[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the embodiments of this utility model adopt the following technical solutions:
[0006] A modular navigation light housing structure, comprising:
[0007] The main body of the navigation light is located at the center of the top of the base plate;
[0008] The base is connected to the upper surface of the base plate. The base has a rectangular structure and surrounds the outer perimeter of the beacon light body.
[0009] Support rods are arranged in an array at the four corners of the base. The lower ends of multiple support rods are inserted into the base. Each support rod has an L-shaped structure. T-shaped grooves are opened at both ends of the support rods. Multiple first telescopic springs are provided on the inner sidewall of the T-shaped grooves and on the side close to the main body of the navigation light. A pad is provided at the other end of the multiple first telescopic springs. Slots are opened at the upper ends of the multiple support rods.
[0010] A baffle is located between the two support rods. T-shaped sliders are provided at both ends of the baffle. The two T-shaped sliders slide in the T-shaped groove. One side of the T-shaped slider contacts the pad, and the other side of the T-shaped slider contacts the side wall of the T-shaped groove.
[0011] A cover plate, the lower surface of which is provided with a plug rod connected to a plurality of slots, the cover plate, the plurality of support rods, the plurality of baffles and the base plate surround each other to form a cavity for receiving the main body of the navigation light;
[0012] The locking assembly is connected to the upper surface of the base plate and passes through the base to engage with the support rod.
[0013] Furthermore, the base includes:
[0014] The first enclosure plate is connected to the upper surface of the base plate and is rectangularly distributed around the periphery of the beacon light body;
[0015] The second enclosure is connected to the upper surface of the base plate and is rectangularly distributed around the periphery of the first enclosure. A placement cavity is formed between the first enclosure, the second enclosure, and the base plate. The bottom ends of the plurality of support rods and the plurality of baffles are inserted into the placement cavity.
[0016] Furthermore, a rubber sealing plate is provided inside the placement cavity, the lower surface of the rubber sealing plate is in contact with the lower surface of the placement cavity, and the upper surface of the rubber sealing plate is in contact with the lower end faces of the multiple support rods and the multiple baffles.
[0017] Furthermore, the card locking assembly includes:
[0018] A fixing block is provided at the four corners of the second enclosure and is connected to the upper surface of the base plate. The fixing block is provided with a sliding hole.
[0019] A conical clamping plate is slidably installed in the sliding hole. A slot is provided on the side of the support rod.

[0024] Beneficial effects: The base plate, base, support rod, baffle, and cover plate of this utility model are modularly connected through T-shaped sliders, T-slots, insert rods, slots, and locking components, eliminating the need for welding or multiple sets of bolts for fastening. During maintenance, simply pulling the pull plate to unlock the locking components and removing the baffle exposes the main body of the navigation light, without disassembling the entire outer shell, significantly reducing maintenance difficulty and improving maintenance efficiency. A first telescopic spring and a pad are installed in the T-slot of the support rod. When the baffle is impacted by wind, waves, or floating debris, the first telescopic spring absorbs the impact through deformation, and the pad prevents rigid contact between the T-shaped slider and the T-slot, effectively protecting the baffle and the internal navigation light body. Simultaneously, the L-shaped support rod has high structural strength, forming a stable outer support frame to further resist external damage. The baffle and support rod are pressed together by the T-shaped slider and spring pressure, forming a sealed cavity that effectively prevents rainwater, seawater mist, and dust from seeping in, avoiding corrosion of the navigation light's electronic components and extending its service life.

[0035] according to Figures 1-5As shown, this utility model discloses a modular navigation light housing structure, including a base plate 1, a base 3, support rods 4, a baffle 8, a cover plate 10, and a locking assembly 12. The navigation light body 2 is located at the center of the upper part of the base plate 1. The base 3 is connected to the upper surface of the base plate 1. The base 3 has a rectangular structure and surrounds the outer perimeter of the navigation light body 2, providing a mounting base for the support rods 4 and the baffle 8. The support rods 4 are arranged in an array at the four corners of the base 3. There are four support rods 4 in total. The lower ends of the multiple support rods 4 are inserted into the base 3. The support rods 4 have an L-shaped structure, with the horizontal section extending towards the navigation light body 2. T-slots 5 are opened at both ends of the support rods 4. Multiple first telescopic springs 6 are provided on the inner sidewall of the T-slots 5 and the side closest to the navigation light body 2. A pad 7 is provided at the other end of the multiple first telescopic springs 6. The pad 7 is parallel to the inner sidewall of the T-slot. Slots are opened at the upper ends of the multiple support rods 4. The baffle 8 is located between the two support rods 4. There are four baffles 8, which correspond to the four sides of the rectangular base 3. T-shaped sliders 9 are provided at both ends of the baffle 8. The two T-shaped sliders 9 slide in the T-shaped groove 5. One side of the T-shaped slider 9 is in contact with the pad 7, and the other side of the T-shaped slider 9 is in contact with the side wall of the T-shaped groove 5. One side of the T-shaped slider 9 is in close contact with the pad 7, and the other side of the T-shaped slider 9 is in contact with the outer side wall of the T-shaped groove on the side away from the main body of the navigation light 2. The first telescopic spring 6 applies continuous pressure to the T-shaped slider through the pad 7 to ensure that the baffle 8 is tightly connected to the support rod 4. The lower surface of the cover plate 10 is provided with insert rods that connect to multiple slots. The cover plate 10, multiple support rods 4, multiple baffles 8, and the base plate 1 surround each other to form a cavity 11 for housing the main body 2 of the navigation light. When the cover plate 10 is installed, the insert rods are inserted into the corresponding slots. At this time, the cover plate 10, the four support rods 4, the four baffles 8, and the base plate 1 together form a sealed cavity 11, in which the main body 2 of the navigation light is neatly housed, achieving all-round protection. The locking assembly 12 is connected to the upper surface of the base plate 1 and passes through the base 3 to engage with the support rods 4, thereby stably fixing the support rods 4 in the placement cavity 15 and preventing the support rods 4 from moving upward or laterally.
[0036] In this embodiment, the base plate 1, base 3, support rod 4, baffle 8, and cover plate 10 of this utility model are modularly connected through T-shaped sliders, T-shaped grooves 5, insert rods, slots, and locking components 12, eliminating the need for welding or multiple sets of bolts for fastening. During maintenance, only the pull plate 21 needs to be pulled to unlock the locking components 12 and the baffle 8 needs to be pulled out to expose the main body 2 of the navigation light, without having to disassemble the entire outer shell, greatly reducing maintenance difficulty and improving maintenance efficiency. The support rod 4 has a first telescopic spring 6 and a pad 7 installed in the T-shaped groove. When the baffle 8 is impacted by wind, waves, or floating objects, the first telescopic spring 6 can absorb the impact force through deformation, and the pad 7 prevents the T-shaped slider 9 from rigidly contacting the T-shaped groove 5, effectively protecting the baffle 8 and the internal navigation light main body 2. At the same time, the L-shaped support rod 4 has high structural strength and can form a stable outer support frame, further resisting external damage. The baffle 8 and the support rod 4 are joined together by a T-shaped slider and spring pressure to form a sealed cavity 11, which can effectively block rainwater, seawater mist and dust from seeping in, prevent corrosion of the navigation light's electronic components and extend its service life.
[0037] Combination Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment of the present invention, the base 3 includes a first surrounding plate 13 and a second surrounding plate 14. The first surrounding plate 13 is connected to the upper surface of the base plate 1 and is rectangularly distributed around the periphery of the beacon light body 2. Its inner side length is slightly larger than the periphery of the beacon light body 2 to avoid direct contact between the beacon light body 2 and the first surrounding plate 13 and to prevent vibration and friction damage. The second surrounding plate 14 is connected to the upper surface of the base plate 1 and is rectangularly distributed around the periphery of the first surrounding plate 13. A placement cavity 15 is formed between the first surrounding plate 13, the second surrounding plate 14 and the base plate 1. The bottom ends of multiple support rods 4 and multiple baffles 8 are inserted into the placement cavity 15. The placement cavity 15 is used to accommodate the bottom ends of the support rods 4 and the baffles 8, realizing the initial positioning of the support rods 4 and the baffles 8.
