Abstract

An intelligent street light structure includes an antenna, a data transmission system and wires. This makes the intelligent street light structure have a remote data transmission function and also effectively protect the antenna and the data transmission system provided therein again external invasion.

Claims

1. An intelligent street light structure including at least one antenna, a data transmission system and wires for interconnecting the antenna and the data transmission system, the intelligent street light structure further including:

a hollow lamppost having a receiving space therein for accommodating the data transmission system;

a cap provided at top of the hollow lamppost, the cap having an antenna mounting pole and at least one through hole, wherein the antenna mounting pole is for mounting the antenna thereon, and the through hole allows the wires to pass therethrough;

a non-metallic shield mounted on the cap, for protecting and shielding the cap; and

at least one binding part for binding at least one of the non-metallic shield and the cap to the hollow lamppost.

2. The intelligent street light structure according to claim 1, further including:

at least one external device, and a light armature holder/fixture that is provided on the hollow lamppost and for mounting the external device, wherein the wires are for interconnecting the antenna, the data transmission system and the external device.

3. The intelligent street light structure according to claim 2, wherein the external device is one of an IP device and a sensor.

4. The intelligent street light structure according to claim 1, wherein in the receiving space there are formed a carrier structure and a liquid guiding structure, wherein the carrier structure is for carrying the data transmission system thereon, and the liquid guiding structure is located above the carrier structure, for guiding any liquid inside the receiving space to flow away from the data transmission system.

5. The intelligent street light structure according to claim 1, wherein the hollow lamppost further has an operation hole and a cover plate for opening or closing the operation hole to expose or cover the receiving space.

6. The intelligent street light structure according to claim 5, further including:

a wireless control opening/closing lock which can control the opening and closing of the cover plate by wireless communication, open and close the operating hole.

7. The intelligent street light structure according to claim 5, wherein the hollow lamppost or the cover plate has at least one vent for dissipating heat or moisture from the receiving space.

8. The intelligent street light structure according to claim 1, wherein the receiving space is located in a base of the hollow lamppost.

9. The intelligent street light structure according to claim 1, further including:

a pumping device, which is activated to discharge any liquid in the hollow lamppost when the liquid is over a predetermined warning level, wherein the predetermined warning level is lower than a height of a position where the data transmission system is situated.

10. The intelligent street light structure according to claim 1, further including:

a wiring part provided in the cap or the hollow lamppost, which is extended from the cap into the hollow lamppost or is directly placed inside the hollow lamppost, wherein the wiring part is for guiding the wires to be extended inside the hollow lamppost in a predetermined direction, path, position or curvature.

11. The intelligent street light structure according to claim 10, wherein the wiring part is a hooking part, a wire material part, a wireway part or a tubing part.

12. The intelligent street light structure according to claim 1, further including:

a lightning rod provided at top of the non-metallic shield.

13. The intelligent street light structure according to claim 1, wherein the data transmission system includes a data transmission device, a data exchange device and a plurality of network devices, which are interconnected, wherein the data transmission device allows data transmission between itself and the outside, and the data exchange device is respectively connected to the data transmission device and the plurality of network devices, for providing service of data exchange and transmission between the plurality of network devices and the data transmission device.

14. The intelligent street light structure according to claim 13, wherein the data transmission system further includes a power distribution unit electrically connected to a power system, a UPS power supply device or both, for providing electricity required for operation.

15. The intelligent street light structure according to claim 1, wherein the wires are electric cables, optical cables, or a combination thereof.

16. The intelligent street light structure according to claim 1, wherein the cap is formed with two through holes, which are arc-shaped and provided on two sides of the antenna mounting pole.

17. The intelligent street light structure according to claim 1, wherein the binding part is a lock part that in turn penetrates the non-metallic shield, the cap and the hollow lamppost.

18. The intelligent street light structure according to claim 1, wherein the binding part is a fastening part for fastening the non-metallic shield to the cap and the hollow lamppost.
