[0043] The engine telegraph, as a ship's propulsion control device, is one of the most frequently operated pieces of equipment on the bridge. To achieve navigation and maneuverability, it is usually used in conjunction with the steering gear; the engine telegraph controls the ship's forward and backward movement, while the steering gear controls its steering. Engine telegraphs, steering gear, and other equipment all need to be housed in the bridge. Especially with the increasing number of main propulsion engines, the number and structural complexity of engine telegraphs and steering gear need to be further increased, further reducing the available space in the bridge for other necessary equipment. This is particularly true for applications such as speedboats, small boats, and unmanned vessels, where multiple main propulsion engines are installed, making the space occupied by the control equipment in the bridge especially critical.

[0044] In view of this, refer to Figures 1 to 7 This application discloses a marine vehicle telegraph that can solve at least one of the above-mentioned defects.

[0045] Reference Figures 1 to 7 A marine engine clock includes a propulsion base 1, multiple propulsion control mechanisms 2, a slewing base 3, a slewing control mechanism 4, and a disengagement mechanism 5.

[0046] The propulsion control mechanism 2 is adjustablely mounted on the propulsion base 1, and each propulsion control mechanism 2 controls and connects to a ship's main propulsion engine. The propulsion base 1 is rotatably connected to a slewing base 3, and a slewing control mechanism 4 is mounted on the slewing base 3 and connected to the propulsion base 1. The slewing control mechanism 4 is used to control and connect to the ship's slewing mechanism. The disengagement mechanism 5 includes a first disengagement part 50 and a second disengagement part 51. At least one propulsion control mechanism 2 is connected to the first disengagement part 50, and at least one propulsion control mechanism 2 is connected to the second disengagement part 51. The disengagement mechanism 5 has a first state and a second state. In the first state, the first disengagement part 50 is connected to the second disengagement part 51 so that at least two propulsion control mechanisms 2 can be adjusted synchronously.

[0047] It should be noted that this embodiment takes the example of setting two propulsion control mechanisms 2 on the propulsion base 1, meaning that the corresponding ship has two one-to-one propulsion main engines. The two propulsion control mechanisms 2 are symmetrically arranged on opposite sides of the propulsion base 1 in the horizontal direction. One propulsion control mechanism 2 is connected to the first disengagement part 50, and the other propulsion control mechanism 2 is connected to the second disengagement part 51, so as to realize the synchronous adjustment and control of the two propulsion control mechanisms 2. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the number of propulsion control mechanisms 2 on the corresponding propulsion base 1 can be flexibly increased according to the number of ship propulsion main engines, which will not be elaborated here.

[0048] By integrating multiple propulsion control mechanisms 2 into the propulsion base 1, and then combining the slewing base 3 with the slewing control mechanism 4 with the propulsion base 1, a ship engine telegraph with the functions of controlling multiple ship propulsion main engines and controlling ship slewing is formed. On this basis, at least two propulsion control mechanisms 2 are connected by a disengagement mechanism 5, which is conducive to flexibly controlling each propulsion main engine synchronously or independently as needed, improving the flexibility and convenience of ship control, and reducing the space occupation of the ship's bridge control room.

[0049] In some embodiments, refer to Figures 1 to 5 The propulsion control mechanism 2 includes a propulsion shaft 20, a drive gear 21, and a first position sensor 22. The propulsion shaft 20 is rotatably connected to the propulsion base 1, the drive gear 21 is sleeved on the propulsion shaft 20, and the first position sensor 22 is located on the propulsion base 1 and meshes with the drive gear 21. The propulsion shaft 20 includes multiple propulsion positions in its own rotation direction. In response to the rotation of the propulsion shaft 20 and the drive gear 21, the first position sensor 22 is configured to sense and output different position control signals.

[0050] Reference Figure 5 In this embodiment, the first position sensor 22 has a driven gear 220 that meshes with the driving gear 21. The driving gear 21 can rotate synchronously with the rotation of the propulsion shaft 20. The first position sensor 22 senses the gear control signal corresponding to the rotation of the propulsion shaft 20 through the driven gear 220 rotating with the driving gear 21, thereby facilitating the output of the corresponding gear control signal. The sensing output principle of the first position sensor 22 is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0051] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 The propulsion base 1 also has a first end cap 11 and a second end cap 12 corresponding to two propulsion control mechanisms 2. The first end cap 11 is connected to the propulsion base 1 to enclose the corresponding propulsion control mechanism 2 within the space enclosed by the first end cap 11 and the propulsion base 1. The second end cap 12 is connected to the propulsion base 1 to enclose the corresponding propulsion control mechanism 2 within the space enclosed by the second end cap 12 and the propulsion base 1.

[0052] Two propulsion shafts 20 are coaxially rotatably mounted on the propulsion base 1. The end of the propulsion shaft 20 corresponding to the first end cover 11 that is away from the propulsion base 1 is rotatably connected to the first end cover 11, and the end of the propulsion shaft 20 corresponding to the second end cover 12 that is away from the propulsion base 1 is rotatably connected to the second end cover 12.

[0053] The propulsion control mechanism 2 also includes adjustment handles 10. Two adjustment handles 10 are provided corresponding to the two propulsion shafts 20. The adjustment handle 10 corresponding to one propulsion shaft 20 and the first end cover 11 is rotatably connected to the first end cover 11 and rotates synchronously with the propulsion shaft 20. The adjustment handle 10 corresponding to the other propulsion shaft 20 and the second end cover 12 is rotatably connected to the second end cover 12 and rotates synchronously with the propulsion shaft 20. The two adjustment handles 10 extend upwards along the height direction of the propulsion base 1 to facilitate gripping and rotation by the operator. A first disengagement part 50 and a second disengagement part 51 are correspondingly located between the two adjustment handles 10 along the axial direction of the propulsion shaft 20.

[0054] Two propulsion control mechanisms 2 are arranged along the axial direction of the propulsion shaft 20 and are connected to the propulsion base 1 above the propulsion shaft 20 via a first disengagement part 50 and a second disengagement part 51. This helps to reduce the space occupied in the ship's bridge and facilitates the quick separation or docking of the first disengagement part 50 and the second disengagement part 51 by the operators, thereby improving the convenience of synchronous or independent operation of each ship's propulsion main engine.

[0055] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The propulsion control mechanism 2 also includes a first limiting component 23, which includes a first limiting disc 230, a first limiting member 231, and a first mounting member 232. The first limiting disc 230 is fixedly sleeved on the propulsion shaft 20. The first limiting member 231 is disposed on the first limiting disc 230 along the axial direction of the propulsion shaft 20. The first mounting member 232 is disposed on the propulsion base 1 and is rotatably connected to the corresponding propulsion shaft 20 through a built-in propulsion bearing 200 and a propulsion shaft cover 201. The propulsion shaft cover 201 is used to press and fix the propulsion bearing 200. The first mounting member 232 has a first limiting hole 2320 for the first limiting member 231 to pass through. The first limiting hole 2320 extends along the movement path of the first limiting member 231 so as to limit the rotation angle of the first limiting member 231 and the first limiting disc 230 through the hole wall of the first limiting hole 2320.

[0056] The first limiting member 231, in conjunction with the first limiting hole 2320 on the first mounting member 232, facilitates rotational limiting for propulsion control, thereby improving the accuracy and stability of control operations. Furthermore, in some embodiments, refer to... Figure 3 and Figure 4The first limiting component 231 includes an adjustable adjusting screw that works in conjunction with the limiting screw. When the propulsion shaft 20 is rotated, the limiting screw moves within the first limiting hole 2320. When it reaches the limiting position, the adjusting screw can lift the limiting screw to achieve the effect of stopping the limiting screw. The zero-position stop origin can be adjusted by rotating the adjusting screw. The adjustment principle of the stop origin is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0057] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 The first disengagement part 50 includes a first connecting seat 500 connected to the adjusting handle 10 and a retractable connector 501 disposed on the first connecting seat 500. The second disengagement part 51 includes a second connecting seat 510 connected to the adjusting handle 10, and the second connecting seat 510 has a connector hole 5100 facing the corresponding connector 501. In the first state, the connector 501 is inserted into the connector hole 5100. The connector 501 can be configured as a telescopic pin structure, etc. In the first state, after the connector 501 is inserted into the connector hole 5100, the insertion position can be fixed to maintain the connection between the first disengagement part 50 and the second disengagement part 51. The fixing method of the connector 501 can be a slot fixing, a buckle fixing, etc., which will not be described in detail here.

[0058] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 The first connecting seat 500 and the corresponding adjusting handle 10 can be integrally formed, which is conducive to quick assembly. Similarly, the second connecting seat 510 and the corresponding adjusting handle 10 can also be integrally formed, which will not be described in detail here.

[0059] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 6 The propulsion control mechanism 2 also includes a first gear feel component 24, which is disposed on the propulsion base 1 and used to abut against the first limit plate 230. In response to the rotation of the propulsion shaft 20, the first gear feel component 24 is configured to roll and rub against the first limit plate 230 when switching propulsion gears.

[0060] Specifically, the first gear shift feel component 24 includes a first frame 240 and a first roller 241 rotatably mounted on the first frame 240. The corresponding first frame 240 is mounted on the corresponding first end cover 11 or second end cover 12. The first roller 241 is positioned facing the corresponding first limiting plate 230. A groove structure is preset on the first limiting plate 230. During the process of rotating the adjustment handle 10 and adjusting the shift gear, the first roller 241 can roll into the corresponding groove of the first limiting plate 230 at the corresponding shift gear, thereby obtaining the gear shift feel through rolling friction. By setting an adjustment screw on the shift base 1, the operator can adjust the rolling friction intensity between the first roller 241 and the first limiting plate 230 by rotating the adjustment screw, thereby adjusting the strength of the feedback gear shift feel.

[0061] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 7 The propulsion control mechanism 2 also includes a first damping component 25, which is disposed on the propulsion base 1 and abuts against the first limiting disk 230. In response to the rotation of the propulsion shaft 20, the first damping component 25 is configured to slide against the first limiting disk 230.

[0062] The first damping assembly 25 includes a second frame 250 and a first damping block 251. The corresponding second frame 250 is mounted on the corresponding first end cap 11 or second end cap 12, and the first damping block 251 faces and fits against the corresponding first limiting plate 230. The first damping block 251 can be made of wear-resistant nylon material. During the process of rotating the adjusting handle 10 and adjusting the push position, the first damping block 251 rubs against the side of the first limiting plate 230, thereby obtaining a damping feel. By setting an adjusting screw on the push base 1, the operator can adjust the friction intensity between the first damping block 251 and the first limiting plate 230 by rotating the adjusting screw, thereby adjusting the strength of the feedback damping feel.

[0063] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The slewing control mechanism 4 includes a slewing shaft 40 and a second position sensor 41. The slewing shaft 40 passes through the propulsion base 1 and the slewing base 3, and is fixedly connected to the propulsion base 1 and rotatably connected to the slewing base 3. The second position sensor 41 is disposed on the slewing base 3 and is connected to the slewing shaft 40. In response to the rotation of the slewing shaft 40, the second position sensor 41 is configured to sense and output the rotation angle of the slewing shaft 40.

[0064] Reference Figure 1 A rotary disk 42 is also fitted around the outer periphery of the rotary shaft 40, and the rotary disk 42 is rotatably positioned between the rotary base 3 and the propulsion base 1. Rotation indicator marks can be provided on the rotary disk 42 for operator identification. Furthermore, a panel 6 is provided on the rotary base 3, and rotation scale lines can be correspondingly set on the panel 6 to indicate rotation parameters. In some embodiments, the panel 6 can also be equipped with a display screen, control buttons, indicator lights, and other components, which can be flexibly adjusted as needed to diversify the control functions on the panel 6.

[0065] It should be noted that the scale lines in this embodiment can be made of printed film, backlit light-emitting film, etc., which will not be described in detail here.

[0066] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The second position sensor 41 is configured as a magnetic encoder and is arranged along the axial direction of the rotation shaft 40, that is, the second position sensor 41 is located at the base of the rotation shaft 40. Correspondingly, the end of the rotation shaft 40 facing the second position sensor 41 is provided with a magnetic body 410 for the second position sensor 41 to sense and engage. By using a magnetic encoder, the second position sensor 41 can sense the rotation data of the rotation shaft 40 even when separated from it, avoiding wear and interference caused by the rotation of the rotation shaft 40, thus ensuring the stability and accuracy of rotation sensing.

[0067] In addition, refer to Figure 1 The rotating base 3 is also equipped with a control module 7. In order to facilitate wiring and heat dissipation, the control module 7 can be set at the bottom of the rotating base 3. The control module 7 provides signal connection between the second position sensor 41 and the first position sensor 22 and outputs control signals. Its control principle is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0068] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 The rotary shaft 40 is provided with a wiring hole 402 along its axial direction. The wires of the propulsion control mechanism 2 can extend through the wiring hole 402 to the control module 7, realizing the power supply and signal output of the propulsion control mechanism 2. This is beneficial for realizing diversified electronic control, etc. It is understood that in some embodiments, the propulsion shaft 20 can also be provided with a through hole for the wires to pass through, to realize power supply, such as when the gear display function is set on the adjustment handle 10, etc., which will not be described in detail here.

[0069] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The rotation control mechanism 4 also includes a second limiting component 43, which includes a second limiting disc 430, a second limiting member 431, and a second mounting member 432. The second limiting disc 430 is fixedly sleeved on the rotation shaft 40. The second limiting member 431 is disposed on the second limiting disc 430 along the axial direction of the rotation shaft 40; the second mounting member 432 is disposed on the rotation base 3 and is rotatably connected to the corresponding rotation shaft 40 through a built-in rotation bearing 400 and a rotation shaft cover 401. The rotation shaft cover 401 is used to press and fix the rotation bearing 400. Similar to the structure of the first limiting component 23, the second mounting member 432 also has a second limiting hole 4320 for the second limiting member 431 to pass through. The second limiting hole 4320 extends along the movement path of the second limiting member 431 so as to limit the rotation angle of the second limiting member 431 and the second limiting disc 430 through the hole wall of the second limiting hole 4320.

[0070] The second limiting member 431, in conjunction with the second limiting hole 4320 on the second mounting member 432, facilitates providing a rotation limit for rotation control, thereby improving the accuracy and stability of the control operation. Furthermore, in some embodiments, refer to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 The second limiting component 431 may also include an adjustable screw used in conjunction with the limiting screw. When the rotary shaft 40 is rotated, the limiting screw moves within the second limiting hole 4320. When it reaches the limiting position, the adjusting screw can lift the limiting screw to achieve the effect of stopping the limiting screw. The zero-position stop origin can be adjusted by rotating the adjusting screw. The adjustment principle of the stop origin is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0071] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 The slewing control mechanism 4 also includes a second gear feel component 44, which is disposed on the slewing base 3 and used to abut against the second limit plate 430. In response to the rotation of the slewing shaft 40, the second gear feel component 44 is configured to roll and rub against the second limit plate 430 when switching rotation angles.

[0072] Specifically, the second gear shift feel component 44 includes a third frame 440 and a second roller 441 rotatably mounted on the third frame 440. The third frame 440 is mounted on the rotating base 3, and the second roller 441 is positioned facing the second limiting plate 430. A groove structure is preset on the second limiting plate 430. When the adjusting handle 10 is rotated and the rotating shaft 40 is rotated, the second roller 441 can roll into the corresponding groove of the second limiting plate 430 at the corresponding rotation angle, thereby obtaining the gear shift feel through rolling friction. By setting an adjusting screw on the rotating base 3, the operator can adjust the rolling friction intensity of the second roller 441 and the second limiting plate 430 by rotating the adjusting screw, thereby adjusting the strength of the gear shift feel.

[0073] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 7 The slewing control mechanism 4 also includes a second damping component 45, which is disposed on the slewing base 3 and abuts against the second limiting disk 430. In response to the rotation of the slewing shaft 40, the second damping component 45 is configured to slide against the second limiting disk 430.

[0074] The second damping assembly 45 includes a fourth frame 450 and a second damping block 451. The fourth frame 450 is mounted on the rotating base 3, and the second damping block 451 faces and fits against the second limiting plate 430. The second damping block 451 can be made of wear-resistant nylon material. During the rotation of the adjusting handle 10 and adjustment of the rotation angle, the second damping block 451 rubs against the side of the second limiting plate 430, thereby obtaining a damping feel. By setting an adjusting screw on the rotating base 3, the operator can adjust the friction intensity of the second damping block 451 and the second limiting plate 430 by rotating the adjusting screw, thereby adjusting the strength of the feedback damping feel.
