Abstract

[0054] The accompanying drawings illustrate specific embodiments of this application, which will be described in more detail below. These drawings and descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the concept in any way, but rather to illustrate the concepts of this application to those skilled in the art through reference to particular embodiments. Detailed Implementation
[0055] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this application.
[0056] As mentioned in the background technology, satellite communication antennas, including radomes adapted to satellite communication antennas, need to be fixed unobstructed at the highest point of the buoy platform mast. The satellite communication antenna and radome at the highest point are easily damaged in extreme weather conditions, affecting the entire buoy communication system. When repairing or replacing the satellite communication antenna, the operators need to climb the mast to perform high-altitude operations, which are risky, have limited working windows, and are difficult and costly to operate.
[0057] Based on the above description, one or more embodiments of this application provide a buoy end equipment adjustment bracket and a buoy device. In the buoy end equipment adjustment bracket, the support frame is connected to the buoy, and the lifting frame slides on the support frame. Thus, the buoy end equipment located on the lifting frame can be lowered from a high position to a low position. Operators do not need to climb to the top of the buoy to operate the buoy end equipment, which helps to reduce the difficulty of offshore construction and reduce operational safety risks.
[0058] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, illustrates the solutions of the embodiments of this application.
[0059] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in the embodiment of this application, the buoy end device adjustment bracket includes a lifting assembly 100 and an angle adjustment assembly 200.
[0060] The lifting assembly 100 includes a support frame 110 and a lifting frame 120 slidably mounted on the support frame 110. The support frame 110 is used to connect with the buoy platform 400. The lifting frame 120 has a first adjustment state that slides relative to the support frame 110 in the height direction and a first locking state that is fixed relative to the support frame 110. The angle adjustment assembly 200 includes a base 230 mounted on the lifting frame 120. The base 230 is provided with a movable support platform 240. The support platform 240 has a second adjustment state that rotates relative to the base 230 about at least two non-parallel axes and a second locking state that is fixed relative to the base 230. The support platform 240 is used to fix the buoy end equipment.
[0061] As can be seen from the above description, in the buoy end equipment adjustment bracket and lifting assembly 100 provided in this application embodiment, the lifting frame 120 in the first debugging state can slide from a high position to a low position. The buoy end equipment located on the lifting frame 120 can be directly inspected and maintained on the buoy platform 400 without high-altitude operations, effectively reducing the difficulty of maintenance and labor costs. In the angle adjustment assembly 200, the support platform 240 in the second debugging state can flexibly adjust the tilt angle, making the position adjustment of the buoy end equipment on the support platform 240 more convenient, and making the buoy end equipment more adaptable to complex and ever-changing marine environments.
[0062] It should be noted that the buoy end equipment in this application embodiment refers to various functional devices installed on the buoy platform 400, such as satellite communication antennas, anemometers or other meteorological observation equipment in related technologies.
[0063] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the lifting frame 120 is provided with a plurality of positioning parts 121 spaced apart along the height direction, and the support frame 110 is provided with a plurality of connecting parts 111 spaced apart along the height direction; the lifting assembly 100 also includes a locking member 130, which is used to engage at least one positioning part 121 and connecting part 111 to switch the lifting frame 120 to a first locking state.
[0064] In this embodiment, both the lifting frame 120 and the support frame 110 have five legs. Each leg of the lifting frame 120 is provided with a positioning part 121, and each leg of the support frame 110 is provided with a connecting part 111. The positioning parts 121 and the connecting parts 111 are positioned corresponding to each other in the height direction. When the locking member 130 simultaneously engages with the coaxial positioning parts 121 and connecting parts 111, the lifting frame 120 and the support frame 110 are fixed, placing the lifting frame 120 in a first locking state.
[0065] In this example, the positioning part 121 is a insertion hole, and the limiting part 143 is a slot provided at the end of the operating lever 141. The positioning part 121 and the limiting part 143 are engaged by a common pivot pin.
[0066] The positioning part 121 is a positioning hole opened on the lifting frame 120, and the positioning parts 121 are evenly arranged along the height direction. The connecting part 111 is a connecting hole opened on the support frame 110, and the connecting holes are evenly arranged along the height direction. The positioning holes and connecting holes can be aligned one by one during the sliding process of the lifting frame 120. The locking member 130 can be a pin or a shaft pin. After the pin passes through the positioning hole and the connecting hole in sequence, it locks the sliding state of the lifting frame 120.
[0067] As an alternative implementation, one of the positioning part 121 and the connecting part 111 can be a through hole, and the other can be a positioning blind groove. The positional relationship between the positioning part 121 and the connecting part 111 can be interchanged. The locking member 130 can be a spring pin or a threaded connector, as long as the displacement effect of the lifting frame 120 can be fixed by the locking member 130.
[0068] The locking components 130, with varying heights, allow for corresponding adjustments to the height of the lifting frame 120 relative to the support frame 110. In extreme weather conditions, operators can easily use the lifting assembly 100 to actively lower and store the satellite communication antenna 300, preventing damage. Furthermore, the lifting assembly 100 has a simple and convenient overall structure. Compared to electrically driven equipment, its simple mechanical structure makes maintenance easier, allowing for direct on-site inspection and repair without the need for electrical professionals or complex electrical testing equipment, making it more suitable for the complex marine environment of ocean-going buoys. Moreover, the mechanical connection of the locking component 130 does not involve motors or other sensors. The fitting accuracy between the locking component 130, the positioning part 121, and the connecting part 111 remains stable over long-term use, without performance drift issues, and requires no additional power supply, making it more stable and reliable.
[0069] As an alternative implementation, the support frame 110 is provided with a guide rail 112 for guiding the sliding of the lifting frame 120, and the lifting frame 120 is provided with a guide wheel 122 that cooperates with the guide rail 112. Here, the guide rail 112 on the support frame 110 can be a C-channel steel structure, and the guide wheel 122 is restricted to slide within the guide rail 112 to prevent the lifting frame 120 from deviating during sliding. The guide rail 112 and guide wheel 122 reduce friction between the lifting frame 120 and the support frame 110, facilitating easy and effortless lifting or lowering of the lifting frame 120.
[0070] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in the embodiment of this application, the lifting assembly 100 further includes a manual drive component 140, which includes an operating lever 141 and a connecting rod 142.
[0071] One end of the operating lever 141 is provided with a limiting part 143 for engaging with the lifting frame 120; one end of the connecting rod 142 is hinged to the operating lever 141, and the other end is hinged to the support frame 110; the operating lever 141 is configured to swing relative to the support frame 110 under the action of an external force when the limiting part 143 is engaged with the lifting frame 120, so that the lifting frame 120 in the first debugging state slides relative to the support frame 110.
[0072] In the above embodiments, the limiting part 143 is used to engage with the crossbar on the lifting frame 120, the pin inserted into the positioning part 121, or other rigid protruding structures. The limiting part 143 may be a hook or... Figure 4 The recessed slot structure is shown in the diagram. The hinge point between the connecting rod 142 and the support frame 110 is located at the fixed position of the support frame 110, and this hinge point serves as the fulcrum for the swing of the operating lever 141.
[0073] The operating lever 141, connecting rod 142, and support frame 110 together constitute a linkage structure. When the operating lever 141 swings, the connecting rod 142 rotates around the hinge point, and the limiting part 143 at the end of the operating lever 141 moves accordingly. Since the limiting part 143 and the lifting frame 120 are locked together, the lifting frame 120 is restricted to move vertically in the direction of the guide rail 112 of the support frame 110, thereby converting the arc swing of the operating lever 141 into the vertical movement of the lifting frame 120.
[0074] Depend on Figure 3 and Figure 4 It can be seen that the limiting part 143 at the end of the operating lever 141 is used to engage with the positioning part 121 on the middle support leg 123 of the lifting frame 120.
[0075] In actual operation, the operator first pulls out the locking part 130 between the lifting frame 120 and the support frame 110. After the locking part 130 is disengaged from the positioning part 121 and the connecting part 111, the lifting frame 120 is in the first debugging state. In the first debugging state, the lifting frame 120 can slide freely along the support frame 110.
[0076] The operator then selects a positioning part 121 on the middle support leg 123 of the lifting frame 120 and inserts a pin into the positioning part 121. At this time, the pin is not engaged with the connecting part 111 on the support frame 110. The pin serves as a temporary force point. The operator engages the limiting part 143 at the end of the operating lever 141 with the protruding part of the pin. After the limiting part 143 hooks the pin, the operator presses down on the free end of the operating lever 141 away from the limiting part 143. The operating lever 141 rotates around its hinge point with the connecting rod 142 and the hinge point between the connecting rod 142 and the support frame 110. The limiting part 143 at the end of the operating lever 141 drives the pin to move upward, thereby causing the pin to drive the lifting frame 120 to slide upward along the support frame 110.
[0077] This also shows that after the operating lever 141 swings to a certain angle, the lifting frame 120 rises a certain distance. When the other positioning parts 121 on the lifting frame 120 are aligned with the corresponding connecting parts 111 on the support frame 110, the operator inserts other locking parts 130 into the aligned positioning parts 121 and connecting parts 111. The locking parts 130 lock the lifting frame 120 to the support frame 110, and the lifting frame 120 switches from the first debugging state to the first locking state, and the lifting frame 120 is fixed at a new height position.
[0078] When it is necessary to further raise the height of the lifting frame 120, the operator pulls out the pin on the middle support leg 123 of the lifting frame 120 and reinserts the pin into the lower positioning part 121 of the middle support leg 123. The new pin position corresponds to the starting point of the next lifting stroke. Subsequently, the locking parts 130 on the other support legs are pulled out. After the locking parts 130 are disengaged, the lifting frame 120 switches back to the first adjustment state. The lifting frame 120 can slide freely along the support frame 110. The limiting part 143 is then engaged with the pin on the middle support leg 123 again. Then, the free end of the operating lever 141 is pressed down, and the above lifting operation is repeated. By repeating the above process multiple times, the lifting frame 120 can be raised step by step to the required height.
[0079] Of course, the above-described step-by-step lifting operation of the lifting frame 120 can be reversed to achieve the descent of the lifting frame 120. When it is necessary to lower the lifting frame 120, the operator pulls out the locking parts 130 on the other outriggers of the lifting frame 120, so that the lifting frame 120 switches to the first adjustment state. The limiting part 143 is used to lock the pin on the middle outrigger 123, and the free end of the operating lever 141 is lifted upward. When the operating lever 141 swings upward, the limiting part 143 drives the pin to move downward. The pin drives the lifting frame 120 to slide downward along the support frame 110. After sliding into place, the locking parts 130 are reinserted into the other outriggers to lock the lifting frame 120 at the new height position.
[0080] This also shows that the raising and lowering adjustment of the lifting frame 120 does not require the operator to climb to the highest point of the lifting frame 120 to operate. The entire process can be carried out within the relevant height range of the manual drive component 140, which helps to avoid the risks of working at height.
[0081] By employing a manual drive component 140, the connection structure of the operating lever 141 utilizes the lever principle, allowing operators to apply a small force at the free end of the operating lever 141 to drive the lifting frame 120 upward, making it convenient and labor-saving. The linkage articulation connection method has fewer parts and a simpler fit, making it less prone to jamming in marine environments. Even slight corrosion does not affect the rotation of the articulated parts, resulting in excellent stability in use.
[0082] In addition, the above operation is actually a step-by-step lifting operation. Operators can gradually lift the lifting frame 120 to the required height by repeating the operation multiple times. The step-by-step lifting method does not require continuous external force, making the operation easier.
[0083] In some embodiments, the hinge point between the connecting rod 142 and the operating lever 141 is located on the side of the operating lever 141 near the limiting portion 143.
[0084] Here, one end of the operating lever 141 is provided with a limiting part 143, and the other end of the operating lever 141 is a free end. One end of the connecting rod 142 is hinged to the operating lever 141, and the other end is hinged to the support frame 110. The hinge point between the connecting rod 142 and the operating lever 141 is located between the limiting part 143 and the free end, and is closer to the limiting part 143. The above position design makes the operating lever 141 an effective lever. The part between the limiting part 143 and the hinge point of the connecting rod 142 constitutes a resistance arm, and the part between the hinge point of the connecting rod 142 and the free end of the operating lever 141 constitutes a power arm. Since the hinge point is closer to the limiting part 143, the length of the power arm is much greater than the length of the resistance arm. The operator can drive the limiting part 143 to move by applying a small force at the free end, which effectively reduces the physical exertion of the operator and makes it more convenient and labor-saving.
[0085] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the angle adjustment assembly 200 includes a first rotating component 210 and a second rotating component 220. The first rotating component 210 is connected to the base 230 and has a first adapter 212 that rotates relative to the base 230 about a first axis. The second rotating component 220 is connected to the first adapter 212 and has a second adapter 222 that rotates relative to the base 230 about a second axis. The support platform 240 is disposed on the second adapter 222.
[0086] Specifically, the first rotating component 210 also includes a first base 211 and at least two adjusting members 213. The first adapter 212 is hinged to the first base 211. The at least two adjusting members 213 are respectively disposed on opposite sides of the first base 211, and the adjusting members 213 are threadedly connected to the first base 211. The ends of the at least two adjusting members 213 that extend into the first base 211 are engaged with the first adapter 212 to limit the rotation of the first adapter 212.
[0087] In the above embodiment, the adjusting member 213 can be a threaded rod, and the first base 211 has an internal threaded hole. The threaded rod is screwed into the internal threaded hole and threadedly engages with the first base 211. Here, the end of the adjusting rod that extends into the first base 211 can be provided with a ball head structure, and the first adapter 212 can be provided with a ball-and-socket structure. The ball head structure and the ball-and-socket structure form a spherical snap-fit. This arrangement allows the first adapter 212 to have a certain floating margin during the adjustment process, which is beneficial for compensating for machining and assembly errors.
[0088] Two adjusting parts 213 respectively clamp the first adapter 212 from both sides. When the two adjusting parts 213 are tightened at the same time, the first adapter 212 is clamped and fixed in the current position and angle. When the angle needs to be adjusted, the operator can loosen one adjusting part 213 and tighten the other adjusting part 213 accordingly. Thus, the first adapter 212 is pushed by the two adjusting parts 213 to rotate around the first axis, changing the current angle position.
[0089] It should be noted that the second rotating component 220 can be configured with reference to the structure of the first rotating component 210. For example, the second rotating component 220 also includes a second base 221 and at least two rotating parts 223. The second adapter 222 is hinged to the second base 221. The at least two rotating parts 223 are respectively disposed on opposite sides of the second base 221, and the rotating parts 223 are threadedly connected to the second base 221. The ends of the at least two rotating parts 223 that extend into the second base 221 are engaged with the second adapter 222 to limit the rotation of the second adapter 222.
[0090] In the above embodiment, two rotating parts 223 respectively clamp the second adapter 222 from both sides. When the two adjusting parts 213 are tightened simultaneously, the second adapter 222 is clamped and fixed in its current position and angle. When the angle needs to be adjusted, the operator can loosen one rotating part 223 and tighten the other rotating part 223 accordingly. Thus, the second adapter 222 is pushed by the two rotating parts 223 to rotate around the second axis, changing its current angular position. Since the support platform 240 is fixed on the second adapter 222, the angle adjustment of the second adapter 222 and the first adapter 212 can correspondingly change the position of the satellite communication antenna on the support platform 240, thereby realizing the tilt angle adjustment of the satellite communication antenna 300.
[0091] The number of adjusting members 213 and rotating members 223 can be flexibly adjusted according to the actual scenario. For example, in this embodiment of the application, one adjusting member 213 is provided on each of the opposite sides of the first base 211, or two adjusting members 213 are provided on each of the opposite sides of the first base 211, thereby improving the fixing effect of the adjusting members 213 on the first adapter 212.
[0092] In some embodiments, the adjusting member 213 and the rotating member 223 are respectively provided with scale lines. The scale lines are used to indicate the screw-in depth and screw-in position of the adjusting member 213 and the rotating member 223. The operator can quantitatively adjust the rotation angle of the first adapter 212 and the second adapter 222 according to the scale lines, which is conducive to quickly resetting and positioning the preset angle during multiple maintenance and adjustment processes.
[0093] In this embodiment, a locking nut can be fitted onto the screw portion of the adjusting member 213 located outside the first base 211. The locking nut is threadedly engaged with the adjusting member 213. After the adjusting member 213 is locked in place, the operator can tighten the locking nut towards the first base 211 until it abuts against the outer wall of the first base 211. The locking nut prevents the adjusting member 213 from loosening and keeps it pressed against the first adapter 212. The rotating member 223 and the second base 221 can refer to the design of the adjusting member 213 and the first base 211 described above, which will not be repeated in this embodiment.
[0094] By setting up a first rotating component 210 and a second rotating component 220, the first rotating component 210 is responsible for adjusting the rotation angle in the first axis direction, and the second rotating component 220 is responsible for adjusting the rotation angle in the second axis direction. The two directions of adjustment do not interfere with each other and can be adjusted independently, which helps to improve the adjustment flexibility and accuracy of the satellite communication antenna 300. In addition, since the adjusting component 213, the first base 211, the rotating component 223, and the second base 221 are all connected by threaded engagement, the threaded connection has good self-locking ability, which helps to ensure the first adapter 212 and the second adapter 222 are fixed and stable, and avoids displacement due to buoy swaying.
[0095] In some embodiments, the free ends of the adjusting member 213 and the rotating member 223 are provided with handles to facilitate the operator to rotate the adjusting member 213 and the rotating member 223.
[0096] Here, the first and second axes mentioned above are not parallel in spatial position. Preferably, the orthographic projections of the first and second axes onto the base 230 are perpendicular to each other. This arrangement allows the support platform 240 located on the second adapter 222 to be angularly adjusted in two mutually perpendicular directions, achieving more flexible directional adjustment.
[0097] As an alternative implementation, the first axis and the second axis are set at an angle of 60° or 120°. This design is convenient for use in space-constrained scenarios, such as when multiple satellite communication antennas 300 are mounted on a buoy in a compact space. The installation space can be adapted by adjusting the angle between the first axis and the second axis.
[0098] An exemplary usage process of the buoy end device adjustment bracket provided in this application embodiment is as follows:
[0099] In its initial state, the lifting frame 120 is fixedly connected to the support frame 110 via the locking member 130, and the lifting frame 120 is in the first locked state. The buoy end equipment on the support platform 240 is located at the preset working height. When equipment maintenance is required or when encountering severe sea conditions, the operator pulls out the locking member 130 from the positioning part 121 and the connecting part 111, and the lifting frame 120 switches to the first debugging state. Subsequently, the pin is inserted into the positioning part 121 of the middle support leg 123 of the lifting frame 120, and the limiting part 143 is engaged with the pin. The free end of the operating lever 141 is pressed down, and the operating lever 141 drives the lifting frame 120 to slide down along the guide rail 112. After the lifting frame 120 descends to its position, the locking member 130 is reinserted to lock the lifting frame 120.
[0100] When the equipment needs to be raised to the working height, the operator pulls out the locking part 130, switching the lifting frame 120 to the first debugging state. Then, the pin is inserted into the positioning part 121 of the middle support leg 123. After the limiting part 143 is engaged with the pin, the free end of the operating lever 141 is pressed down. The lifting frame 120 slides upward a distance under the drive of the operating lever 141. The operator inserts the locking part 130 to temporarily lock the lifting frame 120. Then, the pin is pulled out and inserted into the lower positioning part 121. The above operation is repeated. Through multiple gradual lifting, the lifting frame 120 reaches the preset height. The locking parts 130 are inserted into the four support legs to lock the lifting frame 120 in the first locked state.
[0101] When adjusting the angle of the satellite communication antenna 300, loosen the adjustment component 213 on one side and tighten the adjustment component 213 on the other side. The first adapter 212 rotates around the first axis. Then loosen the rotating component 223 on one side and tighten the rotating component 223 on the other side. The second adapter 222 rotates around the second axis. The satellite communication antenna on the support platform 240 is aligned with the target satellite. After confirming the signal strength, all adjustment components 213 and rotating components 223 are kept in a locked state, and the angle adjustment component 200 is in a second locked state.
[0102] In another embodiment of this application, a buoy device is provided, including a buoy platform 400, on which a buoy end device adjustment bracket as in any of the previous embodiments is provided, and a buoy end device is provided, which is disposed on the buoy end device adjustment bracket.
[0103] Since the buoy device includes the buoy end device adjustment bracket as in any of the above embodiments, it has all the advantages of the buoy end device adjustment bracket.
