[0033] In the following description, many specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present application, but the present application can also be practiced in other ways different from those described herein, therefore, the scope of protection of the present application is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0034] The up-down direction mentioned in the embodiment refers to the up-down direction of the height of the float itself; the inner-outer direction refers to the direction close to and away from the axis of the float.
[0035] The specific embodiments of the present application are as follows:
[0036] For example, Figures 1 to 5The utility model provides a kind of floating mechanism, including shell 2 and air extraction structure, shell 2 has accommodating cavity 3, accommodating cavity 3 is equipped with sealing bulkhead 4, sealing bulkhead 4 is horizontally arranged, sealing bulkhead 4 divides accommodating cavity 3 into first cavity 5 and second cavity 6 along vertical direction arrangement, air extraction passage 7 is equipped on shell 2, first cavity 5 is connected with external environment by air extraction passage 7, the side wall of shell 2 is equipped with the liquid discharge structure for discharging the liquid in first cavity 5;Air extraction structure includes air extraction fan 8 and the motor structure for driving air extraction fan 8 rotation, air extraction fan 8 is located in first cavity 5, air extraction fan 8 is used to suck the air of external environment into first cavity 5, motor structure is located in second cavity 6, motor structure includes motor 9, power supply 10 for the operation of motor 9 and circuit board 11 for controlling the operation of motor 9, motor structure is arranged below sealing bulkhead 4, power supply 10 is button cell.The button cell has the advantages of voltage stability, small volume and weight, is suitable for the power source of the floating mechanism 1 mentioned in the application, in addition, button cell is more environmentally friendly and reliable compared with battery, suitable for use in water body.In the additional embodiment of the embodiment, small lithium battery is used as power source, lithium battery has the advantages of high energy density and strong environmental adaptability, also suitable for the power source of the fish float mentioned in the application.
[0037] In the present scheme, the sealing partition plate 4 divides the containing cavity 3 into a first cavity 5 and a second cavity 6, wherein the first cavity 5 and the second cavity 6 are not in communication with each other. When the floating mechanism 1 is in the water, water enters the first cavity 5 from the liquid discharge channel 15, at this time the floating mechanism 1 has a sinking tendency, when the air extraction structure operates, the water in the first cavity 5 is first discharged from the first cavity 5 through the liquid discharge structure, and then external air is sucked into the first cavity 5 through the air extraction channel. When the water in the first cavity 5 is discharged, the reaction force of the water flow generates an upward thrust on the floating mechanism 1, and under the action of the thrust, the floating mechanism 1 moves towards the water surface; when the water in the first cavity 5 is discharged, external air is sucked into the first cavity 5, at this time the overall buoyancy of the floating mechanism 1 increases dramatically, and the floating mechanism 1 continues to move towards the water surface; that is, when the air extraction structure operates, the floating mechanism 1 will move rapidly towards the water surface; when the air extraction structure stops operating, external water flows into the first cavity 5 through the liquid discharge structure, at this time the overall buoyancy of the floating mechanism 1 decreases, and the floating mechanism 1 sinks into the water. By setting the air extraction structure to operate intermittently, the floating mechanism 1 can be made to jump up and down in the water. The single operation of the air extraction structure can complete two actions, first, the water in the first cavity is discharged, and then the external air is extracted into the first cavity 5. In the second step, the air extraction structure does not need to be in contact with the water, compared with the propeller which always stirs the water to make the fish float move, the floating mechanism mentioned in the present application has lower requirements for the power and endurance of the power source, and can use a small battery, while saving the installation space of the battery (reducing the volume and weight of the floating mechanism). In addition, the setting of the liquid discharge structure makes the air extraction structure not in direct contact with the water, which ensures that the fish float 19 provided with the floating mechanism 1 mentioned in the present application does not rotate around its own axis when moving up and down in the water. It can be understood that the up and down movement of the floating mechanism 1 is realized by changing the buoyancy of the first cavity 5, compared with the propeller which always stirs the water to make the floating mechanism 1 move, the power and endurance requirements of the power source are lower, and a small battery can be used as the power source. Since the small battery has a small installation space, the shell of the floating mechanism 1 can also be reduced in size, and the weight of the floating mechanism 1 with a small size is also relatively light, which further increases the endurance of the small battery. In addition, the setting of the liquid discharge structure makes the air extraction structure not in direct contact with the water, which ensures that the floating mechanism 1 does not rotate around its own axis when moving up and down in the water.

The air suction fan 8 is separately arranged in the first cavity 5. The space of the first cavity 5 is avoided from being occupied by other components, so that the first cavity 5 can provide sufficient buoyancy for the floating mechanism 1. In the embodiment, the sealing partition plate 4, the mounting sleeve 12 and the sleeve are integrally formed.

The hollow tube is a hollow optical fiber tube or a hollow plastic tube. The hollow tube 14 made of plastic or optical fiber can ensure that the hollow tube has the characteristics of high structural strength and light weight, and reduce the power consumption of the motor structure. By arranging the hollow tube 14, the inlet of the air suction channel 7 is away from the water surface, so that the water is not sucked into the first cavity 18 to affect the buoyancy of the floating mechanism 1 when the air suction structure works. In addition, the hollow tube 14 also plays a role of a float tail, and the angler can judge whether the fish bites the hook by observing the hollow tube 14, that is, the hollow tube 14 also plays a role of a float tail.

Meanwhile, the smooth connection helps to reduce the resistance caused by water and reduce the power consumption of the floating mechanism 1. The plurality of liquid discharge channels are distributed in a circumferential array on the side wall of the shell 2 with the axis of the shell 2 as the center. The plurality of liquid discharge channels 15 are arranged at equal intervals, so that the shell 2 is uniformly stressed when the first cavity 18 discharges water, thereby increasing the stability of the floating mechanism 1 when discharging water, that is, the floating mechanism 1 will not be skewed in the process of upward movement.
[0041] As shown in Figure 2As shown, the shell 2 is also provided with a cavity 18 to enhance its own buoyancy. By providing the cavity 18, the buoyancy of the shell 2 is enhanced, further reducing the power consumption of the air extraction structure. It should be noted that the internal structure of the shell 2 with the cavity 18 is complex and not suitable for mold production; in this embodiment, the shell 2 is produced by 3D printing using low-density photocurable resin; the low-density photocurable resin ensures that the weight of the shell 2 is relatively small.
