Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of marine technology, and more specifically, it relates to a shore power cable entry channel structure. Background Technology
[0002] Shore power compartments are typically installed on the shore. This allows for easy access to shore power when new energy vessels are berthed (shore power supply), and disables shore power when the vessel departs. With existing vessel structures, charging requires cables to pass through a channel into the shore power compartment, which facilitates cable entry. However, after the vessel leaves the shore, corrosive liquids such as seawater can enter the compartment through this channel, potentially damaging internal components.
[0003] Existing technology includes a "Self-Dehumidifying Shore Power Connection Box with Visual Recognition Function" (publication number CN219394077U). This technology discloses a self-dehumidifying shore power connection box with visual recognition function, comprising: a box body, an outgoing line compartment, an incoming line compartment, a control compartment, a dehumidifying device, a display screen, and a visual recognition device. The box body is internally divided into an outgoing line compartment and an incoming line compartment. The outgoing line compartment is located at the front of the box body, the incoming line compartment is located at the rear bottom of the box body, and the control compartment is located inside the left side of the box body. The dehumidifying device is installed inside the incoming line compartment, the display screen is installed on the outside left side of the box body, and the visual recognition device is installed on the outside left side of the box body and connected to the display screen cable. This utility model uses a locking electromagnet in conjunction with a limit switch to ensure wiring safety; a temperature and humidity controller monitors the temperature and humidity inside the connection box to ensure safe operation; and a visual recognition device with infrared recognition function automatically displays parameters such as power consumption when personnel approach, enabling real-time visual monitoring of the connection box, resulting in high overall safety and reliability.
[0004] However, this technology does not address the technical issues and solutions of this application. Utility Model Content
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a shore power cable access channel structure that is simple in structure, facilitates the introduction of cables into the shore power compartment for access to shore power when the ship is berthed, and achieves channel closure when the ship leaves to prevent corrosive liquids such as seawater from entering the compartment, thus achieving a protective function.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0007] This utility model is a shore power cable entry channel structure. One end of the connecting pipe section component is on the shore power compartment, and the other end of the pipe section component is provided with a movable component. One side of the movable component is movably connected to one side of the pipe section component through a hinge component. A rubber component is provided on the inner side of the movable component, and a fixed component is provided on the movable component or the pipe section component.
[0008] One end of the pipe section extends into the interior of the shore power compartment wall, while the other end of the pipe section is located outside the shore power compartment wall.
[0009] The pipe section component is provided with a first connecting plate at one end outside the wall of the shore power compartment, and a second connecting plate is provided outside the wall of the shore power compartment.
[0010] The first connecting plate and the second connecting plate are connected by connecting bolts.
[0011] A limiting component is provided at the outer end of the pipe section component.
[0012] The fixing component is configured in an n-shaped structure.
[0013] When the movable part is attached to the outer end of the pipe section component, the fixed part is configured to be able to be snapped onto the outside of the movable part and the limiting part.
[0014] When the movable part is attached to the outer end of the pipe section component, the rubber part is configured to be able to be snapped into the inner wall of the pipe section component.
[0015] The rubber component is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the movable component by bolts.
[0016] When the movable part is attached to the outer end of the pipe section component, the positioning bolt is configured to pass through the through hole on the fixed part and be screwed onto the threaded hole on the movable part.
[0017] The working principle and beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0018] The shore power cable access channel structure of this utility model includes a pipe section component installed on the wall of the shore power compartment. This pipe section component connects the interior and exterior of the shore power compartment. One end of the pipe section component is connected to the wall of the shore power compartment, and the other end has a movable component. One side of the movable component is movably connected to the other side of the pipe section component via a hinge component, ensuring reliable connection between the movable component and the pipe section component. The movable component can rotate relative to the pipe section component. A rubber component is installed on the inner surface of the movable component, providing a reliable seal between the movable component and the pipe section component when the movable component is in contact with the end of the pipe section component. A fixing component is installed on the movable component or the pipe section component. When the movable component is in contact with the end of the pipe section component, the fixing component secures both the movable component and the pipe section component, ensuring reliable sealing of the pipe section component by the movable component. Specifically, when the ship is berthed, the fixing component is removed, and the movable component is flipped outwards, moving away from the pipe section component. This opens the pipe section component, allowing the ship's cable to enter the shore power compartment for easy access to shore power. When the ship leaves, the cable is removed from the pipe section component. At this time, the movable component is flipped inward and re-fitted into the pipe section component. Then, the movable component and the pipe section component are fixed by the fixed component, thus sealing the pipe section component as a passage and preventing corrosive liquids such as seawater from entering the compartment, which protects the components inside the shore power compartment.

[0023] The following description, with reference to the accompanying drawings, provides a more detailed explanation of the specific embodiments of this utility model, including the shape and structure of each component, the relative positions and connections between the parts, the functions and working principles of each part:
[0024] As attached Figure 1 Appendix Figure 2As shown, this utility model is a shore power cable entry channel structure. One end of a connecting pipe section component 1 is mounted on the shore power compartment, and the other end of the pipe section component 1 is equipped with a movable component 2. One side of the movable component 2 is movably connected to one side of the pipe section component 1 via a hinge component 5. A rubber component 3 is provided on the inner surface of the movable component 2, and a fixed component 4 is provided on the movable component 2 or the pipe section component 1. This structure addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing an improved technical solution. In this structural configuration, the pipe section component 1 is mounted on the shore power compartment wall 6. The pipe section component 1 connects the interior and exterior of the shore power compartment. One end of the pipe section component 1 is connected to the shore power compartment wall, and the other end of the pipe section component 1 is equipped with a movable component 2. One side of the movable component 2 is movably connected to one side of the pipe section component 1 via a hinge component 5. The hinge component 5 ensures a reliable connection between the movable component 2 and the pipe section component 1, while allowing the movable component 2 to rotate relative to the pipe section component 1. The rubber component 3 is provided on the inner surface of the movable component 2. When the movable component 2 is in contact with the end of the pipe section component 1, the rubber component 3 provides a reliable seal between the movable component 2 and the pipe section component 1. A fixing component 4 is installed on the movable component 2 or the pipe section component 1. When the movable component 2 is attached to the end of the pipe section component 1, the fixing component 4 secures the movable component 2 and the pipe section component 1, ensuring that the movable component 2 reliably seals the pipe section component 1. Specifically, when the ship is berthed, the fixing component 4 is removed, and the movable component 2 is flipped outward, moving away from the pipe section component 1, thus opening the pipe section component 1, which serves as a passageway. At this time, the ship's cables can pass through the pipe section component 1 to enter the shore power compartment, facilitating shore power connection. When the ship departs, the cables are removed from the pipe section component 1, and the movable component 2 is flipped inward, reattaching to the pipe section component 1. The fixing component 4 then secures the movable component 2 to the pipe section component 1, achieving the closure of the pipe section component 1 as a passageway. This prevents corrosive liquids such as seawater from entering the compartment and protects the components inside the shore power compartment. The shore power cable entry channel structure described in this utility model is simple in structure. When the ship is berthed, it facilitates the introduction of cables into the shore power compartment to connect to shore power. When the ship leaves, the channel is closed to prevent corrosive liquids such as seawater from entering the compartment, thus achieving a protective function.
[0025] One end of the pipe section component 1 extends into the interior of the shore power compartment bulkhead 6, while the other end is located outside the shore power compartment bulkhead 6. In this structure, the pipe section component 1 is hollow, allowing for communication between the interior and exterior of the shore power compartment and facilitating the introduction of cables into the ship.
[0026] A first connecting plate 7 is installed at one end of the pipe section component 1 located outside the shore power compartment bulkhead 6, and a second connecting plate 8 is installed outside the shore power compartment bulkhead 6. The first connecting plate 7 and the second connecting plate 8 are connected by connecting bolts 9. In this structure, the first connecting plate 7 is welded to the upper part of the pipe section component, and the second connecting plate 8 is welded to the outside of the shore power compartment bulkhead 6. The pipe section component 1 is reliably connected by connecting bolts, ensuring structural stability.
[0027] A limiting component 10 is provided at the outer end of the pipe segment component 1. The fixing component 4 is configured with an n-shaped structure. When the movable component 2 is attached to the outer end of the pipe segment component 1, the fixing component 4 is configured to be able to be snapped onto the outside of the movable component 2 and the limiting component 10. With the above structure, when the movable component 2 blocks the pipe segment component 1, one side of the movable component is connected to the pipe segment component through a hinge component, while the other side of the movable component and the limiting component are fixed by the fixing component 4, ensuring that the movable component is reliably attached to the end of the pipe segment component, thereby achieving reliable blocking of the movable component.
[0028] When the movable part 2 is in contact with the outer end of the pipe section component 1, the rubber part 3 is configured to be able to be snapped onto the inner wall of the pipe section component 1. The rubber part 3 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the movable part 2 by bolts. With the above structure, when the movable part 2 seals the pipe section component 1, the rubber part 3 reliably achieves a seal on the pipe section component, ensuring isolation between the interior and exterior of the compartment.
[0029] When the movable part 2 is attached to the outer end of the pipe section part 1, the positioning bolt is configured to pass through the through hole on the fixed part 4 and be screwed onto the threaded hole on the movable part. With the above structure, when the movable part 2 blocks the pipe section part 1, the positioning bolt reliably fixes the fixed part.
[0030] The shore power cable entry channel structure of this utility model includes a pipe segment component 1 installed on the shore power compartment wall 6. The pipe segment component 1 connects the interior and exterior of the shore power compartment. One end of the pipe segment component 1 is connected to the shore power compartment wall, and the other end is equipped with a movable component 2. One side of the movable component 2 is movably connected to one side of the pipe segment component 1 via a hinge component 5. The hinge component 5 ensures a reliable connection between the movable component 2 and the pipe segment component 1. Simultaneously, the movable component 2 can rotate relative to the pipe segment component 1. A rubber component 3 is installed on the inner surface of the movable component 2. When the movable component 2 is in contact with the end of the pipe segment component 1, the rubber component 3 provides a reliable seal between the movable component 2 and the pipe segment component 1. A fixing component 4 is installed on either the movable component 2 or the pipe segment component 1. When the movable component 2 is in contact with the end of the pipe segment component 1, the fixing component 4 secures the movable component 2 and the pipe segment component 1, ensuring that the movable component 2 reliably seals the pipe segment component 1. Specifically, when the ship is berthed, the fixed component 4 is removed, and the movable component 2 is flipped outwards, moving away from the pipe section component 1. This opens the pipe section component 1, which serves as a passageway, allowing the ship's cables to enter the shore power compartment for easy access to shore power. When the ship departs, the cables are removed from the pipe section component 1, and the movable component 2 is flipped inwards, re-attaching to the pipe section component 1. The fixed component 4 then secures the movable component 2 to the pipe section component 1, sealing the passageway and preventing corrosive liquids such as seawater from entering the compartment, thus protecting the components inside the shore power compartment.
