Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a hollow marine lamp, belonging to the technical field of marine navigation lamps. Background Art

[0002] According to the requirements of relevant shipbuilding codes, navigation lights, signal lights and antennas each have their own blind area limitations, and it is easy to interfere with each other, resulting in inconvenient layout.

[0003] Taking the anemometer and wind vane antenna as an example, the main function of this antenna is to measure the wind speed and wind direction relative to the ship. According to the equipment installation requirements, the antenna should be installed in a higher area with no obstruction around. In some existing ship types, positions similar to the required ones are occupied by all-round lights. If the anemometer and wind vane antenna are installed above the all-round light, the cables and base pillars of the anemometer and wind vane will block the light of the all-round light, forming a blind area (>6°) not allowed by the code.

[0004] To take into account the blind area requirements of both sides usually causes the following two problems:

[0005] 1. It is necessary to find another place to install the antenna, resulting in a large wind-whirl area in actual use. The measured wind speed and wind direction are inaccurate.

[0006] 2. In actual design, there are usually not only two types of lights and antennas with interfering distances. It is possible that in order to take into account the blind areas of both marine lights and antennas, the antenna and marine lights are set on platforms at different heights, and it is necessary to increase the size of the ship's mast (increase the diameter and height of the mast, or increase the area of the ship's mast platform), thus causing an increase in the amount of steel used and the overall cost. Content of the Utility Model

[0007] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a hollow marine lamp (signal lamp, navigation signal lamp) with a hollow interior for the antenna to be stacked on it. When the antenna is placed on the lamp, the antenna base is fixed on the top of the lamp, and the cable of the antenna passes through the hollow part of the lamp. It solves the problem of blind area interference, reduces the layout difficulty and the cost of the main mast, and improves the design efficiency.

[0008] The utility model specifically adopts the following technical solutions:

[0009] A hollow marine lamp includes a cylindrical member 1 with a hollow interior and lamp panels around it. A support device for supporting the anemometer and the cable of the anemometer pass through the cylindrical member 1 from bottom to top. The lower part of the support device is fixed on the ship's mast.

[0010] Preferably, the lamp panel is an LED lamp panel 2.

[0011] Preferably, the cylindrical member 1 is an octagonal prism structure.

[0012] Preferably, a lamp base 6 is provided at the bottom of the cylindrical member 1, and a cable interface 3 of the lamp is provided on the lamp base 6.

[0013] Preferably, the hollow marine lamp is an omnidirectional lamp.

[0014] Further, the omnidirectional lamp is a navigation lamp or a signal lamp.

[0015] Further, a lamp cover 4 is provided outside the cylindrical member 1, and a power supply unit 5 of the LED lamp board is arranged in the annular space between the lamp cover 4 and the cylindrical member 1, and the lower part of the power supply unit 5 is fixed on the lamp base 6.

[0016] Preferably, the cylindrical member 1 is fixed on the ship's mast.

[0017] Further, the cylindrical member 1 is a plastic part.

[0018] Even further, the lamp cover 4 is a plastic part.

[0019] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

[0020] 1) It solves the technical problems that devices such as antennas on other radar masts interfere with each other, form irradiation blind areas, resulting in inconvenient equipment layout, so that measures such as increasing columns and enlarging the equipment layout platform are needed to deal with it, thus causing an increase in cost and a decrease in design efficiency.

[0021] 2) The cylindrical member has a hollow structure, which is convenient for electrical accessories such as cables and struts (support devices) to pass through, reduces the problem of blind area interference between devices, makes the layout of ship mast electrical equipment more convenient, improves the design efficiency, and reduces the cost.

[0029] The present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0030] Embodiment 1 (comparative embodiment):

[0031] This embodiment is used as the prior art for comparison with Embodiment 2.

[0032] See Figures 1-3 , currently, marine navigation lights and signal lights mainly use lamp bodies in the shape of approximate cylinders, with incandescent lamps or light-emitting diodes 7 as the main light sources, and they are not hollow inside. For the ring-shaped lights, the stacking function cannot be provided without creating blind spots. Antennas and other lamps cannot be stacked on them, so the layout is inconvenient.

[0033] See Figure 4 , if other electrical equipment is to be stacked, the situation where the irradiation angle is blocked by the cable and blind spots are generated will occur as shown in the following figure.

[0034] It can be seen that the existing marine navigation lights and signal lights mainly use incandescent lamps. The incandescent lamp bulbs occupy most of the space inside the lamp and cannot provide the stacking function in the ring-shaped form. Another existing light source is the LED navigation light and signal light, which is mainly improved from the incandescent navigation light and signal light. The shape of this lamp is the same as that of the above-mentioned incandescent lamp.

[0035] The above structural settings of marine signal lights and navigation lights are prone to interference with other equipment on the radar mast such as antennas, forming irradiation blind spots, as shown in Figure 2 , resulting in inconvenient equipment layout. It is necessary to avoid this by means of increasing columns and enlarging the equipment layout platform, which increases the cost and reduces the design efficiency.

[0036] Embodiment 2:

[0037] Based on the traditional ring-shaped light, this embodiment opens a hole along the central axis of the ring-shaped light, changing the ring-shaped light from the original solid cylinder to the shape of two nested cylinders. The inner cylinder is hollow. Seen from the top view, the lamp is ring-shaped. Equipment such as antennas and another lamp can be stacked on this equipment. The struts and cables and other accessories of the equipment stacked on the top can pass through the hollow part in the middle of the marine navigation light. See Figure 5 , in the figure:

[0038] 1 is a cylindrical body part, which is an octahedral plastic part with an LED lamp board base. The center of the plastic part is hollow for the cable to pass through. The side towards the lamp shade is the LED lamp board base for fixing the LED lamp board;

[0039] 2 is the LED lamp board. Eight lamp boards are installed in a ring on the base of the cylindrical body part to form a ring-shaped illumination;

[0040] 3 is the cable interface, which is the cable inlet and outlet of the ring-shaped lamp;

[0041] 4 is the lamp shade;

[0042] 5 is the power supply unit of the LED lamp board, which is placed on the lamp base;

[0043] 6 is the lamp base.

[0044] See Figures 5-6 , a hollow marine lamp, including a cylindrical body part 1 that is hollow and has lamp boards around it. Inside the cylindrical body part 1, from bottom to top, there pass through: a support device for supporting the anemometer and the cable of the anemometer; the lower part of the support device is fixed on the ship's mast.

[0045] As Figure 6 shown, a marine anemometer is stacked above this hollow marine lamp. The pillar and cable of the anemometer both pass through the hollow part of this hollow marine lamp, without creating a blind area.

[0046] In this embodiment, see Figure 5 , the lamp board is the LED lamp board 2.

[0047] In this embodiment, see Figure 5 , the cylindrical body part 1 is in the structure of an octagonal prism.

[0048] In this embodiment, see Figure 5 , the bottom of the cylindrical body part 1 is provided with a lamp base 6, and the lamp base 6 is provided with the cable interface 3 of the lamp.

[0049] Preferably, the hollow marine lamp is a ring-shaped lamp.

[0050] In this embodiment, see Figure 5 , the ring-shaped lamp is a navigation lamp or a signal lamp.

[0051] In this embodiment, continue to see Figure 5 , there is a lamp shade 4 outside the cylindrical body part 1. Inside the annular space between the lamp shade 4 and the cylindrical body part 1, there is a power supply unit 5 of the LED lamp board, and the lower part of the power supply unit 5 is fixed on the lamp base 6.

[0052] In this embodiment, the cylindrical body part 1 is fixed on the ship's mast. The ship's mast is not shown in the drawings.

[0053] In this embodiment, the cylindrical member 1 is a plastic part. The lamp shade 4 is a plastic part.

[0054] It can be seen that the present utility model provides an interior that is hollow and allows antennas to be stacked above navigation lights and signal lights. When the antenna is placed on the lamp, the antenna base is fixed to the top of the lamp, and the cable of the antenna passes through the hollow part of the lamp, solving the problem of blind area interference between devices, making the layout of electrical equipment on the ship's mast more convenient, reducing the layout difficulty and the cost of the main mast, and improving the design efficiency.

[0055] The above Embodiment 2 is a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. Those of ordinary skill in the art can also make various transformations or improvements on this basis. Without departing from the overall concept of the present utility model, these transformations or improvements should fall within the scope of protection required by the present utility model.
