When erected, the two sets of sensors are installed on the slope wall and the bottom of the channel respectively. When the water flows between the two sets of sensors, the sensors transmit the data to the microcomputer unit in the flow meter and calculate with the data collected by the probe;
[0003] The existing open channel flow device still has the following defects when in use:
[0004] On the one hand, in order to increase the power endurance of flow meters and sensors, some metering devices are also equipped with solar panels, such as a box-less multi-channel ultrasonic open channel flow meter published in Publication (Announcement) No. CN212807176U. However, such solar panels do not have an angle adjustment function and cannot be adjusted according to the actual installation conditions, which affects the subsequent light collection of the solar panels.
[0005] On the other hand, it is necessary to excavate fixed weir grooves on the slope wall and bottom of the open channel to place the sensor carrier, which is difficult to construct and may cause structural damage to the open channel. Utility Model Content

[0015] The shock absorbing rubber seat group comprises a shock absorbing rubber seat, a sensor carrier is embedded in the shock absorbing rubber seat, and two ends of the sensor carrier extend to the outside of the shock absorbing rubber seat.
[0016] The shock-absorbing rubber seat assembly further comprises a limiting ear, which is a square cylindrical structure, and a notch corresponding to the wall thickness of the sensor carrier is configured on the open end of the limiting ear.
[0017] The sensor carrier is a U-shaped structure, and a cover plate is clamped at the open end of the sensor carrier. The cover plate is provided with a limiting groove adapted to the sensor; the sensor is sleeved in the sensor carrier and plugged into the limiting groove.

The term "and / or" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more related listed items.
[0034] like Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, the utility model provides a flow metering device with dual-angle adjustable solar panels;
[0035] The solar panel support frame 13 of the solar panel 11 is a U-shaped structure, and the flip adjustment screw 14 passes through both sides of the solar panel support frame 13 and is threadedly connected to the solar panel 11;
[0036] By turning the adjusting screw 14 forward and backward, the connection tightness between the solar panel support frame 13 and the solar panel 11 can be adjusted to achieve the pitch angle adjustment of the solar panel 11;
[0037] The flow meter 1 is installed between the solar panel support frame 13 and the ladder frame 12. The bottom of the solar panel support frame 13 is provided with a plurality of circularly arranged arc-shaped through grooves 133. The rotating adjustment screw 15 passes through the arc-shaped through grooves 133 and is threadedly connected to the flow meter 1.
[0038] By rotating the adjusting screw 15 forward and backward, the tightness of the connection between the solar panel support frame 13 and the flow meter 1 can be adjusted to achieve the rotation angle adjustment of the solar panel 11;
[0039] The solar panel 11 can achieve both pitch angle adjustment and rotation angle adjustment.
[0040] The sensor carrier 21 is installed inside the protective recess 4 through a shock-absorbing rubber seat group. The protective recess 4 is a concrete structure, which is built on the slope and bottom of the channel body, thereby avoiding digging fixed weir grooves on the slope and bottom of the channel body, thereby avoiding structural damage to the channel body.
[0041] Specifically, the cover shell 31 of the flow meter 1 is constructed with a plurality of internally threaded recesses 32 sunk along the inner cavity of the flow meter 1, that is, the inner cavity of the recess 32 is designed as an internal thread, so the internally threaded recess 32 is threadedly connected to the rotating adjustment screw 15, thereby realizing the connection between the solar panel support frame 13 and the cover shell 31 of the flow meter 1.
[0042] Specifically, a gasket 19 is also mounted on the rotary adjustment screw 15, one end of the gasket 19 is against the nut of the rotary adjustment screw 15, and the other end is against the solar panel support frame 13 outside the arc-shaped through groove 133. The gasket 19 plays a role in preventing slipping and increasing the force-bearing surface; on the one hand, it has a larger contact area than the nut of the screw 15, which can increase damping and avoid slipping during rotation; on the other hand, it can increase the force-bearing area and avoid the nut with a smaller contact surface directly pressing against the outside of the arc-shaped through groove 133, causing deformation of the arc-shaped through groove 133.
[0043] like Figure 3 to Figure 4 As shown, specifically, the ladder frame 12 includes a V-shaped main ladder 121 and a strip-shaped extension ladder 122, the flow meter 1 is fixed on the main ladder 121, and both ends of the main ladder 121 and the extension ladder 122 are fixedly connected by a perforated channel steel 16 and a locking screw 17;
[0044] One end of one of the extension ladders 122 is used to abut the slope wall of the channel body, and one end of the other extension ladder 122 is used to abut the bottom of the channel body. Through the design that the two extension ladders 122 respectively abut the slope wall and the bottom of the channel body, the solar panel 11 is erected above the channel body. When the metering point needs to be replaced, the main ladder and the extension ladder are separated by twisting the locking screws, and they are assembled and erected after reaching the metering point.
[0045] Specifically, the bottom of the extended ladder 122 is configured with a fixing ear 18 , which is connected to the slope wall of the channel body after passing through the ear hole of the fixing ear 18 through an anchor screw, thereby improving the connection stability of the ladder frame 12 .
[0046] like Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the shock absorbing rubber seat assembly includes a shock absorbing rubber seat 22, a sensor carrier 21 is embedded in the shock absorbing rubber seat 22, and both ends of the sensor carrier 21 extend to the outside of the shock absorbing rubber seat 22;
[0047] The sensor carrier 21 is embedded in the shock-absorbing rubber seat 22. The width of the shock-absorbing rubber seat 22 corresponds to the width of the inner wall of the protective recess 4. Through the design of the shock-absorbing rubber seat 22, during installation, if it hits the inner wall of the protective recess 4, it can play a buffering and energy release role to prevent the sensor 2 on the sensor carrier 21 from being displaced due to impact; both ends of the sensor carrier 21 extend to the outside of the shock-absorbing rubber seat 22, which are used to clamp the limiting ears 23. The two groups of limiting ears 23 are clamped at the two ends of the shock-absorbing rubber seat 22, and the long screws 27 penetrate the through holes on the fixing plate 26 on both sides of the bottom of the limiting ears 23, thereby realizing the fixation of the sensor carrier 21 on the channel body.
[0048] The shock-absorbing rubber seat group also includes a limiting ear 23, which is a square cylindrical structure. A slot 231 corresponding to the wall thickness of the sensor carrier 21 is constructed on the open end of the limiting ear 23. The two groups of limiting ears 23 are designed to face each other and are clamped with the two ends of the sensor carrier 21 through the slot 231.
[0049] Specifically, the sensor carrier 21 is a U-shaped structure, and a cover plate 24 is clamped at the open end of the sensor carrier 21. The cover plate 24 is provided with a limiting groove 25 adapted to the sensor 2; the sensor 2 is mounted in the sensor carrier 21 and plugged into the limiting groove 25, thereby achieving the same angle orientation of several sensors 2, which facilitates the alignment of the sensors 2 on the slope wall and the bottom of the channel body.
[0050] Specifically, the limiting ear 23 is installed on the fixing plate 26. Since the shock-absorbing rubber seat 22 has a certain thickness, the fixing plate 26 plays a role in raising the limiting ear 23, so that the limiting ear 23 and the sensor carrier 21 are in the same horizontal plane.
[0051] The working principle and working process of the utility model are as follows:
[0052] By turning the adjusting screw 14 forward and backward, the connection tightness between the solar panel support frame 13 and the solar panel 11 can be adjusted to achieve the pitch angle adjustment of the solar panel 11;
[0053] By rotating the adjusting screw 15 forward and backward, the tightness of the connection between the solar panel support frame 13 and the flow meter 1 can be adjusted to achieve the rotation angle adjustment of the solar panel 11;
[0054] When installing the flow meter 1 and the solar panel 11, the main ladder 12 and the extension ladder 122 are fastened to each other by twisting the locking screws, and then one end of one of the extension ladders 122 abuts against the slope wall of the channel body, and one end of the other extension ladder 122 abuts against the bottom of the channel body. The two extension ladders 122 are designed to abut against the slope wall and the bottom of the channel body respectively, and then the anchor screws are passed through the ear holes of the fixing ears 18 and connected to the slope wall of the channel body, and the flow meter 1 and the solar panel 11 are set up above the channel body;
[0055] When installing the sensor carrier 21, first place the sensor carrier 21 in the protective recess 4. The design of the shock-absorbing rubber seat 22 can play a buffering and energy release role if it hits the inner wall of the protective recess 4 during installation, thereby preventing the sensor 2 on the sensor carrier 21 from being displaced due to impact. The two groups of limiting ears 23 are stuck at both ends of the shock-absorbing rubber seat 22, and long screws 27 are passed through the through holes on the fixing plates 26 on both sides of the bottom of the limiting ears 23, thereby realizing the fixation of the sensor carrier 21 on the channel body.
[0056] The above embodiments of the utility model are described in detail, but the above contents are only preferred embodiments of the utility model and cannot be considered to limit the scope of implementation of the utility model. All equivalent changes and improvements made within the scope of the utility model should still fall within the scope of this patent.
