Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of water depth measurement or underwater topography measurement, and in particular relates to a fixed depth measuring rod suspended on the side of a ship. Background Art

[0002] Underwater topography surveying is a crucial task in waterway maintenance. Using an ultrasonic depth sounder on a buoy vessel requires installing a sounding rod on the side of the vessel. The base of the rod houses the transducer (also known as a sensor), a crucial component of the depth sounder. To function properly, the rod must extend 0.5-0.8 meters below the water surface. Underwater topography surveys must be conducted while the vessel is underway. Securing the rod is crucial for depth measurement. Traditionally, the rod has been secured using a "socket plus fixing clip" system, with additional heirloom or nylon ropes used for diagonal support.

[0003] In practice, users have found that this fixing method has the following problems:

[0004] (1) The side-stayed ropes are easily loosened due to the influence of water resistance during the ship's movement, which makes them completely useless in assisting the ship's fixation.

[0005] (2) The rope fixing ring and the rope will generate a certain amount of resistance and splashes when the ship is sailing.

[0006] (3) Fixed ropes that easily get caught on floating objects (weeds) on the water surface.

[0007] (4) This auxiliary fixing method will cause the sounding rod to vibrate, thus affecting the measurement accuracy. Summary of the Invention

[0008] The technical problem solved by the utility model is to provide a ship side hanging fixed sounding rod which reduces combination and water splash and is not easy to be attached to floating objects such as weeds.

[0009] Technical solution: In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0010] A sounding rod fixedly suspended on the side of a ship comprises a fixing structure, a main rod body of the sounding rod and an outer structure arranged at the lower end of the main rod body and capable of reducing water flow resistance. The fixing structure fixes the sounding rod to the side of the ship.

[0011] Furthermore, the outer packaging structure is a stainless steel plate with a diamond-shaped cross section and arranged on the outer periphery of the main rod.

[0012] Furthermore, the outer structure includes "<"-shaped stainless steel plates symmetrically welded to the outer periphery of the main rod, and two groups of "<"-shaped stainless steel plates constitute a hollow right prism structure.

[0013] Furthermore, the length of the symmetry axis of the rhombus structure parallel to the side of the ship is longer than the length of the symmetry axis perpendicular to the side of the ship.

[0014] Furthermore, the fixing structure includes two groups of symmetrically arranged first fixing structures connecting the outer structure and the ship, and a second fixing structure for fixing the main rod body.

[0015] Furthermore, the first fixing structure includes a connected steel wire rope and a telescopic screw, one end of the steel wire rope is connected to a ring fixed on the outer structure, and the other end is connected to the outer structure through the telescopic screw and the hook.

[0016] Furthermore, the second fixing structure includes an articulated seat fixed on the ship and a fixing plate connected to the articulated seat, and the main rod body is arranged in the articulated seat and the fixing plate.

[0017] Furthermore, the fixing plate is locked with the hinge seat by means of bolts and nuts.

[0018] Furthermore, a hanging plate is provided on the main rod body, and the hanging plate is hung on the hanging ear on the side of the ship.

[0019] Beneficial effects: Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following advantages:

[0020] (1) The utility model uses a stainless steel wire rope as a part of the fixing structure for the sounding rod suspended on the side of the ship. Compared with the existing brown rope or nylon rope, the rope elongation can be reduced, which can effectively assist in fixing the sounding rod and reduce the attachment of floating objects in the water such as water plants.

[0021] (2) The depth sounding rod is fixedly hung on the side of the ship in the utility model. The first fixing structure and the second fixing structure are combined to make the depth sounding rod conveniently and stably fixed on the side of the ship. The installation is convenient, which greatly facilitates the on-site users.

[0022] (3) The utility model provides a fixed sounding rod suspended from the side of a ship. The outer structure is a stainless steel plate with a diamond-shaped cross-section and is arranged on the outer periphery of the main rod. The length of the symmetry axis of the diamond-shaped structure parallel to the side of the ship is longer than the length of the symmetry axis perpendicular to the side of the ship. That is, the angle of the diagonal angle facing the direction of travel of the ship is an acute angle. The smaller angle forms a water-facing surface facing the water flow, which can reduce resistance, avoid the generation of splashes, and prevent the splashes from affecting the measurement results.

[0023] (4) The utility model has a fixed sounding rod suspended on the side of the ship. The steel wire rope, the sounding rod and the outer structure are all made of stainless steel. They are not easy to rust when used in water and have a long service life. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0030] The present invention will be further illustrated below with reference to specific embodiments. The embodiments are implemented based on the technical solutions of the present invention. It should be understood that these embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, the utility model of the sounding rod for fixing the side suspension of a ship comprises a sounding rod 1, a main rod body 2 of the sounding rod 1, an outer structure 3, a ship 4, and a fixing structure (a first fixing structure 5 and a second fixing structure 6); the outer structure 3 for reducing water flow resistance is provided at the lower end of the main rod body 2 of the sounding rod 1, and the entire sounding rod 1 is fixed to the side of the ship 4 by the first fixing structure 5 and the second fixing structure 6.

[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, the outer structure 3 is a stainless steel plate with a diamond-shaped cross-section, arranged on the outer periphery of the main rod body 2. The length of the symmetry axis of the diamond structure parallel to the side of the ship 4 is longer than the length of the symmetry axis perpendicular to the side of the ship 4. In other words, the angle of the diagonal angle facing the direction of travel of the ship is acute. The smaller angle forms the water-facing surface, which can reduce resistance and avoid the generation of splash, which can prevent splash from affecting the measurement results.

[0033] In this embodiment, the outer structure 3 is made of "<" and ">" shaped stainless steel plates symmetrically welded to the outer periphery of the main rod body 2. The openings are welded and fixed to the main rod body 2 with their openings facing each other, forming a straight prism structure. The stainless steel plates are divided into two pieces to facilitate assembly and welding. For precise installation, positioning posts can be provided on the main rod body 2 and positioning grooves can be provided on the stainless steel plates to facilitate positioning during welding.

[0034] Symmetrical arc-shaped notches are provided on both sides of the outer structure 3 , and circular rings 53 are welded in the notches for connection with the first fixing structure 5 .

[0035] Three groups of fixed structures are provided, namely the first fixed structure 5, the second fixed structure 6 and the third fixed structure. The first fixed structure 5 fixes the sounding rod 1 to the side of the ship 4 at the position connected to the outsourcing structure 3, and the first fixed structure 5 fixes the sounding rod 1 to the side of the ship 4 at the upper position of the main rod of the sounding rod 1.

[0036] like Figure 3 As shown, two groups of first fixing structures 5 are provided. The two groups of first fixing structures 5 are arranged on the left and right sides of the sounding rod with the main rod as the axis of symmetry. A semicircular ring 55 is welded to the side of the ship 4 at a distance of about 1.5 meters from the sounding rod 1. The first fixing structure 5 includes a connected wire rope 51 and a telescopic screw 52. One end of the wire rope 51 is connected to the ring 53 fixed to the outer structure 3, and the other end is connected to the semicircular ring 55 on the ship 4 via the telescopic screw 52 and the hook 54. The tightness of the wire rope 51 can be adjusted by the telescopic screw 52. Using stainless steel wire rope as a fixation can reduce the elongation of the rope compared to existing existing coir rope or nylon rope, can effectively assist in fixing the sounding rod, and can reduce the adhesion of floating objects such as water plants in the water.

[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, the first fixing structure 5 can be arranged horizontally, that is, the wire rope 51 is arranged perpendicular to the main rod body 2; during use, it is found that the horizontally arranged wire rope 51 is far away from the upper edge of the ship, which is not conducive to the user's installation or maintenance operations. Therefore, Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the wire rope 51 can also be installed at an angle, and the height of the semicircular ring 55 is higher than the horizontal height of the circular ring 53. The semicircular ring 55 is closer to the upper edge of the ship, which is convenient for installation and maintenance.

[0038] like Figure 4 As shown, in addition to the first fixing structure 5, the present invention further comprises a second fixing structure 6, which comprises an articulated base 61 fixed to the vessel 4 and a fixing plate 62 connected to the articulated base 61. One end of the fixing plate 62 intersects the articulated base 61 via a pin 64, and the other end is secured to the articulated base 61 via a bolt and nut 63. The open end of the fixing plate 62 is provided with a groove 66 for inserting the bolt and nut 63. A support bolt 67 is provided on the articulated base 61, and a rotating body 65 is provided on the outer periphery of the support bolt 67, which is rotatable about the support bolt 67. The bolt of the bolt and nut 63 combination is fixed to the rotating body 65 at one end and is free at the other end.

[0039] The inner wall of the hinge seat 61 and the fixing plate 62 is provided with a groove matching the shape and size of the main rod body 2, so that the main rod body 2 is set in the hinge seat 61 and the fixing plate 62. The grooves in the main rod body 2, the hinge seat 61 and the fixing plate 62 can be an interference fit to improve the fastening effect.

[0040] like Figure 4As shown, the third fixed structure of the present invention is arranged below the second fixed structure 6 and above the outsourcing structure 3, including a hanging plate 7 and a hanging ear 8 on the side of the ship 4. A hanging plate 7 is provided on the main pole body 2, and the hanging plate 7 is hung on the hanging ear 8 on the side of the ship 4.

[0041] like Figure 5 As shown, in order to cooperate with the installation of the sounding rod 1, a corresponding first groove 41 and a second groove 42 are opened on the side of the ship. The depth of the first groove 41 is greater than the depth of the second groove 42. The first groove 41 is used to accommodate the second fixing mechanism, and the second groove 42 is used to accommodate the sounding rod 1.

[0042] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as within the scope of protection of the present invention.
