Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of marine controller technology, specifically relating to a marine electrical controller based on MIBT control. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, in the maritime field, including ship bridges and control centers, electrical control systems typically consist of multiple fixed consoles or cabinets. These cabinets correspond to different functional modules of the ship, such as the propulsion system, navigation system, and power management system, and are fixedly installed in the control room according to a certain layout. However, this fixed layout has significant limitations.

[0003] Typically, multiple operators control a single control cabinet individually. When there is a shortage of manpower and a single operator needs to control multiple control cabinets, they need to move around, which affects operational efficiency and responsiveness. On the other hand, the fixed layout lacks flexibility and cannot be customized according to the operator's height, operating habits, or specific task scenarios, resulting in a poor ergonomic experience.

[0004] Furthermore, although some movable control devices exist in existing technologies, they are mostly independent units and lack a collaborative linkage mechanism with the operator's seat. After adjusting the position of a control cabinet, the operator still needs to manually adjust the direction of their seat or their own posture to adapt, making the operation process neither smooth nor intelligent. In view of this, this solution was developed. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a marine electrical controller based on MIBT control, which can be operated by multiple people simultaneously and by a single person operating multiple devices simultaneously.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a marine electrical controller based on MIBT control, including three control cabinets, three drive components and a center chair. The three control cabinets are located on three sides of the center chair, the center chair can rotate, and the three drive components are respectively used to drive the three control cabinets to move closer to or away from the center chair.

[0007] Furthermore, the drive assembly includes two slide rails, two pulleys, and a dual-drive-shaft motor. The two slide rails are laid on the ground and spaced apart. The lower surface of the control cabinet has two spaced-apart mounting slots. A slider is installed in the mounting slot. The slider is adapted to the slide rail. A clearance notch is provided above the slider. The pulley is installed in the clearance notch. The two drive shafts of the dual-drive-shaft motor directly drive the two pulleys respectively.

[0008] Furthermore, a T-shaped groove is provided below the control cabinet, and an I-beam rail is laid on the bottom surface. The upper end of the I-beam rail is adapted to the T-shaped groove, and the I-beam cabinet is located between two slide rails.

[0009] Furthermore, the slide rail has a trapezoidal cross-section.

[0010] Furthermore, the drive assembly also includes front and rear positioning components, with connecting plates respectively provided at the front and rear ends of the two slide rails, and proximity switches provided on the two connecting plates facing one side.

[0011] Furthermore, the upper surface of the control cabinet has a control area, which includes a display panel and an operation panel that are set at an angle. The display panel has a display screen, an instrument panel and indicator lights, and the operation panel is provided with control buttons and control knobs.

[0012] Furthermore, the operation panel is provided with a rotating seat, a hinged arm, and a three-jaw chuck. The rotating seat is rotatably connected to the surface of the operation panel. Two hinge plates are formed on the rotating seat. The lower end of the hinged arm is located within the two hinge plates and is hinged. A protrusion is formed on the back of the three-jaw chuck. A hinge groove is formed on the lower surface of the protrusion. Rotating shafts are formed on both sides of the upper end of the hinged arm. The rotating shafts extend into the hinge grooves and are hinged.

[0013] Furthermore, the control panel is also equipped with an operating handle.

[0014] Furthermore, the central chair includes a seat and a backrest, the backrest is angle-adjustable, and three toggle buttons are provided on one side of the seat. The three toggle buttons are used to control the three drive components to move forward and backward.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: This invention uses three drive components to control three control cabinets to move closer to or further away from the central chair. The control cabinet directly opposite the central chair is the main control cabinet. When multiple people are operating the system, the main control cabinet can move closer to or further away from the central chair, while the control cabinets on either side must move further away from the central chair. When a single person is operating all three control cabinets, the operator is positioned in the central chair, and the drive components control the three control cabinets to move closer to the central chair. This allows the operator to operate multiple control cabinets simultaneously. Compared to existing horizontal control cabinets, the operator does not need to move back and forth frequently, reducing the time required between operations and improving response speed.

[0018] To make the above-mentioned features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, specific embodiments are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings for detailed explanation.

[0019] like Figures 1-3 As shown in the figure, this embodiment of a marine electrical controller based on MIBT control includes three control cabinets 1, three drive components 2, and a central chair 3.

[0020] In this embodiment, three control cabinets 1, three drive components 2 and one central chair 3 form a group. Multiple groups can be set up according to the ship model and the space of the bridge to adapt to the needs of marine electrical control.

[0021] The three control cabinets 1 correspond to the ship's propulsion system, navigation and communication system, and electrical auxiliary system, respectively. They are arranged in a U-shape in front of and on the left and right sides of the central chair 3. The base of the central chair 3 integrates a rotating mechanism, which is a common rotating structure for existing chairs. This mechanism allows the seat 32 to rotate 360 ​​degrees, making it convenient for the operator to face the control cabinet 1 that needs to be operated.

[0022] In another implementation, the central chair 3 may not be installed; instead, it consists of a group of three control cabinets 1 and three drive components 2, with the operator standing to operate it.

[0023] Each control cabinet 1 is equipped with an MIBT intelligent slave module. These slave modules are connected to the MIBT master controller in any designated master control cabinet 1 via a redundant high-speed communication bus that runs through all control cabinets 1 and the central control cabinet 3.

[0024] Sensor data, instrument readings, and button commands from control cabinet 1 are all acquired and preprocessed through their respective MIBT slave modules, and then uploaded to the master station in real time via the bus. Simultaneously, control commands issued by the master station are also accurately delivered to the corresponding actuators via this bus. This architecture greatly simplifies the complex wiring connections of traditional controllers, achieving integrated and modular transmission of power and signals.

[0025] Drive assembly 2 is used to drive control cabinet 1 to move in a straight line towards or away from the central chair 3, suitable for situations where a single operator operates multiple control cabinets 1 simultaneously. Drive assembly 2 includes two parallel trapezoidal slide rails 21 laid on the ground, two pulleys, and a dual-drive-shaft motor. The lower surface of control cabinet 1 has two mounting slots, in which sliders adapted to slide rails 21 are installed. The trapezoidal cross-section is designed to increase the contact area. A clearance notch is provided above the slider, where the pulleys are installed. The two output shafts of the dual-drive-shaft motor directly drive the two pulleys to rotate synchronously via a coupling, thereby driving the entire control cabinet 1 to move smoothly. To ensure stability during movement, a T-shaped groove is provided below the control cabinet 1, and an I-beam rail 22 is laid at the corresponding position on the ground. The T-shaped groove engages with the upper end of the I-beam rail 22 to form auxiliary guidance and limit. Because the ship will sway during the course, if the drive component 2 is driven, guided and limited by the slide rail 21 and the slider, it will be very easy to be damaged, causing the control cabinet 1 to be unable to move forward and backward normally. Therefore, the T-shaped groove and the I-beam rail 22 are set to withstand the swaying force during the journey and reduce the damage to the slide rail 21 and the slider.

[0026] Preferably, to precisely control the movement of the control cabinet 1, the drive assembly 2 also includes front and rear positioning components. Connecting plates 23 are respectively installed at the front and rear ends of the two slide rails 21 and the I-beam rail 22. A proximity switch 24 is installed on the inner side of each of the two connecting plates 23. When the control cabinet 1 moves to its front or rear limit position, the metal sensor on the cabinet body triggers the corresponding proximity switch 24. The signal is immediately transmitted to the main controller via the MIBT bus, and the main controller then cuts off the power to the dual-drive shaft motors, achieving precise positioning and hardware protection.

[0027] In this scheme, control cabinet 1 has only two states: one is far away from the central chair 3 (multiple people operate), and the other is close to the central chair 3 (single person operate). The arrival of both states is determined by whether the corresponding proximity switch 24 is triggered.

[0028] The upper surface of the control cabinet 1 is an inclined control area, divided into a display panel 11 and an operation panel 12. The display panel 11 integrates a display screen 111, an instrument panel 112, and indicator lights 113. In addition to the conventional control buttons 121, control knobs 122, and operation handles 123, the operation panel 12 also has a mounting system. This system includes a rotating base 13, a hinged arm 14, and a three-jaw chuck 15. The rotating base 13 is rotatably connected to the surface of the operation panel 12. Two hinge plates 131 are formed on the rotating base 13. The lower end of the hinged arm 14 is located within and hinged to the two hinge plates 131. A boss 151 is formed on the back of the three-jaw chuck 15. A hinge groove is formed on the lower surface of the boss 151. Rotating shafts are formed on both sides of the upper end of the hinged arm 14. The rotating shafts extend into the hinge grooves and are hinged. The three-jaw chuck 15 is used to clamp movable terminal devices such as tablets.

[0029] Preferably, the center chair 3 includes a seat 32 and a backrest 31 with multi-position adjustable angle. This structure is existing and will not be described in detail here. Three toggle buttons 33 are provided on one side of the seat 32, corresponding to the three control cabinets 1 respectively. The operator does not need to get up; simply by sitting in the chair and toggling the corresponding buttons, commands can be sent to the MIBT master station controller to control the forward and reverse rotation of the motors of the corresponding drive components 2, thereby achieving an intelligent control effect of "coming when called and going when dismissed." The movement status of all control cabinets 1, system alarm information, etc., can be collected through the MIBT network and displayed on the integrated display screen 111 on the armrest of the center chair 3 or the main display screen 111 of the control cabinet 1. Furthermore, an on / off button for controlling the toggle buttons 33 is also provided on the side wall of the seat 32. The on / off button has a transparent frame that can be opened and closed. Only when the on / off button is pressed can the three toggle buttons 33 control the three dual-drive shaft motors.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this invention.
