Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of marine equipment technology, specifically a marine sleeping capsule. Background Technology

[0002] When a ship is sailing, it will experience multiple degrees of freedom of turbulence such as rolling, pitching, and heaving due to wind and waves. Traditional fixed beds sway synchronously with the hull, which can easily lead to accidental injuries such as bumping into things or falling out of bed while the crew is sleeping. At the same time, the long-term closed and monotonous marine environment can easily cause psychological problems such as anxiety, insomnia, and depression, which can affect the crew's physical and mental health and work efficiency.

[0003] Existing marine anti-sway beds mostly adopt passive shock absorption or simple mechanical balancing, which have limited anti-turbulence effect and lack psychological comfort design for sea navigation. Some active balancing solutions are complex in structure, costly, and difficult to maintain, making it difficult to apply them on a large scale on ships.

[0004] In addition, ships sail at sea for long periods of time, and the air outside the cabin contains a large amount of pollutants such as salt spray and odors. Crew members breathe in the closed sleeping cabin for a long time, so the requirements for air quality are high. The existing fresh air system of marine sleeping cabins usually only has a single set of purification components. When the purification components fail or the air quality deteriorates, there is a lack of effective emergency purification measures, which affects the health and sleep experience of the crew. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides a marine sleep chamber that solves the problem that a single purification unit cannot handle emergency situations.

[0006] A marine sleeping capsule includes a hull, with a fresh air assembly installed on the outside of the hull to supply purified air into the hull. The fresh air assembly includes: Two sets of purification components, one main and one auxiliary, both include purification boxes and purification components. They are different in size but have the same components. During normal purification, the air is purified by passing through the purification box and purification components of the main purification component. If the air quality does not meet the standards after purification, the air is purified by passing through the purification box and purification components of the auxiliary purification component as a temporary emergency plan. The three-way ball has an inlet at the top and a secondary outlet and a main outlet at the bottom, and the three are connected. Air enters the inlet through the circulation pump and flows from the main outlet to the purification chamber of the main purification component. When the air quality after purification does not meet the standard, the three-way ball deflects 90° and the air flows from the secondary outlet to the purification chamber of the secondary purification component.

[0007] Furthermore, the fresh air assembly also includes a housing, which is fixedly installed on the outside of the cabin. A circulation pump is installed on the inside of the housing, and a T-pipe is fixedly installed at the air outlet of the circulation pump. A main pipe and a secondary pipe are fixedly installed on the outside of the T-pipe. The two are respectively connected to the purification boxes and purification components of the main and secondary purification assemblies. The bottom of the main pipe and the secondary pipe are merged and connected before extending downward.

[0008] Furthermore, a salt spray online monitor and an odor online monitor are fixedly installed on the outside of the main pipe and the extension pipe of the secondary pipe to detect the quality of the purified air. A three-way ball is rotatably installed inside the three-way pipe, and a mode switching motor output shaft is rotatably installed at the bottom of the three-way ball. The mode switching motor is fixedly installed inside the housing, and the salt spray online monitor, the odor online monitor and the mode switching motor are electrically connected to the mode switching motor.

[0009] Furthermore, the purification box and purification components are plugged in and connected. A fixing hole is provided on the outside of the purification component, and a fixing post is slidably installed on the inside of the housing. The end of the fixing post is plugged in and connected to the fixing hole. A fixing spring is fixedly installed between the fixing post and the housing.

[0010] Furthermore, two permanent magnets are symmetrically fixedly installed on the outer side of the output shaft of the mode switching motor to attract the fixing column and move the fixing column out of the fixing hole.

[0011] Furthermore, the bottom of the cabin is provided with an active balancing bed to reduce swaying, and an installation base is fixedly installed between the bottom of the active balancing bed and the hull.

[0012] Furthermore, a hatch is installed on the outside of the cabin, a clear sky simulation light is installed on the top inside the cabin, and an air outlet is fixedly installed on the top of the cabin.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The marine sleeping cabin described in this utility model is equipped with two sets of purification components of different sizes and a three-way ball switching mechanism. When the purification box of the main purification component fails, it can quickly switch to the purification box of the secondary purification component for emergency purification to ensure the air quality inside the cabin. It can also achieve automatic switching with the salt spray online monitor and the odor online monitor. The purification components are connected by fixing columns and fixing holes, which is convenient for disassembly and assembly, and easy for maintenance and replacement. Active balancing counteracts ship turbulence, while clear-sky simulation lights alleviate loneliness and anxiety in the confined environment at sea and improve sleep quality.

[0017] To more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model or the prior art, the present utility model will be briefly introduced below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and descriptions of the embodiments or the prior art. Obviously, the following description of the structure of the accompanying drawings is only some embodiments of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative effort. It should be noted that the description of these embodiments is used to help understand this utility model, but does not constitute a limitation on this utility model.

[0018] Example 1: like Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a marine sleeping cabin, including a cabin body 1, with a fresh air assembly 5 disposed on the outside of the cabin body 1 to introduce purified air into the cabin body 1. The fresh air assembly 5 includes: For ease of understanding, the two purification components are divided into a main one and a secondary one. Both include a purification box 55 and a purification component 56. They are different in size but have the same components. During normal purification, the air passes through the purification box 55 and purification component 56 of the main purification component for purification. If the air quality does not meet the standards after purification, the purification effect will weaken if the air is used for a long time. The air then passes through the purification box 55 and purification component 56 of the secondary purification component for purification as a temporary emergency solution. The three-way ball 511 has an inlet 512 at the top and a secondary outlet 513 and a main outlet 514 at the bottom, and the three are connected. The central axes of the secondary outlet 513 and the main outlet 514 are perpendicular and located on the same horizontal plane. Air enters the inlet 512 through a circulation pump and flows from the main outlet 514 to the purification box 55 of the main purification component. If the purified air quality does not meet the standards, such as... Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the three-way ball 511 deflects 90° to the left, and air flows from the secondary outlet 513 to the purification box 55 of the secondary purification component.

[0019] Preferably, the fresh air assembly 5 further includes a housing 51, which is fixedly installed on the outside of the chamber 1. A circulation pump is installed inside the housing 51, and a three-way pipe 53 is fixedly installed at the outlet of the circulation pump. A main pipe 54 and a secondary pipe 58 are fixedly installed on the outside of the three-way pipe 53. The two are respectively connected to the purification box 55 and the purification component 56 of the main and secondary purification assemblies. The main pipe 54 and the secondary pipe 58 are connected at the bottom and extend downward.

[0020] Preferably, a salt spray online monitor 59 and an odor online monitor 510 are fixedly installed on the outer side of the extension pipes of the main pipe 54 and the secondary pipe 58, for real-time detection of the salt spray and odor content in the purified air. A three-way ball 511 is rotatably installed inside the three-way pipe 53, and the output shaft of the mode switching motor 515 is rotatably installed at the bottom of the three-way ball 511. The mode switching motor 515 is fixedly installed inside the housing 51, and the salt spray online monitor 59 and the odor online monitor 510 are electrically connected to the mode switching motor 515.

[0021] In this embodiment, under normal purification conditions, air enters the inlet 512 via a circulation pump, flows from the main outlet 514 through the main pipe 54 into the purification box 55 of the main purification component, and is purified by the purification component 56 before being input into the cabin 1.

[0022] When the salt spray online monitor 59 or the odor online monitor 510 detects that the air quality after purification does not meet the standards, it sends a signal to drive the mode switching motor 515 to rotate, which drives the three-way ball 511 to deflect 90°, so that the air flows from the secondary outlet 513 through the secondary pipe 58 into the purification box 55 of the secondary purification component for emergency purification.

[0023] Preferably, the purification box 55 and the purification component 56 are plugged into each other. The purification component 56 has a fixing hole 57 on its outer side. A fixing post 517 is slidably installed on the inner side of the housing 51. The end of the fixing post 517 is plugged into the fixing hole 57 to lock the purification component 56. A fixing spring 518 is fixedly installed between the fixing post 517 and the housing 51.

[0024] Preferably, two permanent magnets 516 are symmetrically fixedly installed on the outer side of the output shaft of the mode switching motor 515 to attract the fixing column 517 and move the fixing column 517 out of the fixing hole 57.

[0025] In this embodiment, when the purification component 56 needs to be replaced, the mode switching motor 515 can be rotated to bring the permanent magnet 516 close to the fixing post 517. The magnetic force is used to attract the fixing post 517, causing it to move outward against the elastic force of the fixing spring 518. The fixing post 517 is attached to the permanent magnet 516, thereby moving the fixing post 517 out of the fixing hole 57, releasing the lock on the purification component 56, and making it convenient to take out the purification component 56 for cleaning or replacement.

[0026] Preferably, the bottom of the cabin 1 is provided with an active balancing bed 7 to reduce swaying, which is used to reduce the impact of ship turbulence on sleep. The bottom of the active balancing bed 7 is fixedly installed with the hull, so as to realize a reliable connection between the sleep cabin and the hull.

[0027] Preferably, a hatch 6 is installed on the outside of the cabin 1 to facilitate crew entry and exit, and a clear sky simulation light 3 is installed on the top of the inside of the cabin 1 to simulate a natural light environment and help regulate the biological clock. An air vent 4 is fixedly installed on the top of the cabin 1 to exhaust exhaust gas and maintain air circulation.

[0028] Example 2: Mounting base 2 adopts a marine high-strength aluminum alloy frame and is rigidly connected to the ship deck through shock absorbers certified by the classification society, which isolates the low-frequency vibration of the hull. The base is equipped with a six-axis attitude sensor to collect real-time data on the ship's roll, pitch, heave, pitch, roll, and heading.

[0029] The active balancing bed 7 is connected to the mounting base 2 via a three-degree-of-freedom electric servo platform, enabling reverse compensation movements in the roll, pitch, and heave directions. The servo platform uses a combination of brushless motor, precision lead screw, and hydraulic damping, with a response time of ≤100ms and a balance accuracy of ±0.5°, which can counteract more than 90% of the ship's turbulence. The bed is equipped with retractable guardrails around its perimeter, which automatically rise during sleep to prevent falls. The bed surface is made of memory foam and breathable antibacterial fabric, and is ergonomically designed.

[0030] The Sky Simulator 3 and RGB Ambient Light can simulate scenes such as sunrise, sunset, and starry sky. The color temperature can be adjusted from 2700K to 6500K and the brightness can be adjusted to regulate the biological clock. It has a built-in smart speaker that can store white noise from ocean waves, soothing music, and natural sound effects. It can also connect via Bluetooth to block out external noise.

[0031] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
