Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of meteorology, in particular to a small meteorological station. Background Art

[0002] Meteorological observation stations, also known as weather stations, are places for observing and recording weather conditions. They are usually equipped with various meteorological instruments and equipment to collect meteorological data such as temperature, humidity, air pressure, wind speed, wind direction, precipitation, etc. Depending on the configuration of sensors, they can detect various parameters in the meteorological environment and soil. Meteorological stations can be divided into ground meteorological observation stations, high-altitude meteorological observation stations, and satellite meteorological observation stations. Ground meteorological stations can also be divided into portable, small, medium and large types according to the number of data items collected and the number of instruments and equipment installed.

[0003] For portable and small weather stations, due to their good mobility and the fact that the additional mains electricity supply remains unchanged, the main power supply method is to use solar panels to convert sunlight into electricity. In strong convective weather such as strong winds and hail, the hail and large debris blown up by strong winds can easily damage the solar panel surface, thus affecting its working ability.

[0011] Preferably, a sleeve is installed on the column near the bottom, and a plurality of diagonal support rods slanting downward outwards are installed on the outer peripheral wall of the sleeve.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the utility model provides a small weather station with the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. The weather station uses the worm gear to flip the solar panel. In strong convective weather, the panel can be flipped downward to avoid the direct impact of hail and reduce the probability of damage.

[0014] 2. The weather station, through the cooperation of the convex teeth and the gears, and the limited sleeve connection relationship of the sleeve around the fixed sleeve, can provide the solar panel with the effect of rotating around the column. When used in conjunction with the flipping of the solar panel, it can track the sun to maximize the use of solar energy.

[0015] 3. The weather station can reduce the friction between the collar and the end plate through the cooperation between the ball and the ball groove, so as to facilitate the rotation around the column.

[0016] 4. The weather station sets diagonal braces at the bottom of the columns. After the columns are buried, the contact surface with the soil can be increased to improve the stability of the columns. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0025] See also Figure 1-6 A small weather station includes a column 1, a horizontal mounting platform 2 is bolted on the top of the column 1, a light meter 3, a thermometer 4, an anemometer 5 and a rain gauge 6 are installed on the top of the mounting platform 2, two solar panels 7 are installed on the column 1 below the mounting platform 2, an electric box 8 is installed on the column 1 below the solar panel 7, the electric box 8 has a built-in battery and a mainboard, the light meter 3, the thermometer 4, the anemometer 5, the rain gauge 6, and the solar panel 7 are all electrically connected to the battery and the mainboard, and a remote communication module can also be integrated as needed to remotely send the monitored data to a management center, which are all existing conventional settings, so they are not repeated here;

[0026] A fixing sleeve 9 is welded and installed on the column 1 at the position corresponding to the solar panel 7, an inner sleeve ring 14 is sleeved on the outer side of the fixing sleeve 9, an outer sleeve ring 15 is arranged on the outer side of the inner sleeve ring 14, and a plurality of connecting plates 13 are welded and installed on the upper and lower sides between the outer circumference of the inner sleeve ring 14 and the inner circumference of the outer sleeve ring 15, and an upper end plate 10 and a lower end plate 11 are respectively arranged on the upper and lower surfaces of the inner sleeve ring 14 and the outer sleeve ring 15, and the upper end plate 10 and the lower end plate 11 are both welded and fixed to the fixing sleeve 9 at the corresponding position, and the upper end plate 10, the lower end plate 11 and the fixing sleeve 9 cooperate to form a limited rotation sleeve connection and fixation of the inner sleeve ring 14 and the outer sleeve ring 15;

[0027] Two fixing plates 16 are welded and installed on the connecting plate 13 on the upper side of the inner collar 14 and the outer collar 15, and a mounting rod 12 is installed on the bearing sleeve on the fixing plate 16 and extends to the outside through the outer collar 15. The side of the solar panel 7 is fixed to the position of the mounting rod 12 by bolts, and a worm gear 17 is installed on the mounting rod 12 between the two fixing plates 16. A motor 19 is installed on the connecting plate 13 on the lower side of the inner collar 14 and the outer collar 15, and a worm 18 is installed on the shaft of the motor 19. The worm 18 is meshed with the worm gear 17 for transmission.

[0028] During installation, the column 1 is fixed in the pre-buried soil or concrete pier at the bottom. The light meter 3, the thermometer and hygrometer 4, the anemometer 5 and the rain gauge 6 respectively monitor the light intensity, temperature and humidity, wind speed and direction, and rainfall. The daily electricity is supplied by the solar panel 7 converting solar energy into electrical energy. When there is strong convective weather such as strong wind and hail in the area, the motor 19 can be controlled to work. The motor 19 uses the transmission relationship between the worm gear 17 and the worm 18 to drive the installation rod 12 to rotate, and then the solar panel 7 is turned over, with the panel face down, so as to avoid the direct impact of hail and reduce the probability of damage to the solar panel 7 in strong convective weather. After snowfall, most of the snow covering the panel surface can be dumped by turning it over to speed up the melting speed of the snow on the surface and reduce the duration of the influence of snowfall on the panel surface.

[0029] In this embodiment, a convex ring 22 is integrally installed on the top surface of the lower end plate 11 corresponding to the inner side of the inner ring 14, and a plurality of uniform convex teeth 23 are integrally installed on the top surface of the convex ring 22.

[0030] When the control motor 21 is working, the meshing transmission relationship between the gear 20 and the convex tooth 23 can be used to drive the entire solar panel 7 to rotate 360° horizontally with the column 1 as the axis. In order to avoid the power supply line from being entangled and knotted, the rotation direction is 360° round trip. The motor 19 has a flip angle adjustment function for the solar panel 7, and the sun tracking sensor can achieve the tracking effect of the sun, thereby realizing the maximum utilization rate of the solar panel 7 to ensure that the power generation can continue to maintain the electricity demand of the weather station.

[0032] The ball groove 25 cooperates with the ball 24 to reduce the friction resistance of the upper end plate 10 and the lower end plate 11 to the connecting plate 13, making the connecting plate 13 rotate more smoothly.

[0033] In this embodiment, a sleeve 26 is welded and installed on the bottom of the column 1, and a plurality of oblique support rods 27 obliquely downwardly directed outwards are welded and installed on the outer peripheral wall of the sleeve 26.

[0034] When the column 1 is buried in the ground, the diagonal support rods 27 can be used to increase the contact surface with the soil, thereby improving the stability after burial.
