[0002] Channel sediment depth measurement refers to the process of measuring the depth of the sediment layer deposited at the bottom of the channel (such as rivers, irrigation channels, drainage channels, etc.) through which water flows. This measurement is crucial in the fields of water conservancy projects, hydrological research, environmental protection, and agricultural irrigation.

[0003] In a channel, the silt carried by the water flow will gradually settle down when the flow rate slows down or encounters obstacles, forming a silt layer. The thickness and distribution of these silt layers will directly affect the water flow characteristics, water delivery capacity, maintenance costs and ecological environment of the channel. Therefore, regular channel silt depth measurement and understanding of silt deposition are of great significance for channel planning, design, construction, operation and maintenance.

[0027] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown:

[0029] Embodiment 1: The utility model provides a channel sediment depth measuring device, comprising:

[0030] The depth measuring mechanism 1 comprises a mounting assembly 11 and a plurality of depth measuring assemblies 12 mounted on the mounting assembly 11;

[0031] The transverse movement mechanism 2 includes a transverse movement component 21 matched with the installation component 11, and a driving component 22 arranged outside the transverse movement component 21, and the driving component 22 can drive the transverse movement component 21 to drive the installation component 11 to move;

[0032] Among them, a position with a cross bridge 4 is selected on the channel 3, and the transverse movement component 21 is fixedly installed on the cross bridge 4. The depth of the channel sediment can be measured by controlling a number of depth measuring components 12 to work, and the transverse movement component 21 can be controlled to work. The operation of the transverse movement component 21 can make the installation component 11 move laterally along the cross bridge 4, thereby facilitating a number of depth measuring components 12 to measure the sediment depth at different positions of the channel 3.

[0033] Specifically, the mounting assembly 11 includes a mounting plate 111 , and a single-chip computer 112 and a display screen 113 are fixedly mounted on the upper side of the mounting plate 111 .

[0034] Specifically, the depth measurement component 12 includes a motor 121 and a pressure sensor 122. The output end of the motor 121 is fixedly connected to a winding wheel 123. The outer side of the winding wheel 123 is fixedly connected to a thin rope 124. The end of the thin rope 124 is fixedly connected to a lead sinker 125.

[0035] Specifically, the pressure sensor 122 is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate 111 , the motor 121 is fixedly mounted on the pressure sensor 122 , and the thin rope 124 can be wound around the outer side of the winding wheel 123 .

[0036] As can be seen from the above, during the detection, the single-chip microcomputer 112 controls the motor 121 to work, and the motor 121 can make the winding wheel 123 rotate, and the rotation of the winding wheel 123 can make the thin rope 124 be released. After the thin rope 124 is released, the lead weight 125 will fall into the channel 3 under the action of gravity. At this time, the pressure sensor 122 can monitor the total weight of the motor 121, the winding wheel 123, the thin rope 124 and the lead weight 125. When the thin rope 124 is continuously released and the lead weight 125 touches the bottom, the total weight monitored by the pressure sensor 122 decreases and is fed back to the single-chip microcomputer 112, so that the single-chip microcomputer 112 controls the motor 121 to stop; by monitoring the stop time of multiple motors 121, the sediment depth in the channel 3 can be simulated and displayed on the display screen 113; after the detection is completed, the single-chip microcomputer 112 controls the motor 121 to reverse, so as to retract the thin rope 124 and the lead weight 125.

[0037] Embodiment 2: This embodiment is basically the same as the previous embodiment, except that a slider 114 and a moving wheel 115 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting plate 111 .

[0038] Specifically, the transverse movement component 21 includes a U-shaped base 211, a guide rod 212 is fixedly connected in the middle of the U-shaped base 211, a ball screw 213 parallel to the guide rod 212 is also provided on the U-shaped base 211, and a gear 1 214 is fixedly connected to the end of the ball screw 213; the driving component 22 includes a motor 221, and a gear 222 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 221.

[0039] Specifically, the ball screw 213 is installed on the U-shaped base 211 through a bearing, the slider 114 is matched with the ball screw 213, the slider 114 is slidably embedded in the guide rod 212, the motor 221 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the U-shaped base 211, and the gear 222 and the gear 1 214 are meshed with each other; the single-chip microcomputer 112 and the motor 1 121 are electrically connected, the single-chip microcomputer 112 and the display screen 113 are electrically connected, the single-chip microcomputer 112 and the pressure sensor 122 are electrically connected, and the single-chip microcomputer 112 and the motor 2 21 are electrically connected.

[0040] As can be seen from the above, turning on motor 221 can make gear 222 drive gear 1 214 to rotate, and the rotation of gear 1 214 can make the ball screw 213 rotate, and the rotation of ball screw 213 can make the slider 114 drive the mounting plate 111 to move along the guide rod 212, so that the staff can measure different horizontal positions in channel 3, so as to measure the siltation condition of the overall cross section of channel 3.

[0041] Embodiment 3: This embodiment is basically the same as the previous embodiment, except that it further comprises a control system of a measuring device, comprising the channel sediment depth measuring device as described above, and further comprising:

[0042] Data acquisition and processing module: integrated in the single chip, responsible for receiving real-time data from each pressure sensor; responsible for sending the processed data to the display screen for real-time display;
