[0020] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model clearer and more understandable, the technical solution of the utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the utility model provides a pipe mouth protection device for a dam pressure measuring tube, including a cover plate 7, a lifting and adjusting structure, a horizontal adjustment structure, two support frames 2 and two protective sleeves 14. The two support frames 2 are respectively slidably connected to the two ends of the cover plate 7. The lifting and adjusting structure is used to drive the support frames 2 to be lifted and adjusted relative to the cover plate 7. The two protective sleeves 14 are symmetrically slidably connected to the bottom surface of the cover plate 7. The horizontal adjustment structure is used to drive the two protective sleeves 14 to move closer to or away from each other. The inner wall of the protective sleeve 14 can fit the outer wall of the pressure measuring tube body 1, and a rubber pad is provided on the inner wall of the protective sleeve 14.

[0022] The two support frames 2 are located at both ends of the cover plate 7, forming a downwardly open U-shaped structure with the cover plate 7, and the pressure measuring tube body 1 is located directly below the cover plate 7. The height of the cover plate 7 can be changed by driving the support frame 2 to move up and down relative to the cover plate 7 through the lifting and adjusting structure, thereby changing the position of the protective cover 14 to adapt to the height of the pressure measuring tube body 1 exposed to the ground. Then, the two protective covers 14 can be driven close to each other through the horizontal adjustment structure to clamp the pipe mouth at the top of the pressure measuring tube body 1, thereby achieving a protective effect. Not only can the pipe mouth of the pressure measuring tube body 1 be covered to prevent debris from entering, but the rubber pad can also increase its sealing performance to prevent rainwater from entering the pressure measuring tube body 1 through the gap.

[0023] The lifting and lowering adjustment structure includes two groups of lifting and lowering adjustment components, which include a rack 6, a gear 4, a handle 5 and a locking unit. A first movable groove 3 is opened on the support frame 2. The top end of the rack 6 is fixedly connected to the cover plate 7. The rack 4 is inserted in the first movable groove 3. The gear 4 is rotatably installed in the first movable groove 3 and meshes with the rack 6. The handle 5 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft of the gear 4. The locking unit is used to limit the rotation of the gear 4.

[0024] The locking unit includes a pull rod 11, a spring 9 and a limit block 10. The pull rod 11 is slidably inserted in the support frame 2. A second movable groove 8 is opened in the support frame 2. The limit block 10 is slidably embedded in the second movable groove 8 and fixedly connected to the pull rod 11. One end of the spring 9 is connected to the limit block 10 and the other end is connected to the inner end surface of the second movable groove 8. The limit block 10 can interfere with the gear 4 and thus limit the rotation of the gear 4. The limit block 10 is set as an inclined surface on the upper side.

[0025] The staff turns the handle 5 to drive the gear 4 to rotate. Since the limit block 10 is set as an inclined surface on the upper side, the gear 4 can interfere with the inclined surface of the limit block 10 when it rotates, thereby pushing the limit block 10 to slide in the second movable groove 8, the spring 9 is compressed, and the pull rod 11 moves toward the outside of the support frame 2. Then, because the gear 4 and the rack 6 are meshed with each other, the rack 6 and the cover plate 7 are fixed and slidably inserted in the first movable groove 3, the rotation of the gear 4 can drive the support frame 2 to move up and down relative to the cover plate 7, changing the cover plate 7 to an appropriate height. Moreover, after the adjustment is completed, due to the presence of the spring 9, the limit block 10 can still be between the two teeth of the gear 4, limiting the rotation of the gear 4 and fixing the height of the cover plate 7, which can prevent the cover plate 7 from moving downward under the action of gravity and affecting the protective function of the protective cover 14.

[0026] Preferably, the teeth of the gear 4 and the rack 6 are both triangular, and the oblique sides of the teeth of the gear 4 and the rack 6 are parallel.

[0027] The horizontal adjustment structure includes a bidirectional screw 12, a knob 15 and two screw sleeves 13. The bidirectional screw 12 is rotatably installed in the cover plate 7. The knob 15 is connected to either end of the bidirectional screw 12 and the two move synchronously. The two screw sleeves 13 are sleeved on the bidirectional screw 12 through threaded fitting and are fixedly connected to two protective sleeves 14 respectively.

[0028] When the staff turns the knob 15, the bidirectional screw 12 can be directly driven to rotate. Since the two screw sleeves 13 are threadedly matched with the bidirectional screw 12 and are respectively fixedly connected to the two protective sleeves 14, and the protective sleeves 14 can only slide relative to the cover plate 7, the two-way screw 12 can drive the two protective sleeves 14 to move closer to or away from each other during the rotation of the rod.

[0029] The overall use process of the utility model is as follows: first, turn the handle 5 to drive the gear 4 to rotate, so that the support frame 2 can be raised and lowered relative to the cover plate 7, and the cover plate 7 is adjusted to a certain height to ensure that the protective cover 14 can be aligned with the pipe opening of the pressure measuring tube body 1, and then cover the device on the pressure measuring tube body 1 so that the support frame 2 is exactly on both sides of the pressure measuring tube body 1, and then turn the knob 15 to drive the bidirectional screw 12 to rotate, so that the protective covers 14 are close to each other, and the pressure measuring tube body 1 is clamped.

[0030] The contents not described in detail in this specification belong to the prior art known to those skilled in the art.
