Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of humidity control technology, and in particular to an air humidity control system for ships. Background Technology

[0002] A ship is a man-made means of transportation that mainly operates in geographical waters. Ships have the ability to navigate or anchor in waters for transportation or operations, and they have different technical performance, equipment and structural types according to different usage requirements.

[0003] Because ships spend a lot of time afloat, the environment on board is often high-humidity. This dampness can negatively impact the health of crew members. To mitigate these effects, dehumidifiers are typically installed in each compartment. Therefore, a marine air humidity control system, such as the AK2600A, is a type of air humidity controller that centralizes the control circuitry of multiple dehumidifiers and controls them at designated locations in various compartments. However, this air humidity control system still has some limitations in practical application.

[0004] 1. When using an air humidity control system to control multiple dehumidifiers, the transmission line used to transmit control signals to the dehumidifiers needs to be connected to the wiring port on the controller. However, the connection between the transmission line and the wiring port is made of metal and is partially exposed. Therefore, it is easy for rust to occur in a humid environment, which will increase the contact resistance and increase the possibility of abnormal heating and burning of the wiring port.

[0005] 2. When using a transmission line to connect the dehumidifier to the controller, water droplets can easily condense on the transmission line due to the humid air on board. Also, due to the wiring location, the transmission line is sometimes laid vertically upwards. In this case, the water droplets condensed on the transmission line will flow downwards along the transmission line until they flow to the wiring port on the controller and the connector of the transmission line, causing short circuits or corrosion.

[0006] 3. When laying transmission lines, if there are small compartments, holes are usually drilled in the compartments to allow the transmission lines to pass through. However, when the transmission lines are in the compartments, the ship is prone to swaying, which will cause the transmission lines to sway and rub against the rough holes in the compartments. With prolonged friction, the outer insulation of the transmission lines is easily damaged, which will affect the service life of the transmission lines. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide an air humidity control system for ships, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as the easy occurrence of corrosion in humid environments, which leads to increased contact resistance and increases the possibility of abnormal heating and burning of the wiring ports; water droplets condensing on the transmission lines will flow down the transmission lines until they flow onto the wiring ports on the controller and the connectors of the transmission lines, causing short circuits or corrosion; and the outer insulation of the transmission lines is easily damaged due to long-term friction, thus affecting the service life of the transmission lines.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a marine air humidity control system, comprising a controller housing, a control panel mounted on the controller housing, multiple transmission lines provided on the controller housing, a glass cover provided on the controller housing, a support block fixedly mounted on the housing, a shielding shell provided on the support block, the shielding shell having an "L" shaped cross-section, a first spring fixedly mounted on the short arm end of the shielding shell, a support plate fixedly mounted on the end of the first spring away from the shielding shell, and the support plate fixedly mounted to the controller housing;

[0009] A movable ring is provided on the transmission line. A sponge ring is fixedly installed inside the movable ring. A water guide plate is fixedly installed on the sponge ring. A liquid collection box is fixedly installed at the end of the water guide plate away from the movable ring.

[0010] A first shielding ring is provided on the transmission line, and two second shielding rings are provided on the transmission line. The two second shielding rings are respectively located at both ends of the first shielding ring, and a side ring is fixedly installed at the ends of the two second shielding rings that are far apart from each other.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a shielding strip is fixedly installed on the shielding shell, the shielding strip is fixedly installed with the controller housing, and rubber sheets are fixedly installed on both sides of the shielding shell.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of sponge blocks are fixedly installed inside the shielding shell, the sponge blocks are in pairs, a connecting rope is fixedly installed on the shielding shell, and the end of the connecting rope away from the shielding shell is fixedly installed to the glass cover.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a support rod is fixedly installed on the controller housing, a rotating shaft is provided on the support rod, and the connecting rope is inserted into the interior of the support rod.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, an infusion tube is provided on the fluid collection box, and a connecting block is fixedly installed on the infusion tube.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, two elastic plates are fixedly installed on the connecting block, and hook blocks are fixedly installed on the ends of the two elastic plates away from the connecting block.

[0016] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, both hooks have triangular cross-sectional shapes, and collection boxes are provided on the two elastic plates, with the infusion tube inserted into the interior of the collection box.

[0017] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, both the first shielding ring and the second shielding ring are fixedly installed with multiple rotating rods inside, and each rotating rod is provided with a support shaft.

[0018] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of second springs are fixedly installed at both ends of the first shielding ring, and the ends of the two sets of second springs that are far apart from each other are respectively fixedly installed at the ends of the two second shielding rings that are close to each other.

[0019] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, multiple long rods are fixedly installed at both ends of the first shielding ring, and the ends of the two sets of long rods that are far apart from each other are respectively inserted into the interior of the two second shielding rings.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0021] 1. This invention uses a shielding shell, a glass cover, and a second spring to shield the connection between the transmission line and the wiring port. The shielding shell, rubber sheet, shielding strip, and sponge block can reduce the entry of humid air into the shielding shell, thereby slowing down the corrosion rate at the connection between the transmission line and the wiring port. When the glass cover is released, the first spring can push the shielding shell to close again, which can also drive the glass cover to close, preventing the glass cover from being forgotten to be closed.

[0022] 2. By setting up a sponge ring, a liquid collection box, and a collection box, the present invention can absorb some of the water droplets as they flow down the transmission line, preventing the water droplets from continuing to flow down and causing direct contact between the transmission line and the connection port and the water droplets. When there are too many water droplets, the water droplets will flow from the moving ring and the water guide plate into the annular liquid collection box, and then flow through the infusion tube into the collection box for collection.

[0023] 3. This invention, by setting a first shielding ring, a second shielding ring, and a second spring, positions the first and second shielding rings within the hole. The first and second shielding rings prevent the transmission line from contacting the rough hole in the compartment, thus increasing the transmission line's lifespan. The second spring pulls the two side rings, clamping them onto both sides of the compartment. This ensures that the first and second shielding rings remain within the hole, preventing them from detaching and failing to protect the transmission line. Attached Figure Description

[0031] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] Please see Figure 1-6 This invention provides a technical solution for a marine air humidity control system: Example

[0033] according to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a marine air humidity control system includes a controller housing 1, a control panel 5 mounted on the controller housing 1, multiple transmission lines 6 disposed on the controller housing 1, a glass cover 201 rotatably connected to the controller housing 1, a support block 208 fixedly mounted on the housing, a shield 202 disposed on the support block 208, the shield 202 rotatably connected to the support block 208, the shield 202 having an "L" shaped cross-section, a first spring 206 fixedly mounted on the short arm end of the shield 202, and a support plate 205 fixedly mounted on the end of the first spring 206 away from the shield 202, the support plate 205 being connected to the controller. The outer casing 1 is fixedly installed. A shielding strip 207 is fixedly installed on the shielding shell 202. The shielding strip 207 is fixedly installed on the controller outer casing 1. Rubber sheets 204 are fixedly installed on both sides of the shielding shell 202. Multiple sponge blocks 203 are fixedly installed inside the shielding shell 202. The sponge blocks 203 are in pairs. A connecting rope 210 is fixedly installed on the shielding shell 202. The end of the connecting rope 210 away from the shielding shell 202 is fixedly installed to the glass cover 201. A support rod 209 is fixedly installed on the controller outer casing 1. A rotating shaft 211 is provided on the support rod 209. The rotating shaft 211 is rotatably connected to the inside of the support rod 209. The connecting rope 210 is inserted into the inside of the support rod 209.

[0034] In practical use, when using the shipborne air humidity control system of the present invention to centrally control multiple dehumidification devices, it is necessary to first rotate the shielding shell 202 to expose the wiring port on the outer shell. At this time, the first spring 206 is in a compressed state. Then, the transmission line 6 is connected to the wiring port. The shielding shell 202 then covers the connection between the transmission line 6 and the wiring port. At the same time, the rubber sheet 204 covers both sides of the shielding shell 202, and the shielding strip 207 covers the gap between the shielding shell 202 and the controller outer shell 1 to reduce the entry of humid air into the interior of the shielding shell 202, thereby slowing down the corrosion rate at the connection between the transmission line 6 and the wiring port. When the controller controls the dehumidification equipment, the glass cover 201 is opened, and then the control panel 5 is used for operation. During the rotation of the glass cover 201, the connecting rope 210 pulls the shield 202 to rotate, thereby opening the shield 202 and exposing the transmission line 6 and the wiring port, so that the corrosion of the transmission line 6 and the wiring port can be observed each time it is used. When the glass cover 201 is released, the first spring 206 pushes the shield 202 to close, which in turn drives the glass cover 201 to close. When the shield 202 is closed, the sponge block 203 blocks the holes on the controller housing 1 next to the transmission line 6, further reducing the entry of humid air into the interior of the shield 202. Example

[0035] Based on Example 1, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a movable ring 304 is provided on the transmission line 6, and the transmission line 6 is inserted into the interior of the movable ring 304. A sponge ring 305 is fixedly installed inside the movable ring 304, and a water guide plate 303 is fixedly installed on the sponge ring 305. A liquid collection box 301 is fixedly installed at the end of the water guide plate 303 away from the movable ring 304. An infusion tube 306 is provided on the liquid collection box 301 and is connected to the liquid collection box 301. A connecting block 307 is fixedly installed on the infusion tube 306, and two elastic plates 308 are fixedly installed on the connecting block 307. A hook block 302 is fixedly installed at the end of each of the two elastic plates 308 away from the connecting block 307. The cross-sectional shape of the two hook blocks 302 is triangular. A collection box 309 is provided on the two elastic plates 308, and the infusion tube 306 is inserted into the interior of the collection box 309.

[0036] In practical use, this invention provides a marine air humidity control system. In certain situations, when the transmission line 6 needs to be laid out vertically, the moving ring 304 is moved to the vertically arranged position. This causes water droplets to condense on the transmission line 6. As the water droplets flow downwards along the transmission line 6, the sponge ring 305 absorbs some of the flowing water, preventing it from continuing to flow downwards. When there are too many water droplets, they flow from the moving ring 304 and the guide plate 303 into the annular collection box 301, and then through the infusion pipe 306 to the collection box 309 for collection. When the collection box 309 is full, bend the two elastic plates 308 toward each other, causing the two hooks 302 to disengage from under the collection box 309, allowing the collection box 309 to be removed. When installing the collection box 309, press the inner ring of the collection box 309 against the inclined surface of the hooks 302, causing the two elastic plates 308 to bend toward each other until the two hooks 302 pass through the collection box 309. Then, use the elastic plates 308 to position the two hooks 302 under the collection box 309, hooking the collection box 309 to quickly complete the installation of the collection box 309. Example

[0037] Based on Example 1, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a first shielding ring 402 is provided on the transmission line 6, and two second shielding rings 403 are provided on the transmission line 6. Both the second shielding rings 403 and the first shielding ring 402 are sleeved on the surface of the transmission line 6. The two second shielding rings 403 are located at opposite ends of the first shielding ring 402. Side rings 401 are fixedly installed at the ends of the two second shielding rings 403 that are furthest from each other. Multiple rotating rods 407 are fixedly installed inside both the first shielding ring 402 and the second shielding ring 403. A support shaft 404 is provided on the moving rod 407, and the support shaft 404 is rotatably connected to the rotating rod 407. Multiple second springs 406 are fixedly installed at both ends of the first shielding ring 402. The ends of the two sets of second springs 406 that are far apart from each other are fixedly installed at the ends of the two second shielding rings 403 that are close to each other. Multiple long rods 405 are fixedly installed at both ends of the first shielding ring 402. The ends of the two sets of long rods 405 that are far apart from each other are inserted into the interior of the two second shielding rings 403.

[0038] In practical use, the marine air humidity control system of the present invention, during the wiring process, if the transmission line 6 is to pass through a hole, the first shielding ring 402 and the second shielding ring 403 can be moved to a position where the transmission line 6 contacts the hole, so that the first shielding ring 402 and the second shielding ring 403 are located in the hole. In this way, the first shielding ring 402 and the second shielding ring 403 can prevent the transmission line 6 from contacting the rough hole in the compartment, and the rolling rotating rod 407 can further reduce the friction experienced by the transmission line 6. To increase the lifespan of the transmission line 6, pull the two second shielding rings 403, causing them to move away from each other. At this time, the second spring 406 is in a stretched state. Then release the second shielding rings 403, and the two side rings 401 can be pulled by the second spring 406 to clamp the two sides of the compartment. This ensures that the first shielding ring 402 and the second shielding ring 403 are always in the hole, preventing the first shielding ring 402 and the second shielding ring 403 from detaching from the hole and failing to provide protection for the transmission line 6.
