Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of meteorological rainfall monitoring, and in particular to a vehicle-mounted piezoelectric rainfall measuring device. Background Art

[0002] Against the backdrop of global climate change, extreme precipitation events occur frequently, especially sudden rainstorms in cities. How to conduct accurate and high-resolution rainfall monitoring is the key to improving the city's ability to respond to meteorological disasters and a means to protect people's lives and property and economic development.

[0003] There are three traditional methods for urban rainfall monitoring: satellite inversion rainfall, radar inversion rainfall and ground rain gauge (fixed) rainfall measurement. However, the above three methods have obvious limitations in monitoring urban rainfall. Satellites are passive remote sensing devices. They observe from top to bottom, cannot penetrate the clouds, and cannot directly observe ground rainfall. Therefore, the satellite inversion rainfall error is relatively large and the temporal and spatial resolution is not high. Weather radars or rain radars are blocked and reflected by tall buildings in the city. There are a lot of blind spots and non-rainfall clutter when observing the city. Ground rain gauges are fixed point measurement devices. They can only measure rainfall at a certain point. To obtain high-resolution surface rainfall, it is necessary to deploy large-scale and large numbers of ground rain gauges, and the urban underlying surface cannot meet this requirement. Therefore, cheap, high-precision, and high-temporal and spatial resolution monitoring of rainfall is still an important technical issue at present. Summary of the invention

Preferably, the lower end surface of the magnetic base 3 is fixed by adsorption to the top of the vehicle. The piezoelectric sensor 1 adopts a piezoelectric ceramic with an arc-shaped steel cover, with a diameter of 100-150mm and a thickness of 2-5cm. The magnetic base 3 is formed by a combination of 4-8 pieces of NdFeB strong magnetic patches.

[0018] The sealing frame 5 is fixedly provided with a horizontal inclination sensor, a controller, a GPS module, a transmission module and a battery.

[0019] The piezoelectric sensor 1 is arranged in parallel with the horizontal tilt sensor. The piezoelectric sensor 1 is used to obtain the initial rainfall. The horizontal tilt sensor is used to measure the horizontal tilt of the piezoelectric sensor 1. The horizontal tilt sensor adopts a dual-axis tilt sensor with a measurement range of >10 degrees, an accuracy of ≤0.05, an output frequency of >10Hz, and supports an RS232 interface.

[0020] The controller corrects the initial rainfall according to the horizontal inclination angle to obtain the corrected rainfall. The controller uses ARM11 quad-core, 256M memory, and runs the Linux system. The correction expression is: ; Where: To correct for rainfall, is the initial rainfall, is the horizontal inclination.

[0021] Preferably, the device also includes an antenna 2. The GPS module obtains the longitude and latitude and the vehicle speed based on the antenna 2. The controller judges the vehicle speed. If the vehicle speed is less than or equal to the set threshold, the controller controls the piezoelectric sensor 1 to obtain the initial rainfall, controls the horizontal inclination sensor to measure the horizontal inclination of the piezoelectric sensor 1, and corrects the initial rainfall according to the horizontal inclination to obtain the corrected rainfall. If the vehicle speed is greater than the set threshold, the controller controls the piezoelectric sensor 1 and the horizontal inclination sensor to stop working. The threshold is set to 30km / h. The positioning accuracy of the GPS module is ≤2 meters, the output frequency is >1HZ, and it supports the RS232 interface.

[0022] The transmission module uploads the longitude and latitude and the corrected rainfall to the cloud based on antenna 2. The transmission module uploads the longitude and latitude and the corrected rainfall to the cloud based on antenna 2 at the set time interval. The set time interval is 5 minutes. The 5G module supports 3G, 4G, and 5G network standards and uses an RS232 interface to connect to the controller.

[0024] Furthermore, the device also includes a solar panel 4 .

[0025] The solar panel 4 charges the battery, and the battery supplies power to the controller. The solar panel 4 uses a 5V 60mA-200mA solar panel, and the battery is a 5V 2000mA or more rechargeable lithium battery.
