 after installation.

[0043] More specifically, the first bracket 31 includes an "L"-shaped first section and a second section, and the second bracket 16 includes an "L"-shaped third section and a fourth section. The first section of the first bracket 31 is connected to the vehicle frame, the second section extends vertically and connects to the vertically extending third section of the second bracket 16, and the fourth section of the second bracket 16 is connected to the bottom wall of the mounting groove 110. One of the second or third sections has a vertically extending slot, allowing the first monitoring element 21 to move vertically during assembly by adjusting the relative positions of the first bracket 31 and the second bracket 16. This results in a tighter fit between the first monitoring element 21 and the mounting groove 110, reducing manufacturing precision requirements and improving fit. The fourth section may also have a slot, extending horizontally. This allows the mounting position of the first monitoring element 21 to be adjusted horizontally when connected to the fourth section of the second bracket 16, positioning it in the central area of ​​the mounting groove 110.

[0044] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 11 In some embodiments of this utility model, the sanitation vehicle 100 further includes multiple mounting seats, which are disposed on the cover 10. Multiple monitoring devices include a second monitoring element 22, which is mounted on the mounting seat. That is, the multiple monitoring devices may include a second monitoring element 22 with other monitoring functions to improve the functionality of the sanitation vehicle 100. The second monitoring element 22 can be mounted on the outside of the cover 10 via the mounting seat, i.e., the second monitoring element 22 is disposed inside the mounting seat, and the mounting seat is mounted on the cover 10.

[0045] In this way, the mounting base can protect the second monitoring element 22 and facilitate modular management of the monitoring devices of the sanitation vehicle 100. In practical applications, the second monitoring element 22 can be pre-installed in the mounting base, and the assembly personnel can directly install the mounting base onto the cover 10. Alternatively, the assembly personnel can first install the second monitoring element 22 onto the mounting base, and then install the mounting base onto the cover 10, or install the mounting base first, and then install the second monitoring element 22. This utility model is not limited to any particular type. The mounting base can be connected to the cover 10 by screws.

[0046] Specifically, the second monitoring element 22 can be a lidar for monitoring obstacles around the cover 10. By setting up a lidar, the effects of road monitoring, vehicle positioning and dynamic obstacle avoidance can be achieved, which helps to improve the reliability and safety of the driving system decision-making when the sanitation vehicle 100 is being driven.

[0047] Furthermore, combined Figure 1 and Figure 11In some embodiments of this utility model, the plurality of mounting seats include a first mounting seat 11 located on the front side of the cover 10. The first mounting seat 11 is located on the left and right sides of the cover 10 and extends forward. Therefore, the second monitoring element 22 located within the first mounting seat 11 can be positioned on the left and right sides in front of the cover 10, thereby enabling monitoring of the sanitation vehicle 100 or the environment surrounding the front of the cover 10. Furthermore, the forward extension of the first mounting seat 11 relative to the cover 10 expands the monitoring range of the environment surrounding the front of the sanitation vehicle 100 and improves the monitoring effect.

[0048] In some embodiments of this utility model, the plurality of mounting seats include a second mounting seat 12 disposed on the rear side of the cover 10. The second mounting seat 12 is disposed on the left and right sides of the cover 10 and extends rearward. Thus, the second monitoring element 22 disposed within the second mounting seat 12 can be positioned on the left and right sides behind the cover 10, thereby enabling monitoring of the sanitation vehicle 100 or the environment surrounding the rear of the cover 10. Furthermore, the first mounting seat 11 extends rearward relative to the cover 10, which expands the monitoring range of the environment surrounding the rear of the sanitation vehicle 100 and improves the monitoring effect.

[0049] When the sanitation vehicle 100 is equipped with both the first mounting base 11 and the second mounting base 12, lidar is installed at all four corners of the sanitation vehicle 100, namely the front left, front right, rear left, and rear right, which helps to improve the accuracy and reliability of monitoring.

[0050] Furthermore, combining Figure 1 and Figure 5 In some embodiments of this utility model, the mounting base includes a first mounting plate 111 and a first fixing plate 112. The first mounting plate 111 is connected to the cover 10 and forms a first mounting cavity 101 with a downward opening. The first fixing plate 112 covers the first mounting cavity 101. The second monitoring element 22 is connected to the first fixing plate 112, and a portion of the second monitoring element 22 extends out of the first fixing plate 112. Specifically, one end of the first fixing plate 112 can be connected to the cover 10 and extend in a direction away from the cover 10, such as extending forward or backward. The first fixing plate 112 can form a first mounting cavity 101 for accommodating the second monitoring element 22. The first fixing plate 112 can close the opening of the first mounting cavity 101, and the first fixing plate 112 can be used to install the second monitoring element 22. In this way, after installation, the second monitoring element 22 can be located inside the first mounting cavity 101 and a portion can extend out of the first mounting cavity 101, that is, a portion of the second monitoring element 22 is exposed, thereby enabling better monitoring of the external environment of the cover 10. More specifically, the opening of the first mounting cavity 101 faces downwards, so that after the second monitoring element 22 is installed, the part of the second monitoring element 22 used for monitoring can directly irradiate downwards to observe the surrounding environment.

[0051] In actual use, if the second monitoring element 22 is located on the upper part of the sanitation vehicle 100, the opening of the first mounting cavity 101 can face downward or tilt downward. If the second monitoring element 22 is located on the lower part of the sanitation vehicle 100, the opening of the first mounting cavity 101 can also face upward or tilt upward.

[0052] During assembly, the second monitoring element 22 can be installed on the first fixing plate 112 first, and then the first fixing plate 112 can be installed on the first mounting plate 111 to complete the assembly. During disassembly, since the second monitoring element 22 is connected to the first fixing plate 112, the maintenance or replacement of the second monitoring element 22 can be achieved by simply removing the first fixing plate 112.

[0053] To further improve the installation of the second monitoring element 22, or to enhance the structural stability after installation, in some embodiments of this utility model, the mounting base further includes a first mounting bracket 113. The first mounting bracket 113 covers the outside of the second monitoring element 22 and is connected to the first fixing plate 112. Combined with... Figure 6 The first mounting bracket 113 can enclose the second monitoring element 22 and connect it to the first fixing plate 112, thereby fixing the second monitoring element 22 to the first fixing plate 112. Thus, even when there is no suitable mounting structure for the second monitoring element 22 or the mounting structure is incompatible, installation can still be achieved, and the structural stability after installation can be improved. Specifically, the first mounting bracket 113 includes a first side wall, a second side wall, and a top wall. The first and second side walls are respectively connected to opposite sides of the top wall, supporting the side walls of the second monitoring element 22, and the top wall covers the top wall of the second monitoring element 22. During assembly, the lower ends of the first and second side walls are provided with flanges, which are connected to the first fixing member by fasteners.

[0054] Combination Figure 3 , Figure 7 and Figure 9 In some embodiments of this utility model, the sanitation vehicle 100 includes a cover plate 13, which forms a second mounting cavity 102. Multiple monitoring devices include a third monitoring element 23, which is disposed within the second mounting cavity 102. Specifically, the cover plate 13 can form a second mounting cavity 102 for accommodating the third monitoring element 23, and the cover plate 13 can protect the third monitoring element 23. In practical applications, the third monitoring element 23 can be mounted on the cover plate 13, and then the cover plate 13 can be mounted on the housing 10, thereby achieving the installation of the third monitoring element 23. Alternatively, the third monitoring element 23 can be directly mounted on the housing 10, with the cover plate 13 covering the outside of the third monitoring element.

[0055] To further improve the installation of the third monitoring element 23 or enhance the structural stability after installation, in some embodiments of this utility model, the sanitation vehicle 100 further includes a second mounting bracket 114. The second mounting bracket 114 is disposed within the second mounting cavity 102, and the third monitoring element 23 is connected to the second mounting bracket 114. The second mounting bracket 114 can provide support for the third monitoring element 23. Specifically, the second mounting bracket 114 can be disposed on the cover 10, and the third monitoring element 23 can be mounted on the second mounting bracket 114. Alternatively, the second mounting bracket 114 can be mounted on the cover plate 13, which allows the third monitoring element 23 to be installed on the cover plate 13 and helps improve the structural stability after installation.

[0056] To further protect the installed third monitoring element 23, combined with Figure 10 and Figure 11 In some embodiments of this utility model, the sanitation vehicle 100 further includes a baffle 115, which covers the second mounting cavity 102. The baffle 115 is a light-transmitting plate. Specifically, the third monitoring element 23 can be a camera, such as a surround-view camera. Therefore, to protect the camera, it can be covered by the baffle 115 within the second mounting cavity 102, thereby preventing dust or debris from entering the second mounting cavity 102 and affecting the camera's field of view or damaging the camera lens. To ensure the camera's monitoring function, the baffle 115 can be a light-transmitting plate, such as an acrylic plate, a glass plate, or a transparent plastic plate.

[0057] More specifically, combined Figure 9 The cover plate 13 can be located on the front side of the sanitation vehicle 100 to monitor the environment in front of the sanitation vehicle 100. The cover plate 13 can be located in the middle of the front side of the sanitation vehicle 100 in the left-right direction, thereby increasing the monitoring range. Multiple third monitoring elements 23 can be installed on the front side of the sanitation vehicle 100, such as 360-degree surround view cameras, cameras for illuminating the front, and traffic light recognition cameras. All of the multiple third monitoring elements 23 can be housed within the second mounting cavity 102 and supported by the second mounting bracket 114, thereby improving the compactness of the structure and facilitating assembly and maintenance. When the cover plate 13 is located on the front side of the sanitation vehicle 100, the opening of the second mounting cavity 102 can face forward, thus facilitating the observation of the environment in front by the third monitoring elements 23 or cameras.

[0058] Combination Figure 11 The cover plate 13 can also be located on the left and right sides of the sanitation vehicle 100, and in the middle of the sanitation vehicle 100 along the front-to-back direction. This allows for the installation of a third monitoring element 23 on the left and right sides of the sanitation vehicle 100, enabling environmental monitoring of the left and right sides of the sanitation vehicle 100. When the cover plate 13 is located on the left and right sides of the sanitation vehicle 100, the opening of the second mounting cavity 102 can face downwards or be tilted downwards, facilitating the observation of the side environment of the sanitation vehicle 100 by the third monitoring element 23 or a camera.

[0059] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 3 The cover plate 13 can also be located at the rear of the sanitation vehicle 100 to monitor the environment behind the sanitation vehicle 100. The cover plate 13 can be located in the middle of the rear of the sanitation vehicle 100 in the left-right direction, thereby increasing the monitoring range.

[0060] In some embodiments of this utility model, the cover 10 is provided with mounting holes 103, and a mounting member 14 is provided on the inner side of the cover 10, opposite to the mounting holes 103. Multiple monitoring devices include a third monitoring element 23, which is mounted on the mounting member 14 and can be detached and installed from the outside of the mounting holes 103. Thus, the third monitoring element 23 can be located inside the cover 10 and can be detached and installed from the outside of the cover 10. Therefore, the third monitoring element 23 located inside the cover 10 is protected by the cover 10, improves the uniformity of the cover 10's appearance, and allows for maintenance of the third monitoring element 23 from the outside of the cover 10. In other words, when maintenance or replacement of the third monitoring element 23 located inside the cover 10 is required, it is not necessary to disassemble the cover 10, providing convenience for the use and maintenance of the sanitation vehicle 100.

[0061] Specifically, the mounting component 14 may be located on the rear side of the sanitation vehicle 100 or the cover 10, for mounting the third monitoring element 23 located on the rear side of the sanitation vehicle 100.

[0062] Specifically, in combination Figure 4 and Figure 10 The vehicle frame is equipped with a third bracket 32, and the mounting component 14 is equipped with a fourth bracket 18. The fourth bracket 18 is connected to the third bracket 32. The third monitoring element 23 is mounted on the fourth bracket 18 and housed within the mounting component 14. After assembly, the third monitoring element 23 is opposite to the mounting hole 103, which facilitates maintenance personnel in removing the third monitoring element 23 from the mounting hole 103. The third monitoring element 23 can also monitor the external environment through the mounting hole 103. More specifically, a baffle 115 can be provided at the mounting hole 103 to cover the third monitoring element 23 within the mounting component 14, thereby preventing dust or debris from entering the second mounting cavity 102 and affecting the camera's field of view or damaging the camera lens. To ensure the camera's monitoring function, the baffle 115 can be a light-transmitting plate, such as an acrylic plate, a glass plate, or a transparent plastic plate.

[0063] Specifically, in combination Figure 4The third bracket 32 ​​includes an "L"-shaped first and second section, and the fourth bracket 18 includes an "L"-shaped third and fourth section. The first section of the third bracket 32 ​​is connected to the vehicle frame, the second section extends in the front-rear direction and connects to the front-rear extended third section of the fourth bracket 18, and the fourth section of the fourth bracket 18 is connected to the bottom wall of the mounting component 14. One of the second or third sections has a front-rear extended slot, allowing the fourth monitoring element 24 to move in the front-rear direction during assembly by adjusting the relative positions of the third bracket 32 ​​and the fourth bracket 18. This results in a tighter fit between the first monitoring element 21 and the mounting component 14, reducing manufacturing precision requirements and improving fit. Alternatively, the fourth section can also have a slot and extend in the vertical direction, allowing the installation position of the fourth monitoring element 24 to be adjusted vertically when connected to the fourth section of the fourth bracket 18.

[0064] Furthermore, combined Figure 4 A sealing strip 19 is provided around the mounting hole 103 to improve the sealing effect around the mounting hole 103 and prevent dust and debris from entering the mounting part 14 and entering the inside of the cover plate 13 through the mounting hole 103.

[0065] Optionally, the sealing strip 19 is disposed on the mounting member 14 and surrounds the mounting hole 103. The sealing strip 19 can be disposed between the mounting member 14 and the cover plate 13 to improve the sealing effect.

[0066] Specifically, when the third monitoring element 23 is located at the lower part of the sanitation vehicle 100, the environment at the lower part of the sanitation vehicle 100 is poor because the sanitation vehicle 100 needs to clean up garbage, causing dust to enter the cover 10 through the mounting hole 103. Therefore, by setting the sealing strip 19, a dust prevention effect can be achieved.

[0067] In practical applications, the third monitoring element 23 can be a camera for scanning QR codes, which can then be used to identify information such as sanitation vehicle 100.

[0068] Combination Figure 1 In some embodiments of this utility model, the outer surface of the cover 10 is provided with a boss 15, and a plurality of monitoring devices include a fourth monitoring element 24. The fourth monitoring element 24 is provided on the boss 15, which facilitates the installation of the fourth monitoring element 24. The boss 15 can be provided on the top of the sanitation vehicle 100. Thus, the fourth monitoring element 24 can be used to monitor the overall vehicle status, or to make up for environmental information that other monitoring elements cannot detect, or it can cooperate with other monitoring elements to improve the environmental information outside the sanitation vehicle 100.

[0069] The boss 15 can be located on the top of the cover 10, that is, the top of the sanitation vehicle 100. The boss 15 protrudes upward, which can increase the installation height of the fourth monitoring element 24 and make the monitoring range of the fourth monitoring element 24 larger after installation.

[0070] For example, the fourth monitoring element 24 could be the main lidar.

[0071] The following description, with reference to the accompanying drawings, describes a specific embodiment of the sanitation vehicle 100 of the present invention.

[0072] Combination Figures 1 to 11 According to the sanitation vehicle 100 of this utility model embodiment, the multiple monitoring devices of the sanitation vehicle 100 may include a 360-degree lidar, a surround-view camera, a traffic light camera, a forward camera, a front 360-degree surround-view camera, a left 360-degree surround-view camera, a right 360-degree surround-view camera, a rear 360-degree surround-view camera, a QR code short-focus camera, a QR code long-focus camera, a main lidar, an optical sensor, an industrial control computer, a communication gateway, an autonomous driving domain controller, a GPS (Global Positioning System) mushroom head, etc.

[0073] The front left and front right 360-degree lidar sensors are installed inside the lower front of the front mounting bracket, while the rear left and rear right 360-degree lidar sensors are installed inside the lower rear of the rear mounting bracket. The advantage of this design is that it is easy to disassemble and maintain, and it also provides protection. The mounting bracket and the cover 10 can be fixed to the cover 10 by means of screws or welding.

[0074] The main LiDAR is mounted on the boss 15 of the cover 10. Two GPS nozzles are respectively installed in the mounting slots 110 of the cover 10. The front nozzle is mounted on the second bracket 16, which in turn is mounted on the first bracket 31, which is mounted on the vehicle frame.
