Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heating devices, specifically a heating device for polar life rafts. Background Technology

[0002] A life raft is a non-self-propelled vessel used for emergency rescue on board. It is typically equipped with a certain amount of food and fresh water for the crew while adrift at sea awaiting rescue. Life rafts are classified into two types based on their structure: rigid life rafts and inflatable life rafts. Rigid life rafts are constructed primarily of rigid materials, while inflatable life rafts are mainly made of rubber and nylon fabric. Life rafts are designed to withstand prolonged exposure and afloat in various sea conditions and to function safely and normally after being deployed from a certain height.

[0003] Polar life rafts are lifesaving devices specifically designed for use in extreme polar environments. Due to the extremely low temperatures in polar regions, ordinary life rafts may not be able to maintain their structural integrity and functionality under these conditions. Therefore, polar life rafts are typically equipped with special insulation and heating systems to ensure normal operation even at temperatures as low as -55°C. The polar life raft heating device is a device specifically designed for operation in extremely low-temperature environments. It ensures that the life raft remains operational in the frigid conditions of polar waters. In low-temperature conditions, it is not only necessary to rely on the cold-resistant properties of the polar life raft itself, but also to ensure that the storage tank and its internal release mechanism are not damaged by the low temperatures. It is also necessary to prevent the equipment from freezing and affecting release. During the heating process, the heating temperature also needs to be controlled to prevent excessively high temperatures from damaging the equipment. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a heating device for polar life rafts. This device features an external environment controller within the electrical control box, a temperature controller inside the lower shell of the life raft storage tank, a heating cable inside the lower shell, and insulation layers inside the upper and lower shells of the life raft storage tank. A hydrostatic pressure release heating box is located in the center of the fixed base. This function monitors the temperature using the external environment temperature controller, controls the heating temperature, and heats the equipment through the heating cable and the hydrostatic pressure release heating box. The insulation layer further protects the life raft storage tank from damage at lower temperatures, ensuring normal operation, and prevents damage from excessively high temperatures.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, a polar life raft heating device is provided, comprising an upper shell for the life raft storage tank, a lower shell for the life raft storage tank located below the upper shell, a heating cable inside the lower shell, a thermostat located on the right side inside the lower shell, the thermostat being fixedly connected to the heating cable, an insulation layer inside both the upper and lower shells, a hydrostatic pressure release heating box located in the center of the front side of the lower shell, and an electrical control box located on the right side of the lower shell, the electrical control box containing an external environment temperature controller.

[0006] According to the polar life raft heating device, the electrical control box is equipped with a junction box, which is linearly connected to an external environmental temperature controller.

[0007] According to the aforementioned polar life raft heating device, the bottom of the electrical control box is provided with several first terminals, which pass through the electrical control box.

[0008] According to the aforementioned polar life raft heating device, the left and right sides of the hydrostatic pressure release heater box are fixedly connected to fixed bases, and the fixed bases are fixedly connected to the lower shell of the life raft storage tank. This arrangement is used to fix the hydrostatic pressure release heater box and the fixed bases.

[0009] According to the polar life raft heating device, the front center of the hydrostatic pressure release heating box is provided with a second terminal, a second cable is fixedly connected to the front end of the second terminal, and the second cable is fixedly connected to the first terminal.

[0010] According to the aforementioned polar life raft heating device, the right side of the temperature controller is provided with a third terminal, which penetrates through the lower shell of the life raft storage tank. The right end of the third terminal is fixedly connected to a first cable, which is fixedly connected to the first terminal. A quick-connect cable plug is provided in the middle of the first cable.

[0011] According to the aforementioned polar life raft heating device, the lower shell of the life raft storage tank is provided with load-bearing reinforcing ribs, which are located inside the insulation layer.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0013] By incorporating an external environment controller, a temperature controller, a heating cable, an insulation layer, and a hydrostatic pressure release heating box, and by placing the external environment controller inside the electrical control box, the temperature controller inside the lower shell of the life raft storage tank, the heating cable inside the lower shell of the life raft storage tank, and the insulation layer inside the upper and lower shells of the life raft storage tank, along with the hydrostatic pressure release heating box located in the center of the fixed base, this system ensures that the life raft storage tank remains undamaged at low temperatures and can be used normally, while also preventing damage from excessively high temperatures.

[0014] By setting up a junction box, a first cable, a second cable, and a cable quick-connect plug, and by setting up a junction box inside the electrical control box, setting up a first cable on the first terminal, setting up a second cable on the second terminal, and setting up a cable quick-connect plug on the first cable, this function can allow multiple independent polar life raft storage tanks to be stored in the electrical control box.
