Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the fields of water conservancy testing and hydrogeological research technology, specifically to a monitoring device and method for monitoring water and soil loss in karst caves. Background Technology

[0002] Karst areas are prone to cave formation due to their geological conditions. Under natural conditions and the influence of human activities, the overlying soil layer is easily carried by surface water and atmospheric precipitation into underground water caves along karst conduits, fissures, and sinkholes, causing water and soil loss in karst areas and thus damaging the ecological environment. Therefore, corresponding monitoring devices are needed to test the water and soil loss in karst caves, so as to facilitate the implementation of corresponding survey and protection measures for the ecological environment.

[0003] The invention disclosed in CN115561482B is a liquid level and flow rate monitoring device, which measures the flow rate through an ultrasonic generator and an ultrasonic receiver, and can use a lifting column to control the height of the measuring element, thereby measuring the liquid level at different heights.

[0004] However, the invention described above cannot measure the distance between the current liquid level and the bottom and sides of the cave, nor can it measure the cross-sectional width of the liquid at each height, nor can it accurately measure the specific flow rate, making it difficult to calculate the amount of sediment loss.

[0021] To better achieve the objectives of this invention, this invention also provides a monitoring method for a karst cave water and soil leakage monitoring device, comprising the following steps:

[0022] Step 1: Suspend the first shell inside the karst cave. Place the water inlet net, upper distance measuring component, and lower distance measuring component of the flow measuring assembly underwater. Install a lead ring at the lower end of the first shell to stabilize the device. If the water flow inside the cave is in a flowing state, the water flow will pass through the water inlet net.

By periodically sampling at a set time, the average water depth, average flow cross-sectional area, and average flow velocity over a period of time can be obtained, thereby obtaining the average flow rate.

[0025] Step 4: By sampling the water in the karst cave at the site, the sediment content in the water is obtained. Based on the flow rate obtained by the detector, the sediment content of the flowing water over a period of time can be determined. Then, by calculating the product of the change in the distance between the bottom of the karst cave and the detector over a period of time and the cross-sectional area of ​​the karst cave, the bottom sedimentation is obtained. The two are added together to obtain the total amount of soil and water loss.

[0026] The present invention has the following technical effects:

[0027] 1. This invention adjusts the propeller's orientation by using a swing rod and tail fin, ensuring the propeller always faces the water flow direction, thus making flow velocity measurement more accurate; the lead ring stabilizes the center of gravity, preventing significant swaying of the device in the water flow, improving the device's stability and measurement accuracy.

[0028] 2. The present invention uses a horizontal distance measuring instrument installed in the horizontal distance measuring cavity on the second shell of the upper distance measuring component to measure the distance to the rock wall in various directions, thereby obtaining the average flow cross-sectional area. Combined with the rotational speed of the propeller of the velocity measuring component of the flow measuring component, the corresponding flow rate can be obtained, which is convenient for calculating the amount of sediment loss.

[0029] 3. The present invention uses a vertical rangefinder installed on the vertical rangefinder cavity of the third shell to determine the height of the current measuring instrument from the bottom of the water body, thereby calculating the thickness of sediment deposition at the bottom of the cave and using it to calculate the bottom sediment volume.

The inner wall of the lower ranging component 4 is connected; the upper rotating ball 211, the lower rotating ball 212 and the connecting rod 213 are hollow inside and connected from top to bottom, and the top of the cavity of the upper rotating ball 211 and the bottom of the cavity of the lower rotating ball 212 are respectively connected to the interior of the upper ranging component 3 and the interior of the lower ranging component 4; the middle end of the side wall of the connecting rod 213 is fixedly connected to the inner end of multiple swing rods 214, and the middle end of the side wall of the connecting rod 213 is fixedly connected to the inner end of the tail fin 215. The swing rods 214 and the tail fin 215 are both located inside the water inlet net 216; a speed measuring component 22 is installed at the middle end of the connecting rod 213.

[0050] In operation, the first housing 1 is suspended inside a karst cave. The water inlet net 216, upper distance measuring component 3, and lower distance measuring component 4 of the flow measuring component 2 are all placed underwater. A lead ring 6 is installed at the lower end of the first housing 1 to stabilize the device. If the water flow inside the cave is in a flowing state, the water flow will pass through the water inlet net 216. The swing rod 214 and tail fin 215 are affected by the water flow, driving the upper rotating ball 211, lower rotating ball 212, and connecting rod 213 to rotate, so that the propeller 221 of the speed measuring component 22 is always opposite to the water flow direction.

7. A monitoring method for a karst cave water and soil leakage monitoring device as described in claim 6, characterized in that, Includes the following steps: Step 1: Suspend the first shell (1) in the karst cave. Place the water inlet net (216), upper distance measuring component (3), and lower distance measuring component (4) of the rotating component (21) of the flow measuring component (2) underwater. Install a lead ring (6) at the lower end of the first shell (1) to stabilize the device. If the water flow in the cave is in a flowing state, the water flow will pass through the water inlet net (216). The swing rod (214) and tail fin (215) are affected by the water flow, which drives the upper rotating ball (211), lower rotating ball (212), and connecting rod (213) to rotate, so that the propeller (221) of the speed measuring component (22) is always opposite to the direction of the water flow. Step 2: The propeller (221) is driven to rotate by the water flow, which in turn drives the screw rod (222) and the conductive cam (223) to rotate. The conductive cam (223) periodically contacts the contact end of the flow measuring wire box (224) according to the speed, and sends out an electrical signal, which is transmitted to the external processor through the main wire (5). The speed of the propeller (221) is obtained according to the signal frequency, thereby obtaining the magnitude of the water flow velocity. Step 3: Measure the distance to the surrounding rock walls in various directions using the horizontal distance measuring instrument (34) installed in the horizontal distance measuring cavity (33) on the second shell (31) of the upper distance measuring component (3); determine the height of the current measuring instrument from the bottom of the water body using the vertical distance measuring instrument (44) installed in the vertical distance measuring cavity (43) of the third shell (41), thereby obtaining the average flow cross-sectional area; and obtain the average water depth, average flow cross-sectional area, and average flow velocity over a period of time by periodically sampling at a set time, thereby obtaining the average flow rate. Step 4: Based on the sampling of water samples from the karst cave at the site, the sediment content in the water body is obtained. Then, based on the flow rate obtained by the detector, the sediment content of the flowing water body over a period of time is obtained. Then, by calculating the product of the change in the distance between the bottom of the karst cave and the detector over a period of time and the cross-sectional area of ​​the karst cave, the bottom sedimentation is obtained. The two are added together to obtain the total amount of soil and water loss.
