[0030] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present utility model of an above-water positioning identification device 1000 includes: a floating ball 500, a stabilizing device 100 and a counterweight anchor 200, wherein the floating ball 500 and the stabilizing device 100 are fixedly connected, one end of the counterweight anchor 200 is connected to the stabilizing device 100 through a cable 300, and the other end is fixed at a location where positioning is required, and the floating ball 500 floats on the water surface to mark the positioning point, so as to facilitate above-water drilling and geological mapping. The stabilizing device 100 includes a first shell 110, a counterweight assembly 120 and an elastic member 140, and the inner wall of the first shell 110 is connected to a connecting plate 130, and the connecting plate 130 is provided with a circular through hole 131, and the counterweight assembly 120 passes through the connecting plate 130 through the through hole 131. One end of the elastic member 140 is connected to the inner wall of the first shell 110, and the other end is connected to the lower end of the counterweight assembly 120. When the floating ball 500 shakes, the lower end of the counterweight assembly 120 swings, squeezing the elastic member 140 to generate a deformation force, and the opposing force of the elastic member 140 is transmitted to the floating ball 500 through the inner wall of the second housing 410 to stabilize the floating ball 500 and prevent it from tipping over. The elastic member 140 can be a spring or elastic rubber, and one or more elastic members can be provided.

[0031] Taking the case where there are multiple elastic members 140 as an example, when the buoy 500 floats on the water, it will be impacted by waves in multiple directions, so the tilting direction is not fixed. One end of the multiple elastic members 140 is arranged at intervals along the inner wall of the first shell 110, so that the multiple elastic members 140 can act on the lower end of the counterweight assembly 120 in different directions, provide reaction force to the buoy 500 in multiple directions, and improve the stability of the buoy 500.

[0032] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the weight assembly 120 includes a connecting column 123, a first weight ball 121, and a second weight ball 122. The connecting column 123 is inserted into the through hole 131, and the upper end is connected to the first weight ball 121, and the lower end is connected to the second weight ball 122. The first weight ball 121 is above the connecting plate 130, and the second weight ball 122 is below the connecting plate 130 and swings with the floating ball 500. A plurality of elastic members 140 are fixedly connected to the second weight ball 122, and different elastic members 140 are combined to provide both pulling force and thrust force for the second weight ball 122. For example, when multiple elastic members 140 are arranged relative to each other, the second counterweight ball 122 swings to one side, and the elastic member 140 in that direction will provide support force to the second counterweight ball 122, while the elastic member 140 opposite to the second counterweight ball 122 will provide pulling force. Under the joint action of the relative elastic members 140, the stability of the stabilization device 100 is maintained, thereby maintaining the stability of the float 500.

[0033] refer to Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the weight of the first counterweight ball 121 is less than that of the second counterweight ball 122, so that the second counterweight ball 122 can swing smoothly and can produce stronger squeezing on the elastic member 140, providing stronger deformation force, which is beneficial to maintaining the stability of the float 500 and reducing rollover.

[0034] refer to Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments of the utility model, the through hole 131 is circular, and the radius of the through hole 131 gradually increases from top to bottom. The circular through hole 131 provides conditions for the universal swing of the counterweight assembly 120, and can cope with impacts from all directions. The setting of the through hole 131 being small at the top and large at the bottom facilitates the control of the swing amplitude of the first counterweight ball 121 and the second counterweight ball 122. The second counterweight ball 122 requires a larger swing amplitude to deform the elastic member 140, while the first counterweight ball 121 has a smaller swing amplitude, which can reduce the overall offset of the counterweight assembly 120, thereby achieving a stable effect.

[0035] refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments of the utility model, the water surface rises at high tide, and the float 500 may pull out the counterweight anchor 200 under the action of buoyancy, resulting in positioning error, or be pulled by the counterweight anchor 200, and the float 500 is located below the horizontal plane, and cannot play the role of water marking. In order to solve this problem, the stabilizing device 100 also includes a second shell 410 and a winding assembly 420, and the winding assembly 420 includes a rotating rod 422 and a fixing frame 421, the fixing frame 421 is connected to the second shell 410, and the rotating rod 422 is rotatably connected to the fixing frame 421. The cable 300 is wound on the rotating rod 422. At high tide, the rotating rod 422 rotates and unwinds with the high tide, thereby extending the cable 300 and providing better positioning and marking effects.

[0036] refer to Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the winding assembly 420 further includes a tension sensor (not shown) and a motor 430, and the tension sensor can obtain the tension parameters of the cable 300. When the tide is low, the buoy 500 will follow the water surface to drop, so that the tension between the cable 300 and the counterweight anchor 200 becomes smaller. At this time, after the tension sensor detects the tension parameter, it will start the motor 430 to drive the rotating rod 422 to recycle the excess cable 300. Accurate positioning of the buoy 500.

[0037] refer to Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the winding assembly 420 further includes a first gear 423 and a second gear 424. The different sizes of the first gear 423 and the second gear 424 can adjust the speed ratio and torque in the transmission system. The motor 430 provides high speed and low torque, while the rotating rod 422 requires low speed and high torque. By setting different gear ratios, a smooth winding effect can be achieved and sufficient winding power can be provided.

[0038] refer to Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments of the utility model, the water positioning identification device 1000 further includes a third housing 441 and a rotating seat 442, the third housing 441 is provided with a rotating groove 444, which is used to cooperate with the rotating seat 442 to rotate, the motor 430 is located in the third accommodating cavity 443 formed by the third housing 441, the output end of the motor 430 is connected to the rotating seat 442, and the rotating seat 442 drives the rotating rod 422 to rotate through the second gear 424 and the first gear 423. The cooperation of the third accommodating cavity 443, the rotating groove 444 and the rotating seat 442 allows the motor 430 to be sealed and protected to prevent the motor 430 from being damaged due to water.

[0039] In some embodiments of the present invention, a reflective strip is provided on the surface of the float 500. The reflective strip allows the float 500 to be seen at night, serves as a mark, and enables operation at night.

[0040] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
