Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a ship deck ventilation structure, and particularly to an adaptive deck waterproof ventilation head and a use method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In the field of ship navigation, ventilation heads installed on open decks are important equipment to ensure cabin air circulation. Under normal sea conditions, they can effectively realize air exchange between the inside and outside of the cabin, maintaining the comfort and safety of the air environment inside the cabin.

[0003] However, existing open-deck vents pose a constant risk of flooding during high sea conditions, necessitating the closure of these vents. However, this effectively shuts off ventilation to these cabins for the duration of the high sea conditions, reducing air circulation and impacting comfort and safety. Furthermore, existing open-deck vents lack an automatic closing function. In high sea conditions, these vents must be closed by seafarers on deck. During these times, the ship's violent rocking poses a significant risk of falling overboard. This not only endangers the lives of seafarers but also increases safety risks during navigation.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a new ship ventilation head structure that can effectively prevent water ingress in high sea conditions while ensuring cabin ventilation and eliminating the need for seafarers to perform dangerous operations in high sea conditions. Summary of the Invention

The water collecting bucket moves vertically along the guide mechanism. The outer edge of the bottom of the water collecting barrel exceeds the outer wall of the inner cylinder, and an air flow channel is formed between the bottom of the water collecting barrel and the upper end of the inner cylinder; a top cover is provided above the water collecting barrel, the top cover is fixed to the upper end of the guide mechanism, and a flow hole is opened on the top cover and communicated with the water collecting barrel; The top cover is located above the outer shell, and a gap for forming a vent is left between the top cover and the upper opening of the outer shell.

[0007] According to the above scheme, the adaptive deck waterproof ventilation head also includes a stroke compression mechanism, which is adapted to the guide mechanism; the lower end of the stroke compression mechanism is installed on the fixed rod, and the upper end of the stroke compression mechanism is connected to the water collecting bucket; the upper end of the stroke compression mechanism drives the water collecting bucket to move vertically along the guide mechanism.

[0008] According to the above solution, an annular sealing gasket is provided at the lower end of the water collecting bucket.

[0009] According to the above solution, the outer wall of the inner cylinder, the inner wall of the outer shell and the ship deck form a water storage tank.

[0010] According to the above solution, a drain pipe is provided at the bottom of the water collecting bucket, and the outlet end of the drain pipe is connected to the water storage tank.

[0011] According to the above scheme, the top cover includes a trumpet-shaped structure and an outer eaves plate; the lower end of the trumpet-shaped structure is connected to the upper end of the guide mechanism; the small mouth end of the trumpet-shaped structure is provided with an overflow hole, and the arc surface of the trumpet-shaped structure forms a guide surface; the large mouth end of the trumpet-shaped structure is provided with an annular outer eaves plate.

[0012] According to the above solution, a gap is left between the outer eaves plate and the baffle.

[0013] According to the above solution, the guide mechanism includes a stabilizing rod and a guide rod; The two ends of the stabilizing rod are respectively arranged inside the inner cylinder; the guide rod is vertically arranged, and the guide rod is respectively connected to the stroke compression mechanism, the water collecting bucket and the top cover.

[0014] According to the above solution, a drain outlet is provided at the lower portion of the water storage tank.

[0015] The present invention also adopts a method for using the above-mentioned adaptive deck waterproof vent head, which is: installing the adaptive deck waterproof vent head; Under normal sea conditions, the fan is started to work normally to ventilate the ship's cabins; When rainwater and / or seawater enters the adaptive deck waterproof ventilation head and the stroke compression mechanism is not pressed down, the adaptive deck waterproof ventilation head is in a non-submerged state, and the water flows into the water collecting bucket, the weight of the water collecting bucket increases, and at the same time, the water in the water collecting bucket is discharged through the drain outlet into the water storage tank and discharged through the drain outlet; when the water volume increases, the stroke compression mechanism is compressed and deformed by the water flow and the gravity of the water collecting bucket, the water collecting bucket descends, and the air flow channel area decreases; when the water volume continues to increase and the force borne by the stroke compression mechanism exceeds the applicable elastic force range of the stroke compression mechanism, the stroke compression mechanism is pressed down, and the water collecting bucket subsequently descends to contact with the upper end of the inner cylinder, and the air flow channel is completely closed to prevent water from entering the cabin.

Figure 1 As shown; Under severe sea conditions, rainwater and / or seawater enters the adaptive deck waterproof ventilation head. When the water volume is small and the stroke compression mechanism 3 does not press down, the adaptive deck waterproof ventilation head is in a non-submerged state (the adaptive deck waterproof ventilation head has not completely entered the water). The water flows into the water collecting bucket 2 through the flow hole under the guidance of the trumpet-shaped structure 16 of the top cover 7. The weight of the water collecting bucket 2 increases, and at the same time, the water in the water collecting bucket 2 is discharged through the drain port 8 into the water storage tank and discharged through the drain port 8; when the water volume increases, the stroke compression mechanism 3 is compressed and deformed by the water flow and the gravity of the water collecting bucket 2, and the water collecting bucket 2 drops to reach the equilibrium point. At this time, the area of the air flow channel decreases; when the water volume continues to increase and the force borne by the stroke compression mechanism 3 exceeds the applicable elastic force range of the stroke compression mechanism 3, the stroke compression mechanism 3 presses down, and the water collecting bucket 2 subsequently drops to contact with the upper end of the inner cylinder 1.

At this time, the adaptive deck waterproof ventilation head is in a submerged state. Figure 2 shown.

[0049] In the present invention, the vacuum relief valve 5 is linked to the fan. That is, when a person operates the fan starter to start the fan, a signal is simultaneously transmitted to the vacuum relief valve 5, causing it to open. When the fan stops, the vacuum relief valve 5 also receives a closing signal, closing the pressure relief valve. When water no longer flows into the adaptive deck waterproof vent after a severe operating condition, the fan connected to the vacuum relief valve 5 is activated, introducing air into the inner cylinder 1 of the adaptive deck waterproof vent, breaking the vacuum atmosphere within the cylinder. At this point, the stroke compression mechanism 3 is restored by the air, the water collection bucket 2 rises, the airflow channel opens, and the adaptive deck waterproof vent enters ventilation mode.
