Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a light buoy in which a light fixture is placed on the top of a tower erected on the upper surface of a floating body.

This type of light buoy is floated in ports and shipping lanes as a navigational guide for ships, and recently there has been a demand for a multipurpose light buoy that has high luminous power, great visibility, and can also be used as a sonic beacon.

As a result, the number of tower-mounted electrical devices has increased, and a large number of large-capacity storage batteries have become necessary to supply power to these electrical devices.

This large capacity storage battery is, for example, 1.25V per unit, 20
The weight of 00AH is 185V4, totaling 20 pieces 25V 2000AH 3700KI1K.

It was dangerous and impossible to load and unload these from ships to light buoys manually.

The present invention has been proposed in view of the above, and its purpose is to facilitate loading and unloading of storage batteries.

The embodiments shown in the drawings will be described below.

FIG. 1 is a front view of the entire light buoy of the present invention, in which a light fixture 4 is placed on the top surface 3 of a tower 2 erected on the top surface of a hollow floating body 1, and a storage battery 5 is placed in and out of the floating body 1. boom 6
is provided in the tower 2, an opening 7 with a sealed lid is formed on the upper surface of the floating body, a rail 8 for transporting the storage battery 5 is provided on the ceiling surface 1a of the floating body, and a chain block is movably mounted on the rail 8. 9 is suspended.

The central pipe 10, which penetrates and is fixed to the center of the floating body 1, has its lower surface open in still water where it is not affected by waves, and the upper part of the central pipe 10 which is fixed through the center of the floating body 1. It has an air turbine generator 11 to be driven.

The generated output of the generator 11 charges a storage battery 5, and power is supplied from the storage battery 5 to the lamp 4 and electric equipment (not shown).

The above tower 2 has main pillars 2a located at the four corners of a square.
The gaps are connected by diagonal members 2b and cross members 2c, respectively.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the pool 6 is rotatably attached to the end of the cross member 2c of the tower 2, and has a tension bar 12 installed between the other end and the tower. Support wire 13a, 1 stretched between the other end and the upper surface of the floating body
3b and is supported substantially horizontally.

A ten block hanging member 15 is attached to the boom 6 via a roller 14 so as to be able to move freely.

The manual winch 16 is installed on the lower part 1 of the main column 2a or on the upper surface of the floating body, and one end of the wire 17 wound around the wiener drum 16a is attached to the side member 15 via a pulley 18, and the other end is attached to the holder 19. It is attached to the member 15 via 20 from the opposite direction to the above.

A rail 8 is formed continuously from one side of the open lower part around the central pipe 10 to the other end, and a chain block suspension trolley 21 is movably attached to this rail 8. .

As shown in FIG. 6, this truck 21 has metal fittings 21 provided on both leg sides 21b, 21b of a truck main body 21a having an H-shaped cross section.
The guide wheels 21d, 21d are attached to the metal fittings 2 so as to be in contact with the central connection side 8a of the rail 8, which has a ■-shaped cross section, and the four guide wheels 21e are attached to the bracket 2 so as to roll on the horizontal side 8b of the rail 8.
1b and attached to both leg sides 21b, 21b, and a chain ring 21g is attached to the lower surface of the central connecting piece 21f of the trolley body 21.

Since the present invention has the above-described configuration, when loading a storage battery, the member 15 is moved to the tip of the boom 6 as shown in FIG.

Next, operate the manual winch 16 to move the chenobrock 23.
Move it to the top of the opening lower, and
3a and open the storage battery 5 from the lower part of the floating body 1. Fall inside.

This storage battery 5 is suspended on the ten block 9, and the rail 8
The loading work of the storage battery 5 is completed by moving it to an arbitrary position along.

Then, the storage battery 5 is unloaded onto the ship in the reverse order of operation to that described above.

As mentioned above, the light buoy of the present invention is equipped with a chain block for hoisting and suspending storage batteries on the boom attached to the tower, and a chain block for transporting storage batteries is installed inside the floating body, which was previously done by hand. This has the effect that loading and unloading of storage batteries can be carried out easily and safely.

Also, since the boom is rotatably attached to the tower,
After completing the work, move it back so that it touches the side of the tower as shown by the chain line in Figure 4, and it will come within the diameter of the floating body 1.
Does not interfere with navigation.

In the past, the boom would be located close to the center of gravity of the light buoy in the center of the tower, so it would not displace the center of gravity of the light buoy.

Therefore, the stability of the light buoy in its floating state is not compromised.

Note that hydrogen gas and oxygen gas are generated when the storage battery 5 is charged, and it is dangerous if a large amount of these gases fills the sealed floating body 1.

Therefore, the illustrated light buoy uses a pipe for the main pillar 2a of the tower 2, with a communication hole 25 provided at the upper part of the main pillar 2a, and an intake hole 26a provided at the lower part of the main pillar 2a inserted into the floating body 1. ,
Further, an exhaust hole 26b is provided in the upper part of the floating body insertion portion of the other main pillar 2a.

As shown in FIG. 7, a cylindrical body 29 having a number of small holes 28 on the lower peripheral surface is attached to the communicating hole 25 via a connecting pipe 27, and a valve 30 is provided inside the cylindrical body 29. , floating body 1
Good ventilation inside.

The valve 30 does not need to be provided.

Further, the lower end of each main pillar 2a is fixed to the floating body midsole 1a to strengthen the floating body 1.

In the figure, 31 is a scaffold formed on the top of the tower 2, and 32 is a safety fence provided around the scaffold 31.
