The detection device 312 is communicated with the sampling component and the drain tube 313 through an infusion tube 311 respectively.

[0023] More specifically, the power generation component includes a floating block 201 arranged at the lower part of the floating body 1. The floating block 201 is made of polyurethane foam and is an integrally formed structure processed by a cutting machine. A movable rod 203 and three limiting rods 202 are fixedly connected to the top surface of the floating block 201. The movable rod 203 and the limiting rods 202 are both in sealed sliding connection with the floating body 1. An elastic member 204 is arranged between the limiting rod 202 and the floating body 1. The elastic member 204 is a spring, and both ends of the elastic member 204 are fixedly connected to the limiting rod 202 and the floating body 1 respectively.

[0024] More specifically, the power generation component further includes a mounting plate 12 fixedly connected inside the floating body 1. A rotating shaft 209 is rotatably connected to the mounting plate 12. A first gear 205 and a second gear 206 are fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 209. A small gear 207 is rotatably connected to the mounting plate 12. A rack structure is arranged on the movable rod 203, and the movable rod 203 meshes with the first gear 205. The second gear 206 meshes with the small gear 207. A generator 208 is installed on the mounting plate 12. The input shaft of the generator 208 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 209 of the small gear 207, and the generator 208 is electrically connected to the battery 102.

[0025] More specifically, the sampling component includes a communication valve 302 fixedly connected inside the floating body 1. A liquid extraction pipe 301 is communicated with the bottom of the communication valve 302. A net is arranged around the liquid extraction pipe 301, and the net is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the floating body 1. The net can prevent the liquid extraction pipe 301 from being wound by foreign objects. A sealing cylinder 303 is communicated with the top surface of the communication valve 302. A push rod 305 is in sealed sliding connection inside the sealing cylinder 303. A piston 304 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the push rod 305. The piston 304 is in sealed sliding connection with the sealing cylinder 303. A rack structure is arranged on the push rod 305, and the push rod 305 meshes with the second gear 206.

[0026] More specifically, the connecting valve 302 includes a valve body 3021 fixedly connected inside the floating body 1. A valve ball 3022 is rotatably connected inside the valve body 3021. One end of a valve rod 3023 is fixedly connected to the valve ball 3022, and the other end of the valve rod 3023 is fixedly connected to a third gear 3024. A sliding rod 321 is slidably connected to the mounting plate 12. Rack structures are arranged on both sides of the sliding rod 321. A fourth gear 322 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 209. The sliding rod 321 is meshed with both the third gear 3024 and the fourth gear 322 at the same time.

[0027] During operation, when the wave surface rises, the wave drives the floating block 201 to move upward. Further, the floating block 201 presses the elastic member 204, causing the elastic member 204 to deform. At the same time, the floating block 201 drives the movable rod 203 to move upward. The movable rod 203 drives the first gear 205 to rotate through meshing transmission. Further, the first gear 205 drives the rotating shaft 209 to rotate. Further, the second gear 206 and the fourth gear 322 on the rotating shaft 209 both rotate. The second gear 206 drives the pinion 207 to rotate through meshing transmission. Further, the pinion 207 drives the input shaft of the generator 208 to rotate. Further, the generator 208 operates to generate electricity and replenish the power of the battery 102. In this way, the stability and reliability of power supply are improved, and the environmental adaptability and stability of the buoy in a complex marine environment are enhanced.

[0028] While the second gear 206 rotates, it drives the push rod 305 to move upward through meshing transmission. Further, the piston 304 moves upward. At the same time, the fourth gear 322 rotates and drives the sliding rod 321 to move upward through meshing transmission. The sliding rod 321 drives the third gear 3024 to rotate through meshing transmission. Further, the valve ball 3022 rotates. Further, the valve ball 3022 connects the sealing cylinder 303 and the liquid extraction pipe 301. And because the piston 304 moves upward, seawater can be sucked into the sealing cylinder 303.

[0029] When the wave surface descends, the elastic member 204 resets, driving the floating block 201 to move downward. Further, the movable rod 203 moves downward. The movable rod 203 drives the first gear 205 to rotate in the reverse direction through meshing transmission. Further, the first gear 205 drives the rotating shaft 209 to rotate in the reverse direction. Further, the second gear 206 and the fourth gear 322 on the rotating shaft 209 both rotate in the reverse direction. The second gear 206 drives the pinion 207 to rotate in the reverse direction through meshing transmission. Further, the pinion 207 drives the input shaft of the generator 208 to rotate. Further, the generator 208 operates to generate electricity and replenish the power of the battery 102.

[0030] While the second gear 206 rotates in the reverse direction, it drives the push rod 305 to move downward through meshing transmission, thereby causing the piston 304 to move downward. At the same time, the fourth gear 322 rotates and drives the sliding rod 321 to move downward through meshing transmission. The sliding rod 321 drives the third gear 3024 to rotate in the reverse direction through meshing transmission, thereby causing the valve ball 3022 to rotate in the reverse direction. Furthermore, the valve ball 3022 blocks the sealing cylinder 303 and the liquid extraction pipe 301. Since the piston 304 moves downward, seawater can be transported from the sealing cylinder 303 into the detection device 312 for detection. The seawater after detection is then transported through the infusion pipe 311 into the drain cylinder 313 and discharged back into the sea again. After repeating this process many times, the detection device 312 can accurately measure the oil content in the water, solving the measurement error caused by the influence of water flow vortices in traditional schedules and ensuring the provision of more accurate and reliable environmental data.

[0031] As Figure 1 shown, a solar panel 13 is installed on the top surface of the floating body 1. The solar panel 13 is electrically connected to the battery 102. The solar panel 13 can supplement the power of the battery 102 on sunny days. A warning light 7, a wind direction acquisition detector 6, and an antenna 9 are installed on the top surface of the solar panel 13. The warning light 7 can emit light at night to warn passing ships. The wind direction acquisition detector 6 can detect the wind speed and wind direction of the current sea area, facilitating the calculation of the flow rate and flow direction of the oil during an oil spill. An image acquisition device 8 is installed on the top surface of the warning light 7. The image acquisition device 8 facilitates the acquisition of the surrounding environment images. The antenna 9 is used for receiving and transmitting signals. The warning light 7, the wind direction acquisition detector 6, the antenna 9, and the image acquisition device 8 are all electrically connected to the circuit board 101. The signals collected by the detection device 312, the wind direction acquisition detector 6, and the image acquisition device 8 are all transmitted to the circuit board 101 through electrical signals, and then the circuit board 101 transmits the electrical signals to the position of the external monitoring personnel through the antenna 9, facilitating the monitoring personnel to observe the information.
