Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a supporting device for a guide base cover plate of underwater equipment, which provides support and fixation for a base cover plate for long-term protection of underwater equipment. Background Art

[0002] The underwater equipment guide base is a support and protection device for underwater equipment. This device is a key device for the future development of underwater oil production, underwater communications and other fields.

[0003] Equipment such as underwater oil production and observation networks are located on the seabed and cannot be repaired and maintained on site. Therefore, underwater equipment has high requirements for safety and reliability, and protective devices for underwater equipment are necessary. At the same time, the underwater environment is complex, and it is necessary to face problems such as low visibility, inaccessibility, and ocean current impact. Therefore, reliable installation of protective devices is an important part of risk avoidance.

[0004] The normal operation of underwater equipment is inseparable from the support and protection of the guide base, and the base cover can protect the equipment from the threat of falling objects in the water. Due to the large size of the cover, a special design of the installation mechanism is required to ensure smooth installation and removal and reliable operation. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve the problem of installing the equipment base cover caused by environmental problems such as low underwater visibility, interference from ocean currents, and inaccessibility to personnel, the present invention provides a support device for the guide base cover of underwater equipment. The device can realize automatic fixing during the installation process and is stable and reliable after installation. The cover can be removed only when the force is evenly applied upward in the vertical direction. The cover can be ensured to be stable and reliable under various forces such as ocean currents, and no extra operations are required for removal. The installation and removal processes are simple, meeting the relevant requirements for the installation and removal of underwater devices.

[0006] The solution adopted by the present invention to solve the technical problem is: a rotating plate is designed on the cover support leg located on the base, and a turning buckle is designed on the fixed end of the cover. The center of gravity of the shape of the rotating plate and the turning buckle is designed to ensure that they remain in the initial position when the cover is not installed. During the installation process, the front end of the fixed end of the cover goes deep into the support leg and pushes the rotating plate, and the rotating plate pushes the turning buckle to rotate. When the rotating buckle is rotated into place, the rotating plate is clamped, thereby fixing the fixed end of the cover and the support leg together.

[0007] The turn buckle 3 is hinged on the cover plate fixed end 2, and the turn plate 2 is hinged on the base support leg 1; the base support leg 1 includes a body 1, a turn plate shaft 101, a cover plate fixed end support groove 102, and a base fixed end 103. The cover plate fixed end support groove 102 is located at one end of the body 1, and the base fixed end 103 is located at the other end of the body 1. The cover plate fixed end support groove 102 is a groove that is open on both the upper side and the right side. The cover plate fixed end 4 can be vertically inserted into the upper side of the cover plate fixed end support groove 102. The rotating plate shaft 101 is connected to the main body 1 on the right side of the support groove 102 at the fixed end of the cover plate; the rotating plate 2 includes the main body 2, the boss 201, the rotating plate shaft hole 202, and the counterweight 203. The rotating plate shaft 101 passes through the rotating plate shaft hole 202 so that the rotating plate 2 is hinged to the base support leg 1. The boss 201 is located at one end of the main body 2 close to the fixed end 4 of the cover plate. The rotating plate shaft hole 202 is provided on the main body 2. The counterweight 203 is to ensure that the rotating plate 2 is in the state where the fixed end 4 of the cover plate is not installed with the base support leg 1. In the initial position, the rotating plate 2 is located in the support groove 102 of the fixed end of the cover plate; the turn buckle 3 includes a first connecting member and a locking ring 302, one end of the locking ring 302 is fixedly connected to the first connecting member, and the other end can lock the rotating plate 2, and the other end of the first connecting member is provided with a turn buckle shaft hole 301, and the boss 201 can push the turn buckle 3 to rotate so that the locking ring 302 locks the rotating plate 2; the fixed end 4 of the cover plate includes a body 3, a cover plate connecting end 401, a cover plate fixed end shaft 402, The cover plate fixed end support leg 403, the cover plate connecting end 401 and the cover plate fixed end support leg 403 are respectively located at the two ends of the main body three, and a groove is provided in the middle of the main body three. The cover plate fixed end rotating shaft 402 is located in the groove. The turn buckle 3 is rotatably connected to the cover plate fixed end rotating shaft 402 of the cover plate fixed end 4 through the turn buckle rotating shaft hole 301; the cover plate fixed end 4 is fixed to the cover plate of the underwater equipment through the cover plate connecting end 401, and the base fixed end 103 fixes the base support leg 1 to the base of the underwater equipment.

[0008] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the device of the present invention can save redundant operations during installation and removal of the cover plate, while the cover plate is guaranteed to be stable and reliable during use. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
