Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of ecological floating platform technology, specifically to a life-saving modular ecological floating platform. Background Technology

[0002] Ecological floating platforms, also known as ecological floating beds or artificial floating islands, are a water treatment technology based on ecological restoration principles. They involve constructing floating platforms on the water surface capable of supporting plants. Through the synergistic effect of plant roots, microbial communities, and the floating structure, they improve eutrophic water quality and restore ecological balance. Their core functions include: absorbing pollutants such as nitrogen and phosphorus from the water using plants, and degrading organic matter and heavy metals through microorganisms attached to the roots; inhibiting excessive algal blooms by blocking sunlight and competing for nutrients; and providing habitats for fish, insects, and birds, promoting the restoration of aquatic biodiversity. Furthermore, the modular design of the floating platforms adapts to different aquatic environments, such as lakes, rivers, and urban wetlands, and also serves a landscaping function, allowing for the planting of emergent or ornamental plants to enhance the ecological value of the water. Compared to traditional treatment methods, this technology offers advantages such as low energy consumption, easy maintenance, and no secondary pollution. Regular harvesting of plants enables the resource-based removal of pollutants, improving water transparency and self-purification capacity in the long term, making it a sustainable solution combining ecological restoration and pollution control.

[0003] Existing ecological floating platforms generally have a fixed structure. For example, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN220642786U discloses a rural waterfront ecological floating platform, which includes a main body, an adjustment structure, and control components. The main body is the ecological floating platform itself, and it has a rectangular structure. Its key feature is that the top of the main body has evenly arranged circular holes. The adjustment structure is located at the bottom of the main body, and the adjustment components of the adjustment structure are located below the main body. The control components are fitted around the adjustment components. Through a series of components, after aquatic plants are inserted into the circular holes of the main body, the control components slide downwards, simultaneously causing the adjustment block to flip, pulling open the tension spring. This causes the control components to cause the circular holes at the bottom of the adjustment components to contract inwards, thereby bringing the bottom of the adjustment components into contact with the aquatic plants, thus supporting the aquatic plants and ensuring their growth direction. This disclosed ecological floating platform, in order to ensure that the planted plants can contact the water surface to meet their growth needs, has relatively low buoyancy, allowing it to float close to the water surface. However, when a person falls into the water and tries to climb on it, the main body of the floating platform will sink, which is not conducive to rescue operations. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the above-mentioned technical problems and provide a life-saving modular ecological floating platform.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention employs the following technical solution:

[0006] A modular ecological floating platform for rescue includes a floating bed, multiple floating beds are assembled into a floating island, the floating bed has mounting holes in which planting trays for planting plants are installed; a buoyancy airbag is provided at the bottom of the floating bed, and an installation cavity is provided inside the floating bed, the installation cavity is provided with an air pump, the air outlet of the air pump is connected to the buoyancy airbag through an inflation pipe; an opening device is provided on one side of the floating bed, the opening device includes a buoy and a transmission rod set on the water surface, the transmission rod is located above the buoy and connected to the floating bed, when the floating bed sinks, the buoy presses against the transmission rod and moves it beyond a threshold, triggering a start signal to start the air pump to inflate the buoyancy airbag.

[0007] Furthermore, the inflation tube is equipped with only a one-way valve, which allows air to be delivered from the air pump to the buoyancy airbag in one direction. The buoyancy airbag is equipped with a vent, which is connected to a sealing cap.

[0008] Furthermore, the air pump has an air inlet connected to an air inlet pipe, and a hollow ball is fixedly connected to the end of the air inlet pipe. An air inlet hole is provided on the hollow ball.

[0009] Furthermore, a hollow cylinder is provided on the floating bed, and the hollow ball is fixed to the upper end of the hollow cylinder.

[0010] Furthermore, a protective cover is provided on the hollow cylinder, and the protective cover is positioned above the hollow sphere.

[0011] Furthermore, a power source is provided within the mounting cavity, and the air pump is in electrical contact with the power source.

[0012] Furthermore, a guide cylinder is provided on one side of the floating bed, and a guide groove is opened in the guide cylinder. The float is located in the guide groove and moves up and down along the guide cylinder. The transmission rod is hinged to the floating bed, and a first tension spring is provided on the floating bed. One end of the first tension spring is fixed to the middle of the transmission rod, and the other end of the first tension spring is fixed to the floating bed. The end of the transmission rod away from the floating bed extends into the guide cylinder and is located above the float. When the float moves upward, it abuts against the transmission rod, causing the transmission rod to flip upward and move, and maintain the upward flipped state under the action of the first tension spring. A touch switch is installed on the floating bed. The contact of the touch switch is located above the transmission rod, and when the transmission rod flips upward, pressing the contact connects the control circuit of the touch switch.

[0013] Furthermore, a buffer spring is installed on the transmission rod, and the buffer spring is located between the float and the transmission rod.

[0014] Furthermore, the bottom of the floating bed is provided with an installation groove, the buoyancy airbag is located in the installation groove, and an elastic pull rope is fixedly connected to the bottom of the floating bed. The elastic pull rope is located below the buoyancy airbag and its two ends are located on both sides of the buoyancy airbag to limit the buoyancy airbag to the bottom of the floating bed.

[0015] Furthermore, a fixing plate is fixedly connected to the floating bed, and the fixing plate extends to the adjacent floating bed and fixes the two adjacent floating beds together.

[0016] The present invention provides a modular ecological floating platform for rescue, which has the following beneficial effects: Under normal conditions, the floating platform floats on the water surface, its height close to the water surface, allowing the roots of plants in the planting tray to contact the water, meeting their growth needs and providing ecological treatment for wastewater. The plant roots absorb pollutants from the water, achieving the effect of ecological water treatment. When someone falls into the water and climbs onto the floating platform, the platform sinks, causing the buoy to sink as well. This triggers a start signal to activate the air pump, inflating the buoyancy airbag. The inflated airbag generates greater buoyancy, causing the floating platform to rise and support the person in the water, thus achieving an auxiliary rescue effect. Therefore, during normal use, the buoyancy airbag contracts, keeping the floating platform close to the water surface and allowing plant roots to contact the water. When someone climbs onto the floating platform, the inflated airbag provides buoyancy, ensuring sufficient buoyancy for rescue. Attached Figure Description

[0026] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.

[0027] 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 a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of them. 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.

[0028] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present invention, all directional indications (such as up-down-left-right-forward-backward...) are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement between the components in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly. The connection can be a direct connection or an indirect connection.

[0029] like Figures 1-7 As shown, a life-saving modular ecological floating platform includes a floating bed 1, multiple floating beds 1 are spliced ​​together to form a floating island. The floating bed 1 has mounting holes, in which planting trays 2 for planting plants are installed. A buoyancy airbag 3 is provided at the bottom of the floating bed 1. An installation cavity is provided inside the floating bed 1, and an air pump 4 is provided in the installation cavity. The air outlet of the air pump 4 is connected to the buoyancy airbag 3 through an inflation pipe 41. An opening device 5 is provided on one side of the floating bed 1. The opening device 5 includes a float 51 and a transmission rod 52 set on the water surface. The transmission rod 52 is located above the float 51 and connected to the floating bed 1. When the floating bed 1 sinks, the float 51 presses against the transmission rod 52 and moves beyond a threshold, triggering a start signal to start the air pump 4 to inflate the buoyancy airbag 3.

[0030] Using the above technical solution, under normal conditions, the floating bed 1 floats on the water surface, its height close to the water surface, so that the roots of the plants in the planting tray 2 can contact the water, meeting their growth needs and ecologically treating wastewater. The plant roots absorb pollutants in the water, achieving the effect of ecological water treatment. When someone falls into the water and climbs onto the floating bed, the floating bed sinks, causing the buoy 51 to sink, which in turn triggers the start signal to activate the air pump 4 to inflate the buoyancy airbag 3. After the buoyancy airbag 3 inflates, it generates greater buoyancy, causing the floating bed to rise and support the person who has fallen into the water, thus achieving the effect of assisting in lifesaving. In this way, it ensures that during normal use, the buoyancy airbag 3 contracts, keeping the floating bed 1 close to the water surface, allowing the plant roots to contact the water. When someone climbs onto the floating bed, the buoyancy airbag 3 inflates, providing buoyancy to make the floating bed rise, ensuring sufficient buoyancy for rescue. Specifically, both the floating bed 1 and the buoy 51 are hollow structures so that both can float on the water surface.

[0031] The inflation tube 41 is equipped with only a one-way valve 42, which allows air to be delivered from the air pump 4 to the buoyancy airbag 3 in one direction. The buoyancy airbag 3 is equipped with a vent, which is connected to a sealing cap 31. By setting the one-way valve 42, gas leakage from the buoyancy airbag 3 is prevented. The vent is provided so that after the assisted rescue is completed, the gas in the buoyancy airbag 3 can be released, allowing the floating bed 1 to fall to the water surface and the plant roots to descend and return to a state of contact with the water.

[0032] The air pump 4 has an air inlet connected to an air inlet pipe 43, and a hollow ball 44 is fixedly connected to the end of the air inlet pipe 43. An air inlet hole is provided on the hollow ball 44.

[0033] A hollow cylinder 6 is provided on the floating bed 1, and the hollow ball 44 is fixed to the upper end of the hollow cylinder 6. The buoyancy provided by the hollow cylinder 6 ensures that even if the hollow cylinder 6 falls into the water, it remains above the water surface, preventing water from entering the hollow ball 44 through the water inlet and causing inflation to fail.

[0034] A protective cover 61 is provided on the hollow cylinder 6, which covers the hollow sphere 44. The protective cover 61 covers the hollow sphere 44, protects it, and prevents rainwater and debris from falling into the water inlet.

[0035] A power supply 7 is installed within the mounting cavity, and the air pump 4 is in electrical contact with the power supply 7. The power supply 7 provides electrical energy to the air pump 4, ensuring its startup and operation. Specifically, the power supply 7 can be a replaceable type of energy storage battery for charging, or it can be charged by adding a solar panel to convert solar energy into electrical energy.

[0036] A guide cylinder 8 is provided on one side of the floating bed 1. A guide groove is provided inside the guide cylinder 8. The float 51 is located in the guide groove and moves up and down along the guide cylinder 8. The transmission rod 52 is hinged to the floating bed 1. A first tension spring 53 is provided on the floating bed 1. One end of the first tension spring 53 is fixed to the middle of the transmission rod 52, and the other end of the first tension spring 53 is fixed to the floating bed 1. The end of the transmission rod 52 away from the floating bed 1 extends into the guide cylinder 8 and is located above the float 51. When the float 51 moves upward, it abuts against the transmission rod 52, causing the transmission rod 52 to flip upward and remain in an upward flipped state under the action of the first tension spring 53. A touch switch 54 is installed on the floating bed 1. The contact of the touch switch 54 is located above the transmission rod 52. After the transmission rod 52 flips upward, pressing the contact connects the control circuit of the touch switch 54. A float 51 is installed inside the guide cylinder 8, allowing water to enter and causing the float 51 to float on the surface. When the float bed 1 sinks under pressure, it moves the guide cylinder 8 downwards, causing the float 51 to move upwards relative to the float bed 1. This causes one end of the transmission rod 52 inside the guide cylinder 8 to move upwards. The upward movement of the transmission rod 52 causes the connection point of the first tension spring 53 on the transmission rod 52 to move upwards. When the upward displacement of the transmission rod 52 is small, and the transmission rod 52 fails to flip past the hinge point with the float bed 1, the tension of the first tension spring 53 keeps the transmission rod 52 in a downward flipping trend. When the float 51 resets after a small disturbance, the transmission rod 52 also resets under the tension and remains in a downward deflection state. When the downward displacement of the float bed 1 is large, exceeding a set threshold, the float 51 moves upwards relative to the float bed 1. The transmission rod 52 is driven around the hinge point, and the first tension spring 53 is driven around the hinge point between the transmission rod 52 and the float 1. The tension of the first tension spring 53 causes the transmission rod 52 to flip upward and remain in an upward deflection state. The upward deflection of the transmission rod 52 keeps it in contact with the contact of the touch switch 54, thereby connecting the circuit of the air pump 4 to continuously inflate the buoyancy airbag 3. After the buoyancy airbag 3 is inflated, the overall buoyancy increases, causing the float 1 to float upward to provide sufficient buoyancy for support and rescue of people who have fallen into the water. The tension of the first tension spring 53 keeps the transmission rod 52 in a deflection state, thereby preventing the float ball 51 from falling and interrupting the inflation after the buoyancy airbag 3 is inflated. After the rescue is completed, the transmission rod 52 is pushed downward to stop the inflation of the buoyancy airbag 3, and the buoyancy airbag 3 is deflated to restore its original state.

[0037] A buffer spring 55 is installed on the transmission rod 52, and the buffer spring 55 is located between the float 51 and the transmission rod 52. By setting the buffer spring 55, the float 51 will not collide with the transmission rod 52 quickly during its upward movement, causing the transmission rod 52 to flip immediately, thus avoiding false triggering.

[0038] The bottom of the floating bed 1 has an installation groove 11, and the buoyancy airbag 3 is located in the installation groove 11. An elastic rope 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the floating bed 1. The elastic rope 12 is located below the buoyancy airbag 3 and its two ends are located on both sides of the buoyancy airbag 3 to limit the buoyancy airbag 3 to the bottom of the floating bed 1. The elastic rope 12 limits the buoyancy airbag 3, so that the buoyancy airbag 3 is located in the installation groove 11. At the same time, when the buoyancy airbag 3 is inflated, the elastic rope 12 deforms, providing space for the buoyancy airbag 3 to inflate.

[0039] A fixing plate 13 is fixedly connected to the floating bed 1, and the fixing plate 13 extends to the adjacent floating bed 1 and fixes the two adjacent floating beds 1 together. By fixing the adjacent floating beds 1 together with the fixing plate 13, the floating beds 1 can be combined to form a floating island.

[0040] The parts not covered in this technical solution can be implemented using existing technologies.
