Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a filling interface, specifically a split-type filling interface for unmanned surface vessels. Background Technology
[0002] In the existing unmanned surface vessel (USV) hull filling process, the filling interface and filling gun are integrated. After the filling machine is connected to the filling interface, the material in the filling machine will pass through the filling interface and remain in the filling interface. If the material stays in the filling interface for a long time, it will solidify in the filling interface. Since the filling interface and filling gun are integrated, it is impossible to clean the filling interface. The filling interface and filling gun must be replaced at the same time, which greatly increases the production cost. Utility Model Content
[0003] This invention provides a split-type filling interface for unmanned surface vessels, which solves the problem of materials solidified in the filling interface being impossible to clean.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0005] A split-type filling interface for unmanned surface vessels includes a first connector and a second connector. The first connector has an external thread, and the second connector has an internal thread. The first connector is threaded onto the second connector, so that the cavity of the first connector communicates with the cavity of the second connector. The first connector is provided with multiple feed holes, each of which communicates with the cavity of the first connector.
[0006] Furthermore, there are three feed ports, each connected to the filling machine via a hose.
[0007] Furthermore, the first connector is integrally formed and includes a base and a first connecting part, the first connecting part being located on one side of the base; the feed hole is provided on the base, and the first connecting part is provided with an external thread.
[0008] Furthermore, the second joint has a funnel-shaped cross-section.
[0009] Furthermore, the second connector is integrally formed and includes a second connecting part, a receiving part, and an extension part connected in sequence. The second connecting part is provided with an internal thread, the extension part is provided with an external thread, and the extension part is threadedly connected to the filling gun nozzle.
[0010] Furthermore, the first connecting part and the second connecting part are threaded together.
[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial technical effects of this utility model are:
[0012] This invention features a threaded connection between a first connector and a second connector, with the second connector connecting to the filling gun nozzle. After each filling of the unmanned surface vessel (USV), the first and second connectors are disassembled, and each is cleaned separately using a cleaning tool, extending the service life of both connectors. The detachable connection between the second connector and the filling gun nozzle solves the problem of not being able to clean the material inside the second connector, also extending the service life of the filling gun. Attached Figure Description
[0013] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a split-type filling interface for unmanned surface vessels.
[0014] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the feed port. Detailed Implementation
[0015] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a split-type filling interface for an unmanned surface vessel (USV) includes a first connector 1 and a second connector 2. The first connector 1 has external threads, and the second connector 2 has internal threads. The first connector 1 is threaded onto the second connector 2, allowing the cavity of the first connector 1 to communicate with the cavity of the second connector 2. The first connector 1 is provided with multiple feed holes 3, each of which communicates with a cavity of the first connector 1. There are three feed holes 3 in total, and each of the three feed holes 3 is connected to a filling machine via a flexible hose. The filling machine outputs three different materials through the three feed holes 3, and fills the USV with the three materials through the first connector 1 and the second connector 2.
[0016] The first connector 1 is integrally formed and includes a base 11 and a first connecting part, the first connecting part being located on one side of the base 11; the feed hole 3 is disposed on the base 11, and the first connecting part is provided with external threads. The second connector 2 has a funnel-shaped cross-section. The second connector 2 is integrally formed and includes a second connecting part 21, a receiving part 22, and an extension part 23 connected in sequence; the second connecting part 21 is provided with internal threads, and the extension part 23 is provided with external threads, the extension part 23 being threadedly connected to the filling gun nozzle. The first connecting part is threadedly connected to the second connecting part 21. After the unmanned surface vessel hull is filled, there will be residual material remaining in the first connector 1 and the second connector 2. If not cleaned in time, the residual material will solidify and block the feed hole 3. After filling the unmanned surface vessel, this device can separate the first connector 1 from the second connector 2, and separate the first connector 1 from the filling machine and the second connector 2 from the filling nozzle. The first connector 1 and the second connector 2 can be cleaned with cleaning tools, so that the first connector 1 and the second connector 2 can be used repeatedly for a long time, thus extending the service life of the first connector 1 and the second connector 2.
[0017] Of course, the above description is not intended to limit the present utility model, and the present utility model is not limited to the examples given above. Any changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the present utility model should also fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
