[0001] The present invention relates to a tide slide rule, belonging to the field of nautical technology. Background Art
[0002] In nautical science, an isosceles trapezoid chart is provided for calculating the tide height at any time and the high tide time at any tide height. Since the ebb and flow change law of tides approximates a cosine curve, a paper isosceles trapezoid chart is drawn according to the calculation formulas of the tide time and tide height at any time.
[0003] The existing isosceles trapezoid chart has the following disadvantages: 1. The main chart, tide time scale and tide height scale of the trapezoid chart are paper cards and strips, which are easy to be damaged and lost; 2. The scale division intervals of the tide time difference scale and tide height difference scale of the existing trapezoid chart are relatively large, and the calculation accuracy is not high; 3. The main chart, tide time scale and tide height scale are independent. When translating the tide time scale and tide height scale to the corresponding scale divisions on the hypotenuse of the isosceles trapezoid chart, it is difficult to align the scale lines; 4. When operating the tide time scale and tide height scale under the sea wave conditions, the tide time scale and tide height scale are easy to shift, and it is impossible to accurately measure the tide time or tide height.
