DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0023] In order to further understand the content of the utility model, the utility model is described in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0024] Combination Figure 1-Figure 5 A water body monitoring station for monitoring salinity difference in estuary waters comprises a floating raft 1, an anchor rope 5 is pulled on the lower surface of the floating raft 1, an anchor body 51 is connected to the end of the anchor rope 5, a seasonal wind monitoring mechanism 2 and a water quality monitoring mechanism 3 are arranged on the upper surface of the floating raft 1, a power supply mechanism 4 is fixedly installed on the back side of the floating raft 1 in the pulling direction of the anchor rope 5, a traction groove 13 is opened on the lower surface of the floating raft 1, a rotating winch 7 is arranged on the top of the traction groove 13, a driving motor is connected to the rotating shaft of the winch 7, the anchor rope 5 is connected to the winch 7, and an angle measuring mechanism 8 is installed on the inner wall of the traction groove 13 on the upper and lower sides of the anchor rope 5.
[0025] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with embodiments.
[0026] The above working principle and technical effect are as follows: by sinking the anchor body 51 into the lake bottom, the anchor rope 5 pulls the floating raft 1 in the corresponding water area, the water quality monitoring mechanism 3 is used to detect the salinity, temperature and flow rate of the water area, and the seasonal wind monitoring mechanism 2 is used to detect the wind direction and humidity on the lake surface;
[0027] The angle measuring mechanism 8 is set to detect the inclination of the anchor rope 5 in the water and cooperate with the winch 7 to make adaptive adjustments. When the river surface of the water area drops, the inclination angle of the anchor rope 5 becomes larger, and it will contact and push the angle measuring mechanism 8 above. At this time, the winch 7 reels the anchor rope 5, shortening the length of the anchor rope 5 until the anchor rope 5 returns to a preset angle. When the river surface of the water area rises, the inclination angle of the anchor rope 5 becomes smaller, and it will contact the angle measuring mechanism 8 below. At this time, the winch 7 releases the anchor rope 5, increases the length of the anchor rope 5, and restores the anchor rope 5 to a preset angle. In this way, the pulling direction of the anchor rope 5 on the raft 1 is maintained within the corresponding range, which is convenient for improving the stability of the anchor rope 5 pulling the raft 1. The winch 7 controls the retraction and release of the anchor rope 5 to prevent the anchor rope 5 from being too long and the range of activity of the raft 1 from being too large, resulting in its poor adaptability to the river channel.
[0028] In one embodiment, the traction groove 13 is provided on a side of the floating raft 1 which is closer to the center of gravity.
[0029] The above working principle and technical effect are as follows: since the anchor rope 5 is connected to the front side of the center of the raft 1, the raft 1 is located upstream of the water flow under the influence of the water flow, and the front end of the raft 1 is slightly tilted and the tail is lowered, which makes the flowing water flow also play a role in providing more stable support for the raft 1, thereby improving the wave resistance and stability of the raft 1 in the water area.
[0030] In one embodiment, the head of the floating raft 1 is provided with a lower surface inclined to both sides, and two expansion grooves 12 are symmetrically opened on the lower surface. The expansion grooves 12 are arranged from narrow to wide from the head to the tail of the floating raft 1.
[0031] The above working principle and technical effect are as follows: by setting the head of the raft 1 to be pointed, its wave-breaking ability is improved, and the lower side expansion groove 12 is set from narrow to wide, which increases the contact area with the water, increases the thrust of the flowing water on the raft 1, and further improves the stability of the raft 1 on the water surface.
[0032] In one embodiment, a warning mechanism 6 is fixedly provided at the front end of the floating raft 1 , and the warning mechanism 6 comprises an extension rod 61 fixedly installed transversely at the front end of the floating raft 1 , and a vertically installed warning flag 62 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the extension rod 61 .
[0033] The above working principle and technical effect are as follows: when the raft 1 floats on the water, affected by the water flow, the extension rod 61 will be above the anchor rope 5. The anchor rope 5 directly below the extension rod 61 is closer to the water surface. By setting the warning flag 62, a warning can be issued for this section of the anchor rope 5 to prevent the anchor rope 5 in this area from being entangled with passing ships.
[0034] In one embodiment, the angle measuring mechanism 8 includes a support rod 82 rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the traction groove 13, a goniometer 83 is provided on the rotation axis, and a contact rod 81 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the support rod 82, and the contact rod 81 is vertically arranged to the anchor rope 5 in a top view.
[0035] The above working principle and technical effect are as follows: the anchor rope 5 is tilted at an angle so as to contact the contact rod 81 above or below it, thereby pushing the corresponding support rod 82 to rotate. The goniometer 83 is used to detect the rotation angle of the support rod 82. After reaching the preset angle, the winch 7 is coordinated to control the anchor rope 5 to reel in or release it.
[0036] In one embodiment, the inner wall of the traction groove 13 is opened at a 45-degree angle, and its opening direction is biased towards the pulling direction of the anchor rope 5, and its inner support rod 82 is initially arranged parallel to its side wall.
[0037] The above working principle and technical effect are as follows: the traction groove 13 is opened at a 45-degree angle to adapt to the direction of the pulling force of the anchor rope 5.
[0038] In one embodiment: the power supply mechanism 4 includes a generator 42 fixedly installed on the rear side of the raft 1, and a rotating paddle 41 connected to its output end, the lower half of the rotating paddle 41 is immersed in the lake surface, a gearbox 43 is transmission-connected between the generator 42 and the rotating paddle 41, the input end of the gearbox 43 is coaxially connected to the rotating paddle 41, and the output end thereof is connected to the input end of the generator 42, and the outer surface cover of the generator 42 and the gearbox 43 is provided with an outer cover 44.
[0039] The above working principle and technical effect are as follows: the rotating paddle 41 at the end of the floating raft 1 is driven to rotate by the water flow, thereby driving the generator 42 to generate electricity, and the electricity generated by the generator 42 is stored in the battery to supply power to the subsequent electrical devices on the floating raft 1;
[0040] The gearbox 43 is provided with a plurality of gears and a neutral gear to control the rotation speed of the driving generator 42 and further control the efficiency of the generator 42 in generating electricity. The neutral gear is set to disconnect the transmission between the propeller 41 and the generator 42 after the battery is fully charged, so as to avoid the generator 42 from working for a long time and in vain.
[0041] In one embodiment, a barrier 11 for retaining water is disposed at the edge of the upper surface of the floating raft 1 , a support block 14 is fixedly connected to the back side of the floating raft 1 , and the power supply mechanism 4 is installed on the upper side of the support block 14 .
