Structural walkway element for raft-cages that is curved and / or has trapezoidal geometric shape

The purpose of the invention is to provide a rigid walkway structure for raft-cages for the culture of marine species, the design of the structure allowing the formation of rigid rafts with a round, oval, circular or elliptical shape, among other shapes. The invention relates to at least one rigid walkway that is curved or has a trapezoidal geometric shape, for forming raft-cages with a circular, round, oval, elliptical or semicircular shape, among other geometric shapes, which comprises a base structure (2) formed by a structural frame comprising at least two curved lateral beams (5, 6) spaced parallel to each other and arranged longitudinally, along a longitudinal axis of the base structure (2), represented by arrow X in figure 1, wherein the curved lateral beams (5, 6) are concavely or convexly curved at a predetermined radius of curvature. The structural frame also comprises at least one curved central beam (7), which is concavely or convexly curved at a predetermined radius of curvature, wherein the curved lateral and central beams (5, 6, 7) are joined by their opposite ends (8, 8'), in a spaced manner, to transverse end beams (9, 10). The rigid walkways that are curved or have a trapezoidal geometric shape enable the formation of rigid floating structures with joints between articulated walkways, such as raft-cages for the culture of marine species, which structures have a circular, round, oval, elliptical or semicircular shape, among other geometric shapes, but not the square and rectangular shapes normally used in the technical field with this type of rigid walkway with articulated joints. The rigid walkways of the invention also improve the space of the confined culture volume, enhance the hydrodynamics of the raft-cage and make optimal use of the spaces granted under aquaculture concessions. The configuration of the raft-cages having rigid walkways that are curved or have a trapezoidal geometric shape of the present invention makes it possible to increase the size of the circular rafts normally used in the technical field, which are made of HDPE, since, given the strength of this type of rigid walkway and the articulated connection thereof, it is possible to form large circular, elliptical, oval, semicircular or round structures that ensure ease of operation and have adaptable forms but which are also very stable.

An electric bamboo raft

This invention provides an electric bamboo raft, comprising a floating assembly and a battery assembly. The floating assembly has a battery slot on its side. The battery assembly includes a battery cylinder containing a battery core. End release devices are connected to both ends of the battery cylinder, and a locking pin is slidably connected within each end release device. The end of the locking pin, away from the battery cylinder, extends beyond the end of the end release device. When the locking pin extends beyond the end of the end release device, the battery assembly is engaged in the battery slot, connecting it to the floating assembly. A temperature controller is installed between the battery cylinder and the battery core, and a pull rope connects the temperature controller to the end release device. When the temperature controller detects a fire in the battery core, it pulls the pull rope, causing the locking pin on the end release device to retract to the end of the end release device. In the event of a battery fire, the temperature controller controls the battery assembly to detach, preventing the fire from spreading further and endangering the lives and property of passengers on the bamboo raft.

Variable cross-section friction-electromagnetic composite power generation raft type buoy and method

PendingCN122126401ARaftsMachines/enginesBuoyBroadband
This invention discloses a variable cross-sectional area friction-electromagnetic composite power generation raft buoy and method, solving the problems of low power generation efficiency caused by the non-adjustable natural frequency and mismatch between the optimal operating frequencies of TENG and EMG in existing wave energy buoys. This invention dynamically adjusts the raft width through a symmetrically arranged variable cross-sectional area mechanism, enabling the natural pitch frequency to track common ocean wave frequencies of 0.5Hz-2Hz in real time, achieving broadband resonance energy capture. It innovatively designs a dual-path transmission module, simultaneously decomposing the same wave pitch motion into a low-frequency extension motion matching the TENG and a high-frequency linear motion matching the EMG, allowing both to operate within their peak efficiency range. Hydraulic transmission is used to transfer mechanical energy, and multiple buoys can be quickly hinged together to form an expandable power generation array. This invention improves wave energy capture efficiency by more than 3 times across all sea states and increases total power generation by more than 60%, making it suitable for self-powering distributed equipment such as ocean buoys, observation stations, and underwater sensors.
