Its functions cover multiple aspects of monitoring, including optics, acoustics, physicochemistry, etc., providing strong support for marine scientific research, resource exploration, and environmental protection.
[0003] Portable seabed observation equipment must be used in close conjunction with a fixed support to achieve the best observation results. The fixed support provides a stable installation platform for the equipment, ensuring that the equipment remains stable in the complex seabed environment and avoiding the impact of shaking on the observation data.
[0004] Meanwhile, the adaptable design of the support allows for easy installation of different types of observation equipment, and its portability is also compatible with the equipment, making it convenient for researchers to carry and deploy as a whole. In actual operation, researchers first fix the equipment on the support, then adjust the support status according to the seabed topography and observation needs, and then start the equipment to conduct precise observations.
[0005] Regarding the existing related technologies, the inventor believes that there are the following drawbacks: the existing seabed observation equipment is fixed behind the support, and the connecting wires of the equipment are usually tied to the support with cable ties. When it is necessary to disassemble the observation equipment, it is necessary to use scissors to cut the cable ties one by one and remove the connecting wires, which is a rather cumbersome operation.

[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments.
[0021] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 4 This embodiment provides a portable underwater observation equipment mounting bracket, including a mounting frame 1 and a fixing mechanism 2. The fixing mechanism 2 is fixedly connected to both sides of the mounting frame 1. The bottom of the mounting frame 1 is fixedly connected to a base 3, and the bottom of the mounting frame 1 is fixedly connected to a chassis 4. A fixing ring 5 is provided on the top of the chassis 4. The two ends of the chassis 4 and the fixing ring 5 are fixedly connected by bolts. The fixing mechanism 2 includes a side plate 6 and a retaining ring 8. One end of the retaining ring 8 is rotatably connected to the inside of the side plate 6, and the other end of the retaining ring 8 is plugged into the inside of the side plate 6. A rotating shaft 9 is fixedly connected to the top of the retaining ring 8, and a ratchet 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating shaft 9. A pawl 11 is provided on one side of the ratchet 10, and a connecting rod 17 is fixedly connected to the top of one end of the pawl 11. A movable ring 16 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting rod 17.
[0022] When it is necessary to fix the portable seabed observation equipment, the fixing ring 5 is opened, the equipment is placed between the chassis 4 and the fixing ring 5, and then the chassis 4 and the fixing ring 5 are fixed together with bolts, which makes it easy to fix the seabed observation equipment.
[0023] Secondly, when it is necessary to fix the wires of the equipment, open the retaining ring 8, place the wire inside the retaining ring 8, and then rotate the retaining ring 8 so that one end of the retaining ring 8 rotates around the rotating shaft 9, so that the other end of the retaining ring 8 is inserted into the inside of the side plate 6, thereby squeezing and fixing the wire. When the retaining ring 8 rotates around the rotating shaft 9, the rotating shaft 9 will drive the ratchet 10 to rotate. The rotation of the ratchet 10 will drive one end of the pawl 11 to move. When the ratchet 10 stops rotating, the pawl 11 will limit the ratchet 10 to prevent the ratchet 10 from sliding and reversing, thereby fixing the position of the retaining ring 8. The operation is simple and convenient.
[0024] Furthermore, when it is necessary to open the retaining ring 8, pull the movable ring 16. The movable ring 16 will drive the connecting rod 17 to move, and the connecting rod 17 will drive the pawl 11 to rotate, so that one end of the pawl 11 is disengaged from the tooth groove of the ratchet 10, thereby releasing the ratchet 10 from its limit and making it easier to open the retaining ring 8 to remove the wire.
[0025] Furthermore, two clamping blocks 7 are fixedly connected to both ends of one side of the side plate 6. The clamping blocks 7 and the outside of the fixing frame 1 are fixedly connected by bolts. The two clamping blocks 7 are snapped onto the outside of the fixing frame 1, and the clamping blocks 7 and the side plate 6 are fixed by bolts, so as to facilitate the fixing of the position of the fixing mechanism 2 according to the wires in different directions.
[0026] Furthermore, the side plate 6 has a first inner cavity 12 machined inside, the ratchet 10 is rotatably connected to the inside of the first inner cavity 12, and a second inner cavity 13 is machined at one end of the first inner cavity 12, the pawl 11 is rotatably connected to the inside of the second inner cavity 13. By providing the first inner cavity 12, the first inner cavity 12 will limit the movement of the ratchet 10, and by providing the second inner cavity 13, the second inner cavity 13 will limit the movement of the pawl 11.
[0027] Furthermore, a fixing block 15 is fixedly connected to one end of the second inner cavity 13, and a return spring 14 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing block 15. One end of the return spring 14 is fixedly connected to one end of the pawl 11. When the movable ring 16 drives the connecting rod 17 to move, the connecting rod 17 will drive the return spring 14 to stretch. When the movable ring 16 is released, the return spring 14 will retract and return to its original position. One end of the return spring 14 will drive one end of the pawl 11 to rotate and return to its original position.
[0028] Furthermore, a movable groove 19 is machined at the bottom of the first inner cavity 12, and the rotating shaft 9 is rotatably connected inside the movable groove 19. When the retaining ring 8 drives the rotating shaft 9 to rotate, the rotating shaft 9 will rotate around the inside of the movable groove 19. The movable groove 19 will limit the movement of the rotating shaft 9, so that the retaining ring 8 remains stable when rotating.
[0029] Working principle: By opening the retaining ring 8, the wire is placed inside the retaining ring 8. Then, the retaining ring 8 is rotated so that one end of the retaining ring 8 is inserted into the inside of the side plate 6, and the wire is squeezed and fixed. When the retaining ring 8 drives the rotating shaft 9 to rotate, the rotating shaft 9 will drive the ratchet 10 to rotate. When the ratchet 10 stops rotating, the pawl 11 will limit the ratchet 10 to prevent the ratchet 10 from rotating in the opposite direction, thereby fixing the position of the retaining ring 8. The operation is simple and convenient.
[0030] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art based on this utility model shall fall within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
