Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of floating amusement equipment, and particularly to a semi-submersible self-propelled water amusement equipment. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of the water recreation industry, the demand for water amusement equipment that combines leisure experience with safety is increasing, especially portable and multifunctional water amusement devices for individuals or small groups, which have become a key focus of market development. However, current mainstream water amusement equipment still faces the following technical challenges and functional limitations that urgently need to be addressed in practical applications.

[0003] Traditional water park equipment often has a fixed buoyancy structure. For example, inflatable floats rely on a pre-set airbag volume to provide fixed buoyancy, and small boats achieve buoyancy support through the water volume of the hull itself. They cannot dynamically adjust the buoyancy according to the usage scenario. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The main objective of this invention is to address the problem of the inability to adjust the magnitude of buoyancy.

[0005] To address the above problems, this invention proposes a semi-submersible self-propelled water amusement device, comprising:

[0006] Hollow bottom plate;

[0007] The landing platform is fixedly installed at one end of the hollow base plate;

[0008] The floating airbag chamber is fixedly installed at the lower end of the hollow bottom plate, and the floating airbag chamber adopts a retractable airbag.

[0009] The rear floating sealed chamber is installed and fixed at the lower end of the hollow bottom plate and located on one side of the floating airbag chamber.

[0010] The front floating sealed chamber is fixedly installed at the lower end of the landing platform and located on the other side of the floating airbag chamber.

[0011] The drive unit is located on the side of the hollow base plate furthest from the landing platform.

[0012] In one embodiment, a support frame is fixedly connected to the upper end of the hollow bottom plate, and a top cover is fixedly connected to the upper end of the support frame.

[0013] The supporting frame is surrounded by a protective fence, and the protective fence has an entrance and exit at the location of the landing platform.

[0014] An energy compartment is located at the upper end of the hollow base plate, inside the protective fence, and a storage battery is installed inside the energy compartment.

[0015] In one embodiment, the drive unit includes a motor and a blade, wherein the motor is electrically connected to a battery inside the energy compartment and drives the blade to rotate via an output shaft.

[0016] In one embodiment, the hollow bottom plate is a hollow structure and can accommodate an inclined stabilizing part, thereby achieving the inclined stability of the entire semi-submersible self-propelled water amusement equipment.

[0017] In one embodiment, the tilt stabilizing part includes:

[0018] The long strip body is located inside the hollow structure of the hollow base plate and serves to support the hollow base plate.

[0019] A cylindrical chamber is formed inside the long, narrow main body;

[0020] A hollow sphere, located inside a cylindrical chamber, with its two ends connected by springs.

[0021] In one embodiment, the tilt stabilizing part further includes;

[0022] A piston, with a piston connected to the outside of a spring, and a connecting rod connected to the outside of the piston;

[0023] The cylindrical chamber is through-hole at both ends, and its connecting rod passes through the cylindrical chamber and extends to the outside;

[0024] The side float tank is connected to the outside of the connecting rod.

[0025] In one embodiment, the side of the elongated main body and the inner wall of the side of the hollow bottom plate are sealed together by a sealing connecting sleeve, which is a rubber sleeve.

[0026] In one embodiment, the hollow sphere is hollow inside and contains a solid sphere.

[0027] In one embodiment, a return groove is provided inside the cylindrical chamber and at the bottom position of the solid sphere.

[0028] Beneficial effects:

[0029] 1. The technical solution of this invention breaks through the limitation of fixed buoyancy in traditional water amusement equipment by innovatively adopting a combination design of a retractable floating airbag chamber and an air pump built into the energy chamber. By inflating and deflating the floating airbag chamber with the air pump, the overall buoyancy of the equipment can be adjusted in real time, realizing flexible switching between two modes of movement: semi-submersible and floating. When inflated, the airbag expands, the buoyancy of the equipment increases, and the floating posture is maintained for personnel to rest or go ashore. When deflated, the airbag contracts, and part of the equipment sinks into a semi-submersible state, reducing water surface resistance, improving movement efficiency, and adapting to different water environments and usage scenarios.

[0030] 2. The technical solution of this invention constructs an active attitude correction mechanism by designing a two-stage linkage tilt stabilizing part consisting of a "hollow sphere-spring-side floating chamber" and a "solid sphere-lubricating oil". This solves the problem of water amusement equipment tilting due to waves and water flow. When the equipment tilts slightly, the hollow sphere maintains its initial position under the action of its own weight and the weight of the internal lubricating oil. The damping effect of the lubricating oil buffers the tilting force, preventing sudden changes in the equipment's attitude. At the same time, the solid sphere can impact the inner wall of the hollow sphere to eliminate the risk of jamming and ensure smooth subsequent adjustments. When the tilting amplitude increases, the hollow sphere moves with the tilting direction. The spring pushes the side floating chamber on the tilting side to extend outward, increasing the drainage volume on that side and improving buoyancy. Simultaneously, it pulls the other side floating chamber inward to reduce the buoyancy on that side. The tilting attitude is actively corrected by utilizing the buoyancy difference between the two sides. Furthermore, the return groove at the bottom of the cylindrical chamber can guide the solid sphere to reset when the equipment returns to center, causing the side floating chamber to return to its initial state, ensuring the cyclicality and reliability of the stabilizing function.

[0042] 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 the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0043] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives of the invention, such as Figure 1-7 As shown, the present invention provides a semi-submersible self-propelled water amusement device, including a hollow bottom plate 11 and a landing platform 4. The landing platform 4 is fixedly installed at one end of the hollow bottom plate 11, and the floating airbag chamber 6 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the hollow bottom plate 11. The floating airbag chamber 6 adopts a retractable airbag. The rear floating sealing chamber 8 is installed and fixed at the lower end of the hollow bottom plate 11 and located on one side of the floating airbag chamber 6. The front floating sealing chamber 5 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the landing platform 4 and located on the other side of the floating airbag chamber 6. A drive unit 7 is provided on the side of the hollow bottom plate 11 away from the landing platform 4.

[0044] In this embodiment, the entire semi-submersible self-propelled water amusement equipment can float on the water through the front floating sealed chamber 5, the floating airbag chamber 6 and the rear floating sealed chamber 8. During the floating process, its drive unit 7 can move on its own. So when people need to take a temporary rest, they can go down to the landing platform 4 and then enter the hollow bottom plate 11 for rest or temporary rescue.

[0045] Preferably, by setting up multiple front floating sealed chambers 5, floating airbag chambers 6 and rear floating sealed chambers 8, even if the middle floating airbag chamber 6 is damaged, the semi-submersible self-moving water amusement equipment can still float on the water surface, avoiding the risk of sinking due to damage caused by a single buoyancy.

[0046] To ensure a safer temporary rest on semi-submersible self-propelled water amusement equipment, such as Figure 1 As shown, a support frame 2 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the hollow base plate 11, and a top cover 1 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the support frame 2. The support frame 2 is surrounded by a protective fence 10, and an entrance 3 is opened at the location of the landing platform 4 corresponding to the protective fence 10. Thus, temporary rest personnel can enter the interior of the protective fence 10 to rest through the entrance 3.

[0047] Preferably, an energy chamber 12 is provided at the upper end of the hollow bottom plate 11, located on the inner side of the protective fence 10. The energy chamber 12 is equipped with a battery, which can provide better energy support for the self-movement of the entire semi-submersible self-moving water amusement equipment.

[0048] like Figure 2 As shown, the drive unit 7 includes a motor and a propeller. The motor is electrically connected to the battery inside the energy chamber 12 and drives the propeller to rotate through the output shaft. The rotation of the propeller enables the entire semi-submersible self-moving water amusement equipment to move on its own. During the rotation, the speed of the propellers on both sides of the drive unit 7 can be adjusted to achieve the turning of the semi-submersible self-moving water amusement equipment.

[0049] Preferably, the energy chamber 12 is also equipped with an air pump, which can be used to inflate and deflate the floating airbag chamber 6, thereby adjusting the buoyancy of the semi-submersible self-propelled water amusement equipment, so that the semi-submersible self-propelled water amusement equipment can move in a semi-submersible or floating manner.

[0050] As another implementation, an automatic tracking device is embedded in the landing platform 4 of the semi-submersible self-propelled water amusement equipment. The automatic tracking device includes a controller and an identification device. The identification device can identify the swimmer, and the controller can identify the signal and then control the rotation of the drive unit 7, so that the entire semi-submersible self-propelled water amusement equipment can follow the swimmer.

[0051] The identification device integrates a visual recognition unit, a distance sensing unit, and a dynamic capture unit. Its core function is to accurately locate swimmers and collect target information in real time.

[0052] Visual recognition unit: It captures water images through a high-definition waterproof camera. The built-in AI algorithms (such as human contour recognition and motion feature analysis algorithms) can quickly filter out swimmers from complex backgrounds (such as water ripples and other floating objects) and record the target's shape characteristics (such as body shape and swimming style) to avoid misjudging non-target objects (such as buoys and aquatic plants) as tracking objects.

[0053] Distance sensing unit: Equipped with an ultrasonic sensor or infrared ranging module, it measures the straight-line distance between the device and the swimmer in real time, converts the distance data into an electrical signal (such as a 0-5V analog signal), and provides basic data for subsequent tracking distance.

[0054] Dynamic capture unit: Through angular velocity and displacement sensors, it captures the swimmer's motion state, including swimming direction (such as turning left / right, moving in a straight line), swimming speed (such as slow floating, fast sprinting), and changes in body posture (such as diving, raising head to breathe), ensuring that it can continue to lock on even if the target's motion state changes abruptly.

[0055] The controller's core tasks include signal reception, analysis and calculation, and control command generation. Its workflow can be divided into three key steps:

[0056] Signal reception and analysis: The controller synchronously receives three types of signals transmitted by the identification device through the data interface: the "target confirmation signal" of visual recognition (confirming whether it is a valid swimmer), the "real-time distance signal" of distance sensing (the current distance between the device and the target), and the "motion status signal" of dynamic capture (the direction and speed data of the target), and converts the analog signals into digital signals;

[0057] Logical judgment and parameter comparison: The controller has a built-in preset "tracking control logic". First, it judges whether the "target confirmation signal" is valid. If it is a valid target, it compares the "real-time distance signal" with the preset "safe following distance range" (such as 1-3 meters, which can be adjusted according to the equipment type). At the same time, it analyzes the direction and speed data in the "motion status signal" to determine whether the target is in a state such as "linear movement", "turning", or "speed change".

[0058] Control command generation and output: Based on the logical judgment results, the controller generates targeted drive control commands.

[0059] When the distance between the device and the target exceeds the safe range (too far): an "acceleration command" is generated to control the drive unit 7 to increase the speed and shorten the distance;

[0060] When the distance between the device and the target is less than the safe range (too close): a "deceleration command" is generated to reduce the speed of the drive unit 7 and avoid collision;

[0061] When the target turns: a "steering command" is generated, and the power output difference between the two sides of the drive unit 7 is adjusted (such as the left drive wheel decelerating and the right drive wheel accelerating), so that the equipment turns in the direction of the target.

[0062] When the target speed changes abruptly (such as a sudden acceleration sprint): a "dynamic speed adjustment command" is generated to quickly match the speed of the drive unit 7 and avoid tracking lag.

[0063] Drive unit 7 is the actuator that realizes the movement and direction adjustment of the equipment, and its working process is deeply coordinated with the controller commands:

[0064] Power execution: The drive unit 7 is usually composed of a motor and a blade. The motor is a waterproof motor. After receiving the "acceleration / deceleration command" from the controller, the motor changes its speed by adjusting the current and then transmits it to the blade to achieve precise control of the equipment's forward speed and ensure that it matches the speed of the swimmer.

[0065] Direction control: When a "steering command" is received, the drive unit 7 adjusts the direction through the differential drive principle. If the target turns to the left, the controller controls the left motor of the drive unit 7 to reduce its speed and the right motor to increase its speed, so that the two thrusters generate a speed difference and drive the equipment to turn to the left; otherwise, the right side decelerates and the left side accelerates to achieve a right turn.

[0066] In another embodiment, the hollow bottom plate 11 has a hollow structure and can accommodate the tilt stabilizing part 9, thereby achieving tilt stabilization of the entire semi-submersible self-propelled water amusement equipment.

[0067] like Figure 4 , 5As shown in Figures 6 and 7, the tilting stabilizing part 9 includes a long strip body 91, which is located inside the hollow structure of the hollow bottom plate 11 and serves to support the hollow bottom plate 11. A cylindrical cavity 99 is opened inside the long strip body 91, in which a hollow sphere 92 is located inside the cylindrical cavity 99 and connected at both ends by a spring 93. A piston 94 is connected to the outside of the spring 93, and a connecting rod 96 is connected to the outside of the piston 94. The two ends of the cylindrical cavity 99 are through-hole, and the connecting rod 96 passes through the cylindrical cavity 99 and extends to the outside. A side floating compartment 97 is connected to the outside of the connecting rod 96.

[0068] In this embodiment, when the semi-submersible self-propelled water amusement equipment tilts to a small extent, its hollow sphere 92 remains stable under its own weight, thus buffering the tilt and allowing the semi-submersible self-propelled water amusement equipment to return to its correct position more effectively. When the semi-submersible self-propelled water amusement equipment continues to tilt, its hollow sphere 92 moves in the direction of the tilt, thereby pushing the side float chamber 97 on the tilted side through the spring 93, and then pulling the side float chamber 97 on the other side inward. This increases the buoyancy on the tilted side and decreases the buoyancy on the other side, thus allowing the semi-submersible self-propelled water amusement equipment to return to its correct position more effectively through the change in buoyancy.

[0069] Preferably, the side of the elongated main body 91 and the inner wall of the side of the hollow bottom plate 11 are sealed and connected by a sealing connecting sleeve 95, which is a rubber sleeve. In this way, the setting of the sealing connecting sleeve 95 can prevent water from entering the interior of the hollow bottom plate 11.

[0070] Preferably, the hollow sphere 92 has a hollow interior and contains a solid sphere 98. With the solid sphere 98, when the semi-submersible self-propelled water amusement equipment tilts, the solid sphere 98 can hit the inner wall of the hollow sphere 92, allowing the hollow sphere 92 to move more smoothly to one side, thereby better changing its buoyancy position and enabling the semi-submersible self-propelled water amusement equipment to return to its normal position more quickly.

[0071] Preferably, a return groove 910 is provided inside the cylindrical chamber 99 and at the bottom of the solid sphere 98. In this way, when the semi-submersible self-propelled water amusement equipment returns to its normal position, its hollow sphere 98 will slowly return to the lowest end of the return groove 910 under its own weight, thereby causing the side floating chamber 97 to return to its original position, and thus keeping the buoyancy of the side of the semi-submersible self-propelled water amusement equipment stable.

[0072] Preferably, the hollow cavity of the hollow sphere 92 is filled with lubricating oil, the volume of which accounts for two-thirds of the volume of the hollow cavity. Thus, under the action of the lubricating oil's own weight, the semi-submersible self-propelled water amusement equipment can remain stable in the initial tilting stage. When tilting continues, the lubricating oil can also drive the piston 94 to move under its own weight, thereby adjusting the buoyancy changes on both sides of the semi-submersible self-propelled water amusement equipment.

[0073] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention.
