Description

{Floating Device for Water Level Maintain}

The present invention relates to an assembly providing buoyancy that maintains water depth, and more particularly, to a buoyant buoyancy structure that provides buoyancy to a main rope connected to a submerged structure while connecting floating structures floated on a water surface, And is connected to the main rope so as to stably maintain the water depth position of the submerged submergence structure below the water surface.

In general, the aquaculture industry in the ocean has been producing caged seaweeds, abalones, oysters, sea urchins and shellfishes as well as various fishes in recent years.

These marine aquaculture industries are increasing in number of farms and sea pastures with the intention of reducing uncertainty and safer production of marine products by shifting from fishery through hunting to farming through farming, because the yield is uncertain due to the decrease of fishery resources.

In the abovementioned marine aquaculture industry, fishing grounds such as a hanging net, a shelter, and an artificial house are kept in the water to keep it at a certain depth, or a buoyancy body such as a buoy or a buoy is used to float on the sea surface.

Most of these buoyant bodies are made of polystyrene materials having good buoyancy in ball form or in the form of styrofoam balls.

As shown in Figs. 12A and 12B, a conventional farm has a floating structure 1 composed of a buoyancy body 1a, and a floating structure 1 floated on the sea surface is connected to a plurality of connecting ropes 4 via a plurality of connecting ropes 4 So that the submersible structure 3 such as a fishing rod is submerged below the water surface while the main rope 2 is fixedly installed at a constant interval on the sea surface.

In addition, submerged structures that can be cultivated for cultivating objects such as seaweeds and kelp may be submerged under the surface of the connecting rope (4) connected to floating structure (1) floating on the sea surface.

However, since the weight of the submerged structure gradually increases when a cultured object such as oysters, abalone, seaweed, and sea bream gradually grows in the submerged structure 3, the weight of the submerged structure gradually increases, (2) is submerged below the sea level, and the submerged location of the optimized submerged structure is shifted downward to change its position.

As a result, when the diving position of the optimized submergence structure (3) is moved below the water depth, the culture conditions such as the sea water temperature and the amount of sunshine supplied to the culturing object in the diving structure are changed, And it was a major cause of lowered yield.

Accordingly, in order to stably maintain the growth condition of the cultured object by keeping the optimal diving position at a constant level and to keep the main rope from sinking below the sea level, it is necessary to adjust the diving position of the diving structure As the total weight increases, buoyant bodies are additionally installed on the floating structure.

However, the additional installation work of the buoyant body is very cumbersome and dangerous because the worker has to perform manual operation at sea, which not only increases the risk of safety accidents, but also causes worker avoidance of work.

In addition, when the connecting rope connected to the diving structure is connected to the middle of the length of the main roof, the amount of deflection of the main rope below the sea level is relatively large, so that the vertical position of the diving structure is largely changed, The number of additional installations of the worker is increased and the work load of the worker is increased.

In addition, at the harvesting time of the aquaculture object, the submerged structures submerged at a certain depth below the water surface must be lifted to the surface of the water, and it is very difficult for the worker to lift and lift the heavy submersible structure.

Also, to include an element does not exclude other elements unless specifically stated otherwise, but may also include other elements.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the buoyancy device 100 for holding water according to the first embodiment of the present invention includes a float structure (not shown) including a container assembly 110 and a connection body 130, (1) or the main rope (2) via the connecting rope (4) by providing buoyancy to the main rope (2) connected to the main rope A buoyant force is applied to the main rope 2 so as to maintain a depth position of a submerged structure such as a fishing boat submerged at a certain depth below the water surface and buoyancy is applied to the connecting rope 2 to facilitate the lifting work of the diving structure .

The container assembly 110 connects the plurality of containers 111 longitudinally to each other to provide buoyancy that floats on the water.

Such a container 111 is provided with an injection port 112 through which gas such as air is injected from the outside at one end so as to have a buoyancy for floatation from the water surface and is made of a plastic resin material Cylindrical or polygonal receptors.

The container 111 can be selectively used with a container having a small outer diameter of the inlet 112 as an inlet for injecting gas and a relatively large outer diameter of the remaining cylindrical body forming an inner space filled with gas have.

Here, the container 111, which is filled with gas and generates buoyancy, can be used as it is without being processed separately as a PET bottle, which is a plastic container which is discarded in a single use.

The injection port 112 opened at one end of the container 111 may be sealed by a separate stopper 113 so as to prevent leakage of the gas filled in the container.

The pair of containers 111 adjacent to each other can be connected to each other via a connection pipe 115 having a predetermined length opened at both ends.

In other words, a pair of adjacent containers 111 can be integrally connected to each other by correspondingly inserting the closed end of the container into both open ends of the connection pipe 115, and the inner diameter of the connection pipe 115 corresponds to Side body of the container 111 to be inserted, and they are forced to be interfered with each other, thereby making it difficult to separate and release the containers after connection.

The connection pipe 115 may be manufactured separately considering the outer diameter of the container to be connected to each other. However, the connection pipe 115 is not limited thereto and may be used by cutting the middle of the other container of the same type as the container to be connected to each other.

In addition, an adhesive for generating an adhesive fixing force may be applied between the inner surface of the connecting pipe and the outer surface of the container, and between the sealed end of the container facing each other in the connecting pipe, have.

At this time, the connection pipe 115 may be made of a transparent material so that the connection state of the corresponding inserted containers can be visually confirmed from the outside, but is not limited thereto, and may be made of opaque or translucent material.

The main body of the main rope 2 is located on the water surface so that the main rope 2 is prevented from falling down below the water surface while the weight of the submerged structure 3 is gradually increased, A connecting rope 4 submerged below the water surface so as to facilitate the lifting work of the diving structure 3 for harvesting a cultured object and the container assembly 110 connected to the container assembly 110, They are connected to each other.

The connection member 130 includes a connection plate 131 formed with a first connection hole 132 through which the plug 113 is inserted and engaged with the injection port 112, And a first rope connecting line 134 having a predetermined length at which the other end is connected to the main rope 2 at one end thereof with a latching piece 134a which is engaged with the second latching hole 133 formed at the other end thereof.

The connecting plate 131 is elastically deformed when it enters the one end of the stopper 113 having an outer diameter larger than the inner diameter of the first stopping hole 132, and then forms an elastic piece that is returned to generate a fastening force And a plurality of slits (132a) formed so as to be cut outwardly from the inner circumferential surface of the first engaging hole.

The engaging piece 134a may be formed of a plate having a width smaller than or equal to the maximum inner diameter of the second latching hole 133 and a length greater than the maximum inner diameter of the second latching hole.

In this case, the operation of connecting the first rope connecting line 134 and the connecting plate 131 is performed by positioning the latching piece 134a in the longitudinal direction so as to be parallel to the first rope connecting line 134, When the engaging piece 134a is switched to be positioned at a substantially right angle with the first rope connecting line 134, the engaging piece 134a and the second engaging hole 133 are engaged with each other, The first rope connecting line 134 is hooked and connected to the second latching hole 133 of the connecting plate 131.

The first rope connecting rod 134 is connected to the main rope 2 so that the other end of the first rope connecting rod 134 is movable along the main rope 2. However, The main rope 2 is connected to the main rope 2 in a bundled state so as to be difficult to move along the main rope 2.

The total length of the connection member 130 including the connection plate 131 and the first rope connection line 134 is shortened so that the container assembly 110 can be disposed as close as possible to the main rope or connection rope desirable.

Accordingly, both ends of the container assembly 110 are constrained so as to be arranged close to and in parallel with the main rope 2 located on the water surface via the connecting body 130, thereby imparting a levitation force to the main rope 2 It is possible to increase buoyancy without adding a buoyancy structure to the floating structure 1 so that even if the total weight of the diving structure 3 connected to the main rope 2 via the connecting rope 4 increases, The position of the submerged submerged structure can be stably maintained without changing.

In addition, both ends of the container assembly 110 are submerged and restrained so as to be arranged in parallel with the connecting ropes 4 located below the water surface via the connecting body 130, It is possible to more easily perform lifting work for lifting up the submersible structure 3 which is a heavy object.

At this time, the buoyancy of the container assembly 110 should be set in advance so as to be diving below the water surface along with the connection rope, taking into consideration the weight of the submerged structure to be submerged.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the buoyancy device for water depth maintenance 100a according to the second embodiment of the present invention includes a container assembly 110 and a connector 130 similar to the first embodiment.

As in the first embodiment, the pair of containers 111 adjacent to each other are provided with a constant And the sealing ends on the opposite sides of the injection port may be connected to face each other through the connection pipe 115 having the same length and the same members are denoted by the same reference numerals and the detailed description will be omitted.

A pair of fixing ropes 135 of the connection body 130 are fixed to both ends of the container assembly 110 so as to expose the injection port to the front end of the container corresponding to the injection port 112, And a close-contact pipe 117, respectively.

The connection pipe 117 may be separately manufactured in consideration of the outer diameter of the container 111 to be coupled in the same manner as the connection pipe 115 described later. However, the connection pipe 117 is not limited to this, It can be used by partially cutting the tip.

At this time, the connection pipe (115) and the close-contact pipe (117) can be inserted so that at least two or more layers are laminated on the front and outer surfaces of the container. When the tip of another container is partially cut, It is preferable to finish the cut portion so as not to be split or torn.

The connecting body 130 connects the container assembly 110 and the main rope 2 or connects the container assembly 110 and the connecting rope 4 to each other. A first fixed rope 135 having a fixed length in which an intermediate portion of the length is interposed between the inner surface of the connecting pipe 115 and the outer surface of the pair of containers 111, And a second rope connecting line 136 having a predetermined length and connected to the main rope 2 or the connecting rope 4, respectively.

The first fixing rope 135 may be provided at a position corresponding to both ends of the container assembly 110. The first fixing rope 135 may be provided at a front end of a pair of containers corresponding to both ends of the container assembly 110, And the outer surface of the pair of containers 111, and the outer surface of the pair of containers 111 is interposed between the inner surface of the inner tube 115 and the outer surface of the pair of containers 111. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, A middle portion of the length can be selectively interposed between the inner surface of the coupling pipe 115 or each inner surface of the tightening pipe 117 and each outer surface of the pair of containers 111 and can be tightly fixed.

And a middle portion between the inner surfaces of the connection pipe 115 and the close-contact pipe 117 and each outer surface of the pair of containers 111 is interposed and fixed.

Although the first fixed rope 135 has been described as being provided with a closed loop type circular protrusion at its both ends to form a locking ring 135a connected to the second rope connecting rod 136, Shaped rope having hooks 135a connected to the second rope connecting rods 136 at both ends thereof.

The second rope connecting line 136 has a latching piece 136a at one end which is engaged with the latching ring 135a formed at both ends of the first fixing rope 135. [

The latching piece 136a may be formed of a plate having a width smaller than or equal to the maximum inner diameter of the latching ring 135a and a length larger than the maximum inner diameter of the latching ring.

The operation of connecting the both ends of the second rope connecting line 136 and the first stationary rope 135 is performed by positioning the engaging piece 136a in the longitudinal direction so as to be parallel to the second rope connecting line 136, When the engaging piece 136a is turned so as to be substantially perpendicular to the second rope connecting line 136, the engaging piece 136a is engaged with the engaging loop 135a, The second rope connecting rod 136 is hooked to the hooking ring 135a of the first fixing rope 135. As shown in FIG.

In this case, the second rope connecting rod 136 is connected to the main rope 2 so that the other end of the second rope connecting rod 136 can be moved along the main rope 2 like the first rope connecting rod. However, The main rope 2 may be connected to the main rope 2 so as to be difficult to move, or may be separated from the main rope 2 by a separate length.

The entire length of the connection member 130 including the first fixed rope 135 and the second rope connection line 136 is shortened so that the container assembly 110 can be disposed as close as possible to the main rope or the connection rope .

As a result, both ends of the container assembly 110 are constrained so as to be arranged close to and in parallel with the main rope 2 via the connecting body 130 in the same manner as in the first embodiment, The total weight of the submerged structure 3 connected to the main rope 2 via the connecting rope 4 is increased without increasing the buoyancy of the floating structure 1, It is possible to maintain the position of submerged submerged structures at a certain depth below the water surface without any change.

As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the buoyancy device for water depth maintenance 100b according to the third embodiment of the present invention includes a container assembly 110 and a connection member 130 similar to the first and second embodiments do.

The container assembly 110 connects the plurality of containers 111 in the longitudinal direction to provide buoyancy to be suspended in water. As in the first and second embodiments, the pair of containers 111 adjacent to each other are opened And the sealing end of the opposite end of the injection port may be connected to each other through the connection pipe 115 having a predetermined length. And the same members are denoted by the same reference numerals and the detailed description thereof will be omitted.

At this time, the connection pipe 115 may have a length corresponding to the entire length of the container assembly 110 so as to sufficiently secure a close fixing force of the second fixing rope 137 interposed between the connection pipe 115 and the container have.

And a pair of contact tubes 117 correspondingly inserted into the ends of the pair of containers corresponding to both ends of the container assembly 110 to externally expose the injection port, And the outer surface of the pair of containers 111, and the outer surface of the pair of containers 111 is interposed between the inner surface of the inner tube 115 and the outer surface of the pair of containers 111. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, A middle portion of the length can be selectively interposed between the inner surface of the coupling pipe 115 or each inner surface of the tightening pipe 117 and each outer surface of the pair of containers 111 and can be tightly fixed.

The second fixed rope 137 is connected to the third rope connecting line 138 at both ends thereof so as to be coupled with the third rope connecting line 138 and is formed as a straight rope having a predetermined length to form a binding anchor 137a at the inlet of the container However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and it may be provided with a closed loop type circular protrusion having both ends connected to the third rope connecting line 138 to form a bundle fixing portion 137a at the inlet of the container.

The main rope 2 may be connected to the main rope 2 so as to be difficult to move along with the main rope 2 or may be separated from the main rope 2 by a separation length of a predetermined length.

The total length of the connection unit 130 including the second fixed ropes 137 and the third rope connection lines 138 is shortened so that the container assembly 110 can be disposed as close as possible to the main rope or the connection rope .

Both ends of the second fixed rope 137 are fixedly connected to both ends of the container assembly by forming a coupling and fixing part 137a at an inlet of each container corresponding to both ends of the container assembly, And the other end of the second rope connecting rod 138 connected to the rope is connected to the other end of the second rope connecting rod 138. Accordingly, when the buoyancy of the container assembly floated on the water surface or the container assembly submerged below the water surface occurs, It is possible to prevent the stress from being concentrated at the end portion of the groove 117 to be broken or deformed.

As a result, both ends of the container assembly 110 are constrained so as to be arranged close to and parallel to the main rope 2 via the connecting body 130 in the same manner as the first and second embodiments, The buoyancy can be increased without adding a buoyant body to the floating structure 1 while giving a floating force to the main rope 2 so that the total weight of the diving structure 3 connected to the main rope 2 via the connecting rope 4 The position of the submerged submerged structure can be stably maintained at a constant depth below the water surface.

The total length of the connecting body 130 including the first bending member 139a and the fourth rope connecting line 139b is shortened so that the container assembly 110 can be disposed as close as possible to the main rope or connecting rope .

Accordingly, both ends of the pair of container assemblies 110 are constrained so as to be arranged close to the left and right sides of the main rope 2 via the connecting body 130, thereby imparting a levitation force to the main rope 2 Even if the total weight of the submerged structure 3 connected to the main rope 2 via the connecting rope 4 is increased, it is possible to increase the buoyancy without adding a buoyant body to the floating structure 1, The position of the submerged submerged structure can be stably maintained without changing.

In addition, both ends of the container assembly 110 are submerged and arranged so as to be arranged close to each other on both sides of the connecting rope 4 located below the water surface via the connecting body 130, It is possible to more easily carry out the lifting work of lifting up the submersible structure 3 which is heavy.

The buoyancy device for water depth maintenance 100d according to the fifth embodiment of the present invention includes a container 111 and a connection member 130 as shown in FIG.

As in the first, second, third, and fourth embodiments, the container 111 is sealed by the plug 113 to provide buoyancy that is floated to the water by the gas filled in the inner space.

The connecting member 130 is disposed on the left and right sides of the main rope 2 or the connecting rope 4 so as to surround the outer surfaces of a pair of containers 111 floating on the water surface, And a fifth rope connecting line 139d having one end connected to the second bending member 139c and the other end connected to the main rope 2.

At this time, the second bending member 139c may be formed as an integral frame through which a pair of circular holes are inserted and fixed correspondingly to the center of the container, or two separate frames formed by recessing the half-circular groove are assembled together .

The fifth rope connecting line 139d is connected to the main rope 2 so as to be movable along the main rope 2 in the same manner as the first, second, third and fourth rope connecting lines The main rope 2 may be connected to the main rope 2 so as to be difficult to move along the main rope 2, or may be separated from the main rope 2 by a separation length of a predetermined length.

Preferably, the second band member 139c is fixed to the center or the center of gravity of the container floating on both sides of the main rope 2.

Accordingly, the pair of containers 111 are restrained to be arranged close to the left and right sides of the main rope 2 or the connecting rope via the connecting body 130 in the same manner as in the fourth embodiment, The floating structure 3 can be connected to the main rope 2 via the connecting rope 4 because the buoyant force can be increased without adding the buoyant body to the floating structure 1 while giving the floating force to the main rope 2, Even if the total weight of the submerged structure is increased, the position of the submerged submerged structure can be stably maintained at a constant depth below the water surface.

Both ends of the container assembly 110 are submerged and arranged so as to be arranged close to each other on both sides of the connecting rope 4 located below the water surface via the connecting body 130 to thereby apply a floating force to the connecting rope 4 It is possible to more easily perform lifting work for lifting up the submersible structure 3 which is a heavy object.

The container assembly 110 selectively applied to the main rope 2 or the connecting rope 4 according to the first to fourth embodiments is formed by connecting a pair of containers through a single connecting pipe 115 But the present invention is not limited thereto and the container assembly 110 may be configured such that the container 111 is connected to the container 111 through the other connection pipe 115a, At least one of which is connected to the main rope 2 or the connecting rope 4 so as to have relatively high buoyancy as compared with one container assembly.

9B, the container assembly 110 is connected to another container assembly and a connection pipe 115a so as to extend along the main rope so as to extend to the main rope 2 Or a long elongated composite along the connecting rope 4, thereby having a relatively high buoyancy as compared to a single container assembly.

As shown in FIG. 10, the buoyancy device for water depth maintenance 100e according to the sixth embodiment of the present invention is similar to the first, second, third and fourth embodiments, (9) having a weight (8) connected at its lower end to a submerged structure submerged at a certain depth below the water surface and connected to the submerging structure via a connecting rope (4) The container assembly 110 is fixedly installed as a plurality of third bending members 143.

The container assembly 110 vertically disposed on one side of the flag pole connects the plurality of containers 111 in the longitudinal direction to provide buoyancy floating on the water. As in the first, second, third, and fourth embodiments, The adjacent pair of the containers 111 may be connected to each other so that the closed ends opposite to the injection port face each other via a connection pipe 115 having a predetermined length opened at both ends, The description will be omitted below.

The third bending member 143 includes a ring-shaped fixing portion 141 for covering and fixing the outer surface of the container 111 disposed at the upper and lower ends of the container assembly 110, And a free end of the third bending member 143 facing each other is connected as a fastening member 142a to the container assembly 110, Is installed side by side on a flagpole (9) vertically standing on the water surface, and buoyancy is generated so that a part of the body is submerged below the water surface to float the flagpole to the water surface.

At this time, the ring-shaped fixing portion 141 may be divided into the same arc-shaped fixing portion 142 as the pair of arc-shaped fixing portions 142, and the arc-shaped fixing portion 141 may surround the outer surface of the container.

In addition, by attaching reflection paper reflected by light to the container assembly 110, the flagpole floating on the water surface can be confirmed clearly at sea.

Accordingly, the container assembly 110 is vertically restrained by the third banding member 143 at one side of the flag pole, and a part of the body is submerged in the water surface, thereby giving the flag pole 9 a levitation force The position of the submerged structure submerged at a certain depth below the water surface can be stably maintained even if the total weight of the submerged structure 3 connected to the weight 8 of the flag pole via the connecting rope 4 is increased .

11A and 11B, the stopper 113 is coupled to the injection port 112 so as to easily and quickly seal the injection port 112 into which the gas is injected into the inner space of the container 111. In addition, .

The stopper 113 is provided with at least one unidirectional gas injection unit such as a check valve, such as a check valve, for supplying a gas such as air from a gas supply unit such as an unillustrated compressor in one direction and preventing a gas from leaking in a reverse direction after the injection. A gas injection function and a sealing function can be performed at the same time.

The cap 113 is formed on the inner circumferential surface of the cap 113a to be engaged with the male screw 112a formed on the outer circumferential surface of the injection port 112 in a threaded manner, Thereby facilitating separation.

11A and 11B, the unidirectional gas injection unit 120 has a predetermined length having an injection line 121 for exposing a main inlet 121a through which air is injected to the outer surface of the plug 113, A hollow elastic body 123 inserted into the valve body 122 to cover and block the discharge end 121b of the injection line 121 exposed to the outer surface of the valve body 122, However, the present invention is not limited thereto and may be provided in various forms.

The unidirectional gas injection unit 120 may include a valve body having an injection line formed in the stopper, but the present invention is not limited thereto and may be provided in the container body. -1557224 can be selectively employed.

The valve body 122 is made of the same material as the stopper 113 and extends from the inner surface to the container side by a predetermined length. The hollow elastic body 123 is connected to an injection line 121 such as rubber or resin so as to elastically cover and seal the discharge end 121b of the discharge pipe 121. [

When the gas is further filled through the injection line by applying the unidirectional gas injection unit 120 to the stopper 113 for sealing the injection port 112 of the container 111, The outer diameter of the container 111 is enlarged and the adhesion force generated between the outer surface of the container 111 and the inner surface of the connection pipe 115 can be further increased. So that the coupling force of connecting the pair of containers with the closed ends facing each other can be increased.

In addition, since the adhesion between the outer surface of the container 111 and the close-up pipe 117 can be increased, the distance between the container 111 and the close-up pipe 117 and between the container 111 and the connection pipe 115 The fixing force of the first and second fixed ropes 135 and 137 interposed between the first and second fixed ropes 135 and 137 can be increased.

In addition, by forcibly injecting gas into the internal space of the container 111 through the unidirectional gas injection unit 120 provided in the cap 113, the internal pressure of the container provided in the container assembly is adjusted to have a pressure higher than the atmospheric pressure Then, the container 111 may be heated and heat-treated using external heat of various types provided from the outside at a predetermined temperature for a certain period of time so that the container may be softened so as to be deformed by internal pressure.

The external heat may be a heat source such as hot air, radiant heat, hot water heat, or the like, which is directly or indirectly provided to the outer surface of the container 111. The temperature of the external heat, which is heated by heating the container, The heating time and the heating temperature may vary.

Accordingly, when the container material is softly softened by the external heat provided from the outside of the container, the container is gradually expanded by the gas filled in the container 111 to have an internal pressure higher than atmospheric pressure, The connection between the connection pipe and the inner surface of the close-coupled pipe can be increased as compared with a state in which only the gas is forcedly injected to expand the volume.

That is, a phase change which is a lattice change between molecular structures of the container 111 is generated in a state in which the gas filled in the container body 111 is filled with a pressure higher than the atmospheric pressure, and the transformation point temperature, The container body heated to the transformation point temperature is softened from the hard state to the soft state so that the softened container is gradually expanded in volume by the external force caused by the internal pressure of the gas filled to have a pressure higher than the atmospheric pressure will be.

On the other hand, when the operation of providing the external heat to the container 111 and stopping the heating operation is stopped, the container is cooled by the atmospheric temperature and returned from the soft state to the hard state, thereby maintaining the bulky state.

Here, the external heat that heats the container 111 to be inflated and deformed by the internal pressure of the gas can be set to a temperature that is relatively higher than the atmospheric temperature and equal to or higher than the transformation point temperature of the container, The temperature may be set differently depending on the material of the container 111, but it is preferable to set the temperature to approximately 50 to 100 ° C.

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made in the present invention without departing from the spirit or scope of the inventions. It will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art.
