Its purpose is to improve the utilization efficiency of water resources, ensure the sustainable utilization of water resources, and at the same time strengthen the protection and management of water resources.
[0003] The Chinese utility model patent with the publication number CN220701307U discloses a buoy for intelligent water control and measurement. It charges the battery through a solar panel, the battery powers the rotating motor, the single-chip microcomputer controls the rotation direction of the rotating motor, the rotating motor drives the propeller to rotate. Through the setting of two rotating motors, it can realize the movement of the buoy driven by the propeller, and the water quality is detected by the water quality detection component. However, since it can only move on the water through the propeller, it is necessary to rely on external equipment and external forces during deployment. This leads to spending more time and different auxiliary equipment to complete the deployment when encountering terrain environments that are inconvenient for deployment, increasing the costs invested in various aspects, and the operation steps are cumbersome, thus affecting the overall measurement efficiency.
[0004] Therefore, this application provides a buoy for intelligent water control and measurement to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] This application provides a buoy for intelligent water control and measurement, aiming to solve the problems in the background art that the existing water control and measurement buoys are restricted by the geographical environment during deployment, resulting in cumbersome steps and low efficiency.
[0006] To achieve the above object, this application provides the following technical solution: A buoy for intelligent water control and measurement, including a floating seat, a detection mechanism fixedly installed on the floating seat, and a solar energy mechanism arranged on the floating seat for power supply.
[0007] An unmanned aerial vehicle device is fixedly installed on the top of the floating seat.
[0008] The solar energy mechanism includes a conical shell fixedly installed on the top of the unmanned aerial vehicle device, a solar panel fixedly installed on the side of the conical shell, a battery fixedly installed inside the conical shell, and an inverter fixedly installed inside the conical shell for converting solar energy into electrical energy.
[0009] The detection mechanism includes a controller fixedly installed inside the conical shell, and a detection head that sequentially passes through the center of the unmanned aerial vehicle device and the center of the floating seat and extends below the floating seat. The detection head is bidirectionally connected to the controller.
[0010] Among them, the output end of the solar panel is connected to the input end of the inverter, the output end of the inverter is connected to the input end of the storage battery, and both the drone device and the measuring and controlling device are connected to the output end of the storage battery. In this way, aerial delivery is achieved through the drone device, without relying on external equipment and external forces, greatly reducing the delivery difficulty and cost in complex terrain environments. This flexibility greatly improves the applicability of the buoy in different water areas and scenarios. At the same time, it also shortens the delivery time and improves the overall measurement efficiency.
[0011] Preferably, an antenna is fixedly installed at the top of the conical shell, and the antenna is bidirectionally connected to the measuring and controlling device, which not only enhances the wireless communication ability of the buoy, but also improves the monitoring efficiency, data reliability and emergency response ability, providing a strong guarantee for the improvement of the overall performance of the intelligent water conservancy measurement and control system.
[0012] Preferably, a warning light is fixedly installed at the top of the conical shell, and the input end of the warning light is connected to the output end of the storage battery.

This enables the buoy to play a warning and alarm role when needed in addition to completing basic water quality monitoring tasks, providing more comprehensive support for the protection and management of water resources.
[0013] Preferably, the materials of the floating seat, the conical shell and the drone device frame are all EVA materials. The combined effects of the light weight, high elasticity, corrosion resistance and good buoyancy of EVA materials make the buoy perform more excellently in terms of mobility, stability, durability and impact resistance. This helps to improve the overall performance of the buoy and ensure its stable and reliable operation in various complex water environments. At the same time, EVA materials have low cost and are recyclable and degradable environmental protection materials, which helps to reduce the impact on the environment.
[0014] Preferably, the floating seat is set as a hollow shell in the shape of a double-square frame, so as to reduce the weight of the floating seat, and the hollow gas can improve the buoyancy of the floating seat, thereby improving stability and safety.
[0015] Preferably, a partition for supporting the storage battery and the inverter is fixedly connected inside the conical shell, so as to improve the firmness of the storage battery and the inverter in the conical shell through the support of the partition, which is beneficial to reducing the vibration of the equipment when floating on the water, improving stability and extending the service life of the equipment.
[0016] Preferably, a protective fence housing fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the floating seat is sleeved outside the detection head. When the buoy is working, the protective fence housing can effectively prevent the detection head from being entangled and collided by waterweeds, plankton, fishing nets or other sundries in a complex water environment, reduce the damage or performance degradation caused thereby, and by protecting the detection head from the external environment, the protective fence housing helps to extend the service life of the detection head and reduce the maintenance cost.
[0017] This intelligent water conservancy measurement and control buoy realizes convenient placement, self-power supply and efficient monitoring in complex geographical environments through the integration of an unmanned aerial vehicle device, a solar power supply system and an efficient detection mechanism.
[0018] For this intelligent water conservancy measurement and control buoy, the installation of warning lights improves the safety and emergency response ability of the buoy, enabling it to play a warning and alarm role when necessary. At the same time, the protective fence housing effectively protects the detection head from external environmental interference and damage, ensuring the accuracy of measurement and control and extending the service life of the equipment.

[0028] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.
[0029] Embodiment 1
[0030] This embodiment provides a buoy for intelligent water conservancy measurement and control, as Figure 1 - Figure 2 shown. The buoy for intelligent water conservancy measurement and control includes a floating seat 1, a detection mechanism 4 fixedly installed on the floating seat 1, and a solar energy mechanism 2 arranged on the floating seat 1 for power supply.
[0031] A drone device 3 is fixedly installed at the top of the floating seat 1.
[0032] The solar energy mechanism 2 includes a conical shell 21 fixedly installed at the top of the drone device 3, a solar panel 22 fixedly installed on the side of the conical shell 21, a storage battery 24 fixedly installed inside the conical shell 21, and an inverter 25 fixedly installed inside the conical shell 21 for converting solar energy into electrical energy.
[0033] The detection mechanism 4 includes a measurement and control device 41 fixedly installed inside the conical shell 21, and a detection head 42 that sequentially passes through the center of the drone device 3 and the center of the floating seat 1 and extends below the floating seat 1. The detection head 42 is bidirectionally connected to the measurement and control device 41.
[0034] Among them, the output end of the solar panel 22 is connected to the input end of the inverter 25, the output end of the inverter 25 is connected to the input end of the storage battery 24, and both the drone device 3 and the measurement and control device 41 are connected to the output end of the storage battery 24.
[0035] When deploying this buoy for intelligent water conservancy measurement and control, after receiving an instruction, the drone device 3 can drive the entire buoy to fly in the air to the sky above the designated water area, and then release the buoy to make it fall into the water. In addition, the drone device 3 can also perform short-distance autonomous movement on the water surface to adapt to different monitoring requirements; when this buoy for intelligent water conservancy measurement and control is operating on the water, the solar panel 22 is fixedly installed on the side of the conical shell 21, which can receive sunlight to the maximum extent and convert it into electrical energy. The converted electrical energy is first stabilized and converted by the inverter 25 to ensure the stable quality of the output electrical energy, and then stored in the storage battery 24 for standby. As the energy center of the entire buoy, it provides power support for key components such as the drone device 3 and the measurement and control device 41. The measurement and control device 41 is responsible for controlling the entire detection process and processing data from the detection head 42.
[0036] Furthermore, an antenna 6 is fixedly installed at the top end of the conical shell 21, and the antenna 6 is bidirectionally connected to the measurement and control device 41. As a key component of wireless communication, the antenna 6 is responsible for receiving signals from the outside and transmitting these signals to the measurement and control device 41 for processing. At the same time, the measurement and control device 41 can also send the data monitored by the buoy to an external receiving device or system through the antenna 6. The bidirectional connection between the antenna 6 and the measurement and control device 41 ensures real-time and two-way data transmission. The measurement and control device 41 can adjust the monitoring tasks or moving paths of the buoy according to the received instructions, and at the same time, it also timely feeds back the monitoring results to the external system.
[0037] Even further, a warning light 7 is fixedly installed at the top end of the conical shell 21, and the input end of the warning light 7 is connected to the output end of the storage battery 24. The warning light 7 is connected to the output end of the storage battery 24 through its input end and directly obtains electrical energy from the storage battery. When the storage battery 24 has sufficient power, the warning light 7 can work stably and emit bright and eye-catching light signals.
[0038] Specifically, the materials of the floating seat 1, the conical shell 21, and the frame of the UAV device 3 are all EVA materials. The low density of the EVA material makes the entire buoy structure lighter, which helps to reduce the resistance of the buoy in the water and improve the accuracy of movement and positioning. In the water environment, the EVA material can effectively resist the erosion of corrosion factors such as water, salt spray, and microorganisms, and extend the service life of the buoy. At the same time, the closed-cell structure of the EVA material gives it excellent buoyancy performance, which can ensure that the buoy floats stably on the water surface and can maintain stability even in an environment with rapid water flow or strong wind and waves.
[0039] More specifically, the floating seat 1 is arranged as a hollow shell in the shape of a Chinese character "hui". The "hui"-shaped design allows the detection head 42 to pass through the center of the floating seat 1 without damaging the overall structure of the floating seat 1. The hollow design can reduce the weight of the floating seat 1, and the hollow gas can also improve the buoyancy of the floating seat 1, thereby improving stability and safety.
[0040] In addition, a partition plate 23 for supporting the storage battery 24 and the inverter 25 is fixedly connected inside the conical shell 21. The support of the partition plate 23 improves the firmness of the storage battery 24 and the inverter inside the conical shell 21, which is beneficial to reducing the vibration of the equipment when floating on the water, improving stability, and extending the service life of the equipment.
[0041] Embodiment 2
[0042] Different from Embodiment 1, when working in a relatively complex underwater environment, there are problems that the detection head 42 is blocked, interfered with, or knocked. For this reason, a protective fence cover 5 fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the floating seat 1 is sleeved outside the detection head 42.
[0043] When the probe 42 works underwater, floating objects, waterweeds and other sundries in the water can be blocked by the protective fence housing 5 sleeved outside the probe 42, preventing contact with the probe 42 and avoiding occlusion or collision, so as to ensure the high-quality completion of the measurement and control work.
[0044] The above is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present application, according to the technical solution and its concept of the present application, makes equivalent replacements or changes, and should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
