Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of aerostats, and in particular relates to a dual-mode weather balloon and a marking method. Background Art

[0002] The dual-mode weather balloon is a new type of sounding balloon. Its main structure consists of a double-layer balloon, an inner sphere and an outer sphere. Natural rubber is generally used as the main material and various additives are added to make the balloon skin. It is filled with hydrogen or helium with a density less than that of air to gain buoyancy and rise into the air. When in use, the buoyancy generated by the inflation of the outer sphere provides the system with buoyancy power and carries the detection instrument to the preset detection height. After the outer sphere explodes, the buoyancy generated by the inflation of the inner sphere is in balance with the system's own weight, and the detection instrument continues to be carried for floating and level drift detection. Compared with traditional conventional sounding balloons that only have an ascending stage for detection, the dual-mode balloon can achieve three-stage detection of "ascending-level drifting-descending" through a single release, greatly improving the detection efficiency.

[0003] In order to make the buoyancy generated by the buoyant gas filled in the inner ball after the outer ball explodes and the system's own weight reach a buoyancy balance so that the dual-mode weather balloon can float at the set height for a sufficient time to complete the detection experiment, the inflation amount value needs to be calculated based on the weight of the inner ball, the weight of the outer ball and other data before releasing the balloon, so as to accurately control the inflation amount of the balloon. The prior art generally uses manual writing to record the above important data, inputs the data into the corresponding calculation software to calculate the inflation amount value during inflation, and manually seals the balloon handle after inflation is completed. Since multiple links from balloon production to use require manual operation, errors are very likely to occur, which is not conducive to accurately controlling the inflation amount of the dual-mode weather balloon. It is very easy for the balloon to fail to release, fail to rise to the set height, rise above the set height, and fail to maintain a sufficient working time at the set height, resulting in the failure of the detection experiment.

[0020] Unless otherwise defined, all professional terms used below have the same meanings as those generally understood by those skilled in the art. The professional terms used herein are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] Unless otherwise specified, various raw materials, reagents, instruments and equipment used in the present invention can be purchased from the market or prepared by existing methods.

[0022] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, Figure 1 The schematic diagram of the structure of the dual-mode weather balloon provided in the embodiment of the present application is shown. Figure 2 The structure diagram of the inflation nozzle provided in the embodiment of the present application is shown. Figure 3The schematic diagram of the structure of the base provided by the embodiment of the present application is shown. The dual-mode weather balloon provided by the embodiment of the present application includes an outer ball 200 and an inner ball 300 nested in the outer ball 200. In addition, it also includes an inflation nozzle 100, which is fixedly connected to the inner ball 300 and the outer ball 200 respectively, and can be used to inflate the inner ball 300 and the outer ball 200 separately. When used specifically, the inflation device is connected to the inflation nozzle 100, and the inner ball 300 and the outer ball 200 are inflated through the inflation nozzle 100. After the inflation is completed, the inflation device is separated from the inflation nozzle 100, and the inflation nozzle 100 can be automatically sealed, so that there is no need to make additional sealing to the outer ball 200 and the inner ball 300.

[0023] Specifically, the dual-mode weather balloon provided in the embodiment of the present application mainly includes an inner ball 300, an outer ball 200 and an inflation nozzle 100. The inner ball 300 is nested in the outer ball 200, the handles of the inner ball 300 and the outer ball 200 overlap and are distributed at the same end, and the tails are placed at the other end. The longitudinal directions of the inner ball 300 and the outer ball 200 are placed in parallel to avoid horizontal entanglement. When the inflation nozzle 100 is configured, the handles of the inner ball 300 and the outer ball 200 are tied to the inflation nozzle 100, and the inflation nozzle 100 is provided with two inflation inlets that do not interfere with each other, and the inner ball 300 and the outer ball 200 can be inflated respectively.

[0024] In the specific configuration, the inflation nozzle 100 includes a support seat 120 fixedly connected to the inner ball 300 and the outer ball 200, respectively, and a valve assembly 110 arranged in the support seat 120; wherein the valve assembly 110 includes an inner ball inflation valve 111 and an outer ball inflation valve 112 arranged side by side; the outer ball inflation valve 112 is used to supply air to the outer ball 200; the inner ball inflation valve 111 is used to supply air to the inner ball 300; The end of the support seat 120 inserted into the inner ball 300 is provided with an air outlet connected to the inner ball inflation valve 111; the side wall of the support seat 120 between the inner ball 300 and the outer ball 200 is provided with an inflation channel connected to the outer ball inflation valve 112; The dual-mode weather balloon also includes a sign 130 for identifying the dual-mode weather balloon information, and the sign 130 is fixed on the support 120. The dual-mode weather balloon information at least includes the weight and production date of the dual-mode weather balloon. In addition, the sign 130 is a sign 130 that can be read and written by a computer. Therefore, the information of the dual-mode weather balloon can be obtained by reading the sign 130.

[0025] For example, the identification plate 130 may be a QR code or a bar code. The identification plate 130 is mainly used when the balloon is released. The meteorological station user can use the user-side inflation calculation software to automatically pick up the balloon related parameters by scanning the code and automatically calculate the inflation volume of the inner ball 300 and the outer ball 200.

[0026] When the information is specifically identified, an information identification device can be used to identify the balloon. The information identification device mainly includes a weighing module, a production end information configuration pickup module, and an output identification module. Among them, the function of the weighing module is to weigh the weight of the balloon. Specifically, an electronic scale with a transmission function can be used. The number of electronic scales can be set to 2, and the inner ball 300 and the outer ball 200 can be weighed respectively by two electronic scales, so that the inner ball 300 and the outer ball 200 can be weighed at the same time. The function of the production end information configuration pickup module is to obtain information such as the production batch, production date, product name, specification model, upper and lower weight limits, etc. of the balloon, and can pick up the weight information of the balloon of the weighing module. In addition, the production end information configuration pickup module can also determine whether the weight of the balloon meets the requirements, and then give instructions to the output identification module. The function of the identification module is to output the identification information of the balloon related information according to the judgment instruction of the production end information configuration pickup module, and specifically, printing, spraying, etc. can be used. Exemplarily, when the weight of the balloon meets the requirements, the identification information is output; otherwise, no action is taken.

[0027] It can be seen from the above description that the dual-mode weather balloon provided in the embodiment of the present application has the following advantages: 1. Use uniformly positioned and sized labels with clear patterns and words to record the production date, weight, batch and other information of balloons. All balloons will automatically pick up and mark the corresponding information data during production. When users use them, they can clearly and standardizedly obtain the required information by reading the labels, ensuring that the data is accurate. This can effectively improve the efficiency of labeling, use efficiency and the success rate of balloon release, which is conducive to improving user experience and satisfaction.

[0028] 2. Users no longer need to manually input balloon weight information. Instead, they can use scanning to automatically pick up balloon weight information and automatically calculate the inflation volume. This improves operational efficiency on the one hand, and more importantly, avoids human error in input, improves the accuracy of inflation volume, and thus increases the success rate of balloon launch.

[0029] 3. During the information-based identification process, balloon information can be electronically collected throughout the process. Relevant inflation parameters can also be collected synchronously during user use. All data can be traced, which provides excellent data support for statistical analysis of balloon quality and evaluation and improvement of business quality.

[0030] 5. The present invention adopts an integrated molding method of ion membrane deposition or thermal sensitization to prepare the inner layer of the floating balloon, and there are no defects such as splicing defects and welding defects.

[0031] 4. The present invention provides an identification plate on the inflation nozzle of the dual-mode weather balloon, so that various information of the balloon, such as production date, weight, batch, etc., can be directly obtained by scanning the identification plate when in use.

[0032] 5. The present invention directly sets an inflation nozzle 100 on the dual-mode weather balloon, and inflates the balloon through the inflation nozzle 100. After the inflation is completed, the balloon can be directly sealed through the inflation nozzle 100, so there is no need to bundle and seal the inflated balloon, thereby improving the accuracy and convenience of inflation control.

[0033] Continue to refer Figure 2 and Figure 3 The support seat 120 provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a base 122 and a cover 121 buckled on the base 122. The base 122 and the cover 121 enclose a space for accommodating the valve assembly. When the valve assembly is assembled, the valve assembly can be fixed in the accommodating space enclosed by the base 122 and the cover 121. In addition, when the support seat 120 is connected to the inner ball 300 and the outer ball 200, the base 122 is used to be fixedly connected to the outer ball 200, and the cover 121 is used to be fixedly connected to the inner ball 300.

[0034] In the specific configuration, the outlet end of the inner ball inflation door 111 is arranged at one end thereof, and the outlet port of the outer ball inflation door 112 is arranged at its side wall. Specifically, the side wall of the outer ball inflation door 112 is provided with an outlet gap. When the inner ball inflation door 111 and the outer ball inflation door 112 are matched with the support seat 120, an outlet hole matched with the outlet end of the inner ball inflation door 111 is provided on the cover body 121, and gas can enter the outlet hole through the outlet end of the inner ball inflation door 111, and enter the inner ball 300 through the outlet hole to inflate the inner ball 300. In addition, there is an inflation channel between the cover body 121 and the base 122, which is connected with the outlet gap of the outer ball inflation door 112, and the inflation channel is located between the inner ball 300 and the outer ball 200. When the outer ball 200 is inflated, the gas can enter the accommodation space through the gas outlet gap of the outer ball inflation door 112, and enter the inflation channel through the accommodation space, and finally inflate the outer ball 200 through the inflation channel. The inflation channel can be a gap between the cover 121 and the base 122, or a hole-shaped channel opened on the side walls of the cover 121 and the base 122.

[0035] In addition, when the identification plate 130 is provided, the base 122 of the support seat 120 is partially exposed outside the outer sphere 200, and the identification plate 130 is provided at the portion of the base 122 exposed outside the outer sphere 200, so that the identification plate 130 can be directly obtained outside the dual-mode weather balloon.

[0036] In a specific possible implementation, when the base 122 and the cover 121 are specifically connected, the base 122 and the cover 121 are fixedly connected by snap-fitting, thereby avoiding air leakage and cross-flow caused by the unsealed screw holes when using screw connection, and at the same time, greatly simplifying the operation and improving the assembly efficiency. When the base 122 and the cover 121 are connected by snap-fitting, there is a gap between the base 122 and the cover 121 only at the matching end faces and the snap-fitting position, and there is no gap on the part of the structure where the cover 121 is inserted into the inner ball 300, thereby avoiding the communication between the accommodation space and the inner ball 300 and avoiding the occurrence of cross-flow.

[0037] Continue to refer Figure 2 and Figure 3 The upper end of the base 122 provided in the embodiment of the present application is a cylinder with a cavity inside, which is connected to the balloon handle and is used to bundle the sealed outer ball 200. The lower end of the cylinder is connected to the inflation device to achieve positioning and matching. According to the structure, the base 122 can be divided into a main body 1221 (cylinder) and a protruding structure 1222 arranged on the side of the main body 1221 away from the cover body 121, wherein the side of the protruding structure 1222 away from the main body 1221 is a vertical positioning surface. When the base 122 cooperates with the inflation device, the protruding structure 1222 is inserted into the inflation device, and the base 122 and the inflation device are vertically positioned through the vertical positioning surface. In addition, the cavity in the base 122 extends into the raised structure 1222. In addition, a first inflation hole 1225 and a second inflation hole 1226 are provided on the raised structure 1222 to cooperate with the inner ball inflation door 111 and the outer ball inflation door 112, so that the inflation equipment can inflate the inner ball inflation door 111 and the outer ball inflation door 112.

[0038] When the identification plate 130 is set, the identification plate 130 is set on the body 1221 of the base 122 or the protruding structure 1222, and only enough space is needed to set the identification plate 130 and make the identification plate 130 exposed, so as to facilitate the subsequent reading of the data of the dual-mode weather balloon.

[0039] In addition, the base 122 provided in the embodiment of the present application also includes a horizontal positioning plate 1227 fixed on one side of the raised structure 1222, and the horizontal positioning plate 1227 is used to position the inflatable device in the horizontal direction. Combined with the above description, it can be seen that when the base 122 cooperates with the inflatable device, the positioning and cooperation between the base 122 and the inflatable device can be achieved through the cooperation between the horizontal positioning plate 1227 and the vertical positioning surface. It is ensured that when the two are connected, the inflatable device can be sealed and connected with the first inflatable hole 1225 and the second inflatable hole 1226, thereby improving the inflation effect.

[0040] In the specific configuration, an inflation ring 1224 is provided on the vertical positioning surface, and a ball releaser ring 1228 is provided on the horizontal positioning plate 1227. The inflation ring 1224 is used to connect a rope for fixing during inflation or release, or to hang a detection instrument after inflation. The ball releaser ring 1228 is used to hang the ball releaser when the ball releaser is used to release the balloon.

[0052] The tensile strength test method refers to the standard GB / T 528-2009, using a type II cutter and a tensile rate of 500mm / min; the aging performance test uses hot air aging, aging conditions: 72℃*168h, and the mechanical properties after aging are tested using GB / T 528-2009; the gas permeability coefficient is tested using GB / T1038-2000, the test gas is air, and the test temperature is 25℃; It can be seen from the data in Table 1 that the aging resistance of the composite floating balloons obtained in Examples 1 to 2 of the present invention is significantly better than that of the pure latex floating balloons in Comparative Examples 1 and 2. This is because the main structure of polyurethane is a saturated molecular weight, and the aging performance of the polyurethane layer is significantly better than that of natural latex and chloroprene latex that do not contain a large number of double bonds. Similarly, from the perspective of air permeability, the air permeability of the polyurethane layer is much lower than that of natural latex and chloroprene latex. The air permeability of the composite floating balloons obtained in Examples 1-4 of the present invention is only 1 / 3-1 / 4 of that in Comparative Example 1, and only 1 / 2 of that in Comparative Example 2.

[0053] refer to Figure 4 As shown, the present application also provides a dual-mode weather balloon identification method, which is used to identify any of the above dual-mode weather balloons; the method includes the following steps: Step 001: Obtain the identity information of the dual-mode weather balloon, where the identity information at least includes the specification model, production date and production batch; Specifically, the production-end information in the information identification device is configured to pick up information such as the balloon production batch, production date, product name, specification model, upper and lower weight limits, etc.

[0054] Step 002: weighing the dual-mode weather balloon; Specifically, the inner ball 300, the outer ball 200 and the inflation nozzle 100 are weighed and measured through the weighing module in the information identification device, and the weight information of the dual-mode weather balloon is obtained.

[0055] Step 003: constructing a sign 130 that matches the dual-mode weather balloon; and writing the acquired identity information and weighing information into the sign 130; Specifically, the function of the identification module of the information identification device is to configure the judgment instruction of the picking module according to the production end information, and output the identification information of the balloon related information, which can be specifically printed, sprayed, etc. Exemplarily, when the weight of the balloon meets the requirements, the identification information is output; otherwise, no action is taken.

[0056] This step may also include, when the dual-mode weather balloon is weighed, giving an alarm when the weighed weight exceeds a set weight.

[0057] Step 004: Form the identification plate 130 on the support base 120 by printing or spraying.

[0058] It can be seen from the description of the above method that the method provided by this application has the following advantages: 1. The labels are clear and standardized. The position and size of all balloon information labels can be standardized. The weight is automatically weighed and picked up. The data is accurate. Users can clearly and standardizedly obtain the required information. It can greatly improve the user experience and satisfaction.

[0059] 2. The weight of the balloon can be automatically picked up and marked by the weighing module, without the need for manual writing, which greatly improves the efficiency of balloon information marking.

[0060] 3. Users no longer need to manually input balloon weight information. Instead, they can use scanning to automatically pick up balloon weight information and automatically calculate the inflation volume. This improves operational efficiency on the one hand, and more importantly, avoids human error in input, improves the accuracy of inflation volume, and thus increases the success rate of balloon launch.

[0061] 4. During the information-based identification process, balloon information can be electronically collected throughout the process. Relevant inflation parameters can also be collected synchronously during user use. All data can be traced, which provides excellent data support for statistical analysis of balloon quality and evaluation and improvement of business quality.

[0062] 5. The present invention adopts an integrated molding method of ion membrane deposition or thermal sensitization to prepare the inner layer of the floating balloon, and there are no defects such as splicing defects and welding defects.

[0063] 6. The present invention wraps a polyurethane layer with excellent aging resistance and good air tightness on the outer layer of the composite floating balloon, which can greatly increase the hovering time of the floating balloon.

[0064] 7. The composite floating balloon of the present invention has a mature production process, low cost, high quality reliability, and is easy to quickly mass produce and realize large-scale use.

[0065] 8. The present invention provides an identification plate 130 on the inflation nozzle 100 of the dual-mode weather balloon, so that various information of the balloon, such as production date, weight, batch, etc., can be directly obtained by scanning the identification plate 130 during use.

[0066] 9. The present invention directly sets an inflation nozzle 100 on the dual-mode weather balloon, and inflates the balloon through the inflation nozzle 100. After the inflation is completed, the balloon can be directly sealed through the inflation nozzle 100, thereby eliminating the need to bundle and seal the inflated balloon, thereby improving the accuracy and convenience of inflation control.
