Description

[0002] As a common hydrological data monitoring device, water level monitoring device can be divided into contact and non-contact types according to the detection method. The contact water level monitoring device uses a probe, a liquid level transmitter and a liftable pulling component to measure the water level of the water body. The probe is inserted into the water body, and the liquid level transmitter detects the insertion depth of the probe to measure the water level. As an important water conservancy hub, the water level monitoring of the hydropower station is mainly for early warning. There is a water level reminder line engraved on the side wall of the hydropower station. However, the timeliness of observing the water level line through the human eye is poor. Therefore, monitoring and early warning through a water level monitoring device has better timeliness.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a water level monitoring device for a hydropower station includes a gantry 1, a rotating shaft 2 is rotatably installed between the left and right sides of the inner wall of the gantry 1, one end of the rotating shaft 2 passes through the side of the gantry 1, a measuring catheter body 4 is wound on the surface of the rotating shaft 2, one end of the rotating shaft 2 passing through the side of the gantry 1 is provided with a retractable control component 5 for driving the rotating shaft 2 to rotate, the retractable control component 5 is slidably inserted into the side of the gantry 1, a buoy body 6, a bottom floating plate 8 and a top floating plate 9 are slidably mounted on the surface of the gantry 1, the surface of the measuring catheter body 4 is slidably covered with a buoy body 6, a bottom floating plate 8 and a top floating plate 9, the buoy body 6 is fixedly installed between the opposite surfaces of the bottom floating plate 8 and the top floating plate 9, a probe body 7 is fixedly installed on the free end of the measuring catheter body 4, a protective component 10 is slidably inserted on the side of the top floating plate 9, the number of the protective components 10 is two and they are tightly fitted around the outside of the buoy body 6 front and back, and an elastic fixing handle 11 for fixing the protective component 10 is provided on the surface of the top floating plate 9.
[0026] More specifically, when the retractable and unretractable control component 5 is slidably inserted into the side of the gantry 1, the retractable and unretractable control component 5 is fixed and cannot rotate. When the retractable and unretractable control component 5 slips off the side of the gantry 1, the rotating shaft 2 can be driven to rotate by rotating the retractable and unretractable control component 5, so that the measuring catheter body 4 wound on the surface of the rotating shaft 2 is retracted and extended, so that the probe body 7 is at a suitable anchoring depth, and then the retractable and unretractable control component 5 is slidably inserted into the side of the gantry 1 again, so that the probe body 7 can be positioned, and then the water level can be monitored in real time through the cooperation of the measuring catheter body 4, the buoy body 6, the probe body 7 and the external analyzer, and the top floating plate 9 fixedly installed on the top surface of the buoy body 6 and the bottom floating plate fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the buoy body 6 are used. The float plate 8 and the enclosure assembly 10 surrounding the periphery of the buoy body 6 cooperate to provide all-round protection for the buoy body 6 to prevent the buoy body 6 from being damaged by the impact of floating objects in the water during long-term use. At the same time, it effectively isolates metal floating objects to prevent metal objects from interfering with the accuracy of the measurement performed by the buoy body 6 and the measuring catheter body 4 and the probe body 7. Therefore, the water level monitoring accuracy can be effectively ensured under long-term immersion. It is suitable for long-term water level monitoring in hydropower stations. The enclosure assembly 10 is fixed with an elastic fixing handle 11. When the enclosure assembly 10 needs to be cleaned, the elastic fixing handle 11 is pulled to make it slide off the enclosure assembly 10, and the enclosure assembly 10 can be quickly disassembled for cleaning.
[0027] A baffle 3 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the rotating shaft 2. There are two baffles 3 which are arranged opposite to each other on the left and right sides. The measuring catheter body 4 is wound between the two baffles 3. The bottom floating plate 8, the top floating plate 9, the enclosure assembly 10 and the elastic fixed handle 11 are all made of non-metallic materials.
[0028] Specifically, the measuring catheter body 4 is limited by the baffle 3 so that the measuring catheter body 4 is wound in an orderly manner on the surface of the rotating shaft 2. The bottom floating plate 8, the top floating plate 9, the enclosure assembly 10 and the elastic fixed handle 11 are made of non-metallic materials to avoid electromagnetic interference caused by metal materials to the float body 6.
[0029] The retraction and extension control component 5 includes a limit slide groove 501 and a U-shaped handle 503. The limit slide groove 501 is opened inside the end of the rotating shaft 2 that passes through the side of the gantry 1. The limit slider 502 is slidably installed on the inner wall surface of the limit slide groove 501. The U-shaped handle 503 is slidably inserted on the surface of the end of the rotating shaft 2 that passes through the side of the gantry 1. The U-shaped handle 503 is fixedly connected to the surface of the limit slider 502. The part of the U-shaped handle 503 away from the rotating shaft 2 and parallel to the rotating shaft 2 is slidably inserted on the surface of the gantry 1. A first spring 504 is fixedly connected between the side surface of the U-shaped handle 503 close to the gantry 1 and the side of the gantry 1.
[0030] Specifically, grasp the U-shaped handle 503 to make it slide off the side of the gantry 1, and then the U-shaped handle 503 can be rotated freely. The rotation of the U-shaped handle 503 drives the limit slider 502 to rotate. At this time, the first spring 504 is stretched. Since the limit slider 502 is slidably arranged relative to the inner wall surface of the limit slide groove 501, and the limit slide groove 501 is opened inside the rotating shaft 2, the rotation of the limit slider 502 will drive the rotating shaft 2 to rotate, thereby realizing the retraction and release of the measuring catheter body 4 wound on the surface of the rotating shaft 2. After adjusting the probe body 7 to a suitable position, under the action of the elastic restoring force of the first spring 504, the U-shaped handle 503 is slid and inserted into the side of the gantry 1 again, and the retraction and release control component 5 is fixed, so that the rotating shaft 2 can be fixed.
[0031] The enclosure assembly 10 includes a protective enclosure 101, which is a cylindrical shell with an opening on the side. A plug plate 102 is fixedly installed on the top of the inner side of the protective enclosure 101. A positioning hole 103 is opened on the top surface of the plug plate 102. The two plug plates 102 are slidably inserted into the front and rear sides of the top floating plate 9 respectively. The front and rear protective enclosures 101 are fitted together to form a complete cylindrical shell. The elastic fixed handle 11 is slidably set on the inner wall surface of the positioning hole 103.
[0032] Specifically, the plug plate 102 is slidably inserted into the side of the top floating plate 9, and the elastic fixing handle 11 is used to slide through the inner wall surface of the positioning hole 103 to fix the plug plate 102, that is, the protection panel 101 is fixed. The two protective panels 101 are bonded together to form a complete cylindrical shell, which protects the internal buoy body 6 and effectively isolates the impact of debris and the electromagnetic interference of metal objects.
[0033] A plurality of filter holes are provided on the surface of the protective enclosure 101 , and the width of the opening is larger than the diameter of the buoy body 6 .
[0034] Specifically, while isolating debris and metal objects through the filter holes, the water can smoothly enter the inside of the protective enclosure 101, and the water can fully contact the buoy body 6, the bottom floating plate 8, and the top floating plate 9, so that the buoy body 6 can float smoothly, ensuring the accuracy of water level monitoring. The opening width setting on the surface of the protective enclosure 101 ensures that it can be detached from between the bottom floating plate 8 and the top floating plate 9, avoiding being stuck by the buoy body 6 and unable to be removed for cleaning.
[0035] The elastic fixed handle 11 includes a cross bar 113, and a sliding plug 112 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the cross bar 113. The number of sliding plugs 112 on the surface of the cross bar 113 is two and they are symmetrically arranged on the left and right. A limiting plug 111 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the sliding plug 112. An opening groove 116 is provided on the side of the top floating plate 9. The plug plate 102 is slidably inserted into the inner wall surface of the opening groove 116. The top and bottom surfaces of the inner wall of the opening groove 116 are provided with limiting holes 115. The sliding plug 112 is slidably inserted into the top surface of the top floating plate 9. The limiting plug 111 is slidably installed on the inner wall surface of the limiting hole 115 and the inner wall surface of the positioning hole 103. A second spring 114 is fixedly connected between the opposite surfaces of the cross bar 113 and the top floating plate 9. The second spring 114 is sleeved on the outside of the sliding plug 112.
[0036] Specifically, the gripping cross bar 113 is pulled upward, so that the sliding pin 112 and the limiting pin 111 slide upward, and the limiting pin 111 originally located in the positioning hole 103 and the limiting pin 115 will enter the limiting pin 115 opened on the top surface of the inner wall of the opening groove 116. At this time, the limiting pin 111 completely slips out of the positioning hole 103, so the plug plate 102 can be slid out of the opening groove 116, and then the enclosure assembly 10 can be removed as a whole for cleaning. When the elastic fixing handle 11 fixes the enclosure assembly 10, the elasticity of the second spring 114 is used to apply opposite forces to the cross bar 113 and the top floating plate 9, so that the limiting pin 111 can be reliably inserted into the limiting pin 115 and the positioning hole 103 without external tension, so as to reliably fix the enclosure assembly 10.
[0037] In summary: the top floating plate 9 fixedly installed on the top surface of the buoy body 6, the bottom floating plate 8 fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the buoy body 6 and the enclosure assembly 10 surrounding the periphery of the buoy body 6 are used to provide all-round protection for the buoy body 6 to prevent the buoy body 6 from being damaged by the impact of floating objects in the water during long-term use. At the same time, metal floating objects are effectively isolated to prevent metal objects from interfering with the accuracy of the measurement when the buoy body 6 and the measuring catheter body 4 and the probe body 7 are coordinated. Therefore, the water level monitoring accuracy can be effectively ensured under long-term immersion. The system is suitable for long-term water level monitoring in hydropower stations. The enclosure assembly 10 is fixed with an elastic fixing handle 11. When the enclosure assembly 10 needs to be cleaned, the elastic fixing handle 11 is pulled to make it slide off the enclosure assembly 10, and the enclosure assembly 10 can be quickly disassembled for cleaning.
