  Hereinafter, an embodiment for carrying out a pressure processing system 1 to which the present invention is applied will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

(First embodiment)
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing a pressure processing system 1 according to the first embodiment. FIG. 2 is a schematic view mainly showing the container 2. FIG. 3 is a schematic view mainly showing the sealed container Q. As shown in FIG. The pressure processing system 1 pressurizes the object P by immersing the object P in the sea or lake. Hereinafter, although the case where the target object P is immersed in the sea is demonstrated, in the present invention, when the target object P is immersed in the lake, the sea may be appropriately read as a lake.

  The pressure processing system 1 is provided in the vicinity of the sea bottom G having a water depth D from the sea level L of about 200 m to 10,000 m. The pressure processing system 1 immerses the object P at a water depth D of about 200 m to 10,000 m for a predetermined period. Thereby, the low temperature and the high pressure can be applied to the object P. For this reason, the pressure processing system 1 can press-process the object P. The water depth D may be appropriately set according to the pressure applied to the object P. Moreover, what is necessary is just to set the period immersed in the sea suitably according to the target object P, for example, 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 1 year.

  When the target P is a food, the pressure processing system 1 can perform processing such as sterilization and sterilization of the food with the applied pressure. Further, when the object P is a food, the pressure processing system 1 can process the food with the applied pressure. Moreover, it can process by impregnating the objects P, such as a foodstuff, with the liquids, such as a soup, with the applied pressure.

  The object P is a sealed container Q for bags made of flexible polyester, polypropylene, nylon, polyethylene, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinylidene chloride, polyethylene terephthalate, ethylene vinyl alcohol, polyvinyl alcohol, etc. Are sealed in a vacuum. As the sealed container Q, a bag or the like having no water permeability or extremely low water permeability is used. The object P is, for example, food. The object P may be meat such as tuna, meat, and yukke, for example. The target object P may be fermented foods such as cheese and natto, for example. The object P may be processed foods such as ham and hamburger. For example, the object P may be a baby food. The target P may be, for example, a medicinal herb such as Dokudami. The object P may be a dairy product such as milk, for example. For example, the object P may be honey. For example, the object P may be a beverage such as orange juice. The object P may be, for example, shellfish such as oysters, scallops, clams. The object P may be, for example, a crustacean such as a crab or a shrimp. The object P may be, for example, a cephalopod such as an octopus or squid. The object P may be, for example, a disaster prevention food, an emergency food, or the like. The object P may be, for example, alcohol such as liquor and wine. The object P may be fermented foods such as soy sauce and miso. The object P may be vegetables such as onions, carrots, and radishes. The object P may be a pickle, for example. The object P may be, for example, a food material enclosed with a liquid such as soup stock. The object P may be a jam. The target P may be rice or vegetables, and may be sealed in a sealed container Q together with a liquid such as water.

  The object P may be diamond. The object P may be a mixture of copper and aluminum. For example, the object P may be wood that is sealed together with a chemical solution such as a boric acid solution or a phosphoric acid solution.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the sealed container Q may seal a plurality of objects P and a powder B having a diameter smaller than that of the object P. Thereby, when pressure acts on the object P through the flexible sealed container Q, the powder B is arranged in the gap between the plurality of objects P, and excessive pressure acts on the object P. It can be prevented from bursting. The powder B may be a powder obtained by pulverizing the object P. For example, the object P is rice, and the powder B is rice flour or the like.

  The pressure processing system 1 includes a container 2, a buoyancy body 3, a weight body 4, and a separation mechanism 5. The apparent specific gravity of the entire pressure processing system 1 (mainly, the container 2, the buoyancy body 3, the weight body 4, and the separation mechanism 5) is about 1.1, which is larger than the specific gravity of seawater. For this reason, the pressure processing system 1 immersed in the sea naturally sinks in the seawater.

  The container 2 is for housing the object P. The container 2 includes a pallet 21 having a bottom portion 21 a on which the object P is placed, and a frame body 29 that supports the pallet 21. As for the container 2, the pallet 21 is laminated | stacked over several steps. The pallets 21 are connected to each other by a predetermined connecting means such as a nylon rope (not shown). The pallet 21 has a hole 21b formed in the bottom 21a. The frame 29 has an opening (not shown) formed in the bottom 29a on which the pallet 21 is placed. The frame 29 is configured by combining rods 29b such that the outer shape is a rectangular parallelepiped. The frame body 29 is provided with a net body such as a wire net (not shown) around the frame body 29. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the pallet 21 from dropping from the frame body 29. The buoyancy body 3 is attached to the upper part of the frame body 29. The separation mechanism 5 is attached to the lower part of the frame body 29.

  The container 2 may be provided with fins 28. For example, the fin 28 made of FRP (fiberglass Reinforced Plastic) is used. In the example of FIG. 2, the fins 28 are formed in a triangular shape so as to protrude toward the side perpendicular to the depth direction. The fins 28 are arranged at the four corners of a frame 29 having a rectangular parallelepiped shape. Since the container 2 is provided with the fins 28, the container 2 can stably descend and float in the water. In addition, the frame 2 may be abbreviate | omitted to the container 2, and the pallets 21 are connected by predetermined connection means, such as a rope, at this time, for example.

  FIG. 4 is a sectional view mainly showing the buoyancy body 3. The buoyancy body 3 is for floating the container 2 in seawater. The buoyancy body 3 acts in a state where it is immersed in the sea. The buoyancy body 3 includes a first accommodation bag 31 and a second accommodation bag 32. One buoyancy body 3 is provided in the present embodiment, but a plurality of buoyancy bodies 3 may be provided in the present invention.

  The first storage bag 31 is a resin bag having flexibility such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polyurethane and the like. As the first storage bag 31, a bag having extremely low water permeability or no water permeability is used. The first accommodation bag 31 is formed with holes 31a and accommodates an infinite number of hollow glass spheres having a diameter of about 20 μm. A hollow glass sphere having a diameter of about 5 μm or more and 1,000 μm or less may be used. The hollow glass sphere can withstand a high water pressure of about 200 m to 10,000 m. The 1st accommodation bag 31 is a bag in which the hollow glass bulb | ball produced by the factory is enclosed.

  As the second storage bag 32, a bag made of cloth or the like having water permeability is used. The second storage bag 32 stores a plurality of first storage bags 31. The second storage bag 32 has an inlet portion 32a, and one end of a wire 33 such as a rope is inserted and fixed to the inlet portion 32a. The other end of the wire 33 opposite to the one end is attached to the container 2.

  In order to produce the buoyancy body 3, first, a plurality of first accommodation bags 31 in which countless hollow glass spheres produced in a factory are enclosed are accommodated in a second accommodation bag 32. And the hole 31a is formed in the 1st accommodation bag 31 of the state accommodated in the 2nd accommodation bag 32. As shown in FIG. Then, one end of a wire 33 such as a rope is fixed to the inlet portion 32a of the second storage bag 32, and the process is completed.

  By immersing the buoyant body 3 in seawater, the seawater enters the inside of the second accommodation bag 32 having water permeability. Further, the hollow glass sphere accommodated in the first accommodation bag 31 is diffused into the second accommodation bag 32 from the hole 31 a of the first accommodation bag 31. By these, between hollow glass spheres is filled with seawater, and it can suppress that hollow glass spheres contact. For this reason, when the buoyancy body 3 is immersed in seawater, it can suppress that an excessive pressure acts with respect to a hollow glass bulb | ball, and can prevent that a hollow glass bulb | ball bursts.

  The first storage bag 31 may be a water-soluble bag such as paper. At this time, by immersing the buoyant body 3 in seawater, the seawater enters the inside of the second accommodation bag 32 having water permeability. Further, the hollow glass sphere accommodated in the first accommodation bag 31 is diffused into the second accommodation bag 32 when the first accommodation bag 31 is melted or torn. By these, between hollow glass spheres is filled with seawater, and it can suppress that hollow glass spheres contact. For this reason, when the buoyancy body 3 is immersed in seawater, it can suppress that an excessive pressure acts with respect to a hollow glass bulb | ball, and can prevent that a hollow glass bulb | ball bursts.

  FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view mainly showing a first modification of the buoyancy body 3. The buoyancy body 3 has protrusions 34 such as needles and spines on the inner surface of the second storage bag 32. When the hole 31 a is formed in the first storage bag 31, a plurality of first storage bags 31 in which numerous factory-produced hollow glass spheres are enclosed are stored in the second storage bag 32. Thereby, a hole 31 a is formed in the first storage bag 31 by the protrusion 34 of the second storage bag 32. For this reason, the hole 31a can be formed easily.

  FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view mainly showing a second modification of the buoyancy body 3. The buoyancy body 3 may be connected to another buoyancy body 3 by a connecting portion 35 such as a string. Although illustration is omitted, the plurality of buoyancy bodies 3 according to the second modification may be attached to the container 2 so as to be wound around the container 2, for example.

  The weight body 4 has a specific gravity larger than that of seawater or lake water. For the weight body 4, for example, a member having a predetermined weight such as concrete such as a tetrapod, steel, or iron scrap is used.

  FIG. 7 is a schematic view mainly showing the separation mechanism 5. 8 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line DD of FIG. The separation mechanism 5 connects the container 2 and the weight body 4 so as to be detachable. The separation mechanism 5 includes a metal first member 51, a metal second member 52, and a power supply device 53 that supplies electricity.

  The first member 51 is a steel rod formed in a rod shape, a plate shape, or the like. The 1st member 51 has the 1st attaching part 51a to which the container 2 is attached, and the 2nd attaching part 51b to which the weight body 4 is attached. In the first member 51, a planned separation region 51c is formed between the first attachment portion 51a and the second attachment portion 51b.

  As shown in FIG. 8, the second member 52 is formed in an annular shape, and for example, a spring ring, a spring washer, or the like is used. The second member 52 is a member that is disposed around the first member 51 and can be expanded and contracted in the circumferential direction. The second member 52 is provided at a distance S from the planned separation region 51c.

  The power supply device 53 uses a battery for supplying electricity, the first member 51 is electrically connected to the anode side 53a, and the second member 52 is electrically connected to the cathode side 53b. The power supply device 53 is housed in a waterproof power supply box 59.

  The power supply device 53 may include a remote control unit that remotely controls the supply of electricity using a sonar or the like. Thus, the power supply device 53 can be remotely controlled to start the power supply device 53 by operating a controller that allows a user on land or sea to operate the remote control unit of the power supply device 53. Further, the power supply device 53 may be configured by a timer type or the like, and may be activated as time elapses.

  The separation mechanism 5 further includes an insulating member 54 for maintaining the distance S. For the insulating member 54, for example, a rubber elastic body or the like is used. The insulating member 54 is disposed at the interval S so that the second member 52 extends outward in the circumferential direction. Thereby, the force which tries to shrink the 2nd member 52 inside acts. For this reason, the second member 52 applies a pressing force to the first member 51 via the insulating member 54.

  The separation mechanism 5 is immersed in seawater. At this time, a current flows between the scheduled separation region 51 c of the first member 51 and the second member 52 by the power supply device 53 through seawater. As a result, the planned separation region 51c is forcibly corroded. As a result, the planned separation area 51c is gradually thinned. Finally, as shown in FIG. 9, the first member 51 is cut off in the planned separation region 51c.

  In addition, it is preferable that the anti-rust process is not given to the scheduled separation area 51c. Thereby, the planned separation area 51c is more easily corroded. For this reason, it can cut off more reliably in the planned separation region 51c. Moreover, it is preferable that the 1st attachment part 51a and the 2nd attachment part 51b are rust-proofed.

  Next, an example of the operation of the pressure processing system 1 according to the present embodiment will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 10 (a), the pressure processing system 1 starts from a state where it is transported in advance to a predetermined position on the sea by a ship 9, such as a ship or a trolley.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 10B, the pressure processing system 1 is submerged from the ship 9 into the sea. At this time, the pressure processing system 1 naturally settles toward the sea bottom G because the overall apparent specific gravity is larger than seawater. As a result of settling, the pressure processing system 1 is provided on the sea bottom G, and the object P is immersed at a predetermined water depth D of about 200 m to 10,000 m. Thereby, the low temperature and the high pressure can be applied to the object P. For this reason, the pressure processing system 1 can press-process the object P.

  And after predetermined time progress, as shown to Fig.11 (a), the separation mechanism 5 which connected the container 2 and the weight body 4 is cut | disconnected, and the container 2 is naturally floated.

  When the container 2 and the weight body 4 are separated by the separation mechanism 5, first, the user on the ship 9 controls the controller to activate the power supply device 53. By starting the power supply device 53, electricity is supplied to the first member 51 and the second member 52. At this time, a current flows between the planned separation region 51 c of the first member 51 and the second member 52 through seawater. Thereby, the planned separation area 51c is forcibly corroded, and the first member 51 is separated in the planned separation area 51c as shown in FIG. At this time, the pressure processing system 1 from which the weight body 4 is separated has an apparent specific gravity of the whole (mainly the housing body 2, the buoyancy body 3, and the separation mechanism 5 on the side attached to the housing body 2). About 0.9 and smaller than the specific gravity of seawater. For this reason, the container 2 is separated from the weight body 4 by the separation mechanism 5 and naturally floats in the seawater toward the seawater surface L (in the direction of arrow U in the figure) by the buoyancy of the buoyancy body 3. .

  And as shown in FIG.11 (b), the container 2 is surfaced to the sea level L, and the container 2 in which the target object P was accommodated by the ship 9 is collect | recovered. Thus, the pressing process of the object P by the pressing process system 1 is completed.

  According to this embodiment, the container 2 for housing the object P, the buoyancy body 3 for levitating the container 2 in the liquid, the weight body 4 having a specific gravity greater than seawater, and the container 2 And a separation mechanism 5 that detachably connects the weight body 4 to each other. Thereby, the container 2 is separated from the weight body 4 by the separation mechanism 5 and naturally floats in the seawater by the buoyancy of the buoyancy body 3. For this reason, it becomes possible to collect | recover the objects P immersed in seawater easily.

  According to the present embodiment, the hollow glass sphere is accommodated in the first accommodation bag 31. Thereby, when producing the buoyancy body 3, it is possible to prevent the hollow glass sphere of about 20 μm from being scattered in the air. Thereby, when producing the buoyancy body 3, it can prevent that an operator etc. suck | inhale a hollow glass bulb | ball, and can operate | work safely.

  According to the present embodiment, the buoyancy body 3 includes a first accommodation bag 31 in which a hollow glass sphere is accommodated and a hole is formed, and a second accommodation bag 32 in which the first accommodation bag 31 is accommodated. Have. By immersing the buoyant body 3 in seawater, the seawater enters the inside of the second permeable bag 32 having water permeability. Further, the hollow glass sphere accommodated in the first accommodation bag 31 is diffused into the second accommodation bag 32 from the hole 31 a of the first accommodation bag 31. By these, between hollow glass spheres is filled with seawater, and it can suppress that hollow glass spheres contact. For this reason, it can suppress that an excessive pressure acts on a hollow glass bulb | ball, and can prevent that a hollow glass bulb | ball bursts. For this reason, since buoyancy is ensured by the air in the hollow glass sphere, the buoyancy of the buoyancy body 3 as a whole can also be ensured.

  According to this embodiment, the weight body 4 having a larger specific gravity than seawater is provided. Thereby, the target object P can be immersed and hold | maintained in the state stabilized on the seabed. For this reason, it becomes possible to prevent the target P from being washed away by an ocean current or the like.

  According to this embodiment, in the power supply device 53, the first member 51 is electrically connected to the anode side 53a, and the second member 52 is electrically connected to the cathode side 53b. Thereby, the 1st member 51 can be cut off in the planned separation area 51c when the power supply device 53 supplies electricity. For this reason, it becomes possible to make it easy to control the time or the number of days for collecting the object P immersed in seawater.

  According to the present embodiment, the separation mechanism 5 further includes an insulating member 54 for maintaining the interval S, and the second member 52 applies a pressing force to the first member 51 via the insulating member 54. To be. Thereby, the corrosion area | region of the separation plan area | region 51c can be pressed reliably. For this reason, it can cut off more reliably in the planned separation region 51c.

  According to this embodiment, it is preferable that the anti-rust treatment is not performed on the planned separation region 51c. Thereby, the planned separation area 51c is more easily corroded. For this reason, it can cut off more reliably in the planned separation region 51c.

  According to this embodiment, the plurality of objects P and the powder having a diameter smaller than that of the object P are sealed, and the sealed container Q is further flexible. As a result, when pressure acts on the object P via the flexible sealed container Q, the powder is arranged in the gaps between the plurality of objects P, and excessive pressure acts on the object P. Can be prevented.

  According to the present embodiment, the annular second member 52 is disposed so as to surround the first member 51. As a result, the corrosion of the first member 51 can be promoted uniformly from the circumferential direction of the second member 52.

  Next, a first modification of the separation mechanism 5 will be described. FIG. 12 is a schematic diagram illustrating a first modification of the separation mechanism 5.

  The separation mechanism 5 includes a metal first member 51, a metal second member 52, and a power supply device 53 that supplies electricity.

  The second member 52 is provided on both sides of the plate-like first member 51. The second member 52 is formed by using a metal plate or the like and bending the distal end portion 52a. An insulator 57 such as a rubber elastic body is provided between the first member 51 and the base end portion 52b of the second member 52, and the base end portion 52b of the second member 52 is interposed via the insulator 57. The first member 51 is fixed by a fixing member such as a bolt and nut. Thereby, the front-end | tip part 52a of the 2nd member 52 which consists of metal plates gives a pressing force with respect to the 1st member 51 via the insulating member 54. FIG.

  The separation mechanism 5 is immersed in seawater. At this time, a current flows between the scheduled separation region 51 c of the first member 51 and the second member 52 by the power supply device 53 through seawater. Thereby, the planned separation area 51c is forcibly corroded, and the first member 51 is separated in the planned separation area 51c. At this time, the container 2 is separated from the weight body 4 by the separation mechanism 5 and naturally floats in the seawater by the buoyancy of the buoyancy body 3.

  According to the present embodiment, the second member 52 is provided on both sides of the first member 51. Thereby, the corrosion area | region of the separation plan area | region 51c can be pressed more reliably. For this reason, it can cut off more reliably in the planned separation region 51c.

  Next, a second modification of the separation mechanism 5 will be described. FIG. 13 is a schematic diagram illustrating a second modification of the separation mechanism 5.

  The separation mechanism 5 includes a first member 51 made of metal and a second member 52 made of metal that is more noble than the first member 51. In the separation mechanism 5, the power supply device 53 is omitted.

  The first member 51 has a first attachment portion 51a to which the container 2 is attached and a second attachment portion 51b to which the weight body 4 is attached, and is cut between the first attachment portion 51a and the second attachment portion 51b. A planned separation area 51c is formed. The second member 52 is provided to be separated from the planned separation region 51c.

  The separation mechanism 5 is immersed in seawater. At this time, a current flows between the planned separation region 51 c of the first member 51 and the second member 52 through seawater. Thereby, the planned separation area 51c is corroded, and the first member 51 is separated in the planned separation area 51c. At this time, the container 2 is separated from the weight body 4 by the separation mechanism 5 and naturally floats in the seawater by the buoyancy of the buoyancy body 3.

  According to the present embodiment, the separation mechanism 5 has the first member 51 made of metal and the second member 52 made of metal that is more noble than the first member 51, and the first member 51 is accommodated. The first attachment portion 51a to which the body 2 is attached and the second attachment portion 51b to which the weight body 4 is attached, and a planned separation region 51c is formed between the first attachment portion 51a and the second attachment portion 51b. The second member 52 is provided with a space S from the planned separation region 51c. Thereby, the first member 51 can be separated in the planned separation area 51c after a predetermined time has elapsed. For this reason, it becomes possible to collect | recover the target object P immersed in the sea still more easily.

  Next, a third modification of the separation mechanism 5 will be described. FIG. 14 is a schematic diagram illustrating a third modification of the separation mechanism 5.

  The separation mechanism 5 includes a first metal member 51, a second metal member 52, and a power supply device 53 that supplies electricity. In the power supply device 53, the first member 51 is electrically connected to the anode side 53a, and the second member 52 is electrically connected to the cathode side 53b.

  The separation mechanism 5 further includes an insulating enclosure 55 in which the second member 52 and at least the planned separation region 51c are accommodated. For the enclosure 55, for example, an insulating container such as a plastic container is used.

For this reason, it becomes possible to make it easy to control the time for collecting the object P immersed in seawater.

  According to this embodiment, the enclosure 55 is filled with the electrolytic solution. Thereby, it is possible to easily cause corrosion of the planned separation region 51c. For this reason, it can cut off more reliably in the planned separation region 51c.

  Next, a fourth modification and a fifth modification of the separation mechanism 5 will be described. FIG. 15 is a schematic diagram illustrating a fourth modification of the separation mechanism 5. FIG. 16 is a schematic diagram illustrating a fifth modification of the separation mechanism 5.

  The separation mechanism 5 includes a rod-shaped first member 151 having heat melting property, a second member 152 having electrothermal property, and a power supply device 53 that supplies current to the second member 152. The first member 151 includes a first attachment portion 152a to which the container 2 is attached and a second attachment portion 152b to which the weight body 4 is attached. A planned separation area 151c is formed between the first attachment portion 151a and the second attachment portion 151b. The power supply device 53 is housed in a waterproof power supply box 59. The second member 152 is waterproofed so that it can be thermally melted in seawater described later.

  As shown in FIG. 15, the second member 152 is provided in the planned separation area 151c. The second member 152 is wound around the planned separation area 151c. As shown in FIG. 16, the second member 152 may be incorporated in the planned separation area 151c.

  The separation mechanism 5 is immersed in seawater. At this time, the power supply device 53 is activated to supply electricity to the second member 152, whereby the second member 152 is heated. Thereby, the planned separation area 151c of the first member 151 having heat melting property is thermally melted, and the first member 151 is separated in the planned separation area 151c. At this time, the container 2 is separated from the weight body 4 by the separation mechanism 5 and naturally floats in the seawater by the buoyancy of the buoyancy body 3.

  According to this embodiment, it has the rod-shaped 1st member 151 which has heat melting property, the 2nd member 152 which has electrothermal property, and the power supply device 53 which supplies an electric current to the 2nd member 152, 1st The member 151 includes a first attachment portion 151a to which the container 2 is attached and a second attachment portion 151b to which the weight body 4 is attached, and is scheduled to be separated between the first attachment portion 152a and the second attachment portion 152b. A region 51c is formed, and the second member 152 is wound around the planned separation region 51c. Thereby, according to the electric current of the power supply device 53 to supply, the 1st member 51 can be cut off in the planned separation area 51c after a predetermined time has elapsed. For this reason, it becomes possible to make it easy to control the time for collecting the object P immersed in seawater.

  Next, a sixth modification of the separation mechanism 5 will be described. FIG. 17 is a schematic diagram illustrating a sixth modification of the separation mechanism 5.

  The separation mechanism 5 connects the first attachment portion 251 to which the container 2 is attached, the second attachment portion 251b to which the weight body 4 is attached, the first attachment portion 251a and the second attachment portion 251b into seawater. And a soluble body 253 that melts.

  The first mounting portion 251a is formed in, for example, a resin bolt shape, and a fusible body 253 having a predetermined size is provided on the head 251c.

  The second attachment portion 251b is made of a resin member and has a locking portion 251d that locks the fusible body 253.

  The soluble body 253 is water-soluble and has a predetermined shape. As the soluble body 253, for example, rock sugar, salt, biodegradable plastic that dissolves in seawater, a water-soluble adhesive, or the like is used.

  FIG. 18 is a schematic diagram illustrating a sixth modification of the separation mechanism 5 in a separated state. The separation mechanism 5 is immersed in seawater. With the passage of time, the soluble body 253 that has been locked to the locking portion 252d is gradually dissolved in seawater. When the fusible body 253 is melted, the locking of the locking portion 252d is released, and the connected first mounting portion 251a and the second mounting portion 251b are separated. As a result, the container 2 naturally floats in the seawater due to the buoyancy of the buoyancy body 3. For this reason, it becomes possible to collect | recover the objects P immersed in seawater easily.

  According to the present embodiment, the separation mechanism 5 includes the first attachment portion 251a to which the container 2 is attached, the second attachment portion 251b to which the weight body 4 is attached, the first attachment portion 251a and the second attachment portion 251b. And a soluble body 253 that dissolves in seawater. Thereby, the soluble body 253 will melt | dissolve in seawater gradually with progress of time. And the 1st attachment part 251a and the 2nd attachment part 252b which were connected are cut away by the meltable body 253 melting. As a result, the container 2 naturally floats in the seawater. For this reason, it becomes possible to collect | recover the objects P immersed in seawater easily.

  In addition, although illustration is abbreviate | omitted, the separating mechanism 5 may have an openable / closable open / close box surrounding the fusible body 253. This open / close box is configured to be openable / closable by the user's control or by the passage of time such as a timer type. In the case of having such an open / close box, when immersed in seawater, the soluble body 253 is surrounded by the closed open / close box, and does not come into contact with the seawater, so that the soluble body 253 does not melt out. And after predetermined time progress, this open / close box is opened by user control, for example. Thereby, the soluble body 253 contacts seawater and the soluble body 253 begins to melt in seawater. And the 1st attachment part 251a and the 2nd attachment part 252b which were connected are cut away by the meltable body 253 melting. As a result, the container 2 naturally floats in the seawater. For this reason, when it has an opening-and-closing box, it becomes possible to make it easy to control the time which collects the target object P immersed in seawater.

  Next, a seventh modification of the separation mechanism 5 will be described. FIG. 19 is a schematic diagram illustrating a seventh modification of the separation mechanism 5.

  The separation mechanism 5 includes a first member 351 that is a metal rod-shaped member, a second member 352 that is a coil wound around the first member 351, a power supply device 53 that supplies electricity to the second member 352, and a permanent member. A third member 353 that is a magnet.

  For the first member 351, for example, an iron core is used. As for the 1st member 351, the container 2 is attached to the one end part 351a side, and the 3rd member 354 is attached to the other end part 351b side. The first member 351 has an enlarged diameter portion 351c having a diameter D2 larger than the diameter D1 of the first member 351 at the other end portion 351b, and the third member 353 is attached via the enlarged diameter portion 351c. . An iron plate or the like may be used for the enlarged diameter portion 351c.

  In the power supply device 53, one end of the second member 352 is attached to the anode side 53a, and the other end of the second member 352 is attached to the anode side 53a.

  The weight member 4 is attached to the third member 353.

  The separation mechanism 5 is immersed in seawater. At this time, the power supply device 53 is activated and immersed in seawater. As a result, electricity is supplied to the second member, and a magnetic force directed in the axial direction of the first member 351 is generated. For this reason, the other end 351b side of the metal first member 351 can be connected to the third member 353 that is a permanent magnet.

  FIG. 20 is a schematic diagram illustrating a seventh modification of the separation mechanism 5 in a separated state. After a predetermined time elapses, the power supply device 53 is stopped. Thereby, the magnetic force which goes to the axial direction of the 1st member 351 reduces or it does not act. For this reason, the other end 351b side of the metal first member 351 and the third member 353 that is a permanent magnet are separated. At this time, the container 2 is separated from the weight body 4 by the separation mechanism 5 and naturally floats in the seawater in the direction of the arrow U in the figure by the buoyancy of the buoyancy body 3.

  According to the present embodiment, the separation mechanism 5 supplies electricity to the first member 351 that is a metal rod-shaped member, the second member 352 that is a coil wound around the first member 351, and the second member 352. Power supply device 53 and a third member 353 that is a permanent magnet. The first member 351 has the housing 2 attached to one end 351a side and the third member 353 attached to the other end 352b side. The weight member 4 is attached to the third member 353. Thereby, according to the electric current of the power supply device 53 to supply, the other end part 351b side of the metal 1st member 351 and the 3rd member 353 which is a permanent magnet can be cut off after predetermined time progress. For this reason, it becomes possible to make it easy to control the time for collecting the object P immersed in seawater.

  Next, a third modification of the buoyancy body 3 will be described. FIG. 21 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing a third modification of the buoyancy body 3.

  The buoyancy body 3 is made of a hollow glass sphere 131 having a diameter of about 500 mm, and has a covering buffer material 132 that covers the hollow glass sphere 131. For example, a resin such as polyester, polypropylene, nylon, polyethylene, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinylidene chloride, polyethylene terephthalate, ethylene vinyl alcohol, or polyvinyl alcohol is used as the covering buffer material 132. The buoyancy body 3 is attached to the container 2 with the covering cushioning material 132 via the wire 33.

  According to this embodiment, the buoyancy body 3 has the covering cushioning material 132 that covers the hollow glass sphere 131. Thereby, even if an external force acts on the buoyancy body 3, the external force is buffered by the covering cushioning material 132, and the hollow glass sphere 131 can be prevented from rupturing. For this reason, since the buoyancy is secured by the air in the hollow glass sphere 131, the buoyancy of the buoyancy body 3 as a whole can also be secured.

  Next, a fourth modification of the buoyancy body 3 will be described. FIG. 22 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing a fourth modification of the buoyancy body 3.

  The buoyancy body 3 has a water-permeable storage bag 36. The storage bag 36 stores a plurality of hollow glass spheres and is filled with a liquid between the plurality of hollow glass spheres.

  As the storage bag 36, a bag made of cloth or the like having water permeability is used. The accommodation bag 36 contains a plurality of hollow glass balls. As the hollow glass sphere, for example, those having a diameter of about 5 μm or more and 1,000 μm or less are used. The storage bag 36 is formed with an inlet portion 36a, and one end of a wire 33 such as a rope is inserted and fixed to the inlet portion 36a. The other end of the wire 33 opposite to the one end is attached to the container 2. The storage bag 36 is filled with a liquid such as water or seawater between a plurality of hollow glass balls.

  According to the present embodiment, the buoyancy body 3 has a water-permeable storage bag 36, and the storage bag 36 stores a plurality of hollow glass spheres and fills a space between the plurality of hollow glass spheres with a liquid. . Thereby, it can suppress that an excessive pressure acts with respect to a hollow glass bulb | ball, and can prevent that a hollow glass bulb | ball bursts. For this reason, since buoyancy is ensured by the air in the hollow glass sphere, the buoyancy of the buoyancy body 3 as a whole can also be ensured.

  In addition, according to the present embodiment, since the plurality of hollow glass spheres are accommodated in the single accommodation bag 36 filled with the liquid, it is difficult to collect air in the accommodation bag 36. For this reason, it can suppress more reliably that an excessive pressure acts on a hollow glass bulb | ball, and can prevent that a hollow glass bulb | ball bursts. For this reason, since the buoyancy is ensured by the air in the hollow glass sphere, the buoyancy of the buoyancy body 3 as a whole can be ensured more reliably.

  Next, a modification of the pressure processing system 1 according to the first embodiment will be described. FIG. 23 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing a modification of the pressure processing system 1 according to the first embodiment.

  The buoyancy body 3 includes a connecting portion 38 that is coupled to the container 2 so that the buoyancy body 3 and the container 2 come into contact with each other. The connection portion 38 is made of a member such as a string or a rope, and is disposed so as to surround the upper side, the side surface, and the lower side of the buoyancy body 3.

  According to this modification, the buoyancy body 3 includes the connecting portion 38 that is coupled to the container 2 so that the buoyancy body 3 and the container 2 come into contact with each other. Thereby, the buoyancy body 3 and the container 2 are brought into contact with each other without being separated, and the buoyancy body 3 can be firmly fixed to the container 2. For this reason, when the pressure processing system 1 is allowed to settle or float, it can be performed in a stable state.

The control mechanism 7 includes an adjustment control unit 75 that controls adjustment by the angle adjustment unit 27. The adjustment control unit 75 can communicate with the angle adjustment unit 27 and transmits a signal for adjusting the angle of the fin 28 to the angle adjustment unit 27. The angle adjustment unit 27 adjusts the angle of the fin 28 based on the signal transmitted from the adjustment control unit 75.

  The camera 8 can take an image of the surrounding environment. The user transmits and receives a signal for controlling the adjustment control unit 75 of the control mechanism 7 from a controller that can communicate with the control mechanism 7 while viewing the image taken by the camera 8. The user can grasp the state of the sea bottom G such as the presence or absence of the pressure processing system 1 already immersed in the sea bottom G by the camera 8. Further, the user can grasp the state of the seawater surface such as the presence or absence of a ship floating on the seawater surface by the camera 8.

  According to this modification, it further has the fin 28 provided in the container 2, and the angle adjustment part 27 which adjusts the angle with respect to the up-down direction of the fin 28 to arbitrary angles. Thus, the direction of the fins 28 can be controlled when the pressure processing system 1 is settling or floating. For this reason, the direction which makes the pressurization system 1 sink in the direction of arrow A in the figure and the direction which makes it float can be controlled, and the position which makes it settle and the position which makes it float can be adjusted.

  In FIG. 23, the fin 28 and the angle adjustment unit 27 have been described as being provided in the container 2. However, in the present invention, the fin 28 and the angle adjustment unit 27 include the buoyancy body 3, the weight body 4, and the separation body. It may be provided in the mechanism 5 or the like. At this time, it is preferable that the fin 28 and the angle adjustment unit 27 are provided in the buoyancy body 3 and the separation mechanism 5. When the fin 28 and the angle adjusting unit 27 are provided in the buoyancy body 3 and the separation mechanism 5, as in the case of being provided in the container 2, 28 directions can be controlled. For this reason, the position which makes the pressurization processing system 1 sink or the position which makes it float can be adjusted.

(Second Embodiment)
Next, the pressure processing system 1 according to the second embodiment will be described. In the pressure processing system 1 according to the second embodiment, as shown in FIG. 24 (a), the separation mechanism 5 is omitted, and the weight body 4 is a soluble body 41 that is soluble in seawater. Mainly different from the first embodiment. Hereinafter, the description of the same configuration as in the first embodiment will be omitted as appropriate.

It is. As shown in FIG. 24 (a), the pressure processing system 1 starts from a state where it is transported in advance to a predetermined position on the sea by a ship 9, such as a ship or a trolley.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 24B, the pressure processing system 1 is submerged from the ship 9 into the sea. At this time, the pressure processing system 1 naturally settles toward the sea bottom G because the overall apparent specific gravity is larger than seawater. As a result of settling, the pressure processing system 1 is provided on the sea bottom G, and the object P is immersed at a predetermined water depth D of about 200 m to 10,000 m. Thereby, the low temperature and the high pressure can be applied to the object P. For this reason, the pressure processing system 1 can press-process the object P.

FIG. 25A is a schematic diagram showing the pressure processing system according to the second embodiment during levitation, and FIG. 25B is a schematic diagram showing the pressure processing system according to the second embodiment that is levitated. It is. And after predetermined time progress, as shown to Fig.25 (a), the soluble body 41 will melt | dissolve in seawater. At this time, the apparent specific gravity of the entire pressure processing system 1 (mainly the container 2, the buoyancy body 3, and the soluble body 41 that remains undissolved) is smaller than the specific gravity of seawater. For this reason, the container 2 naturally floats in the seawater toward the seawater surface L (in the direction of arrow U in the figure) by the buoyancy of the buoyancy body 3.

  And as shown in FIG.25 (b), the container 2 is surfaced to the sea level L, and the container 2 in which the target object P was accommodated by the ship 9 is collect | recovered. Thus, the pressing process of the object P by the pressing process system 1 is completed.

The weight body 4 is a soluble body 41 that dissolves in seawater. Thereby, the container 2 naturally floats in the seawater by the buoyancy of the buoyancy body 3 when the soluble body 41 is dissolved in the seawater. For this reason, it becomes possible to collect | recover the objects P immersed in seawater easily.

(Third embodiment)
Next, the pressure processing system 1 according to the third embodiment will be described. The pressure processing system 1 according to the third embodiment is mainly different from the first embodiment in that it further includes a thrust mechanism 6 and a control mechanism 7. The description of the same configuration as in the first embodiment will be omitted as appropriate.

  The thrust mechanism 6 generates thrust in water, and a rotatable motor screw or the like is used. The thrust mechanism 6 can have any direction in which thrust is generated, and fins or the like may be provided. The thrust mechanism 6 is provided in the container 2 and moves the container 2 by thrust. The thrust mechanism 6 may be provided on the buoyancy body 3.

  The control mechanism 7 includes a base point part 71, a base point position acquisition part 72, an object position acquisition part 73, and a control part 74.

  The base point portion 71 is provided in the vicinity of the sea surface. For example, a buoy or a light buoy that floats in the vicinity of the sea surface is used. The base part 71 is provided with a notch or the like, and is fixed at a predetermined position on the sea. The base point portion 71 may be connected to the weight body 4. The base point portion 71 may be provided on the coastal land.

  The base position acquisition unit 72 acquires position information of the base point 71. The base position acquisition unit 72 is an electronic device that can acquire position information such as GPS (Global Positioning System). The base point position acquisition unit 72 can transmit and receive information to and from other electronic devices, and transmits the acquired position information of the base point unit 71 to the control unit 74.

  The object position acquisition unit 73 acquires position information of the object P. The object position acquisition unit 73 uses an electronic device that can acquire position information such as GPS. The object position acquisition unit 73 is provided in the container 2 or the buoyancy body 3. The object position acquisition unit 73 provided in the container 2 or the buoyancy body 3 is acquired as position information of the object P. The base position acquisition unit 72 can transmit and receive information to and from other electronic devices, and transmits the acquired position information of the object P to the control unit 74.

  The object position acquisition unit 73 may measure the distance from the sound wave emitted to the base point 71 to the base point 71. Even if the object position acquisition unit 73 acquires the position information of the object P based on the measured distance to the base point part 71 and the position information of the base point part 71 acquired by the base point position acquisition part 72. Good.

  Based on the position information of the base point 71 transmitted by the base position acquisition unit 72 and the position information of the target P transmitted by the target position acquisition unit 73, the control unit 74 determines that the container 2 is the base point. The thrust mechanism 6 is controlled to move toward 71.

  Next, an example of the operation of the third embodiment will be described.

  The pressure processing system 1 includes a container 2 for housing the object P, a buoyancy body 3 for floating the container 2 in a liquid, a weight body 4 having a specific gravity greater than seawater, and a container 2. And a separation mechanism 5 that detachably connects the weight body 4 to each other. Thereby, the container 2 is separated from the weight body 4 by the separation mechanism 5 and naturally floats in the seawater by the buoyancy of the buoyancy body 3.

  The container 2 and the weight body 4 are separated by the separation mechanism 5 and floated to the vicinity of the sea level L. At this time, as shown in FIG. 26, the container 2 may be swept away by a sea current or the like and may float on the sea surface L away from the base point portion 71.

  In the control mechanism 7, the position information of the base point 71 is acquired by the base position acquisition unit 72 and the position information of the target P is acquired by the target position acquisition unit 73. The control mechanism 7 accommodates the control unit 74 based on the position information of the base point part 71 transmitted by the base point position acquisition part 72 and the position information of the object P transmitted by the object position acquisition part 73. The thrust mechanism 6 is controlled so that the body 2 moves toward the base portion 71. Thereby, after the container 2 is levitated, the container 2 can be moved to the base point part 71 in the arrow W direction in the figure.

  In the above-described example, the example in which the thrust mechanism 6 is controlled after the container 2 has reached the vicinity of the sea level L has been described. In the present invention, control of the thrust mechanism 6 may be performed while the container 2 is levitating in seawater as shown in FIG. Thereby, while the container 2 is levitated, the container 2 can be moved to the base 71 in the direction of arrow T in the figure, and the object P can be easily collected.

  According to this embodiment, in the control mechanism 7, the control unit 74 has the position information of the base point 71 transmitted by the base position acquisition unit 72 and the position information of the target P transmitted by the target position acquisition unit 73. Based on the above, the thrust mechanism 6 is controlled so that the container 2 moves toward the base portion 71. Thereby, after the container 2 is levitated, or while the container 2 is levitated, the container 2 can be moved to the base point portion 71 in the arrow W direction in the figure or in the arrow T direction in the figure. For this reason, even if the container 2 is washed away under the influence of the ocean current, the object P can be easily collected without losing sight of the container 2.
