[0025] Example 1

[0026] Reference Figures 1 to 3This embodiment provides an alarm beacon based on AIS technology, characterized in that it includes a base 101, a counterweight 102, a support column 103, a support ring 104, a detection device 105 and an alarm device 106; the bottom of the base 101 is connected to the counterweight 102, the support column 103 is installed on the upper surface of the base 101, the upper surface of the support column 103 is fixedly connected to the support ring 104, the detection device 105 and the alarm device 106 are both installed on the top of the support ring 104, and the control component is installed inside the support column 103. Specifically, the shell of the base 101 uses LLDPE polyethylene imported from South Korea as raw material, which is formed by rotational molding in one step, and is filled with polystyrene foam. The overall color can be (yellow / orange / dark red / white). The center of the buoy is connected by stainless steel rings at both ends of the M24 screw, and the barrel body is affixed with maritime reflective tape! It has the following characteristics:

[0027] 1. Impact resistance: The outer shell is made of rotational plastic material, and the internal polyurethane foam is impact-resistant.

[0028] 2. Corrosion resistance: The buoy shell is made of PE in one-step molding, which is resistant to acid, alkali and seawater corrosion.

[0029] 3. Maintenance-free: No maintenance is required during use.

[0030] 4. Long service life, the service life can reach more than 15 years.

[0031] 5. High environmental protection, made of environmentally friendly plastic LLDPE material, reaching food grade.

[0032] 6. It is light in weight, and the flood buoy will not be tilted as a whole when encountering a typhoon.

[0033] The base 101 is in the shape of a disk, and the bottom plane of the base 101 is hemispherical and immersed in water, and the center of gravity is located near the center of its bottom, but slightly deviated from the center of the bottom. The base 101 is connected to the counterweight body 102 by a chain through an M24 screw at the bottom, and its center of gravity is located at the lowest point, which is the key to its stability. When the base 101 is in an upright state, its center of gravity is the lowest, and the navigation mark is in a stable equilibrium state. In this state, even if it is slightly disturbed by external forces, the tumbler can return to its original position through its own adjustment. When the navigation mark is tilted by external forces, its center of gravity will rise. Due to the effect of gravity, the base 101 will generate a restoring torque pointing to its bottom. This restoring torque will restore the base to its original upright position. During the swinging process, the bottom of the navigation mark will generate resistance with the water. This resistance will hinder the swing of the navigation mark, causing its swing amplitude to gradually decrease, and finally return to the upright state. The hemispherical shape of the bottom makes the center of gravity lower, and the heavier bottom material increases the size of the restoring torque, thereby improving the stability of the navigation mark. This center of gravity design allows it to automatically return to its original position when subjected to external forces, ensuring its stability and reliability. At the same time, its corrosion resistance and strong weather resistance also give it a long service life in the marine environment. Due to its special design, it has the characteristics of wind and wave resistance and impact resistance, compact and reasonable structure, simple installation and excellent performance. In addition, they usually have good toughness and resistance to environmental stress cracking, and can withstand various challenges of the marine environment. The upper surface of the base 101 is fixedly installed with a support column 103, and the shape of the support column 103 is a "hexagonal" long column. The interior of the support column 103 is configured as an accommodating cavity, and the side wall of the support column 103 is installed with a number of solar panels 107. The support column 103 is fixedly installed at the center position of the upper surface of the base 101. In order to facilitate the maintenance of items in the support column 103, a movable door 108 is opened on one of the side walls of the support column 103, and a handle 109 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the door panel. The door panel is connected to the side wall of the support column 103 through a hinge. In order to facilitate the provision of power to the alarm beacon, solar panels 107 are fixedly installed on the remaining surfaces of the support column 103. The power generated by the solar panel 107 is stored in a battery pack. The battery pack is placed inside the support column 103, and the battery pack is connected to the solar panel 107 through an inverter; a cover plate is movably installed on the top of the support column 103, and the size of the cover plate is adapted to the upper opening of the support column 103. A sealing layer is provided between the cover plate and the support column 103, which can make the cover plate and the support column 103 better closed and prevent rainwater from entering the support column 103.In order to improve the accuracy of the detection device 105 and the alarm device 106, a support ring 104 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support column 103. The diameter of the support ring 104 is larger than the diameter of the support column 103. The support ring 104 is fixedly connected to the support column 103 through a plurality of support rods 111. Because the alarm device is installed in the navigation mark, when the navigation mark is collided or impacted by a large force, the collision alarm will be activated and an alarm will be sounded. At the same time, when a ship approaches, the detection device will identify the ship and an alarm will be sounded to remind the passing ship. The probability of the navigation mark being collided can be reduced by the detection device and the alarm device. An antenna 110, a detection device 105 and an alarm device 106 are fixedly installed on the upper surface of the support ring 104. A plurality of antennas 110 are provided. The detection device 105 and the alarm device 106 are relatively fixedly installed on the support ring 104. The detection device 105 and the alarm device 106 are both electrically connected to the controller inside the support column 103. The detection device 105 includes a positioning module, a sensor, and a signal filter. The alarm device 106 includes an audible and visual alarm, a collision alarm, and a fault alarm. The control component includes a controller, a data acquisition module, a fault module, a transceiver module, a communication module, and a sensor. The positioning module, sensor and signal filter are electrically connected to the controller, the sound and light alarm, collision alarm, fault alarm and fault module are electrically connected to the controller, and the data acquisition module, fault module, transceiver module, communication module and sensor are electrically connected to the controller. The positioning module can provide support for the position change of the alarm beacon. When the position of the beacon changes, the controller will trigger the alarm device to sound an alarm. The sensor uses a distance sensor, which can effectively sense the changes of surrounding ships and dangerous distances in advance, and transmit the relevant data to the controller through the signal filter and the communication module. The controller activates the alarm device according to the data from the sensor to remind passing ships. At the same time, the fault module is electrically connected to the solar cell group, the battery group and the controller. When overload, undervoltage or short circuit occurs, the fault module will transmit the fault information to the controller, and the controller will activate the alarm device to sound an alarm. In order to enhance the recognition of the alarm beacon, a beacon light is installed at the center of the support ring. The power of the beacon light is provided by a battery pack, which provides power support for the electrical facilities on the beacon. When the solar panels cannot generate electricity during thunderstorms, the electricity in the battery can supply the electrical facilities on the beacon for a week, thus ensuring the normal operation of the beacon to the greatest extent.

[0034] In summary, there is no restriction on the size and material of the base 101 and the navigation mark, and they can be selected as needed.
