Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of navigation light technology, and in particular to a navigation light with a warning function. Background Technology
[0002] Navigation lights, a type of aviation obstruction light, are traffic lights installed on certain navigational aids to ensure the safe navigation of ships at night. Their function is to emit identifiable signals at sea, day and night, to help ships determine their position and provide hazard warnings.
[0003] A search revealed a patent with publication number GN218209462U, which discloses a navigation light with a warning function, including a supporting base plate. While the navigation light in this patent can provide warnings and location information after being damaged in a collision, some of its components are installed around the light fixture, making it susceptible to malfunction after direct impact from ships or prolonged exposure to wind and sun, rendering it unable to function. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a navigation light with a warning function.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A navigation light with a warning function includes a housing. Multiple buoyancy blocks are adhered to the top of the outer circumference of the housing. A top cover is sealed and snapped onto the top of the housing. An inner housing is fixedly connected to the bottom of the top cover. A gap is left between the inner housing and the housing. A first battery and a wireless communicator are provided on the bottom inner wall of the inner housing. A first conductive rod and a second conductive rod are inserted into the bottom of the inner housing. A bracket is fixedly connected to the top of the top cover. A light is fixedly connected to the bottom of the bracket.
[0007] Furthermore, a counterweight is provided on the bottom outer wall of the outer casing.
[0008] Furthermore, two retaining rings are fixedly connected to the bottom outer wall of the outer casing.
[0009] Furthermore, an installation plate is fixedly connected inside the inner shell, and a GPS locator, a second battery, and a data acquisition device are fixedly connected to the top of the installation plate.
[0010] Furthermore, the second battery is electrically connected to the GPS locator and the data acquisition unit.
[0011] Furthermore, the first battery is electrically connected to the wireless communicator.
[0012] Furthermore, the wireless communicator is electrically connected to the second conductive rod, and the first battery is electrically connected to the first conductive rod.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] 1. By setting up buoyancy blocks, when the navigation light is hit by a collision, the external impact will hit the buoyancy blocks first, thus protecting the navigation light. The double-layer design of the outer shell and inner shell can also better protect the navigation light.
[0015] 2. Water enters the gap between the outer and inner shells, and the conductivity of water connects the first and second conductive rods, thereby enabling a wireless communication system to issue an early warning.
[0016] 3. The buoyancy of the buoyant blocks causes the navigation light to float on the water surface, thus enabling the ship to determine its position by emitting light. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0022] Reference Figs. 1-3A navigation light with a warning function includes an outer shell 1. Multiple buoyancy blocks 4 are adhered to the top of the outer circumference of the outer shell 1. A top cover 5 is sealed and snapped onto the top of the outer shell 1. An inner shell 6 is fixed to the bottom of the top cover 5 by bolts. A gap is left between the inner shell 6 and the outer shell 1. A first battery 7 and a wireless communicator 8 are provided on the bottom inner wall of the inner shell 6. A first conductive rod 9 and a second conductive rod 10 are inserted into the bottom of the inner shell 6. Water enters the gap between the outer shell 1 and the inner shell 6, and the conductivity of the water connects the first conductive rod 9 and the second conductive rod 10, thereby providing a warning through the wireless communicator 8. A bracket 16 is fixed to the top of the top cover 5 by bolts. A light lamp 15 is fixed to the bottom of the bracket 16 by bolts. The buoyancy of the buoyancy blocks 4 makes the navigation light float on the water surface, thereby providing the light lamp 15 for ships to determine their position.
[0023] The bottom outer wall of the outer shell 1 is equipped with a counterweight 2, which ensures that the outer shell 1 always floats vertically. The bottom outer wall of the outer shell 1 has two fixed rings 3 integrally formed. The chain is bolted to the fixed rings 3 to position the navigation light. The inner shell 6 is fixed with a mounting plate 11 by bolts. The top of the mounting plate 11 is fixed with a GPS locator 12, a second battery 13 and a data collector 14 by bolts. The GPS locator 12 is used for positioning and the data collector 14 is used for data collection. The second battery 13 is electrically connected to the GPS locator 12 and the data collector 14. The first battery 7 is electrically connected to the wireless communicator 8. The wireless communicator 8 is electrically connected to the second conductive rod 10. The first battery 7 is electrically connected to the first conductive rod 9.
[0024] Working principle: When in use, first, the chain is attached to the fixed ring 3 to position the navigation light. Then, the buoyancy of the buoyancy block 4 is used to make the navigation light float on the water surface, so that the light lamp 15 can be used to help the ship determine its position.
[0025] When the navigation light is damaged, water enters the gap between the outer shell 1 and the inner shell 6. The conductivity of water connects the first conductive rod 9 and the second conductive rod 10, thereby issuing an early warning through the wireless communicator 8 and locating the target via the GPS locator 12.
[0026] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
