Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of wireless communication equipment technology, and in particular to a wearable communication device for networking in underground space. Background Technology

[0002] Communication equipment, as hardware and software systems used to transmit, receive, and process information, plays a vital role in modern society. It is widely used in telecommunications, networking, broadcasting, and other fields, and its main categories include transmission equipment, network equipment, wireless communication equipment, terminal equipment, broadcasting equipment, dedicated communication equipment, communication auxiliary equipment, as well as software and protocols. These devices constitute the core architecture of modern communication networks, ensuring the efficient transmission and processing of information in various scenarios.

[0003] In two-dimensional linear underground space scenarios such as tunnels, integrated utility tunnels, and mine roadways, the application of communication equipment faces numerous challenges. Due to the elongated, enclosed, and complex structure of these spaces, the signal transmission efficiency of wireless communication equipment is significantly affected by the available space. Traditional relay communication solutions rely on pre-set fixed nodes, a deployment method that is not only costly but also lacks flexibility, making it difficult to adapt to the complex and ever-changing environment and operational needs of underground spaces. Using mobile communication equipment presents challenges related to its own weight and battery life. The weight of the equipment makes movement and deployment in underground spaces difficult. Furthermore, when operators carry communication equipment to form networks underground, the harsh operating environment significantly reduces the lifespan of the equipment. Simultaneously, operators are also susceptible to the effects of carrying the equipment, leading to decreased operational efficiency and potentially even safety hazards.

[0004] In summary, existing communication equipment and solutions suffer from high deployment costs, poor flexibility, susceptibility to gravity effects, and short lifespans in two-dimensional linear underground space operations. There is an urgent need for a new type of communication equipment or solution that can overcome these shortcomings to meet the demands for efficient and stable communication in underground space operations. Therefore, this invention proposes a wearable communication device for networking in underground spaces. Utility Model Content

[0048] This application provides an embodiment of a wearable communication device for networking in underground space. Please refer to the following for details. Figure 1 .

[0049] The wearable communication device for underground space networking in this embodiment includes: a support component and a body 1 detachably mounted on the support component. The support component includes a back plate 8 and a support plate 9 fixed to the bottom of the back plate 8. The back plate 8 is provided with a shoulder strap 17 and a waist belt 18 for wearing. The body 1 is mounted on the support plate 9, and one side of the body 1 is in contact with the outer surface of the back plate 8. The support component is provided with a limiting mechanism for limiting the body 1, and the support component is engaged with the body 1 through the limiting mechanism. A breathable pad 14 is rotatably connected to the side of the back plate 8 away from the body 1.

[0050] It should be noted that the wearable communication device used for networking in underground spaces employs a detachable connection design between the wearable support components and the main body 1. The back plate 8 and the support plate 9 form a stable support platform. The support plate 9 supports the main body 1 in conjunction with the locking mechanism, enabling rapid assembly and disassembly of the device (flexible deployment or disassembly according to operational needs) while ensuring the main body 1 remains stable in complex underground environments, preventing it from falling or shifting due to gravity. The wearable system, consisting of the shoulder strap 17 and waist belt 18, evenly distributes the device's weight across the operator's shoulders and waist, effectively alleviating the burden of traditional carrying methods and reducing the impact of the device on the operator's movement. It is particularly suitable for long-distance mobile operations in narrow underground spaces, significantly reducing labor costs caused by the device's weight. The design addresses the issue of increased strength by using a rotatable breathable pad 14 on the backplate 8 to create a flexible barrier between the device and the user's back. This cushioning reduces direct hard contact between the device and the user, while the rotatable design, combined with the backplate 8 structure, promotes airflow and improves heat dissipation in enclosed underground spaces, reducing the impact of high temperatures or humidity on the device's lifespan. Furthermore, the wearable design overcomes the limitations of traditional relay communication solutions that rely on pre-set fixed nodes. Operators no longer need to deploy bulky fixed equipment; they can easily carry the device into underground spaces using the shoulder strap 17 and waist belt 18. The quick-installation structure of the tray 9 and the body 1 enables plug-and-play networking, significantly reducing deployment and time costs and enhancing the flexibility and scalability of the communication network in complex underground environments. This design, through a combination of ergonomics and functional practicality, systematically solves the problems of device gravity, poor wearing comfort, high deployment costs, and insufficient environmental adaptability in existing technologies, providing an efficient, stable, and user-friendly communication solution for two-dimensional linear underground spaces such as tunnels and mine roadways.

[0051] The above is Embodiment 1 of a wearable communication device for underground space networking provided in this application. The following is Embodiment 2 of a wearable communication device for underground space networking provided in this application. Please refer to the following for details. Figures 1 to 6 .

[0052] The wearable communication device for underground space networking in this embodiment includes: a support component and a body 1 detachably mounted on the support component. The support component includes a back plate 8 and a support plate 9 fixed to the bottom of the back plate 8. The back plate 8 is provided with a shoulder strap 17 and a waist belt 18 for wearing. The body 1 is mounted on the support plate 9, and one side of the body 1 is in contact with the outer surface of the back plate 8. The support component is provided with a limiting mechanism for limiting the movement of the body 1, and the support component is engaged with the body 1 through the limiting mechanism. A breathable pad 14 is rotatably connected to the side of the back plate 8 away from the body 1. Specifically, one side of the breathable pad 14 is in contact with the back plate 8 and can be fixed by Velcro; the other side is provided with an arc-shaped structure for contact with the back of the human body.

[0053] The body 1 has slots 7 on both side walls, located above the tray 9. The limiting mechanism includes a first engaging component and a second engaging component, located on the left and right sides of the body 1 respectively, for engaging with the slots 7 on the side walls of the body 1. Both the first and second engaging components include a locking rod 10 and a spring piece 11. The locking rod 10 is rotatably mounted on the top of the tray 9 for engaging with the slot 7. The spring piece 11 is fixedly mounted on the side wall of the back plate 8 for pressing the locking rod 10 into the slot 7. The spring piece 11 abuts against the locking rod 10. Specifically, the locking rod 10 has an L-shaped structure.

[0054] It should be noted that when wearing the device, the user places the device 1 on the tray 9. When the device 1 moves down, the slot 7 moves to the lever 10. At this time, the elasticity of the spring 11 will push the lever 10 to rotate around its bottom end, so that the lever 10 is engaged in the slot 7 to achieve the limit.

[0055] Preferably, the upper surface of the tray 9 is provided with a groove that matches the shape of the bottom of the body 1. The body 1 is placed in the groove, which can further strengthen the limiting of the body 1, achieve stable placement, and avoid the problem of the body 1 falling off during use.

[0056] The top of the main body 1 is equipped with a charging port 4, a switch 6, and a slot 5 for inserting a card for the built-in antenna 2. A dust cover 3 is rotatably connected to the top of the main body 1 to protect the charging port 4, switch 6, and slot 5. Specifically, the top of the main body 1 is provided with a mounting groove, in which the charging port 4, switch 6, and slot 5 are all located. The dust cover 3 is rotatably connected to the wall of the mounting groove, forming a groove cover for the mounting groove, making the overall device more flat and aesthetically pleasing.

[0057] Understandably, the dust cover 3 is used to prevent dust during transport. When in use, simply open the dust cover 3 to perform wiring operations. The dust cover 3 protects the charging port 4, switch 6, and socket 5, effectively preventing underground dust from entering and thus avoiding the problem of the device becoming unusable due to underground operation.

[0058] The width of the back plate 8 is greater than the width of the body 1. The portions of the back plate 8 that extend beyond the body 1 are threaded along the thickness direction with screws 12 for lifting the breathable pad 14. The ends of the screws 12 are in contact with the breathable pad 14.

[0059] Understandably, during use, the device 1 may generate heat, and users may experience discomfort due to sweating. The breathable pad 14 is designed to provide effective back support while also dissipating heat. Specifically, the breathable pad 14 can be rotated by turning the screws 12 on both sides of the back plate 8, which will push the breathable pad 14 to rotate at a certain angle. This increases the airflow area between the breathable pad 14 and the back plate 8, thereby effectively improving heat dissipation. It can also be adjusted according to wearing comfort, allowing the breathable pad 14 to fit comfortably against the user's back, thus improving the comfort of wearing the mobile device.

[0060] Multiple ventilation grooves 13 are evenly provided on the side of the back panel 8 near the ventilation pad 14, and the ventilation grooves 13 extend horizontally through the back panel 8.

[0061] It should be noted that by setting multiple ventilation slots 13, the heat generated during equipment operation can be isolated from the human body, avoiding the impact of temperature conduction on the operator's comfort. At the same time, the internal space of the ventilation slots 13 forms an air circulation channel between the ventilation pad 14 and the back plate 8, which can help the equipment dissipate heat and extend the service life of the equipment in high-temperature environments.

[0062] Both ends of the shoulder strap 17 and waist belt 18 are provided with buckles 19. The back plate 8 is fixedly provided with retaining rings 16 for connecting with the buckles 19. Specifically, the retaining rings 16 are respectively provided on the top two sides of the back plate 8 and on both sides of the back plate 8 near the bottom. The waist belt 18 is provided with a protective pad 20 in the middle, and the protective pad 20 is movably sleeved on the surface of the waist belt 18.

[0063] Specifically, an antenna 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the body 1; handles 15 are fixedly connected to both sides of the top of the body 1.

[0064] It should be noted that the user wears the device through the shoulder strap 17, while the waist belt 18 provides further support to relieve shoulder pressure. The protective pad 20 fits snugly against the abdomen to improve comfort during wear. When using the device 1 alone, the buckles 19 on the waist belt 18 and shoulder strap 17 can be connected to the handle 15 on the top of the device 1. In this case, the device 1 is worn like a shoulder bag on the side of the waist, allowing for operation according to user comfort, making it more flexible and convenient to use.

[0065] The above-described embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and are not intended to limit them. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application.
