[0019] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0020] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 This utility model provides an embodiment of an adjustable protection structure for a submarine cable detector, comprising a support frame 1, a base 2 fixedly connected to the bottom of the support frame 1, a sliding frame 3 slidably connected to the outside of the support frame 1, a support rod 4 fixedly connected to the outside of the sliding frame 3, a groove 5 formed inside the support rod 4, a sliding plate 6 slidably connected inside the groove 5, a fixing buckle 8 installed at the bottom of the sliding plate 6, a second sliding frame 7 slidably connected to the outside of the support frame 1, a second support rod 9 fixedly connected to the outside of the second sliding frame 7, a groove 11 formed inside the support rod 9, and a sliding component 11 slidably connected inside the groove 11. The sliding plate 10 and the sliding frame 3 are equipped with a fixing component inside. The support rod 4 is rotatably connected to a rotating column 14, and the rotating column 14 is fixedly connected to a filter plate 15 outside. The support rod 4 is fixedly connected to a fixing frame 17 outside. The fixing frame 17 is slidably connected to a sliding block 18 inside. The sliding block 18 is fixedly connected to a locking block 19 outside. The upper surface of the sliding block 18 is fixedly connected to a pull rod 20, and the pull rod 20 is fixedly connected to a limiting plate 21 outside. The limiting plate 21 is slidably connected to the inside of the fixing frame 17 outside. The sliding block 18 is equipped with a spring 22 outside, and the spring 22 is located inside the fixing frame 17 outside.

[0021] Specifically, sliding frame 3 and sliding frame 7 can move freely up and down along support frame 1. By adjusting their positions, they can drive support rod 4 and support rod 9 to rise and fall synchronously, thereby adjusting the height of the detection components subsequently installed on the support rods. Slide groove 5 provides a sliding track for sliding plate 6, and slide groove 11 provides a sliding path for sliding plate 10, enabling adjustment of the horizontal position of sliding plate 10. When sliding plate 6 needs to be replaced or maintained, pull the sliding block 18 by the pull rod 20. The locking block 19 moves and disengages from the outside of the filter plate 15, thus releasing the fixation. Then, manually rotate the filter plate 15 and slide plate 6 out to complete the disassembly. The filter plate 15 is located outside the opening of slide groove 5. The side of the filter plate 15 closest to the fixed frame 17 is engaged with the end of the locking block 19. The locking block 19 is engaged or disengaged from the filter plate 15 by the movement of the sliding block 18, thereby controlling whether the filter plate 15 blocks or opens the opening of slide groove 5. The rotation of the filter plate 15 requires a sequential unlocking, rotation, and reset fixing process. In its initial state, it is connected to the support rod 4 via the rotating column 14, which blocks the opening of the slide groove 5. The locking block 19 engages with the outside of the filter plate 15, forming a lock and restricting its rotation.

[0022] To unlock, pull rod 20 is required, which will cause sliding block 18 to compress spring 22, and locking block 19 will disengage from filter plate 15. After unlocking, filter plate 15 can rotate around rotating column 14 in a direction away from slide groove 5.

[0023] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The fixing component includes a mounting post 12, which is externally threaded into the interior of the sliding frame 3. A handle 13 is fixedly connected to the exterior of the mounting post 12. The sliding frame 7 has the same structure as the sliding frame 3, and the fixing buckle 8 has the same structure as the fixing component. Multiple sensors are installed inside the sliding plate 6 and the sliding plate 10.

[0024] Specifically, when it is necessary to fix the sliding frame 3, rotate the mounting column 12 so that its end abuts against the support frame 1, and use friction to limit the sliding of the sliding frame 3. Alternatively, rubber can be provided on the contact surface between the mounting column 12 and the support frame 1 to enhance friction. The handle 13 is convenient for the operator to hold. Multiple sensors installed inside the sliding plate 6 and the sliding plate 10 can simultaneously monitor multiple parameters in the marine environment, such as water temperature, salinity, pressure, and water quality, improving detection efficiency and data comprehensiveness. The multiple sensors include displacement sensors, etc. The displacement sensors determine the accurate position of the sliding plate 6 and the sliding plate 10 in the software.

[0025] Working principle: When the device is needed, first move the sliding frame 3 and sliding frame 7 on the support frame 1. Pushing the sliding frame 3 and sliding frame 7 will drive the support rod 9 and support rod 4 to move respectively. After adjusting to a suitable height, rotate the handle 13 to drive the mounting column 12 to rotate, so that the mounting column 12 is in close contact with the support frame 1. Fix the sliding frame 3 and sliding frame 7 with the fixing component. Next, adjust the position of the sliding plate 6 and sliding plate 10. The sliding plate 6 will slide in the sliding groove 5, and the sliding plate 10 will slide in the sliding groove 11. After adjusting to a suitable position, fix it with the fixing buckle 8 so that the sensors in the sliding plate 6 and sliding plate 10 can detect better.

[0026] When the sliding plate 6 needs to be replaced, pull the lever 20 to move the sliding block 18 and the locking block 19 and compress the spring 22, releasing the locking of the filter plate 15. Then rotate the filter plate 15 and slide the sliding plate 6 out. The sliding plate 6 also cleans the impurities in the groove 5 as it slides.

[0027] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
