Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of marine ecological restoration technology, and more specifically, it relates to a brown algae anti-shedding and fixing device. Background Technology

[0002] Under complex hydrodynamic conditions such as wind, waves, and tides, brown algae are easily detached from the surface of reefs, which can easily lead to a reduction or disappearance of the brown algae field area.

[0003] Currently, the main methods for fixing brown algae in reef environments include rope binding, cement burial, and integrated seed clamps. Rope binding is simple to operate, but it cannot adapt to the unevenness of the reef surface; the binding points are prone to loosening, and the ropes themselves are easily eroded by ocean currents or biofouling. While cement burial provides significant holding force, it causes permanent damage to the reef and the brown algae attachment site, making it unsuitable for ecological restoration scenarios requiring later adjustments or reversible operations. Integrated seed clamps typically integrate the clamping structure with the base, fixing it to the reef via rods or bolts during installation. However, the base is often a rigid flat plate; when the reef surface has significant undulations, the base cannot fully conform to the reef, leading to uneven stress and loosening after fixing. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide a brown algae anti-peeling fixing device to solve the technical problems of unreliable fixing, inflexible clamping position adjustment and difficulty in adhering to reefs in existing brown algae fixing methods.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in this application is as follows: A brown algae-preventing and fixing device is provided, comprising: The base has a flexible structure and a contact surface facing the reef surface; the contact surface is in contact with the reef surface. An anchoring assembly, disposed on the base, for securing the base to the reef; and The clamping mechanism includes a first clamping member, a second clamping member, and a locking member; both the first clamping member and the second clamping member are detachably connected to the base, and the first clamping member and the second clamping member can open and close relative to each other; the locking member is detachably installed between the first clamping member and the second clamping member. When the first clamping member and the second clamping member are closed, the first clamping member and the second clamping member form a clamping cavity for accommodating brown algae, and the locking member is adapted to lock the first clamping member and the second clamping member.

[0006] In one possible implementation, the base includes: Multiple columns arranged in an array; gaps between adjacent columns for brown algae to extend from; each column has a slot on its top surface; and Multiple connecting parts, made of flexible material, are arranged alternately with the multiple columns; the two ends of each connecting part are respectively fixedly connected to the outer walls of two adjacent columns. When the base is placed on the reef, the connecting part is adapted to undergo elastic deformation so that the mating surface fits the surface of the reef.

[0007] In one possible implementation, the anchoring component includes: At least one retaining sleeve is fitted onto the column located at the edge; A fixing plate is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing sleeve, and the fixing plate has mounting holes; an expansion bolt passes through the mounting holes. The expansion bolts are configured to be inserted into pre-drilled fixing holes in the reef.

[0008] In one possible implementation, the clamping mechanism further includes: A first connecting post is rotatably connected to one end of the first clamping member and rotatably connected to one end of the second clamping member; and The second connecting post is arranged at a distance from the first connecting post; when the first clamping member and the second clamping member are closed, the other end of the first clamping member is adapted to engage with the second connecting post, and the other end of the second clamping member is adapted to engage with the second connecting post. The bottom surfaces of the first connecting column and the second connecting column are both equipped with coaxially arranged plug rods. When the clamping mechanism is installed on the base, the plug rods are adapted to be inserted into the plug grooves on either of the columns.

[0009] In one possible implementation, the insertion slot has a coaxially arranged snap ring, and the inner diameter of the snap ring is smaller than the inner diameter of the insertion slot; the insertion rod has a coaxially arranged snap groove, and the outer diameter of the snap groove is smaller than the outer diameter of the insertion rod; when the insertion rod is inserted into the insertion slot, the snap ring is adapted to be embedded in the snap groove.

[0010] In one possible implementation, the outer wall of the column has a notch that penetrates through itself and communicates with the insertion slot.

[0011] In one possible implementation, the brown algae-preventing fixing device further includes: A protective net is installed around the clamping mechanism and is detachably connected to the base; the mesh of the protective net is for the leaves of brown algae to extend out.

[0012] In one possible implementation, the protective netting is provided with a plurality of the plug-in rods at intervals along its edge; when the protective netting is installed on the base, the plug-in rods are adapted to be inserted into the plug-in slots on any one of the columns.

[0013] In one possible implementation, flexible clamping blocks are provided on opposite sides of the first clamping member and the second clamping member, the flexible clamping blocks being used to contact brown algae.

[0014] In one possible implementation, the first clamping member has a first through hole facing the second clamping member, and the second clamping member has a second through hole coaxial with the first through hole; the locking member includes: A connecting rod having a head and a rod portion, the rod portion having a radially opening pin hole; and A pin, used to pass through the pin hole; When the first clamping member and the second clamping member are closed, the connecting rod is adapted to pass through the first through hole and the second through hole in sequence, so that the head and the pin hole are respectively located on both sides of the clamping mechanism, and the position of the connecting rod is fixed by inserting the pin into the pin hole.

[0015] In practical application, the brown algae anti-peeling fixing device provided in this application requires the operator to first place the base in the target reef area and use the anchoring components to securely fix the base to the reef surface, so that the contact surface of the base is closely attached to the reef, thus completing the stable construction of the infrastructure.

[0016] Subsequently, based on the distribution location and growth orientation of the brown algae and the local spatial conditions of the reef, the installation points were flexibly selected on the top surface of the base, and the clamping mechanism was assembled into place using a detachable connection method.

[0017] Next, manually operate the clamping mechanism to open the first clamping member and the second clamping member relative to each other, and smoothly place the rhizoids, stems and other attachment parts of the brown algae into the clamping area. Then close the two clamping members to form a clamping cavity that can completely accommodate the attachment parts of the brown algae.

[0018] Finally, the locking mechanism is engaged to keep the first and second clamping components in a closed and locked state, thus completing the fixation of a single plant or a cluster of brown algae. If multiple fixation points are required, the installation and clamping operations of the above-mentioned clamping mechanism can be repeated to quickly construct an array of brown algae adapted to irregular reef morphology on the seabed.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the brown algae anti-stripping fixing device provided in this application provides on-site adaptability and operational flexibility by designing the base and clamping mechanism as separate and detachable structures.

[0020] The flexible base can independently achieve a stable fit with the reef with the help of anchoring components, ensuring a reliable fixed foundation even when facing uneven reef surfaces; while the clamping mechanism can adjust the distribution position on the top surface of the base as needed, completely breaking the defects of traditional integrated fixing devices that are limited by reef terrain, allowing the attachment points of brown algae to be optimally arranged according to the water flow direction and growth space.

[0021] The closed clamping cavity, combined with the locking component, provides a space for the brown algae to attach, which can reliably prevent water flow from peeling off and avoid excessive squeezing damage, effectively improving the survival rate of brown algae colonization.

[0022] This modular approach not only simplifies underwater construction steps but also facilitates the replacement or addition of individual clamping mechanisms in the later stages, enhancing the practicality and economy of the entire device in marine ecological restoration and brown algae cultivation scenarios.

Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature.

[0030] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 8 The brown algae anti-stripping fixing device provided in this application will now be described. The brown algae anti-stripping fixing device includes a base 1, an anchoring component 2, and a clamping mechanism.

[0031] The base 1 adopts a flexible structure and has a bonding surface facing the reef surface; the bonding surface is bonded to the reef surface.

[0032] Anchoring component 2 is installed on base 1 to fix base 1 to the reef.

[0033] The clamping mechanism includes a first clamping member 3, a second clamping member 4, and a locking member 12; both the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 are detachably connected to the base 1, and the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 can open and close relative to each other; the locking member 12 is detachably installed between the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4. The locking member 12 can be a wire binding, bolt connection, or snap-fit.

[0034] When the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 are closed, the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 form a clamping cavity for accommodating brown algae 13, and the locking member 12 is adapted to lock the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4.

[0035] During installation, first place the base 1 with the contact surface facing the reef, and use the anchoring component 2 to fix the base 1 to the surface of the reef. Then, install the first clamping component 3 and the second clamping component 4 onto the base 1, open the two clamping components to insert the brown algae 13 seedlings or rhizoids, close the clamping components to form a clamping cavity, and finally lock the two clamping components with the locking component 12.

[0036] The flexible base 1 adapts to the irregular surface of the reef to achieve a close fit, the anchoring component 2 provides a solid foundation, and the brown algae 13 is held and protected by an openable and detachable clamping mechanism. The clamping cavity restricts the displacement of the brown algae 13, thereby resisting the scouring of the water flow.

[0037] The base 1 can be made of silicone or rubber to enhance its conformability, the clamping parts can be made of different curvatures to accommodate brown algae 13 of different sizes, and the locking component 12 can also be in the form of a spring buckle.

[0038] By adopting the above technical solution, through the combination of flexible bonding and mechanical clamping, the brown algae 13 is effectively prevented from peeling off from the reef, which improves the fixation success rate of brown algae 13 during transplantation or repair. In addition, each component is detachable, which facilitates maintenance and reuse.

[0039] It should be further noted that the brown algae anti-peeling fixing device provided by the present invention is not limited to the clamping and fixing of brown algae, but can also be applied to the clamping and fixing of seaweeds such as seaweed, Sargassum, and Undaria pinnatifida.

[0040] Further, please refer to Figures 1 to 4 and Figure 7 As a specific embodiment of the brown algae anti-stripping fixing device provided by the present invention, the base 1 includes multiple columns 1-1 and multiple connecting parts 1-2.

[0041] Multiple columns 1-1 are arranged in an array, and the gaps between adjacent columns 1-1 are used for brown algae 13 to extend out; each column 1-1 has a plug-in groove 7 on its top surface.

[0042] Multiple connecting parts 1-2 are made of flexible material and are arranged alternately with multiple columns 1-1; the two ends of each connecting part 1-2 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of two adjacent columns 1-1 respectively.

[0043] When the base 1 is placed on the reef, the connecting part 1-2 is adapted to undergo elastic deformation so that the mating surface fits the surface of the reef.

[0044] During operation, the base 1, which is formed by the interlaced connection of multiple columns 1-1 and flexible connecting parts 1-2, is laid on the reef. The connecting parts 1-2 undergo elastic deformation due to the undulation of the reef surface, so that the bottom surface of each column 1-1 automatically fits the reef surface, and the stem of brown algae 13 can freely extend and grow from the gap between the columns 1-1.

[0045] A biomimetic flexible base is constructed by using multiple columns 1-1 arranged in an array and multiple flexible connecting parts 1-2. The elastic deformation of the connecting parts 1-2 absorbs the unevenness of the reef surface, disperses the concentrated stress, and makes the entire base 1 fit like a net.

[0046] The connecting part 1-2 can be injection molded using thermoplastic elastomer, and the column 1-1 can be designed as a polygonal column to increase the porosity. The array can be arranged in a hexagonal close-packed pattern to further improve space utilization.

[0047] If the stem of brown algae 13 is larger than the gap between column 1-1, the workers can increase the gap by cutting off part of column 1-1 so that the stem of brown algae 13 can pass through.

[0048] By adopting the above technical solution, the adaptability and fit of the base 1 to the reef are guaranteed, and sufficient growth channels are provided for the brown algae 13. This avoids the problem of the brown algae 13 being suffocated or hindered from growing due to the closure of the base 1. At the same time, the insertion groove 7 on the column 1-1 provides a standardized installation point for the subsequent clamping mechanism.

[0049] Further, please refer to Figures 1 to 4 As a specific embodiment of the brown algae anti-peeling fixing device provided by the present invention, the anchoring component 2 includes a fixing sleeve 2-1 and a fixing plate 2-2.

[0050] The fixing sleeve 2-1 is fitted onto the column 1-1 located at the edge. The number of fixing sleeves 2-1 can be 1, 2, 4 or more, and the multiple fixing sleeves 2-1 are arranged at intervals along the edge of the base 1.

[0051] The fixing plate 2-2 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing sleeve 2-1, and the fixing plate 2-2 is provided with mounting holes; expansion bolts 2-3 are inserted into the mounting holes.

[0052] Among them, the expansion bolts 2-3 are configured to be inserted into the pre-drilled fixing holes on the reef.

[0053] In use, at least one fixing sleeve 2-1 is fitted onto the column 1-1 on the edge of the base 1, so that the mounting hole on the fixing plate 2-2 is aligned with the pre-drilled fixing hole on the reef, the expansion bolt 2-3 is inserted and tightened, and the expansion force of the expansion bolt 2-3 is used to press the fixing sleeve 2-1 and the edge of the base 1 onto the reef.

[0054] The principle is to rely on the frictional combination and mechanical locking between the expansion bolts 2-3 and the reef hole wall to fix the fixing sleeve 2-1 to the reef, and then anchor the edge of the base 1 through the sleeve relationship between the fixing sleeve 2-1 and the column 1-1 to prevent the base 1 from being lifted up as a whole.

[0055] Multiple fixing sleeves 2-1 can be set and evenly distributed around the base 1. The fixing plate 2-2 can extend perpendicular to the axis of the column 1-1 to increase the anchoring arm. The expansion bolt 2-3 can also be replaced with chemical anchors or nails to adapt to reefs of different hardness.

[0056] By adopting the above technical solution, efficient anchoring is achieved using expansion bolts 2-3. The installation process is simple, no large equipment is required, and the anchoring point is located on the edge column 1-1, which does not affect the layout of the internal clamping area. The overall fixation is stable and durable.

[0057] Further, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figures 5 to 7 As a specific embodiment of the brown algae anti-peeling fixing device provided by the present invention, the clamping mechanism also includes a first connecting column 5 and a second connecting column 6.

[0058] The first connecting post 5 is rotatably connected to one end of the first clamping member 3, and is also rotatably connected to one end of the second clamping member 4.

[0059] The second connecting post 6 is arranged at an interval from the first connecting post 5; when the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 are closed, the other end of the first clamping member 3 is adapted to engage with the second connecting post 6, and the other end of the second clamping member 4 is adapted to engage with the second connecting post 6.

[0060] The bottom surfaces of the first connecting post 5 and the second connecting post 6 are both equipped with coaxially arranged plug rods 8. When the clamping mechanism is installed on the base 1, the plug rods 8 are suitable for insertion into the plug grooves 7 on any one of the posts 1-1.

[0061] During clamping, first insert the plug rods 8 on the bottom surface of the first connecting post 5 and the second connecting post 6 into the plug grooves 7 of any two suitable positions of the post 1-1 on the base 1 to complete the positioning of the clamping mechanism; then, with the first connecting post 5 as the pivot, rotate the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 to open them, put in the brown algae 13 and close them, and fasten the free ends of the two clamping members to the second connecting post 6 to form a closed clamping cavity.

[0062] An openable frame is constructed by two connecting columns and a rotating connection. The first connecting column 5 serves as a hinge axis, and the second connecting column 6 serves as a closing locking end. The clamping force is maintained by the fastening structure, and the whole is detachably connected to the base 1 by a plug-in connection.

[0063] The first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 can be fastened to the second connecting post 6 using an elastic hook or magnetic structure. The plug rod 8 can have anti-detachment protrusions. The connecting post can be replaced with different heights to adapt to the stem length of brown algae 13.

[0064] By adopting the above technical solution, the clamping mechanism can flexibly select the installation position and angle on the base 1 to meet the requirements of different planting densities and directions. The opening and closing operation is intuitive and convenient, and it is completely detachable, making it easy to replace damaged parts.

[0065] Further, please refer to Figures 5 to 7 As a specific embodiment of the brown algae anti-stripping fixing device provided by the present invention, the insertion groove 7 has a coaxially arranged snap ring 7-1, and the inner diameter of the snap ring 7-1 is smaller than the inner diameter of the insertion groove 7; the insertion rod 8 has a coaxially arranged snap groove 8-1, and the outer diameter of the snap groove 8-1 is smaller than the outer diameter of the insertion rod 8; when the insertion rod 8 is inserted into the insertion groove 7, the snap ring 7-1 is adapted to be embedded in the snap groove 8-1.

[0066] When the connector rod 8 is inserted into the connector slot 7, the locking groove 8-1 on the connector rod 8 reaches the position of the locking ring 7-1 inside the connector slot 7. The locking ring 7-1 engages with the locking groove 8-1, forming an axial stop. Its working principle is an interference fit connection. The inner diameter of the locking ring 7-1 is smaller than the inner diameter of the connector slot 7, forming a convex ring inside. This convex ring engages with the necked groove on the connector rod 8, achieving the function of locking upon insertion.

[0067] The snap ring 7-1 can be made of an open elastic metal ring or plastic ring, which is stretched open during installation and then springs back into the snap ring groove 8-1. Alternatively, the snap ring 7-1 can be integrally formed in the insertion groove 7, and the head of the insertion rod 8 is chamfered for guidance.

[0068] By adopting the above technical solution, the connection process requires no additional tools. Reliable anti-loosening effect can be obtained simply by inserting the connector. It can withstand the impact and vibration of ocean currents without loosening. At the same time, it can be disassembled by a certain pulling force, thus achieving a balance between installation efficiency and connection reliability.

[0069] Further, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 and Figure 7 As a specific embodiment of the brown algae anti-peeling fixing device provided by the present invention, the outer wall of the column 1-1 has a notch 9 that penetrates through itself and communicates with the insertion groove 7.

[0070] When disassembling the clamping mechanism or protective net 10, a flat tool can be inserted into the notch 9 and used to pry out the connector 8 by pressing against the end or side wall of the connector 8. Alternatively, air or moisture can be expelled when the connector 8 is inserted. Working principle: The notch 9 breaks the seal of the connector groove 7, providing a channel to the bottom of the connector groove 7, and giving the column 1-1 a certain radial elasticity, assisting in the deformation of the locking ring 7-1 and the disengagement of the connector 8.

[0071] The notch 9 can be opened as a long slot along the axis of column 1-1, or multiple symmetrical notches 9 can be set to balance the force. The edges of the notch 9 can be rounded to prevent stress concentration.

[0072] By adopting the above technical solution, the notch 9 structure facilitates the separation operation after insertion, solves the problem of difficult disassembly under tight fit, and reduces the risk of damage to components during maintenance. Its advantages are particularly obvious after seawater immersion and expansion or mud jamming.

[0073] Further, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 8 As a specific embodiment of the brown algae anti-peeling fixing device provided by the present invention, the brown algae anti-peeling fixing device also includes a protective net 10.

[0074] The protective net 10 is installed around the clamping mechanism and is detachably connected to the base 1; the mesh on the protective net 10 is used for the leaves of the brown algae 13 to extend out.

[0075] After the brown algae 13 is fixed by the clamping mechanism, the protective net 10 is placed over the entire periphery of the clamping mechanism and its edge is detachably connected to the base 1. The leaves of the brown algae 13 extend outward through the mesh, while herbivores and large floating objects are blocked by the net.

[0076] The protective net 10 can establish a physical isolation barrier, protecting the vulnerable clamping parts and the base of the brown algae 13, allowing only the flexible leaves to grow outwards, thereby reducing mechanical damage and biological grazing.

[0077] The protective net 10 can be made of seawater-resistant polyethylene woven mesh or stainless steel fine mesh. The mesh size can be selected according to the width of the target protected blade, and the shape can be a hemispherical cover or an arched cage.

[0078] By adopting the above technical solution, the probability of brown algae 13 peeling off due to external interference in the early stage can be reduced, the survival rate can be improved, and the protective net 10 does not affect light transmission and water exchange, and can play a secondary fixing role for the clamping mechanism itself.

[0079] Further, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 8 As a specific embodiment of the brown algae anti-peeling fixing device provided by the present invention, the protective net 10 is provided with a plurality of plug-in rods 8 at intervals along its edge; when the protective net 10 is installed on the base 1, the plug-in rods 8 are adapted to be inserted into the plug-in slots 7 on any one of the columns 1-1.

[0080] By inserting the pre-set plug-in rods 8 along the edge of the protective net 10 into the corresponding plug-in slots 7 on the column 1-1 of the base 1 and engaging them, the protective net 10 can be fully covered. Its working principle is the same as that of the clamping mechanism. By using the standardized plug-in rod 8-plug-in slot 7 interface, the protective net 10 can be quickly and firmly attached to the base 1, and the tensile force can be evenly distributed.

[0081] The plug-in rod 8 can be equidistantly set along the edge of the protective net 10, and its length can be slightly longer to ensure sufficient embedding depth. The plug-in rod 8 can also be integrally injection molded with the protective net 10 or sewn with thread.

[0082] By adopting the above technical solution, the installation and disassembly process is simple, without the need for binding or additional locking. The modules of the entire device achieve high interchangeability and combination flexibility through a unified plug interface, which facilitates construction personnel to work in complex underwater environments.

[0083] Further, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As a specific embodiment of the brown algae anti-peeling fixing device provided by the present invention, flexible clamping blocks 11 are provided on the opposite sides of the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4, and the flexible clamping blocks 11 are used to connect with the brown algae 13.

[0084] When holding brown algae 13, the two clamping parts close, so that the flexible clamping block 11 directly contacts and wraps the stem or rhizoid of brown algae 13, and the gripping force is provided by the deformation of the flexible material.

[0085] The flexible clamp 11 uses a soft interface instead of a hard clamping component to apply pressure directly. The flexible surface adapts to the irregular surface of the brown algae 13 and increases the contact area, so that the clamping force is evenly distributed and stress concentration is avoided to prevent damage to the tissue.

[0086] The flexible clamp 11 can be made of sponge, food-grade silicone, foamed rubber or sodium alginate gel. The surface can be designed with striped or granular anti-slip textures, and drainage channels can be opened to prevent corrosion.

[0087] By adopting the above technical solution, while ensuring the fixation effect, it is possible to reduce the compressive damage to the brown algae 13, protect the integrity of the vascular tissue, and improve the survival rate and normal growth rate of brown algae 13.

[0088] Further, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As a specific embodiment of the brown algae anti-peeling fixing device provided by the present invention, the first clamping member 3 is provided with a first through hole 3-1 facing the second clamping member 4, and the second clamping member 4 is provided with a second through hole 4-1 coaxial with the first through hole 3-1; the locking member 12 includes a connecting rod 12-1 and a pin 12-2.

[0089] The connecting rod 12-1 has a head and a rod portion, the rod portion having a pin hole that opens radially. The pin 12-2 is used to pass through the pin hole.

[0090] When the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 are closed, the connecting rod 12-1 is adapted to pass through the first through hole 3-1 and the second through hole 4-1 in sequence, so that the head and the pin hole are located on both sides of the clamping mechanism respectively, and the position of the connecting rod 12-1 is fixed by inserting the pin 12-2 into the pin hole.

[0091] When the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 are closed, and the first through hole 3-1 is aligned with the second through hole 4-1, the rod part of the connecting rod 12-1 is passed through the two through holes in sequence until the head is against the outer wall of one clamping member and the pin hole at the end of the rod part is exposed on the other side. Then the pin 12-2 is inserted into the pin hole, and the axial position of the connecting rod 12-1 is locked by the radially protruding part of the pin 12-2 abutting against the outer wall of the clamping member.

[0092] The pin connection is adopted, and the connecting rod 12-1 bears the tension in the opening direction of the clamping part. The pin 12-2 acts as a quick-release locking part to prevent the connecting rod 12-1 from retracting, so as to achieve a quick-release locking mechanism.

[0093] The pin 12-2 can be a cotter pin or an R-type elastic pin to prevent it from falling off. Multiple pin holes can be opened on the rod to accommodate different clamping thicknesses. The head of the connecting rod 12-1 can be equipped with a knob for underwater operation.

[0094] By adopting the above technical solution, the above structure has strong locking force, good impact and vibration resistance, and only requires pulling out the pin 12-2 and pulling out the connecting rod 12-1 when unlocking. No complicated rotation is required, which is very suitable for underwater operation while wearing gloves and ensures the reliability of long-term fixation of brown algae 13.

[0095] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
