[0003] This invention specifically relates to a high-strength sea anchor connection component and a lifeboat. Background Technology

[0004] Currently, the anchor connection components of lifeboats have the same structure as other accessory connection components, resulting in relatively low structural strength. This strength is insufficient to meet the requirements of anchor connections on large lifeboats. Meanwhile, the need for lifeboats to adapt to high sea states is becoming increasingly urgent, placing higher strength requirements on anchors and anchor connections in high sea states. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a high-strength sea anchor connection component and a lifeboat, which can provide a high-strength connection component for the sea anchor of a large lifeboat, improve the stability of the large lifeboat and the stability of the lifeboat in high sea state environment, and is especially suitable for airbag lifeboats.

[0006] The technical solution adopted in this invention is:

[0007] A high-strength sea anchor connection component includes a fixing rope, a large reinforcing plate and small patches arranged in layers, one end of the fixing rope being distributed between the large reinforcing plate and the small patches, and the other end passing through the large reinforcing plate and extending outward, and being braided into a rope loop.

[0008] A lifeboat, wherein the lifeboat is cold-bonded with high-strength sea anchor connection components as described above.

[0009] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0010] This invention provides a high-strength connecting component for the anchor of a large lifeboat by fixing the rope to the large reinforcing plate and the small patch. It solves the problem of high strength requirements for the anchor connection in high sea state environments without damaging the outer wall of the lifeboat, thus improving the stability of large lifeboats and their stability in high sea state environments. It is especially suitable for airbag lifeboats. This product can be applied to lifeboats or other floating products and has broad application prospects. Attached Figure Description

[0023] Example 1

[0024] A high-strength sea anchor connection component, as shown in Figures 1-8, includes a fixing rope 1, a large reinforcing plate 4 and small patches 2 arranged in layers. One end of the fixing rope 1 is distributed between the large reinforcing plate 4 and the small patches 2, and the other end extends outward through the large reinforcing plate 4 and is braided into a rope loop. The large reinforcing plate 4 is located at the lower end of the fixing rope to increase its strength. The small patches 2 are located at the bottom of the sea anchor connection component and are used to cover the fixing rope so that when the sea anchor connection component is cold-bonded to the hull, the contact parts are all polyurethane adhesive tape, thereby increasing the strength of the sea anchor connection component.

[0025] Furthermore, the fixing rope 1 is made of multiple strands of rope wound together. One end of the multiple strands of rope is wound into a rope loop, and the other end is first wound in a twisted manner, and then wound and rolled with a braided knot. After being divided into multiple ropes, they are evenly distributed on the large reinforcing plate 4.

[0026] Furthermore, each strand of the fixing rope 1 is sewn to the large reinforcing plate 4 and the small patch 2, and the large reinforcing plate 4 and the small patch 2 are cold-bonded together.

[0027] Furthermore, the fixing rope 1 is made of eight to ten strands of brocade rope braided together.

[0028] Furthermore, the optimal choice in this embodiment is to use nine strands of brocade cords intertwined together.

[0029] Example 2

[0030] Based on Example 1, the addition of a large patch and a small reinforcing patch resulted in Example 2 having even better performance.

[0031] Large reinforcing plate 4 is further layered with large reinforcing patch 5 and small reinforcing plate 3 from top to bottom. The loop end of the fixing rope 1 passes through the large reinforcing plate 4, small reinforcing plate 3 and large reinforcing patch 5 in sequence and extends outward. The small reinforcing plate 3 is located at the lower end of the large reinforcing patch 5 and covers the sewing position between the fixing rope 1 and the large reinforcing plate 4 to increase the strength of the large reinforcing plate. The large reinforcing patch 5 is located at the uppermost end of the sea anchor connection component and provides support for the sea anchor connection component. The small reinforcing patch 3 and large reinforcing patch 5 can prevent the edge of the perforated rope of the high-strength sea anchor connection component from being damaged during the pulling of the fixing rope 1.

[0032] Furthermore, the large patch 5, the small reinforcing patch 3, the large reinforcing patch 4, and the small patch 2 are connected by cold bonding.

[0033] Furthermore, the small patch 2 is connected to the large reinforcing plate 4 and the fixing rope 1 by cold bonding, which increases the strength of the fixing rope.

[0034] Furthermore, the large reinforcing plate 4, the small reinforcing plate 3, and the large patch 5 are all circular rings and arranged concentrically; the fixing rope 1 can pass through the middle of the ring structure.

[0035] Furthermore, the small patch 2 is circular and arranged concentrically with the large reinforcing plate 4. The small patch 2 is used to cover and fix the rope and the large reinforcing plate 4 through the hole, and to cover and seal the bottom of the central hole of the annular large reinforcing plate 4, the small reinforcing plate 3 and the large patch 5, so that the overall main structure is circular.

[0036] Furthermore, the loop end of the fixing rope is connected to the sea anchor via a flat knot.

[0037] A lifeboat has a high-strength sea anchor connecting component as described above cold-bonded to its buoy 6. The bottom end of the large reinforcing plate 4 and the small patch 2 of the high-strength sea anchor connecting component are cold-bonded to the lifeboat.

[0038] The working principle of this invention is as follows: As shown in Figures 1-4, the main structure of the high-strength sea anchor connection component is circular, comprising fixing ropes, small patches, small reinforcing plates, large reinforcing plates, and large patches. Each of the nine fixing ropes 1 is divided into three strands and braided in a twisted pattern, as shown in Figure 5. After being folded in half from the middle, a rope loop is formed. Furthermore, both ends of the rope loop are divided into three strands and braided in a twisted pattern. Further, the binding thread is braided using a braided knot (single-flower braid) as shown in Figure 6.

[0039] Furthermore, the large reinforcing piece 4 and the small patch 2 are cold-bonded together, and the ends of the fixing rope 1 are evenly distributed on the large reinforcing piece 4 and fixed by sewing.

[0040] Furthermore, the small reinforcing piece 3 and the large patch 5 are cold-bonded together;

[0041] Furthermore, the fixing rope 1 loop passes through the ring between the small reinforcing plate 3 and the large patch 5;

[0042] Furthermore, the large patch (5 pieces) and the small patch (2 pieces) are cold-bonded together.

[0043] As shown in Figure 7, the high-strength sea anchor connection component is fixed to the lifeboat buoy 6 by cold bonding. The sea anchor is connected to the rope loop of the fixing rope 1 through the flat knot shown in Figure 8, which can provide stability for the lifeboat when it floats at sea and greatly improve the stability of the lifeboat.

[0044] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations.
