[0001] This utility model relates to the field of marine engineering, and in particular to a foldable transportable light buoy holder. Background Technology

[0002] In many fields such as marine engineering, water traffic management, and water rescue, light buoys play an indispensable role as important water marking equipment. They can provide navigation guidance for vessels, delineate water boundaries, mark dangerous areas, and ensure the safe and orderly conduct of water activities.

[0003] For example, a resilient protective impact-resistant buoy, disclosed in publication number CN220147533U, includes a buoy body and a marker frame mounted on top of the buoy body. The marker frame includes a support frame and an anti-collision frame located on top of the support frame. The anti-collision frame is arranged circumferentially along the support frame. Rubber springs are circumferentially wrapped around the anti-collision frame and the buoy body, and the rubber springs are mounted on the buoy body via elastic brackets. This utility model, by improving the structure of the buoy marker frame and incorporating rubber springs, and simultaneously installing rubber springs around the buoy body, aims to ensure that the buoy body, marker frame, and auxiliary facilities are largely undamaged upon impact. However, because this utility model is a one-piece structure, it is inconvenient to fold the entire assembly, occupies a large space during transportation, and is therefore inconvenient to transport.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to design a foldable light buoy holder that can be easily folded and stored, protects the solar power system, and is easy to transport. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, which have an integral structure that is inconvenient to fold and takes up a lot of space during transportation, this utility model provides a foldable light buoy frame that can be easily folded and stored, while also protecting the solar power supply system and facilitating transportation.

[0006] The technical solution is as follows: A foldable transportable light buoy holder includes a base, a placement frame, guide rods, a sliding frame, a motor, a lead screw, a folding assembly, and an opening and closing assembly. The placement frame is connected inside the base. Guide rods are connected to both the front and rear parts of the placement frame. The sliding frame is slidably connected between the right parts of the guide rods. The motor is connected to the left part of the placement frame. The motor and the processor are electrically connected through a control module. A lead screw is connected to the output shaft of the motor. The lead screw is threadedly connected to the sliding frame and rotatably connected to the placement frame. The sliding frame is equipped with a folding assembly that can be lifted and folded. The folding assembly is equipped with an opening and closing assembly that can be opened and closed for easy storage.

[0007] As a further preferred option, the placement frame has placement slots inside.

[0008] As a further preferred option, the base is made of polyethylene.

[0009] As a further preferred embodiment, the folding assembly includes a folding frame, a lifting plate, sliders, and a light fixture. The folding frame is rotatably connected to the sliding frame and the placement frame. The lifting plate is rotatably connected to the upper left of the folding frame. Two sliders, one in front and one behind, are slidably connected to the right side of the lifting plate. Both sliders are rotatably connected to the folding frame. The light fixture is threadedly connected to the middle of the lifting plate.

[0010] As a further preferred option, the right side of the lifting plate has two sliding grooves, one in the front and one in the back, and the sliders are slidably connected to the lifting plate through the sliding grooves.

[0011] As a further preferred embodiment, an opening and closing assembly is also included. The opening and closing assembly includes a solar power supply system, bevel gears, electric push rods, connectors, and connecting rods. Connecting rods are rotatably provided on all four sides of the lifting plate, front, back, left, and right. Each connecting rod is equipped with a solar power supply system.

An electric push rod is connected to the lower side of the middle part of the lifting plate. The electric push rod and the processor are electrically connected through a control module. Connecting parts are connected to the telescopic ends of the electric push rods. Connecting rods are rotatably connected to the left and right sides of the connecting parts. Each connecting rod is rotatably connected to the solar panel on its adjacent solar power supply system.

[0012] This utility model has the following advantages: The solar panel on the solar power supply system rotates and retracts through the meshing motion of bevel gears. Then, the motor is started, which drives the lead screw to rotate, causing the sliding frame to move. The folding frame retracts and drives the lifting plate to move and retract. At the same time, the solar power supply system is protected by the placement frame, achieving the effect of convenient folding and storage, protection of the solar power supply system, and easy transportation.

[0020] A foldable transportable buoy holder, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, the device includes a base 1, a placement frame 2, guide rods 3, a sliding frame 4, a motor 5, a lead screw 6, a folding assembly, and an opening and closing assembly. The base 1 is made of polyethylene, which has good impact resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, and waterproof performance, as well as excellent buoyancy and durability. The placement frame 2 is connected inside the base 1, and the placement frame 2 has a placement slot inside for easy storage. Guide rods 3 are connected to both the front and rear of the placement frame 2. The sliding frame 4 is slidably connected between the right sides of the guide rods 3. The motor 5 is connected to the left side of the placement frame 2. The motor 5 and the processor are electrically connected through a control module. The lead screw 6 is connected to the output shaft of the motor 5. The lead screw 6 is threadedly connected to the sliding frame 4 and rotatably connected to the placement frame 2. The sliding frame 4 is equipped with a folding assembly, and the folding assembly is equipped with an opening and closing assembly.

[0021] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the folding assembly includes a folding frame 7, a lifting plate 8, a slider 9, and a lamp 10. The folding frame 7 is rotatably connected between the sliding frame 4 and the placement frame 2. The lifting plate 8 is rotatably connected to the upper left of the folding frame 7. The right side of the lifting plate 8 is slidably connected to two sliders 9. The right side of the lifting plate 8 has two sliding grooves, and the sliders 9 are slidably connected to the lifting plate 8 through the sliding grooves. The sliders 9 are rotatably connected to the folding frame 7. The lamp 10 is threadedly connected to the middle of the lifting plate 8.

[0022] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, it also includes an opening and closing assembly, which includes a solar power supply system 11, bevel gears 12, electric push rods 13, connectors 14, and connecting rods 15. The lifting plate 8 is rotatably equipped with connecting rods on all four sides (front, back, left, and right). Each connecting rod is equipped with a solar power supply system 11. Two bevel gears 12 are connected to the upper part of each connecting rod, and two adjacent bevel gears 12 mesh with each other. An electric push rod 13 is connected to the lower side of the middle part of the lifting plate 8. The electric push rod 13 and the processor are electrically connected through a control module.

Each connecting rod 15 is rotatably connected to the solar panel on its adjacent solar power supply system 11.

[0023] When using this utility model, first place the base 1 in the area where the light buoy frame is used. When the light buoy frame needs to be folded for transportation, the electric push rod 13 can be started to drive the connecting piece 14 to move upward, causing the connecting rod 15 to rotate. The connecting rod 15 pulls the solar panels on the left and right solar power supply systems 11 to rotate and retract, driving the connecting rod to rotate, causing the bevel gear 12 to rotate. The bevel gear 12 meshes with each other, driving the solar panels on the front and rear solar power supply systems 11 to rotate and retract. Then, the motor 5 is started to drive the lead screw 6 to rotate, causing the sliding frame 4 to move along the guide rod 3 under the action of the thread, causing the folding frame 7 to fold and retract. This causes the slider 9 to move on the lifting plate 8, causing the lifting plate 8 to move downward and retract into the placement frame 2. At the same time, the placement frame 2 protects the solar power supply system 11, making it easy to fold and store, and also protecting the solar power supply system 11 for easy transportation.

[0024] When the lamp 10 needs to be folded and stored, the lamp 10 can be rotated so that it moves upward and separates from the lifting plate 8, and then the mechanical function of the lamp 10 can be replaced.
