[0016] A traction component is used to connect the winch and the delivery gate. The traction component is retracted onto the winch under the drive of the drive component, so that the storage rack switches between the storage state and the delivery state.

[0017] Optionally, the traction component is a traction rope. A first guide is provided on the housing between the drive component and the delivery gate. A second guide is also provided on the housing, symmetrically arranged with respect to the first guide.

[0019] Optionally, the receiving cavity also has a storage opening on the housing opposite to the delivery port. The water rescue device can be accessed and stored in the storage mechanism through the storage opening. The storage device also includes a storage door, which is movably connected to the housing and can cover the storage opening. The storage door is provided with a locking mechanism that is communicatively connected to the controller. The locking mechanism can receive control signals from the controller to lock or unlock the storage door and the housing.

[0020] Optionally, the storage rack also has a retractable state, and the opening and closing component is used to drive the storage rack to switch between the storage state and the retractable state; during the process of the storage rack switching from the storage state to the retractable state, the storage rack flips out of the receiving cavity from the delivery port, and the water rescue device can be locked on the storage rack; during the process of the storage rack switching from the retractable state to the storage state, the water rescue device flips with the storage rack and stands upright in the receiving cavity.

[0021] Optionally, the storage device further includes a remote control mechanism, which is housed within the receiving cavity and communicatively connected to the water rescue device.

The storage mechanism includes a storage rack for storing water rescue equipment and an opening and closing component. The storage rack has a storage state and a release state, and the opening and closing component is disposed between the storage rack and the housing to drive the storage rack to switch between the storage state and the release state. During the process of the storage rack switching to the storage state, the water rescue equipment is flipped up with the storage rack, stands upright in the receiving cavity, and is placed on the storage rack. This storage device, capable of holding life-saving devices upright within its containment cavity, significantly reduces the footprint of the container and improves the space utilization of the storage device. The smaller footprint also correspondingly reduces the infrastructure costs of the storage device. During the process of switching the storage rack to the deployment state, the life-saving device flips out of the containment cavity from the deployment port along with the storage rack, and the life-saving device can slide off the storage rack. This deployment method of the storage device can avoid setting up a dedicated deployment structure, thereby integrating the mechanisms for storage and deployment into one mechanism, effectively simplifying the structural design of the storage device and reducing manufacturing costs.

Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this invention, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0047] As described in the background section, with the development of technology, more efficient, intelligent, and safer water rescue robots have emerged as water rescue equipment. These robots are typically stored in open areas near water bodies to quickly rescue people who have fallen into the water. However, existing devices for storing these water rescue robots occupy a large area, have low space utilization, and incur high infrastructure costs.

[0048] To address the aforementioned problems, according to one aspect of this application, an embodiment of this application provides a storage device, which please refer to in conjunction with the above. Figures 1 to 7 The storage device 1 is used to store a water rescue device 2. The storage device 1 includes a housing 10 and a storage mechanism 20. The housing 10 has a receiving cavity 110 for accommodating the water rescue device 2, and the receiving cavity 110 has a release port 111 on the side of the housing 10. The storage mechanism 20 includes a storage rack 210 for storing the water rescue device 2 and an opening and closing assembly 220. The storage rack 210 is disposed in the release port 111 and rotatably connected to the housing 10. The opening and closing assembly 220 is disposed between the storage rack 210 and the housing 10. Between 0 and 0, the storage rack 210 has a storage state and a deployment state. The opening and closing component 220 is used to drive the storage rack 210 to switch between the storage state and the deployment state. When the storage rack 210 is in the storage state, the water rescue device 2 stands in the receiving cavity 110 and is placed on the storage rack 210. During the process of the storage rack 210 switching from the storage state to the deployment state, the water rescue device 2 flips out of the receiving cavity 110 from the deployment port 111 along with the storage rack 210, and the water rescue device 2 can slide off the storage rack 210.

[0049] Compared with the prior art, the storage device 1 provided in this embodiment of the invention has a housing 10 with a delivery port 111. A storage mechanism 20 for storing a water rescue device 2 is provided inside the delivery port 111. The storage mechanism 20 includes a storage rack 210 for storing the water rescue device 2 and an opening / closing component 220. The storage rack 210 has a storage state and a delivery state. The opening / closing component 220 is disposed between the storage rack 210 and the housing 10 to drive the storage rack 210 to switch between the storage state and the delivery state. During the process of the storage rack 210 switching to the storage state, the water rescue device 2 flips with the storage rack 210 and stands upright in the receiving cavity 110 and is placed there. The storage device 1 on the storage rack 210, which can store the water rescue device 2 standing in the receiving cavity 110, can significantly reduce the floor area of ​​the box 10 and improve the space utilization of the storage device 1. The small floor area also reduces the infrastructure cost of the storage device 1. During the process of switching the storage rack 210 to the deployment state, the water rescue device 2 flips out of the receiving cavity 110 from the deployment port 111 along with the storage rack 210, and the water rescue device 2 can slide off the storage rack 210. This deployment method of the storage device 1 can avoid setting up a special deployment structure, and thus integrate the mechanisms for storage and deployment into one mechanism, effectively simplifying the structural design of the storage device 1 and reducing the manufacturing cost.

[0050] It should be noted that the storage device 1 is applied next to the water, or more specifically, the storage device 1 is fixed on the ground next to the water surface. The release port 111 of the storage device 1 faces the water surface so that when the storage rack 210 is switched to the release state, the water rescue device 2 can slide directly from the storage rack 210 to the water surface to speed up the rescue.

[0051] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 and Figure 5 The storage rack 210 includes a release door 211, a hanging structure 212, and a slide rail 213. The release door 211 is rotatably connected to the box 10 at the lower end of the release port 111. The release door 211 can cover the release port 111 and always has a tendency to turn away from the release port 111. The hanging structure 212 is provided on the side of the release door 211 near the receiving cavity 110. The hanging structure 212 is used to hang the water rescue device 2 when the storage rack 210 is in the storage state, so that the water rescue device 2 can be placed upright in the receiving cavity 110. The slide rail 213 is laid on the side of the release door 211 near the receiving cavity 110. The slide rail 213 is used to guide the water rescue device 2 from the storage rack 210 to slide down to the water surface when the storage rack 210 is in the release state.

[0052] With the above configuration, during the process of switching the storage rack 210 to the storage state, the life-saving device 2 flips up with the release door 211 and stands upright in the receiving cavity 110, and is placed or locked on the hanging structure 212, with a slide rail 213 separating the life-saving device 2 from the release door 211. During the process of switching the storage rack 210 to the release state, the life-saving device 2 flips out of the receiving cavity 110 from the release port 111 with the release door 211. During this process, the life-saving device 2 changes its spatial posture with the release door 211. This change in spatial posture means that the life-saving device 2 gradually rotates from upright to angled downwards, so that it can slide off the storage rack 210, or it can unlock from the hanging structure 212 and slide off the storage rack 210. During this process, the weight of the life-saving device 2 gradually presses on the slide rail 213 until the storage rack 210 is in the release state, at which point the life-saving device 2 slides off the slide rail 213 onto the water surface, completing the release action.

[0053] Specifically, when the storage rack 210 is in the storage state, the delivery door 211 is covered on the delivery port 111 by the pulling force of the opening and closing component 220. During the process of the storage rack 210 switching from the storage state to the delivery state, the delivery door 211 of the storage rack 210 in the storage state is no longer subject to the pulling force of the opening and closing component 220. Since the delivery door 211 always has the tendency to turn away from the delivery port 111, the storage rack 210 automatically flips out of the receiving cavity 110 from the delivery port 111 to quickly deliver the water rescue device 2.

[0054] Furthermore, the hanging structure 212 is a bent structure, which together with the release door 211 in the storage state forms an upward-facing U-shaped structure. The water rescue device 2 is hung in the gap of the U-shaped structure and locked on the hanging structure 212 under its own weight. During the process of the storage rack 210 switching to the release state, as the release door 211 gradually moves away from the release port 111, the weight of the water rescue device 2 also gradually transfers from the hanging structure 212 to the slide rail 213. When the release door 211 rotates to the preset angle, the water rescue device 2 slides freely from the slide rail 213 to the water surface, completing the release action.

[0055] In one specific embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 After the delivery door 211 is flipped to a preset angle, the slide rail 213 is inclined downward on the delivery door 211 from one end near the box 10 to the other end.

[0056] With the above configuration, the slide rail 213 is inclined downward on the delivery door 211 from one end near the box 10 to the other end, making it easier for the water rescue device 2 to slide freely from the slide rail 213 and speeding up the delivery speed of the water rescue device 2.

[0057] Specifically, there are two slide rails 213, which are located on both sides of the hanging structure 212, so that the water rescue device 2 can slide down stably; the angle between the slide rail 213 and the release door 211 is 5°, so as to ensure that the water rescue device 2 can slide freely from the slide rail 213 to the water surface.

[0058] Of course, the specific number of slide rails 213 and the angle between slide rails 213 and delivery door 211 can be selected according to the specifications and models of the water rescue equipment 2 to be stored, and there is no single limitation here.

[0059] In another specific embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 The opening and closing assembly 220 includes a drive unit 221, a winch 222, and a traction unit 223. The drive unit 221 is located at the top inside the housing 10 and has a drive shaft. The winch 222 is connected to the drive shaft and can rotate forward or backward under the drive of the drive unit 221. The traction unit 223 is used to connect the winch 222 and the delivery door 211. The traction unit 223 is placed on the winch 222 under the drive of the drive unit 221 so that the storage rack 210 can switch between the storage state and the delivery state.

[0060] With the above configuration, the opening and closing assembly 220, which includes the drive component 221, winch 222, and traction component 223, has the advantages of low cost, stable operation, and fast opening and closing speed compared to a hydraulic structure.

[0061] Specifically, the drive component 221 is preferably a drive motor to stably provide power and facilitate forward and reverse switching.

[0062] In a more specific embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 6 The traction component 223 is a traction rope. A first guide component 224 is provided on the housing 10 between the drive component 221 and the delivery gate 211. A second guide component 225 is also provided on the housing 10, which is symmetrically arranged with the first guide component 224. A third guide component 226 corresponding to the second guide component 225 and a fourth guide component 227 corresponding to the first guide component 224 are respectively provided on the delivery gate 211. One end of the traction rope is connected to the winch 222, and the other end of the traction rope passes through the first guide component 224, the second guide component 225, the third guide component 226 and the fourth guide component 227 in sequence before being connected to the winch 222.

[0063] With the above configuration, when the winch 222 rotates, both ends of the traction rope can be simultaneously wound and released, effectively improving the opening and closing speed of the opening and closing assembly 220. One end of the traction rope is connected to the winch 222, and the other end passes through the first guide member 224, the second guide member 225, the third guide member 226, and the fourth guide member 227 in sequence before being connected to the winch 222. This can be considered as the traction rope simultaneously pulling both sides of the delivery door 211. Compared with pulling only one side of the delivery door 211, pulling on both sides can make the traction force on the delivery door 211 more uniform, making the rotation of the delivery door 211 more stable.

[0064] Of course, in other embodiments, the traction rope may also include a first rope segment and a second rope segment. One end of the first rope segment is connected to the winch 222, and the other end is connected to the fourth guide 227 or the release gate 211 at the fourth guide 227. One end of the second rope segment is connected to the winch 222, and the other end passes through the first guide 224 and the second guide 225 in sequence before being connected to the third guide 226 or the release gate 211 at the third guide 226. This two-rope-segment structure design can also achieve simultaneous traction on both sides of the release gate 211.

[0065] It should be noted that the specific structure of the opening and closing component 220 can be selected according to actual needs, and no single limitation is made here.

[0066] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 The storage device 1 also includes a control mechanism 40, which includes a controller that is communicatively connected to the control center 3. The controller is connected to the opening and closing component 220, which can receive control signals from the controller to switch the storage rack 210 between the storage state and the delivery state.

[0067] Specifically, the controller is electrically connected to the drive unit 221. The controller controls the forward and reverse rotation of the drive unit 221 to retract and extend the traction unit 223, thereby controlling the delivery rack to switch between the storage state and the delivery state.

[0068] In one specific embodiment, please refer to Figure 7The receiving cavity 110 also has a storage opening 112 on the housing 10, which is opposite to the delivery opening 111. The water rescue device 2 can be accessed and stored in the storage mechanism 20 through the storage opening 112. The storage device 1 also includes a storage door 30, which is movably connected to the housing 10 and can cover the storage opening 112. The storage door 30 is provided with a locking mechanism 310 that is communicatively connected to the controller. The locking mechanism 310 can receive control signals from the controller to lock or unlock the storage door 30 and the housing 10.

[0069] With the above setup, when the water rescue device 2 is used for rescue and needs to be returned to the storage device 1, the rescuer or on-site personnel only need to open the locking mechanism 310 to open the storage door 30 and put the water rescue device 2 back onto the launch rack from the storage opening 112 to wait for the next rescue launch. Since the launch opening 111 is close to the water surface, it is difficult to put the water rescue device 2 back from the launch opening 111 due to the influence of the water surface. However, putting the water rescue device 2 back from the storage door 30 can be easily done from the ground.

[0070] In another specific embodiment, the storage rack 210 also has a retractable state, and the opening and closing component 220 is used to drive the storage rack 210 to switch between the storage state and the retractable state; during the process of the storage rack 210 switching from the storage state to the retractable state, the storage rack 210 flips out of the receiving cavity 110 from the delivery port 111, and the water rescue device 2 can be locked on the storage rack 210; during the process of the storage rack 210 switching from the retractable state to the storage state, the water rescue device 2 flips with the storage rack 210 and stands upright in the receiving cavity 110.

[0071] With the above configuration, the storage mechanism 20 of the storage device 1 can integrate the delivery and recycling functions, eliminating the need for the storage door 30, effectively simplifying the structural design of the storage device 1 and reducing production costs.

[0072] In another specific embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 The storage device 1 also includes a remote control mechanism 50, which is housed in the receiving cavity 110 and is communicatively connected to the water rescue device 2.

[0073] In this way, after the water rescue device 2 is deployed into the water, rescuers or on-site personnel can easily retrieve the remote control mechanism 50 from the storage device 1 and remotely control the operation of the water rescue device 2 in a timely manner, so as to quickly rescue people who have fallen into the water.

[0074] Specifically, when the storage device 1 has a storage door 30, rescue personnel or on-site personnel can retrieve the remote control mechanism 50 through the opened storage door 30. When the storage device 1 does not have a storage door 30, a window (not shown in the figure) can be provided on the storage device 1, and rescue personnel or on-site personnel can also retrieve the remote control mechanism 50 through the opened window. Alternatively, the remote control mechanism 50 can be directly installed on the outside of the storage device 1, which also allows rescue personnel or on-site personnel to easily obtain the remote control mechanism 50. The specific method of obtaining the remote control mechanism 50 can be selected according to actual needs and is not limited here.

[0075] In a more specific embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 The control mechanism 40 also includes an electrical control box 410 for accommodating the controller. The water rescue device 2 is U-shaped. The electrical control box 410 is located in the accommodating cavity 110 and in the U-shaped gap of the water rescue device 2. The top of the electrical control box 410 is provided with a placement rack 510, and the remote control mechanism 50 is placed on the placement rack 510.

[0076] By setting it up as described above, the control structure and remote control mechanism 50 are placed in the U-shaped opening of the water rescue device 2, which improves the space utilization of the storage device 1 and reduces the floor area occupied by the storage device 1.

[0077] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figures 4 to 7 The storage device 1 also includes an alarm mechanism. The alarm mechanism 60 includes an alarm switch 610 and an alarm device 620. The alarm switch 610 is connected to the control mechanism 40 and the alarm device 620 respectively, so that when the alarm switch 610 is activated, it sends an alarm signal to the control mechanism 40 and the alarm device 620 respectively. The alarm device 620 can receive the alarm signal and issue an alarm message. The alarm switch 610 is disposed on the outer surface of the housing 10.

[0078] With the above settings, when someone falls into the water and needs rescue, on-site personnel can send an alarm signal to the control mechanism 40 by activating the alarm switch 610.
