Abstract:
The present invention discloses an ocean surface water continuous sampling device, the device comprises a support that ascends and descends along the stern, on the support a sampling pipe for drawing and sampling the surface water, and hydraulic tanks for driving the support up and down to send the sampling pipe to where the surface water is are provided, and a buffer mechanism for avoiding damage due to constant water resistance to the sampling pipe during sailing is provided on the support too. Configuration of the depth transducer, control unit and hydraulic tanks, promises surface water accurate and continuous collection during research vessel travelling; the buffer mechanism works effectively in avoiding radial and axial damage to the sampling pipe due to continuous water current resistance, which successfully relieves the resistance, and prolongs sampling pipe life; and automatic surface water collection is realized with the automatic control design.
