[0033] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0034] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The present invention provides an embodiment of a ship stern tube alignment device, comprising an installation box 1, an alignment box 6, and a protective box 19. The installation box 1 serves as the basic load-bearing structure of the entire device, providing a stable installation platform for each component. An alignment component is installed at the bottom of the installation box 1, a clamping component is installed inside the protective box 19, and an adjustment component is installed inside the alignment box 6.

[0035] The centering assembly includes a motor 3, which provides power for the centering operation. Motor 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting box 1. A rotating rod 4 is fixedly connected to the output end of motor 3, allowing it to rotate under the drive of motor 3. Connecting rods 5 are rotatably connected to both ends of the rotating rod 4. One end of each connecting rod 5 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the centering box 6. When motor 3 starts, the rotating rod 4 rotates, pulling the centering box 6 towards the center through the connecting rods 5 at both ends. This allows the centering box 6 to slide smoothly inside the mounting box 1 until the components are aligned, completing a crucial step in the centering operation. Slider 7 is fixedly connected to both ends of the two centering boxes 6, allowing them to slide slidably inside the mounting box 1. The slider 7 ensures smoother and more stable sliding of the centering box 6 inside the mounting box 1, reducing frictional resistance during sliding. It also effectively limits and guides the sliding trajectory of the centering box 6, ensuring it slides in the preset direction and guaranteeing the stability and accuracy of the centering operation.

[0036] The adjustment assembly includes an electric push rod 11, which serves as the power source for the adjustment action. The electric push rod 11 is installed inside the alignment box 6. A rack 10 is fixedly connected to the movable end of the electric push rod 11. When the electric push rod 11 extends or retracts, it pushes the rack 10 to slide forward or backward. A gear 9 is rotatably connected inside the alignment box 6, meshing with the rack 10. A rotating plate 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the gear 9. When the rack 10 slides, it drives the gear 9 to rotate. The rotation of the gear 9 drives the rotating plate 8 to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the rotating plate 8, in turn, drives related components to adjust their angles, ensuring the accuracy of the alignment operation.

[0037] Reference Figures 1-3The clamping assembly includes a second motor 17, which provides driving force for the clamping action. The second motor 17 is fixedly connected inside the protective box 19. The output end of the second motor 17 is fixedly connected to a first gear 16. A circular plate 13 is provided inside the protective box 19. A gear ring 15 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the circular plate 13. The first gear 16 and the gear ring 15 mesh with each other. When the first gear 16 rotates, it can drive the circular plate 13 to rotate through the meshing transmission with the gear ring 15. Multiple sliding grooves 14 are provided inside the circular plate 13. The sliding grooves 14 provide a guiding function for the sliding of the slide rod 18, ensuring that the slide rod 18 can move along a preset trajectory. The slide rod 18 is slidably connected inside each of the multiple sliding grooves 14. 8. A slide bar 20 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the slide bar 18. The sliding of the slide bar 18 will drive the slide bar 20 to move synchronously, thereby realizing the clamping action of the component. Multiple fixing boxes 22 are fixedly connected inside the outer shell 12. The slide bar 20 is slidably connected inside the fixing box 22. A clamping wheel 21 is fixedly connected to one end of the slide bar 20. The clamping wheel 21 directly contacts the stern tube of the ship and related connecting components. Under the drive of the slide bar 20, multiple clamping wheels 21 clamp the component from different directions. This multi-directional clamping method greatly enhances the clamping firmness and avoids the component from loosening or displacement during subsequent alignment and adjustment, providing a solid guarantee for the smooth progress of the alignment operation.

[0038] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 The bottom of the mounting box 1 is fixedly connected to the protective box 2. The motor 3 is installed inside the protective box 2. The protective box 2 provides an independent protective space for the motor 3, which can effectively block external dust, moisture and collisions from damaging the motor 3, extend the service life of the motor 3 and ensure its stable and reliable operation. The top of the rotating plate 8 is fixedly connected to the base 23, and the top of the base 23 is fixedly connected to the outer shell 12. The outer shell 12 not only protects the internal components, but also provides a mounting support structure for the clamping components, making the structure of the entire device more compact and reasonable.

[0039] Working principle: First, the shaft tube to be aligned is placed inside the circular plate 13. The motor 17 is started, and the gear 16 drives the gear ring 15. The slide bar 18 moves to the center through the slide groove 14. At this time, the slide bar 20 and the clamping wheel 21 are aligned and clamp the shaft tube. The clamping components on both sides can clamp different devices at the same time. For example, when aligning the shaft tube and the main unit, the connection end of the shaft tube and the main unit can be clamped at the same time. This clamping method can be more secure.

[0040] Secondly, after clamping, start motor 3 and rotate the rotating rod 4. Pull the connecting rod 5 from both sides towards the middle, so that the centering box 6 can slide inside the mounting box 1 until the two are aligned. Then, when the position needs to be adjusted, start the electric push rod 11 and push the rack 10 to slide forward. At this time, the gear 9 rotates, causing the rotating plate 8 to rotate in conjunction. At this time, the base 23 rotates, and the clamping device at both ends can be adjusted slightly to make the centering more accurate and reduce errors.

[0041] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
