Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of steel buoy technology, and in particular to a steel buoy with an adjustable counterweight structure. Background Technology

[0002] A buoy is a navigational aid that floats on the water's surface. It is anchored in a designated location to mark the extent of a navigation channel, indicate shoals, obstructions, or indicate specific purposes. Buoys are the most numerous and widely used type of navigational aid. They are placed in places where it is difficult or unsuitable to establish fixed navigational aids. The function of a buoy is to mark shoals or obstacles that endanger navigational safety. Buoys equipped with lights are called light buoys and are used to aid navigation in waters navigable day and night. Some buoys are also equipped with radar transponders, radio beacons, fog warning signals, and marine survey instruments.

[0003] Traditional steel buoys have some drawbacks. In actual use, in order to keep the steel buoys relatively stable in the sea with large waves, counterweights are installed on the steel buoys. However, the weight of conventional counterweights is limited, which means that when the wind is strong, the weight of the counterweights cannot provide a stable stabilizing force for the steel buoys. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main purpose of this invention is to provide a steel buoy with an adjustable counterweight structure, which can effectively solve the problems in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A steel buoy with an adjustable counterweight structure includes an upper mast and a main buoyancy tank. A counterweight adjustment mechanism is provided on the outer side of the upper mast. The counterweight adjustment mechanism includes a connecting ring fixedly connected to the outer side of each upper mast. A docking block is fixedly connected to the front end of the connecting ring. A docking plate is detachably connected to the front end of the docking block. A limit frame is fixedly connected to the lower end of the docking plate. A tripod is fixedly connected to one side of the upper mast. Several fixing components are fixedly connected to the outer side of the tripod. One end of each fixing component is fixedly connected to one end of a limit rod, and the other end of the limit rod is movably connected to the limit frame. A connecting piece is sleeved on the outer side of the limit rod, and a counterweight block is fixedly connected to the lower end of the connecting piece.

[0007] Preferably, a baffle is fixedly connected to the rear end of the docking plate near the upper side of the docking block, and bolts are threaded inside the docking plate.

[0008] Preferably, the limiting frame is triangular in shape, the limiting rod is L-shaped, and the lower end of the baffle is in contact with the upper end of the docking block.

[0019] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0020] like Figure 1-4As shown, a steel buoy with an adjustable counterweight structure includes an upper mast 1 and a main buoy 3. There are three upper masts 1. A counterweight adjustment mechanism 6 is provided on the outer side of the upper mast 1. The counterweight adjustment mechanism 6 includes a connecting ring 61 fixedly connected to the outer side of each upper mast 1. A docking block 62 is fixedly connected to the front end of the connecting ring 61. A docking plate 63 is detachably connected to the front end of the docking block 62. A limit frame 64 is fixedly connected between the lower ends of the three docking plates 63. A tripod 65 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the three upper masts 1. Several fixing parts 66 are fixedly connected to the outer side of the tripod 65. One end of each fixing part 66 is fixedly connected to one end of a limit rod 67. The other end of the limit rod 67 is movably connected to the limit frame 64. A connecting piece 68 is sleeved on the outer side of the limit rod 67. A counterweight block 69 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the connecting piece 68.

[0021] In this embodiment, a baffle 610 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the docking plate 63 near the upper side of the docking block 62. A bolt 611 is threadedly connected inside the docking plate 63. The limiting frame 64 is triangular in shape, and the limiting rod 67 is L-shaped. The lower end of the baffle 610 contacts the upper end of the docking block 62. The bolt 611 extends into the interior of the docking block 62 and is threadedly connected to the docking block 62. The limiting rod 67 extends into the interior of the limiting frame 64 and is slidably connected to the limiting frame 64. The triangular frame 65 is located below the limiting frame 64, and the limiting frame 64 is located outside the upper mast 1.

[0022] Specifically, in windy weather, first loosen bolt 611 to disengage it from the connecting block 62 and the connecting plate 63. Then pull the limiting frame 64 upwards to disengage it from the limiting rod 67. Next, sequentially attach multiple sets of connecting pieces 68 onto the limiting rod 67, positioning multiple sets of counterweights 69 sequentially on the outer side of the upper mast 1. Controlling the number of connecting pieces 68 attached to the upper end of the limiting rod 67 controls the number of counterweights 69, thus adjusting the downward pressure of the counterweights 69. Then, pull the limiting frame 64 downwards to engage the baffle 610 on the connecting block 62, positioning the limiting rod 67 inside the limiting frame 64. Finally, loosen bolt 611... The bolts 611 are inserted into the docking plate 63 and docking block 62, thereby limiting the position of the limiting frame 64 and fixing the counterweight 69 to the outside of the upper mast 1. In the event of strong winds, the counterweight 69 causes the connecting piece 68 to swing slightly, and the multiple sets of counterweights 69 exert downward pressure on the upper mast 1, thus making the main floating pod 3 float stably on the water surface. By connecting the connecting piece 68 to the outside of the limiting rod 67 and simultaneously locking the limiting frame 64 to the outside of the limiting rod 67, the multiple sets of counterweights 69 can be fixed to the outside of the upper mast 1. This structural design can effectively control the magnitude of the downward pressure by adjusting the number of counterweights 69, thereby ensuring that the main floating pod 3 remains in a stable floating state on the water surface.

[0023] In this embodiment, the lower end of the upper mast 1 is fixedly connected to the mounting base 2, the main floating pod 3 is installed at the lower end of the mounting base 2, the upper end of the upper mast 1 is fixedly connected to the mounting ring 4, and the upper end of the mounting ring 4 is equipped with a wind vane 5.

[0024] Specifically, the upper mast 1 is placed on the water surface, so that the main floating pod 3 floats on the water surface, and the wind vane 5 drifts with the wind.

[0025] Working principle:

[0026] In use, first, place the upper mast 1 on the water surface, allowing the main floating pod 3 to float on the water, thus causing the wind vane 5 to drift with the wind. In case of strong winds, first loosen bolt 611, disengaging it from the docking block 62 and docking plate 63. Then, pull the limiting frame 64 upwards, disengaging it from the limiting rod 67. Next, sequentially attach multiple sets of connecting pieces 68 onto the limiting rod 67, positioning multiple sets of counterweights 69 sequentially on the outside of the upper mast 1. By controlling the number of connecting pieces 68 attached to the upper end of the limiting rod 67, the number of counterweights 69 is controlled, thus adjusting the downward pressure of the counterweights 69. Finally, pull the limiting frame 64 downwards, causing the baffle 610 to engage with the docking block 62, thus positioning the limiting rod 67 within the limiting range. Inside the support frame 64, bolts 611 are then screwed into the docking plate 63 and docking block 62, thereby limiting the position of the support frame 64 and fixing the counterweight 69 to the outside of the upper mast 1. In the event of strong winds, the counterweight 69 causes the connecting piece 68 to swing slightly, and the multiple sets of counterweights 69 exert downward pressure on the upper mast 1, thus making the main floating pod 3 float stably on the water surface. By connecting the connecting piece 68 to the outside of the limiting rod 67 and simultaneously locking the support frame 64 to the outside of the limiting rod 67, multiple sets of counterweights 69 can be fixed to the outside of the upper mast 1. This structural design can effectively control the downward pressure by adjusting the number of counterweights 69, thereby ensuring that the main floating pod 3 remains in a stable floating state on the water surface.
