Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of marine environment monitoring equipment, in particular to a multifunctional tide level station. Background Art

[0002] In the field of marine scientific research and environmental monitoring, accurate measurement of tide levels and wave parameters is crucial. Traditional tide stations often rely on large fixed equipment to measure tide levels, which is not only complex and costly to install, but also faces many difficulties in deployment in certain sea areas. On the other hand, as an important tool for offshore environmental observation, although wave buoys have the advantages of flexibility and mobility, their power supply and energy consumption management have always been urgent issues to be solved. Especially in waters far away from land, how to ensure the continuous and stable operation of wave buoys and realize real-time data transmission has become a bottleneck limiting its scope of application.

[0003] In addition, with the development of ocean monitoring technology, single-function tide stations or wave buoys can no longer meet the needs of comprehensive ocean environment observation. In order to better understand the overall status of the ocean environment, a comprehensive observation platform that can simultaneously monitor tide levels, wave parameters and other ocean environment elements is needed.

[0004] In response to the above problems, although there are some improved tide stations and wave buoys on the market, they often only make breakthroughs in one aspect and fail to achieve overall performance optimization and functional diversification. Therefore, developing a multifunctional small tide station that integrates tide level measurement, wave observation and other marine environment monitoring functions, while solving the installation complexity and energy consumption problems, has become an important direction for the development of current marine observation technology.

[0005] Based on the deficiencies of existing technologies and the urgency of market demand, the utility model proposes a multifunctional small tide station, which aims to provide a more convenient and efficient solution for marine scientific research and environmental monitoring through innovative design and optimized performance. Utility Model Content

[0006] The technical problem that the utility model aims to solve is: how to use the wind turbines that are operating normally at sea to build a tide gauge station with multiple functions. This tide gauge station needs to solve two core problems: one is to realize the convenient installation of the tide meter to simplify the installation process and improve the installation efficiency; the other is to reduce the power consumption of the small wave buoy to enhance its continuous working ability in the marine environment. By making full use of the existing resource of wind turbines, we aim to create a multifunctional tide station that can not only facilitate the installation of tide meters, but also effectively reduce the energy consumption of small wave buoys, so as to meet the diverse needs of marine environmental monitoring.

[0007] In order to solve the above technical problems, a special clamp and fixture are designed to quickly fix the tide meter on the wind turbine tower, and use the tower body as a reference point to measure the tide level.

[0008] The technical solution adopted by the utility model is: to provide a multifunctional tide station, including a wind power tower built in the sea and a tide measuring component, the wind power tower includes a base and a cylinder arranged on the base, the cylinder is provided with a circular walkway at one end close to the base, and a guardrail is provided on the outer side of the walkway;

[0009] The wind power tower comprises a power supply circuit, and the power supply circuit is used to provide power to the tide gauge component;

[0012] The small wave buoy is connected to the communication module by short-distance wireless communication, the radar tide meter is electrically connected to the communication module, and the communication module is used for 4G communication or satellite communication.

[0013] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned multifunctional tide station, the short-range wireless communication is ZigBee, WiFi or Bluetooth.

[0014] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned multifunctional tide station, the tide measuring component also includes a visibility meter, an anemometer, a barometer and a thermometer and humidity meter connected to the communication module.

[0015] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned multifunctional tide station, the tide measuring component also includes a photoelectric radar for detecting the approach of people.
