Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of embedded system technology, and in particular, to the field of wind speed and direction testing technology; specifically, it relates to a wind speed and direction testing device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, wind speed and direction testing equipment on the global market can only measure a single parameter, wind speed or wind direction, and lacks a linkage measurement interface with other meteorological elements (such as temperature), making it difficult to meet the needs of complex environmental monitoring. Some equipment that uses 4G communication or high-frequency sampling has not optimized power management, and its power consumption can reach tens of milliamps. It has defects such as limited functionality, high power consumption, and large size, resulting in a poor user experience.

[0003] With the rapid development of the Internet of Things (IoT), it has been widely used in many fields. The IoT connects various devices or objects in the workplace with sensors, processors, actuators, etc., and realizes data interaction and intelligent control through the Internet.

[0004] When applying the Internet of Things to the field of wind speed and direction detection, wind speed and direction testing equipment not only needs to be multifunctional and miniaturized, but also needs to have terminal (such as mobile phone) control and intelligent control functions.

[0005] However, existing wind speed and direction testing equipment cannot meet the needs of IoT application scenarios. Utility Model Content

[0006] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to design a wind speed and direction testing device that integrates the main control chip and sensor system, adopts an Internet of Things (IoT) architecture for interconnection, meets the detection needs in wind speed and direction detection scenarios, realizes real-time detection of environmental wind speed and direction through IoT control, improves detection efficiency, and can be applied to various complex terrain scenarios such as wind speed and direction detection and judgment; moreover, it is simple and quick to operate, improving the user experience.

[0007] This utility model provides a wind speed and direction testing device, including: a sensor system installed in the machine or scene to be tested, a main control chip for identifying the working status of the machine to be tested, the sensor system being signal-connected to the main control chip, the main control chip being connected via Bluetooth to a host computer for controlling the working status of the machine to be tested, and the host computer being connected to a user terminal for real-time monitoring of wind speed and direction. Preferably, the main control chip is a Nordic52832 chip or a Nordic52820 chip. The main control chip can accurately identify various operating states of the machine, such as wind direction and speed, angle and position, and battery level. It can also dynamically adjust the operating parameters of the machine based on the comprehensive data parameters from various sensors to meet the monitoring needs of complex environments.

[0008] The sensor system transmits the collected data to the main control chip for data processing, calculates the real-time wind speed and direction information, and the main control chip transmits the wind speed and direction information to the host computer. The host computer connects to the network and transmits the wind speed and direction information to the user terminal (such as a mobile phone), thereby realizing real-time detection of wind speed and direction in a designated area.

[0009] Furthermore, the main control chip integrates a Bluetooth communication module, which is wirelessly connected to the host computer, and the host computer connects to the user terminal via the Internet.

[0010] The main control chip can perform both microprocessor (MCU) and Bluetooth functions, making it a multi-functional chip. It can transmit data in real time via Bluetooth broadcast, while reducing power consumption, extending service life, and reducing device size.

[0011] Information data is broadcast to a host computer near the wind speed and direction testing equipment via Bluetooth communication module. In practical applications, Bluetooth broadcasting involves the following key steps: First, enable Bluetooth on your device. Then, set the broadcast transmission parameters, such as broadcast interval, transmit power (txPower), and connectability.

[0012] Next, broadcast data is constructed, including information such as the service UUID, device name, and manufacturer data. This data will be included in the broadcast packet and sent out so that other devices can identify and discover the device.

[0013] The host computer and user terminal communicate via the internet, breaking geographical limitations and allowing mobile devices such as smartphones to receive data anytime, anywhere, thus improving operational convenience. When the wind speed reaches 10.8 m / s for an extended period, the wind speed and direction testing equipment can also be paired with the host computer to implement an alarm function, sending data to the user terminal for viewing via Bluetooth communication module.

[0014] Furthermore, the sensor system includes a Hall sensor for measuring magnet displacement, an accelerometer for measuring vibration frequency and amplitude, and a geomagnetic sensor for detecting the Earth's magnetic field. The Hall sensor, accelerometer, and geomagnetic sensor are connected to the main control chip via an I2C bus.

[0015] Hall effect sensors can measure the spatial position or displacement of an object without contact with it.

[0016] Accelerometers measure the acceleration of an object's motion. Frequency and amplitude information can be extracted from the output signal of the accelerometer, enabling the measurement of the frequency and amplitude of vibrations.

[0017] Geomagnetic sensors detect changes in the Earth's magnetic field. By sensing changes in the strength and direction of the magnetic field, they can detect the presence, movement, and identification of ferromagnetic objects. When a ferromagnetic object passes by, it affects the surrounding magnetic field, and the geomagnetic sensor determines the presence and movement of the ferromagnetic object by detecting this change.

[0018] Data collected by Hall effect sensors, accelerometers, and geomagnetic sensors is transmitted to the main control chip via an I2C bus for processing, calculating real-time wind speed and direction information. The integration of high-linearity and high-precision Hall effect sensors, accelerometers, and geomagnetic sensors via the I2C protocol improves the performance stability and reliability of the testing equipment.

[0019] Furthermore, a high-elasticity stainless steel wire is fixedly disposed above the Hall sensor, and a plastic ball containing a disc magnet is fixedly connected to the upper end of the high-elasticity stainless steel wire. The plastic ball containing the disc magnet is separated from the Hall sensor by a predetermined distance.

[0020] A Hall sensor is a sensor that detects magnetic fields. It can detect the presence and changes of magnetic fields. The Hall sensor collects the spatial position data of the (X,Y,Z) coordinates of a plastic ball containing a disc magnet and transmits the data to the main control chip (Nordic52832) for data processing.

[0021] The stainless steel wire avoids interference with the magnetic field of the plastic ball containing the disc magnet, ensuring the accuracy of the Hall sensor's data acquisition.

[0022] Furthermore, the Bluetooth communication module uses a low-power Bluetooth chip, which includes a BLE antenna, and the BLE antenna is wirelessly connected to the host computer.

[0023] Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) is primarily used for transmitting small data packets, suitable for periodic or event-driven data transmission, such as sensor data (acceleration, temperature, etc.). The wind speed and direction testing equipment can be put into sleep mode by remotely controlling the Bluetooth Low Energy connection via a host computer.

[0024] Furthermore, the wind speed and direction testing equipment includes a power system, which is electrically connected to the sensor system and the main control chip, and the power system includes a battery.

[0025] Based on the technical objectives of small size, low power consumption, and large battery capacity, this wind speed and direction testing equipment preferably uses battery power to power the entire device. The main control chip reads wind speed and direction information in the environment in real time via I2C communication. Optimized power management, with corresponding current consumption configured in working mode and low power mode, can better extend the product's usage time and provide a good user experience.

[0026] Preferably, the user terminal can also connect to the Bluetooth communication module of the wind speed and direction testing equipment via Bluetooth pairing to read updates of wind speed and direction information and achieve real-time monitoring.

[0027] In one embodiment of this utility model, the wind speed and direction testing device is powered by a single battery with a rated voltage of 4.5V. The current consumption is 3.6mA in the working mode of collecting wind force and wind speed data and 200uA in the low power consumption mode.

[0028] Based on the ultra-low power consumption and sleep function of this wind speed and direction testing equipment, the integrity and efficiency of battery use can be improved to a greater extent.

[0029] Furthermore, the wind speed and direction testing equipment includes a toggle switch that is normally open during operation, and the toggle switch is electrically connected to the battery.

[0030] A toggle switch connects or disconnects the power supply circuit by moving the switch handle, thereby achieving the purpose of switching the power supply circuit on or off. Toggle switches are characterized by flexible slider movement, stable and reliable performance, and offer advantages such as high operability, simplicity, and speed of implementation. Furthermore, the wind speed and direction testing device includes a configuration button for turning the control signal on and off, and the configuration button is electrically connected to the main control chip.

[0031] The configuration button controls the circuit by closing or opening contacts, enabling the on / off control of corresponding control signals, such as switching the working state of the equipment.

[0032] Furthermore, the sensor system also includes one or a combination of two of the following: a temperature sensor and a voltage detection circuit.

[0033] This wind speed and direction testing equipment can also be applied to various specific scenarios, such as forests, beaches, deserts, and farmlands. With its high sensitivity, temperature sensor, and voltage detection circuit, it can collect temperature information in specific scenarios, enabling rapid response and information reporting, and ensuring user safety in specific scenarios.

[0034] Furthermore, the wind speed and direction testing equipment also includes fixing screws for mounting the wind speed and direction testing equipment, and the fixing screws are detachably connected to the machine or scene to be tested.

[0035] As a specialized testing device, this wind speed and direction testing equipment only requires one or a few screws to fix the device in the required position, making installation particularly convenient.

[0036] This invention enables real-time detection of environmental wind speed and direction through IoT control. It is suitable for testing scenarios such as wind speed and direction detection in complex terrain, wind speed and direction judgment during shooting training, and upwind and downwind detection during hunting. Based on the excellent chip processing performance, communication speed and sampling accuracy, it improves testing efficiency and reliability. Furthermore, it can be adapted to user needs and is suitable for testing in most global work scenarios.

[0037] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: The wind speed and direction testing equipment provided by this utility model has a simple and reasonable architecture with strong overall integration.
