Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of river flow velocity measurement, in particular to a portable field surface river flow measurement device. Background Art

[0002] In hydrogeological survey, especially in hydrogeology, it is necessary to measure the flow velocity and flow rate of surface rivers to obtain the relationship between surface water and groundwater recharge, runoff and discharge. The common measurement methods for surface river flow velocity and flow rate in existing hydrogeological surveys are methods such as the float method, triangular weir, and rectangular weir.

[0003] The patent with the publication number CN110954069B discloses a river cross-section penetration type precise flow measurement device and method. The device includes a driving motor and a wire reel, a pulley orientation measurement device capable of precisely measuring the wire length, a wire anti-sway structure, a declination and inclination correction device, a water depth measurement device, and a flow velocity measurement device. The driving motor of the device drives the wire reel to rotate for lowering and recovering movements. After the wire passes through the pulley orientation measurement device and the wire anti-sway structure at the top, the water depth measurement device and the flow velocity measurement device are loaded for penetration type measurement work. However, the above device is suitable for detecting at a fixed-position river cross-section, and it is also necessary to have obtained the river cross-section information during detection, and it is not suitable for carrying to the field for flow measurement operations of unknown rivers.

[0004] The patent with the publication number CN118518900A discloses a float flow measurement device and method based on RISCV, including a float detection terminal and a cloud server. The float detection terminal includes a spherical outer shell, a microcontroller encapsulated in the outer shell, a data acquisition module electrically connected to the microcontroller, and a communication module. The data acquisition module is used to send position information to the microcontroller. The microcontroller is used to use the position information and time stamp as detection data, and send the detection data to the cloud server through the communication module; the cloud server is used to store, view and export the detection data, analyze the movement trajectory of the float detection terminal based on the position information and time stamp to form a trajectory map, and is used to calculate the flow velocity of the river by the float method based on the weight of the float detection terminal and the cross-sectional flow area of the river where it is located. However, the float detection terminal of the above device uses a spherical outer shell as the float seat to float on the river, which is greatly affected by the wind, cannot move stably along the water flow path, and is easily deviated from the normal measurement path due to factors such as water flow turbulence or local vortices. Moreover, due to the different flow velocities at different positions in the river width direction, on the premise of keeping the overall volume appropriate, the spherical outer shell cannot contact the water flow in the river width direction as much as possible, affecting its detection accuracy.

Detailed Embodiment

[0034] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present utility model more obvious and understandable, the following will describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present utility model with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to fully understand the present utility model. However, the present utility model can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without departing from the connotation of the present utility model. Therefore, the present utility model is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0035] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 , the embodiment of the present application provides a portable field surface river flow measurement device, which includes a floating body 1 that can float on water. A cavity 11 is provided inside the floating body 1. The device further includes a detection device 2, a liquid level detection device 3, a stability maintenance mechanism 4, a speed measurement device 5, a wireless transmission device 6, and a ground base station 7;

[0036] Among them, the detection device 2 is installed at the bottom of the floating body 1 and is used to scan the river channel contour; the detection device 2 is a radar detection device 2, a sonar detection device 2, etc., which can detect the river channel contour by emitting signals to the river channel and receiving the reflected signals;

[0037] The liquid level detection device 3 is installed on the floating body 1 and is used to detect the river liquid level; the liquid level detection device 3 selects a radar level gauge and is installed at the upper end tail of the floating body 1 through a mounting bracket;

[0038] The stability maintenance mechanism 4 is used to maintain the stability of the floating body 1 when drifting in water, and includes a hollow multi-section telescopic rod 401, an underwater electric push rod 402, a drive motor 403, a winding wheel 404, and a weight member 405. Two multi-section telescopic rods 401 and two underwater electric push rods 402 are hinged to the bottom of the floating body 1. The underwater electric push rod 402 has a certain waterproof function and can operate normally underwater. The multi-section telescopic rod 401 is a multi-section telescopic rod with a hollow multi-section structure in the prior art and can be telescoped under the action of an external force. A weight member 405 is installed at the lower end of the multi-section telescopic rod 401. The weight member 405 is a smooth sphere with a density much greater than that of water. The multi-section telescopic rods 401 correspond to the underwater electric push rods 402 one by one. The output end of the underwater electric push rod 402 is hinged to the corresponding multi-section telescopic rod 401. The drive motor 403 is fixedly installed in the cavity 11. The drive motor 403 is a stepping motor. The winding wheel 404 is rotatably installed in the cavity 11. Two winding wheels 404 are provided and correspond to the multi-section telescopic rods 401 one by one. A pulling rope 406 is wound on the winding wheel 404. An opening communicating with the cavity 11 is provided at the bottom of the floating body 1. The free end of the pulling rope 406 passes through the opening and the inner cavity of the multi-section telescopic rod 401 and is connected to the inner wall of the lowermost telescopic rod of the multi-section telescopic rod 401. The drive motor 403 drives the two winding wheels 404 to rotate, and the rotation directions of the two winding wheels 404 are set to be opposite. By driving the winding wheels 404 to rotate through the drive motor 403, the two winding wheels 404 simultaneously pay out or wind up the pulling rope 406. When the pulling rope 406 is paid out, the multi-section telescopic rod 401 extends and drives the weight member 405 to descend. When the pulling rope 406 is wound up, the multi-section telescopic rod 401 contracts and drives the weight member 405 to ascend. By driving the multi-section telescopic rod 401 to rotate outward through the underwater electric push rod 402, the two underwater electric push rods 402 work synchronously, which can avoid the center of gravity of the measuring device from shifting;

[0039] To facilitate the drive motor 403 to drive the two winding wheels 404 to rotate, it is provided that the stability maintenance mechanism 4 further includes a winding shaft 407, a guide shaft 408, a guide wheel 409, and a winding gear 410. Two winding shafts 407 and two guide shafts 408 are provided. The winding shaft 407 and the guide shaft 408 are both rotatably installed in the cavity 11.

Winding gears 410 are installed on the winding shafts 407. The two winding gears 410 are meshed and connected. The drive motor 403 is connected to one of the winding shafts 407 through a coupling. Guide wheels 409 are installed on the guide shafts 408. The guide wheels 409 correspond to the winding wheels 404 one by one. The pulling rope 406 on the winding wheel 404 bypasses the guide wheel 409 and then passes through the opening. The guide wheel 409 plays a guiding role for the pulling rope 406, so that when the underwater electric push rod 402 drives the multi-section telescopic rod 401 to tilt, the winding wheel 404 can still smoothly pay out and wind up the pulling rope 406;

[0040] The speed measurement device 5 is used to detect the floating speed of the floating body 1 on the water;

[0041] The wireless transmission device 6 is installed in the cavity 11;

[0042] The ground base station 7 is communicatively connected to the detection device 2, the liquid level detection device 3, and the speed measurement device 5; in this embodiment, the speed measurement device 5 is a radar speedometer, which can be a handheld radar speedometer or a radar speedometer fixed on the ground. The ground base station 7 is specifically a controller with a display screen capable of receiving and transmitting wireless signals. The speed measurement device 5 and the ground base station 7 are both set on the river bank during operation. The radar speedometer judges the speed of the floating body 1 by emitting signals to the floating body 1 and according to the reflected signals of the floating body 1. The speed measurement device 5 is communicatively connected to the ground base station 7 through a data line, and the ground base station 7 is wirelessly communicatively connected to the detection device 2 and the liquid level detection device 3 through the wireless transmission device 6; in other embodiments, the speed measurement device 5 can also be a GNSS device. When the speed measurement device 5 is a GNSS device, it is installed on the floating body 1. The ground base station 7 calculates the moving speed of the floating body 1 by obtaining the position signals sent by the GNSS device;

[0043] Among them, the ground base station 7 constructs a three-dimensional cross-section of the river according to the scanning information of the detection device 2, and uses the data of the positions of the floating body 1 at n moments selected in the river measurement section as samples. According to the river liquid level information detected by the liquid level detection device 3, it calculates the cross-sectional area Si of the river at the sample position of the floating body 1, calculates the river flow velocity Vi at the sample position of the floating body 1 according to the floating speed of the floating body 1 detected by the speed measurement device 5, calculates the river flow rate Qi at the sample position of the floating body 1, and calculates the average river flow rate in the measurement section as Q=( ∑ Q i ) / n , where Qi = Vi * Si, 1 ≤ i ≤ n, and i is a positive integer.

[0044] Through the detection device 2 and the ground base station 7, the flow measurement operation of the unknown river cross-section data in the wild can be realized. By using the data of the positions of the floating body 1 at n moments selected in the river measurement section as samples, the average river flow rate in the measurement section is calculated, and the average river flow rate in the measurement section is used as the river flow rate. Compared with the river cross-section flow rate at a single position, the measurement error can be reduced and the measurement accuracy can be improved.

[0045] By setting the stability maintenance mechanism 4, the buoy can be more easily kept vertical in the water, and at the same time, the influence of the wind on pushing the floating body 1 can be reduced;

[0046] By setting up the multi - section telescopic rod 401 and the load - bearing member 405, driving the winding wheel 404 to rotate through the driving motor 403, and unwinding the pulling rope 406, the multi - section telescopic rod 401 extends and drives the load - bearing member 405 to descend. The multi - section telescopic rod 401 and the load - bearing member 405 can fully contact the water areas with different water depths, and can approximately measure the average velocity of the river vertical line, making the moving speed of the floating body 1 closer to the true flow velocity of the river and improving the flow measurement accuracy. By driving the multi - section telescopic rod 401 to rotate outward through the underwater electric push rod 402, the multi - section telescopic rod 401 and the load - bearing member 405 can contact the water flows in different regions in the river width direction, making the floating speed of the flow measurement device closer to the average flow velocity of the whole river and improving the detection accuracy. According to the river channel contour detected by the detection device 2, the position of the obstacles on the floating path can also be judged, which is convenient for driving the multi - section telescopic rod 401 to contract through the driving motor 403 or driving the multi - section telescopic rod 401 to rotate through the underwater electric push rod 402 to avoid obstacles.

[0048] In one embodiment, to facilitate observing the underwater environment, please refer to Figure 2 , an underwater 360° camera 8 is installed at the bottom of the floating body 1. The underwater 360° camera 8 is communicatively connected to the ground base station 7 through a wireless transmission device 6.

The ground base station 7 can also transmit signals to the underwater 360° camera 8 through the wireless transmission device 6 to control the rotation of the underwater 360° camera 8, facilitating the observation of images from different angles. Furthermore, it can be judged whether there are obstacles in front of the floating trajectory and the position of the obstacles, which is convenient for driving the multi - section telescopic rod 401 to contract through the driving motor 403 or driving the multi - section telescopic rod 401 to rotate through the underwater electric push rod 402 to avoid obstacles.

[0049] In one embodiment, to facilitate power supply to each electrical component on the floating body 1, please refer to Figure 2 , a storage battery 9 is installed in the cavity 11. The storage battery 9 is electrically connected to the detection device 2, the liquid level detection device 3, the driving motor 403, the underwater electric push rod 402, and the wireless transmission device 6.
