[0023] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0024] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, an automatic luminous position-indicating buoy device on water includes a buoy body for providing buoyancy so that the entire device floats on the sea surface, a power control component installed inside the buoy body, a light source component installed inside the buoy body and distributed around it, a mooring rope 5, and a buoy attachment 12.
[0025] The buoy body includes a main floating wood 14 and an acrylic light-transmitting plate. The light transmittance of the acrylic light-transmitting plate 13 is above 92%, and the light is soft and the vision is clear. The acrylic light-transmitting plate is installed on the top surface and the four sides of the main floating wood 14. The thickness of the acrylic light-transmitting plate 13 on the top surface and the acrylic light-transmitting plates 15 on the four sides are both 10 mm, which increases the light-transmitting area and increases the supporting strength of the side wood. The acrylic light-transmitting plate and the main floating wood 14 are locked by locking screws 9 to form an internal sealed environment, which can effectively prevent seawater immersion, protect the light source component and the power control component, and make the entire device float on the sea surface to provide guidance for the search work. The main floating wood 14 and the acrylic light-transmitting plate are used as the main materials of the buoy body, which achieves the lightweight requirements without affecting the brightness of the light.
[0026] The power control assembly includes a solar panel 4, a lithium battery 16 and a water-sensitive trigger switch 7. The solar panel 4 and the water-sensitive trigger switch 7 are located on the main floating wood 14. The lithium battery 16 is located inside the main floating wood 14. The solar panel 4 is connected to the lithium battery 16. The lithium battery 16 is connected to the light source assembly through the water-sensitive trigger switch 7 to form a loop. The water-sensitive trigger switch 7 automatically opens when it encounters water, and the light source assembly starts. The solar panel 4 increases the battery life of the lithium battery 16 when there is sunlight during the day, and can also charge the lithium battery 16.
[0027] The main body floating wood 14 fully considers safety and reliability, and is made of corrosion-resistant wooden materials. It has a light overall weight, long anti-corrosion and waterproofing time, is not easy to crack, and has increased fatigue resistance and pressure resistance. Two closed buoyancy compartments are designed in the middle to place lithium batteries 16 to supply LED light beads. The LED light beads have a luminous working time of ≥48h, which effectively improves the safety performance of the vehicle.
[0028] The light source assembly adopts 12 LED light beads 8, 2 on each short side of the main body driftwood 14, and 4 on each long side of the main body driftwood 14, for providing position light signals. The light emission form of the LED light beads 8 is frequency flashing, and the light color is red. The brightness of each lamp bead is 12000-14000mcd, and the wavelength / color temperature is between 620-625NM. The water-sensitive trigger switch 77 automatically turns on the light source assembly when it encounters water, and continuously provides position guidance for search personnel.
[0029] A water-sensitive switch cover 1 to prevent accidental touching is provided above the water-sensitive trigger switch 7, which is used to protect the water-sensitive trigger switch 7 and prevent the water-sensitive trigger switch 7 from being accidentally touched when it is hit by sea waves or rain; a water inlet hole is provided at the bottom of the water-sensitive switch cover 1, and seawater enters through the water inlet hole when the entire buoy device sinks.
[0030] The buoy attachment 12 is fixed on the vehicle, the main body driftwood 14 is placed on the buoy attachment 12 through the middle installation positioning hole 6, the mooring rope 5 is wrapped around the outside of the main body driftwood 14, one end of the mooring rope 5 is fixedly connected to the main body driftwood 14, and the other end of the main body driftwood 14 is fixedly connected to the buoy attachment 12. When the buoy attachment 12 sinks with the vehicle, the buoy body automatically detaches from the buoy attachment 12. The structural design with the installation positioning hole 6 improves the convenience of assembly, and the light source component that is automatically triggered when encountering water can cope with various changes in the sea, improving the safety of the amphibious vehicle sea test.
[0031] A support bar 11 is provided inside the main body floating wood 14 to support the internal space of the main body floating wood 14 .
[0032] A waterproof sealing strip 10 is provided between the acrylic light-transmitting plate and the main floating wood 14 .
[0033] The main body floating wood 14 is provided with a waterproof charging base 3, which is connected to the lithium battery 16 and is used to charge the lithium battery 16 when indoors.
[0034] The main body floating wood 14 is provided with a power switch 2, which is connected in series in the loop to control the on and off of the light source assembly.
[0035] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: after a vehicle is in distress at sea, the power switch 2 on the main floating wood 14 is turned on before the vehicle is launched into the water. After the vehicle is launched into the water, the entire device automatically detaches from the vehicle body and floats on the water surface due to the buoyancy, and the mooring rope 5 falls off and extends, always connecting the vehicle body and the entire device. Seawater enters from the water inlet, and the water-sensitive trigger switch 7 automatically turns on the light source component after encountering water, and the LED light-emitting lamp beads 8 emit red light, continuously providing location guidance for search personnel. After the vehicle goes ashore, the power switch 2 on the main floating wood 14 is turned off, and the mooring rope 5 is wrapped around the side of the main floating wood 14. When the lithium battery 16 is not in use, it can be charged through the waterproof charging base 3 or directly replaced to ensure sufficient power for the next use.
