Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of experimental water tank technology, and in particular to an experimental water tank for simulating nearshore slope terrain based on a gradient adjustable dual-platform lifting system. Background Technology
[0002] The test pool is a device used in marine engineering to conduct physical simulation experiments. By controlling environmental parameters such as water flow, waves, and wind, it constructs test scenarios that are equivalent to or close to real marine environmental parameters, providing crucial data support for research in island development, offshore structure design, and shoreline protection engineering. Specifically, the test pool is equipped with modules for wave generation, current generation, and wind generation to simulate ocean dynamic processes such as waves and tides, test the stability of shoreline protection structures such as breakwaters and revetments under different wave conditions, and can also simulate the working conditions of floating structures.
[0003] In the marine environment, the continental shelf, as the seabed area transitioning from the deep sea to land, is generally distributed along the coastal continental margin. The nearshore slope is the subsequent area transitioning from the continental shelf to the nearshore shallow sea. Its topographic slope is generally greater than that of the continental shelf and is commonly found at the edges of river deltas or around coral reef coasts. This type of terrain can be used for the construction of nearshore wind power platforms, shoreline protection projects, etc.
[0004] From a topographical perspective, waves are prone to refraction, deformation, and even breakage when traversing nearshore slopes. Coastal current velocity and direction vary significantly with slope, accompanied by complex processes such as sediment transport and water exchange. These topographical and hydrological conditions directly determine the design parameters and safety performance of engineering structures. From an ecological perspective, nearshore slope areas are sensitive zones for fish spawning and coral reef growth; engineering activities must balance dynamic environmental factors with ecological protection. Therefore, accurately simulating the topography and dynamic environment of nearshore slopes and reconstructing the interaction mechanisms of waves, currents, and topography is a crucial prerequisite for avoiding structural instability and ecological damage caused by inaccurate simulations in actual engineering projects, and has significant value for both engineering practice and scientific research.
[0005] Existing test pools used to simulate nearshore slope scenarios mostly use fixed slope blocks. Fixed slopes can only simulate terrain with a specific slope, with small undulations and limited height. They cannot fully simulate the large-scale and drastic changes in slope terrain at the edges of nearshore areas and islands and reefs, resulting in a large deviation between the test conditions and the real scene. When it is necessary to simulate slope terrain at different angles, it is often necessary to disassemble and replace the slope blocks, which is complicated and time-consuming.

For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a replaceable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in the embodiments of this application according to the specific circumstances.
[0072] Please see Figures 1 to 8 This application provides a gradient-adjustable nearshore slope topography simulation test pool based on dual-platform lifting, comprising: a pool body 100, a first platform 200, a second platform 300, and an inclined panel 400; a deep pool 110 and a shallow pool 120 are interconnected within the pool body 100 along a first direction; the first platform 200 is vertically adjustable within the deep pool 110; the second platform 300 is vertically adjustable within the deep pool 110; the second platform 300 is located on the side of the deep pool 110 near the shallow pool 120, and is located between the first platform 200 and the shallow pool 120; a sliding seat 210 is provided on the first platform 200, the position of which can be adjusted along the first direction; the first end of the inclined panel 400 is hinged to the side of the second platform 300; the second end of the inclined panel 400 is hinged to the sliding seat 210; the test pool can be switched to at least the following states: overall level state, single gradient state, dual gradient state, transitional state, and lagoon state.
[0073] For ease of explanation, in the embodiments provided in this application, the main body 100 of the pool is taken as a rectangular structure, with its two mutually perpendicular sides extending along a first direction and a second direction, respectively. Specifically, the first direction can be as follows: Figure 6 The X-axis direction is shown in the figure; the second direction is as follows: Figure 6 and Figure 7 The Y-axis direction is shown in the figure.
[0074] In existing technologies, the ramp blocks can only be preset with a single slope, which requires cumbersome steps such as disassembly, transportation, and reinstallation of the ramp blocks to cope with different slope conditions, resulting in a long time consumption. In this solution, the second platform 300 can be raised and lowered independently relative to the first platform 200, thereby realizing rapid adjustment of the tilt angle of the inclined panel 400 without disassembling any structural components, thus improving the efficiency of the test.
[0075] In a completely flush state, such as Figure 1 As shown, the top surfaces of the first platform 200 and the second platform 300 are flush with the bottom surface of the shallow pool 120, forming a continuous planar terrain without height difference, which can reproduce large-area shallow pools or gentle tidal flats. In this state, it can provide a test site for the basic performance testing of floating structures in shallow water terrain, and achieve the maximum utilization of the ground area in the limited test space.
[0076] In the case of shallow and deep single gradient states, such as Figure 2 As shown, the top surfaces of the first platform 200 and the second platform 300 are flush, and a height difference exists between the second platform 300 and the shallow pool 120, with the height of the second platform 300 lower than the bottom surface of the shallow pool 120. This configuration can simulate the topography of abrupt changes in water depth (such as seabed cliffs) from deep to shallow water, thereby allowing for the study of wave propagation and breaking characteristics when waves pass through such depth changes. For example, studying the deformation and breaking process caused by the free release of higher-order harmonics of waves as they propagate from deep to shallow water can provide reliable experimental verification for cutting-edge wave nonlinear dynamics research. Furthermore, the height difference in this configuration can be flexibly adjusted by synchronously raising and lowering the two platforms, improving the adaptability and efficiency of the experiment.
[0077] In the state of deep and shallow gradients, such as Figure 3As shown, a height difference exists between the first platform 200 and the second platform 300, and also between the second platform 300 and the shallow pool 120. Furthermore, the top surface of the second platform 300 is lower than the bottom of the shallow pool 120, and the top surface of the first platform 200 is lower than the top surface of the second platform 300, creating a two-layer gradient terrain of deep water, sub-deep water, and shallow water. This configuration can simulate complex terrain with continuous height differences from deep water to nearshore slopes and then to shallow water. Moreover, by adjusting the heights of the first platform 200 and the second platform 300 and the tilt angle of the inclined panel 400, this configuration can simulate the steep slopes of different nearshore areas and adjust the height difference between the second platform 300 and the shallow pool 120. This accurately matches the multi-level transitions and abrupt changes in water depth characteristic of different sea areas, filling the technical gap in existing fixed slope blocks that cannot simulate multi-layer gradients, and providing more reliable experimental data for marine engineering design under complex terrain.
[0078] In the transition between light and dark, such as Figure 4 As shown, a height difference exists between the first platform 200 and the second platform 300, with the second platform 300 being higher than the first platform 200, and its top surface flush with the bottom of the shallow pool 120. This configuration simulates the terrain transitioning from deep to shallow water, reproducing the wave propagation and energy attenuation process as waves transition from deep to shallow water. It is particularly useful for testing the wave-damping efficiency of breakwaters under abrupt, island-like terrain changes, providing insights for breakwater length and height design. Furthermore, in this configuration, the tilt angle of the inclined panel 400 can be adjusted via the sliding seat 210, flexibly adjusting the slope between the first platform 200 and the second platform 300 to accommodate varying nearshore slopes, providing a more comprehensive scientific basis for nearshore engineering design.
[0079] In the lagoon state, such as Figure 5 As shown, a height difference exists between the second platform 300 and the shallow pool 120, with the bottom of the shallow pool 120 being lower than that of the second platform 300. From a geographical and hydrological perspective, a lagoon refers to a relatively enclosed or semi-enclosed natural or artificial body of water within a land area, typically exhibiting a basin-like structure with higher elevations around the edges and a lower center. In this configuration, the first platform 200 can be configured to be flush with or lower than the second platform 300. In the lagoon configuration, the top surface of the second platform 300 can be equivalent to the gentle slope or shoal surrounding the shallow pool 120. Combined with the flow generation module of the experimental pool, the slow-flowing environment of the lagoon can be reproduced to study the wave propagation evolution process and mechanism of the lagoon, providing conditions for simulating lagoon-specific hydrological processes (such as sediment deposition on the slope).
[0080] Based on the above, this solution, through the lifting functions of the first platform 200 and the second platform 300, combined with the angle adjustment of the inclined panel 400, can quickly adjust the slope of the inclined panel 400 and switch to different states to adapt to different working conditions. This significantly improves test efficiency while more accurately reproducing various terrains, providing test support for safety assessment and structural design of marine engineering.
[0081] In a more specific embodiment, the top surface of the first platform 200 is provided with a sinkhole 220; the sliding seat 210 is slidably disposed in the sinkhole 220; in the overall flush state or in the single gradient state, the inclined panel 400 is located in the sinkhole 220 and is flush with the second platform 300.
[0082] In this embodiment, the sink 220 can accommodate the sliding seat 210 and the inclined plate 400 to improve the flatness of the overall plane when the first platform 200 and the second platform 300 are aligned, and avoid the undulation of the inclined plate 400 itself from interfering with the test.
[0083] In one embodiment, see Figure 8 A pin 211 is provided on the sliding seat 210; a plurality of pin holes 250 are provided on the first platform 200 along the first direction; the pin 211 extends into a pin hole 250, so that the sliding seat 210 and the first platform 200 are connected in a limited position.
[0084] In this embodiment, the pin 211 can be configured as a structure that extends and retracts due to a driving component, such as being driven by a cylinder on the sliding seat 210. In other embodiments, the pin 211 can be manually installed by the operator. Specifically, in each simulation, the height of the first platform 200 and the second platform 300, and the tilt angle of the inclined panel 400 are generally fixed values. Therefore, before each test, the operator can lock the positions of the first platform 200, the second platform 300, and the inclined panel 400 by installing the pin 211, bolts, etc., before filling the pool with water. In practical applications, the first platform 200 and the second platform 300 can be raised above the water surface first, locked in place, and then lowered to the required test height for easier operation by the operator.
[0085] In practical applications, the test pool provided in this embodiment also includes various terrain simulation blocks. The terrain simulation blocks are existing terrain simulation structures that can be installed on the first platform 200, the second platform 300, or the shallow pool 120 under different conditions to more accurately simulate different terrains.
[0086] In one embodiment, the first platform 200 and the second platform 300 are configured as structures capable of floating on water without external force.
[0087] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first platform 200 and the second platform 300 can float on the water in the test pool when no external force is applied. This design reduces the pressure on the lifting drive module to raise the first platform 200 and the second platform 300 after water is injected into the pool.
[0088] In practical applications, the first platform 200 can be configured to float on the water surface when subjected to pressure less than a first preset pressure value. The second platform 300 can be configured to still float on the water surface when subjected to pressure less than a second preset pressure value.
[0089] Specifically, the first and second preset pressure values can be determined according to the test requirements. With only the winch 500 installed, the winch 500 needs to apply a pulling force greater than the first preset pressure value to the first platform 200 to lower it. Similarly, the winch 500 needs to apply a pulling force greater than the second preset pressure value to the second platform 300 to lower it. Through these settings, the first platform 200 and the second platform 300 need to withstand pressures greater than the preset values to fluctuate, thereby increasing the stability of the first platform 200 and the second platform 300 during the test.
[0090] In one embodiment, the lifting drive module includes multiple winches 500; the multiple winches 500 are respectively connected to the bottom of the first platform 200 and the second platform 300 to control the lifting of the first platform 200 and the second platform 300 respectively.
[0091] The lifting and adjustment process provided in this embodiment can be as follows: Initially, the first platform 200 and the second platform 300 are located at the bottom of the deep water pool 110; pulled by the winch 500, the first platform 200 and the second platform 300 remain at the bottom of the deep water pool 110. Then, the winch 500 unwinds, and the first platform 200 and the second platform 300 can rise to the desired position by their own buoyancy. The height control of the first platform 200 and the second platform 300 is controlled by different winches 500 to achieve independent lifting and lowering control.
[0092] In a further improved embodiment, the bottom of the deep pool 110 is provided with multiple pile holes 130; the bottom of the first platform 200 and the second platform 300 are fixedly connected with multiple support columns 600; the support columns 600 are slidably disposed in the pile holes 130 in a one-to-one correspondence. A linear guide structure may be provided inside the pile hole 130; the support column 600 abuts against the linear guide structure.
[0093] In this embodiment, the pile hole 130 and the support column 600 provide support and guidance for the lifting and lowering of the first platform 200 and the second platform 300. The aforementioned linear guide structure can be, for example, a linear bearing or guide rail as in the prior art, specifically enabling the linear guide structure to abut against the side of the support column 600, thereby providing support to the side of the support column 600.
[0094] In one implementation, the first platform 200 can be configured with a dimension of 30-100m along the first direction and a dimension of 20-80m along the second direction. The second platform 300 can be configured with a dimension of 8-20m along the first direction and a dimension of 20-80m along the second direction, and its dimension along the second direction can be the same length as the first platform 200. That is, in this embodiment, both the first platform 200 and the second platform 300 can have large dimensions to more accurately simulate the situation of a near-shore slope. However, since both platforms have large dimensions, if there is a slight deviation in the platform during the lifting process, it will cause a large displacement in the overall height position. For example, if the first platform 200 tilts by 0.1° along the first direction, the height difference between its two sides will reach 70-80mm. This displacement not only interferes with the test but also increases the risk of the platform getting stuck against the inner wall of the pool.
[0095] Therefore, in this embodiment, multiple support columns 600 can provide support for the lifting and lowering of the first platform 200 and the second platform 300, thereby reducing the risk of platform tilting and ensuring the stability of the lifting and lowering of the two platforms.
[0096] In one embodiment, see Figure 9 It also includes a positioning post 700; multiple lock holes 112 are provided on the side of the deep pool 110 in the vertical direction; positioning holes 201 are provided on the first platform 200 and the second platform 300; the lock holes 112 and the positioning holes 201 are used for the positioning post 700 to pass through, so as to restrict the lifting of the first platform 200 and / or the second platform 300.
[0097] As one implementation method, the positioning column 700 can be a structure that can be manually disassembled and assembled by workers.
[0098] In the embodiments provided in this application, similar to the aforementioned pin 211, the positioning pin 700 can also be configured as an electrically controlled telescopic structure on the first platform 200 and the second platform 300. It is slidably disposed in the positioning hole 201 and can be driven by a cylinder. The cylinder and the positioning pin 700 can be pre-installed inside the first platform 200 and the second platform 300. After the first platform 200 and the second platform 300 are raised or lowered into position, the cylinder drives the positioning pin 700 to extend and insert into the locking hole, achieving a limiting connection between the first platform 200 and the second platform 300 and the inner wall of the water tank, thus improving the stability of the platform during the experiment. It should be noted that this method of extending the positioning pin 700 by a cylinder is prior art, and therefore its specific structure is not shown in this embodiment.
[0099] In one embodiment, a guide slide 140 is provided on the side of the deep pool 110; the guide slide 140 is arranged in a vertical direction; a guide wheel 230 is provided on the side of the first platform 200; the guide wheel 230 is slidably connected to the guide slide 140.
[0100] The guide rail 140 provides guidance for the side of the first platform 200 to prevent the side of the first platform 200 from hitting and getting stuck against the inner wall of the pool. Correspondingly, guide wheels 230 can also be installed on the second platform 300.
[0101] In one embodiment, the guide wheel 230 is disposed on the side of the first platform 200 along the second direction.
[0102] Specifically, in the above state, the wave-generating direction of the test pool can be set along the first direction. In this embodiment, the guide wheel 230 is set on the side of the first platform 200 along the second direction, which allows the side of the first platform 200 along the first direction to be closer to the inner wall of the pool, reducing the gap between the first platform 200 and the inner wall of the pool in the first direction, and reducing the energy loss of waves at the gap.
[0103] In practical applications, wave-generating devices can also be installed on the side of the test pool along the second direction to simulate wave generation in different scenarios.
[0104] In one embodiment, the deep pool 110 has a groove 111 on its side along the second direction; the first platform 200 has an extension 240 on its side along the second direction; the extension 240 extends into the groove 111; the groove 111 has a guide slide 140 on its groove wall along the first direction; the extension 240 has a guide wheel 230, and the guide wheel 230 on the extension 240 abuts against the guide slide 140 in the groove 111.
[0105] Specifically, in this embodiment, the cooperation between the groove 111 and the extension 240 enables the first platform 200 to be supported and guided in both the second and first directions by the cooperation between the guide wheel 230 and the guide slide 140.
[0106] Furthermore, a limiting buffer column 800 is provided at the bottom of the deep pool 110; when the first platform 200 and the second platform 300 descend to the bottom, they abut against the limiting buffer column 800. The limiting buffer column 800 can provide support when the first platform 200 and the second platform 300 descend to the bottom, preventing the platforms from directly hitting the bottom of the pool.

Although this application has been described in detail with reference to examples, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing examples or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
