Detailed implementation manners

[0022] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model.

[0023] A 360 - degree movable sonar detector bracket, referring to Figure 1-6 , includes a base 4, a cross arm 3, a movable column 2, a limit pipe clamp 5, a rotating seat 6 and a handle 7; wherein the cross arm 3 runs through the base 4 horizontally, and a locking mechanism for locking the horizontal position of the cross arm 3 is provided on the base 4. The locking mechanism includes a threaded knob 43 and a ferrule 44 integrally provided on the base 4. The ferrule 44 has a slot adapted for the cross arm 3 to pass through. Through - holes and threaded holes are respectively provided at the upper and lower ends of the ferrule 44. The threaded knob 43 passes through the through - hole and is threadedly installed in the threaded hole, and is used to adjust the compression degree of the ferrule 44. The protruding position of the sonar can be adjusted according to the user's needs. During adjustment, screw out the threaded knob 43 upwards until the cross arm 3 can move under force in the ferrule 44, then push the cross arm 3 to the corresponding position according to the desired length, and then screw in the threaded knob 43 until it is locked.

[0024] Furthermore, the movable column 2 runs through the rotating seat 6 vertically and can rotate horizontally relative to the rotating seat 6 under force. A second locking mechanism for locking the movable column 2 is provided on the rotating seat 6. The second locking mechanism includes a second threaded knob and a second ferrule integrally provided on the rotating seat 6. The second ferrule has a slot adapted for the movable column 2 to pass through. The second threaded knob is detachably installed at the opening of the second ferrule and is used to adjust the compression degree of the second ferrule. A probe mounting plate 1 is provided on one side of the tail end of the movable column 2, and the handle 7 is installed at the top of the movable column 2. When adjusting the horizontal rotation angle of the movable column 2, the second threaded knob can be correspondingly loosened until the movable column 2 can rotate under force in the second ferrule. According to the actual needs of the user, use the handle 7 to drive the movable column 2 to rotate correspondingly, so as to realize the adjustment of the horizontal angle of the sonar. When it is necessary to fix it in a certain direction, lock the second threaded knob.

[0025] Among them, there are two second threaded knobs, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the second ferrule.

[0026] Furthermore, a pitching mechanism is also provided between the tail end of the cross arm 3 and the rotating seat 6, so that the movable column 2 can pitch relative to the cross arm 3. The pitching mechanism includes a connecting joint 9 installed at the tail end of the cross arm 3 and a cantilever 61 integrally provided on the back of the rotating seat 6. The connecting joint 9 is placed in the cantilever 61 and is rotatably connected to the cantilever 61 through a damping rotating shaft. When the sonar is not in use, the movable column 2 can be rotated upward by the handle 7 until the movable column 2 is horizontally placed transversely, so as to prevent the sonar from being stranded and damaged in shallow water areas. This is more convenient than the traditional disassembly and storage. Moreover, when using it later, it can be rotated and extended into the water again.

[0027] Among them, the damping rotating shaft is a technology that is already well-known and will not be specifically described here.

[0028] Furthermore, through holes 42 are vertically provided through the four corners of the base 4, and a ball head seat 41 is also provided on the top of the base 4. The base 4 can be fixed on the ship surface by screws corresponding to be installed in the through holes 42, or a gripper 10 (refer to Figure 6 as shown) can be correspondingly installed at the bottom of the base 4 and installed at the desired position by using the gripper 10.

[0029] Among them, the designed ball head seat 41 can install a detection and display device (not shown in the figure) adapted to it.

[0030] Furthermore, the limit pipe clamp 5 is detachably installed on the outside of the movable column 2, and the limit pipe clamp 5 is located above the movable column 2. The limit pipe clamp 5 is a limit clamp that can adjust the wading depth of the sonar. When the wading depth is determined, it can be locked. When adjusting the horizontal angle of the movable column 2 subsequently, it can also prevent the sonar from sliding downward due to gravity.

[0031] Furthermore, a rotary joint 8 is also included. The fixed part and the rotating part of the rotary joint 8 are respectively installed on the top of the movable column 2 and the tail of the handle 7. A third threaded knob 81 for locking the position of the rotating part is also provided on the rotary joint 8. By designing the rotary joint 8, the up and down angle of the handle 7 can be correspondingly adjusted, so as to facilitate the user to rotate the movable column 2 by using the handle 7.

[0032] Furthermore, waist-shaped holes are correspondingly opened through both sides of the probe mounting plate 1, and through the waist-shaped holes, it can meet the subsequent combination with a sonar (not shown in the figure) through screws.

[0033] Further, the cross arms 3 and the handle 7 both have a U-shaped cross-section. The advantage of designing them as U-shaped is that, firstly, it can prevent the cross arms 3 and the handle 7 from self-rotating and ensure the strength after fixation. Secondly, it can also achieve an anti-slip effect when holding the handle 7.

[0034] Preferably, the whole bracket is made of aluminum alloy material, and it can also be made of other materials, which is not limited herein.

[0035] In summary, multiple movable joints are designed on the bracket. While realizing the 360° rotation detection of the sonar detector, it can also adjust the depth of the probe wading in water. The direction and depth can be flexibly changed according to the actual needs of users. At the same time, when not in use, the sonar can be conveniently stored horizontally through the handle to prevent the sonar from being stranded and damaged in shallow water areas. Moreover, each part is formed by splicing. When a certain part is damaged, it can be directly disassembled and replaced, and the replacement cost is lower.

[0036] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
