Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of water diversion monitoring technology, specifically relating to a water diversion equipment monitor based on the Internet of Things. Background Technology

[0002] Runoff regulation refers to measures taken through dams, pumping stations, or other water diversion equipment to intercept, reduce, or stagger floodwater flow, thereby regulating the amount of water entering the river. In other words, it uses engineering measures to maintain rainfall or river flow at a stable, required level. Runoff regulation can improve water resource utilization and has wide applications in flood control, irrigation, power generation, water supply, and urban water source development.

[0003] Run-of-river hydropower stations are commonly used water diversion devices for runoff regulation. To better manage their operation, monitoring and management are necessary. For example, Chinese utility model patent CN207460389U discloses a remote ecological flow monitoring system for run-of-river hydropower stations. This system includes a power supply system, a data acquisition system, a data storage system, a data transmission system, and a data receiving system. The data acquisition system collects video signals, which are then wirelessly transmitted via the data transmission system. The data receiving system receives the collected data and displays it in real time, thus enabling remote monitoring and management of the run-of-river hydropower station and meeting monitoring and management needs to a certain extent.

[0004] However, since the video monitoring device of the monitoring system is fixed on the bank of the water diversion channel by a column, when the river floods or rainfall is heavy, the water level of the channel will rise, which will submerge the video monitoring device and cause damage to it, thus affecting the normal monitoring of the run-of-river hydropower station.

[0005] Therefore, to address the aforementioned technical issues, it is necessary to provide an IoT-based water diversion equipment monitor. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide an Internet of Things-based water diversion equipment monitor to solve the problem of the aforementioned video monitoring device being submerged.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, an embodiment of the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0008] An Internet of Things (IoT) based water diversion device monitor includes a base, a mounting rod, a floating mechanism, and an air cushion mechanism;

[0009] A support plate is fixedly connected to the base, and the support plate is provided with a locking groove;

[0010] The mounting rod is located on the upper side of the support plate, and a monitoring camera, a solar panel, and a control box are mounted on the mounting rod. The monitoring camera, solar panel, and control box are electrically connected to each other.

[0011] The floating mechanism is located at one end of the mounting rod near the bearing plate. The floating mechanism includes a floating platform, a fixed rod connected to the center of the bottom of the floating platform, an adsorption plate connected to the fixed rod, the adsorption plate being inserted into the locking groove, an iron core inside the fixed rod, a coil wound around the outside of the iron core, the coil being electrically connected to the solar panel and the control box, and a clearance groove at the bottom of the floating platform.

[0012] The air cushion mechanism is mounted on the floating platform and is used to lift the mounting rod and the floating mechanism.

[0013] Furthermore, the locking groove is provided with a drain hole, and the locking groove is connected to the drain hole to prevent river water from accumulating in the locking groove and to prevent river water from corroding the adsorption plate when it is inserted.

[0014] Furthermore, the control box is equipped with an intelligent unit for data transmission and reception, enabling staff to remotely monitor and manage the runoff-type hydropower station.

[0015] The intelligent unit includes a data storage system, a data transceiver system, and an early warning system. The data storage system is used to store data collected by the surveillance camera. The data transceiver system is used to send and receive data signals. The early warning system is used to obtain weather or hydrological information from the Internet and to control the operation of the floating mechanism and the air cushion mechanism.

[0016] Furthermore, the floating platform is made of polyethylene, which allows it to float on the surface of the river water.

[0017] Both the support plate and the adsorption plate are made of magnetic metal. When the coil is energized, the iron core generates a strong magnetic force under the action of the energized coil, which in turn makes the adsorption plate magnetic. When the adsorption plate is inserted into the locking groove, the adsorption plate will contact the support plate, thereby fixing the base and the mounting rod.

[0018] Furthermore, the air cushion mechanism includes a mounting box for mounting a lifting fan, the mounting box being connected between the mounting rod and the floating platform;

[0019] The installation box is equipped with a lifting fan, which is electrically connected to the control box. When the lifting fan is running, it draws in outside gas through the through hole and delivers it to the annular pipe through the gas supply pipe. The gas in the annular pipe is discharged through the nozzle to form an air cushion between the floating platform and the river water surface, thereby making the floating platform float on the river water surface and preventing the monitoring camera, solar panel and control box on the installation pole from being submerged.

[0020] The mounting box has multiple through holes on its side wall to facilitate the extraction of outside air by the lifting fan.

[0021] Furthermore, a pair of air supply pipes are connected to the mounting box. The air supply pipes are located inside the floating platform and are used to transport external gas drawn by the lifting fan.

[0022] The avoidance groove is equipped with an annular pipe, and one end of the gas supply pipe is connected to the annular pipe. The annular pipe is equipped with multiple nozzles evenly distributed around its circumference. The gas supplied by the gas supply pipe is evenly discharged around its circumference through the annular pipe and the nozzles to form a stable air cushion between the floating platform and the river water surface, thereby enabling the floating platform to float stably and ensuring the safety of the monitoring camera, solar panel and control box.

[0023] Furthermore, the floating platform is connected to a circumferentially evenly distributed nylon pad, which is located on the outside of the support plate to block the exhaust of the gas ejected by the nozzle, so that the gas ejected by the nozzle can form an air cushion between the floating platform and the river water surface, thereby suspending the floating platform and preventing it from being submerged by the river water.

[0024] The nylon pad has through-holes for ventilation, allowing gas inside the nozzle to slowly escape, forming an air cushion that suspends the floating platform.

[0025] Furthermore, the floating platform is provided with an installation slot and a pair of winding cavities, the pair of winding cavities being symmetrical about the installation slot. The installation slot is used to install the motor, and the winding cavities are used to accommodate the winding disc.

[0026] An electric motor is installed in the mounting slot, and a helical gear is connected to the electric motor. The electric motor is used to drive the winding disc to rotate, thereby winding or releasing the pull rope.

[0027] Furthermore, a connecting rod is rotatably provided inside the floating platform for connecting the helical gear II and the winding disc;

[0028] The connecting rod is connected to a second helical gear, which meshes with the first helical gear. When the motor is running, the motor drives the connecting rod to rotate through the meshing of the first and second helical gears. The rotating connecting rod can drive the second helical gear to rotate, which is then used to wind or release the rope.

[0029] The connecting rod is connected to a winding disc at one end inside the winding cavity for winding the pull rope;

[0030] A pull rope is wound on the winding reel, and one end of the pull rope is connected to the support plate. The pull rope can be used to fix the floating platform relative to the support plate, so as to prevent the floating platform from being washed away by the river water and ensure the safety of the monitoring camera, solar panel and control box, so that the monitoring camera can better monitor the operation of the run-of-river hydropower station.

[0031] Furthermore, the outer wall of the floating platform is connected with a hollow sleeve to increase the stability of the floating platform when it is suspended, thereby ensuring the safety of the monitoring camera, solar panel and control box;

[0032] The hollow sleeve is equipped with multiple connecting pipes, allowing river water from the outside to enter the hollow sleeve through these pipes. When the lifting fan is not running, the floating platform can float on the surface of the river water. Some river water can enter the hollow sleeve through the connecting pipes, thereby increasing the overall weight of the floating platform and enabling it to float stably on the surface of the river water.

[0033] The hollow sleeve is equipped with an air bladder, which can drain the river water inside the hollow sleeve by inflating the air bladder.

[0034] A branch pipe connects the airbag to the air supply pipe. Some of the gas generated when the lifting fan is running can enter the airbag through the branch pipe, causing the airbag to inflate.

[0035] The airbag is connected to an exhaust pipe for discharging the gas inside the airbag;

[0036] Both the branch pipe and the exhaust pipe are equipped with control valves to control the opening and closing of the branch pipe and the exhaust pipe.

[0037] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0038] By setting up corresponding mechanisms, this invention can improve the flood prevention effect of the video monitoring device for run-of-river hydropower stations, prevent the video monitoring device from being submerged by river water, and thus ensure the safety of the video monitoring device and its normal monitoring effect on the run-of-river hydropower station.

[0052] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, these embodiments do not limit the present invention, and any structural, methodological, or functional modifications made by those skilled in the art based on these embodiments are included within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0053] This invention discloses an Internet of Things (IoT) based water diversion equipment monitor, with reference to... Figures 1-11 As shown, it includes a base 1, a mounting rod 2, a floating mechanism 3, and an air cushion mechanism 4.

[0054] The base 1 is fixedly connected to a support plate 101. When the river water level is low, the support plate 101 is used to support the installation rod 2 and the floating mechanism 3 so that the monitoring camera 201 can monitor the operation of the runoff-type hydropower station.

[0055] Preferably, a liquid level sensor is provided on the outer wall of the support plate 101 to monitor the liquid level in the river during the flood season. That is, when the liquid level sensor detects a high liquid level, it indicates that the river is in a high flood season. In order to prevent the monitoring camera 201, solar panel 202 and control box 203 from being flooded, the lifting fan 402 needs to be activated immediately. Using the air cushion principle, the mounting rod 2 and the floating mechanism 3 are raised as a whole.

[0056] In addition, the support plate 101 is provided with a locking groove 102 for the insertion of the adsorption plate 303 so that the floating platform 301 and the support plate 101 can be firmly in contact, ensuring the overall stability, and thus ensuring that the monitoring camera 201 can stably monitor the run-of-river hydropower station.

[0057] Specifically, the locking groove 102 is provided with a drain hole 103, and the locking groove 102 is connected to the drain hole 103. When the river water level recedes, it prevents river water from accumulating in the locking groove 102. Consequently, when the adsorption plate 303 is reinserted into the locking groove 102, it prevents river water from corroding the adsorption plate 303, ensuring the service life of the adsorption plate 303. At the same time, it also ensures the adsorption effect between the adsorption plate 303 and the support plate 101.

[0058] refer to Figures 1-11 As shown, mounting rod 2 is located on the upper side of support plate 101, and a monitoring camera 201, a solar panel 202, and a control box 203 are mounted on mounting rod 2. Monitoring camera 201 is used to monitor the operation of the runoff-type hydropower station, enabling staff to better manage the river runoff ecosystem. Solar panel 202 converts solar energy into electrical energy, which then powers the monitoring camera 201 and control box 203. Control box 203 controls the operation of monitoring camera 201, solar panel 202, and lifting fan 402.

[0059] Preferably, the surveillance camera 201, the solar panel 202, and the control box 203 are electrically connected to each other.

[0060] The control box 203 is equipped with an intelligent unit, which is used to transmit and receive monitoring data from the surveillance camera 201, so that staff can remotely monitor and manage the runoff-type hydropower station.

[0061] In addition, the intelligent unit includes a data storage system, a data transceiver system, and an early warning system. The data storage system is used to store data collected by the surveillance camera 201, the data transceiver system is used to send and receive data signals, and the early warning system is used to obtain weather or hydrological information from the Internet and to control the operation of the floating mechanism 3 and the air cushion mechanism 4.

[0062] Preferably, the data transceiver system can transmit data remotely via Wi-Fi and 5G.

[0063] Specifically, the early warning system includes a processor, a browsing unit, and an alarm. The browsing unit is connected to the Internet to obtain weather and hydrological information from the Internet. The processor performs early warning processing based on the information obtained by the browsing unit. The alarm is used to notify staff that the current location has been flooded so that subsequent maintenance can be carried out.

[0064] For example, if the browsing unit obtains the location of the surveillance camera 201 and the water flow is expected to be high in the next few hours during the flood season, in order to prevent the surveillance camera 201, solar panel 202 and control box 203 from being flooded, the control box 203 will shut down some non-essential equipment before the flood season arrives to reduce energy consumption. At the same time, the solar panel 202 will also charge the battery so that the battery can subsequently power the lifting fan 402.

[0065] By setting up an early warning system, the overall level of intelligence can be improved, and the monitoring camera 201, solar panel 202 and control box 203 can be prevented from being flooded.

[0066] Furthermore, the mounting rod 2 is equipped with a battery to store the electrical energy converted by the solar panel 202. In rainy weather or at night, the battery can power the control box 203 and the lifting fan 402.

[0067] refer to Figures 1-11 As shown, the floating mechanism 3 is located at one end of the mounting rod 2 near the bearing plate 101. The floating mechanism 3 can cooperate with the bearing plate 101 so that when the river is not in flood season, the mounting rod 2 and the floating mechanism 3 can be stably installed on the bearing plate 101, thereby ensuring the stability of the monitoring camera 201, the solar panel 202 and the control box 203, so that the monitoring camera 201 can better monitor and manage the runoff-diversion hydropower station.

[0068] On the other hand, it can be used in conjunction with the air cushion mechanism 4 to lift the installation pole 2 and the floating mechanism 3 when the river is flooded, so as to prevent the monitoring camera 201, solar panel 202 and control box 203 from being flooded.

[0069] It can also be used in conjunction with airbag 5 to increase the stability of the floating platform 301 when it is floating, and to improve the flood protection effect of the monitoring camera 201, solar panel 202 and control box 203.

[0070] The floating mechanism 3 includes a floating platform 301 for mounting the air cushion mechanism 4.

[0071] Preferably, the floating platform 301 is made of polyethylene, which allows the floating platform 301 to float on the surface of the river water during the flood season, thereby preventing the monitoring camera 201, solar panel 202 and control box 203 from being submerged and ensuring the safety of the monitoring camera 201.

[0072] The diameter of the floating platform 301 is larger than the diameter of the support plate 101 to ensure the stability of the lifting of the mounting rod 2 by the floating platform 301 and to prevent the mounting rod 2 from tilting when the floating platform 301 is lifted, thereby ensuring the safety of the monitoring camera 201, the solar panel 202 and the control box 203.

[0073] In addition, a fixing rod 302 is connected to the center of the bottom of the floating platform 301. The fixing rod 302 is used to install the iron core 304 and the coil 305, and also to connect the adsorption plate 303.

[0074] Specifically, an adsorption plate 303 is connected to the fixing rod 302, and the adsorption plate 303 is inserted into the engaging slot 102. When the adsorption plate 303 is inserted into the support plate 101, the coil 305 is energized. Under the action of the energized coil 305, the iron core 304 generates a strong magnetic force, which is transmitted to the adsorption plate 303, allowing the adsorption plate 303 and the support plate 101 to attract each other. This ensures the stability of the monitoring camera 201, solar panel 202, and control box 203 when the river is not in flood season.

[0075] Preferably, both the support plate 101 and the adsorption plate 303 are made of magnetic metal, so that when the coil 305 is energized, the adsorption plate 303 and the support plate 101 can attract each other to fix the base 1 and the mounting rod 2, thereby ensuring the stability and safety of the monitoring camera 201, the solar panel 202 and the control box 203, so that the monitoring camera 201 can better monitor and manage the runoff-type hydropower station.

[0076] The outer sides of the bearing plate 101, the fixing rod 302 and the adsorption plate 303 are all provided with anti-corrosion layers to prevent the bearing plate 101, the fixing rod 302 and the adsorption plate 303 from being corroded by river water moisture.

[0077] In addition, the fixing rod 302 has an iron core 304 inside, and a coil 305 is wound around the outside of the iron core 304. The coil 305 is electrically connected to the solar panel 202 and the control box 203. When the coil 305 is energized, the iron core 304 generates a magnetic force under the action of the energized coil 305. The magnetic force causes the support plate 101 and the floating platform 301 to attract each other, thereby fixing the support plate 101 and the floating platform 301 and ensuring the stability and safety of the monitoring camera 201, solar panel 202 and control box 203 on the mounting rod 2.

[0078] Furthermore, the bottom of the floating platform 301 is provided with a clearance groove 306 to accommodate the annular tube 405.

[0079] Preferably, the diameter of the clearance groove 306 is smaller than the diameter of the adsorption plate 303, so that the gas sprayed by the nozzle 406 can contact the adsorption plate 303 to block the gas from being discharged. At the same time, an air cushion can be formed between the floating platform 301 and the river water surface to lift the floating platform 301.

[0080] refer to Figures 1-11 As shown, the air cushion mechanism 4 is installed on the floating platform 301. When the river is in flood season, it is used to lift the installation rod 2 and the floating mechanism 3 to prevent the monitoring camera 201, solar panel 202 and control box 203 from being flooded.

[0081] The air cushion mechanism 4 includes a mounting box 401, which is used to mount the lifting fan 402. The mounting box 401 is connected between the mounting rod 2 and the floating platform 301.

[0082] Additionally, a lifting fan 402 is installed inside the mounting box 401, and the lifting fan 402 is electrically connected to the control box 203. When the lifting fan 402 is running, it draws in external gas through the through hole 403, and the generated high-pressure gas is transported to the annular pipe 405 through the gas delivery pipe 404. The gas in the annular pipe 405 is discharged through the nozzle 406. The discharged gas is blocked by the adsorption plate 303 and the nylon pad 407, and is slowly released through the vent holes 408 on the nylon pad 407. This creates an air cushion between the floating platform 301 and the river water surface, which is used to lift the floating platform 301 and the mounting rod 2, preventing the monitoring camera 201, solar panel 202, and control box 203 on the mounting rod 2 from being submerged.

[0083] Specifically, the side wall of the mounting box 401 is provided with multiple through holes 403 to facilitate the lifting fan 402 to draw in external gas.

[0084] Preferably, by providing a through hole 403 on the side wall, the impact of rainwater on the lifting fan 402 can be effectively avoided, ensuring the safety of the lifting fan 402 in use.

[0085] In addition, a pair of air supply pipes 404 are connected to the mounting box 401. The air supply pipes 404 are located inside the floating platform 301 and are used to transport high-pressure gas generated by the lifting fan 402 in order to lift the floating platform 301 and the mounting rod 2.

[0086] A pair of gas supply pipes 404 can accelerate the efficiency of high-pressure gas entering the annular pipe 405, so that an air cushion can be quickly formed between the floating platform 301 and the river water surface.

[0087] refer to Figures 1-11 As shown, an annular pipe 405 is provided inside the clearance groove 306. One end of the gas supply pipe 404 is connected to the annular pipe 405, and multiple circumferentially evenly distributed nozzles 406 are provided on the annular pipe 405. The high-pressure gas supplied by the gas supply pipe 404 is evenly discharged circumferentially through the multiple nozzles 406 on the annular pipe 405 to form a stable air cushion between the floating platform 301 and the river water surface, thereby stabilizing the lifting of the floating platform 301 and ensuring the safety of the monitoring camera 201, solar panel 202 and control box 203 when they are lifted.

[0088] Preferably, the nozzle 406 is set vertically downward to ensure that the high-pressure gas ejected by the nozzle 406 can contact the adsorption plate 303 to form a stable air cushion.

[0089] The floating platform 301 is connected to a circumferentially distributed nylon pad 407, which is located on the outside of the support plate 101. The nylon pad 407 is used to block the discharge of high-pressure gas ejected by the nozzle 406, so that the high-pressure gas ejected by the nozzle 406 can form an air cushion between the floating platform 301 and the river water surface, thereby raising the floating platform 301 and preventing the monitoring camera 201, solar panel 202 and control box 203 from being submerged by the river water.

[0090] Furthermore, the nylon pad 407 can also protect the adsorption plate 303 and the nozzle 406. That is, when there is a flood season in the river, there may be floating objects in the river. The nylon pad 407 can block the floating objects and prevent them from hitting the adsorption plate 303 or causing the nozzle 406 to be blocked, thus improving the overall safety of use.

[0091] Of course, the nylon pad 407 can also protect the locking slot 102, according to the appendix to this application. Figure 8 It is known that the circumference diameter of the multiple nylon pads 407 is larger than the diameter of the support plate 101. When the adsorption plate 303 is inserted into the locking groove 102, the hanging nylon pads 407 can cover the outside of the support plate 101, thereby effectively reducing the probability of external dust and impurities entering the locking groove 102, ensuring the adsorption effect between the adsorption plate 303 and the support plate 101, and thus ensuring the installation firmness of the mounting rod 2.

[0092] In addition, the nylon pad 407 has a through-hole vent 408. This allows the gas between the floating platform 301 and the river water surface to be slowly discharged, forming a stable air cushion, which is then used to lift the floating platform 301 and the mounting rod 2.

[0093] Specifically, the floating platform 301 is provided with an installation groove 307 and a pair of winding cavities 308, which are symmetrical about the installation groove 307. The installation groove 307 is used to install the motor 409, and the winding cavities 308 are used to accommodate the winding disc 413.

[0094] In addition, a motor 409 is installed in the mounting slot 307, and a helical gear 410 is connected to the motor 409. The motor 409 is used to drive the winding disc 413 to rotate, and thus to wind or release the pull rope 414.

[0095] Preferably, motor 409 is a servo motor.

[0096] When the floating platform 301 is raised, the motor 409 drives the winding disc 413 to release the pull rope 414 so that the floating platform 301 can be raised with the river water surface, avoiding the pulling effect of the pull rope 414 when the floating platform 301 is raised.

[0097] When the floating platform 301 descends, the motor 409 drives the winding disc 413 to wind the pull rope 414, which is used to wind up the pull rope 414 and avoid the pull rope 414 from becoming tangled.

[0098] refer to Figures 1-11 As shown, a connecting rod 411 is rotatably provided inside the floating platform 301 for connecting the helical gear 412 and the winding disc 413.

[0099] The connecting rod 411 is connected to a helical gear 412, which meshes with the helical gear 410. When the motor 409 is running, the motor 409 drives the connecting rod 411 to rotate through the meshing of the helical gears 410 and 412. The rotating connecting rod 411 drives the pair of helical gears 412 to rotate synchronously, thereby enabling the synchronous winding or release of the pair of pull ropes 414.

[0100] In addition, one end of the connecting rod 411 located inside the winding cavity 308 is connected to a winding disc 413 for winding the pull rope 414.

[0101] Specifically, a pull rope 414 is wound on the winding disc 413, and one end of the pull rope 414 is connected to the support plate 101. The pull rope 414 can be used to fix the floating platform 301 relative to the support plate 101, preventing the floating platform 301 from being washed away by the river water, thereby ensuring the safety of the monitoring camera 201, solar panel 202 and control box 203, so that the monitoring camera 201 can better monitor the operation of the run-of-river hydropower station.

[0102] By releasing the rope 414, the floating platform 301 can also be raised along with the river water level, effectively preventing the monitoring camera 201, solar panel 202 and control box 203 from being submerged, and ensuring the safety of the monitoring camera 201, solar panel 202 and control box 203.

[0103] refer to Figures 1-11 As shown, a hollow sleeve 309 is connected to the outer wall of the floating platform 301. When the river water level stabilizes, the lifting fan 402 stops operating. At this time, the installation rod 2 can be floated on the river water surface using the floating platform 301. Figure 8 The state shown is as follows. The hollow sleeve 309 can increase the stability of the floating platform 301 when it floats, thereby preventing the mounting rod 2 from tipping over and ensuring the safety of the monitoring camera 201, solar panel 202 and control box 203.

[0104] By stopping the operation of the lifting fan 402 and utilizing the floating platform 301 and the hollow sleeve 309, the excessive consumption of electricity by the lifting fan 402 can be effectively avoided, thus saving energy resources.

[0105] The hollow sleeve 309 is equipped with multiple connecting pipes 310, allowing river water to enter the hollow sleeve 309 through these pipes. When the lifting fan 402 is not running, the floating platform 301 can float on the surface of the river water. Some river water can enter the hollow sleeve 309 through the connecting pipes 310, thereby increasing the overall counterweight of the floating platform 301. This ensures that the floating platform 301 can float stably on the surface of the river water, preventing the mounting rod 2 from tilting and ensuring the safety of the monitoring camera 201, solar panel 202, and control box 203.

[0106] In addition, the hollow sleeve 309 is equipped with an air bladder 5. The expansion and contraction of the air bladder 5 can control the water volume inside the hollow sleeve 309 so as to realize the change of the counterweight of the floating platform 301.

[0107] When the airbag 5 contracts, it does not occupy the internal space of the hollow sleeve 309. River water can enter the hollow sleeve 309 through the connecting pipe 310, which increases the water volume inside the hollow sleeve 309, thus increasing the overall counterweight of the floating platform 301.

[0108] When the airbag 5 inflates, it occupies the internal space of the hollow sleeve 309, and there is less river water inside the hollow sleeve 309, so the overall counterweight of the floating platform 301 becomes smaller.

[0109] The expansion of airbag 5 can also enable the rapid discharge of inland river water from hollow sleeve 309.

[0110] Specifically, a branch pipe is connected between the airbag 5 and the air supply pipe 404. Some of the gas generated by the lifting fan 402 during operation can enter the airbag 5 through the branch pipe, causing the airbag 5 to inflate.

[0111] In addition, an exhaust pipe 501 is connected to the airbag 5 to discharge the gas inside the airbag 5. When the airbag 5 needs to contract, the control valve 502 on the exhaust pipe 501 is opened, and the gas inside the airbag 5 is discharged through the exhaust pipe 501. At this time, the airbag 5 will contract.

[0112] Furthermore, control valves 502 are installed on both the branch pipe and the exhaust pipe 501 to control their opening and closing. When the control valve 502 on the branch pipe is closed, it prevents the lifting fan 402 from filling the airbag 5 with excessive gas, thus preventing the airbag 5 from exploding. When the control valve 502 on the exhaust pipe 501 is closed, it maintains the state of the airbag 5.

[0113] In practical use, the early warning system inside the control box 203 can obtain weather and hydrological information about the location of the monitoring camera 201 in advance. If there is a possibility of flooding, the control box 203 will shut down some non-essential equipment to reduce overall energy consumption. At the same time, the solar panel 202 will accelerate the charging of the battery so that the battery can subsequently power the lifting fan 402.

[0114] During the flood season, the liquid level is monitored using a liquid level sensor on the floating platform 301. When the liquid level is detected, the lifting fan 402 operates, drawing in external gas through the through-hole 403. The resulting high-pressure gas is transported through the gas supply pipe 404 to the annular pipe 405 and discharged through multiple nozzles 406. The discharged gas is blocked by the adsorption plate 303 and the nylon pad 407, and slowly released through the vent holes 408 on the nylon pad 407. This creates an air cushion between the floating platform 301 and the river water surface, which is used to lift the floating platform 301 and the mounting rod 2, preventing the monitoring camera 201, solar panel 202, and control box 203 on the mounting rod 2 from being submerged.

[0115] When the floating platform 301 is raised, the first helical gear 410 operates. Through the meshing of the first helical gear 410 and the second helical gear 412, the connecting rod 411 rotates. The connecting rod 411 drives a pair of winding discs 413 to rotate, and the winding discs 413 release the pull rope 414, giving the floating platform 301 sufficient lifting space. At the same time, the pull rope 414 ensures that the floating platform 301 can only be raised and lowered vertically, preventing the floating platform 301 and the mounting rod 2 from being washed away by the river water, thus ensuring the overall safety of use.

[0116] When the river level stabilizes, the lifting fan 402 shuts off, and the floating platform 301 floats on the river surface. River water enters the hollow sleeve 309 through the connecting pipe 310 to increase the overall counterweight of the floating platform 301, preventing the mounting rod 2 from tilting and ensuring the safety of the monitoring camera 201, solar panel 202, and control box 203.

[0117] If the overall buoyancy of the floating platform 301 is insufficient, the lifting fan 402 needs to be operated. The gas generated by the lifting fan 402 enters the air bladder 5 through the branch pipe, causing the air bladder 5 to inflate. The inflated air bladder 5 can expel some of the river water from the hollow sleeve 309, increasing the buoyancy of the floating platform 301 while also reducing the overall counterweight of the floating platform 301, allowing the floating platform 301 to float stably on the river surface.

[0118] As the river water level drops, the floating platform 301 descends along with the water level. The motor 409 needs to operate intermittently, which in turn drives the winding disc 413 to wind the pull rope 414, keeping the pull rope 414 taut at all times, preventing the pull rope 414 from becoming tangled, and also preventing the floating platform 301 from being washed away.

[0119] When the river water level is below the locking groove 102, the adsorption plate 303 will be inserted into the locking groove 102 under the action of the pull rope 414. At this time, the river water in the hollow sleeve 309 will be discharged through the connecting pipe 310. The control valve 502 on the exhaust pipe 501 is opened, and the gas in the airbag 5 is discharged through the exhaust pipe 501. The coil 305 is energized by the control box 203. The iron core 304 generates a magnetic force under the action of the energized coil 305. The magnetic force is transmitted to the adsorption plate 303, so that the adsorption plate 303 and the support plate 101 can attract each other. This ensures the firm connection between the support plate 101 and the floating platform 301, and ensures the safe use of the monitoring camera 201, solar panel 202 and control box 203, so as to better monitor the run-of-river hydropower station.

[0120] The alarm can alert staff that there is an excessive river flow during the flood season at the corresponding monitoring camera 201, so that staff can promptly inspect and repair the base 1, monitoring camera 201, solar panel 202, control box 203, floating mechanism 3, and air cushion mechanism 4.
