DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0032] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a ship-based intelligent electrolysis anti-fouling electrode device, which is used to solve the problem of being unable to monitor the corrosion degree of ship electrode rods, resulting in the ship being contaminated by marine organisms.
[0033] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0034] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 The present invention provides a marine intelligent electrolysis anti-fouling electrode device 100, comprising: an electrode rod 110, a monitoring device 120, a flange 130, a signal cable 140 and a control device 150, wherein a cavity 111 is provided inside the electrode rod 110; the monitoring device 120 is arranged in the cavity 111; the flange 130 is connected to one end of the electrode rod 110, and comprises a through hole 131 and a center hole 132, wherein the through hole 131 is a waist-shaped hole for the signal cable 140 to pass through; the monitoring device 120 is debugged and installed through the center hole 132; one end of the signal cable 140 passes through the flange 130 and is connected to the monitoring device 120; the control device 150 is connected to the other end of the signal cable 140; wherein, the electrode rod 110 is continuously electrolyzed and consumed, so that when the monitoring device 120 contacts seawater, the control device 150 generates an alarm reminder.
[0035] In this embodiment, when the electrode rod 110 is exhausted by electrolysis, the monitoring device 120 can directly contact the seawater to form a circuit, thereby triggering the control device 150 to issue an alarm reminder and replace the electrode rod 110 in time, thereby improving the safety and maintenance efficiency of the ship's metal; the waist-shaped hole better protects the signal cable 140 passing through the flange 130, thereby improving the safety of the signal cable 140.
[0036] Specifically, the ship-borne intelligent electrolysis anti-fouling electrode device is set in seawater, and the electrode rod 110 is continuously electrolyzed and consumed. When the electrode rod 110 is exhausted and the seawater contacts the monitoring device 120, the monitoring device 120 transmits a signal to the control device 150 through the signal cable 140. The control device 150 alarms and reminds that the anti-fouling electrode rod 110 needs to be replaced to prevent the ship body from being polluted by marine organisms.
[0037] Specifically, the marine intelligent electrolysis anti-fouling electrode device 100 may shake at any time during operation, causing the connected signal cable 140 to become disconnected from the flange 130, potentially causing wear or damage to the signal cable 140. The waist-shaped through-hole effectively addresses these issues, providing ample space for the signal cable 140. This prevents the signal cable 140 from excessively contacting the edge of the through-hole 131 during operation, thus preventing excessive damage to the signal cable 140 and shortening its service life.
[0038] See also Figure 3 The monitoring device 120 includes: a protective cover 121 and a monitoring electrode 122 , wherein the protective cover 121 is disposed in the electrode rod 110 ; the monitoring electrode 122 is disposed in the protective cover 121 ; wherein the signal cable 140 is connected to the monitoring electrode 122 .
[0039] In this embodiment, the monitoring electrode 122 is disposed in the protective cover 121, which can ensure that the monitoring electrode 122 does not come into contact with seawater before the electrode rod 110 is completely worn out, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of the alarm.
[0040] Specifically, the monitoring device 120 is composed of a protective cover 121 and a monitoring electrode 122 . The protective cover 121 is disposed outside the monitoring electrode 122 . The signal cable 140 is connected to the monitoring device 120 .
[0041] See also Figure 3 , the protective cover 121 is an insulating material.
[0042] In this embodiment, the protective cover 121 made of insulating material can effectively prevent current leakage, and can also prevent unintended current paths from affecting monitoring accuracy and causing false alarms.
[0043] Specifically, the protective cover 121 disposed outside the monitoring electrode 122 is an insulator to prevent current from passing through it and affecting the monitoring accuracy.
[0044] See also Figure 3 , the protective cover 121 is provided with a vent.
[0045] In this embodiment, the design of the vent can exhaust air in time, balance the internal and external air pressure, and ensure that the monitoring electrode 122 in the protective cover 121 can contact the seawater in time, thereby realizing timely alarm.
[0046] Specifically, a vent is provided on the protective cover 121 outside the monitoring electrode 122, and the internal and external pressures are balanced through the vent. Seawater can also enter the monitoring device 120 through the vent. The monitoring electrode 122 contacts the seawater in time and transmits a signal to the control device 150.
[0047] See also Figure 3 The edge of the protective cover 121 located on the side of the monitoring electrode 122 away from the signal cable 140 is provided with a serrated shape.
[0048] In this embodiment, the serrated edge helps to destroy the surface tension of seawater, preventing the surface tension from hindering the seawater from entering the protective cover, making it easier for the monitoring electrode 122 in the protective cover 121 to contact the seawater, thereby improving the monitoring sensitivity.
[0049] Specifically, the protective cover 121 is provided with a serrated edge on the side away from the signal cable 140. When it comes into contact with seawater, it can destroy the tension of the seawater, making it easier for the seawater to enter the protective cover 121. The monitoring electrode 122 contacts the seawater and transmits signals to the control device 150 in a timely manner.
[0050] See also Figure 3 The protective cover 121 extends beyond the monitoring electrode 122 in a direction away from the flange 130 .
[0051] In this embodiment, this design can ensure that the monitoring electrode 122 in the protective cover 121 will not prematurely contact the seawater or the conductive electrode rod 110 due to external factors before the electrode rod 110 is completely exhausted, thereby reducing the possibility of false alarms.
[0052] Specifically, the side of the protective cover 121 away from the signal cable 140 is a certain distance longer than the monitoring electrode 122, ensuring that seawater enters the protective cover 121 in advance and contacts the monitoring electrode 122 before the external electrode rod 110 is exhausted, or the two monitoring electrodes form a loop through the electrode rod 110, resulting in a false alarm signal misleading.
[0053] See also Figure 3 A sealing mechanism is provided at the intersection of the other end of the protective sleeve 121 and the signal cable 140 to prevent seawater from entering.
[0054] In this embodiment, the sealing mechanism can prevent seawater from penetrating from the access point of the signal cable 140, thereby ensuring the reliability and service life of the entire system.
[0055] Specifically, a sealing mechanism is provided at the end where the protective cover 121 overlaps with the signal cable 140 to prevent seawater from contacting the monitoring electrode 122 in advance, thereby causing a false alarm signal to mislead.
[0056] Preferably, resin potting is used.
[0057] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 The flange 130 is provided with a through hole for the signal cable 140 to pass through.
[0058] In this embodiment, the through-hole design not only facilitates the wiring of the signal cable 140 , but also prevents seawater from intruding through sealing measures.
[0059] Specifically, a through hole is provided on the surface of the flange 130 for the signal cable 140 to pass through, which not only provides signal transmission to the control device 150 but also prevents seawater from entering the monitoring device 120.
[0060] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4 The marine intelligent electrolysis anti-fouling electrode device 100 further includes: a protective device 160, which is arranged on the side of the flange 130 away from the electrode rod 110, and includes an adjustment hole 161, through which the flange 130 and the monitoring device 120 are adjusted; wherein the signal cable 140 is connected to the protective device 160.
[0061] In this embodiment, the protection device 160 can simplify the installation process of the signal cable 140 and provide additional protection including waterproofing.
[0062] Specifically, a protective device 160 is provided on the side of the flange 130 away from the motor rod, the signal cable 140 is connected to the protective device 160 , the connecting device is electrically connected to the junction box, and finally connected to the control device 150 .
[0063] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 The cavity 111 is provided with a sealing gasket 170 , and the sealing gasket 170 is in contact with the flange 130 .
[0064] In this embodiment, the sealing gasket 170 fits tightly against the flange 130 , further enhancing the watertightness of the entire device.
[0065] Specifically, a sealing gasket 170 is provided in the cavity 111 inside the electrode rod 110 . The sealing gasket 170 is tightly fitted to the flange 130 , isolating the cavity 111 from the outside and preventing seawater from entering the cavity 111 .
[0066] The present invention provides a marine intelligent electrolysis anti-fouling electrode device 100 to overcome the problem of marine biofouling caused by the inability to monitor the corrosion of a ship's electrode rods. Specifically, the marine intelligent electrolysis anti-fouling electrode device 100 determines whether the electrode rods 110 are depleted by monitoring the contact between the electrodes 122 and seawater. This information is transmitted to a control device 150 via a signal cable 140, ultimately providing an alarm. This design effectively monitors the status of the electrode rods 110, ensuring timely replacement when necessary, thereby preventing damage to the ship from marine biofouling.
[0067] Although the present invention is disclosed as above, it is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art may make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be subject to the scope defined by the claims.
