[0003] A Chinese patent application, CN110344379B, discloses a polar environment oil boom and oil containment method. The application date is July 9, 2019. This patented technology addresses the environmental characteristics of polar ice zones by rapidly containing oil using tugboats, slowing the spread of oil spills and thereby alleviating environmental pollution and reducing economic losses. This patented technology also offers guidance for potential oil spills in ice zones during the cold winter months in my country's northern waters, and has broad application prospects. However, the aforementioned oil boom, due to its fixed skirt length, cannot accommodate oil spills of varying depths. Therefore, the inventors have provided a polar environment oil boom to address the issues raised in the aforementioned background art. Summary of the Invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] like Figure 1 、 2 As shown, an oil boom for polar environments includes a float 10 , a skirt 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the float 10 , a counterweight chain 12 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the skirt 11 , and an adjustment mechanism 20 is provided on the outside of the skirt 11 .
[0022] Preferably, the skirt body of the skirt belt 11 is made of nylon cloth coated with nitrile rubber, which has high wear resistance and anti-aging properties.
[0023] refer to Figure 2 、 3 The adjusting mechanism 20 includes a fixed block 201 fixedly connected to the upper front part of the skirt 11, and a sliding groove 203 is provided at the bottom of the fixed block 201. An extension block 202 that can be moved up and down and positioned is slidably connected inside the sliding groove 203, and a group of evenly arranged through holes 214 are provided on the left side of the extension block 202.
[0024] Preferably, a movable groove 204 is provided inside the fixed block 201, and positioning grooves 205 are respectively provided on the left and right sides of the movable groove 204; the top of the fixed block 201 is slidably connected to a pressing block 210, and the left and right sides of the pressing block 210 are respectively hinged to connecting rods 213 through hinges, and the outer ends of the connecting rods 213 are hinged to guide blocks 208 through hinges, and the bottom of the guide block 208 is fixedly connected to a connecting rod 207, and the inner side of the connecting rod 207 is fixedly connected to an insert block 206, and the insert block 206 is slidably connected to the positioning groove 205.
[0025] Preferably, the top of the movable groove 204 is fixedly connected to a sliding rod 211, and the sliding rod 211 is slidably connected to the pressing block 210; the top of the sliding rod 211 is fixedly connected to a support spring 212, and the top of the support spring 212 is fixedly connected to the pressing block 210.
[0026] Preferably, a pair of guide grooves 209 are respectively opened on the left and right sides of the top of the movable groove 204, and the guide block 208 is slidably connected to the pair of guide grooves 209 on the corresponding sides, thereby achieving the effect of guiding the guide block 208 when moving.
[0027] Furthermore, a support rod 217 is fixedly connected to the bend of the skirt 11. The upper and lower sides of the support rod 217 are respectively hinged to driving rods 216 via hinges. The top of the upper driving rod 216 is hinged to the fixed block 201 via a hinge, while the bottom of the lower driving rod 216 is hinged to the extension block 202 via a hinge. During use, the two driving rods 216 and the support rod 217 form an isosceles trapezoid, which can support the skirt 11. When adjusting the length of the skirt 11, the extension block 202 moves to cause the driving rod 216 to flip, driving the support rod 217 to move forward and backward, and at the same time causing the top driving rod 216 to flip accordingly. This ensures that the bend of the skirt can always maintain the isosceles trapezoid shape after adjustment, facilitating the subsequent connection between oil booms.
[0028] When in use, press the pressing block 210 downward, and the pressing block 210 moves downward and drives the guide blocks 208 on both sides to move away from each other through the connecting rod 213, thereby driving the insert block 206 to sink into the movable groove 204 through the connecting rod 207, and at the same time drives the pressing block 210 to drive the support spring 212 to compress, and then slide the extension block 202 up and down so that the extension block 202 drives the height of the entire device to change. When the height of the entire device is adjusted, release the pressing block 210, so that the support spring 212 rebounds and drives the guide blocks 208 on both sides to move toward each other through the connecting rod 213, thereby driving the insert blocks 206 on both sides to move toward each other and insert into one of the positioning slots 205, thereby achieving the effect of fixing the overall length after the change.
[0029] Furthermore, the extension block 202 is provided with a scale 215, and the scale 215 is convenient for displaying the height of the entire device. The height of the entire device is first measured after the extension block 202 is fully inserted into the sliding groove 203, and the height is recorded as the initial height. Then, the height scale 215 is increased in sequence according to the length on the surface of the extension block 202, so as to facilitate the staff to make fine adjustments to the height of the skirt 11.
[0030] refer to Figure 1 、 4The outer side of the skirt belt 11 is provided with a connecting component 30, and the connecting component 30 includes a left connecting cloth 301 fixedly connected to the left edge of the skirt belt 11, and the connecting component 30 also includes a right connecting cloth 303 fixedly connected to the right edge of the skirt belt 11. The front surface of the left connecting cloth 301 is fixedly connected to a group of hooks 302, and the rear surface of the right connecting cloth 303 is fixedly connected to a group of hanging beads 304. The left connecting cloth 301 and the right connecting cloth 303 are staggered (such as Figure 4 Show).
[0031] When two oil booms are connected, the left connecting cloth 301 of one side skirt 11 is attached to the surface of the right connecting cloth 303 of the other skirt 11 and the hook 302 is fixedly plugged into the hanging bead 304, so as to achieve the effect of mutual connection between the oil booms. At the same time, the left connecting cloth 301 and the right connecting cloth 303 at the connection are attached to the surface, thereby preventing oil from overflowing from the boundary of the skirt 11.
[0032] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: the pressing block 210 is pressed downward, and the pressing block 210 moves downward and drives the guide blocks 208 on both sides to move away from each other through the connecting rod 213, thereby driving the insert block 206 to sink into the movable groove 204 through the connecting rod 207, and at the same time drives the pressing block 210 to drive the support spring 212 to be compressed, and then slide the extension block 202 up and down so that the extension block 202 drives the height of the entire device to change. When the height of the entire device is adjusted, the pressing block 210 is released, so that the support spring 212 rebounds and drives the guide blocks 208 on both sides to move toward each other through the connecting rod 213, thereby driving the insert blocks 206 on both sides to move toward each other and insert into one of the positioning grooves 205, thereby achieving the effect of fixing the entire length after the change.
