Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of stage equipment technology, and more specifically, relates to a water cannon salute machine. Background Technology

[0002] In stage performances, cannon machines and water cannon machines are commonly used to create stage effects. Cannon machines use compressed gas to instantly spray ribbons, sequins, petals, smoke, etc., to create corresponding stage effects, while water cannon machines use high-pressure spraying of water mist, water columns, or water splashes to create dynamic visual effects. In related technologies, there are already composite devices that integrate the functions of water cannons and cannons, namely water cannon and cannon machines. Water cannon and cannon machines include gas tanks, water cannon pipes, and cannon pipes. When the water cannon pipe is connected to the gas tank, it can achieve water effects, and when the cannon pipe is connected to the gas tank, it can achieve cannon effects. However, when one of the water cannon pipes or cannon pipes is in use, the other is idle. The common practice for idle pipes is to place them randomly on the ground or next to equipment. This method poses safety hazards such as people tripping or getting injured. Utility Model Content

[0024] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0025] Reference Figures 1 to 4As shown, a preferred embodiment of the water cannon salute machine of this application includes a housing 1, an air tank assembly 2, a first fixing assembly 3, a water cannon pipe 4, and a salute pipe 5. The top wall of the housing 1 is provided with a clearance hole 101. The air tank assembly 2 includes a tank body 21, and the tank body 21 has an output pipe 211. The tank body 21 is located inside the housing 1, and the output pipe 211 extends through the clearance hole 101 to the outside of the housing 1. One of the water cannon pipe 4 and the salute pipe 5 is detachably connected to one end of the output pipe 211 located outside the housing 1, and the other is detachably connected to the housing 1 through the first fixing assembly 3.

[0026] In practical applications, one of the water cannon pipe 4 and the salute pipe 5 can be detachably connected to the end of the output pipe 211 located outside the housing 1. When the water cannon pipe 4 is connected to the output pipe 211, a water special effect stage effect can be achieved. When the salute pipe 5 is connected to the output pipe 211, a salute effect stage effect can be achieved. Since when one of the water cannon pipe 4 and the salute pipe 5 is connected to the output pipe 211, the other of the water cannon pipe 4 and the salute pipe 5 is an idle pipe. This idle pipe is connected to the housing 1 through the first fixing component 3. When the water cannon salute machine is working, personnel will not be tripped or injured by the idle pipe. That is, the water cannon salute machine of this application solves the safety hazard problem caused by the random placement of the idle pipe.

[0027] In this embodiment, the first fixing component 3 includes a first fixing plate 31, a second fixing plate 32, and a connecting strap 33. The first fixing plate 31 is fixedly connected to the top wall of the housing 1, and the second fixing plate 32 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the housing 1. The second fixing plate 32 has a fixing hole 3201 located on the upper side of the housing 1. One end of the connecting strap 33 along its length is fixedly connected to the first fixing plate 31. The connecting strap 33 passes through the fixing hole 3201 and binds one of the water cannon pipe 4 and the salute pipe 5 to the housing 1. The water cannon pipe 4 / salute pipe 5 is detachably connected to the housing 1 by binding. The structure is simple, and the binding and disassembly operations are relatively convenient. For example, the salute pipe 5 is connected to the output pipe 211, while the water cannon pipe 4 is bound to the housing 1 by the connecting strap 33.

[0028] In some embodiments, the connecting strap 33 can be tightened by tying a slip knot to secure the water cannon pipe 4 / salute pipe 5.

[0029] In this embodiment, the connecting strap 33 is a Velcro cable tie. Its advantage is that the water cannon pipe 4 / salute pipe 5 can be tied tightly by sticking it on, and the water cannon pipe 4 / salute pipe 5 can be separated from the box body 1 by tearing it off, which is simple to operate.

[0030] Preferably, there are two first fixing components 3, which are spaced apart and arranged in a straight line. Thus, the two first fixing components 3 can tightly bind the two ends of the water cannon pipe 4 / salute pipe 5 along its length, resulting in high stability.

[0031] In other embodiments, the number of first fixing components 3 may be three, four or more, and adjacent first fixing components 3 may be spaced apart. This application does not limit this.

[0032] In this embodiment, the end of the output pipe 211 extending outside the housing 1 has a first thread (not shown in the figure), the end of the water cannon pipe 4 along its length has a second thread (not shown in the figure), and the end of the salute pipe 5 along its length has a third thread (not shown in the figure). The second thread and the third thread are both used to connect with the first thread. That is, the water cannon pipe 4 and the output pipe 211 are connected by threads to achieve a detachable connection, and the salute pipe 5 and the output pipe 211 are also connected by threads to achieve a detachable connection. The structure is simple and the operation is convenient. It should be noted that the relevant structure of the threaded connection is the prior art, and this application will not elaborate on it in detail.

[0033] In this embodiment, the tank 21 is cylindrical with its axis extending horizontally. Both ends of the tank 21 along its axial direction have fixed shafts 212, and the output pipe 211 is located on the peripheral wall of the tank 21. The water cannon salute machine also includes a mounting frame 6 and a second fixing component 7. The mounting frame 6 is fixedly connected inside the housing 1. The fixed shafts 212 at both ends of the tank 21 along its axial direction are fixedly connected to the mounting frame 6 by a second fixing component 7. That is, there are two second fixing components 7. One second fixing component 7 fixes one fixed shaft 212 to the mounting frame 6, and the other second fixing component 7 fixes the other fixed shaft 212 to the mounting frame 6. This method realizes the installation of the tank 21, which has a simple structure and is easy to install.

[0034] Furthermore, the clearance hole 101 is a strip-shaped hole, extending along the first direction X in its length direction. The first direction X extends horizontally and is perpendicular to the axial direction of the tank body 21. Along the axial direction of the tank body 21, two opposite sidewalls of the box body 1 are provided with recessed mounting spaces 102, which communicate with the interior of the box body 1. The tank body 21 and the bottom surface of the inner cavity of the box body 1 are at a distance. The fixing shaft 212 is coaxially arranged with the tank body 21. The fixing shaft 212 at one end of the tank body 21 along its axial direction is located in the mounting space 102 on one sidewall of the box body 1, and the fixing shaft 212 at the other end of the tank body 21 along its axial direction is located in the mounting space 102 on the other sidewall of the box body 1. Each mounting space 102 is provided with a second fixing component 7, which includes a guide shaft support 71 and a hand-tightening bolt 72. The guide shaft support 71 and the mounting bracket 6... The guide shaft support 71 extends into the corresponding installation space 102, and the hand-tightening bolt 72 is located in the corresponding installation space 102 and connected to the guide shaft support 71. The hand-tightening bolt 72 fixes the corresponding fixed shaft 212 in the mounting hole of the guide shaft support 71. Specifically, the hand-tightening bolt 72 and the guide shaft support 71 are existing technologies, and will not be described in detail in this application. With this structure, the second fixing component 7 allows the operator to rotate the hand-tightening bolt 72 at the installation space 102 to create a gap between the outer circumferential surface of the fixed shaft 212 and the inner wall surface of the mounting hole of the guide shaft support 71. At this time, the fixed shaft 212 can rotate. Based on this, the operator can adjust the angle of the water cannon pipe 4 / salute pipe 5 by driving the tank 21 to rotate, thereby adjusting the relevant stage effects. The operation is simple and convenient, and the water cannon salute machine has high applicability.

[0035] It should be noted that the strip-shaped clearance hole 101 provides space for adjusting the angle of the water cannon tube 4 / salute tube 5; the tank body 21 is at a distance from the bottom surface of the inner cavity of the box body 1, the purpose of which is to allow the tank body 21 to rotate smoothly.

[0036] In this embodiment, the gas tank assembly 2 further includes a solenoid valve 22, a pressure relief valve 23, and an air inlet connector 24. The solenoid valve 22 is connected to the output pipe 211, and the pressure relief valve 23 and the air inlet connector 24 are both connected to the tank body 21, with the pressure relief valve 23 and the air inlet connector 24 spaced apart from the output pipe 211. In practical applications, the air inlet connector 24 is connected to an air compressor via a pipe. The air compressor inputs high-pressure gas into the tank body 21 through the pipe and the air inlet connector 24, and then controls the solenoid valve 22... When energized, the output pipe 211 is turned on, and high-pressure gas is output from the output pipe 211. When the output pipe 211 is connected to the water cannon pipe 4, the output pipe 211 outputs high-pressure gas while the water cannon pipe 4 inputs water. Thus, the high-pressure gas carries the water and is output from the water cannon pipe 4, thereby achieving water effects. When the output pipe 211 is connected to the salute cannon pipe 5, the salute cannon pipe 5 contains salute cannon materials, and the high-pressure gas carries the salute cannon materials and is output from the salute cannon pipe 5, thereby achieving salute cannon effects.

[0037] It should be noted that the solenoid valve 22 is normally de-energized. At this time, the output pipe 211 is closed, and the high-pressure gas is stored in the tank 21. The water cannon pipe 4 is connected to a high-pressure connector, which is connected to the water supply source through a water pipe. The water supply source inputs water into the water cannon pipe 4 through the water pipe and the high-pressure connector.

[0038] The function of the pressure relief valve 23 is to prevent the air pressure inside the tank 21 from being too high. When the air pressure inside the tank 21 exceeds the set pressure of the pressure relief valve 23, the pressure relief valve 23 will automatically open to release pressure, which has high safety performance. Specifically, the set pressure of the pressure relief valve 23 is set according to the actual application, and this application does not limit it.

[0039] In this embodiment, the water cannon salute machine also includes a control box, which contains a control circuit board and a first control switch. The first control switch and the solenoid valve 22 are electrically connected to the control circuit board. The first control switch controls the on / off power of the solenoid valve 22. This is prior art, and this application will not elaborate further on it.

[0040] Furthermore, the housing contains a water supply pipe, on which an integrated electromagnetic flow control valve 8 is installed. One end of the water supply pipe is connected to a water source, and the other end is connected to a water cannon pipe 4 via a pipe. Specifically, when the water cannon pipe 4 is used to achieve water effects, it is connected to the output pipe 211, and then connected to the water supply pipe via a pipe. The integrated electromagnetic flow control valve 8 is electrically connected to the control circuit board. The control box contains a second control switch, which is also electrically connected to the control circuit board. The second control switch outputs a switching signal to enable the control circuit board to control the integrated electromagnetic flow control valve 8. The opening and closing of the valve and the degree of opening are existing technologies, and this application will not elaborate on them further. In addition, the electromagnetic flow control integrated valve 8 has a built-in flow meter. Therefore, when water is supplied to the water cannon pipe 4 through the water supply pipe or pipeline, the electromagnetic flow control integrated valve 8 can monitor the amount of water entering the water cannon pipe 4. Furthermore, the control box is also equipped with a display screen, which is electrically connected to the control circuit board. The display screen can display the monitoring results of the flow meter, so that the staff can understand the amount of water entering the water cannon pipe 4. This eliminates the need for manual detection of the amount of water in the water cannon pipe 4 or detection of whether the water cannon pipe 4 is full, making the operation convenient.

[0041] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
