Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of hydropower station equipment, in particular to a water flow control structure of a water inlet of a hydropower station. Background Art
[0002] A hydropower station is a comprehensive engineering facility that converts water energy into electrical energy. It is also called a hydropower plant. It includes a series of hydropower station buildings built to produce electricity using water energy and various hydropower station equipment installed. These buildings are used to concentrate the drop of natural water flow to form a head, collect and regulate the flow of natural water flow, and transmit it to the turbine. Through the joint operation of the turbine and the generator, the concentrated water energy is converted into electrical energy, and then the electrical energy is input into the power grid through transformers, switch stations and transmission lines. In addition to the buildings required for power generation, some hydropower stations often have other buildings that serve the comprehensive utilization purposes of flood control, irrigation, shipping, wood and fish. At present, in water conservancy and hydropower projects, the water inlet of the power station is usually divided into multiple flow channels by partitions. The water flow is affected by the solid side wall of the water diversion channel, the shape and size of the water inlet and the dynamic conditions of the water flow itself. The flow through each flow channel is not equal, and there is a large difference in the diversion ratio, resulting in uneven distribution of cross-sectional flow velocity. Therefore, a water flow control device at the water inlet of a hydropower station is used to regulate the water flow.
[0003] The existing water flow control device at the water inlet of a hydropower station has a poor effect on regulating and controlling the water flow and is unable to accurately control the water flow. When faced with a large water flow, the accuracy of flow regulation will drop significantly, and the stable operation of the hydropower station cannot be guaranteed.
[0004] Therefore, we propose a water flow control structure for the water intake of a hydropower station. Utility Model Content
[0005] The utility model mainly solves the technical problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art and provides a water flow control structure for a water inlet of a hydropower station.
[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme: a water flow control structure of a water inlet of a hydropower station, comprising an inlet pipe, a water outlet pipe is fixedly installed on the right side wall of the inlet pipe, a mounting frame is fixedly installed on the right side wall of the outlet pipe, an adjusting baffle is fixedly installed on the right side of the inner wall of the inlet pipe, an adjusting hole is opened on the right side wall of the adjusting baffle, a sealing ring is fixedly installed on the left side of the inner wall of the mounting frame, an automatic flow regulating mechanism is arranged on the right side of the inner wall of the mounting frame, the automatic flow regulating mechanism comprises a servo motor, and the right side wall of the servo motor is fixedly connected to the right side of the inner wall of the mounting frame, a first gear is fixedly installed on the output end of the servo motor, a mounting plate is movably installed on the left side wall of the first gear, and the outer wall of the mounting plate is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting frame, a limiting guide rod is fixedly installed on the left side wall of the mounting plate, and the left side wall of the limiting guide rod is fixedly connected to the left side of the inner wall of the mounting frame, and the outer wall of the first gear is movably meshed with a second gear.

[0013] Beneficial Effects
[0014] The utility model provides a water flow control structure for a water inlet of a hydropower station, which has the following beneficial effects:
