Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of groundwater monitoring, in particular to a low-flow and non-disturbing groundwater sampling device. Background Technique
[0002] Groundwater is not only an indispensable natural resource, but also an important environmental element and ecological support condition. With the continuous development of social economy, the degree of development and utilization of groundwater by people is getting higher and higher, and thus it is necessary to monitor the groundwater quality.
[0003] The accuracy of groundwater monitoring depends on whether representative water samples can be collected. Traditional groundwater sampling usually uses a bailer or a manual inertial pump as a sampling tool. The use of a bailer or a manual inertial pump will inevitably disturb the water samples in the monitoring well, and cannot meet the monitoring requirements for special indicators such as volatile organic compounds, thus affecting the accuracy of water quality monitoring data. Therefore, it is particularly important to use a suitable sampling device in groundwater monitoring. Summary of the Utility Model

The airbag includes an upper airbag and a lower airbag. The part between the two airbags forms a water collection cavity. The connecting plate includes an upper connecting plate and a lower connecting plate. There are more than two telescopic connecting rods between the upper connecting plate and the lower connecting plate. The upper airbag and the lower airbag are installed through the telescopic connecting rods, and a seal is formed at the penetration. The airbag pump is fixed on the telescopic connecting rod through a fixing ring. The air outlet of the air compressor is respectively connected to a first air pipe and a second air pipe. The first air pipe is connected to the airbag, and the second air pipe is connected to the airbag pump. A first valve and a second valve are respectively installed on the first air pipe and the second air pipe. An air pipe interface and a water sampling pipe interface are arranged on the airbag pump, and are respectively connected to a second air pipe and a water sampling pipe. An air pipe interface is arranged on the airbag and is connected to the first air pipe.
