Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to marine engineering, specifically to a sealing release device for the active self-destruction of marine engineering surface communication equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Marine engineering surface communication equipment is a type of equipment that floats in the marine environment. Because its working environment is in the open ocean, the cost of recycling the equipment after it has completed its communication work is high. However, if the equipment is not recycled, it will continue to float on the sea surface, forming marine debris. At the same time, continuing to float on the sea surface also poses a risk of physical damage to ships. Utility Model Content

[0003] This utility model proposes a sealing release device for marine engineering surface communication equipment. After the equipment completes its communication operation, the device cylinder can be submerged in water to achieve active self-destruction. Simultaneously, the equipment will sink to the seabed after water ingress, preventing it from becoming surface debris. To achieve this objective, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0004] A sealing release device for active self-destruction of marine engineering surface communication equipment is disclosed. The marine engineering surface communication equipment includes a cylindrical body, a control module is installed inside the cylindrical body, and the top cover of the cylindrical body has a water inlet for communicating with the external sealed cavity of the cylindrical body. The water inlet is sealed with a plug, and the outer diameter of the plug is provided with multiple sealing rings.

[0005] The plug is closed at the top and open at the bottom. Inside the plug, there is an internal threaded hole connected to the opening. A horizontally protruding stop bar that is higher than the top cover is fixed on the outer diameter of the plug.

[0006] A stop rod is vertically fixed on the top cover near the water inlet. The height of the stop rod intersects the rotation path of the stop rod to block the stop rod and stop the plug from rotating.

[0007] The cylinder contains a screw that is threaded into the internal threaded hole. The bottom of the screw is connected to the drive device, which is connected to the control module.

[0008] Furthermore, the drive unit includes a motor mounting base and a drive motor. The motor mounting base is hollow and fixed to the lower surface of the top cover. The drive motor is mounted on the motor mounting base, and the drive shaft of the drive motor is fixedly connected to the screw.

[0009] Furthermore, stop bars located on the same straight line are fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the plug.

[0010] Furthermore, a worm is provided at the bottom of the screw, and the drive device includes a drive motor and a worm wheel fixed on the drive motor, with the worm wheel threadedly connected to the worm.

[0011] The advantages of this utility model are:

[0012] This seal release device is activated by a control module that drives a screw to rotate. Because the screw engages with the internal threaded hole of the plug, its rotation pushes the plug upwards. When the plug reaches a certain position, the stop rod disengages from the blocking rod, allowing the plug to continue moving upwards under the screw's push until the seal at the inlet is released, allowing water to enter the cylinder and achieving self-destruction. Simultaneously, after water enters the equipment, gravity will cause it to sink to the seabed, avoiding the risk of becoming surface debris and preventing physical damage to vessels. Furthermore, this seal release device has a simple structure, is easy to operate, and readily automates control, significantly improving the reliability and safety of marine engineering surface communication equipment.

[0020] In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a more thorough understanding of the present invention. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention can be practiced without one or more of these details. In other instances, certain technical features well-known in the art have not been described in order to avoid confusion with the present invention.

[0021] To fully understand this utility model, detailed steps and structures will be presented in the following description to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model. Preferred embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below; however, in addition to these detailed descriptions, this utility model may have other embodiments.

[0022] Example 1

[0023] Reference Figure 1-6 As shown, this utility model provides a sealing release device for the active self-destruction of marine engineering surface communication equipment. The marine engineering surface communication equipment includes a cylindrical body 1, within which are a data acquisition module, a communication module, and a control module. The data acquisition module is used to collect data and transmit it wirelessly through the communication module. The control module is used to control and monitor the system status of the marine engineering surface communication equipment. The marine engineering surface communication equipment and its internal data acquisition module, communication module, and control module are existing technologies and will not be described in detail here.

[0024] The top cover 2 of the cylinder 1 is provided with a water inlet 3 for connecting the internal sealed cavity of the cylinder 1 with the outside. The water inlet 3 is sealed with a plug 4. The outer diameter of the plug 4 is provided with two sealing rings 5 ​​to ensure the sealing performance between the plug 4 and the water inlet 3.

[0025] The plug 4 of this utility model is a plug with a closed top and an open bottom. An internally threaded hole 8 connected to the bottom opening is provided inside the plug 4. A horizontally protruding stop bar 6, higher than the top cover 2, is fixed to the outer diameter of the plug 4. A stop bar 7, near the water inlet 3, is vertically fixed on the top cover 2. The height of the stop bar 7 intersects the rotation path of the stop bar 6 to block the stop bar 6 and stop the plug 4 from rotating. A screw 9, threaded into the internally threaded hole 8, is provided inside the cylinder 1. The bottom of the screw 9 is connected to a drive device 10, which is connected to a control module.

[0026] In an optional embodiment, the drive device 10 includes a motor mounting base 11 and a drive motor 12. The motor mounting base 11 is hollow and fixed to the lower surface of the top cover 2. The drive motor 12 is mounted on the motor mounting base 11, and the drive shaft of the drive motor 12 is fixedly connected to the screw 9.

[0027] like Figure 2-3As shown in Figures 4-5, after the device completes data acquisition and communication, the control module sends a signal to the drive motor 12. The drive motor 12 drives the screw 9 and the plug 4 at the top of the screw 9 to rotate. When the plug 4 rotates to the point where the stop rod 6 engages with the blocking rod 7, preventing the plug 4 from rotating further, the screw 9 continues to rotate under the action of the drive motor 12. Because the screw 9 and the plug 4 are threaded together, the plug 4 will rise along the axial direction of the screw 9 until the sealing of the cylinder 1 is released, allowing seawater to flow into the cylinder 1 from the inlet 3, causing the surface communication device to sink to the seabed and avoid becoming surface debris. In addition, after the seawater enters the cylinder, it comes into contact with the electronic components inside the cylinder 1. Due to the corrosiveness of the seawater, the electronic components and structural parts inside the device slowly corrode, thus realizing the self-destruct function of the surface communication device. All components of this utility model are made of biodegradable materials. After the device sinks into seawater, it will slowly degrade, avoiding becoming permanent waste and achieving a marine ecologically friendly symbiosis.

[0028] In an optional embodiment, baffles 6 are fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the plug 4, aligned in a straight line. This passively reduces the rotation angle of the plug 4, allowing it to rise more quickly and release the cylinder seal more rapidly. Simultaneously, the baffles 6 on both sides also function as handles, facilitating installation at the inlet 3.

[0029] Example 2

[0030] In this embodiment, an alternative approach is used to actively release the seal of the cylinder. In this embodiment, the bottom of the screw 9 is designed as a worm gear, and the drive device 10 includes a drive motor and a worm wheel fixed to the drive motor. The worm wheel is threadedly connected to the worm gear. The drive motor drives the worm wheel to rotate, which in turn drives the screw 9 to rotate, thereby releasing the seal of the cylinder.

Devices and structures not described in detail herein should be understood as being implemented in a conventional manner within the art.

This does not affect the essential content of this utility model. Therefore, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of this utility model, without departing from the content of the technical solution of this utility model, still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of this utility model.
