Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of navigation mark technology, specifically relating to a navigation mark that can resist multiple waves. Background Technology

[0002] A navigational aid is a man-made marker primarily used to indicate the direction, boundaries, and obstructions of a waterway. Based on the area of ​​installation, they are divided into maritime navigational aids and inland waterway navigational aids. The base of the navigational aid is an important component, used to support the aid itself.

[0003] Chinese patent CN221698942U (publication date: September 13, 2024) discloses a stable maritime buoy. The buoy's base is bowl-shaped, with buoyancy provided by a buoy and a counterweight ring and the buoy's own weight providing balance with the buoyancy. Cables at the bottom fix the buoy. However, the technology used in this utility model is relatively traditional, and the anti-capsulation capability provided by the buoy's base is generally limited when encountering multiple waves.

[0004] Chinese patent CN221541884U (publication date: August 6, 2024) discloses an adaptive navigation beacon load-bearing device. This patent sets up a tilt sensor in the navigation beacon equipment box. When the sensor detects that the navigation beacon is frequently tilted at a large angle, it will open the solenoid valve in the air pump box connected to the connecting pipe to inflate or deflate the airbag to stabilize the navigation beacon. However, the technology used in this application is relatively complex. Under the condition of multiple wave impacts, the airbag needs to be frequently inflated and deflated, making the maintenance of the navigation beacon complicated.

[0005] Although there are some technical solutions that can improve the stability of navigation marks, these solutions have limited applicability and are generally not very effective at preventing capsizing in severe weather. Therefore, designing a navigation mark that can withstand multiple waves is an unsolved technical problem in this field. Utility Model Content

[0006] To solve the above technical problems, this utility model provides a navigation beacon that can resist multiple waves, achieving the goal of preventing capsizing and effectively improving its service life. The technical solution is as follows:

[0007] A navigation beacon capable of withstanding multiple waves, the beacon comprising an upper fixed plate, a wave-impact resistant structure, a damping system, a connecting shaft, a buoy, a lower fixed plate, and an adjustable anchoring cable;

[0008] The upper part of the upper fixing plate is the buoy body; the upper fixing plate and the lower fixing plate are X-shaped; the two ends of the wave-resistant structure are respectively connected to the upper fixing plate and the lower fixing plate; the damping system is located inside the wave-resistant structure; the connecting shaft passes through the buoy, and the two ends of the connecting shaft are connected to the ends of the X-shaped structure of the upper fixing plate and the lower fixing plate; the adjustable anchoring cable is connected to the lower fixing plate.

[0009] Furthermore, the damping system includes a fixed shaft, a damper, a support, and a support chassis; one end of the fixed shaft is connected to an upper fixed plate, and the other end is connected to the damper; the damper is connected to the support chassis via the support.

[0010] Furthermore, the wave-resistant structure is a hollow cylinder.

[0011] Furthermore, the inner diameter of the wave-resistant structure is adapted to the outer diameter of the supporting chassis.

[0012] Furthermore, the lower part of the adjustable anchoring cable is connected to a fixing device.

[0013] Furthermore, the supporting chassis is a ring.

[0014] Furthermore, the support is welded to the damper and the support chassis.

[0015] Furthermore, the adjustable anchoring cable is a steel cable.

[0016] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages and effects of this application are as follows:

[0017] 1. This utility model provides a navigation beacon capable of withstanding multiple waves. The core of this capability lies in the integration of an anti-wave impact structure and a damping system into the beacon's design.

This design effectively absorbs and dissipates the energy generated by multiple waves, reducing the beacon's swaying caused by wave action and preventing vibrations from being directly transmitted to the beacon itself. The adjustable anchoring cable allows the beacon to be stably fixed in a preset position under the weight of the anchor.

[0018] 2. The present invention provides a navigation beacon that can resist multiple waves. It applies a damper to the navigation beacon, which solves the technical problem of how the navigation beacon device can resist multiple waves and realizes the anti-overturning of the navigation beacon.
