Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of building construction, in particular to a water level monitoring tool. Background Art

[0002] At present, common instruments for measuring water levels include radar water level gauges, pressure water level gauges, bubble water level gauges, float water level gauges, ultrasonic water level gauges, and electronic water gauges. Among them, in cold environments, the antenna of radar water level gauges is prone to crystallization and ice formation, and the data will be reported incorrectly, requiring irregular processing. If there are obstacles or floating objects in the installation environment, the radar wave will mistake them for the water surface, resulting in inaccurate data; the pressure probe of the pressure water level gauge will be blocked by silt and debris, and when immersion measurement is performed, impurities in the water affect the measurement accuracy; the silt and debris at the bottom of the bubble water level gauge will block the product probe, affecting its accuracy, and due to the low power consumption, the air pump's pumping power is insufficient, and it cannot be used in places with poor environments (such as a lot of silt, a lot of debris, etc.); the ultrasonic water level gauge has a blind spot during measurement, and the measurement accuracy is easily affected by temperature, humidity, wind and waves. When there are bubbles, the measured value will have a large deviation from the actual liquid level, resulting in low accuracy.

[0003] Therefore, when monitoring the water level in a full water test pool, the water level in a well, or the water level in a canal, the traditional water level meter is affected by debris or water quality in the water, resulting in poor measurement accuracy. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims to provide a water level monitoring tool, which is used to improve the measurement accuracy under the influence of factors such as external temperature and impurities and sludge in water.

[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solution: a water level monitoring tool, comprising:

[0006] The support component has a fixed end and a measuring end, the fixed end of the support component is used to be fixed to the bottom of the water area to be measured, and the measuring end of the support component has a slide groove, and the guiding direction of the slide groove is parallel to the supporting direction of the support component;

[0007] A sliding component is slidably connected to the slide groove, and has a scale on the sliding component;

[0008] The floating block is fixedly connected to the sliding component, and the buoyancy generated by the floating block on the water surface is used to drive the sliding component to move along the guiding direction of the slide groove.

[0009] Optionally, the water level monitoring tool further comprises an indicator needle, which is arranged at the measuring end of the supporting component, and the pointing direction of the indicator needle is perpendicular to the guiding direction of the chute.

[0010] Optionally, in the above water level monitoring tool, the sliding component includes:

[0011] A clamp, one end of which is slidably connected to the slide groove;

[0012] A connecting rod, a side wall of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to the other end of the clamp, and the axial direction of the connecting rod is parallel to the guiding direction of the slide groove, and a floating block is arranged at one end of the connecting rod close to the water area to be measured.

[0013] Optionally, in the above water level monitoring tool, the clamp and the connecting rod are an integrally formed structure;

[0014] Or, the clamp and the connecting rod are welded.

[0015] Optionally, in the above-mentioned water level monitoring tool, the sliding component also includes a movable rod, which is coaxially arranged with the connecting rod and movably connected to the other end of the connecting rod, and the movable rod is used to extend or retract along the axial direction of the connecting rod.

[0016] Optionally, in the above water level monitoring tool, the connecting rod is provided with scales distributed along its axial direction;

[0017] And / or, the movable rod is provided with scales along its axial direction.

[0018] Optionally, in the above-mentioned water level monitoring tool, the sliding component further includes a telescopic button, which is arranged on the movable rod, and the telescopic button is used to control the relative position between the movable rod and the fixed rod.

[0019] Optionally, in the above-mentioned water level monitoring tool, the fixed end of the supporting component is an L-shaped supporting end or a T-shaped supporting end.

[0020] Optionally, in the above-mentioned water level monitoring tool, the float includes a polyethylene float.

[0021] Optionally, the above water level monitoring tool further includes:

[0022] An L-shaped plate, one end of which is connected to the measuring end of the supporting member, and the other end of the L-shaped plate is used to contact the surface of the external concrete structure;

[0023] Fastening components pass through the L-shaped plate to fix it to the surface of the external concrete structure.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, when the above-mentioned technical scheme is adopted, after the supporting component is fixedly installed at the bottom of the water area to be measured, the float block relies on the buoyancy to change with the water surface of the water area to be measured, and at the same time drives the sliding component to move along the guide direction of the slide. When the float block no longer moves, the operator monitors the water level by reading the scale indicated on the sliding component. Compared with the traditional water level gauge that cannot accurately measure in places with poor environment (such as a lot of mud, a lot of debris, etc.), the present application relies on the buoyancy of the float block on the water area to be measured to drive the sliding component to move, and monitors the water level by reading the scale value on the sliding component. The scale on the sliding component is always above the water surface of the water area to be measured, thereby avoiding the influence of factors such as impurities and temperature in the water on the measurement accuracy during the measurement process, thereby improving the measurement accuracy.

[0035] In the description of the present utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0036] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, a water level monitoring tool provided by an embodiment of the utility model includes: a supporting component 1, a sliding component 2 and a floating block 3.

[0037] Among them, the supporting component 1 has a fixed end and a measuring end. The fixed end of the supporting component 1 is used to be fixed to the bottom of the water area to be measured, and the measuring end of the supporting component 1 has a slide groove 101, and the guiding direction of the slide groove 101 is parallel to the supporting direction of the supporting component 1; the sliding component 2 is slidably connected to the slide groove 101, and the sliding component 2 has a scale 205; the floating block 3 is fixedly connected to the sliding component 2, and the buoyancy generated by the floating block 3 on the water surface is used to drive the sliding component 2 to move along the guiding direction of the slide groove 101.

[0038] When implementing it, Figure 1As shown, after the support component 1 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the water area to be tested, the float 3 relies on the buoyancy to change with the water surface of the water area to be tested, and at the same time drives the sliding component 2 to move along the guide direction of the slide 101. When the float 3 no longer moves, the operator monitors the water level by reading the scale 205 indicated on the sliding component 2. Compared with the traditional water level gauge that cannot accurately measure in places with poor environment (such as a lot of mud, a lot of debris, etc.), the present application relies on the buoyancy of the float 3 on the water area to be tested to drive the sliding component 2 to move, and monitors the water level by reading the value of the scale 205 on the sliding component 2. The scale 205 on the sliding component 2 is always located above the water surface of the water area to be tested, thereby avoiding the influence of factors such as impurities and temperature in the water on the measurement accuracy during the measurement process, thereby improving the measurement accuracy.

[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, specifically, in this embodiment, the water level monitoring tool further includes an indicator needle 4, which is disposed at the measuring end of the support component 1, and the pointing direction of the indicator needle 4 is perpendicular to the guiding direction of the chute 101. The pointing direction of the indicator needle 4 is perpendicular to the guiding direction of the chute 101. When the floating block 3 is displaced as the water surface of the water area to be measured changes, the value pointed to by the pointer on the scale 205 of the sliding component 2 changes. When the water level no longer rises, the scale 205 pointed to by the indicator needle 4 is the water level elevation. The operator can intuitively read the measured value through the position pointed by the indicator needle 4, which is convenient for operation.

[0040] like Figure 2 As shown, specifically, in this embodiment, the sliding component 2 includes: a clamp 201 and a connecting rod 202, one end of the clamp 201 is slidably connected to the chute 101; the side wall of the connecting rod 202 is fixedly connected to the other end of the clamp 201, and the axial direction of the connecting rod 202 is parallel to the guide direction of the chute 101, and a floating block 3 is arranged at one end of the connecting rod 202 close to the water area to be measured. After one end of the clamp 201 is installed in the chute 101 and the other end of the clamp 201 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 202, the floating block 3 moves to drive the connecting rod 202 and the clamp 201 to move along the guide direction of the chute 101. When the water surface of the water area to be measured no longer changes, the position of the clamp 201 in the chute 101 is fixed. At this time, it is only necessary to read the value displayed by the scale 205 on the connecting rod 202 to realize water level monitoring, which is convenient for operation.

[0041] In some embodiments, the clamp 201 and the connecting rod 202 are an integrally formed structure, which is more convenient when manufacturing the component structure and reduces the installation process; or, the clamp 201 and the connecting rod 202 are welded together, which is convenient for adjusting the installation angle between the clamp 201 and the connecting rod 202 according to different surrounding structural environments, thereby ensuring the stability of the sliding component 2 structure.

[0042] like Figure 3 As shown, specifically, in this embodiment, the sliding component 2 also includes a movable rod 203, which is coaxially arranged with the connecting rod 202, and the movable rod 203 is movably connected to the other end of the connecting rod 202, and the movable rod 203 is used to extend or retract along the axial direction of the connecting rod 202. When the water level of the water area to be measured is high, the floating block 3 floats upward, and at the same time drives the connecting rod 202, the clamp 201 and the movable rod 203 to move upward along the guiding direction of the slide 101. During this process, the sliding component 2 gradually extends, and the operator can manually adjust the movable rod 203 to retract, so that the overall length of the movable rod 203 and the connecting rod 202 is shortened to ensure the stability of the overall structure; when the water level of the water area to be measured is low, the floating block 3 floats downward, and at the same time drives the connecting rod 202, the clamp 201 and the movable rod 203 to move downward along the guiding direction of the slide 101. During this process, the scale 205 on the sliding component 2 gradually disengages from the indicator needle 4, and the operator can manually adjust the movable rod 203 to extend, so that the overall length of the movable rod 203 and the connecting rod 202 is increased, ensuring that the scale 205 on the movable rod 203 cooperates with the indicator needle 4 to facilitate reading of the water level elevation.

[0043] like Figure 3 As shown, specifically, in this embodiment, the connecting rod 202 is provided with scales 205 along its axial direction; and / or, the movable rod 203 is provided with scales 205 along its axial direction. That is, the scales 205 can be distributed only on the connecting rod 202 or the movable rod 203, or distributed on both the connecting rod 202 and the movable rod 203. When the scales 205 are distributed at different positions, the installation position of the indicator needle 4 can be adjusted according to the distribution position of the scales 205, so as to facilitate the adjustment. The distribution area of ​​the scales 205 is not specifically limited here, as long as the setting of the scales 205 satisfies the value of the water level elevation.

[0044] like Figure 3 As shown, specifically, in this embodiment, the sliding component 2 also includes a telescopic button 204, which is arranged on the movable rod 203, and the telescopic button 204 is used to control the relative position between the movable rod 203 and the fixed rod. When the telescopic button 204 is pressed, the movable rod 203 is no longer limited, and the operator pulls the movable rod 203 so that the movable rod 203 is adjusted along its axial direction on the connecting rod 202; when the movable rod 203 is adjusted to a certain position, the operator only needs to release the telescopic button 204 to limit the movable rod 203. At this time, the movable rod 203 and the connecting rod 202 are connected and fixed by the telescopic button 204, which is convenient to operate, easy to install and use, and improves work efficiency. At the same time, the telescopic button 204 can also be an electric button or other buttons that can realize the movement and limiting functions of the movable rod 203, and the telescopic button 204 is not specifically limited here.

[0045] Specifically, in this embodiment, the sliding component 2 can be a scale 205 rod, a scale 205 tube, a scale 205 sheet, or other materials with scales 205 on the surface, and the sliding component 2 is not specifically limited here.

[0046] Specifically, in this embodiment, the fixed end of the support component 1 is an L-shaped support end or a T-shaped support end. Both the L-shaped support end and the T-shaped support end have a support plane, which enables the support component 1 to be placed and installed perpendicular to the bottom of the water area to be measured, facilitating operation and reducing installation costs.

[0047] Specifically, in this embodiment, the float 3 includes a polyethylene float. The float 3 can be made of a polyethylene float or other materials that can float on the water surface to be tested. The float 3 is not specifically limited here, as long as the float 3 can float on the water surface of the water area to be tested.

[0048] like Figure 1 As shown, specifically, in this embodiment, the water level monitoring tool also includes: an L-shaped plate 5 and a fastening component 6, one end of the L-shaped plate 5 is connected to the measuring end of the support component 1, and the other end of the L-shaped plate 5 is used to contact the surface of the external concrete structure; the fastening component 6 passes through the L-shaped plate 5 to fix it to the surface of the external concrete structure. The L-shaped plate 5 has two relatively flat assembly planes, one of which is placed on the surface of the external concrete structure and is installed and fixed by the fastening component 6 to ensure the structural stability of the L-shaped plate 5 and the support component 1. Exemplarily, the fastening component 6 can be an expansion bolt or other bolt that can be fixed and installed, and the fastening component 6 is not specifically limited here. At the same time, one end of the L-shaped plate 5 can be an integrally formed structure with the measuring end of the support component 1, which is more convenient when manufacturing the component structure and reduces the installation process; or, the L-shaped plate 5 and the measuring end of the support component 1 are welded together, which is convenient for adjusting the installation angle between the L-shaped plate 5 and the support component 1 according to different surrounding structural environments, and is convenient for installation.

[0049] In the description of the above embodiments, specific features, structures, materials or characteristics may be combined in a suitable manner in any one or more embodiments or examples.

[0050] The above is only a specific implementation of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed by the utility model, which should be included in the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
