Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a bottom-mounted observation bracket, in particular to a portable integrated stainless steel bottom-mounted wave-current-sediment comprehensive observation bracket. Background Art
[0002] The muddy coast is mainly located near some large river estuaries and is distributed in many countries around the world. The muddy coast in China accounts for a quite large proportion, about one-fourth of the continental coastline, including the estuaries of the Haihe River, the Yangtze River, the Pearl River, etc., and is distributed from north to south. The characteristics of the muddy coast are: the coastline is straight, the slope of the beach is extremely gentle, and the intertidal flat between the high tide level and the low tide level is broad. The muddy coast is mainly composed of extremely fine sediment particles, which are also called cohesive sediment. Its characteristic is that it is easily stirred and suspended by dynamic factors such as waves and tides, often causing the siltation of ports and waterways and the erosion and deposition changes of the beach. In addition, pollutants in seawater are particularly easy to adsorb on the cohesive fine-grained sediment, and the movement of the fine-grained sediment is often closely related to the migration of pollutants. Therefore, when studying practical engineering problems such as the protection of the muddy coast, the maintenance of the water depth of ports and waterways, and the regulation of river estuaries, as well as the coastal and estuarine environmental problems, it is necessary to focus on the movement of cohesive fine-grained sediment.
[0003] To study the movement of cohesive fine-grained sediment, technical means such as sediment mathematical models, sediment physical models, and on-site prototype observations are mainly comprehensively used. In order to better cooperate with the special research of sediment mathematical models or physical models, on the basis of selecting advanced and reliable observation instruments for on-site prototype observations, it is required that the supporting observation bracket (platform) can be applicable to the integrated wave-current-sediment comprehensive observation. Content of the Utility Model

A suspension ring rotatably connected to the leveling support structure is provided outside the leveling support structure; a bottom-current observation instrument placement device is provided on the side of the mounting plate; a turbidity meter placement device extending along the length direction is provided outside any one of the legs.
[0006] The main body of the tripod support is made of stainless steel channel steel, and the mounting plate is made of triangular stainless steel plate. The three corner ends of the triangular stainless steel plate adopt a structure of sharpening, flattening and bending downward, and are connected to the upper ends of the legs.

[0016] The above-mentioned integrated support can carry a wave and current monitor, a turbidity meter and a bottom current monitor at the same time, can collect wave, sea current data, bottom sediment concentration and sea current data at a fixed point, and can also be appropriately equipped with other instrument devices according to technical requirements to realize more hydrological element collection functions.
[0017] A more preferred solution of this embodiment is as follows:
[0018] The main body of the tripod is made of stainless steel channel steel, the mounting plate 4 is made of triangular stainless steel plate, and the three corner ends of the triangular stainless steel plate adopt a structure of sharpening, trimming and bending downwards to be connected with the upper ends of the legs, with a light and firm structure.
[0019] The leveling support structure includes an inner ring 2.1, a middle ring 2.2, and an outer ring 2.3 that are coaxially arranged. The inner ring 2.1 fits under the head of the wave and current observation instrument. The inner ring 2.1 is rotatably connected to the middle ring 2.2 through two pin shafts I arranged along its radial direction. The middle ring 2.2 is rotatably connected to the outer ring 2.3 through two pin shafts II arranged along its radial direction. The pin shaft I is perpendicular to the pin shaft II. On the outside of the outer ring 2.3, there are three connecting ear plates evenly distributed along the circumferential direction. Outside the through hole, there are support platforms corresponding to the connecting ear plates one by one. The connecting ear plates are fixedly connected to the support platforms by bolts 3. For the above leveling support structure, please refer to the utility model patent with the patent number ZL202021652081.0 and the utility model name of a portable stainless steel bottom-mounted wave and current observation platform. The above leveling support structure can keep the wave and current observation instrument in a vertical state all the time, meeting the requirements of the instrument for observing wave and current data in terms of attitude.
[0020] On the outer ring 2.3, there is a hanging ring 1 rotatably connected to it. The rotation connection axis of the hanging ring 1 and the outer ring 2.3 extends along the radial direction of the outer ring 2.3. The rotation installation structure of the hanging ring 1 can avoid adverse effects on the instrument observation.

[0025] Before the whole set of integrated bracket is put into the water, the turbidity meter, the wave and current observation instrument, and the bottom current observation instrument are placed and fixed on the corresponding devices, and then they are lowered to the seabed by a rope. After a diver dives and determines the balance and stability of the whole set of brackets, the rope is untied, and the bracket is allowed to sit firmly on the seabed after being lowered. If the on-site natural conditions permit, it can also be manually put into the water by experienced field personnel at a time when the wind, wave, and current are relatively small, with a rope passing through the hanging ring 1. After the observation is completed, the integrated bracket is salvaged and recovered. After removing the turbidity meter, the wave and current observation instrument, and the bottom current observation instrument, the bracket body is disassembled and washed with fresh water and dried, and then it can be reused.
[0026] The bracket has passed the actual tests of several on-site engineering projects, achieving good observation effects and obtaining complete high-quality wave, tide, and sediment data, which strongly supports the special research on relevant sediment mathematical models (or physical models) and has been unanimously recognized by the research institutions.
