Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of ship piloting devices, and more specifically, particularly relates to a piloting device used for ensuring safe navigation of ships in foggy weather. Background Art

[0002] Ship is a general term for various vessels. A ship is a means of transportation that can sail or anchor in waters for transportation or operations. During navigation, in order to facilitate the detection and avoidance of obstacles in the waterway, a corresponding pilot device capable of lighting is needed. It can be installed on the bow side of the ship as a lamp and illuminate the waterway to pilot the ship.

[0003] However, when the existing piloting devices for ship navigation are used, they are mostly directly fixed on one side of the bow for installation. The fluctuation of the water surface during the navigation of the ship will cause the ship to move accordingly, and the lighting installed on the bow side will also change the illumination angle. The illumination position cannot be changed due to the inability to perform automatic adjustment, which will affect the normal navigation of the ship. In addition, there is a lack of effective fog removal operations in foggy days, which will affect the normal use of the piloting device.

[0004] Therefore, in view of this, research and improvement are carried out on the existing structure and deficiencies, and a pilot device is provided to ensure safe navigation of ships in foggy days, in order to achieve a more practical purpose. Summary of the invention

[0010] Furthermore, a half gear is coaxially installed at the bottom end of the paddle wheel, and a full gear is also installed inside the water tank. The full gear is meshed with the half gear, and the diameter of the half gear is larger than the diameter of the full gear. A guide rod is rotatably connected to the outer side of the movable seat. There are two guide rods in total, and the two guide rods are respectively installed at the top and bottom ends of the movable seat.

Since the pilot light has a variable color temperature structure, it can be used under normal conditions by irradiating with white light. In foggy days and other conditions with low visibility, the color temperature of the pilot light can be adjusted to make the pilot light turn into yellow light for illumination, thereby achieving a more practical purpose.

[0014] 2. When the guide rod performs a reciprocating swing operation, it can synchronously drive the seat body installed in the guide rod to perform a synchronous rotation operation, and synchronously start the pump body B installed on the outside of the connecting pipe to draw the water flow in the water tank into the sprinkler installed on the outside of the seat body to quickly spray out the drawn water flow to quickly spray and clear the fog during the ship's movement, thereby achieving a more practical purpose and allowing the pilot light to have better performance during practical use.

[0015] 3. When the pilot light is in use, the light emitted by the pilot light can be quickly detected by the light sensor installed on the outside of the base.

At the same time, the heater can be used to accelerate the removal of fog on the surface of the pilot light cover by irradiating the pilot light. It can also effectively accelerate the situation when there is water vapor in the pilot light, thereby achieving a more practical purpose. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0023] When in use: First, when a ship is performing safe navigation operations, a corresponding pilot device is needed in order to enable safer navigation. At this time, the base 1 can be fixedly connected to the mounting plate 2 and the position where the pilot device needs to be installed in the ship by using its outer side, and the base 1 can be installed to the outer position of the ship by passing the fixing bolt through the through hole opened in the mounting plate 2 installed on the outer side of the base 1 to perform assembly and limit work; Then, when piloting work is needed, the height of the moving seat 7 slidably connected to the base 1 can be adjusted by starting the electric push rod 6 installed in the base 1, and the height of the moving seat 7 can be adjusted to drive the pilot light 12 installed on the inner side of the side plate 11 to be adjusted to a suitable height position for placement; Then, when the ship needs to illuminate the channel it is sailing in during navigation, the navigation light 12 installed on the inner side of the side plate 11 can be started to illuminate to assist the ship in normal navigation operations in the channel, and the initial position of the navigation light 12 can be determined by starting the motor 13 installed on the outer side of the side plate 11 to rotate and drive the navigation light 12. Since the navigation light 12 is a variable color temperature structure, it can be used under normal conditions by irradiating with white light of the navigation light 12. When the visibility is low in foggy days, the color temperature of the navigation light 12 can be adjusted to make the navigation light 12 turn into yellow light for irradiation, thereby achieving a more practical purpose. When the pilot light 12 is in use, the level 5 installed on the top of the base 1 and the altimeter 8 installed on the outside of the moving base 7 can be used to synchronously detect the direction and height of the pilot light 12.

In foggy days and other conditions with low visibility, the counterweight 9 installed at the bottom of the telescopic tube 28 can be thrown into the water, and then the pump body A16 installed at the top of the water tank 15 can be started to pump seawater into the inner position of the water tank 15 through the telescopic tube 28 and the pump pipe 27. When the seawater enters the water tank 15, the paddle wheel 17 installed in the water tank 15 can be driven to rotate. When the paddle wheel 17 rotates, the half gear 18 installed at the bottom of the paddle wheel 17 and the full gear 19 installed at the top of the guide rod 20 can be meshed and driven to drive the guide rod 20 to swing back and forth.
