Abstract

The present invention relates to a voice alarm and a control apparatus for construction site. A voice alarm apparatus in accordance with one aspect of the present invention comprises a sensing unit for generating and transmitting a sensing signal to a processing unit upon detecting the presence of a man in a predetermined area; a wireless communication unit for receiving sound data or user'"'"'s voice from the outside; a storing unit for storing the sound data or the user'"'"'s voice from the wireless communication unit; a processing unit for transmitting the sound data or the user'"'"'s voice stored in the storing unit to an output unit in case of receiving the sensing signal from the sensing unit; and an output unit for outputting the sound by transforming the sound data.

Claims

1. A voice alarm apparatus for construction site comprising:

a sensing unit for generating and transmitting a sensing signal to a processing unit upon detecting the presence of a man in a predetermined area;

a wireless communication unit for receiving sound data or user'"'"'s voice from the outside;

a storing unit for storing the sound data or the user'"'"'s voice from the wireless communication unit;

a processing unit for transmitting the sound data or the user'"'"'s voice stored in the storing unit to an output unit in case of receiving the sensing signal from the sensing unit; and

an output unit for outputting the sound by transforming the sound data transmitted from the storing unit under control of the processing unit.

2. The voice alarm apparatus of claim 1, wherein the storing unit further stores an identifier for performing specific identification for the apparatus and the wireless communication unit receives the sound data or the user'"'"'s voice corresponding to the specific identification information selectively.

3. The voice alarm apparatus of claim 1, wherein the wireless communication unit performs communication under wireless LAN protocol or Bluetooth protocol.

4. A voice control apparatus for construction site comprising:

a cable or wireless communication unit for receiving or transmitting sound data from the outside corresponding to an identifier and the specific identification information for a voice alarm apparatus;

an input unit for performing input of user'"'"'s command or voice;

a storing unit for storing the sound data from the communication unit corresponding to the identifier and the specific identification information for the voice alarm apparatus, or the user'"'"'s voice inputted into the input unit;

a display unit for displaying the functional state of the apparatus visually; and

a processing unit for controlling storage of the sound data or the voice from the communication unit or the input unit respectively in the storing unit,

transmission of the sound data or the voice stored in the storing unit via the communication unit to the external voice alarm apparatus for construction site having corresponding identifier according to the user'"'"'s input, and display of the functional state of the apparatus.

5. The voice control apparatus of claim 4, wherein the input unit includes a controller capable of selecting the identifier for performing identifying by the user.

6. The voice control apparatus of claim 4, wherein the wireless communication unit performs communication under USB communication, wireless LAN protocol or Bluetooth protocol.
