Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aquaculture technology, and in particular to a monitoring equipment mounting frame for intertidal shellfish aquaculture environment. Background Technology

[0002] Intertidal shellfish farming is an important marine aquaculture model. Hydrological parameters such as water temperature, salinity, and dissolved oxygen in the farming environment directly affect the growth and quality of the shellfish. To achieve scientific and precise farming, various environmental monitoring sensors need to be deployed in the farming area to acquire key data in real time. These sensors typically need to be fixed to the farming area using mounting brackets.

[0003] Existing mounting frames are mostly simple columns or supports that are fixed by directly inserting them into the mudflats. However, the most prominent feature of the intertidal environment is the periodic and dramatic changes in water level caused by tides. For mounting frames at a fixed height, during high tide, the monitoring equipment may be completely submerged to excessive depths, deviating from the target monitoring water layer; while during low tide, the equipment may be completely exposed to the air, making it impossible to collect effective water data, resulting in interruptions in monitoring work and discontinuities in data.

[0004] To address this issue, while some mounting frames are designed with height adjustment functions, their adjustment methods typically rely on traditional structures such as bolt fastening or pin insertion. In the muddy, slippery, and complex environment of the intertidal zone, operators need to carry tools and laboriously loosen, adjust, and then tighten the frames. This adjustment process is not only cumbersome and time-consuming, but also extremely inconvenient in inclement weather or emergency situations, making it difficult to achieve rapid and frequent height adjustments based on tidal changes. This severely impacts the efficiency and practicality of monitoring work. Therefore, this utility model proposes a monitoring equipment mounting frame for intertidal shellfish aquaculture environments to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a monitoring equipment mounting frame for intertidal shellfish aquaculture environments, aiming to improve the problems of existing monitoring equipment mounting frames for intertidal shellfish aquaculture environments, such as complex height adjustment structures, cumbersome and time-consuming operation, and difficulty in quickly adapting to tidal changes.

[0014] Preferably, the rotating universal mounting mechanism further includes a second spring and a limiting post for positioning the second spring; the second spring is disposed inside the fixed plate and abuts against the inner side of the sliding block, for providing a restoring force to drive the sliding block to engage inward.

[0015] Preferably, an annular groove is formed on the outer peripheral wall of the universal mounting base, and the end of the sliding block is used to extend into the annular groove.

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.

[0030] Example:

[0031] Reference Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides a monitoring equipment mounting frame for intertidal shellfish aquaculture environments, which aims to solve the problems of unstable anchoring, complex height adjustment structure, and inconvenient equipment disassembly and assembly in existing monitoring equipment mounting frames in intertidal environments.

[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the mounting frame for monitoring equipment used in intertidal shellfish aquaculture environments includes a spiral anchor pile 2 and a column that can be telescopically installed on the spiral anchor pile 2; the column includes a primary column 31, a secondary column 32 coaxially slidingly fitted within the primary column 31, and a tertiary column 33 coaxially slidingly fitted within the secondary column 32; the mounting frame also includes a height adjustment and locking mechanism 3, which is used to adjust and lock the extension height of the secondary column 32 and the tertiary column 33 relative to the primary column 31.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 The specific structure of the height adjustment locking mechanism 3 includes a sliding ring 376, which is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the first-stage column 31, and the sliding ring 376 is connected to the anti-corrosion reinforcing rope 35 for lifting the second-stage column 32 and the third-stage column 33; the height adjustment locking mechanism 3 also includes a locking component 37 disposed on the sliding ring 376; the locking component 37 includes a pin 373 that can be radially moved through the sliding ring 376, and correspondingly, the outer wall of the first-stage column 31 is provided with a plurality of grooves along its length for selective insertion of the pin 373;

[0034] The locking assembly 37 also includes a push-rotating block 371 for driving the pin 373. The push-rotating block 371 abuts against the pin 373 via the bracket 372 and drives the pin 373 to move in the direction of disengaging from the groove. The locking assembly 37 also includes a spring 374 and a limiting ring 375. The spring 374 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the pin 373. The two ends of the spring 374 abut against the inner wall of the limiting ring 375 and the sliding ring 376, respectively. Under normal conditions, the spring 374 drives the pin 373 to insert into the groove through the limiting ring 375, so as to reliably lock the sliding ring 376.

[0035] Reference Figure 2 The top of the spiral anchor pile 2 is fixedly connected to a stabilizing plate 1, which is a circular flat plate structure used to place it flat on the ground during installation to increase the support area of ​​the entire mounting frame bottom.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 The height adjustment and locking mechanism 3 also includes a grooved wheel 36 located at the top of the primary column 31. One end of the anti-corrosion reinforcing rope 35 is connected to the sliding ring 376 through a fixed point 34, and the other end of the anti-corrosion reinforcing rope 35 passes upward around the grooved wheel 36 and extends downward to be fixedly connected to the bottom of the secondary column 32. When the sliding ring 376 slides downward along the primary column 31, it pulls the secondary column 32 upward through the anti-corrosion reinforcing rope 35 and the grooved wheel 36. When the sliding ring 376 slides upward, the secondary column 32 retracts downward under its own weight.

[0037] A second set of anti-corrosion reinforcing ropes 35 and grooved wheels 36 are also provided; the fixing point 34 of this set is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the first-level column 31, and the grooved wheel 36 of this set is rotatably installed on the top of the second-level column 32; one end of the anti-corrosion reinforcing rope 35 of this set is connected to the fixing point 34, and the other end goes up around the grooved wheel 36 installed on the top of the second-level column 32, and then extends downward and is fixedly connected to the bottom of the third-level column 33; when the second-level column 32 extends upward relative to the first-level column 31, the second-level column 32 will drive the grooved wheel 36 at its top to move upward, thereby synchronously lifting the third-level column 33 relative to the second-level column 32 through this set of anti-corrosion reinforcing ropes 35.

[0038] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 The top of the mounting bracket also includes a rotating universal mounting mechanism 4; the rotating universal mounting mechanism 4 includes a fixed plate 46, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to the top of the three-stage column 33; a rotating plate 41 is rotatably sleeved on the outside of the fixed plate 46; a plurality of sliding blocks 43 are radially slidably disposed in the grooves opened inside the fixed plate 46, and the sliding blocks 43 are connected to the rotating plate 41 in a transmission manner, and the sliding blocks 43 are used to engage or release the universal mounting base 47.

[0039] The inner wall of the rotating disk 41 is provided with a spiral groove. The rotating universal mounting mechanism 4 also includes a sliding column 42. One end of the sliding column 42 is slidably connected to the spiral groove, and the other end is connected to the sliding block 43, which is used to convert the axial rotation of the rotating disk 41 into the radial sliding of the sliding block 43. The rotating universal mounting mechanism 4 also includes a second spring 44 and a limiting column 45 for positioning the second spring 44. The second spring 44 is disposed in the fixed disk 46 and abuts against the inner side of the sliding block 43. The outer peripheral wall of the universal mounting base 47 is provided with an annular groove, and the end of the sliding block 43 is used to extend into the annular groove to lock the universal mounting base 47.

[0040] The implementation principle of this application embodiment is as follows: During installation and deployment, the spiral anchor pile 2 is drilled into the soft intertidal soil, while the stabilizing plate 1 is laid flat on the ground. The two work together to provide a stable anchoring foundation for the entire mounting frame. When adjusting the height, first press the rotating block 371. The rotating block 371 pushes the pin 373 through the bracket 372. As the pin 373 moves radially outward, it drives the limiting ring 375 to move synchronously and compress the spring 374. When the end of the pin 373 is completely disengaged from the groove on the primary column 31, the sliding ring 376 is unlocked and can slide freely. Slide the sliding ring 376 downward. The sliding ring 376 pulls the anti-corrosion reinforcing rope 35 through the fixed point 34. The anti-corrosion reinforcing rope 35 passes around the grooved wheel 36 at the top of the primary column 31 and pulls the secondary column 32 upward. During the upward movement of the secondary column 32, the grooved wheel 36 at its top will pull the tertiary column 33 upward synchronously through another set of anti-corrosion reinforcing ropes 35, thereby realizing the extension of the column. After adjusting to the appropriate height, the push-to-rotate block 371 is released, the spring 374 rebounds, pushes the limit ring 375 and the pin 373 to reset, so that the pin 373 is re-inserted into the groove of the primary column 31, thereby locking the position of the sliding ring 376 and fixing the height of the column accordingly.

[0041] When installing the monitoring equipment, first, the universal mounting base 47 is pre-fixed to the monitoring equipment; then, the rotating disk 41 of the universal mounting mechanism 4 is rotated clockwise. The spiral groove on the inner wall of the rotating disk 41 drives the sliding column 42. The sliding column 42 pushes the sliding block 43 to slide radially outward along the groove in the fixed disk 46 and squeezes the second spring 44; when all the sliding blocks 43 are retracted into the fixed disk 46, the universal mounting base 47 can be placed into the central cavity of the fixed disk 46; when the rotating disk 41 is released, the squeezed second spring 44 rebounds under the limit of the limiting column 45, pushing the sliding block 43 to reset inward and lock into the annular groove on the outer wall of the universal mounting base 47, thereby quickly and firmly locking the monitoring equipment on the mounting frame; the operation is reversed when removing the equipment.
