Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hydrological monitoring, and in particular to a protective box for tongyu (a type of fish). Background Technology

[0002] In the field of hydrological monitoring, hydrological cableways are important facilities for operations such as water flow velocity measurement and water level measurement. As a key component on the hydrological cableway used to clamp and fix monitoring instruments or cables, the stable operation of the clamp directly affects the accuracy of monitoring data and the safety of operations. Currently, traditional hydrological cableway clamps lack specialized protective structures, posing numerous problems in complex field environments. During operation, the clamps frequently come into contact with cables and monitoring instruments, requiring opening and closing movements. Prolonged exposure to the elements makes them susceptible to corrosion from wind, sun, and rain, leading to component rust and aging, affecting their clamping accuracy and lifespan. Furthermore, hydrological monitoring areas are often located around rivers, lakes, and other bodies of water, where sediment and debris can easily enter the clamps' opening and closing gaps, causing jamming and hindering their movement. This can even result in monitoring instruments falling off, cables breaking, and other malfunctions, impacting operational progress.

[0003] During the transportation and storage of hydrographic cableways, the lack of suitable protective devices leads to collisions and friction between the cableways and with other equipment, causing surface wear and structural deformation, thus reducing their performance. Furthermore, the sizes of the cableways vary depending on the model, and traditional storage and protection structures cannot be flexibly adapted, resulting in poor versatility and inconvenience for management and use. Utility Model Content

[0004] This application provides a protective enclosure for mantis shrimps, solving the problem in the prior art where, during the transportation and storage of mantis shrimps, the lack of suitable protective devices leads to collisions and friction between mantis shrimps or with other equipment, causing surface wear and structural deformation, thus reducing their performance. Furthermore, the sizes of mantis shrimps vary between different models of hydrographic cableways, and traditional storage and protective structures cannot flexibly adapt to these differences, resulting in poor versatility and inconvenience for management and use.

[0005] The technical solutions adopted in the embodiments of this application are as follows.

[0006] A protective enclosure for a plierfish includes an enclosure, a baffle protecting the interior of the enclosure, an elastic element for repositioning the baffle, a hanging ring on the baffle, and a suspension rope for closing or opening the baffle. The enclosure has an open top. The hanging ring is located on the baffle and is arranged in several groups. One end of the elastic element corresponds to the baffle, and the other end corresponds to the interior of the enclosure. The two ends of the suspension rope correspond to the hanging rings on the baffles on both sides. When the plierfish falls onto the suspension rope, the suspension rope causes the baffles on both sides to gradually close the top of the enclosure, at which point the elastic element is compressed.

[0007] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: The suspension ropes are arranged in two sets opposite each other and are detachably connected to the lifting ring. The distance between the two sets of suspension ropes can be adjusted to accommodate pliers of different lengths.

[0008] The elastic element is a spring or a reset cylinder.

[0009] A rubber component is provided on the end face of the baffle away from its hinge point; the rubber components on both sides are staggered; when the pliers are hoisted and lowered, the rubber component can deform to facilitate the disassembly or installation of the hoisting rope, and can also seal the top.

[0010] One or more technical solutions provided in the embodiments of this application have at least the following technical effects or advantages: 1. The enclosure, with its sealed design and closable baffles, effectively blocks wind, sun, and rain from the outdoor environment, preventing corrosion and aging of the clamp components. The staggered rubber parts at the baffle ends seal the top gap when closed, preventing mud, sand, and debris from entering the clamp's opening and closing parts. This solves the problem of traditional clamps malfunctioning due to jamming, ensuring the continuity of monitoring operations. Furthermore, during transportation and storage, the enclosure isolates the clamp from the outside environment, preventing surface wear and structural deformation caused by collisions and friction, significantly extending its service life. 2. By adjusting the connection positions of the two sets of lifting ropes on different lifting rings, the rope spacing can be changed to accommodate different lengths of tongs, eliminating the need for separate protective devices for each model. This design breaks through the size limitations of traditional protective structures, reduces equipment management costs, and is particularly suitable for the batch storage and transportation needs of multiple tongs models. 3. When the grappling hook is lowered, its own weight pulls the hoisting rope, causing the side baffles to close automatically, and the elastic components (springs or return cylinders) to compress and store force. When removed, the elastic components return to their original position, pushing the baffles open, eliminating the need for manual operation and simplifying the loading and unloading process. The deformation characteristics of the rubber components facilitate the disassembly and installation of the hoisting ropes, while also enhancing the sealing effect, thus balancing ease of operation with reliable protection.

[0014] This application provides a protective enclosure for mantis shrimps, solving the problem in the prior art where, during the transportation and storage of mantis shrimps, the lack of suitable protective devices leads to collisions and friction between mantis shrimps or with other equipment, causing surface wear and structural deformation, thus reducing their performance. Furthermore, the sizes of mantis shrimps vary between different models of hydrographic cableways, and traditional storage and protective structures cannot flexibly adapt to these differences, resulting in poor versatility and inconvenience for management and use.

[0015] The technical solution in this application embodiment is to solve the above problems, and the overall idea is as follows: To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0016] A protective enclosure for a plier fish includes an enclosure 1, a baffle 2 that shields the interior of the enclosure 1, an elastic element 3 that resets the position of the baffle 2, a hanging ring 4 mounted on the baffle 2, and a hanging rope 5 that drives the baffle 2 to close or open. The enclosure 1 has an open top. The hanging ring 4 is mounted on the baffle 2 and is arranged in several groups. One end of the elastic element 3 corresponds to the baffle 2, and the other end of the elastic element 3 corresponds to the interior of the enclosure 1. The two ends of the hanging rope 5 correspond to the hanging rings 4 on the two side baffles 2 respectively. When the plier fish falls onto the hanging rope 5, the hanging rope 5 drives the two side baffles 2 to gradually close the top of the enclosure 1, at which time the elastic element 3 is compressed.

[0017] Two sets of suspension ropes 5 are arranged opposite each other and are detachably connected to the lifting ring 4. The distance between the two sets of suspension ropes 5 can be adjusted to accommodate pliers of different lengths.

[0018] The elastic element 3 is a spring or a reset cylinder.

[0019] A rubber component 6 is provided on the end face of the baffle 2 away from its hinge point; the two rubber components 6 are staggered from each other; when the pliers are hoisted and lowered, the rubber component 6 can deform to facilitate the disassembly or installation of the hoisting rope, and can also seal the top.

[0020] The enclosure 1 and the closable baffle 2 form a sealed space, effectively blocking wind, sun, and rain from the outdoor environment, preventing corrosion and aging of the clamping fish components. The rubber parts 6 at the ends of the baffle 2 are staggered, sealing the top gap when closed to prevent mud, sand, and debris from entering the opening and closing parts of the clamping fish, solving the problem of malfunction caused by jamming in traditional clamping fish and ensuring the continuity of monitoring operations. Simultaneously, during transportation and storage, the enclosure 1 isolates the clamping fish from the outside environment, preventing surface wear and structural deformation caused by collisions and friction, significantly extending its service life. By adjusting the connection positions of the two sets of lifting ropes 5 on different lifting rings 4, the spacing of the ropes 5 can be changed to accommodate clamping fish of different lengths, eliminating the need for separate protective devices for each model. This design breaks through the size limitations of traditional protective structures, reduces equipment management costs, and is particularly suitable for the batch storage and transportation needs of multiple models of clamping fish. When the grappling hook is lowered, its own weight pulls the hoisting rope 5, causing the side baffles 2 to close automatically, and the elastic element 3 (spring or return cylinder) to compress and store force. When removing it, the elastic element 3 returns to its original position, pushing the baffles 2 open, eliminating the need for manual operation and simplifying the loading and unloading process. The deformation characteristics of the rubber part 6 facilitate the disassembly and installation of the hoisting rope, while also enhancing the sealing effect, thus balancing ease of operation and reliable protection.
