[0002] The whistle is an important sound device equipped on the ship, which is generally installed on the mast. Its working principle is to drive the sound device inside the whistle by connecting the daily compressed air on the ship to produce a specific frequency and volume of ringing sound and to propagate.
[0003] The ship operator can control the whistle by pulling the whistle handle or pressing the whistle button to control the opening and closing of the mechanical valve or the electromagnetic valve in the whistle, thereby controlling the on-off of the compressed air and the ringing of the whistle. Generally, the whistle handle is installed on the ceiling of the ship's bridge, and the handle is connected with the mechanical valve of the whistle through a steel wire cable. Since the distance from the mast to the bridge is long and the resistance is large, and a certain torque is required to open the mechanical valve itself, the operation of the traditional whistle handle is relatively laborious.
