Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of marine water body detection technology, and in particular to a depth-adjustable marine water body detector. Background Technology

[0002] The ocean is the collective term for the most extensive body of water on Earth. The Earth's surface is divided into vast, interconnected bodies of water called oceans. Faced with severe pollution of the marine environment and excessive exploitation of marine resources, which has led to serious damage to the marine environment and its resources, people have begun to protect the ocean. This requires monitoring of marine water bodies and the development of targeted marine protection measures.

[0003] When conducting ocean water monitoring, in order to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the ocean's overall information, it is necessary to monitor the state of the water at different depths. This requires deploying the desired monitoring instruments to ocean water at different depths to collect information. Currently, the most common deployment method involves connecting the monitoring instrument to a rope, allowing it to sink in the seawater using its own weight. The sinking depth of the instrument is adjusted by controlling the length of the rope. However, due to interference from ocean currents and other factors, relying solely on the equipment's own weight for sinking can easily lead to the equipment being impacted by ocean currents and causing it to rotate and float in the seawater. This, in turn, can cause the rope to become tangled and knotted, thus affecting normal operation.

[0004] Meanwhile, due to the presence of ocean currents, the rope cannot guarantee a relatively vertical descent. Thus, controlling the descent depth of the detection instrument by controlling the release length of the rope becomes impossible due to the rope being tilted by the ocean current. Furthermore, the detection instrument is located in the deep ocean, making it inconvenient to operate. The rope can be bent, which also makes it inconvenient to work. All of these factors make it impossible to successfully complete the detection work at the specified depth of the ocean.

[0005] To address these issues, we propose a depth-adjustable ocean water detector. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems existing in the prior art by proposing a depth-adjustable ocean water detector.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0008] A depth-adjustable ocean water detector includes a base and a detector. The detector has a worktable, and a working cavity is located on the side wall of the worktable away from the detector. A working tube is fixedly connected to the side wall of the worktable away from the detector, and the working tube communicates with the working cavity. Multiple control ports are located on the inner wall of the working cavity, each containing a control component. Multiple power ports are located on the side wall of the worktable near the working tube, and these power ports communicate with the working cavity. A rotating stage is fixedly connected to the side wall of the working cavity away from the working tube. A control cavity is located on the side wall of the rotating stage near the working tube, and a control hole is located on the inner wall of the control cavity. The control hole matches the multiple control ports. A support column is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the working cavity, and a control motor is mounted on the support column. A control shaft is mounted on the control motor, and a connecting column is fixedly connected to the control shaft. Both ends of the connecting column are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the control cavity. An operating component is located on the base and is connected to the working tube.

[0009] As another technical solution, the operating component includes two fixed plates fixedly connected to the base. Each of the two fixed plates is provided with a rotating hole, and a rotating shaft is rotatably connected to both rotating holes. A pipe frame is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft, and the working pipe is wound around the pipe frame. The end of the working pipe away from the worktable is fixedly connected to the pipe frame. A jet chamber is provided inside the rotating shaft, and a jet port is provided on the pipe frame. One end of the jet port is connected to the jet chamber, and the other end is connected to the working pipe. A jet pump is fixedly connected to the outer wall of one end of the rotating shaft, and a jet pipe is provided on the jet pump. The jet pipe passes through the rotating shaft and is connected to the jet chamber.

[0010] As another technical solution, the control component includes multiple sliding grooves disposed on the inner wall of the control port, a sliding frame slidably connected in the multiple sliding grooves, a control spring disposed on one side inner wall of each of the multiple sliding grooves, one end of each of the multiple control springs being fixedly connected to the sliding frame, a sliding column being fixedly connected to one side wall of the sliding frame, a sliding plug being fixedly connected to the side wall of the sliding column away from the sliding frame, the sliding plug being slidably connected to the inner wall of the control port, and a sealing disc being fixedly connected to the side wall of the sliding plug away from the sliding column, the sealing disc being positioned directly opposite the control port.

[0011] As another technical solution, a control device is provided on the outer wall of the rotating shaft away from the jet pump. The control device is provided with a control line. The end of the control line away from the control device passes through the rotating shaft, the jet chamber, the jet nozzle, and the working pipe. The end of the control line away from the control device is provided on the control motor.

[0012] As another technical solution, an operating disc is fixedly connected to one side wall of the rotating shaft. The operating disc is fitted to one of the fixing plates, and the fixing plate is provided with fixing holes. The operating disc is provided with multiple threaded holes arranged at equal intervals. The multiple threaded holes are arranged in a centrally symmetrical manner. A threaded head is threaded into one of the threaded holes. A fixing head is fixedly connected to one end of the threaded head. The fixing head is matched with the fixing hole.

[0013] As another technical solution, the base is provided with a limiting port, and the working tube is provided through the limiting port.

[0014] As another technical solution, the sliding plug and the sealing disc are both provided with a waterproof sealing layer.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0016] 1. In this invention, the user can use a jet pump to deliver air into the working chamber through structures such as the jet chamber, jet port, and working pipe. Then, with the help of the power port, the air can be jetted towards the working pipe, i.e. the upper part. This, together with the gravity of the detector and other structures, allows the detector to complete the sinking work stably without rolling or other problems that would cause the working pipe to become tangled or knotted, thus greatly ensuring the smooth completion of the detection work.

[0017] 2. Simultaneously, the control motor drives the rotary table to rotate the control hole to the appropriate position, allowing air in the working chamber to be ejected through the control hole and the control port in the specified direction. This air ejection from the control port in the specified direction propels the working table to counteract the impact of the water flow, allowing the detector and the working tube to descend relatively vertically. The user can then accurately control the descent depth of the detector by controlling the release length of the working tube, thereby accurately completing the marine water body detection work at the specified depth.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments.

[0024] Reference Figure 1-4 A depth-adjustable ocean water detector includes a base 1 and a detector 2. The detector 2 is a device in the prior art that can perform seawater information detection to assist in ocean conservation. The detector 2 is equipped with a worktable 3. A working cavity 4 is provided on the side wall of the worktable 3 away from the detector 2. A working pipe 5 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the worktable 3 away from the detector 2, and the working pipe 5 is connected to the working cavity 4. The inner wall of the working cavity 4 is provided with multiple control ports 6. Each control port 6 is equipped with a control component. The control component includes multiple sliding grooves 23 provided on the inner wall of the control port 6. A sliding frame 24 is slidably connected to the multiple sliding grooves 23. A control spring 37 is provided on one side of the inner wall of each of the multiple sliding grooves 23. One end of each of the multiple control springs 37 is fixedly connected to the sliding frame 24. A sliding column 25 is fixedly connected to one side wall of the sliding frame 24. A sliding plug 26 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the sliding column 25 away from the sliding frame 24. The sliding plug 26 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the control port 6. A sealing plate 27 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the sliding plug 26 away from the sliding column 25. The sealing plate 27 is set directly opposite the control port 6. This allows the control port 6 to be normally closed, so that when no air is ejected from the control port 6, seawater cannot enter the control port 6, thus maintaining the safety of the rotating platform 8 and other structures. At the same time, this arrangement allows the sliding plug 26 and the sealing plate 27 to be pushed open when air is ejected from the control port 6, without affecting the spraying operation.

[0025] A waterproof sealing layer 36 is provided on both the sliding plug 26 and the sealing disc 27, which greatly improves the sealing effect of the control port 6. Multiple power ports 7 are provided on the side wall of the worktable 3 near the working tube 5, and all power ports 7 are connected to the working chamber 4. A rotary table 8 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the working chamber 4 away from the working tube 5. A control chamber 9 is provided on the side wall of the rotary table 8 near the working tube 5. A control hole 10 is provided on the inner wall of the control chamber 9, and the control hole 10 is matched with multiple control ports 6. A support column 11 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the working chamber 4. A control motor 12 is provided on the support column 11, and a control shaft 13 is provided on the control motor 12. A connecting column 14 is fixedly connected to the control shaft 13, and both ends of the connecting column 14 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the control chamber 9. An operating component is provided on the base 1, and the operating component is connected to the working tube 5. A limiting port 35 is provided on the base 1, and the working tube 5 passes through the limiting port 35. This restricts the working tube 5, making it easier for the user to observe the tilt angle of the working tube 5, and at the same time making the lowering of the working tube 5 more stable. The operating components include two fixed plates 15 fixedly connected to the base 1. Each fixed plate 15 is provided with a rotating hole 16. A rotating shaft 17 is rotatably connected in both rotating holes 16. An operating disc 30 is fixedly connected to the side wall of one end of the rotating shaft 17. The operating disc 30 is set against one of the fixed plates 15, and the fixed plate 15 is provided with a fixing hole 31. The operating disc 30 is provided with multiple threaded holes 32 arranged at equal intervals. The multiple threaded holes 32 are centrally symmetrical. A threaded head 33 is threadedly connected in one of the threaded holes 32. A fixing head 34 is fixedly connected to one end of the threaded head 33. The fixing head 34 is matched with the fixing hole 31. In this way, the rotating shaft 17 and the pipe rack 18 can be stably fixed, which facilitates the user to release the length of the working tube 5 and fix it.

[0026] A pipe rack 18 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 17. The working pipe 5 is wound around the pipe rack 18, and the end of the working pipe 5 away from the worktable 3 is fixedly connected to the pipe rack 18. A jet chamber 19 is provided inside the rotating shaft 17, and a jet port 20 is provided on the pipe rack 18. One end of the jet port 20 is connected to the jet chamber 19, and the other end is connected to the working pipe 5. A jet pump 21 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of one end of the rotating shaft 17. A jet pipe 22 is provided on the jet pump 21. The jet pipe 22 passes through the rotating shaft 17 and is connected to the jet chamber 19, thus enabling the jet pump to spray air into the working pipe. The air control workbench 3 and the detector 2 are stably lowered and their positions adjusted, allowing the user to smoothly complete the ocean water body detection work at the specified depth. A control device 28 is provided on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 17 away from the jet pump 21. A control line 29 is provided on the control device 28. The end of the control line 29 away from the control device 28 passes through the rotating shaft 17, the jet chamber 19, the jet nozzle 20 and the working pipe 5. The end of the control line 29 away from the control device 28 is set on the control motor 12. Deep seawater may block the signal, and the control line 29 enables the control work to be completed stably.

[0027] In the process of using this invention, the jet pump 21 is first turned on, so that the jet pump 21 sprays air into the jet chamber 19 through the jet pipe 22. In this way, the high-speed air can enter the working chamber 4 through the jet port 20 and the working pipe 5, and then be ejected through multiple power ports 7. Then the user can rotate the rotating shaft 17 and the pipe frame 18 to release the working pipe 5, so that the detector 2 and the worktable 3 can sink into the water under their own gravity. At this time, the air ejected from the multiple power ports 7 can be used as power to push the worktable 3 and the detector 2 to sink steadily. This can effectively prevent the worktable 3 and the detector 2 from spinning and rolling in the water, which would cause the working pipe 5 to become tangled and knotted. This greatly ensures the smooth completion of the lowering and subsequent lifting of the detector 2, as well as the smooth progress of the subsequent ventilation work.

[0028] When the user releases the working tube 5 to the specified length, the threaded head 33 can be rotated to connect to the threaded hole 32, and then the fixing head 34 can be pushed into the fixing hole 31. This completes the fixing of the operating plate 30, and then the fixing of the rotating shaft 17 and the pipe bracket 18, so that the working tube 5 can be fixed in the state of being released to the specified length.

[0029] At this point, the user can observe the tilt of the working tube 5 in the seawater, and then determine the direction and angle of the water flow impact deviation of the detector 2, the worktable 3, and the working tube 5. Then, the user can operate the control motor 12 through the control device 28 and the control circuit 29. When the control motor 12 is working, it can control the rotating table 8 to rotate to the designated position through the control shaft 13 and the connecting column 14, so that the control hole 10 on the rotating table 8 is aligned with the control port 6 at the designated position. In this way, the control in the working chamber 4 can also enter the control port 6 in the designated direction through the control chamber 9 and the control hole 10. The high-speed flow of control can push the sliding plug 26, and then make the sliding plug 26 and the sealing plate 27 move away from the control port 6. In this way, the air can smoothly leave the worktable 3 through the control port 6. This air jet can push the worktable 3 to counteract the impact force of the water flow, so that the worktable 3 can drive the detector 2 and the working tube 5 to a position vertically below the base 1 in the water. In this way, the release length of the working tube 5 is relatively equal to the depth of the detector 2, and the user can successfully complete the detection work of the ocean water at the designated depth.

[0030] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
