Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of cloud and fog observation, and in particular to a stabilization platform for multi-band cloud and fog observation equipment at sea. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of marine meteorological observation, multi-band cloud and fog observation equipment is a key tool for acquiring meteorological data such as cloud height and cloud cover. These devices are typically mounted on unmanned vessels to collect data in the vast ocean environment. However, the complexity and harsh conditions of the marine environment pose significant challenges to the stability and reliability of these devices.
[0003] First, ocean waves cause the ship to roll and tilt, affecting the stability of the observation equipment. This instability leads to lens shake, preventing the capture of clear cloud images and thus impacting data accuracy. Second, wind in the marine environment also significantly affects the equipment, further exacerbating its shaking.
[0004] Furthermore, salt spray in the marine environment is highly corrosive to metal components, especially critical components such as motors. If the motor's sealing performance is inadequate, salt spray and moisture can penetrate the motor, leading to decreased performance, insulation damage, and even short circuits. This not only increases equipment maintenance costs but may also cause equipment failure, impacting long-term observation missions.
[0005] Therefore, designing a stable cloud and fog observation equipment maintenance platform that can remain stable in harsh marine environments and has good sealing performance has become an urgent problem to be solved in the current technological field. Utility Model Content
[0006] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to propose a stabilization platform for marine multi-band cloud and fog observation equipment, so as to solve the technical problems of insufficient stability and poor motor sealing of existing observation equipment, which increases the frequency and cost of maintenance and repair.

A mounting frame is installed at the output end of the P-axis motor module, and an observation camera is installed on the mounting frame.
[0009] The R-axis motor module includes a motor body, a sealing seat fixed on the motor body, a transmission shaft connected to the output shaft of the motor body on the sealing seat, a skeleton oil seal between the transmission shaft and the sealing seat, and a dust cover between the transmission shaft and the sealing seat, with the dust cover located outside the skeleton oil seal.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the R-axis motor module has the same structure as the P-axis motor module.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, there are two observation cameras located on both sides of the mounting frame, and the observation cameras are used to collect visible light and infrared cloud image data.
[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the bottom of the base is also provided with a shock-absorbing seat.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the transmission shaft is connected to the shaft end of the rotating frame via a coupling.
[0014] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the skeleton oil seal is provided in two parts.
[0015] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the outer end of the transmission shaft is provided with a shaft hole that connects to the shaft end of the coupling.
[0016] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the sealing seat includes a positioning block fixed on the motor housing, and the positioning block has an outwardly protruding protrusion in the middle, and the protrusion has a through hole for the transmission shaft to pass through, and the protrusion has mounting cavities for mounting the skeleton oil seal on both sides of the through hole.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, 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 scope of protection of this utility model.
[0027] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0028] Example 1
[0029] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, this utility model discloses a stabilization platform for a multi-band cloud and fog observation device at sea, comprising a base 1, vertically upward support seats 2 on both sides of the base 1, and a horizontally arranged rotating frame 3 on the support seats 2. A P-axis motor module 4 is mounted on the rotating frame 3, and an R-axis motor module 5 for driving the rotating frame 3 to rotate is mounted on the support seats 2. A mounting frame 6 is mounted on the output end of the P-axis motor module 4, and an observation camera 7 is mounted on the mounting frame 6. The camera angle can be adjusted through the P-axis motor module and the R-axis motor module.
[0030] The R-axis motor module 5 includes a motor body 8, on which a sealing seat 9 is fixed. A transmission shaft 10, connected to the output shaft of the motor body 8, is mounted on the sealing seat 9. A skeleton oil seal 11 is provided between the transmission shaft 10 and the sealing seat 9, and a dust cover 12 is also provided between the transmission shaft 10 and the sealing seat 9, with the dust cover 12 located outside the skeleton oil seal 11. The skeleton oil seal, located between the transmission shaft and the sealing seat, effectively prevents the intrusion of liquids and dust; the dust cover, located outside the skeleton oil seal, further enhances the sealing effect.
[0031] This utility model's stabilization platform for a multi-band cloud and fog observation device at sea utilizes the coordinated operation of P-axis and R-axis motor modules to precisely adjust the angle of the observation camera, ensuring clear cloud images are captured even under the influence of ocean waves and wind, thus providing accurate cloud and fog data. Furthermore, the platform employs both a skeleton oil seal and a dust cover seal, effectively preventing seawater from seeping into the motor and protecting its internal components from environmental damage. The motors in this multi-band cloud and fog observation device stabilization platform have excellent sealing properties, effectively preventing external environmental intrusion, thereby reducing the need for motor maintenance and repair, and improving the long-term reliability and stability of the equipment. The sealed motors also prevent short circuits caused by moisture and salt spray, ensuring the electrical safety of the equipment and avoiding potential fire or electric shock risks.
[0032] The R-axis motor module 5 has the same structure as the P-axis motor module 4. The attitude of the fixed platform is changed by adjusting the motor's speed and direction. A gyroscope and accelerometer are used to monitor the hull's tilt angle in real time, and the output of the two motors is adjusted based on the data. The two motors keep the equipment level. Considering the motors' ability to operate reliably for extended periods in seawater, salt spray, high humidity, and highly corrosive environments, and protecting internal components from environmental damage, airtightness is crucial. The motor sealing device in this invention employs a multi-seal design, using both shaft seals and end cap seals. This effectively prevents external environmental intrusion, reduces motor maintenance and repair needs, improves the long-term reliability and stability of the equipment, and prevents short circuits caused by moisture and salt spray, ensuring electrical safety and avoiding potential fire or electric shock risks.
[0033] The observation cameras 7 are two in number and are located on both sides of the mounting frame. The observation cameras are used to collect visible light and infrared cloud image data, and include an infrared camera and a visible light camera.
[0034] The base 1 is also equipped with a shock absorber 13 at its bottom, which provides good shock absorption. Under the influence of ocean waves and wind, the shock absorber can absorb and disperse vibration energy, reduce the impact and vibration on the equipment, and thus improve the stability of the equipment and the accuracy of the observation data.
[0035] The drive shaft 10 is connected to the shaft end of the rotating frame via a coupling. Two skeleton oil seals 11 are provided, which provides a better sealing effect. The outer end of the drive shaft 10 is provided with a shaft hole 14 for connection with the shaft end of the coupling.
[0036] The sealing seat 9 includes a positioning block 15 fixed on the motor housing, and the positioning block 15 has an outwardly protruding protrusion 16 in the middle, and the protrusion 16 has a through hole for the drive shaft to pass through. The protrusion 16 has mounting cavities for installing the skeleton oil seal 11 on both sides of the through hole. This facilitates the installation and replacement of the skeleton oil seal 11, while ensuring the effectiveness of the sealing effect.
[0037] Working principle: The camera angle can be adjusted through the P-axis motor module 4 and the R-axis motor module 5. The R-axis motor module 5 includes a motor body 8, on which a sealing seat 9 is fixed. The sealing seat 9 is provided with a transmission shaft 10 connected to the output shaft of the motor body 8. A skeleton oil seal 11 is provided between the transmission shaft 10 and the sealing seat 9. A dust cover 12 is also provided between the transmission shaft 10 and the sealing seat 9. The dust cover 12 is located outside the skeleton oil seal 11. This utility model adopts a multi-seal design, using two sealing structures, the skeleton oil seal 11 and the dust cover 12, which can effectively prevent the intrusion of the external environment and prevent seawater from seeping into the motor.
[0038] In summary, this utility model, through the adoption of multiple sealing designs, shock-absorbing seat designs, coordinated operation of motor modules, and sealing seat structural designs, effectively improves the stability and reliability of multi-band cloud and fog observation equipment at sea, enhances electrical safety, and provides more accurate and reliable protection for meteorological observation of unmanned vessels at sea.
