Abstract:
1. An anti-blinding welding helmet having a wireless communication function, comprising: a light detecting device to measure the luminance of light based on a signal input from a photo sensor, in order to protect the welder's eyes from light generated from a welding or cutting torch; a control switch to input a user command; a main control device to set a reference value required to control the detection sensitivity of the light detecting device in response to the user command input from the control switch and also, to set a light transmittance and operation delay time of an anti-blinding plate, the main control device determining generation of welding light if the luminance of light detected by the light detecting device is a preset reference value or more and thus operating a light transmission control device; a light transmission control device to operate the anti-blinding plate according to the light transmittance set by the main control device so as to allow the anti-blinding plate to maintain a constant light transmittance value, a first receiving/transmitting unit to receive and convert an incoming call signal of a cellular phone and a user voice signal into a wireless signal and transmit the wireless signal to a second receiving/transmitting unit and also, to convert a wireless signal transmitted from the second receiving/transmitting unit into a digital signal and transmit the digital signal to the cellular phone to enable implementation of a voice call; the second receiving/transmitting unit to convert a wireless signal transmitted from the first receiving/transmitting unit into a digital signal and transmit the digital signal to the main control device and also, to convert a digital signal transmitted from the main control device into a wireless signal and transmit the wireless signal to the first receiving/transmitting unit; a voice output device to output a digital voice signal transmitted from the main control device so as to output a voice command that is previously input by a user; and a voice input device to input and transmit a user voice command to the main control device, wherein the main control device analyzes the digital signal transmitted from the second receiving/transmitting unit, and if it is determined that the digital signal is the incoming call signal, turns on a lamp provided inside the anti-blinding welding helmet and simultaneously, outputs a ringtone through the voice output device and also, transmits the digital voice signal, transmitted from the second receiving/transmitting unit, to the voice output device, wherein the main control device transmits the digital voice signal, converted from the user voice signal input through the voice input device, to the second receiving/transmitting unit to enable implementation of a voice call, wherein the voice output device includes: a voice information database to store the digital voice signal transmitted from the main control device and a voice command signal input by a user; an amplifier to amplify the digital voice signal or the ringtone transmitted from the main control device or the voice command signal output from the voice information database; and a speaker to output voice amplified by the amplifier to the outside so as to allow the user to hear the voice, and wherein the voice input device includes: a microphone to receive user voice, the microphone disposed in a position corresponding to the mouth of a user of the welding helmet; a filter to filter the voice input through the microphone; and a digital voice input signal processor to convert an analogue voice signal, input through the filter, into a digital signal.
