The fifth sector tooth drives the second reciprocating screw to rotate through the fourth sector tooth. The second threaded disc squeezes the anti-corrosion liquid inside the support rod. The anti-corrosion liquid is evenly sprayed onto the entire device through two sets of second nozzles to protect the entire device and prevent the surface and internal structure of the device from being corroded and rusted by seawater during use at sea, which could affect the performance, service life and safety of the device.

The protective component includes a support rod, and a second reciprocating screw is rotatably installed inside the support rod. A fourth sector tooth is fixedly installed at one end of the second reciprocating screw, and a fifth sector tooth meshes with one side of the fourth sector tooth. The fifth sector tooth is fixedly connected to the rotating rod. A second threaded disc is slidably installed on the second reciprocating screw, and two sets of second nozzles are connected to one end of the support rod.
[0005] Preferably, a motor is fixedly installed inside the gearbox, and a rotating rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor. One end of the rotating rod is provided with a one-way clutch, and one side of the one-way clutch is fixedly connected to the first sector tooth through a connecting rod.

[0007] Preferably, one end of the first reciprocating lead screw passes through the inside of the gearbox, and the first reciprocating lead screw is rotatably mounted inside the oil tank. The first reciprocating lead screw is connected to the first threaded disc through a ball nut pair.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. This invention reverses the motor rotation. Because the motor drives the rotating rod to rotate in reverse, and through the adjustment of the one-way clutch, the rotating rod no longer drives the first sector tooth to rotate via the connecting rod. Instead, the motor drives the fifth sector tooth to rotate via the rotating rod, and the fifth sector tooth drives the second reciprocating screw to rotate via the fourth sector tooth. The second threaded disc squeezes the anti-corrosion liquid inside the support rod, and the anti-corrosion liquid is evenly sprayed onto the entire equipment through two sets of second spray pipes, protecting the entire equipment and preventing the surface and internal structure of the equipment from being corroded and rusted by seawater during use at sea, which could affect the performance, service life and safety of the equipment.
[0013] 2. In this invention, the rotating rod drives the first sector tooth to rotate via a one-way clutch and connecting rod. Simultaneously, the first sector tooth drives the third sector tooth to rotate, and the third sector tooth drives the first reciprocating screw to rotate. The first threaded disc squeezes the lubricating oil inside the oil tank, and the lubricating oil is evenly sprayed onto the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth sector teeth through the first nozzle. This lubricates the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth sector teeth, preventing them from experiencing accelerated tooth wear, rust, corrosion, and transmission jamming due to prolonged use at sea. This extends the gear life and ensures stable equipment operation.
[0014] 3. In this invention, the motor rotates forward, driving the rotating rod to rotate. The rotating rod is adjusted by a one-way clutch. The rotating rod, through the one-way clutch and connecting rod, drives the first sector tooth to rotate. The first sector tooth drives the second sector tooth to rotate. The second sector tooth drives the shipborne antenna terminal to turn, realizing the turning of the shipborne antenna terminal and ensuring that the antenna is always aligned with the direction of the satellite signal, thereby improving the stability of signal reception and the reliability of the equipment.

[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0018] See Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the present invention provides a steering structure for a navigation and tracking device, including a steering assembly 1. The steering assembly 1 includes a gearbox 101, a rotating rod 110 rotatably mounted inside the gearbox 101, a first sector tooth 103 fixedly mounted on the rotating rod 110, a second sector tooth 104 meshing with one side of the first sector tooth 103, a shipborne antenna terminal 105 fixedly mounted with one side of the second sector tooth 104, a third sector tooth 106 meshing with the other side of the first sector tooth 103, a first reciprocating screw 107 fixedly mounted with one side of the third sector tooth 106, a first threaded disc 108 slidably mounted on the first reciprocating screw 107, an oil tank 109 mounted on the outer surface of the first threaded disc 108, one side of the oil tank 109 being fixedly connected to one side of the gearbox 101, and one side of the oil tank 109 being connected to a first nozzle 112. The crew installed the shipborne antenna terminal 105 integrated equipment on the top of the ship's mast to receive satellite signals and forward the signals to the bridge terminal through a multi-functional data converter for navigation and tracking of the ship; During use, the crew starts the motor 102 to rotate forward. The motor 102 drives the rotating rod 110 to rotate. The rotating rod 110 is adjusted by the one-way clutch 111. The rotating rod 110 drives the first sector tooth 103 to rotate through the one-way clutch 111 and the connecting rod. The first sector tooth 103 drives the second sector tooth 104 to rotate. The second sector tooth 104 drives the shipborne antenna terminal 105 to turn, thereby turning the shipborne antenna terminal 105 to ensure that the antenna is always aligned with the direction of the satellite signal, thus improving the stability of signal reception and the reliability of the equipment. While the rotating rod 110 drives the first sector tooth 103 to rotate via the one-way clutch 111 and the connecting rod, the first sector tooth 103 drives the third sector tooth 106 to rotate, and the third sector tooth 106 drives the first reciprocating screw 107 to rotate. Since the first reciprocating screw 107 is connected to the first threaded disc 108 via a ball nut pair, and the first protrusion on one side of the first threaded disc 108 slides inside the first groove of the oil tank 109, the first reciprocating screw 107 drives the first threaded disc 108 to reciprocate inside the oil tank 109. The first threaded disc 108 presses against the oil tank 109. Internal lubricating oil is evenly sprayed through the first nozzle 112 onto the first sector gear 103, second sector gear 104, third sector gear 106, fourth sector gear 303, and fifth sector gear 304 to lubricate them. This prevents the first sector gear 103, second sector gear 104, third sector gear 106, fourth sector gear 303, and fifth sector gear 304 from experiencing accelerated tooth wear, rust and corrosion, and transmission jamming during long-term use at sea, thus extending gear life and ensuring stable equipment operation. Additionally, the crew replenishes lubricating oil inside the oil tank 109 in a timely manner by opening the first valve on the first feed port to maintain the stable operation of the steering assembly 1; See Figures 5 to 7 As shown, a protective component 3 is installed at the lower end of the steering assembly 1. The protective component 3 includes a support rod 301. A second reciprocating screw 302 is rotatably installed inside the support rod 301. A fourth sector tooth 303 is fixedly installed at one end of the second reciprocating screw 302. A fifth sector tooth 304 is engaged on one side of the fourth sector tooth 303. The fifth sector tooth 304 is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 110. A second threaded disc 305 is slidably installed on the second reciprocating screw 302. Two sets of second nozzles 306 are connected to one end of the support rod 301. The crew can start the motor 102 to reverse. Since the motor 102 drives the rotating rod 110 to reverse, and through the adjustment of the one-way clutch 111, the rotating rod 110 no longer drives the first sector tooth 103 to rotate via the connecting rod. The motor 102 drives the fifth sector tooth 304 to rotate via the rotating rod 110. The fifth sector tooth 304 drives the second reciprocating screw 302 to rotate via the fourth sector tooth 303. Since one end of the second reciprocating screw 302 passes through the interior of the third sector tooth 106 and the first reciprocating screw 107 in sequence, the second reciprocating screw 302 will not drive the third sector tooth 106 and the first reciprocating screw 107 to rotate. 302 is connected to the second threaded disc 305 through a ball nut pair, and the second protrusion on one side of the second threaded disc 305 slides inside the second groove of the support rod 301. Therefore, the second reciprocating screw 302 drives the second threaded disc 305 to reciprocate inside the support rod 301. The second threaded disc 305 squeezes the anti-corrosion liquid inside the support rod 301. The anti-corrosion liquid is evenly sprayed onto the entire equipment through two sets of second spray pipes 306 to protect the entire equipment and prevent the surface and internal structure of the equipment from being corroded and rusted by seawater during long-term use at sea, which may affect the performance, service life and safety of the equipment. Additionally, the crew replenished the anti-corrosion fluid inside the support rod 301 in a timely manner by opening the second valve on the second feed port, thus maintaining the overall stability of the equipment.
[0019] In an optional embodiment, a motor 102 is fixedly installed inside the gearbox 101. A rotating rod 110 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 102. One end of the rotating rod 110 is provided with a one-way clutch 111. One side of the one-way clutch 111 is fixedly connected to the first sector tooth 103 through a connecting rod.
[0020] It should be noted that when the motor 102 rotates forward, the one-way clutch 111 causes the rotating rod 110 to drive the first sector tooth 103 to rotate via its connecting rod, thereby achieving antenna turning and lubricating oil spraying. When rotating in reverse, the rotating rod 110 does not drive the first sector tooth 103 to rotate, but instead drives the fifth sector tooth 304 to rotate, thereby achieving anti-corrosion liquid spraying and ensuring stable operation of the equipment under different working conditions.
[0021] In an optional embodiment, one side of the first sector tooth 103 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the gearbox 101, one side of the second sector tooth 104 penetrates the interior of the gearbox 101, and one side of the second sector tooth 104 is fixedly connected to one side of the shipborne antenna terminal 105.
[0022] It should be noted that the first sector tooth 103 drives the second sector tooth 104 to rotate, and the second sector tooth 104 drives the shipborne antenna terminal 105 to turn, thereby realizing the turning of the shipborne antenna terminal 105.
[0023] In an optional embodiment, one end of the first reciprocating screw 107 passes through the inside of the gearbox 101, and the first reciprocating screw 107 is rotatably mounted inside the oil tank 109. The first reciprocating screw 107 is connected to the first threaded disc 108 through a ball nut pair.
[0024] It should be noted that, since the first reciprocating screw 107 is connected to the first threaded disc 108 through a ball nut pair, and the first protrusion on one side of the first threaded disc 108 slides inside the first groove of the oil tank 109, the first reciprocating screw 107 drives the first threaded disc 108 to reciprocate inside the oil tank 109.
[0025] In an optional embodiment, the oil tank 109 has a first groove inside, the first threaded disc 108 has a first protrusion that slides inside the first groove on one side, one end of the first nozzle 112 passes through the inside of the motor 102, the oil tank 109 has a first feed port on one side, and the first feed port has a first valve.
[0026] It should be noted that, since the first protrusion on one side of the first threaded disc 108 slides inside the first groove of the oil tank 109, the first reciprocating screw 107 drives the first threaded disc 108 to reciprocate inside the oil tank 109. The crew can replenish the lubricating oil inside the oil tank 109 in time by opening the first valve on the first feed port, so as to maintain the stable operation of the steering assembly 1.
[0027] In an optional embodiment, one end of the second reciprocating screw 302 passes through the interior of the third sector tooth 106 and the first reciprocating screw 107 in sequence, and one end of the second reciprocating screw 302 is fixedly connected to one side of the fourth sector tooth 303. The other end of the second reciprocating screw 302 passes through the interior of the oil tank 109, and the other end of the second reciprocating screw 302 rotates inside the support rod 301.
[0028] It should be noted that the fifth sector tooth 304 drives the second reciprocating screw 302 to rotate through the fourth sector tooth 303. Since one end of the second reciprocating screw 302 passes through the interior of the third sector tooth 106 and the first reciprocating screw 107 in sequence, the second reciprocating screw 302 will not drive the third sector tooth 106 and the first reciprocating screw 107 to rotate.
[0029] In an optional embodiment, the second reciprocating screw 302 and the second threaded disc 305 are connected by a ball nut pair, the support rod 301 has a second groove inside, and the second threaded disc 305 has a second protrusion that slides inside the second groove on one side.
[0030] It should be noted that, since the second reciprocating screw 302 and the second threaded disc 305 are connected by a ball nut pair, and the second protrusion on one side of the second threaded disc 305 slides inside the second groove of the support rod 301, the second reciprocating screw 302 drives the second threaded disc 305 to reciprocate inside the support rod 301.
[0031] In an optional embodiment, a second feed port is provided on one side of the support rod 301, and a second valve is provided on the second feed port.
[0032] It should be noted that the crew replenished the anti-corrosion fluid inside the support rod 301 in a timely manner by opening the second valve on the second feed port, thus maintaining the overall stability of the equipment.
[0033] Working principle: The crew installs the shipborne antenna terminal 105 on the top of the ship's mast to receive satellite signals. The signals are then forwarded to the bridge terminal via a multi-functional data converter for navigation and tracking of the ship. During the use of the device, the crew starts the motor 102 to rotate forward. The motor 102 drives the rotating rod 110 to rotate. The rotating rod 110 is adjusted by the one-way clutch 111. The rotating rod 110 drives the first sector tooth 103 to rotate through the one-way clutch 111 and the connecting rod. The first sector tooth 103 drives the second sector tooth 104 to rotate. The second sector tooth 104 drives the shipborne antenna terminal 105 to turn. While the rotating rod 110 drives the first sector tooth 103 to rotate via the one-way clutch 111 and the connecting rod, the first sector tooth 103 drives the third sector tooth 106 to rotate, and the third sector tooth 106 drives the first reciprocating screw 107 to rotate. Since the first reciprocating screw 107 is connected to the first threaded disc 108 through a ball nut pair, and the first protrusion on one side of the first threaded disc 108 slides inside the first groove of the oil tank 109, the first reciprocating screw 107 drives the first threaded disc 108 to reciprocate inside the oil tank 109. The first threaded disc 108 squeezes the lubricating oil inside the oil tank 109, and the lubricating oil is evenly sprayed onto the first sector tooth 103, the second sector tooth 104, the third sector tooth 106, the fourth sector tooth 303, and the fifth sector tooth 304 through the first nozzle 112, thus lubricating the first sector tooth 103, the second sector tooth 104, the third sector tooth 106, the fourth sector tooth 303, and the fifth sector tooth 304. The crew can start the motor 102 to reverse. Since the motor 102 drives the rotating rod 110 to reverse, after adjustment by the one-way clutch 111, the rotating rod 110 no longer drives the first sector tooth 103 to rotate through the connecting rod. The motor 102 drives the fifth sector tooth 304 to rotate through the rotating rod 110. The fifth sector tooth 304 drives the second reciprocating screw 302 to rotate through the fourth sector tooth 303. Since the second reciprocating screw 302 is connected to the second threaded disc 305 through a ball nut pair, and the second protrusion on one side of the second threaded disc 305 slides inside the second groove of the support rod 301, the second reciprocating screw 302 drives the second threaded disc 305 to reciprocate inside the support rod 301. The second threaded disc 305 squeezes the anti-corrosion liquid inside the support rod 301. The anti-corrosion liquid is evenly sprayed onto the entire equipment through two sets of second spray pipes 306 to protect the entire equipment.
