DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] To make the objects, technical solutions, and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the present application will be described below in connection with the drawings in the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0027] In the related art, the measurement of vertical profile meteorology usually includes two schemes, one is to build a meteorological observation tower for measurement, and the other is to use a ground radar for measurement. Among them, when the meteorological observation tower is used for measurement, the cost of the meteorological observation tower is high, the cost is high, and it cannot be collected according to the detection position. When the ground radar is used for measurement, the ground radar will be disturbed by many factors, and the meteorological environment changes at any time, which cannot guarantee the stability and accuracy of the measurement data, and at the same time, this measurement method belongs to a calculated measurement, which is different from an invasive measurement.

[0028] In order to overcome the defects brought by the above two detection methods, a tethered balloon can be used to carry a meteorological observation system, so that the meteorological observation system can be driven by the tethered balloon to reach the predetermined position to detect the atmospheric environment. In this detection method, the meteorological observation system can detect direct measurement results like a meteorological observation tower, and can also measure at any time and anywhere like a ground radar. In addition, using a tethered balloon to carry a meteorological observation system has the advantages of being mobile and flexible and having low cost. Therefore, the tethered balloon carrying the meteorological observation system is a new means of observing the atmosphere, and is also a new field of application of small and medium-sized tethered balloons.

[0029] In an embodiment according to the present application, a vertical profile meteorological observation tethered balloon system is provided, which includes a tethered balloon body 1, a tethering cable 2, and meteorological observation equipment 3, wherein the meteorological observation equipment 3 is provided with a detection device and a solar power generation device, the solar power generation device can convert received solar energy into electric energy and supply it to the detection device, so that the detection device can continuously and effectively detect the atmospheric environment. The following will be described in combination with Figures 1 to 6 The vertical profile meteorological observation tethered balloon system in the embodiment is further described.

[0030] As Figure 1As shown, the tethered weather observation balloon system in the embodiment includes a tethered balloon body 1, a tethering cable 2 and a weather observation device 3.

[0031] The tethering cable 2 is connected to the tethered balloon body 1 at one end and is used to connect to a ground device at the other end. The weather observation device 3 is fixedly arranged on the tethering cable 2.

[0032] The weather observation device 3 is provided with a detection device and a solar power generation device. The detection device is used to detect the environment, and the solar power generation device is electrically connected to the detection device. The solar power generation device can supply power to the detection device.

[0033] It can be understood that the tethered balloon body 1 can be filled with a gas lighter than air, such as helium and hydrogen. One end of the tethering cable 2 can be fixedly connected to the bottom of the tethered balloon body 1, and the other end can be connected to a storage mechanism on the ground. The storage mechanism can release and store the tethering cable 2 under the drive of a motor.

[0034] The weather observation device 3 is fixedly arranged on the tethering cable 2. When the tethering cable 2 rises with the tethered balloon body 1, the weather observation device 3 can also rise to the air simultaneously, thereby realizing detection of the atmospheric environment.

[0035] In the embodiment, the weather observation device 3 is provided with a detection device and a solar power generation device. The detection device can realize detection of various parameters of the atmospheric environment, such as a temperature sensor, a humidity sensor, a barometer, etc. For example, the detection device detects temperature, humidity, air pressure, wind speed, wind direction, supercooled water, etc. The detection device can also detect other meteorological parameters by arranging other sensors, such as water vapor isotopes, black carbon, PM2.5, PM10, etc.

[0036] The solar power generation device can absorb solar energy and convert it into electrical energy, which is ultimately supplied to the detection device, so that the detection device can work continuously and stably.

[0037] In actual use, when it is necessary to detect the atmospheric environment of a certain area, the tethered balloon system can be placed at a predetermined detection position. Then, the tethered balloon body 1 is filled with a gas lighter than air, so that the tethered balloon body 1 has a certain buoyancy. Then, the tethering cable 2 is slowly released by the ground device. The tethered balloon body 1 will gradually float in the air. With the rising of the tethered balloon body 1, the weather observation device 3 fixedly arranged on the tethering cable 2 can rise to a predetermined position. Thus, the detection device can accurately detect various atmospheric parameters in the current environment. At the same time, the solar power generation device can also convert solar energy into electrical energy in real time and supply it to the detection device.

[0038] In the embodiment, the solar power generation device can power the detection device, which can greatly improve the endurance of the detection device, so that the detection device can continuously work for several days or even a month. Moreover, the tethered balloon system can be used and stored according to the use requirement, which is convenient to use and is not limited by geographical environment.

[0039] In addition, in order to obtain the detection data of the detection device in real time, the weather observation equipment 3 is further provided with a wireless transmission device, which is electrically connected with the detection device, and can realize wireless communication with the ground observation equipment. Therefore, in actual use, the solar power generation device can power the wireless transmission device, the detection device can transmit the detected data to the wireless transmission device, and the wireless transmission device can send the detected data to the ground observation equipment, so that the ground staff can obtain the relevant information in time.

[0040] Further, the weather observation equipment 3 can be arranged in sequence along the length direction of the tethering cable 2. Therefore, the multiple weather observation equipment 3 can detect the atmospheric environment information at different heights respectively, so as to obtain more accurate and complete atmospheric environment information on the vertical profile.

[0041] In the embodiment, the multiple weather observation equipment 3 can synchronously collect the weather data on the vertical profile, so that the ground observation equipment can realize one-to-many acquisition of the weather data on the same vertical profile, and finally facilitate the storage and analysis of the weather data of the region.

[0042] Exemplarily, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the weather observation equipment 3 in the embodiment comprises a wind vane tail wing 31, an equipment storage box 32, an anemometer 33 and a connecting rod 34.

[0043] The wind vane tail wing 31, the equipment storage box 32 and the anemometer 33 are fixedly connected via the connecting rod 34, and the detection device is arranged in the equipment storage box 32.

[0044] In a specific embodiment, the wind vane tail wing 31 and the anemometer 33 can be arranged at two ends of the connecting rod 34 respectively, and the equipment storage box 32 can be arranged at the middle part of the connecting rod 34. The equipment storage box 32 has a storage space, and the sensors for detecting the weather parameters in the detection device and the related circuit structure can be arranged in the storage space.

[0045] The equipment storage box 32 or the connecting rod 34 can be fixedly connected to the tethering cable 2.

[0046] Further, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the solar power generation device comprises a plurality of solar panels 35, which are respectively laid on the outer periphery of the wind vane tail wing 31 and the equipment storage box 32, and are connected to the detection device.

[0047] In actual use, the solar panels 35 arranged outside can be irradiated by sunlight from multiple directions, thereby absorbing solar energy, then converting the solar energy into electric energy, and finally supplying the electric energy to the detection device.

[0048] In a specific embodiment, the wind vane tail wing 31 can comprise a tail rod coaxially arranged with the connecting rod 34, and three wing pieces which are sequentially and spacedly arranged along the circumferential direction of the tail rod, and the plurality of solar panels 35 are uniformly laid on the three wing pieces. The equipment storage box 32 can be configured as a rectangular box structure, and the plurality of solar panels 35 are uniformly laid on the outer surface of the box structure.

[0049] Optionally, in order to fully absorb solar energy, the solar panels 35 can cover two surfaces of the three wing pieces and the entire outer surface of the box structure.

[0050] In the present embodiment, in order to accurately detect the wind direction, the tether cable 2 can be fixedly connected to the barycentric position of the meteorological observation equipment.

[0051] Therefore, when the meteorological observation equipment 3 reaches the air and is blown by the wind, the wind vane tail wing 31 and the anemometer 33 can always be kept on the same horizontal plane, and the accuracy of the wind speed and direction detection can be ensured.

[0052] The connection mode of the meteorological observation equipment 3 and the tether cable 2 directly affects the accuracy of the measurement data. In order to adapt to the lifting work form of the whole device, in the present embodiment, the tether balloon system further comprises a quick mounting device 4, and the meteorological observation equipment 3 is connected to the tether cable 2 via the quick mounting device 4. Under the action of the quick mounting device 4, the meteorological observation equipment 3 can rotate following the wind direction, and at the same time, when the tether cable 2 rotates, the meteorological observation equipment 3 can maintain a predetermined direction.

[0053] Specifically, the quick mounting device 4 in the present embodiment comprises a clamping column, an annular track and a connecting seat 5.

[0054] The clamping column is used for clamping the tether cable, the annular track is annularly arranged on the outer periphery of the clamping column and is formed with an annular groove, and the connecting seat is arranged in the annular groove and can move around the tether cable in the annular groove, and the meteorological observation equipment 3 is connected to the connecting seat 5.

[0055] It can be understood that the clamping column can effectively clamp the tethering cable 2, the clamping column does not slide relative to the tethering cable, the annular track is arranged around the clamping column, and the annular track is formed with an annular groove around the clamping column, and the connecting seat 5 can move in the annular groove.

[0056] In actual use, when the meteorological observation equipment 3 reaches the air and is blown by the wind, the meteorological observation equipment 3 needs to turn to face the wind direction under the guidance of the wind vane tail wing 31, at this time, the connecting seat 5 can move in the annular groove, and finally the connecting rod can be parallel to the wind direction, so as to ensure the accuracy of the measurement results of the wind direction and the wind speed.

[0057] At the same time, when the tethering cable 2 turns, the meteorological observation equipment 3 needs to keep the position facing the wind direction, at this time, the connecting seat 5 can also move in the annular groove, so that the connecting rod can keep the position parallel to the wind direction, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the measurement results of the wind direction and the wind speed.

[0058] Exemplarily, as shown in Figures 4 to 6 The clamping column includes a first column body 41 and a second column body 42, and the first column body 41 and the second column body 42 can be engaged with each other to clamp the tethering cable 2.

[0059] As an implementation manner, the first column body 41 has a first engagement surface provided with a groove extending along the length direction of the first column body 41 and recessed inward, and the second column body 42 has a second engagement surface provided with a flange extending along the length direction of the second column body 42 and protruding outward. When the first column body 41 and the second column body 42 are engaged with each other, the first engagement surface and the second engagement surface are in close contact with each other, and meanwhile, the flange of the second engagement surface can be clamped in the groove of the first engagement surface in an interference fit manner, so that the tethering cable 2 can be effectively fixed between the flange of the second engagement surface and the groove of the first engagement surface.

[0060] Optionally, in order to ensure the fixing effect of the tethering cable 2, the first column body 41 and the second column body 42 are both constructed of elastic rubber material. At this time, the tethering cable 2 can be fully squeezed and fixed by the first column body 41 and the second column body 42.

[0061] In an embodiment, in order to avoid the clamping column from sliding relative to the tethering cable 2, the surface of the flange of the second engagement surface and the surface of the groove of the first engagement surface are provided with anti-skid lines, and the tethering cable 2 can be clamped between the two anti-skid lines. Exemplarily, the anti-skid lines can be linear grooves extending along the radial direction of the clamping column.

[0062] Further, as shown in Figures 4 to 6As shown, the annular track comprises a first track 43, a second track 44 and a clamping mechanism 45. Among them, the first track 43 and the second track 44 are arranged in a ring around the outer periphery of the clamping column, and the first track 43 and the second track 44 jointly form an annular groove, and the clamping mechanism 45 is used to fix the first track 43 and the second track 44. It can be understood that the first track 43 and the second track 44 can be formed in a ring structure, and after being combined, they are sleeved on the outer periphery of the clamping column.

[0063] Preferably, the first track 43 and the second track 44 can be sleeved on the outer periphery of the clamping column in an interference fit manner.

[0064] In an embodiment, in order to avoid the first track 43 and the second track 44 from sliding relative to the clamping column, the inner wall of the first track 43 and the second track 44, and the outer surface of the clamping column can also be provided with anti-skid lines, and in the state that the anti-skid lines contact and press each other, the first track 43 and the second track 44 can be effectively fixed. Exemplarily, the anti-skid lines can be linear grooves extending in the circumferential direction of the clamping column.

[0065] The clamping mechanism 45 can fix the first track 43 and the second track 44 together. As an implementation manner, the positions where the first track 43 and the second track 44 are connected to each other are provided with L-shaped buckles, which are respectively arranged on the two sides of the first track 43 and the second track 44 away from the annular groove. The clamping mechanism 45 has a T-shaped groove. When the first track 43 and the second track 44 are engaged with each other, the L-shaped buckles of the first track 43 and the second track 44 abut each other to form a T-shaped buckle, which can be clamped in the T-shaped groove of the clamping mechanism 45. Thus, by means of the clamping mechanism 45, the fixation of the first track 43 and the second track 44 can be realized.

[0066] Further, the annular groove comprises an upper annular groove and a lower annular groove arranged opposite along the height direction of the clamping column, and the connecting seat 5 is arranged in the upper annular groove and the lower annular groove.

[0067] Specifically, the upper annular groove has a slot opening downward, and the lower annular groove has a slot opening upward, and the upper annular groove and the lower annular groove jointly form an annular groove which is substantially a T-shaped groove. One end of the connecting seat 5 is clamped in the annular groove, wherein the upper structure of the connecting seat 5 in the annular groove is arranged in the upper annular groove, the lower structure is arranged in the lower annular groove, the middle structure extends to the outside of the annular groove, and can be connected with the meteorological observation equipment 3, for example, the connection can be realized by means of bolts.

[0068] As an implementation, the upper structure and the lower structure of the connecting seat 5 in the annular groove respectively include a rolling bearing 51, and the axial direction of the rolling bearing 51 is the same as the axial direction of the clamping column. The rolling bearing 51 of the upper structure can move in the upper annular groove, and the rolling bearing 51 of the lower structure can move in the lower annular groove.

[0069] Therefore, in the embodiment, the upper annular groove and the lower annular groove can respectively limit the up-and-down position of the connecting seat 5, and the up-and-down sides of the connecting seat can be effectively limited to avoid falling out of the annular groove.

[0070] In actual use, when the meteorological observation equipment 3 reaches the air and is blown by the wind, since the connecting seat 5 can rotate around the tethering cable 2 in the annular groove, the meteorological observation equipment 3 can also rotate around the tethering cable 2. At this time, even if the tethering cable 2 itself rotates, it will not interfere with the orientation direction of the meteorological observation equipment 3, and the accuracy of the wind direction collection can be ensured.

[0071] In an embodiment, in order to adapt to the measurement requirement of a higher vertical profile, for the meteorological observation equipment 3 with lighter weight, the tethering balloon body 1 can be made of a PU (polyurethane) material that can adapt to large deformation, so as to adapt to the lifting and lowering motion form of a vertical height of 3000 m. For the meteorological observation equipment 3 with heavier weight, the tethering balloon body 1 can be configured with a sub-gas bag.

[0072] In an embodiment, for a small tethering balloon body 1, a semi-hard tail wing structure form can be adopted, that is, the tail wing uses a carbon fiber rod to make an outline keel, and a DuPont paper tension film is sewn on the carbon fiber rod. This tail wing structure form not only can reduce the weight of the tail wing, but also can guarantee the rigidity of the tail wing.

[0073] Optionally, the joint between the tail wing and the tethering balloon body 1 can adopt a pre-embedded connecting base form. The base is pre-embedded into the specified position when the tethering balloon body 1 is processed, and the tail wing is supported by the base, so that the tail wing maintains the shape.

[0074] In addition, in addition to the tail wing connecting base at both ends, the joint between the tail wing and the tethering balloon body 1 can also adopt a multi-point rope binding or a nylon buckle form.

[0075] Therefore, the vertical profile meteorological observation tethering balloon system in the embodiment has the following advantages:

[0076] The vertical section meteorological observation tethered balloon system in the embodiment comprises a tethered balloon body, a tethering cable and a meteorological observation device, wherein the meteorological observation device is provided with a detection device and a solar power generation device, the solar power generation device can convert received solar energy into electric energy and supply to the detection device, so that the detection device can continuously and effectively detect the atmospheric environment. Therefore, the endurance of the detection device can be greatly improved, and the detection device can continuously work for several days or even a month. Moreover, the tethered balloon system can be released and collected according to the use requirement, and is convenient to use, and is not limited by geographical environment.
