[0033] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0034] like Figure 1-8 As shown, a portable depth sounder stabilization device includes a telescopic tube 1, a stabilization chamber 2 is hung on the bottom end of the telescopic tube 1, a plurality of counterweights 3 are threadedly connected to the body of the stabilization chamber 2, a water depth sensor is placed in the stabilization chamber 2, and the wires on the water depth sensor pass through the top hole of the stabilization chamber 2 and the tube cavity of the telescopic tube 1 in sequence and then extend to the outside of the telescopic tube 1.

[0035] Specifically, the telescopic tube 1 includes a first round tube 11, a second round tube 12 and a third round tube 13 which are sequentially sleeved, a handle 111 is provided on the top of the first round tube 11, a first positioning hole 112 is provided on the tube wall of the first round tube 11, and two first positioning holes 112 are provided and are respectively opened at the top and bottom of the first round tube 11;

[0036] The second round tube 12 is slidably connected in the tube cavity of the first round tube 11, and a first spring positioning bead 121 is provided on the top of the tube wall of the second round tube 12. The first spring positioning bead 121 is clamped in the first positioning hole 112 to complete the positioning operation of the second round tube 12. A second positioning hole 122 is also opened on the tube wall of the second round tube 12, and the second positioning hole 122 is located below the first spring positioning bead 121. Two second positioning holes 122 are provided and are respectively opened at the top and bottom of the second round tube 12;

[0037] The third round tube 13 is slidably connected in the tube cavity of the second round tube 12. A second spring positioning bead 131 is provided on the top of the tube wall of the third round tube 13. The second spring positioning bead 131 is clamped in the second positioning hole 122 to complete the positioning operation of the third round tube 13. A hook 132 is welded at the bottom of the third round tube 13, and the stabilizing chamber 2 is hung on the hook 132.

[0038] During specific implementation, those skilled in the art may also use a clothes support rod with a telescopic structure to replace the telescopic tube 1 in this embodiment.

[0039] Specifically, the stabilizing bin 2 includes a bin barrel 21, a bin cover 22 is hinged on the top of the bin barrel 21, and the bin cover 22 is fixed and limited by a snap-fit ​​device 23 when it is covered on the bin barrel 21. A through hole 221 is opened in the center of the bin cover 22, and a hanging ring 222 is set on the top of the bin cover 22, and the hanging ring 222 is hung on the hook 132; a water depth sensor is placed in the bin barrel 21, and the wires on the water depth sensor extend into the tube cavity of the telescopic tube 1 after passing through the through hole 221, and the bottom of the bin barrel 21 is set with an opening.

[0040] Among them, the opening size of the bottom of the silo 21 corresponds to the outer diameter size of the water depth sensor, so as to prevent the body of the water depth sensor from leaking out of the bottom opening of the silo 21 after the water depth sensor is placed in the silo 21. The inner diameter size of the silo 21 matches the outer diameter size of the water depth sensor. After the water depth sensor is placed in the silo 21, the bottom probe of the water depth sensor can pass through the bottom opening of the silo 21 and be located outside the silo 21.

[0041] Specifically, bolts 31 are installed on the counterweight 3 , and the counterweight 3 is threadedly connected to the outer peripheral wall of the silo 21 through the bolts 31 .

[0042] Specifically, the counterweights are provided in plurality and are symmetrically mounted on the outer peripheral wall of the silo 21 .

[0043] In a specific embodiment, four counterweights are provided, and the specifications of the counterweights are provided in various forms. The counterweights of appropriate quantity and weight are selected according to the needs.

[0044] Specifically, the first circular tube 11 , the second circular tube 12 , and the third circular tube 13 are of equal length.

[0045] Specifically, the lengths of the first round tube 11, the second round tube 12 and the third round tube 13 are all set to 50-100 cm. In specific implementation, for ease of operation, a 50 cm round tube is preferably selected.

[0046] Specifically, the inner diameter of the silo 21 matches the outer diameter of the water depth sensor.

[0047] Specifically, the weight of the counterweight 3 is 0.5-0.7 kg. In the specific implementation, for the convenience of carrying, a counterweight 3 of 0.5 kg is preferably selected.

[0048] The portable depth sounder stabilizing device provided by the present invention only includes a telescopic tube 1, a stabilizing chamber 2 and a counterweight 3, and has a simple structure, is easy to install and convenient to carry. The stabilizing chamber 2 is hung on the bottom of the telescopic tube 1 and a plurality of counterweights 3 are threadedly connected on the outer peripheral wall of the stabilizing chamber 2. After the stabilizing chamber 2 is placed in water, the stabilizing chamber 2 is naturally perpendicular to the water surface under the action of gravity, which effectively improves the working efficiency and measurement accuracy during water depth measurement.

[0049] The use process of the present invention is as follows:

[0050] Install the water depth sensor: First, open the bin cover 22, put the water depth sensor into the bin tube 21, pass the wire on the water depth sensor through the through hole 221 and extend it from the bottom of the telescopic tube 1 into the telescopic tube 1, and finally extend it from the top of the telescopic tube 1 to connect to the host. Before the wire extends from the bottom of the telescopic tube 1 into the tube cavity of the telescopic tube 1, it needs to be wrapped around the hook 132 to prevent the water depth sensor from falling off from the bin tube 21. Finally, close the bin cover 22 and fix the closed bin cover 22 with the snap device 23;

[0051] Install the counterweight 3: symmetrically install multiple counterweights 3 on the outer peripheral wall of the silo 21 as needed;

[0052] Data measurement: adjust the length of the telescopic tube 1, and use the hook 132 at the bottom of the telescopic tube 1 to hang the hanging ring 222, put the stabilizing chamber 2 into the water, and record the corresponding water depth data after the reading of the depth meter host stabilizes.
