[0002] Seafarers not only need to have a strong physique, proficient professional skills, but also possess good psychological qualities, strong environmental adaptability and the ability to respond to emergencies. The seafarer profession has quite high requirements for the professional qualities of practitioners.

[0003] During the process of sailing a ship or a yacht, etc., due to the relatively rough sea surface, it is extremely easy for people on board to fall. Most of the existing life-saving equipment for people falling into the water is for first aid with life buoys or floating boards, etc. Because of their small size, these life-saving methods are extremely easy to turn over, thus affecting timely rescue. And during the rescue process, due to the urgency of the situation, the position information cannot be transmitted in time. Therefore, we propose a life-saving protection and positioning device for seafarers falling into the water at sea. Summary of the Invention

[0032] During use, first, when the drowning person moves to the surface of the protective cover 6, the protective cover 6 will exert a certain pressure on the mounting base 5 and the inside of the mounting base 5. The pressure sensor 23 is installed inside the mounting base 5 made of flexible material, and the contact position at the top of the pressure sensor 23 is in contact with the bottom of the protective cover 6. When the drowning person uses it, a certain pressure can be exerted on the mounting base 5 and the pressure sensor 23, so that the usage data can be transmitted to the inside of the single-chip microcomputer 22. The GPS positioning module 25 is used to position the entire device and transmit the position information to the inside of the single-chip microcomputer 22. The single-chip microcomputer 22 is used to convert the usage information of the pressure sensor 23 and the position information of the GPS positioning module 25 into electrical signals and transmit the electrical signals to the inside of the alarm module 24. Subsequently, the alarm module 24 is used to convert the position information of the GPS positioning module 25 into text and transmit it to the inside of the information transmission module 26 to send an alarm to the relevant department, so that it is convenient for the first-aid personnel to locate the position of the drowning person and carry out rescue. When the drowning person moves to the surfaces of the mounting base 5 and the protective cover 6, the floating platform 1, the extension part 2 and the balance mechanism 3 are flush with the horizontal plane. Subsequently, the pulling rope will be tied inside the tying block 4. Subsequently, during the movement of the entire device, due to being in water, a certain push can be exerted on the push rod 13, so that the push rod 13 and the balance rod 12 can move along the inside of the first working groove 10. Subsequently, the balance rod 12 can push the balance plate 20 to move along the inside of the second working groove 18 through the connecting rod 21, so that the balance plate 20 can float on the water surface, so that the extended balance plate 20 can support one side of the entire device when the entire device is moving. When stopped, the balance rod 12 and the push rod 13 can be pulled back to their original positions by the tension spring 17. The manufacturing materials of the mounting base 5, the floating platform 1, the protective cover 6 and the balance block 9 are all flexible materials. Before use, the mounting base 5, the floating platform 1, the protective cover 6 and the balance block 9 can be folded. Therefore, before using this device, the above devices can be folded and collected. Therefore, the size of the folded device is slightly larger than the size of the pushing mechanism 8. Therefore, the entire device can be collected and folded, and it can be collected in a backpack for storage, which is also convenient for using the entire device. And when using, the backpack can be used to carry the entire device. The folded device is connected by a tying rope. When needed, just pull open the tying rope and it can be unfolded due to its own elasticity and then can be used normally.
