Research on the Function and Function of Marine Fog Clock

Marine fog clocks are usually installed on the bow of ships, mainly used when ships encounter heavy fog at sea. In order to avoid collisions between ships, marine fog clocks usually ring every fifteen minutes when ships encounter heavy fog, allowing nearby ships to distinguish distance and direction based on the sound of the marine fog clock. Of course, with the advancement of radar technology, especially the functionality of ARPA radar, the probability of using marine fog clocks is decreasing. Currently, almost all large ships have used radar to operate and avoid ships, but there are still marine fog clocks on each ship, located at the center of the bow of each ship.

A marine fog clock is a fog signal device that uses the sound of a bell as an audio signal. Usually, ship fog clocks are installed on light boats or buoys, using the undulating force of waves to strike and produce sound. Some ships use fog clocks installed on manned light boats or lighthouses, which are manually struck, while others use compressed air or electricity to make the clock sound. The effect of marine fog clocks is poor, with a listening range of 1-2 nautical miles.

In the current rules for avoiding collisions at sea, it is stipulated that when ships anchor in fog, they should use a ship fog bell together with a whistle to indicate the identification signal of the anchored ship, in order to warn nearby ships that are sailing: "There is a ship ahead. The way the ship fog bell rings is as follows: first, ring the ship fog bell continuously for 5 seconds at the bow of the ship. The front bell has not disappeared yet, and then the ship's fog bell rings continuously for 5 seconds at the rear of the ship.
