Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of micrometeorological observation towers, and more particularly to a micrometeorological observation tower with a rotation function. Background Art

[0002] Micrometeorological towers are mainly used to observe the turbulent structure of the atmosphere and trace gas fluxes. The core observation equipment is an ultrasonic anemometer. This equipment can accurately measure the turbulent structure only when the wind comes from an azimuth without tower body obstruction. Often, at the beginning of installing the equipment, the dominant wind direction of the field observation site is unknown, or the dominant direction of the field observation site changes with the seasons.

[0003] Currently, micrometeorological observation towers are all steel structures integrated with the ground. Once installed, the azimuth cannot be changed, or the equipment needs to be disassembled from the tower body first and then reinstalled after adjusting the azimuth, which will consume a huge amount of manpower and working hours, especially when operating in the field environment, it is very difficult. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a micrometeorological observation tower with a rotation function to solve the problems raised in the above background art.

[0005] The present invention provides a micrometeorological observation tower with a rotation function, including an upper tower body, a lower tower body and a rotation mechanism. The upper tower body is connected to the lower tower body through the rotation mechanism. The rotation mechanism includes an upper flange, a lower flange, a rotating shaft component and a locking component. The rotating shaft component is fixed on the top of the lower flange, the upper flange is fixed on the top of the rotating shaft component, and the locking component is installed on the upper flange and the lower flange. The top of the upper flange is provided with a plurality of first connecting columns, each first connecting column is provided with a first external thread and a first nut matching the first thread. The bottom of the upper tower body is provided with a plurality of first through holes for the first connecting columns to pass through. The bottom of the lower flange is provided with a plurality of second connecting columns, each second connecting column is provided with a second external thread and a second nut matching the second thread. The top of the lower tower body is provided with a plurality of second through holes for the second connecting columns to pass through.

[0006] Further, the rotating shaft component includes an outer shaft ring, an inner shaft core, a plurality of first screw rods and a plurality of second screw rods. The outer shaft ring is provided with a plurality of first through holes evenly distributed along its circumference for the first screw rods to pass through. The lower flange is provided with a plurality of first screw holes respectively matching with the plurality of first screw rods. The upper flange is provided with a plurality of second through holes evenly distributed along its circumference for the second screw rods to pass through. The inner shaft core is provided with a plurality of second screw holes respectively matching with the plurality of second screw rods. The inner shaft core is rotationally matched with the outer shaft ring.

[0007] Further, the locking member includes a plurality of first locking screws and a plurality of second locking screws. A plurality of third through holes are provided on both the upper flange and the lower flange, which are evenly distributed along their circumferences and through which the first locking screws pass. A third nut is provided on each first locking screw, and a plurality of third screw holes are provided on the lower housing, which are evenly distributed along its circumference and are in one-to-one cooperation with the plurality of second locking screws. In the locked state, each second locking screw abuts against the inner top wall of the upper flange.

[0008] Further, a baffle for preventing insects is provided at the bottom of the lower flange.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0010] When the position of the upper tower body needs to be adjusted in the present invention, all the third nuts are removed from the corresponding first locking screws, and then all the first locking screws are disengaged from the third through holes of the lower flange. Subsequently, all the second locking screws are loosened from the third screw holes. At this time, the upper tower body can rotate through the rotational cooperation of the inner shaft core and the outer shaft ring. Compared with the traditional adjustment method, the adjustment of the installation orientation of the present invention is more convenient. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0024] The following combination Figures 1 to 6As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present invention provides a micro-meteorological observation tower with a rotation function, which includes an upper tower body 1, a lower tower body 2, and a rotation mechanism 3. The upper tower body 1 is connected to the lower tower body 2 through the rotation mechanism 3. The rotation mechanism 3 includes an upper flange 31, a lower flange 32, a rotating shaft component 33, and a locking component 34. The rotating shaft component 33 is fixed to the top of the lower flange 32, the upper flange 31 is fixed to the top of the rotating shaft component 33, and the locking component 34 is installed on the upper flange 31 and the lower flange 32. A plurality of first connecting columns 311 are provided on the top of the upper flange 31, and each first connecting column 311 is provided with a first external thread and a first nut 312 that mates with the first thread. A plurality of first through holes for the first connecting columns 311 to pass through are provided at the bottom of the upper tower body 1. A plurality of second connecting columns 321 are provided at the bottom of the lower flange 32, and each second connecting column 321 is provided with a second external thread and a second nut 322 that mates with the second thread. A plurality of second through holes for the second connecting columns 321 to pass through are provided at the top of the lower tower body 2. The upper flange 31 and the lower flange 32 are locked by the locking component 34. In the locked state, the upper tower body 1 cannot rotate. When it is necessary to rotate the upper tower body 1 to adjust the observation equipment, the locking component 34 is loosened, and then the upper tower body 1 is rotated through the rotating shaft component 33, and then the locking component 34 is locked. In this way, it is very convenient to adjust the installation orientation.

[0025] Specifically, the rotating shaft component 33 includes an outer shaft ring 331, an inner shaft core 332, a plurality of first screw rods 333, and a plurality of second screw rods 334.

In the locked state, each second locking screw 342 abuts against the inner top wall of the upper flange 31. All the first locking screws 341 are sequentially passed through the corresponding third through holes on the upper flange 31 and the lower flange 32, and then the third nuts 3411 are locked on the first locking screws 341, so that the upper flange 31 and the lower flange 32 are quickly locked. All the second locking screws 342 are locked, and the second locking screws 342 abut against the inner top wall of the upper flange 31. After the upper flange 31 and the lower flange 32 are locked, the second locking screws 342 can push up the upper flange 31, thereby reducing the pressure on the outer shaft ring 331 and the inner shaft core 332.

[0027] Specifically, a baffle 323 for preventing insects is provided at the bottom of the lower flange 32, so as to prevent flying insects from drilling into the rotating mechanism 3 and causing damage to the rotating mechanism 3.
