[0023] Embodiment 1

[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, a life raft release frame includes a base 1, an auxiliary plate 2, a release plate 3, a release driver 4, and two support plates 5. The base 1 is not limited to a structural shape, and can be in the shape of a plate and fixed on a ship deck or any structural member. The two support plates 5 are in the shape of a plate, arranged relatively parallel, and vertically fixed at both ends of the base 1. One end of the release driver 4 is hinged to the base 1 or the support plate 5, and the other end is hinged to the release plate 3; the release driver 4 is an electric push rod or a cylinder, and the release plate 3 can be driven to rotate relative to the support plate 5 by the extension and contraction of the release driver 4. The release plate 3 is in the shape of a plate and is hinged between the two support plates 5. The auxiliary plate 2 is in the shape of a plate and is connected between the two support plates 5. The release plate 3 is driven by the release driver 4 to rotate close to the auxiliary plate 2, so that a V-shaped fixed space 9 is formed between the two, and the release plate 3 is driven by the release driver 4 to rotate away from the auxiliary plate 2, so that a release space 10 is formed between the two.

[0025] In this embodiment, the auxiliary plate 2 is fixed obliquely between two supporting plates 5. Under normal conditions of the life raft release frame, the auxiliary plate 2 and the release plate 3 are in a V shape, that is, a V-shaped fixed space 9 is formed between the two for placing the life raft 8.

[0026] In this embodiment, the auxiliary plate 2 and the release plate 3 may be provided with a plurality of fixing holes respectively, which may be through holes or threaded holes of any structural shape, and may be used for steel wires to pass through and surround the life raft 8 for fixing; in this way, the structural stability may be enhanced.

[0027] In this embodiment, a connecting rod 6 is vertically fixed on the release plate 3, one end of the release driver 4 is hinged to the base 1 or the support plate 5, and the other end is hinged to the connecting rod 6; the connecting rod 6 plays the role of auxiliary connection. The number of release drivers 4 is several, and they are arranged at intervals according to actual conditions, such as the distance between the two support plates 5, the self-weight of the release plate 3, and other factors.

[0028] The working principle or the use process of this embodiment is: the release plate 3 is driven by the release driver 4 to rotate close to the auxiliary plate 2, so that a V-shaped fixed space 9 is formed between the two, and the life raft 8 is placed in the V-shaped fixed space 9 and fixedly installed with a steel wire rope. In the released state, the release driver 4 drives the release plate 3 to rotate away from the auxiliary plate 2, so that a release space 10 is formed between the two, and then the life raft 8 slides from the release space 10 by its own weight and is released.

[0029] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are: the release frame can facilitate the release of the life raft 8, and has a simple overall structure, low cost, convenient use, and easy manufacture and disassembly.

[0030] Embodiment 2

[0031] The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that the auxiliary plate 2 is hinged between two support plates 5, and the life raft release frame further comprises an auxiliary telescopic rod 7, one end of the auxiliary telescopic rod 7 is hinged to the base 1, and the other end is hinged to the auxiliary plate 2.

[0032] In this embodiment, an ear seat is welded and fixed on the base 1, an ear plate is welded and fixed on the auxiliary plate 2, and one end of the auxiliary telescopic rod 7 is hinged to the ear seat and the other end is hinged to the ear plate. The ear seat and the ear plate are conventional structures and will not be described in detail.

[0033] In this embodiment, the auxiliary telescopic rod 7 is an electric push rod or a cylinder. By extending and retracting the auxiliary telescopic rod 7, the auxiliary plate 2 can be driven to rotate relative to the support plate 5. In this way, the size of the V-shaped fixed space 9 can be adjusted, so that the release frame can adapt to life rafts 8 of different diameters, enhance applicability, and at the same time enable the auxiliary plate 2 to be used as a push plate to push the life raft 8 to release.

[0034] The working principle or the use process of this embodiment is: the release plate 3 is driven to rotate close to the auxiliary plate 2 by the release driver 4 (at this time, the auxiliary telescopic rod 7 can drive the auxiliary plate 2 to rotate so that the auxiliary plate 2 and the release plate 3 are close to each other) so that a V-shaped fixed space 9 is formed between the two, and the life raft 8 is placed in the V-shaped fixed space 9 and fixedly installed with a steel wire rope. When releasing, the release plate 3 is driven by the release driver 4 to rotate away from the auxiliary plate 2 so that a release space 10 is formed between the two, and at the same time, the auxiliary telescopic rod 7 drives the auxiliary plate 2 close to the release plate 3. At this time, the auxiliary plate 2 can be used as a push plate to push the life raft 8 to slide from the release space 10 combined with its own weight and thus be released.

[0035] The beneficial effect of this embodiment is that by hingedly arranging the auxiliary plate 2 and providing an auxiliary telescopic rod 7, the release frame can not only adapt to the fixed installation of life rafts 8 of different sizes, but also can quickly push the life raft 8 to slide from the release space 10 to be released, which is more convenient to use.

[0036] The above is only a specific implementation of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed in the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model shall be based on the protection scope of the claims.
