Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of marine environmental monitoring technology, specifically to a marine data observation and acquisition device. Background Technology

[0002] Marine observation technology is an indispensable part of marine science. Through observation and detection technologies, we can gain in-depth understanding of information such as the marine environment and climate change. Marine observation technology is broadly divided into two types: remote sensing observation and on-site observation. A marine observation buoy is a marine observation station anchored in a specific sea area, used to observe marine meteorology and the marine environment at the sea surface. Traditional marine observation buoy mooring systems are usually single-point mooring systems. Single-point mooring consists of a pure anchor chain or a composite single-point mooring system of anchor chain and cable. It is mainly used to observe surface water temperature, surface salinity, and other elements. Its observation capabilities are limited to observing surface elements of the seawater, and it is difficult to observe marine elements below the sea surface.

[0003] Ocean buoys are mainly used to measure parameters such as temperature, salinity, and current velocity at the ocean surface. They are generally divided into floating and stationary types. Floating buoys are propelled by their own propellers and drift with the current to record discrete physical and chemical data, while stationary buoys are fixed on the sea surface to record various data. The new generation of buoys can achieve multi-parameter, continuous, and real-time observation. The buoy is equipped with various sensors such as light, wind speed, temperature, air pressure, salinity, and water quality. The main part of the system is equipped with sensors, signal acquisition and processing devices, communication devices, and power supply devices.

[0004] Korean invention patent application number KR1020150003227 discloses a buoy including a solar module structure for improving light efficiency and a real-time water environment monitoring method. The invention includes a buoy made of light-transmitting material, with a solar cell module inside. Multiple lenses are mounted on the upper part of the buoy to refract and disperse light. The buoy also contains a data acquisition device for monitoring environmental data. Once deployed in the sea, the solar cell module continuously powers the data acquisition device, enabling long-term, stable environmental data monitoring at sea. However, in existing technologies, the buoy receives uneven illumination while floating on the sea surface, resulting in low light energy conversion efficiency, which is detrimental to long-term stable monitoring. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a marine data observation and acquisition device with high acquisition efficiency and high stability.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention specifically provides the following technical solution: A marine data observation and acquisition device includes: a container housing interconnected photovoltaic modules and a data processing unit; the container includes an upper cover that allows light to reach the photovoltaic modules; and a protective component on the outside of the upper cover. The data processing unit is used for processing marine environmental data. The upper cover provides external protection for the photovoltaic modules, allowing natural sunlight to penetrate and be absorbed by the photovoltaic modules, converting it into electrical energy to continuously power the data processing unit. This enhances the duration of continuous monitoring and data acquisition at sea. The protective component on the outside of the upper cover reduces the probability of damage to the upper cover and also protects the photovoltaic modules.

[0007] Preferably, the protective assembly includes an assembly ring connected to the side of the container, a rotating ring rotatably connected to the outside of the assembly ring, and a refractive plate arranged around the upper end of the rotating ring. The refractive plate can deflect the light acting on the photovoltaic module. Under the action of sea airflow, multiple refractive plates can drive the rotating ring to rotate relative to the upper cover outside the assembly ring. Since the refractive plate can deflect external light into the upper cover, the refractive plate moving relative to the upper cover can continuously change the angle of light deflection, so that the photovoltaic module inside the upper cover receives light from different angles. On the one hand, this enhances the conversion efficiency of the photovoltaic module and extends the working time of the data processing device. On the other hand, because the photovoltaic module receives uniform illumination, it reduces the possibility of concentrated light hitting one side of the photovoltaic module, causing local overheating and failure, thus improving the safety of photoelectric conversion. Under the influence of sea air currents, multiple refractive plates move above and outside the upper cover, which can drive away flying organisms that land on the upper cover, preventing the container from tipping over or sinking due to excessive weight caused by organisms landing on it, thus improving the safety and stability of the collector when floating at sea.

[0008] Preferably, the upper cover is a downward-opening hemispherical shell, the refractive plate is an arc-shaped plate covering the outer side of the upper cover, and a flexible sheet is fixedly provided on the inner side of the refractive plate. The flexible sheet fits with the outer wall of the upper cover, and the extension direction of the flexible sheet is towards the inner center of the upper cover. The hemispherical upper cover helps light to penetrate from multiple directions and act on the photovoltaic module. It also helps to guide the impact of lateral airflow or water, reduce lateral interference, and improve floating stability. The flexible sheet inside the refractive plate can make elastic contact with the outer wall of the upper cover. When the refractive plate rotates, it drives the flexible sheet, which cleans the outer wall of the upper cover. Due to the flexible material of the flexible sheet, it will not scratch the upper cover, thus avoiding contaminants or mud adhering to the upper cover and affecting the light-gathering efficiency of the photovoltaic module. In order to reduce the shading ability of the flexible sheet to external light, the flexible sheet extends towards the inner center of the upper cover. When the container floats at sea and touches a reef or collides with other objects, the rotating ring causes the refractive plate and flexible sheet to shift relative to the upper cover. The flexible sheet forms an elastic support between the refractive plate and the upper cover. The deformation of the flexible sheet can absorb the vibration interference caused by the side impact. On the one hand, it reduces the possibility of damage to the data processing device and photovoltaic module inside the container, thus achieving protection. On the other hand, it reduces the possibility of the upper cover being damaged by pressure, further protecting the photovoltaic module, while reducing the maintenance cost of the upper cover. The flexible sheet extends towards the inner center of the upper cover, increasing the contact area with the sea airflow, improving the amplitude and frequency of the refracting plate's rotation relative to the upper cover, and enhancing the cleaning ability of the upper cover and the ability to drive away flying animals.

[0009] Preferably, blades are arranged around the side of the rotating ring. The blades, positioned to the side of the rotating ring, can contact seawater. When a lateral ocean current acts on the data collector, the blades can carry the rotating ring to rotate relative to the upper cover, converting the impact energy of the lateral ocean current on the container into the rotational kinetic energy of the rotating ring, the refractive plate, and the blades. This stabilizes the range of the data collector's floating on the sea surface, allowing it to collect and monitor data within a preset range, enhancing the effectiveness and accuracy of the data, and preventing the device from drifting too far and becoming difficult to recover.

[0010] Preferably, the container further includes a lower cover, and the upper cover and the lower cover are connected by threads at the opening. The lower cover has a flange on its inner upper side, on which the photovoltaic modules are mounted. The upper and lower covers can be assembled and disassembled by rotating at the threads, facilitating the removal of the internal photovoltaic modules and data processing devices, thus providing convenience.

[0011] Preferably, the photovoltaic module includes a mounting base on which photovoltaic panels are mounted. The photovoltaic panels are arranged at different heights and angles around the sides of the mounting base. The arrangement and angles of the photovoltaic panels allow them to receive light from more directions, ensuring high photoelectric conversion efficiency.

[0012] Preferably, the data processing device includes a data acquisition module and a communication module connected in conjunction. The data acquisition module is used to collect water environment data, and the communication module is used for data communication. The data processing device also includes a battery that powers the data acquisition module and the communication module, and the photovoltaic module can store the converted electrical energy in the battery. The data acquisition module calculates and analyzes the parameters of the ocean water body and remotely transmits the obtained data to a remote terminal through the communication module, realizing real-time observation and acquisition of the marine environment.

[0013] Preferably, the lower cover is a hemispherical shell with an upward-facing opening, and has a flow hole that allows water to enter. The data processing device can process the data of the water entering the lower cover. The water enters through the flow hole and is observed and processed by the data acquisition device. The hemispherical lower cover and upper cover are assembled to form a sphere, which makes it easy to adjust the attitude of the collector in the water by rotating and tilting, so as to quickly restore the balanced floating attitude and improve the floating stability of the collector.

[0014] Preferably, the assembly ring comprises two semi-circular rings, each with a connecting plate on its upper and lower end faces. The semi-circular rings are connected by nuts and bolts passing through the connecting plates. The two semi-circular rings are formed by nuts and bolts on the connecting plates located on the upper and lower end faces of the semi-circular rings, ensuring that the assembled whole has a continuous annular groove on its outer side. The rotating ring can be limited within the annular groove, ensuring that the rotating ring can rotate relative to the container.

[0015] Compared with existing technologies, this invention has the following advantages: the protective component applies continuously varying uniform light to the photovoltaic module through the refractive plate, improving photoelectric conversion efficiency while avoiding the possibility of local overheating of the photovoltaic module, thus improving photoelectric conversion stability; affected by airflow, the refractive plate rotating outside the upper cover can drive away birds, preventing the collector from sinking due to excessive weight or uneven loading, enhancing floating stability; the refractive plate can carry the flexible sheet to move on the outer wall of the hemispherical upper cover, realizing the cleaning of the upper cover and preventing contaminants from blocking the light collection range; the flexible sheet buffers and consumes the interference of lateral impacts on the collector through deformation energy, protecting the data processing device and photovoltaic module, and reducing maintenance costs caused by damage to the upper cover; the azimuth arrangement of the flexible sheet increases the contact surface with the airflow, further improving the cleaning ability of the upper cover and the ability to drive away flying animals; the blade arrangement can consume water flow impact along with the rotating ring, stabilizing the floating range of the collector and improving the accuracy and effectiveness of data collection. Therefore, this invention is a marine data observation and acquisition device with high acquisition efficiency and high stability. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0019] 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.

[0020] The concepts involved in this application will first be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the following descriptions of various concepts are only for the purpose of making the content of this application easier to understand and do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this application; furthermore, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other unless otherwise specified. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0021] See appendix Figure 1 -Appendix Figure 4 The marine data observation and acquisition device includes: a container 1, in which photovoltaic modules 2 and a data processing device 3 are connected to each other; the container 1 includes an upper cover 10, which allows light to act on the photovoltaic modules 2; a protective component 4 is provided on the outside of the upper cover 10; and the data processing device 3 is used for marine water environment data processing.

[0022] It should be noted that when container 1 is placed into the water, the upper cover 10 can float on the sea surface to ensure that natural sunlight can penetrate the upper cover 10 and be received by the photovoltaic module 2.

[0023] The upper cover 10 of the container 1 provides external protection for the photovoltaic module 2. External natural sunlight can penetrate the upper cover 10 and be absorbed by the photovoltaic module 2, and converted into electrical energy to provide continuous power to the data processing device 3, thereby enhancing the duration of continuous monitoring and data collection at sea. The protective component 4 forms protection on the outside of the upper cover 10, reducing the probability of damage to the upper cover 10, and also protecting the photovoltaic module 2.

[0024] The protective component 4 includes an assembly ring 40 connected to the side of the container 1. A rotating ring 41 is rotatably connected to the outside of the assembly ring 40. A refractive plate 51 is arranged around the upper end of the rotating ring 41. The refractive plate 51 can deflect the light acting on the photovoltaic module 2.

[0025] The assembly ring 40 has a concave annular groove on its outer side, and the rotating ring 41 is installed in the annular groove and can rotate freely relative to the assembly ring 40. The material of the rotating ring 41 includes, but is not limited to, rubber.

[0026] Under the influence of sea airflow, multiple refractive plates 51 can drive the rotating ring 41 to rotate relative to the upper cover 10 on the outside of the assembly ring 40. Since the refractive plates 51 can deflect external light upward into the upper cover 10, the refractive plates 51 moving relative to the upper cover 10 can continuously change the angle of light deflection, so that the photovoltaic module 2 inside the upper cover 10 receives light in different angle directions. On the one hand, this enhances the conversion efficiency of the photovoltaic module 2 and extends the working time of the data processing device 3. On the other hand, since the photovoltaic module 2 receives balanced illumination, it reduces the possibility of local overheating and failure caused by concentrated light illuminating one side of the photovoltaic module 2, thus improving the safety of photoelectric conversion. Under the influence of sea air currents, multiple refractive plates 51 move above and outside the upper cover 10, which can drive away flying organisms that land on the upper cover 10, preventing the container 1 from tipping over or sinking due to excessive weight caused by organisms landing on it, thus improving the safety and stability of the collector floating at sea.

[0027] The upper cover 10 is a downward-opening hemispherical shell. The refractive plate 51 is an arc-shaped plate that covers the outside of the upper cover 10. A flexible sheet 52 is fixedly provided on the inner side of the refractive plate 51. The flexible sheet 52 fits with the outer wall of the upper cover 10, and the extension direction of the flexible sheet 52 is towards the inner center of the upper cover 10. The hemispherical upper cover 10 helps light to penetrate from multiple directions and act on the photovoltaic module 2. It also helps to guide the impact of lateral airflow or water, reduce lateral interference, and improve floating stability. The flexible sheet 52 on the inner side of the refractive plate 51 can elastically contact the outer wall surface of the upper cover 10. When the refractive plate 51 rotates, it drives the flexible sheet 52, which cleans the outer wall surface of the upper cover 10. Due to the flexible material of the flexible sheet 52, it will not scratch the upper cover 10, thus avoiding contaminants or mud adhering to the upper cover 10 and affecting the light-gathering efficiency of the photovoltaic module 2. In order to reduce the shading ability of the flexible sheet 52 to external light, the flexible sheet 52 extends towards the inner center of the upper cover 10. When container 1 floats at sea and touches a reef or collides with other objects, the rotating ring 41 causes the refractive plate 51 and the flexible sheet 52 to shift relative to the upper cover 10. The flexible sheet 52 forms an elastic support between the refractive plate 51 and the upper cover 10. The deformation of the flexible sheet 52 can absorb the vibration interference caused by the side impact. On the one hand, it reduces the possibility of damage to the data processing device 3 and photovoltaic module 2 inside container 1, thus achieving protection. On the other hand, it reduces the possibility of the upper cover 10 being damaged by pressure, further protecting the photovoltaic module 2, while reducing the maintenance cost of the upper cover 10. The flexible sheet 52 extends towards the inner center of the upper cover 10, increasing the contact area with the sea airflow, improving the amplitude and frequency of the rotation of the refractive plate 51 relative to the upper cover 10, and enhancing the cleaning ability of the upper cover 10 and the ability to drive away flying animals.

[0028] The rotating ring 41 has blades 53 arranged around its side.

[0029] The blade 53 is positioned on the side of the rotating ring 41 and can come into contact with seawater. When the lateral ocean current acts on the collector, the blade 53 can carry the rotating ring 41 to rotate relative to the upper cover 10, converting the impact energy of the lateral ocean current on the container 1 into the rotational kinetic energy of the rotating ring 41, the refractor 51 and the blade 53. This stabilizes the range of the collector's floating on the sea surface, enabling the collector to collect and monitor data within a preset range, enhancing the effectiveness and accuracy of the data, and preventing the device from floating too far and being difficult to recover.

[0030] The container 1 also includes a lower cover 11. The upper cover 10 and the lower cover 11 are connected by threads at the opening. The lower cover 11 has a flange on the upper inner side, and the photovoltaic module 2 is installed on the flange.

[0031] The upper cover 10 and the lower cover 11 can be assembled and disassembled by rotating at the thread, so as to facilitate the removal of the internal photovoltaic module 2 and data processing device 3, which is convenient.

[0032] The photovoltaic module 2 includes a mounting base 20, on which photovoltaic panels 21 are mounted. The photovoltaic panels 21 are arranged at different heights and in different tilted positions around the side of the mounting base 20.

[0033] The mounting base 20 includes a circular base plate, a first base on the top of the base plate, and a second base on the top of the first base. Both the first base and the second base are cones with the smaller end pointing upwards. The first base has a first mounting surface arranged around its side, and the second base has a second mounting surface arranged around its side. Both the first mounting surface and the second mounting surface are inclined upwards away from the center of the base plate. The photovoltaic panel 21 is mounted on the first mounting surface and the second mounting surface to obtain light from different heights and directions.

[0034] It should be noted that both the flange and the base plate have mounting holes for threaded parts to pass through.

[0035] The surrounding arrangement and tilted posture of the photovoltaic panels 21 allow them to receive light from more directions, thus ensuring photoelectric conversion efficiency.

[0036] See appendix Figure 5 The data processing device 3 includes a data acquisition module 30 and a communication module 31 connected in cooperation. The data acquisition module 30 is used to collect water environment data, and the communication module 31 is used for data communication. The data processing device 3 also includes a battery 32 that powers the data acquisition module 30 and the communication module 31. The photovoltaic module 2 can store the converted electrical energy in the battery 32. The data processing unit also includes a microcomputer that can process the collected data. After the data acquisition module 30 collects water parameters, it converts and analyzes the data through the microcomputer, and the communication module 31 remotely transmits and stores the data.

[0037] The data processing device 3 also includes an antenna 33 on top, through which the communication module 31 transmits signals.

[0038] The data acquisition module 30 includes, but is not limited to, at least one of a flow sensor, a velocity sensor, and an oxygen sensor.

[0039] Because the battery 32 is quite heavy, it is placed at the bottom of the data processing device 3 to lower the overall center of gravity of the data collector, so as to ensure that the container 1 can remain balanced on the sea surface.

[0040] The data acquisition module 30 calculates and analyzes the parameters of the ocean water body and sends the obtained data to a remote terminal via the communication module 31, thereby realizing real-time observation and acquisition of the marine environment.

[0041] See appendix Figure 6 The lower cover 11 is a hemispherical shell with an upward opening. The lower cover 11 has a flow hole 6 that allows water to enter. The data processing device 3 can process the data of the water entering the lower cover 11. The water enters through the flow hole 6 and is observed and processed by the data acquisition device. A flow hole 6 is arranged around the lower cover 11. The flow hole 6 is a narrow slit hole, and the slit hole penetrates at an angle in a predetermined direction, so that the water entering the lower cover 11 forms a vortex-type flow. The lower cover 11 has an outlet 7 at the center of the bottom.

[0042] When the ocean currents act on the protective component 4, the blades 53, carrying the rotating ring 41, rotate to agitate the water. Since the lower cover 11 is hemispherical, the water can be guided downward along the outer wall of the lower cover 11. When the downward flowing water passes through the flow hole 6, it can form a downward vortex-shaped water flow inside the lower cover 11. On the one hand, the downward vortex-shaped water flow can stabilize the attitude of the lower cover 11 in the water, so that the collector is kept in the water in a vertical attitude, improving the collector's resistance to lateral ocean currents and preventing the collector from capsizing. On the other hand, the vortex-shaped water flow can better contact the inner wall of the lower cover 11, carrying the mud and pollutants attached to the inner wall and discharging them from the outlet 7, thus cleaning the inner wall of the lower cover 11 and reducing the difficulty of manual cleaning. When the acquisition module 30 collects water samples entering the lower cover 11, the vortex-shaped water flow can prevent small organisms and aquatic plants from approaching the acquisition module 30. That is, suspended objects are difficult to approach the acquisition module 30 under the guidance of the vortex-shaped water flow, which effectively ensures that the acquisition port of the acquisition module 30 is not blocked and improves the stability and accuracy of data acquisition.

[0043] The hemispherical lower cover 11 and upper cover 10 are assembled to form a sphere, which makes it easy for the container 1 to adjust the attitude of the collector in the water by rotating and tilting, so as to quickly restore the balanced floating attitude and help improve the floating stability of the collector.

[0044] The assembly ring 40 includes two semi-circular rings, each with a connecting plate on its upper and lower end faces. The semi-circular rings are connected by nuts and bolts passing through the connecting plates. The two semi-circular rings are connected by nuts and bolts on the connecting plates located on the upper and lower end faces of the semi-circular rings, ensuring that the assembled whole has a continuous annular groove on its outer side. The rotating ring 41 can be limited within the annular groove, ensuring that the rotating ring 41 can rotate relative to the container 1.
