Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of engineering surveying technology, and in particular to a method for high-density water depth measurement next to a quarry. Background Technology

[0002] Riverbank protection projects are crucial to the safety of dikes and the navigation of waterways, and are a key focus of inland river management and water conservancy construction. Inland river riprap revetment is an economical and environmentally friendly method. The revetment riprap uses quarried stone, which is heavy and has good resistance to flood erosion. Considering the water depth of inland rivers, 1000-2000 ton bulk carriers are generally used to transport the stone. Excavators are then used to load the riprap onto the ship. Typically, the excavator loads the riprap 0.5-2.5 meters outside the ship's hull. Considering the impact of drift, the riprap loading area extends from 1 meter inside the ship's hull to 4 meters outside. Water depth measurements are required before and after riprap loading.

[0003] Traditional methods of measuring water depth using boulders are inaccurate, highly susceptible to current fluctuations, and difficult to measure the main rockfall areas 0.5-2.5m beyond the ship's hull. Using survey vessels for water depth measurement interferes with rock-dropping operations, resulting in poor timeliness and limited on-site guidance for the operation. Currently, the main platforms for measurement operations are motorized boats and unmanned vessels, driven by diesel generators or electric motors. Motorized boats offer the advantage of minimal swaying, but suffer from drawbacks such as large draft, high fuel consumption, and large turning radius. Small unmanned vessels are compact, but exhibit significant swaying, and the technology for tilt correction needs improvement. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems existing in the prior art and to propose a method for high-density water depth measurement next to a quarry.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A method for high-density water depth measurement alongside a quarry, comprising a buoy, and further comprising: An outer frame, which is square and covers the outside of the float; A steel pipe fence is fixed to the top of the outer frame, and the steel pipe fence and the top of the floating body form a working space. An instrument bracket, which is fixed to one side of the outer frame, is used to place a depth sounding instrument, which is located at one-third of the position on the side of the outer frame. The first traction rope, there are two of them, and they are respectively set at both ends on the side of the outer frame where the instrument bracket is installed; And an extension section, which is located on the side of the outer frame away from the instrument support, for adjusting the distance between the float and the ship's side.

[0006] Preferably, the float comprises a foam body and an iron shell covering the outside of the foam body, the float body has dimensions of 2000mm in length, 2000mm in width, and 300mm in thickness, and the instrument support has a width of 500mm.

[0007] Preferably, the outer frame includes an upper frame and a lower frame welded from angle steel, with connecting angle steel provided between the upper frame and the lower frame. A first baffle is provided on both the upper frame and the lower frame, and a second baffle is fixed on the upper frame. A wooden board is placed between the second baffle and the first baffle, and the wooden board serves as a support surface for the workspace.

[0008] Preferably, the depth sounding instrument includes a single-beam depth sounder and a GNSS locator mounted on the single-beam depth sounder, wherein the GNSS locator and the single-beam depth sounder are connected to the integrated depth sounding and positioning machine via a cable.

[0009] Preferably, a sleeve for placing the depth sounding rod of a single-beam echo sounder is fixed on the steel pipe fence. A fastening bolt that moves against the depth sounding rod is threaded onto the sleeve. An auxiliary rod is provided between the steel pipe fence and the outer frame. The lower side of the auxiliary rod is connected to the depth sounding rod of the single-beam echo sounder by a strap.

[0010] Preferably, the extension includes an adjusting plate fixed to the outer frame, a hinge frame movably connected to the adjusting plate, and a movable plate connected to the end of the hinge frame away from the adjusting plate, wherein the movable plate moves against the hull.

[0011] Preferably, the hinge frame includes two hinge plates rotatably connected by a pin. Each hinge plate has a first slider and a second slider at both ends. The adjusting plate has a first groove for sliding the first slider, and the movable plate has a second groove for sliding the second slider. The two second sliders are also provided with second pull ropes.

[0012] Preferably, the distance between the adjusting plate and the movable plate after swinging through the hinge frame varies from 500mm to 1500mm.

[0013] Preferably, both the movable plate and the outer side of the outer frame are provided with anti-collision parts, which are either rubber blocks or sandbags.

[0014] It also includes the following steps: S1: After the stone transport ship enters the stone dumping construction position, it anchors and positions itself. The floating body is launched into the water at the shore. A small boat is used to pull the floating body to the side of the stone transport ship. GNSS positioning instruments and single-beam depth sounders are installed on the outer frame and steel pipe fence of the floating body. S2: Staff members on the ship use two first traction ropes to drag the outer frame to carry out measurement work, measuring a position 2m away from the hull; When it is necessary to measure a position 0.5m or 1.5m away from the hull, the staff only need to pull the first traction rope on one side to rotate the float relative to the hull. When it is necessary to measure a position 2.5m or 3.5m away from the hull, the side of the outer frame where the instrument bracket is mounted is arranged parallel to the side of the hull. Then, the staff applies force to the second traction rope, causing the articulated frame to swing, thereby adjusting the distance between the float and the hull, and thus adjusting the measurement position of the depth sounding instrument. This allows the platform to measure four survey lines at distances of 0.5m, 1.5m, 2.5m, and 3.5m from the ship's outer side. S3: After the measurement work before rock throwing is completed, the float is tied to the side of the hull with the first pulling rope. Measurement is carried out after rock throwing. During and after rock throwing, the collected measurement data is further processed and analyzed to provide timely guidance for the excavator rock throwing operation. S4: After the single-ship rock dumping is completed, the buoy is towed back to the shore. Combining the design drawings and pre-dredging measurement drawings, the amount of silt squeezed by the single ship is determined. Multiple measurement data are integrated to determine the overall project progress, overall quality, and overall cost control.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a method for high-density water depth measurement next to a quarry, which has the following advantages: 1. This method for high-density water depth measurement alongside rock-dropping vessels utilizes ropes to tow a floating body, giving it a certain degree of maneuverability. Water depth measurements are conducted before and after rock-dropping on the revetment. The depth sounding instruments on the floating body promptly detect potential under-dropping or over-dropping situations, reducing rework due to under-dropping or excavation due to over-dropping, and significantly improving the construction quality and efficiency of rock-dropping projects.

[0016] 2. This method for high-density water depth measurement near stone-throwing vessels involves mounting the depth sounding instrument on an instrument bracket on the outer frame, with a distance of 0.5m from one side line and 1.5m from the other side line. The outer frame also has an extension section that can extend 1.5m, allowing the instrument's measurement position to be adjusted between 0.5m, 1.5m, 2.5m, and 3.5m. This enables measurement of 1m spacing lines, achieving an effect close to multibeam bath measurement and improving measurement efficiency.

[0017] 3. This method for high-density water depth measurement near stone-throwing vessels prevents damage to the foam body during transportation and construction by setting an iron shell and outer frame on the outside of the foam body, thus ensuring its service life. Attached Figure Description

For example, "connection" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can be a connection within two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0023] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, this embodiment proposes a method for high-density water depth measurement alongside a quarry, including a float 1. The float 1 includes a foam body 101 and a sheet metal shell 102 covering the outside of the foam body 101, providing stable buoyancy and preventing damage during transportation. The float 1 has dimensions of 2000mm in length, 2000mm in width, and 300mm in thickness. It also includes an outer frame 2, a steel pipe fence 3, an instrument support 4, a first pulling rope 5, and an extension section. The outer frame 2 is square and covers the outside of the float 1. The steel pipe fence 3 is fixed to the top of the outer frame 2, forming an I-shaped structure with the top of the float 1. The system provides ample space to ensure operational safety and creates a lightweight measurement platform that facilitates personnel work. An instrument bracket 4 is fixed to one side of the outer frame 2 to hold a depth sounding instrument 7, which is positioned at one-third of the distance from the side edge of the outer frame 2 (500mm from one edge and 1500mm from the other). Two first pulling ropes 5 are provided, located at opposite ends of the side of the outer frame 2 where the instrument bracket 4 is mounted. An extension section is located on the side of the outer frame 2 away from the instrument bracket 4, used to adjust the distance between the float 1 and the ship's side. The instrument bracket 4, with a width of 500mm, can accommodate various types of equipment. In practice, the platform is launched from the shore and towed by a small boat to the anchor position next to the rock-dropping vessel. The operator adjusts the distance between the float 1 and the ship's side using the first traction rope 5. The float 1 and the outer frame 2 can be rotated by pulling only one side of the first traction rope 5, so that the distance between the working platform and the ship's side can be adjusted from 0.5m to 2m. This allows for the collection of water depth data from multiple survey lines, real-time observation of elevation changes before and after rock-dropping, and guidance for the excavator to correct the rock-dropping position. The manual towing of the platform can avoid conflicts with the rock-dropping operation, giving the platform a certain degree of mobility, improving the real-time nature of construction, and timely detection of possible under-dropping or over-dropping situations, reducing the occurrence of rework for under-dropping or over-dropping excavation, and significantly improving the construction quality and efficiency of the rock-dropping project. Moreover, the structure of foam float 1 + steel pipe fence 3 has low cost, requires no power drive, and reduces energy consumption and maintenance requirements. It should be noted that, in order to further improve the depth measuring range of the depth sounding instrument 7, the extension part includes an adjusting plate 6 fixed on the outer frame 2, a hinge frame 601 movably connected to the adjusting plate 6, and a movable plate 602 connected to the end of the hinge frame 601 away from the adjusting plate 6. The movable plate 602 moves against the hull. The hinge frame 601 includes two hinge plates 6011 rotatably connected by a pin. Each hinge plate 6011 has a first slider 6012 and a second slider 6013 at both ends. The adjusting plate 6 has a first groove 603 for sliding the first slider 6012, and the movable plate 602 has a second groove 604 for sliding the second slider 6013. The two second sliders 6013 are also provided with second traction ropes 605. The distance between the adjusting plate 6 and the movable plate 602 after swinging through the hinge frame 601 varies from 500mm to 1500mm. Specifically, when measurements are required at a distance of 2.5m or 3.5m from the hull, the side of the outer frame 2 where the instrument bracket 4 is mounted is arranged parallel to the side of the hull. Then, the operator applies force to the second traction rope 605, causing the hinge frame 601 to swing and the two hinge plates 6011 to rotate relative to each other. This causes the two first sliders 6012 and the two second sliders 6013 to move closer together, thereby adjusting the distance between the float 1 and the hull. This, in turn, adjusts the measurement position of the depth sounding instrument 7, allowing the platform to measure four measurement lines at distances of 0.5m, 1.5m, 2.5m, and 3.5m from the hull, achieving a measurement of measurement lines with a 1m spacing, approaching the effect of multibeam echo sounding and improving measurement efficiency.

[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, based on the above method, the outer frame 2 further includes an upper frame 201 and a lower frame 202 welded from angle steel. A connecting angle steel 203 is provided between the upper frame 201 and the lower frame 202. A first baffle 204 is provided on both the upper frame 201 and the lower frame 202. A second baffle 205 is also fixed on the upper frame 201. A wooden board 206 is placed between the second baffle 205 and the first baffle 204. The wooden board 206 serves as a support surface for the workspace. A double-layer frame structure is formed by welding angle steel. The upper frame 201... The lower frame 202 is fixed to the upper frame 201 by vertical connecting angle steel 203 to form a three-dimensional support system. The first baffle 204 is horizontally welded to the inner side of the frame to enhance the torsional stiffness of the frame and limit the displacement of the float 1. The second baffle 205 is parallel to the first baffle 204 and welded to the upper frame 201 to form a sandwich space. The wooden board 206 is embedded in it as a detachable support surface. The wooden board 206 is made of anti-corrosion pine wood, and its size matches the inner distance of the frame. A 10mm expansion joint is reserved at the edge. The wooden board 206 serves as an operating table to bear the weight of the depth sounding instrument 7 and personnel, and is limited by the baffle to prevent slippage.

[0025] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, based on the above method, the depth sounding instrument 7 further includes a single-beam depth sounder 701 and a GNSS locator 702 mounted on the single-beam depth sounder 701. The GNSS locator 702 and the single-beam depth sounder 701 are connected to the integrated depth sounding and positioning machine via a cable. By installing the single-beam depth sounder 701 and the GNSS locator 702 and using data acquisition and data processing, high-density and accurate water depth measurement can be achieved within 4 meters of the ship. This is suitable for projects with high requirements for water depth measurement density and quality, such as inland river riprap revetment.

[0026] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, based on the above method, a sleeve 8 for placing the depth measuring rod of the single-beam depth sounder 701 is further fixed on the steel pipe fence 3. A fastening bolt 801 that abuts against the depth measuring rod is threaded onto the sleeve 8. An auxiliary rod 9 is provided between the steel pipe fence 3 and the outer frame 2. The lower side of the auxiliary rod 9 is connected to the depth measuring rod of the single-beam depth sounder 701 by a strap. Placing the depth measuring rod in the sleeve 8 facilitates limiting the depth measuring rod, and the fastening bolt 801 abuts the depth measuring rod in the sleeve 8, which improves the stability of the installation of the single-beam depth sounder 701 and ensures the accuracy of the measurement results. At the same time, the lower end of the depth measuring rod is fixed to the auxiliary rod 9 by a strap, further improving the stability of the installation of the depth measuring instrument 7.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, based on the above method, both the movable plate 602 and the outer frame 2 are further provided with anti-collision parts 10, which are either rubber blocks or sandbags. By providing rubber blocks or sandbags on the outer sides of the movable plate 602 and the outer frame 2, the lightweight measuring platform can abut against the ship's side through the anti-collision parts 10 under the pull of the first pull rope 5 or the second pull rope 605, thereby reducing the collision force between the lightweight measuring platform and the ship's hull, avoiding damage to it, and thus reducing its maintenance costs.

[0028] Includes the following steps: S1: After the stone transport ship enters the stone dumping construction position, it anchors and positions itself. The floating body 1 is launched into the water at the shore. A small boat is used to pull the floating body 1 to the side of the stone transport ship. A GNSS positioning instrument 702 and a single-beam depth sounder 701 are installed on the outer frame 2 and steel pipe fence 3 of the floating body 1. S2: Staff members on the ship use two first traction ropes 5 to drag the outer frame 2 to carry out measurement work, measuring a position 2m away from the hull; When it is necessary to measure a position 0.5m or 1.5m away from the hull, the staff only need to pull the first traction rope 5 on one side to make the float 1 rotate relative to the hull. When it is necessary to measure a position 2.5m or 3.5m away from the hull, the side of the outer frame 2 where the instrument bracket 4 is installed is arranged parallel to the side of the hull. Then, the staff applies force to the second traction rope 605, causing the articulated frame 601 to swing, thereby adjusting the distance between the float 1 and the hull, and thus adjusting the measurement position of the depth sounding instrument 7. This allows the platform to measure four survey lines at distances of 0.5m, 1.5m, 2.5m, and 3.5m from the ship's outer side. S3: After the measurement work before rock throwing is completed, the float 1 is tied to the side of the ship with the first pulling rope 5. The measurement is carried out after the rock is thrown. During and after the rock throwing process, the collected measurement data is further processed and analyzed to analyze the elevation changes before and after the rock throwing, and to guide the excavator rock throwing operation in a timely manner. S4: After the single-ship rock dumping is completed, buoy 1 is towed back to the shore. Combining the design drawings and pre-dredging measurement drawings, the amount of silt squeezed by the single ship is determined. Multiple measurement data are integrated to determine the overall project progress, overall quality, and overall cost control.

[0029] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
