Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of waterway guidance technology, specifically a waterway guidance device for mooring locks. Background Technology

[0002] A waterway is a body of water that allows ships and rafts to navigate along the coast, rivers, lakes, and canals. To help ships navigate more effectively within the waterway, navigational aids are usually placed along it.

[0003] Existing navigation guidance devices increasingly utilize clean energy sources such as solar power, tidal power, and wind power. However, current solar-powered navigation indicator lights suffer from drawbacks including complex structures, high centers of gravity, and poor stability. Furthermore, they are inconvenient for measuring the distance between vessels and the device, increasing the risk of collisions and potential malfunctions. Additionally, algae and other organisms can easily adhere to the device's surface, causing damage and shortening its lifespan.

[0004] Based on this, the applicant proposes a navigation guidance device for mooring locks. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the problems of existing waterway guidance devices, such as high center of gravity and poor stability, inconvenience in measuring the distance between ships and guidance devices, and easy adhesion of algae and other organisms on the surface, which shortens the service life. The invention provides a berthing lock waterway guidance device with reasonable structural design, low center of gravity and good stability, capable of measuring the distance between ships and guidance devices, not easily covered by algae and other organisms, and with a long service life.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the technical problem is as follows:

[0007] A navigation channel guidance device for a mooring lock includes a float, a support cylinder, and a cover plate. A stabilizing block is located at the bottom of the float, and a connecting ring is located at the bottom of the stabilizing block. An anchor chain is attached to the connecting ring, and an anchor body is attached to the anchor chain. The anchor chain and anchor body improve the stability of the guidance device within the navigation channel. The bottom of the support cylinder is inserted into the stabilizing block. A controller and a battery are located at the bottom of the support cylinder, and a propulsion structure is located inside the support cylinder. The controller is connected to the battery and the propulsion structure via connecting wires. Inserting the bottom of the support cylinder into the stabilizing block lowers the center of gravity of the float and the stabilizing block, preventing them from tipping over and improving the stability of the guidance device during operation. The cover plate and the propulsion... The structure is connected, with an alarm installed on the top of the cover plate and a solar panel and laser rangefinder installed on the side wall of the cover plate. The alarm and laser rangefinder are connected to the controller via connecting cables, and the solar panel is connected to a storage battery. The solar panel can convert light energy into electrical energy, which is stored in the storage battery to provide power for the operation of the guidance device. The alarm can warn passing ships in the channel so that they can know the location of the guidance device. The laser rangefinder can measure the distance between passing ships and the guidance device. When the distance is small, the alarm is activated to provide a strong audible or bright light warning to prevent passing ships from deviating from the channel during navigation and improve the stability of ships in the channel.

[0008] Preferably, the stabilizing block on the floating plate is configured as a conical structure, and an anti-adhesion layer is provided on the outer surface of the stabilizing block. The anti-adhesion layer is made of a material such as thermosetting epoxy resin, silicone resin or nano-hydrophobic material. The anti-adhesion layer can prevent aquatic algae and plankton from adsorbing onto the surface of the stabilizing block, thus extending the service life of the guiding device.

[0009] Preferably, a hydrological sensor is installed at the bottom of the float, and the hydrological sensor is connected to the controller via a connecting line. The hydrological sensor can transmit parameters such as water temperature and water flow rate in the waters near the guiding device to the controller. Passing vessels can obtain this hydrological information wirelessly, providing a basis for the vessel's navigation.

[0010] Preferably, the stabilizing block has 1-4 connecting rings, each with an anchor chain and an anchor body. The anchor chain and anchor body prevent the stabilizing block from moving with the water flow, improving the stability of the guiding device in the waterway and providing a position reference for passing vessels.

[0011] Preferably, the pushing structure includes a drive motor and a push plate, with the drive motor configured as a servo motor. The drive motor is located at the bottom of the support cylinder and connected to a controller via a connecting cable. A drive screw is mounted on the drive motor. A fixed cylinder is located at the top of the push plate, and a connecting screw is located at the bottom of the push plate, with the connecting screw fitted onto the drive screw. A speaker is mounted on the outer wall of the top of the fixed cylinder, and the top of the fixed cylinder is connected to a cover plate. The speaker is also connected to the controller via a connecting cable. A laser rangefinder can monitor the distance between passing vessels and the guiding device in the waterway. Distance is measured. When the distance is less than the preset value of the controller, the controller can start the drive motor. The drive motor drives the drive screw shaft to rotate. The drive screw shaft pushes the connecting screw cylinder and the push plate upward. The push plate pushes the fixed cylinder upward, causing the speaker on the fixed cylinder to move out of the carrier cylinder. The speaker emits a loud alarm to remind passing ships to pay attention to the safe distance. Conversely, when the distance is greater than the preset value of the controller, the drive motor drives the drive screw shaft to rotate in the opposite direction, pulling the push plate downward, causing the fixed cylinder and the speaker on the fixed cylinder to enter the carrier cylinder, avoiding water damage to the speaker and improving the integrity of the speaker.

[0012] Preferably, a limiting post is provided on the inner wall of the bearing cylinder, and a limiting groove is provided on the side wall of the push plate. The limiting post is inserted into the limiting groove, and the push plate moves vertically in the bearing cylinder under the action of the drive motor. The limiting groove on the push plate moves along the limiting post on the inner wall of the bearing cylinder, so that the limiting groove and the limiting plate can limit the push plate during the vertical movement, thereby improving the stability of the push plate during the vertical movement.

[0013] Preferably, a wireless signal transmitter is provided at the bottom of the cover plate, and the wireless signal transmitter is connected to the controller via a connecting cable. The hydrological sensor can transmit parameters such as water temperature and water flow rate in the waters near the guiding device to the controller. Passing ships can obtain this hydrological information by wireless transmission, providing a basis for ship navigation.

[0014] Beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. The laser rangefinder can measure the distance between passing vessels and the guidance device. When the distance is less than the preset value of the controller, the controller can start the drive motor. The drive motor drives the drive screw shaft to rotate. The drive screw shaft pushes the connecting screw cylinder and the push plate upward. The push plate pushes the fixed cylinder upward, causing the speaker on the fixed cylinder to move out of the carrier cylinder. The speaker emits a loud alarm to remind passing vessels to pay attention to the safe distance. Conversely, when the distance is greater than the preset value of the controller, the drive motor drives the drive screw shaft to rotate in the opposite direction and pulls the push plate downward, causing the fixed cylinder and the speaker on the fixed cylinder to enter the carrier cylinder, avoiding water damage to the speaker and improving the integrity of the speaker.

[0016] 2. An anti-adhesion layer is provided on the outer surface of the stabilizing block. The anti-adhesion layer is made of a thermosetting epoxy resin, silicone resin or nano-hydrophobic material. The anti-adhesion layer can prevent aquatic algae and plankton from adsorbing onto the surface of the stabilizing block, thus extending the service life of the guiding device.

[0017] 3. Solar panels can convert light energy into electrical energy, which is stored in batteries to power the guidance device. The alarm can warn passing ships in the channel, enabling them to locate the guidance device. A laser rangefinder can measure the distance between passing ships and the guidance device. When the distance is small, the alarm will be activated to provide a loud sound or bright light warning, preventing passing ships from deviating from the channel and improving the stability of ships while navigating in the channel.

[0028] Among them, the stabilizing block 4 on the float 1 is set as a conical structure, and an anti-adhesion layer 7 is set on the outer surface of the stabilizing block 4. The anti-adhesion layer 7 is made of thermosetting epoxy resin material. A hydrological sensor 5 is set at the bottom of the float 1, and the hydrological sensor 5 is connected to the controller 10 through a connecting line. One connecting ring 6 is set on the stabilizing block 4.

[0029] The pushing structure includes a drive motor 12 and a push plate 13. The drive motor 12 is configured as a servo motor and is located at the bottom of the bearing cylinder 2. The drive motor 12 is connected to the controller 10 via a connecting line, and a drive screw 15 is provided on the drive motor 12. A fixed cylinder 14 is provided on the top of the push plate 13, and a connecting screw 17 is provided on the bottom of the push plate 13. The connecting screw 17 is sleeved on the drive screw 15. A speaker 19 is provided on the top outer wall of the fixed cylinder 14. The top of the fixed cylinder 14 is connected to the cover plate 3, and the speaker 19 is connected to the controller 10 via a connecting line. A limit post 16 is provided on the inner wall of the bearing cylinder 2, and a limit groove 18 is provided on the side wall of the push plate 13. The limit post 16 is inserted into the limit groove 18.

[0030] The bottom of the cover plate 3 is equipped with a wireless signal transmitter 21, which is connected to the controller 10 via a connecting cable.

[0031] Example 2:

[0032] Further explanation is provided based on Example 1, as shown in the appendix. Figure 6 As shown, a waterproof layer 24 is provided between the float 1 and the support cylinder 2. The top surface of the waterproof layer 24 is set as an inclined structure. On rainy days, the waterproof layer 24 can prevent rainwater from entering between the float 1 and the support cylinder 2, thereby slowing down the rate at which rainwater damages the guiding device and extending the service life of the guiding device.

[0033] Working principle: The bottom of the support cylinder 2 is inserted into the stabilizing block 4. A controller 10, a battery 11, and a drive motor 12 are installed inside the support cylinder 2. The controller 10 is connected to the battery 11 and the drive motor 12 via connecting cables. A hydrological sensor 5 is installed on the back of the float 1 and connected to the controller 10 via connecting cables.

After the guidance device is assembled, the length of the anchor chain 8 is adjusted according to the depth of the channel where the guidance device is placed, so that the float 1 floats on the water surface. The solar panel 22 can convert light energy into electrical energy, which is stored in the battery 11 to power the guidance device. Powered by the alarm 20, the device can alert passing vessels in the waterway, enabling them to locate the guidance device. The laser rangefinder 23 measures the distance between passing vessels and the guidance device. When the distance is less than a preset value by the controller 10, the controller 10 activates the drive motor 12. The drive motor 12 rotates the drive screw 15, pushing the connecting cylinder 17 and the push plate 13 upwards. The push plate 13 then pushes the fixed cylinder 14 upwards, causing the speaker 19 on the fixed cylinder 14 to move out of the carrier cylinder 2. The speaker 19 emits a loud alarm, reminding passing vessels to maintain a safe distance. Conversely, when the distance is greater than the preset value by the controller 10, the drive motor 12 rotates the drive screw 15 in the opposite direction, pulling the push plate 13 downwards, causing the fixed cylinder 14 and the speaker 19 on the fixed cylinder 14 to enter the carrier cylinder 2, preventing water damage to the speaker 19.
