Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of buffer device technology, specifically to a shock-absorbing optimized structure for a buffer device that facilitates pilots' return to the pilot boat. Background Technology
[0002] A pilot, also known as a "water pilot" or "port pilot," is a qualified professional who, under the direction of a pilotage agency, guides a vessel through navigation, berthing, unberthing, shifting, and anchoring. Pilots are responsible for guiding vessels safely through a designated navigation area, ensuring their safe passage to and from docks, locks, and other restricted waterways. Their main rights include: the right to refuse pilotage when a correct decision cannot be implemented or when natural conditions are deemed unsafe; the right to decide to use tugboats to assist in maneuvering the vessel; and the right to demand that the vessel proceed to the nearest port when forced to leave port due to force majeure.
[0003] Traditionally, when pilots descend from large ships, they typically use a rope ladder to get onto the pilot boat. However, if the rope ladder is too long, there is a risk of getting caught on the pilot boat, which is not safe enough. Alternatively, if the rope ladder is too short and there is a certain height between the ladder and the pilot boat, it is difficult for the pilot to get down. In such cases, a device is needed to catch the pilot descending from the rope ladder from the top of the pilot boat. To address this, we propose a shock-absorbing optimized structure for a buffer device that facilitates the pilot's return to the pilot boat. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a shock-absorbing optimized structure for a buffer device that facilitates pilots' return to the pilot boat, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A shock-absorbing optimized structure for a buffer device to facilitate pilot return to the pilot boat includes a base, a first supporting soft pad, a second supporting soft pad, a spring, a telescopic rod, a lifting platform, an electric push rod, a push rod, a worktable, and a protective plate. The first supporting soft pad is fixedly installed on the top of the base, the second supporting soft pad is fixedly installed on the top of the base, the spring is fixedly installed on the top of the base, the telescopic rod is fixedly installed on the top of the base and is located inside the spring, the lifting platform is fixedly installed on the top of the telescopic rod, the lifting platform is fixedly installed on the top of the spring, electric push rods are fixedly installed at the four corners of the top of the lifting platform, push rods are movably installed on the top of the electric push rods, the worktable is fixedly installed on the top of the push rods, and protective plates are fixedly installed at both ends of the top of the worktable.
[0006] Preferably, the protective plate has an installation opening on one side, and a transparent acrylic plate is fixedly installed inside the installation opening.
[0007] By using the above solution and installing a transparent acrylic panel, workers can increase their field of vision when standing on top of the workbench.
[0008] Preferably, a first guardrail is fixedly installed on the top of the protective plate, and a second guardrail is fixedly installed on one side of the first guardrail.
[0009] The above solution achieves a protective effect by setting up the first guardrail.
[0010] Preferably, a protective pad is fixedly installed on one side of the first guardrail, and an L-shaped frame is fixedly installed on one side of the workbench.
[0011] The above solution, by setting up protective padding, allows workers to stand more comfortably on top of the workbench while leaning against the first guardrail.
[0012] Preferably, the front end of the L-shaped frame has a footrest opening.
[0013] With the above solution, by setting up an L-shaped frame, workers can climb to the top of the workbench through the footholds on the L-shaped frame.
[0014] Preferably, support shafts are fixedly provided at the four bottom corners of the base.
[0015] The above solution allows the self-locking caster wheels to be rotatably connected to the bottom of the support shaft by setting a support shaft.
[0016] Preferably, the bottom of the support shaft is movably provided with a self-locking universal wheel.
[0017] The above solution, by incorporating self-locking casters, enables the device to move.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. This shock-absorbing optimized structure of a buffer device for facilitating pilots' return to the pilot boat involves first moving the device, which, with the help of self-locking casters, moves to a suitable position on the pilot boat. The casters are then locked to maintain stability. A combination of an electric push rod and a push rod allows the work platform to reach the appropriate height. The pilot then descends from the rope ladder of the large vessel being piloted. Upon touching the work platform, the pilot steps directly onto it, holding onto the second guardrail, and then descends through the footrest. This design prevents the bottom of the rope ladder from being placed directly on the pilot boat, thus avoiding snagging on objects on the pilot boat's surface and reducing safety hazards.
[0019] 2. The shock-absorbing optimized structure of the buffer device for facilitating pilots' return to the pilot boat, when the pilot steps on the top of the work platform, the device can absorb shock through the combined action of springs, telescopic rods, first support pads and second support pads. When the pilot jumps onto the work platform, it plays a certain buffering role, protecting the pilot and improving the comfort of using the device. Attached Figure Description

[0024] In this embodiment, preferably, a mounting opening 11 is provided on one side of the protective plate 10, and a transparent acrylic plate 12 is fixedly installed inside the mounting opening 11. A first guardrail 13 is fixedly installed on the top of the protective plate 10, a second guardrail 14 is fixedly installed on one side of the first guardrail 13, and a protective soft pad 15 is fixedly installed on one side of the first guardrail 13. An L-shaped frame 16 is fixedly installed on one side of the workbench 9, and a foot pedal opening 17 is provided at the front end of the L-shaped frame 16. Support shafts 18 are fixedly installed at the four corners of the bottom of the base 1, and self-locking universal wheels 19 are movably installed at the bottom of the support shafts 18.
[0025] Through the above scheme, by setting the transparent acrylic plate 12, the field of vision of the staff standing on the top of the workbench 9 can be increased. By setting the first guardrail 13, a protective effect is achieved. By setting the protective soft pad 15, the staff can stand on the top of the workbench 9 and lean against the first guardrail 13 more comfortably. By setting the L-shaped frame 16, the staff can climb onto the top of the workbench 9 through the step opening 17 on the L-shaped frame 16.

[0026] In this embodiment, a shock-absorbing optimized structure for a buffer device that facilitates pilots' return to the pilot boat is used. First, the device is moved by pushing it. Under the action of the self-locking casters 19, the device moves to a suitable position on the pilot boat. Then, the self-locking casters 19 are locked to keep the device stable. Through the combined action of the electric push rod 7 and the push rod 8, the work platform 9 can reach a suitable height. Then, the pilot descends from the rope ladder of the large ship to be piloted. When his feet touch the work platform 9, he steps directly onto the work platform 9, holds onto the second guardrail 14 with both hands, and then steps down through the footrest 17. Through the above design, the bottom of the rope ladder is prevented from being placed directly on the pilot boat, preventing it from snagging on objects on the surface of the pilot boat and reducing safety hazards. When the pilot steps on the top of the work platform 9, the combined action of the spring 4, the telescopic rod 5, the first support pad 2, and the second support pad 3 enables the device to absorb shock. When the pilot jumps onto the work platform 9, it plays a certain role in cushioning, protecting the pilot, and also improving the comfort of using the device.
