Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle monitoring technology, and in particular to a vehicle traffic status monitoring system with multi-mode alarm. Background Technology

[0002] In scenarios such as highway transportation, logistics parks, construction sites, and various checkpoints, real-time and accurate monitoring and warning of the dimensions of passing vehicles is a crucial link in ensuring road traffic safety and preventing damage to facilities (such as bridges, tunnels, and gantry cranes) from collisions with oversized or overweight vehicles. Currently, there are various vehicle dimension detection technologies on the market, such as laser scanning, ultrasonic ranging, or the use of through-beam photoelectric sensor arrays, which can measure the width and height of vehicles with relatively high precision.

[0003] However, existing monitoring systems still have significant shortcomings in their alarm and notification methods in practical applications. Many systems only use simple audible and visual alarms, such as a single buzzer combined with a warning light. This approach provides extremely limited alarm information, and on-site drivers and managers often cannot immediately and intuitively identify whether a vehicle is "exceeding height," "exceeding width," or both, leading to an inability to take targeted action and delays in handling the situation. In addition, most systems lack real-time visualization and voice broadcast of the detection data, making it difficult for drivers inside the vehicle to clearly understand the precise data on their vehicle's exceedances and the specific type of violation.

[0004] In terms of system management and data traceability, traditional systems typically have fixed and unadjustable alarm durations, failing to adapt to the varying alarm duration requirements of different scenarios (such as busy intersections and quiet roads at night). More importantly, monitoring data is usually stored only on local devices, preventing managers from remotely and conveniently querying and statistically analyzing historical data, causing significant inconvenience to daily operations management, accident tracing, and data report compilation. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an intelligent vehicle traffic status monitoring system that can provide clear, intuitive, and multi-dimensional alarm information, and possesses flexible management and remote traceability capabilities.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new multi-mode alarm vehicle traffic status monitoring system to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a vehicle traffic status monitoring system with multi-mode alarm.

[0007] This utility model provides a multi-mode alarm vehicle traffic status monitoring system, comprising:

[0008] The detection module is used to detect the width and height dimensions of passing vehicles in real time.

[0009] The main controller, electrically connected to the detection module, is used to receive and process the dimensional data;

[0010] The multi-mode alarm module is electrically connected to the main controller, receives instructions from the main controller, and triggers corresponding alarm actions.

[0011] The multi-mode alarm module includes:

[0013] The voice alarm unit is used to broadcast preset voice prompts corresponding to the vehicle over-limit type based on the judgment result of the main controller.

[0014] The flashing warning light includes at least two light groups that can emit different colors of light, with different colors of light used to indicate different types of vehicle over-limit conditions;

[0015] The system also includes a remote data platform that is communicatively connected to the main controller, used to store vehicle traffic data and support data retrieval by date.

[0016] Preferably, the main controller has a pre-installed alarm duration adjustment module for setting or adjusting the alarm duration of the voice alarm unit and the flashing warning light.

[0017] Preferably, the alarm duration adjustment module sets the alarm duration of the voice alarm unit and the flashing warning light to the time required to play the voice prompts "Vehicle is too wide, please move away" or "Vehicle is too tall, please move away" twice, or sets it to seconds by default.

[0018] Preferably, the flashing warning light includes a red light group and a blue light group; wherein, the flashing red light group is used to indicate that the vehicle exceeds the height limit, and the flashing blue light group is used to indicate that the vehicle exceeds the width limit.

[0020] Preferably, the voice alarm unit broadcasts voice prompts including "Vehicle is too wide, please move away", "Vehicle is too high, please move away", "Vehicle is too wide or too high, please move away", and "Vehicle can pass".

[0021] Preferably, the remote data platform is a cloud server or a backend computer. Users access the remote data platform through a mobile terminal and select to retrieve vehicle traffic data for a specific date.

[0022] Preferably, the detection module includes a first lidar or a first through-beam photoelectric sensor for detecting the width of the vehicle, and a second lidar or a second through-beam photoelectric sensor for detecting the height of the vehicle.

[0023] Compared with related technologies, the multi-mode alarm vehicle traffic status monitoring system provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0024] This utility model provides a multi-mode alarm vehicle traffic status monitoring system. Through the coordinated operation of a display screen, specific-color flashing lights, and voice broadcasts, it constructs a three-dimensional alarm system combining visual and auditory elements. Drivers and managers can instantly understand precise data and text status on the screen, identify the type of over-limit behavior through different colored lights, and obtain clear instructions through voice, greatly improving the accuracy and efficiency of information transmission and effectively avoiding misjudgments and confusion. The built-in alarm duration adjustment module allows administrators to flexibly set the alarm duration according to actual environmental needs, enhancing the system's environmental adaptability and user-friendliness. Simultaneously, connection to a remote data platform enables cloud storage and remote date-based querying of vehicle traffic data, transforming management from traditional on-site monitoring to remote intelligent management anytime, anywhere. This greatly improves the convenience of data traceability, statistical analysis, and management decision-making. The entire system has a clear modular design, with well-defined detection, control, alarm, and data management functions, making it easy to deploy and maintain. By integrating mature and reliable industrial-grade hardware (such as LiDAR, PLC controllers, and LED screens), the system achieves the aforementioned intelligent functions while ensuring stability and practicality. Attached Figure Description

[0025] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the multi-mode alarm vehicle traffic status monitoring system provided by this utility model.

[0026] The diagram shows the following components: 1. Detection module; 2. Main controller; 3. Multi-mode alarm module; 4. Display screen; 5. Voice alarm unit; 6. Flashing warning light; 7. Remote data platform. Detailed Implementation

[0027] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0028] In the specific implementation process, such as Figure 1 As shown, a vehicle traffic status monitoring system with multi-mode alarm includes a detection module 1, a main controller 2, a multi-mode alarm module 3, and a remote data platform 7.

[0029] The detection module 1 is used to detect the width and height dimensions of passing vehicles in real time. The detection module 1 includes a first lidar for detecting the width of the vehicle and a second lidar for detecting the height of the vehicle. The first lidar is horizontally mounted above or to the side of the road where the vehicle travels, and obtains the width profile data of the vehicle by scanning. The second lidar is vertically mounted on one side of the road gantry, and obtains the height profile data of the vehicle by scanning. The detection module 1 can also be implemented using through-beam photoelectric sensors. For example, multiple pairs of horizontal through-beam photoelectric sensors are arranged on both sides of the road to detect the width, and a pair of vertical through-beam photoelectric sensors are arranged above the gantry to detect the height.

[0030] The main controller 2 can be an industrial PLC or an embedded microprocessor, and is electrically connected to the detection module 1. The main controller 2 has pre-stored the road width and height limit thresholds. The main controller 2 receives the real-time size data from the detection module 1 and compares it with the preset thresholds to determine whether the vehicle status belongs to "passable", "excessive width", "excessive height" or "excessive width and height".

[0031] The multi-mode alarm module 3 is electrically connected to the main controller 2, receives instructions from the main controller 2, and triggers corresponding alarm actions. The multi-mode alarm module 3 includes:

[0032] Display screen 4: In this embodiment, a high-brightness LED display screen is used, which is installed in a conspicuous position on the gantry and faces the direction of oncoming traffic. When a vehicle passes by, the display screen 4 dynamically displays the real-time width data (e.g., "3.2m") and height data (e.g., "4.5m") of the vehicle. At the same time, under the control of the main controller 2, the status prompt text corresponding to the size data is displayed synchronously. For example, if the vehicle does not exceed the limit, it displays "Width normal, height normal"; if only the width exceeds the limit, it displays "Width exceeds the limit, height normal".

[0033] Voice alarm unit 5: In this embodiment, it includes a power amplifier and an outdoor waterproof speaker column. Based on the judgment result of the main controller 2, it broadcasts preset voice prompt information. For example, when the main controller 2 determines that the vehicle is too tall, the voice alarm unit 5 will broadcast "Vehicle is too tall, please leave"; when it determines that the vehicle can pass, it will broadcast "Vehicle can pass". The voice content is stored in the memory chip of the main controller 2 or the voice alarm unit 5.

[0034] 6. Strobe warning light: This embodiment includes a red light group and a blue light group, which are made of high-brightness LED beads and have a strobe function. The red light group flashes specifically to indicate that the vehicle is too tall, and the blue light group flashes specifically to indicate that the vehicle is too wide. If the vehicle is too wide and too tall at the same time, the red and blue light groups will flash simultaneously to provide a strong visual warning.

[0035] The main controller 2 has a pre-installed alarm duration adjustment module (which can be a software function module). The system administrator can set or adjust the alarm duration of the voice alarm unit 5 and the flashing warning light 6 through the setting interface on the main controller 2 or the connected configuration tool. In a default implementation, the alarm duration is set to the time required to play two complete alarm voice messages (such as "The vehicle is too wide, please leave"), which is calculated to be about 7 seconds. After 7 seconds, the alarm will automatically stop and the system will reset to detect the next vehicle.

[0036] The system also includes a remote data platform 7 that is communicatively connected to the main controller 2. In this embodiment, the remote data platform 7 is a cloud server. The main controller 2 packages and uploads the detection time, size data, judgment results and alarm records of each passing vehicle to the cloud server for storage via 4G / 5G or wired network. Users (such as managers) can access the cloud server through a dedicated APP or web browser on their mobile terminals and select to retrieve all vehicle passage data for a specific date, which is convenient for data traceability, statistics and analysis.

[0037] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0038] After the vehicle enters the detection area, detection module 1 immediately activates, acquiring the vehicle's width and height data and uploading it to main controller 2. Main controller 2 compares the real-time data with thresholds and makes a judgment. Subsequently, main controller 2 sends a coordination command to multi-mode alarm module 3.

[0039] If the vehicle is too wide: Display screen 4 shows "Width Exceeds Limit" and specific data, voice alarm unit 5 announces "Vehicle is too wide, please leave", the blue light group of the flashing warning light 6 flashes, and the alarm lasts for a preset 7 seconds.

[0040] If the vehicle exceeds the height limit: Display screen 4 shows "Height Exceeds Limit" and specific data, voice alarm unit 5 announces "Vehicle exceeds height limit, please leave", the red light group of the flashing warning light 6 flashes, and the alarm lasts for a preset 7 seconds.

[0041] If the vehicle can pass: Display screen 4 shows "Width normal, height normal" and specific data, voice alarm unit 5 announces "Vehicle can pass", and flashing warning lights 6 do not work.

[0042] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
