[0003] A search revealed Chinese patent application number 202311618995.3, which discloses a geological disaster rainfall monitoring and early warning device. Technical problem: Debris flow early warning devices cannot perform multi-faceted monitoring, and their wide distribution makes it difficult to accurately monitor the intensity of debris flows. Technical solution: A geological disaster rainfall monitoring and early warning device includes a housing and a rain collection bucket. An early warning cavity is formed inside the housing. A rain collection bucket is fixedly installed at the center of the upper surface of the housing.

[0029] Both the collection bucket 21 and the box 23 are equipped with drain pipes at the bottom, and solenoid valves are installed on the drain pipes. When the solenoid valves are opened, rainwater can be discharged.
[0030] The working principle of this invention is as follows: First, fix the base plate 1 to the ground with the first anchor rod 6. Then, insert the square rod 2 into the square hole of the base plate 1 through the square tube 3 and extend it into the ground. Adjust the required depth as needed to adjust the installation height of the device. Use the bolt 4 to lock and position it in conjunction with the insertion hole 5 (the insertion hole 5 can also be a threaded hole). By controlling the rotation of the rotating wheel 9, the bevel gear ring 13 can drive the bevel gears 14 and the lead screw 10 to rotate. The position of the support rod 12 can be adjusted up and down by the cooperation between the lead screw 10 and the screw hole seat 11. The auxiliary plate 15 at the other end of the support rod 12 is fixed to the ground by the second anchor rod 16. The support rod 12 is also movably connected to the slide rod 18. At the same time, a spring 20 for buffering is also provided. The cooperation of the support rod 12, the slide rod 18, the auxiliary plate 15 and the second anchor rod 16 can increase the stability of the device after installation. Even when used in harsh environments such as strong winds and heavy rain, the stability and safety of the device can still be guaranteed. The container 23 collects rainwater during rain, and the rainwater is collected at the bottom of the container and transported to the collection tank 21 through the collection pipe. At this time, the liquid level sensor 22 can monitor the amount of rainwater in the collection tank 21.
[0031] This device uses photovoltaic panels 24 to generate electricity. In order to ensure the cleanliness of the surface of photovoltaic panels 24, a rinsing and cleaning component is set up. The water pump 29 in the rinsing component draws rainwater from the box 23 and supplies water to the spray pipe 30. The water is sprayed on the surface of photovoltaic panels 24. With the up and down sliding of the brush plate 25, the photovoltaic panels 24 can be cleaned. The wastewater after cleaning can be discharged from the device through the sewage pipe.
[0032] Motor 32 drives lead screw 31 to rotate, which in turn drives fixed plate 34 and brush plate 25 to move up and down. The up and down movement of brush plate 25 can clean the surface of photovoltaic panel 24. The brush plate 25 is equipped with torsion spring 37 to ensure that it always maintains close contact with photovoltaic panel 24, thereby increasing cleaning efficiency when the brush plate 25 slides up and down. Similarly, sliding plate 35 and fixed plate 34 are kept in close contact by spring sliding shaft 39. The force of the spring can be transmitted to brush plate 25, thereby also ensuring that brush plate 25 maintains close contact with photovoltaic panel 24.
