AI Technical Summary
The supports of existing seabed observation equipment are prone to sinking or tilting on silty seabeds, resulting in invalid observation data and making it impossible to achieve stable, long-term observation at fixed points.
A support structure for seabed observation equipment was designed, which uses a rectangular base plate and mounting plate structure made of cement. Combined with components such as a holding mechanism, buoyancy ball and counterweight rope, it ensures that the mounting pipe always remains vertical. The base plate is fixed to the seabed by hoisting equipment, and the stability of the mounting pipe is maintained by water pressure and the detachment mechanism of the buoyancy ball.
