In addition, as the battery power supply voltage is reduced, the system power consumption requirement cannot be met, the battery power utilization rate is low, and as the development and popularization of the Internet of things technology are carried out, a wireless transmission module is required to be added into the fire hydrant instrument to realize data networking, so that the battery replacement frequency is further increased, and the application of the built-in battery in the fire hydrant instrument and other equipment in a safe power supply mode is further limited.

it is another object of the present invention to provide a power management method suitable for use with the above-described hydrant gauge.
In order to achieve the main purpose, the fire hydrant instrument with the built-in display screen comprises a sealed shell, and a display screen and a power management system which are arranged in the sealed shell; the display screen is arranged in the sealing shell, and the sealing shell comprises a transparent shell part for perspective display of the display screen; the power management system comprises a battery connecting terminal, a magnetic reed switch and a control unit for controlling the display screen to work for a preset time period to display contents when the on-off state of the magnetic reed switch changes.
The display screen and the trigger switch for controlling the operation of the display screen are arranged in the shell, so that the use safety of the fire hydrant is effectively ensured; when the display is needed, the magnetic field of the position of the magnetic reed switch is changed through the magnet such as the permanent magnet, so that the display screen is started to display for a preset time, the power consumption when the display is not needed can be avoided, the total power consumption of the display screen in the service cycle of the battery is effectively reduced, and the service life of the battery is prolonged.
The sealing shell comprises a shell body with at least one open end and a cylindrical shape and a sealing end cover matched with the open end, wherein at least one sealing end cover is made of transparent materials, and the transparent shell part is arranged on one sealing end cover made of transparent materials. The manufacture of the seal housing is facilitated and the planar portion of the end cap can be readily displayed in a clear manner. Of course, the case body may be provided to be made of a transparent material.
The more specific scheme is that a permanent magnet for triggering the magnetic reed switch is hung outside the sealing shell through a hanging wire. The operator can conveniently check the display content.
The preferred scheme is that the fire hydrant instrument is provided with a wireless transmission unit and a data acquisition unit, and the power management system further comprises a super capacitor, a boosting unit, a first voltage reduction unit and a second voltage reduction unit; the boosting unit is controlled by the control unit to boost the output voltage of the battery electrically connected to the battery connecting terminal to be higher than the first voltage when the wireless transmission unit is required to be started, so as to precharge the super capacitor, and boost the output voltage of the battery to be higher than the second voltage when the output voltage of the super capacitor is lower than a voltage threshold value, so as to supplement the super capacitor; the first step-down unit is controlled by the control unit to connect the voltage which is boosted to be higher than the first voltage by the step-up unit with the output voltage of the pre-charged super capacitor in parallel, and then step down the voltage to the adaptive wireless transmission unit and supply the voltage to the wireless transmission unit for working; the second voltage reduction unit is used for reducing the output voltage of the super capacitor to at least the adaptive control unit, the display screen and the data acquisition unit and supplying the output voltage to the adaptive control unit, the display screen and the data acquisition unit for working.
In the working process, as the boosting unit is arranged between the power supply battery and the power consumption unit, the output voltage of the power supply battery can be boosted to be larger than the working voltage of each load, so that the power can be still supplied to the load when the output voltage of the battery is lower than the working voltage of the load, and the electric energy utilization rate of the power supply battery is effectively improved; when the wireless transmission unit needs to be started and data transmission is carried out, the super capacitor is precharged firstly, the output voltages of the precharged super capacitor and the boosting unit are combined through the first voltage reduction unit, the output voltages of the precharged super capacitor and the boosting unit are connected in parallel and then reduced to the working voltage of the wireless transmission unit, so that the characteristic that the super capacitor can provide large transient current is utilized to provide the large transient current required during starting for the wireless transmission unit, the front-end voltage cannot be pulled too low, the boosting unit continuously provides large current for the normal operation of the wireless transmission unit after the wireless transmission unit normally works, and the super capacitor can be simultaneously supplemented and charged based on the fact that the two ends of the super capacitor are still connected with the output end of the boosting unit in parallel; in the whole process, the super capacitor is used for supplying power to other loads such as the control unit, the display screen and the data collection unit, so that the voltage boosting unit and the first voltage reducing unit are in a dormant state or a stop state in other time except when the output voltage of the super capacitor is lower than a voltage threshold value or when the wireless transmission unit is required to be started, and the overall power consumption is effectively reduced.
The specific scheme is that an anti-reverse connection unit for preventing reverse connection of the battery is coupled between the battery connecting terminal and the boost unit so as to prevent damage to a subsequent circuit when the battery is reversely connected; the anti-reverse connection unit comprises two P-channel field effect transistors with drain electrodes connected, wherein one source electrode is electrically connected with the battery connection terminal, the other source electrode is electrically connected with the boosting unit, and the two grid electrodes are grounded through a bias resistor after being connected. By arranging the anti-reverse connection circuit to be composed of two field effect transistors connected in series to replace a diode in the prior art, the voltage drop on the anti-reverse connection unit can be effectively reduced.

The on-off control switch controls the voltage division reference network and the boosting unit to synchronously turn on and off based on the boosting control signal, so that when the boosting unit does not work, the voltage division reference network is disconnected to reduce unnecessary consumption of electric energy on the super capacitor, and further power consumption of equipment is reduced. The freewheeling diode is connected at two ends of the boosting unit, so that when the voltage in the super capacitor is low due to the fact that the battery is not replaced in time for the first time, the power supply voltage of the battery directly passes through the freewheeling diode to start and charge the super capacitor, the output voltage of the super capacitor is charged to be higher than the working voltage of the control unit, and the control unit can be supplied with power to work so as to control loads such as the boosting unit and the like to work; and when the output voltage of the super capacitor is higher than the power supply voltage of the power supply battery, the flywheel diode is cut off to reduce the power consumption.
Another preferable scheme is that the power management system comprises a battery voltage monitoring unit and a battery replacement reminding unit; the battery voltage monitoring unit outputs a monitoring signal to the control unit, and the control unit outputs a control signal for reminding the replacement to the battery replacement reminding unit when the monitoring signal shows that the battery voltage is lower than a threshold value. The battery can be reminded to replace the battery when the battery power can not be continuously supplied for more than a preset time, so that the maintenance in the use process is convenient, and the normal use is ensured.
In order to achieve the above another object, the present invention provides a power management method comprising: judging whether the magnetic field change amplitude at the monitored position is larger than a threshold value or not; if the power is larger than the preset power, the display screen arranged in the sealed shell is powered for a preset time period, and the display content is displayed. The display screen in the sealed shell is controlled to work for a preset time in a non-contact mode, so that the use safety can be ensured, the power consumption caused by the fact that the display screen works in unexpected time is reduced, and the power consumption is effectively reduced.
The specific scheme is that the output voltage of the super capacitor is reduced to be matched with at least one load and is supplied to the at least one load for working; when a large starting current load needs to be started, the power supply voltage is boosted to be higher than the first voltage to precharge the super capacitor, the boosted voltage is connected with the output voltage of the precharged super capacitor in parallel, and then the voltage is reduced to be matched with the large starting current load and supplied to the large starting current load for working.
For large starting current loads such as a wireless transmission module and an inductive load, the transient current of the wireless transmission module and the inductive load is larger than the current of the wireless transmission module during normal operation, so that the front-end voltage of the wireless transmission module and the inductive load is easily pulled down during starting to influence the stability of the whole system; in the power management method, when a large starting current load needs to start to work, the super capacitor is pre-charged, the output voltage of the super capacitor is connected with the boost voltage in parallel and then is reduced to the working voltage of the large starting current load, so that the characteristic that the super capacitor can provide large transient current is utilized to provide the large transient current required by the large starting current load during starting, the front-end voltage cannot be pulled too low, and after the large starting current load works normally, the boost voltage is utilized to supplement and charge the super capacitor; in addition, the power supply voltage is boosted to be greater than the working voltage of each power consumption unit, so that power can still be supplied when the power supply voltage of a power supply such as a battery is lower than the working voltage of the power supply such as the battery, the utilization rate of the power energy of the power supply such as the battery is effectively improved, and in the whole working process, the boosting work is not needed when the output voltage of the super capacitor is lower than a voltage threshold value or in other time except when a large starting current load needs to be started, and the use power consumption is effectively reduced.
The specific scheme is that when the output voltage of the super capacitor is lower than a voltage threshold value, the power supply voltage is boosted to be higher than the second voltage so as to carry out supplementary charging on the super capacitor.
