TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of ecological environment monitoring, in particular to a suspended ecological environment monitoring device. BACKGROUND
[0002] Ecological environment, namely the abbreviation of "environment composed of ecological relationship", refers to the sum of various natural (including the second nature formed under human intervention) forces (matter and energy) or effects closely related to human beings, affecting human life and production activities. Ecological environment refers to the general term of water resources, land resources, biological resources and climate resources quantity and quality, which is a complex ecological system related to the sustainable development of society and economy. Ecological environment problem refers to the various negative feedback effects that harm human survival in the process of human beings using and transforming nature.
[0003] At present, the equipment for monitoring the ecological environment of river water area basically monitors the ecological environment under water, and lacks a device for monitoring the ecological environment on the river bank at the same time, which is not conducive to analyzing the overall river environment, and the species and ecology on the river bank and the river surface are also important reference standards for ecological monitoring. SUMMARY
[0004] The present application aims to provide a suspended ecological environment monitoring device to provide a device capable of monitoring the ecological environment on the river bank and under water at the same time.
[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the present application adopts the following technical scheme: a suspended ecological environment monitoring device, from top to bottom, is a monitoring part, a floating part and a suspension part, the floating part includes a floating plate, the monitoring part and the floating plate are detachably connected, the monitoring part is provided with a monitoring instrument and an underwater monitoring instrument connected in extension, the suspension part includes a fixed frame fixedly arranged below the floating plate and a suspension air pump fixed on the fixed frame, a rectangular frame is provided and connected with the fixed frame in lifting, a plurality of diffusion discs are arranged on the rectangular frame, a gas conveying pipe is provided and communicated with the diffusion discs, and the gas conveying pipe is connected with the suspension air pump.
[0006] The beneficial effects of the present application are as follows:
[0007] 1. The monitoring device is floated on the water surface by the floating plate, the device can be placed on the river surface, the monitoring part can extend the underwater monitoring instrument into the water for water quality monitoring, the monitoring device does not need manual sampling, reduces the labor intensity of the workers, improves the work efficiency, and on the other hand, can collect data in a larger range and can go to many places difficult for people to enter for ecological monitoring.
[0008] 2. The present application has two states, the floating part is responsible for the floating state, that is, the floating plate can make the device float on the water surface, and the suspension part is responsible for the suspension state, when the device enters the suspension state, the suspension air pump delivers gas to the diffusion disc through the gas delivery pipe, the diffusion disc enters the suspension state by diffusing gas, and the diffusion disc increases the contact area of the device bottom with the water surface by arranging a plurality of diffusion discs, so that the diffusion disc supports the device at the same time, avoiding the device from being inclined to affect the collection effect of the monitoring instrument. When the device is in the suspension state, the height of the monitoring part can be raised, which is convenient for monitoring the environment on the shore.
[0009] 3. The present application can monitor a wide range of riverbank environment. When the device is placed in the river and drifts, it can well monitor the ecological change process along the way, and at the same time monitor the underwater environment, and can combine the data of the shore and the underwater environment for combined analysis to obtain more accurate analysis results. The conventional monitoring device arranged on the river embankment or revetment has small monitoring range and is difficult to move, and the riverbank is inclined, which is easy to produce monitoring dead angle due to the accumulation of stones on the riverbank. In order to prevent being submerged by the rising water, it is generally arranged on the dam far away from the riverbank, and the monitoring effect on the riverbank is not good. The device of the present application can observe the riverbank environment from the river, and can monitor more angles and more completely by moving in the width direction along the river. The conventional monitoring device is difficult to move, and even if it is moved upward in height, the monitoring range is not greatly improved. The technical solution of the present application can observe the ecological environment of the riverbank which is not monitored by the conventional monitoring device when moving with the water, and can monitor the vegetation recovery along the way, etc. In addition, the device can monitor the damage of the slope foot of part of the dam and artificial revetment. When these areas are damaged, it is often difficult to observe from the shore, but if it is not repaired in time, it will cause serious property loss. At the same time, the device of the present application not only observes the ecological environment of the shore, but also observes the water surface ecological environment or the distribution of garbage, so as to provide auxiliary data of the underwater environment.
[0010] Preferably, as an improvement, a plurality of air bag cavities are arranged in an array under the floating plate, and an air bag and a floating air pump are fixedly connected in each air bag cavity, and the floating air pump communicates with the air bag. Such arrangement makes the monitoring device adaptable to more environments. The floating plate has a certain buoyancy, which makes it adaptable to the lake or reservoir environment with relatively gentle water flow. However, in the river with relatively large water flow impact, the buoyancy of the floating plate alone is not enough to make the device float in the water, which may cause damage or sinking of the device due to water flow impact. Therefore, the air bag and the floating air pump are arranged under the floating plate. The air bag can increase the buoyancy of the device after inflation, and can also support the device. In addition, the air bag is light in weight and easy to store, and can adapt to various water flow environments.
[0011] Preferably, as an improvement, the monitoring part comprises a fixed block, a hydraulic pump is arranged in the fixed block, grooves are arranged at the left and right ends of the fixed block, hydraulic cylinders are arranged in the grooves, the hydraulic cylinders are connected with the hydraulic pump, monitoring instruments are fixedly arranged at the ends of the hydraulic cylinders away from the fixed block, mounting plates are arranged at the front and back ends of the fixed block, electric telescopic rods which can be inserted into water are arranged at the ends of the mounting plates away from the fixed block, and underwater monitoring instruments are arranged at the ends of the electric telescopic rods.
[0012] In this way, the hydraulic cylinders can push the monitoring instruments to be closer to the bank, so that the environment of the bank can be monitored. The underwater monitoring instruments are connected with the electric telescopic rods, so that the underwater monitoring instruments can monitor water at different depths, collect different groups of data for processing, comprehensively analyze water quality, and avoid the limitation of collecting water quality at the same depth. When the underwater monitoring instruments are not working, the electric telescopic rods can be retracted, so that the underwater monitoring instruments are prevented from being damaged by stones or undercurrents.
[0013] Preferably, as an improvement, a connecting block is arranged at the lower end of the fixed block, connecting grooves are arranged at the two sides of the connecting block, a connecting cavity which can accommodate the connecting block is arranged on the floating plate, and two electric push rods are arranged in the connecting cavity. The electric push rods can be inserted into the connecting grooves to fix the connecting block when the electric push rods reciprocate. In this way, the monitoring part can be detachably connected to the floating plate, so that the monitoring part can be maintained, replaced, and data in the monitoring part can be extracted.
[0014] Preferably, as an improvement, a movement mechanism is arranged at the lower end of the fixed frame, the movement mechanism comprises a steering shaft, a steering motor and a propeller, the steering shaft is fixedly arranged at the lower end of the fixed frame and connected with the steering motor, a movement motor is fixedly arranged at the lower end of the steering shaft, and the movement motor drives the propeller to rotate. Through the above arrangement, the movement mechanism can drive the monitoring device to move, can patrol according to a set route, can monitor the environment of the bank and underwater, and can improve the collection efficiency. Meanwhile, the monitoring device can move against the current in the river, so that the monitoring device can adapt to various environments.
[0015] Preferably, as an improvement, screw rods are rotatably arranged at the two sides of the fixed frame, nut blocks are threadedly connected with the screw rods, the nut blocks are fixedly connected with the rectangular frame, and the screw rods drive the rectangular frame to ascend and descend when the screw rods rotate. In this way, when the device is in a suspended state, the height of the monitoring part can be adjusted by rotating the screw rods, the monitoring instruments can be closer to the bank by cooperation of the height adjustment of the screw rods and the extension amount adjustment of the hydraulic cylinders, the ecological environment of the bank can be monitored, the height adjustment of the screw rods can further protect the monitoring instruments, the possibility that the monitoring instruments hit stones on the bank is reduced, and the service life of the device is prolonged.
[0016] Preferably, as an improvement, fixed tubes are arrayed and fixed on all four sides of the rectangular frame, with the gas delivery pipes placed inside the fixed tubes, and the diffuser plates fixed to the ends of the fixed tubes away from the rectangular frame. With this arrangement, when the device is suspended, on the one hand, the fixed tubes increase the contact area between the bottom of the rectangular frame and the water surface, providing support and stability to the frame, preventing the device from tilting or tipping over, and improving the device's stability; on the other hand, the fixed tubes increase the structural strength of the device's bottom, and placing the gas delivery pipes inside the fixed tubes protects them.
[0017] Preferably, as an improvement, the diffuser is a disc with an inverted V-shaped cross-section. A circular hole at the center of the disc connects to the gas supply pipe, and a blocking block is installed to block the hole. The blocking block is connected to the gas supply pipe via a spring. This configuration prevents water from entering the gas supply pipe, ensuring the device's levitation performance. When the levitation air pump is activated, gas is supplied through the gas supply pipe into the diffuser. The gas pushes the blocking block downwards, allowing the gas to enter the diffuser and thus achieving levitation. The disc shape of the diffuser further increases the contact area between the device and the water surface, thereby increasing the contact area between the gas and the water surface. This ensures the device's balance and increases its buoyancy. Furthermore, the inverted V shape of the diffuser allows it to hold a certain amount of gas, and the continuous airflow from the levitation air pump provides buoyancy, enabling the monitoring unit to levitate. On the other hand, since the device needs to observe the shoreline ecology, the water near the shore is shallow, and aquatic plants may entangle the propeller, making it difficult for it to provide power. At this time, the suspension air pump is turned on, and the air supply pipe delivers airflow. The airflow drives the water flow, which can to some extent untangle the aquatic plants. At the same time, the gas in the diffuser can make the device float slowly. As the airflow loosens the aquatic plants, the device floats up, which can free the propeller from the entanglement of the aquatic plants. In addition, if the device runs aground on the shore, it can be returned to the river through the suspension part. Attached Figure Description
