[0022] In the related art, there is a problem that the handle easily blocks the scale, making it difficult for the operator to accurately read the current propulsion status and increasing the risk of misoperation.

[0023] In view of the above problems, the present invention provides a ship propulsion control handle 10, a ship propeller and a ship, which can improve the scale obstruction problem and thus improve the operation accuracy.

[0024] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments.

It is only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0028] In addition, the terms "", "", etc. are only used to distinguish the descriptions and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0029] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the features in the embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other.

[0030] The following describes in detail the overall structure, working principle and technical effects of the ship propulsion control handle 10, ship propeller and ship provided by the present invention through embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Figure 1 and Figure 2The present invention provides a ship propulsion control handle 10 , which includes a mounting seat 100 , a rotating shaft 300 and two handle assemblies 500 .

[0031] The rotating shaft 300 is rotatably connected to the mounting base 100. Furthermore, the mounting base 100 is provided with an arcuate groove 110 along the circumference of the rotating shaft 300. The arcuate groove 110 is provided with multiple scales spaced apart along the circumference of the rotating shaft 300. Furthermore, two handle assemblies 500 are positioned at either end of the rotating shaft 300, ensuring a clear distance between them to prevent obstruction of the scale area and ensure that the user can easily observe and read the scale information.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, the two handle assemblies 500 are symmetrically arranged. It is easy to understand that the symmetrical arrangement of the handle assemblies 500 can ensure that the torque on both sides remains balanced during the rotation process, reducing the shaking or deviation caused by uneven force on one side, thereby improving the operator's accuracy and stability during operation.

[0033] In some embodiments, the handle assembly 500 includes a connecting rod 510 and a grip 530. One end of the connecting rod 510 is connected to the rotating shaft 300, and the other end is connected to the grip 530. Based on this arrangement, an operator can tilt or rotate the grip 530 to drive the rotating shaft to move accordingly, which is then transmitted to other components of the ship's propulsion system, thereby controlling the ship's propulsion system and changing the ship's heading.

[0034] Optionally, the connection between the connecting rod 510 and the grip 530 can be a snap-on or threaded connection for quick assembly and disassembly and maintenance. In addition, a shock-absorbing material can be added between the connecting rod 510 and the grip 530 to reduce the impact of vibrations generated during operation on the operator's hands.

[0035] Furthermore, considering the operator's ease of grip, the connecting rod 510 extends radially along the rotation axis 300, and the grip 530 is tilted upward at one end away from the connecting rod 510. It should be noted that the tilted grip 530 design can reduce pressure on the hand and wrist, reducing fatigue during delicate or prolonged operations and reducing operational errors.

[0036] To further enhance grip comfort, grip 530 includes a connecting portion 531 and a gripping portion 533. Gripping portion 533 is ellipsoidal in shape and is connected to connecting rod 510 via connecting portion 531. As will be appreciated, the curved surface of the ellipsoid fits snugly against the operator's palm, enhancing grip comfort and increasing contact area. Optionally, the outer surface of grip 533 may be grooved or fitted with a rubber sleeve to enhance slip resistance.

[0037] To accurately indicate the specific scale to which the handle assembly 500 has been rotated, the handle assembly 500 further includes a pointer 550. The pointer 550 is perpendicularly connected to the connecting rod 510 and extends axially along the rotation axis 300 to the arcuate groove 110. This arrangement allows the operator to intuitively read the current operating status, reducing errors caused by subjective judgment and improving operational accuracy and reliability.

[0038] In addition, in some embodiments, lighting strips are provided on the walls of the arcuate slot 110 on both sides to illuminate the scale within the arcuate slot 110, allowing the operator to clearly see the scale even in low-light environments, thereby improving the accuracy of readings. This improves scale clarity. In other embodiments, an indicator light may be provided on the underside of the pointer 550 to directly illuminate the scale to which the pointer 550 is pointing, making it easier for the operator to identify the current operating position.

[0039] like Figure 2 As shown, the end of the pointer 550 near the arcuate slot 110 is provided with an inclined surface 551, which is inclined upward and toward the connecting rod 510. It is easy to understand that the design of the inclined surface 551 can reduce the overlap area between the pointer 550 and the scale, making it easier for the operator to see the specific scale pointed by the pointer 550, thereby improving the accuracy of the reading.

[0040] In some embodiments, the marine propulsion control handle 10 further includes a connector 700. Connecting to the mounting base 100, the connector 700 is configured to connect to the control console. As will be readily appreciated, the connector 700 provides an additional connection point, ensuring a secure connection between the mounting base 100 and the control console and reducing loosening due to vibration or impact. Optionally, the connector 700 is a rectangular parallelepiped for easier docking with the control console.

[0041] In summary, the present invention provides a ship propulsion control handle 10, comprising a mounting base 100, a rotating shaft 300, and two grip assemblies 500. The rotating shaft 300 is rotatably connected to the mounting base 100. Furthermore, the mounting base 100 is provided with an arcuate groove 110 along the circumference of the rotating shaft 300. The arcuate groove 110 is provided with a plurality of scales spaced apart along the circumference of the rotating shaft 300. Furthermore, the two grip assemblies 500 are disposed at opposite ends of the rotating shaft 300, ensuring a clear spacing between them to prevent obstruction of the scale area and ensure that the user can easily observe and read the scale information.

[0042] The present invention also provides a ship propulsion system, specifically a lateral thruster, to assist in lateral movement of a ship, particularly during low-speed sailing or while berthing. This propulsion system includes a control console and the aforementioned propulsion control handle 10, with the control console connected to the propulsion control handle 10. Therefore, this propulsion system also has the beneficial effect of alleviating scale obstruction and improving operator accuracy, which will not be further elaborated here.

[0043] The present invention also provides a vessel comprising a hull and the propeller of the aforementioned embodiment, wherein the hull is connected to the propeller. Similar to the above, this vessel also has the beneficial effect of improving the scale obstruction problem and improving the operator's operating accuracy, which will not be further described here.

[0044] The above is only a specific implementation method of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Any changes or replacements that can be easily thought of by any technician familiar with this technical field within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
