Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of marine monitoring technology, and more specifically to a marine meteorological monitoring device based on a ship. Background Technology

[0002] Ships are important mobile platforms for conducting meteorological monitoring in the open and deep sea. Traditional shipborne meteorological monitoring devices are usually rigidly fixed directly to the ship's mast or superstructure deck to monitor parameters such as wind speed, wind direction, temperature, humidity, and air pressure.

[0003] However, during navigation, especially when encountering strong winds and waves, ships generate severe rolling, pitching, heaving, and high-frequency vibrations. These complex multi-degree-of-freedom movements and vibrations are directly transmitted to rigidly fixed monitoring devices, leading to a significant decrease in sensor measurement accuracy. For example, anemometers (such as ultrasonic ones) experience large unnatural displacements and vibrations due to ship motion, interfering with their measurement of the real airflow field, resulting in significant errors or even failure. The device structure is also prone to fatigue damage. Long-term exposure to large vibrations and impact loads can cause connecting parts to loosen, potentially damaging the sensor itself, shortening the device's lifespan, and reducing data reliability. Furthermore, the collected data contains a large amount of ship motion noise, making it difficult to extract accurate meteorological information and affecting the effectiveness and reliability of the monitoring data.

[0004] In view of the above, the present invention designs a marine meteorological monitoring device based on a ship, which solves the above-mentioned technical problems. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this invention is to provide a marine meteorological monitoring device based on a ship, which solves the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a marine meteorological monitoring device based on a ship, comprising a mounting platform with mounting holes for fixing the platform to a ship. A base is provided on the mounting platform, and a fixing seat is provided on the base. A shock absorber is provided above the fixing seat, and a horizontal adjustment mechanism is provided above the shock absorber. A balancing mechanism is provided inside the horizontal adjustment mechanism. A wind speed and direction monitor, a temperature and humidity monitor, and an atmospheric pressure monitor are provided above the horizontal adjustment mechanism. When the ship encounters large waves, the wind speed and direction monitor, temperature and humidity monitor, and atmospheric pressure monitor maintain the horizontal state of the device through the horizontal adjustment structure, while the shock absorber reduces the vibration amplitude of the entire device after encountering waves.

[0007] Preferably, the shock absorber includes a buffer layer, a mounting frame, a buffer plate, a sliding block, a first connecting rod, a moving block, and a second connecting rod. Two sets of rotating seats are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the fixed seat, and a rotating shaft is provided between the two sets of rotating seats. The buffer layer is sleeved on the fixed seat and can slide up and down on the fixed seat. A mounting frame is provided on the outer side of the buffer layer. The buffer plate is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mounting frame, and limit grooves are symmetrically provided on the buffer plate.

[0008] A sliding block is slidably disposed within a sliding groove, and mounting posts are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the sliding block; a moving block is slidably disposed within a buffer layer, and two sets of mounting seats are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the moving block, with a fixed shaft connected to the two sets of mounting seats; a first connecting rod has one end rotatably disposed on a rotating shaft, and the other end of the first connecting rod is rotatably connected to a mounting post; a second connecting rod has one end rotatably disposed on a mounting post, and the other end of the second connecting rod is rotatably connected to a fixed shaft.

[0009] Preferably, the two ends of the buffer layer are connected to the fixed base and the movable block respectively, and the buffer layer is sealed to the fixed base and the movable block by a sealing strip, so that the movable block can move up and down within the buffer layer.

[0010] Preferably, the horizontal adjustment mechanism is disposed above the moving block. The horizontal adjustment mechanism includes an adjusting plate, a load-bearing plate, and a connecting block. The load-bearing plate is disposed above the moving block, and a hemisphere is disposed below the load-bearing plate. A rotating groove is formed on the moving block, and the hemisphere is disposed in the rotating groove. An adjusting plate is disposed on the outside of the load-bearing plate, and the adjusting plate is a regular hexagon. The adjusting plate is connected to the load-bearing plate through the connecting block. A motion cavity is formed in the connecting block, and a balancing mechanism is disposed in the motion cavity.

[0011] Preferably, in the initial state, the fixed seat and the movable block are in a hollow state. When the ship encounters large waves, the ship moves up and down, and the load-bearing plate drives the movable block to reciprocate against the inner wall of the buffer layer. The reciprocating motion of the movable block against the inner wall of the buffer layer uses the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod to drive the sliding block to move in the limiting groove, thereby reducing the vibration amplitude of the up and down movement of the monitoring device.

[0012] Preferably, the balancing mechanism includes a fixed rod, a first electromagnet, a second electromagnet, and a counterweight. Two sets of fixed rods are symmetrically arranged inside the motion cavity. A first electromagnet is arranged at the end of the fixed rod near the load-bearing plate, and a second electromagnet is arranged at the end of the fixed rod near the adjusting plate. A counterweight is arranged at the middle position between the first and second electromagnets. When the counterweight is in the middle position, the adjusting plate is in a balanced state.

[0013] Preferably, each of the connecting blocks is equipped with a sensor. The sensor is used to detect the angle between the connecting block and the sea surface. When the angle between the connecting block and the sea surface exceeds a preset value, the first electromagnet drives the counterweight block to move on the fixed rod, thereby making the entire floating platform in a balanced state.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention: This invention provides a marine meteorological monitoring device based on a ship. When a ship encounters large waves while sailing on the sea, the device uses a movable block to reciprocate up and down within a buffer layer set on a fixed base. Since the buffer layer is fixedly connected to the fixed base and sealed with a sealing strip, a syringe-like structure is formed within the buffer layer between the movable block and the fixed base. When the movable block moves downwards, the second connecting rods on both sides of the movable block push the sliding block to move within a limiting groove. The movement of the sliding block causes the first connecting rod to swing. When the ship encounters waves, causing the movable block to slide up and down, the faster the impact, the greater the resistance and the stronger the buffering effect. With minimal impact and resistance, it can adapt to various sea conditions and waves. The leveling mechanism adjusts its level according to the size of the waves and the ship's tilt. When the sensor detects that the angle between the connecting block and the sea surface exceeds a preset value, the corresponding electromagnet inside the connecting block is energized. This generates an attractive force, causing the counterweight to move on the fixed rod, preventing the floating platform from tilting due to waves. When the detected angle matches the preset value, the second electromagnet is energized, returning the counterweight to its initial position, thus preventing the counterweight from causing the leveling plate to tilt and further improving the platform's horizontal stability.

[0023] 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. Obviously, the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present invention, but not all embodiments. Based on the described 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.

[0024] refer to Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a marine meteorological monitoring device based on a ship includes a mounting platform 1 with mounting holes 11 for fixing the platform 1 to the ship. A base 2 is mounted on the mounting platform 1, and a fixing seat 23 is mounted on the base 2. A shock absorber 3 is mounted above the fixing seat 23, and a horizontal adjustment mechanism 4 is mounted above the shock absorber 3. A balancing mechanism 5 is located inside the horizontal adjustment mechanism 4. A wind speed and direction monitor 6, a temperature and humidity monitor 7, and an atmospheric pressure monitor 8 are mounted above the horizontal adjustment mechanism 4. When the ship encounters large waves, the wind speed and direction monitor 6, temperature and humidity monitor 7, and atmospheric pressure monitor 8 maintain the horizontal state of the device through the horizontal adjustment structure, while the shock absorber 3 reduces the vibration amplitude of the entire device after encountering waves.

[0025] Specifically, the shock absorber 3 includes a buffer layer 31, a mounting frame 32, a buffer plate 33, a sliding block 34, a first connecting rod 35, a moving block 36, and a second connecting rod 37. Two sets of rotating seats 21 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the fixed seat 23, and a rotating shaft 22 is provided between the two sets of rotating seats 21. The buffer layer 31 is sleeved on the fixed seat 23 and can slide up and down on the fixed seat 23. The outer side of the buffer layer 31 is provided with a mounting frame 32. The buffer plate 33 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mounting frame 32, and limit grooves 331 are symmetrically opened on the buffer plate 33.

[0026] A sliding block 34 is slidably disposed within a sliding groove, and mounting posts 341 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the sliding block 34; a moving block 36 is slidably disposed within a buffer layer 31, and two sets of mounting seats 361 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the moving block 36, with a fixed shaft 362 connected to the two sets of mounting seats 361; a first connecting rod 35 is rotatably disposed at one end on a rotating shaft 22, and the other end of the first connecting rod 35 is rotatably connected to a mounting post 341; a second connecting rod 37 is rotatably disposed at one end on a mounting post 341, and the other end of the second connecting rod 37 is rotatably connected to a fixed shaft 362.

[0027] Specifically, the two ends of the buffer layer 31 are connected to the fixed base 23 and the movable block 36 respectively, and the buffer layer 31 is sealed with the fixed base 23 and the movable block 36 by a sealing strip, so that the movable block 36 can move up and down within the buffer layer 31.

[0028] Specifically, the horizontal adjustment mechanism 4 is located above the moving block 36. The horizontal adjustment mechanism 4 includes an adjusting plate 41, a load-bearing plate 42, and a connecting block 43. The load-bearing plate 42 is located above the moving block 36, and a hemisphere 421 is located below the load-bearing plate 42. A rotating groove is provided on the moving block 36, and the hemisphere 421 is located in the rotating groove. The adjusting plate 41 is located on the outside of the load-bearing plate 42, and the adjusting plate 41 is a regular hexagon. The adjusting plate 41 is connected to the load-bearing plate 42 through the connecting block 43. A motion cavity 431 is provided in the connecting block 43, and a balancing mechanism 5 is provided in the motion cavity 431.

[0029] Specifically, in the initial state, the fixed seat 23 and the moving block 36 are in a hollow state. When the ship encounters strong winds and waves, the ship moves up and down. The load-bearing plate 42 drives the moving block 36 to reciprocate against the inner wall of the buffer layer 31. The reciprocating motion of the moving block 36 against the inner wall of the buffer layer 31 uses the first connecting rod 35 and the second connecting rod 37 to drive the sliding block 34 to move within the limiting groove 331, thereby reducing the vibration amplitude of the up and down movement of the monitoring device.

[0030] Specifically, the balancing mechanism 5 includes a fixed rod 51, a first electromagnet 52, a second electromagnet 53, and a counterweight 54. Two sets of fixed rods 51 are symmetrically arranged inside the motion cavity 431. A first electromagnet 52 is arranged at one end of the fixed rod 51 near the load-bearing plate 42, and a second electromagnet 53 is arranged at the other end of the fixed rod 51 near the adjusting plate 41. A counterweight 54 is arranged at the middle position between the first electromagnet 52 and the second electromagnet 53. When the counterweight 54 is in the middle position, the adjusting plate 41 is in a balanced state.

[0031] Specifically, each of the connecting blocks 43 is equipped with a sensor. The sensor is used to detect the angle between the connecting block 43 and the sea surface. When the angle between the connecting block 43 and the sea surface exceeds a preset value, the first electromagnet 52 drives the counterweight block 54 to move on the fixed rod 51, thereby making the entire floating platform in a balanced state.

[0032] Working principle and process: Before the ship sets sail, the operator first installs the mounting platform 1 onto the ship via the mounting holes 11, using bolts or screws for detachable connection. When the ship encounters wind and waves at sea, especially when the waves are large, the ship vibrates significantly. The moving block 36 experiences a large downward impact within the buffer layer 31, causing it to move downwards. This movement, via the second connecting rod 37 on the mounting base 361, drives the sliding block 34 to move within the limiting groove 331. The movement of the sliding block 34 within the limiting groove 331 causes the first connecting rod 35 to swing on the mounting base 361, resulting in the entire device moving downwards. Block 36 and sliding block 34 form a syringe-like structure within the buffer layer 31. Moving block 36 moves downward to compress the internal gas. As the volume decreases, the gas is rapidly compressed. Subsequently, the compressed gas expands, pushing moving block 36 upward to rebound, thereby reducing the vibration amplitude of the overall device. The faster the impact, the greater the resistance and the stronger the buffering effect. When the impact is smaller, the resistance is smaller, thus enabling it to adapt to various sea surface winds and waves. When the wind and waves are smaller, the force of moving block 36 compressing the gas downward is smaller. Moving block 36 will be pushed upward by the expansion of the internal compressed gas. This setting can significantly reduce the vibration caused by the ship encountering wind and waves.

[0033] Meanwhile, the leveling mechanism can adjust its level according to the size of the waves and the ship's tilt. When the sensor detects that the angle between the connecting block 43 and the sea surface exceeds the preset value, the corresponding electromagnet 52 inside the connecting block 43 is energized. The energized electromagnet 52 generates an attractive force, causing the counterweight 54 to move on the fixed rod 51, thus preventing the floating platform from tilting due to waves. When the detected angle meets the preset value, the second electromagnet 53 is energized, causing the counterweight 54 to return to its initial position, thus preventing the counterweight 54 from causing the adjusting plate 41 to tilt, further improving the horizontal stability of the adjusting plate 41. The hemisphere 421 set under the load-bearing plate 42 cooperates with the rotating groove on the moving block 36. When the adjusting plate 41 adjusts its level, the load-bearing plate 42 can move in the rotating groove through the hemisphere 421, thus preventing the load-bearing plate 42 from getting stuck during the adjustment process, which would cause errors in the meteorological data monitored by the monitoring device.

[0034] The above embodiments are merely exemplary embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. The scope of protection of the present invention is defined by the claims. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications or equivalent substitutions to the present invention within the scope of its essence and protection, and such modifications or equivalent substitutions should also be considered to fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
