Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of multifunctional buoy technology, specifically to an expandable sensor mounting platform for multifunctional buoys. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of aquatic environment monitoring, buoys, as the core carriers for carrying sensors, have their sensor installation platforms whose performance directly affects the accuracy of monitoring data and the applicability of the equipment.

[0003] Chinese patent CN220054076U discloses a multifunctional buoy, including a float base. A workbench is fixedly connected to the top of the float base, and a monitoring instrument is mounted on the top of the workbench. A counterweight mechanism is fixedly connected to the bottom of the float base, and an anti-collision mechanism is installed inside the float base. This device, through the arrangement of a float block, spring, limiting rod, threaded rod, and limiting tube, can provide anti-collision protection for the buoy during use. When the buoy impacts an object, the limiting rod slides inward into the limiting tube, generating damping. Combined with the spring, this reduces damage to the float block. The anti-collision components can be stored during handling or transportation through the action of a drive gear, driven gear, winding roller, wire rope, and rectangular rod, greatly reducing its space occupation and thus lowering transportation costs while facilitating handling. However, the following drawbacks still exist:

[0004] The working platform is a fixed structure, and the installation position and depth of the sensors are difficult to adjust. If it is necessary to replace different types or sizes of sensors, it is often necessary to modify the entire platform or even replace the main body of the buoy, which is inconvenient to use.

[0027] Example

[0028] This embodiment provides a scalable sensor mounting platform for a multifunctional buoy, such as... Figures 1-4 As shown, it includes: a buoy platform 100, which is a hollow column. A mounting mechanism 200 is provided on the surface of the buoy platform 100, and a solar panel 300 is installed on the mounting mechanism 200. The mounting mechanism 200 includes a mounting platform 210 located in the hollow part of the buoy platform 100. A locking cover 220 is threadedly connected to the top of the mounting platform 210. The solar panel 300 is fixedly connected to the top of the locking cover 220. A mounting rod 240 is fixedly connected to the center of the interior of the mounting platform 210. A mounting seat 250 is slidably connected to the mounting rod 240. The surface of the mounting seat 250 has mounting holes of different diameters. Adjusting nuts 260 are threadedly connected to the upper and lower sides of the mounting seat 250 on the surface of the mounting rod 240. A filter cover 230 is provided at the lower part of the surface of the mounting platform 210.

[0029] An expandable sensor mounting platform for a multifunctional buoy employing the above technical solution includes a mounting rod 240, a mounting base 250, and an adjusting nut 260. The mounting base 250 can slide along the mounting rod 240 and is fixed by the adjusting nut 260, enabling flexible adjustment of the sensor installation depth and solving the problem of fixed sensor positions and difficulty in adapting to different monitoring depth requirements in traditional mounting platforms. Simultaneously, the mounting holes on the surface of the mounting base 250 are compatible with sensor bolts of different diameters, improving adaptability.

[0030] The system is equipped with support frames 270 and floats 280. Multiple support frames 270 are evenly distributed on the surface of the mounting platform 210. Together with the additional buoyancy provided by the floats 280, it can balance the center of gravity shift caused by the mounting of multiple sensors, prevent the buoy from tilting, ensure the stability of the sensor's measurement posture, and solve the problem of traditional buoys tilting easily due to insufficient buoyancy.

[0031] To prevent impurities in the water from clogging the sensor and to enhance the equipment's corrosion resistance, the filter cover 230 has water-permeable holes that penetrate the mounting platform 210, and an anti-corrosion layer is applied to the surface of the filter cover 230. Water can flow through the water-permeable holes and come into contact with the sensor, while simultaneously intercepting large particles such as silt and algae. The epoxy resin coating on the surface of the filter cover 230 can resist chemical corrosion in both freshwater and seawater environments, extending the service life of the filter cover 230.

[0032] To further enhance the overall stability and buoyancy reserve of the buoy, multiple support frames 270 are evenly distributed on the surface of the installation platform 210, with a float 280 fixedly connected to one side of each support frame 270. The support frames 270 are made of stainless steel to enhance load-bearing capacity, while the floats 280 are hollow and sealed structures made of high-density polyethylene.

[0033] To optimize filtration and facilitate the installation and removal of the platform, the diameter of the filter cover 230 is larger than that of the installation platform 210, and the installation platform 210 is fitted with the buoy platform 100 with a clearance. This ensures that the installation platform 210 can be smoothly inserted into the buoy platform 100 while avoiding excessive shaking that could affect stability.

[0034] In order to achieve a seal between the buoy platform 100 and the installation platform 210 and prevent impurities from entering, a sealing ring is fitted on the surface of the installation platform 210, and the sealing ring is positioned between the buoy platform 100 and the locking cover 220.

[0035] To enhance the structural strength and durability of the buoy platform 100, the buoy platform 100 is constructed using a high-density polyethylene platform. Reinforcing ribs are provided on the inner wall of the buoy platform 100, and these ribs are evenly distributed along the axial direction of the buoy platform 100. The cross-section of the reinforcing ribs is an isosceles triangle, which improves their resistance to bending.

[0036] To improve water permeability and avoid damage from water flow impact, the water permeable holes of the filter cover 230 are distributed in a honeycomb pattern, and the edges of the filter cover 230 are rounded. This ensures both water flow rate and filtration effect; the rounded corners reduce local turbulence during water flow impact, thus reducing the impact force on the mounting platform 210.

[0037] In summary, the expandable sensor mounting platform for a multifunctional buoy provided in this embodiment has the following advantages: It is equipped with a mounting rod 240, a mounting base 250, and an adjusting nut 260. The mounting base 250 can slide along the mounting rod 240 and be fixed by the adjusting nut 260, enabling flexible adjustment of the sensor installation depth and solving the problem of fixed sensor positions and difficulty in adapting to different monitoring depth requirements in traditional mounting platforms. Simultaneously, the mounting holes on the surface of the mounting base 250 are compatible with sensor bolts of different diameters, improving adaptability.

[0038] The system is equipped with support frames 270 and floats 280. Multiple support frames 270 are evenly distributed on the surface of the mounting platform 210. Together with the additional buoyancy provided by the floats 280, it can balance the center of gravity shift caused by the mounting of multiple sensors, prevent the buoy from tilting, ensure the stability of the sensor's measurement posture, and solve the problem of traditional buoys tilting easily due to insufficient buoyancy.

[0039] In use, first select the appropriate sensor according to the monitoring requirements, and fix the sensor through the mounting holes of the mounting base 250. After the mounting base 250 reaches the target depth, tighten the upper and lower adjusting nuts 260 to complete the fixation. Insert the mounting platform 210 into the buoy platform 100, and tighten the locking cover 220 to seal the sealing ring. The float 280 and filter cover 230 work together to ensure overall stability, and the solar panel 300 provides power to the equipment, which can then start the monitoring operation. If the sensor needs to be replaced, simply loosen the adjusting nut 260, remove the old equipment, and repeat the above steps to complete the replacement. The operation is convenient and efficient.

[0040] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the implementation methods and protection scope of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art should realize that any equivalent substitutions and obvious changes made based on the description and illustrations of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
