[0022] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the utility model for which protection is claimed, but merely represents selected embodiments of the present invention.

[0023] Please refer to the Figure 1 As shown, an auxiliary bracket for a depth sounder includes a ship's side 1 and a support tube 5. A clamping mechanism 8 for clamping and fixing the depth sounder is fixed at the lower end of the support tube 5, and a protective mechanism 7 for covering and protecting the clamping mechanism 8 is fixed at the lower end of the support tube 5. A support rod 2 that can be telescopically adjusted to the right is provided on the upper surface of the ship's side 1, and a fixing seat 3 for adjusting the support rod 2 left and right is fixed on the upper surface of the ship's side 1. A guide sleeve 6 is fixed to the right end of the support rod 2. The support tube 5 vertically passes through the guide sleeve 6 downward. A tightening mechanism 4 that elastically presses against the support tube 5 and locks the support tube 5 is fixed on the upper side of the support rod 2 near the right end. When the depth of the depth sounder is adjusted, the length of the support tube 5 can be adjusted by pulling the tightening mechanism 4. After the adjustment is completed, the tightening mechanism 4 is directly released, and the tightening mechanism 4 presses against the support tube 5 under the action of its own elastic force to lock it, thereby making the depth adjustment operation of the depth sounder more convenient and quick.

[0024] Please refer to the Figure 2As shown, the clamping mechanism 4 includes a fixed block 42 fixed on the support rod 2, a guide rod 41 is horizontally inserted through the center of the fixed block 42, and a clamping block 44 is fixed to the right end of the guide rod 41, and a spring 43 is sleeved on the portion of the guide rod 41 between the fixed block 42 and the clamping block 44. The spring 43 pushes the clamping block 44 to press against the support tube 5 for locking. By pulling the guide rod 41, the clamping block 44 is moved away from the support tube 5, thereby realizing the loosening adjustment of the support tube 5.

[0025] Please refer to the Figure 3 As shown, a rubber pad 441 is installed on the right side of the tightening block 44, and a plurality of clips 442 evenly arranged from top to bottom are fixed on the right side of the rubber pad 441. The friction force of the support tube 5 when it is tightened and locked is greatly enhanced by the rubber pad 441 and the clips 442 arranged on the rubber pad 441. A plurality of clips 443 are fixed on the left side of the rubber pad 441, and a slot 444 for clipping the clips 443 is provided on the right side of the tightening block 44. The rubber pad 441 is fixed in the slot 444 through the clip 443.

[0026] Please refer to the Figure 4 As shown, the support rod 2 includes a sleeve 21, a telescopic rod 23 is inserted at the right end of the sleeve 21, and an adjusting screw 22 is threadedly installed near the right end of the sleeve 21. The telescopic rod 23 is inserted in the sleeve 21 for telescopic adjustment, and the telescopic rod 23 is locked and fixed by the adjusting screw 22.

[0027] Please refer to the Figure 5 As shown, the fixing seat 3 includes a pressing sleeve 32 that is sleeved on the outside of the sleeve 21. The front and rear sides of the pressing sleeve 32 are fixed with mounting plates 31, and the upper side of the pressing sleeve 32 is threadedly installed with multiple fixing screws 33. The pressing sleeve 32 is sleeved on the outside of the sleeve 21 and the sleeve 21 is locked and fixed by the fixing screws 33.

[0028] Working principle: When using the depth sounder, clamp it on the clamping mechanism 8, then pull the guide rod 41 to make the tightening block 44 move away from the support tube 5 to adjust the length of the support tube 5. After the length of the support tube 5 is adjusted, loosen the guide rod 41 and the spring 43 pushes the tightening block 44 to press against the support tube 5 for locking. Then extend the telescopic rod 23 and lock it with the adjusting screw 22. Then adjust the sleeve 21 to extend outward. After the adjustment is completed, lock and fix it with the fixing screw 33, thereby completing the installation and fixation of the depth sounder for use in depth measurement.

[0029] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that the present invention is susceptible to various modifications and variations. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
