Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ocean surveying and mapping, in particular to a dual-probe mounting bracket for underwater acoustic equipment carried on a ship. Background Art
[0002] In recent years, the development of the ocean has entered the fast lane, and offshore projects have become increasingly numerous. In daily construction, underwater acoustic equipment is often needed to provide strong technical support for construction decisions. The transmitting transducer of the acoustic equipment usually works underwater, which requires each set of acoustic equipment to be equipped with a corresponding mounting bracket. However, the deck space of general engineering ships is compact, and other underwater acoustic interference at the selected installation location must be avoided. There are few ideal installation locations for acoustic equipment. Underwater acoustic equipment is generally a precision instrument. Each installation and disassembly has a certain risk of damage, and it also wastes a lot of time. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model is implemented as follows: a dual-probe mounting bracket for underwater acoustic equipment carried on a ship, the main body of the mounting bracket is made of a stainless steel pipe, and includes a fixing unit, a connecting part and a carrying part connected in sequence from top to bottom, the fixing unit adopts a split structure, including a fixing base arranged on the side of the ship and a semicircular cover plate connected thereto by bolts, a through hole is formed between the fixing base and the semicircular cover plate, the through hole is perpendicular to the bow direction, the connecting part adopts an L-shaped structure, and is provided with a vertical pole and a cross bar, the cross bar is movably inserted into the through hole, the cross bar is provided with a limit block at the end away from the vertical pole, and two front and rear symmetrical lifting ears are provided at the bottom of the vertical pole, the carrying part is provided with a short section connected to the vertical pole and a cross arm connected to the short section, and two front and rear mounting flanges are fixed under the cross arm.
[0005] A reinforcing rib plate is arranged at the connection between the vertical rod and the horizontal rod.
[0006] The lifting lug adopts a U-shaped structure.
[0007] The limiting block is welded on the cross bar.
[0008] The reinforcing rib plate adopts a triangular structure.
[0009] The utility model has the following advantages and technical effects: by arranging two front and rear mounting flanges on the carrying part, the bracket can carry two probes at the same time; by adopting a structure in which the connecting part and the fixing unit are movably connected and by arranging lifting ears on both sides of the connecting part, the lifting ears are used to connect the traction rope, and the bracket can be placed in a set state by traction, that is, when the underwater acoustic equipment is working, the bracket is centered and stable underwater, and when the underwater acoustic equipment is not working, the bracket is lifted out of the water, thereby reducing the number of times the underwater acoustic equipment is installed and disassembled, avoiding damage to the underwater acoustic equipment, and reducing the workload, reducing work intensity, and improving construction efficiency while reducing the risk of damage to the underwater acoustic equipment.
