Detachable User Operation Module for Front Infrared Thermal Imager
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional daylight scopes with added front infrared thermal imagers have increased length, making operation difficult, especially at night, and suffer from short battery life due to high power consumption, making them inconvenient for use and charging.
Innovation Solution
A detachable user operation module and remote control module that can be wirelessly or physically connected to the front infrared thermal imager, allowing for convenient detachment and reattachment, maintaining communication and enabling charging regardless of the module's attachment state.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a front infrared thermal imager is added to a daylight scope to enable night vision function, then the night vision capability is improved, but the overall length of the product increases and operation becomes difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The device is divided into separate functional modules: a front infrared thermal imager module and a user operation module. The user operation module can be detached from the front infrared module, allowing the user to operate the device from a distance or separately, thus solving the operation difficulty caused by the increased length of the integrated device.
2Adaptability or versatility
If a front infrared thermal imager is added to a daylight scope, then night vision function is achieved, but the power consumption increases and battery life decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The power supply system is segmented into a rechargeable battery module integrated with the user operation module and the main device. This allows for separate charging of the battery module, enabling extended usage time and convenient recharging without replacing the entire device, thus addressing the limited battery life issue.
3Adaptability or versatility
If a front infrared thermal imager is added to a daylight scope, then night vision capability is improved, but the product size increases and portability decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The device is segmented into detachable modules, with the user operation module being separable from the front infrared module. This modular design reduces the overall size when modules are separated, improving portability while maintaining full functionality when assembled, thus resolving the contradiction between enhanced capability and increased size.
4Ease of operation
If the user operation module is detachably mounted on the front infrared module, then operation convenience is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The user operation module is designed with multi-functionality, serving both as a control interface and as a power supply unit with integrated rechargeable battery. This universal design simplifies the overall device structure by combining multiple functions into a single detachable module, reducing the apparent complexity while improving operation convenience.

AI summary
A front infrared thermal imager includes a user operation module and a front infrared module, where the front infrared module is configured to be arranged at a front end of a daylight scope; and the user operation module is detachably mounted on the front infrared module. In both cases that the user operation module is mounted on and detached from the front infrared module, the user operation module is communicatively connected with the front infrared module, to enable the user operation module to transmit a received user operation instruction to the front infrared module. A detachable remote control module, a front infrared thermal imager and a dual optical scope are further provided.
