Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of ecological and environmental protection technology, specifically to mobile water surface platforms and ecological intelligent equipment. Background Technology
[0002] With continuous economic development, people are paying increasing attention to the protection of water bodies such as rivers and lakes. In the context of water body protection, it is usually necessary to provide corresponding mobile water platforms to facilitate the deployment of various devices for water body monitoring and maintenance, or to carry out material delivery in specific water areas.
[0003] Currently, boats are commonly used as mobile platforms on water, such as by rowing the boat on a lake, making it easier for onboard equipment to collect water data. However, boats are usually long and straight, which makes them easier to travel straight or make small turns. But when the turning radius is too large, long and straight boats are prone to instability. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide a water surface mobile platform and ecological intelligent equipment to solve the problem that long and straight ships in the prior art are not easy to turn sharply.
[0005] The first aspect of this application provides a water surface moving platform, including: a near-circular polygonal float and thruster assemblies symmetrically arranged on both sides of the near-circular polygonal float.
[0006] Preferably, the quasi-circular polygonal float is composed of multiple basic float units, wherein the basic float units include any one or more of the following: triangular basic float units, rectangular basic float units, trapezoidal basic float units, square basic float units, hexagonal basic float units, and circular basic float units.
[0007] Preferably, the basic floating body unit is provided with a buoyancy tube and / or a buoy box.
[0008] Preferably, the basic floating body unit is formed by splicing together the buoyancy tubes as edges; and,
[0009] The buoyancy tube is specifically a sealed hollow rigid tube or a lightweight solid tube.
[0010] Preferably, the basic floating unit includes a support frame and a plurality of buoyancy tubes disposed on the support frame; and,
[0011] The buoyancy tube is specifically a sealed hollow rigid tube or a lightweight solid tube.
[0012] Preferably, the cross-section of the quasi-circular polygonal float includes any one of the following: circular, elliptical, or a polygon similar to a circle or ellipse.
[0013] Preferably, the cross-section of the quasi-circular polygonal float is specifically a polygon similar to a circle or ellipse, wherein the number of sides of the polygon is greater than or equal to 6.
[0014] Preferably, the cross-section of the near-circular polygonal float is elliptical, wherein the ratio of the minor semi-axis to the major semi-axis of the ellipse is greater than or equal to 2 / 3.
[0015] Preferably, the angle between the line connecting the center of symmetry of the quasi-circular polygonal float and any one of the thruster components and the axis of symmetry of the quasi-circular polygonal float is β, where β∈[15°, 75°].
[0016] A second aspect of this application provides an eco-intelligent equipment, which includes a water surface mobile platform provided in this application embodiment, and a water body monitoring device disposed on the water surface mobile platform.
[0017] The surface mobile platform provided in this application includes a near-circular polygonal float and thruster assemblies symmetrically arranged on both sides of the near-circular polygonal float. This allows the surface mobile platform to achieve a differential steering mechanism by controlling the actual output power of the thruster assemblies on both sides of the near-circular polygonal float, thereby achieving steering. Furthermore, during this steering process, due to the near-circular shape of the near-circular polygonal float, the platform has strong anisotropic balance, making it more stable than existing long, straight vessels. When making large-angle turns, the turning radius is smaller than that of current long, straight vessels, and it is less prone to tilting and instability. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0027] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "set up," "install," "connect," and "link" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal communication between two components.

[0028] As mentioned earlier, ships are currently commonly used as mobile platforms on the water, but ships are usually long and straight, which makes it easier for them to go straight or make small turns. However, when the turning range is too large, long and straight ships are prone to instability.
[0029] In view of this, embodiments of this application provide a mobile water surface platform and a water ecological management system, such as Figure 1The diagram shows the specific structure of the water surface moving platform. The water surface moving platform includes a near-circular polygonal float 1 and a thruster assembly 2, wherein the thruster assembly 2 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the near-circular polygonal float 1.
[0030] It is important to note that the cross-section of this type of circular polygonal float 1 is similar to a circle or an ellipse, although the cross-section can also be circular or elliptical. The closer the cross-section of this type of circular polygonal float 1 is to a circle, the stronger the anisotropic balance of the water surface moving platform. Consequently, when making larger turns, its balance is better, and it is less likely to experience instability.
[0031] For example, Figure 2 As shown, the cross-section of this type of circular polygonal float 1 can be circular; for example, Figure 3 As shown, the cross-section of this type of circular polygonal float 1 can be elliptical (or spindle-shaped or other similar circular shapes). Of course, in the case where the cross-section can be elliptical, in order to make the stability of the water surface moving platform meet the actual requirements, the ratio of the minor semi-axis to the major semi-axis of the ellipse should be greater than or equal to 2 / 3 (obviously, when the ratio is 1, it is a circle), so that the ellipse is relatively close to a circle, making its anisotropic balance meet the requirements, and thus making the stability of the water surface moving platform meet the actual requirements.
[0032] As mentioned above, the cross-section of this type of circular polygonal float 1 can be a polygon similar to a circle or an ellipse. Obviously, the more sides the polygon has, the closer its shape is to a circle or an ellipse, which in turn makes the anisotropic balance of the water surface moving platform stronger. In the embodiments of this application, the number of sides of the polygon (referred to as N) needs to be greater than or equal to 6. That is, when the cross-section of this type of circular polygonal float 1 is a polygon, the number of sides N of the polygon is ≥ 6. For example, N can be 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 or other values.
[0033] In addition, for the polygon that resembles a circle or ellipse, the lengths of each side of the polygon can be equal (including completely equal and approximately equal), thus making the polygon an equilateral polygon, which can further improve the anisotropic balance of the circular polygonal float 1.
[0034] As mentioned above, the water surface moving platform includes not only a near-circular polygonal float 1, but also a thruster assembly 2, which is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the near-circular polygonal float 1. This allows the water surface moving platform to move and turn through the thruster assemblies 2 on both sides of the near-circular polygonal float 1.
[0035] For example, during the forward or backward propulsion of the water surface platform, the thruster assemblies 2, located on both sides of the near-circular polygonal float 1, can simultaneously perform forward or reverse rotation operations, thereby smoothly propelling the water surface platform forward or backward. When it is necessary to propel the water surface platform to turn, the actual output power of the two thruster assemblies 2 can be controlled. For example, when turning left, the actual output power of the left thruster assembly 2 is reduced, and the actual output power of the right thruster assembly 2 is increased; conversely, when turning right, the actual output power of the right thruster assembly 2 is reduced, and the actual output power of the left thruster assembly 2 is increased, thereby achieving the desired propulsion. This method of controlling the actual output power of the two-sided thruster assembly 2 enables the water surface moving platform to achieve a differential steering mechanism, thereby achieving steering. During this steering process, due to the near-circular shape of the near-circular polygonal float 1 in the water surface moving platform, it has strong all-directional balance, and is therefore more stable than the long and straight ships in the prior art. It is precisely because of these characteristics that the strong all-directional balance of the near-circular polygonal float 1 enables it to make large-angle turns, even 360-degree turns on the spot, and the turning radius is smaller than that of the current long and straight ships, making it less prone to tilting and instability.
[0036] It should be noted that, in order to improve the propulsion efficiency of thruster assembly 2, it is usually necessary to explain the location of thruster assembly 2, in conjunction with... Figure 1 As shown, the center of symmetry O of the quasi-circular polygonal float 1 can be determined first, and then the line L connecting the center of symmetry O to any thruster assembly 2 can be further determined. The angle between the line L and the axis of symmetry P of the quasi-circular polygonal float 1 is β. It should be noted that this angle β ∈ [15°, 75°], that is, the size of this angle β is greater than or equal to 15° and less than or equal to 75°. Thus, for thruster assemblies 2 set within this angle range, their propulsion efficiency is relatively high, which can meet the actual needs. Of course, within the range of angle β ∈ [15°, 75°], the specific setting position of the thruster assembly 2 usually needs to be determined comprehensively by combining the rated power of the thruster assembly 2 itself, the size of the quasi-circular polygonal float 1, and other factors.
[0037] It should be further explained that the circular polygonal float 1 provided in this embodiment can be assembled from multiple basic float units 11. For example, these basic float units 11 can be assembled by welding, bolting, or other methods to obtain the circular polygonal float 1. The basic float unit 11 includes any one or more of the following: triangular basic float units, rectangular basic float units, trapezoidal basic float units, square basic float units, hexagonal basic float units, circular basic float units, etc.
[0038] In addition, in these basic floating units of triangle, rectangle, trapezoid, square and hexagon, each side can be a straight line or one or two sides can be an arc, which makes it easy to splice them together to obtain this type of circular polygonal floating body 1.
[0039] For example, Figure 4-1 The image shows a triangular basic floating unit 11, where all sides of this triangular basic floating unit 11 are straight lines; as shown... Figure 4-2 The diagram shows a triangular basic floating unit 11, where one side is an arc and the other sides are straight lines. Similarly, for rectangular, trapezoidal, and square basic floating units, all sides can be straight lines, or one or two sides can be arcs.
[0040] Of course, in order for the basic floating unit 11 to provide buoyancy to support the near-circular polygonal floating body 1 to float on the water surface, in practical applications, the basic floating unit 11 may be provided with buoyancy tubes and / or pontoons, thereby providing buoyancy through the buoyancy tubes and / or pontoons. For example, the basic floating unit 11 may include one or more buoyancy tubes, or one or more pontoons, or one or more buoyancy tubes and one or more pontoons.
[0041] In practical applications, the buoyancy tube can be a sealed hollow rigid tube. For example, the two ends of a hollow rigid tube (made of rigid material) can be sealed to obtain the sealed hollow rigid tube. In practical applications, die casting or adding a sealing cap can be used to seal the two ends of the hollow rigid tube to obtain the sealed hollow rigid tube.
[0042] Of course, besides being a sealed, hollow, rigid tube, the buoyancy tube can also be a lightweight solid tube. For example, it can be made from a lightweight material with a density less than that of water.
[0043] In addition, the shape of the buoyancy tube can be square, round or other shapes; there is no specific limitation on the shape of the buoyancy tube.
[0044] The pontoon can be made of rigid material or lightweight material. The interior of the pontoon is a hollow cavity to provide buoyancy.
[0045] For the basic floating unit 11, two factors are typically considered when it floats in water: a rigid support structure and buoyancy to keep it afloat. In this embodiment, where a buoyancy tube can be provided in the basic floating unit 11, the buoyancy tube provides some or all of the buoyancy. The rigid support structure can typically be implemented in various ways.
[0046] For example, in the first implementation, as mentioned earlier, the buoyancy tube is a sealed, hollow, rigid tube. Its body can be made of a rigid material, such as metal, metal alloy, ceramic, or other similar rigid materials, thus making the tube a rigid tube. In this way, the sealed, hollow, rigid tube itself can provide rigid support. Therefore, the basic floating unit 11 can be directly assembled from the buoyancy tube as its edges. For example, the sealed, hollow, rigid tube can be directly used as the edge of the basic floating unit 11 and assembled to obtain the basic floating unit 11. In this case, the sealed, hollow, rigid tube can simultaneously provide buoyancy and rigid support.
[0047] In the second implementation, the basic floating unit 11 includes a support frame and multiple buoyancy tubes disposed on the support frame. In this implementation, the support frame provides rigid support, and the multiple buoyancy tubes are disposed on the support frame to provide buoyancy, for example... Figure 5 As shown, the basic floating unit 11 includes a support frame 111 and multiple buoyancy tubes 112. The support frame 111 can be made of a rigid material to provide rigid support, and the multiple buoyancy tubes 112 can be disposed on the support frame 111. It should be noted that, in this embodiment, since the rigid support is provided by the support frame, the buoyancy tubes 112 can be either sealed hollow rigid tubes or lightweight solid tubes.
[0048] In addition, in order for the thruster assembly 2 to function properly, it is necessary to provide the thruster assembly 2 with the electrical energy required for operation. Therefore, the water surface moving platform may also include an energy device for providing electrical energy to the thruster assembly 1. This energy device may be, for example, a battery assembly, a solar panel assembly, or a fuel cell system. These energy devices can provide relatively clean energy, thereby avoiding environmental pollution.
[0049] The mobile water surface platform provided in this application embodiment can, in practical applications, typically deploy various devices for monitoring (e.g., monitoring water quality), purifying (e.g., purifying toxic substances in water), and maintaining (e.g., maintaining microorganisms and organisms in water) within the platform. These devices can be referred to as water monitoring devices. For example, the mobile water surface platform can be equipped with such a monitoring device, allowing for sample collection at multiple points on the water surface for water quality monitoring. Similarly, the platform can be used to administer purification agents at multiple purification points to purify the water. Likewise, the platform can be used to maintain microorganisms and organisms in the water.
[0050] Therefore, the water surface mobile platform provided in this application embodiment can be applied to the field of water ecological management. Specifically, this application embodiment can also provide an eco-intelligent equipment, which includes the water surface mobile platform provided in this application embodiment and a water body monitoring device installed on the water surface mobile platform. In this way, the eco-intelligent equipment uses the water surface mobile platform as a platform that can move smoothly on the water surface. By moving the water surface mobile platform on the water surface and using the water body monitoring device, it can monitor, purify, and maintain multiple different areas in the water body.
[0051] The way the water monitoring device is set on the water surface mobile platform can be specifically determined by taking into account the water monitoring device's own waterproof performance and other aspects. For example, it can be set on the surface of the circular polygonal float 1 in the water surface mobile platform, or it can be set on the side, bottom or other positions of the circular polygonal float 1. There is no specific limitation here.
[0052] It is important to note that when carrying out water management for lakes and rivers, considering that the water surface of lakes and rivers may be relatively narrow, if water monitoring devices are deployed on long, straight vessels, it will be difficult to make large-angle turns due to the relatively poor anisotropic balance of long, straight vessels. This may also lead to tilting and instability when turning.
[0053] If the eco-intelligent equipment provided in this application embodiment is used, the eco-intelligent equipment is a water body monitoring device set on the water surface mobile platform provided in this application embodiment. Due to the strong anisotropic balance of the near-circular polygonal float 1 in the water surface mobile platform, it can make large-angle turns, and the turning radius is small when making large-angle turns, making it less likely to tilt and become unstable. Therefore, the eco-intelligent equipment can be applied to the scenario of water body management of lakes and rivers.
[0054] Although embodiments of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such modifications and variations all fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.
