Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ocean current monitoring, in particular to an ocean current monitoring device. Background Technique
[0002] Ocean currents, also known as sea currents or ocean surface currents, refer to the horizontal flow of seawater along a certain direction with a relatively stable speed. It is a large-scale non-periodic movement from one sea area to another horizontally or vertically. Ocean currents can be divided into frictional currents, gradient currents and tidal currents. In order to understand the characteristics of ocean currents in detail, an ocean current monitoring device is needed to monitor ocean currents.
[0003] For ocean currents, due to the influence of the earth's rotation, seawater temperature difference and sea surface wind force, ocean currents often have various different changes, including changes in direction and flow velocity. Currently, ocean current detection is carried out by throwing monitoring devices into the sea. The monitoring devices float on the sea surface, and seawater passes through the floating bladder provided with circulation holes. By monitoring the flow rate and flow velocity of the water flow in the floating bladder, the flow direction and flow velocity of seawater can be monitored. When the seawater flow direction changes, the floating bladder needs to rotate to continue the measurement.
[0004] Regarding the existing related technologies, the inventor believes that there are the following defects: Since the floating bladder is fixed at the bottom of the monitoring device in the prior art and the height of the floating bladder is fixed, the floating bladder can only detect the changes in ocean currents at the sea depth where it is located, thus affecting the detection results and resulting in inaccurate detection results. Content of the Utility Model
[0005] In order to solve the technical problem that the existing floating bladder is fixed at the bottom of the monitoring device and the height of the floating bladder is fixed, and the floating bladder can only detect the changes in ocean currents at the sea depth where it is located, thus affecting the detection results and resulting in inaccurate detection results, the utility model provides an ocean current monitoring device.
[0006] The utility model is realized by adopting the following technical solutions: An ocean current monitoring device includes a floating platform and an extension rod. A fixed frame is fixedly connected to the top of the floating platform. A wind direction detection device is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed frame. Two solar panels are arranged on both sides of the fixed frame. A motor is arranged inside the floating platform. A threaded rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the motor. One end of the threaded rod is threadedly connected to a movable ring. Two connecting blocks are fixedly connected to both ends of the bottom of the movable ring. The bottoms of the two connecting blocks are fixedly connected to the top of the extension rod. The bottom of the threaded rod is rotatably connected inside the extension rod. A plurality of fixed rings are fixedly connected to the bottom of the extension rod. A plurality of floating bladders are installed on one side of the fixed ring.
[0007] Preferably, an inner cavity is machined inside the extension rod, and the bottom of the threaded rod is movably connected inside the inner cavity.
[0008] Preferably, limiting holes are machined at both ends of the movable ring, and slide rods are movably connected inside the limiting holes.
[0009] Preferably, the top of the slide rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the floating platform, and a limiting block is fixedly connected to the bottom of the slide rod. The limiting block is located outside the extension rod.
[0010] Preferably, a slot is fixedly connected to one side of the fixed ring, and a plug is fixedly connected to one side of the floating bladder. The plug is inserted and connected inside the slot.
[0011] Preferably, a pull block is arranged at one end of the slot. One end of the pull block is fixedly connected to a limiting rod. One end of the limiting rod penetrates through one end of the slot, and one end of the limiting rod is inserted and connected inside the plug. A return spring is arranged outside the limiting rod.
[0012] Preferably, one end of the return spring is fixedly connected to the outside of the slot, and the other end of the return spring is fixedly connected to the inner side of the pull block.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:
[0014] When the present utility model is in use, by starting the motor, the motor will drive the threaded rod to rotate. The threaded rod will drive the movable ring to move downward.

Thus, the floating bladder can be separated from the fixed ring, which is convenient for disassembling and overhauling the floating bladder. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Detailed implementation mode
[0020] Next, in combination with the accompanying drawings and the specific implementation mode, the present utility model will be further described. It should be noted that, on the premise of no conflict, the following described embodiments or technical features can be combined arbitrarily to form new embodiments.
[0021] Embodiment 1: Please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 3 , a marine current monitoring device of this embodiment includes a floating platform 1 and an extension rod 2. A fixed frame 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the floating platform 1. A wind direction detection device 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed frame 3. Two solar panels 5 are arranged on both sides of the fixed frame 3. A motor 8 is arranged inside the floating platform 1. A threaded rod 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the motor 8. One end of the threaded rod 9 is threadedly connected to a movable ring 11. Two connecting blocks 12 are fixedly connected to both ends of the bottom of the movable ring 11. The bottoms of the two connecting blocks 12 are fixedly connected to the top of the extension rod 2. The bottom of the threaded rod 9 is rotatably connected inside the extension rod 2. A plurality of fixed rings 6 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the extension rod 2. A plurality of float bladders 7 are installed on one side of the fixed ring 6;
[0022] Among them, when it is necessary to move the height of the extension rod 2, start the motor 8. The motor 8 will drive the threaded rod 9 to rotate. The threaded rod 9 will drive the movable ring 11 to move downward. The movable ring 11 will drive the connecting block 12 to move downward. The connecting block 12 will drive the extension rod 2 to move downward. The extension rod 2 will drive a plurality of fixed rings 6 to move downward. A plurality of fixed rings 6 will drive the float bladders 7 to move downward;
[0023] Secondly, a plurality of float bladders 7 are respectively fixedly arranged in different directions of the extension rod 2. Thus, by recording the flow rate flowing through the inside of different float bladders 7 and uploading it to the processor, the flow direction of the ocean current can be calculated, and at the same time, the change in the flow velocity of the ocean current can be detected;
[0024] Furthermore, an inner cavity 10 is machined inside the extension rod 2. The bottom of the threaded rod 9 is movably connected inside the inner cavity 10. When the threaded rod 9 drives the movable ring 11 to move downward, the movable ring 11 will drive the extension rod 2 to move downward through the connecting block 12. Thus, the bottom of the corresponding threaded rod 9 moves upward along the inside of the inner cavity 10;
[0025] Further, both ends of the movable ring 11 are processed with limit holes 15, and a sliding rod 13 is movably connected inside the limit holes 15. When the threaded rod 9 drives the movable ring 11 to move downward, the limit holes 15 inside the movable ring 11 will move downward along the outside of the sliding rod 13. By providing the sliding rod 13, when the movable ring 11 moves downward, it can maintain a stable state.
[0026] Further, the top of the sliding rod 13 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the floating platform 1, and the bottom of the sliding rod 13 is fixedly connected with a limit block 14. The limit block 14 is located outside the extension rod 2. By providing the limit block 14, it is possible to prevent the movable ring 11 from detaching from the outside of the sliding rod 13.
[0027] Further, a slot 16 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixed ring 6, and a plug 17 is fixedly connected to one side of the floating bladder 7. The plug 17 is connected to the inside of the slot 16 in a plug-in manner. When it is necessary to repair the floating bladder 7, the plug 17 is disengaged from the inside of the slot 16, so that the floating bladder 7 can be separated from the fixed ring 6, which is convenient for disassembling and repairing the floating bladder 7.
[0028] Further, a pull block 18 is provided at one end of the slot 16. One end of the pull block 18 is fixedly connected with a limit rod 19. One end of the limit rod 19 penetrates through one end of the slot 16, and one end of the limit rod 19 is connected to the inside of the plug 17 in a plug-in manner. A return spring 20 is provided outside the limit rod 19. When it is necessary to disassemble the floating bladder 7, the pull block 18 is pulled outwards. The pull block 18 will drive the limit rod 19 to move outwards, so that one end of the limit rod 19 is disengaged from the inside of the plug 17, and the plug 17 moves upwards and disengages from the inside of the slot 16, so that the floating bladder 7 can be separated from the fixed ring 6.
[0029] Further, one end of the return spring 20 is fixedly connected to the outside of the slot 16, and the other end of the return spring 20 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the pull block 18. When the pull block 18 is pulled outwards, the pull block 18 will stretch one end of the return spring 20. When the pull block 18 is released, the return spring 20 will reset and contract, driving the pull block 18 and the limit rod 19 to reset.
[0030] Working principle: By starting the motor 8, the motor 8 will drive the threaded rod 9 to rotate. The threaded rod 9 will drive the movable ring 11 to move downward. The movable ring 11 will drive the connecting block 12 and the extension rod 2 to move downward. The extension rod 2 will drive a plurality of fixed rings 6 and floating bladders 7 to move downward. Thus, when moving the positions of a plurality of floating bladders 7, it is convenient to monitor ocean currents at different depths.
