Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a float, in particular to a float and a manufacturing process thereof. Background Art

[0002] Fishing is a popular recreational activity today. Many people opt for nighttime fishing due to limited daytime hours, resulting in numerous floats suitable for night fishing. A fishing float typically consists of a float base, a float body, a light-emitting device, and a tail. The light-emitting device is housed within the float body, while the tail and base are fixed to each end of the float body. One end of the tail is connected to the light-emitting device within the float body. Float bodies have been made from materials ranging from the most primitive reed stems, sorghum stalks, peacock feathers, and wild boar hair to more popular materials such as fir wood and nanomaterials (a sheet of foamed material). Currently, some floats are commercially available with one end made of carbon fiber and the other of glass fiber, but these lack strength and are prone to breaking. For example, Chinese patent document CN202111576927.6 discloses a process for making a float using peacock feathers. This float body is made by gluing peacock feathers together and then polishing them. While sensitive, it lacks strength and is brittle and easily broken. For this reason, the existing structures often include inserting the float foot and the float tail into the float body or setting multiple rings embedded in the float body to increase the strength of the float body. For example, Chinese patent document: CN201810392317.2 discloses an integrated electronic buoy and its preparation method. The preparation method provides a method for manufacturing a high-strength float body, but this electronic buoy is foamed as a whole. Although its overall strength is enhanced, since it is foamed as a whole, it is a complete body that needs to be pulled when used, which greatly reduces its sensitivity. In addition, its feedback effect is insufficient due to insufficient sensitivity during fishing. Summary of the Invention

[0003] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, the present invention proposes a float with novel structure, excellent sensitivity and stability, light weight and high strength, and a manufacturing process thereof.

[0004] To solve this technical problem, the present invention adopts the following solution: a float, including a float body, the surface of the float body is also provided with a waterproof layer, the float body includes multiple floating carriers and multiple spacers the same number as the floating carriers, the floating carriers are any one of peacock feathers, wild boar hair, balsam wood, foamed PVC solid rods, carbon fiber tubes filled with epoxy resin, or a mixture of two or more, the spacer thickness is 0.08 mm-0.5 mm, the multiple floating carriers and the multiple spacers are alternately bonded and formed into a columnar body, and a hollow cavity is provided in the columnar body.

[0005] Furthermore, the separator is any one of non-woven fabric, wood pulp fiber paper, gauze, fiber cloth, PVC wallpaper, polyester cloth, and glass fiber cloth, or a mixture of two or more of them.

[0006] Furthermore, the surface waterproof layer of the floating body is a paint layer.

[0007] Furthermore, the floating body is provided with a hollow cavity in a columnar body formed by alternately bonding a plurality of floating carriers and a plurality of spacers.

[0008] Furthermore, the two ends of the float body are respectively connected to a float tail and a float foot.

[0009] Furthermore, it also includes a light-emitting device, which is arranged in the hollow cavity of the float body and is connected to the float tail so that the float tail can emit light.

[0010] The manufacturing process of the above-mentioned float comprises the following steps: S1. Select qualified materials that can be used to make floats and pre-process them to obtain corresponding shaft segment float carriers, and trim the cross-sectional shape of the shaft segment float carriers; S2. Selecting a spacer material for making a floating body and cutting it to obtain a spacer having the same length as the shaft segment floating carrier obtained in step S1 and a width greater than or equal to the diameter of the shaft segment floating carrier; S3. Use glue to alternately bond and splice the multiple shaft segment floating carriers that have been trimmed in step S1 and the multiple spacers that have been cut in step S2 to obtain a columnar blank float body, shape the blank float body to obtain a half-blank float body of the corresponding shape, polish the half-blank float body and coat the surface with a waterproof layer to obtain a float body, and assemble the two ends of the obtained float body with the float foot and float tail to obtain a float.

[0011] Furthermore, in step S3, the blank float body is obtained by alternately bonding and splicing the multiple shaft segment float carriers trimmed in step S1 and the multiple spacers cut in step S2, and then rolling them up and bonding the ends to form a columnar structure.

[0012] Furthermore, in step S3, when the blank float body is subjected to shaping processing to obtain a half-blank float body of corresponding shape, the blank float body is first punched to form a hollow cavity in the blank float body, a light-emitting device is assembled in the hollow cavity, and the assembled blank float body is subjected to shaping processing to obtain a half-blank float body of corresponding shape.

[0013] Furthermore, the waterproof layer coated on the surface of the semi-blank float body polished in step S3 is a paint layer.

[0014] By adopting the above-mentioned technical scheme, the beneficial effect of the present invention is: by designing the float body of the float into multiple floating carriers and multiple spacers that are alternately bonded and surrounded into a columnar structure, the spacers are set to effectively enhance its strength and play a supporting role, effectively avoiding the fragile structure of the float body formed by bonding peacock feathers, wild boar hair, etc., without reducing its sensitivity, so that the float body has both excellent sensitivity and stability and the effect of light weight and high strength. The structure is novel, and one or more of peacock feathers, wild boar hair, balsam wood, foamed PVC solid rods, and carbon fiber tubes filled with epoxy resin are mixed as floating carriers and matched with spacers with a thickness of 0.08 mm-0.5 mm to further ensure light weight and good sensitivity. The spacers are made of any one of non-woven fabrics, wood pulp fiber paper, gauze, fiber cloth, PVC wallpaper, polyester cloth, and glass fiber cloth, or a mixture of two or more, which effectively ensures the toughness of the float body and will not affect the overall strength of the float, nor make it lack sensitivity like the integral foamed one-piece float, and can be widely promoted and applied. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The float tail 2 and the float foot 3 are respectively connected to the two ends of the float body 1. The float body 1 includes 8 floating carriers 11 and 8 spacers 12. The float carrier 11 is peacock feathers, and the spacer 12 is non-woven fabric and the thickness of the spacer 12 is 0.15 mm. The 8 floating carriers 11 and the 8 spacers 12 are alternately bonded and formed into a columnar body, and a hollow cavity 13 is provided in the columnar body. The light-emitting device is assembled in the hollow cavity 13 of the float body 1 and the light-emitting device is connected to the float tail 2 so that the float tail 2 can emit light at night.

[0018] The manufacturing process of the above-mentioned float comprises the following steps: S1. Selecting peacock feathers that can be used to make floats and performing feather pretreatment to obtain corresponding shaft-segment float carriers, and trimming the cross-sectional shape of the shaft-segment float carriers using a grinding wheel; S2. Select a non-woven fabric used to make a spacer for a floating body and cut it to obtain a spacer that is the same length as the shaft segment floating carrier obtained in step S1 and has a width greater than the diameter of the shaft segment floating carrier; S3. Use glue to alternately bond the 8 shaft-segment floating carriers trimmed in step S1 and the 8 spacers cut in step S2, splice and arrange them, then roll them up and bond the heads and tails together to form a columnar structure to obtain a columnar blank float body. Use a drilling machine to punch holes in the blank float body to form a hollow cavity in the blank float body. Assemble a light-emitting device in the hollow cavity. Shape the assembled blank float body to obtain a half-blank float body of corresponding shape. Polish the half-blank float body and then coat the surface with a waterproof paint layer to obtain a float body. Assemble the two ends of the obtained float body with the float foot and float tail to obtain a float.

[0019] In the above embodiment, the number of floating carriers and spacers used to make the float body is preferably set to 7-13. The floating carrier can also be any one of peacock feathers, wild boar hair, balsam wood, foamed PVC solid rods, and carbon fiber tubes filled with epoxy resin, or a mixture of two or more. The thickness of the spacer is preferably 0.08 mm-0.5 mm.
