Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of constant water level measurement and control devices, in particular to a weighing type constant water level measurement and control device. Background Technique

[0002] The constant water level measurement and control device is used in a pit / ground permeameter system to provide a stable and variable groundwater level for measuring soil columns, and simultaneously measure the groundwater evaporation and soil leakage.

[0003] Conventionally, the leakage / groundwater evaporation is measured by an automatic groundwater level monitoring device based on the principle of Mariotte bottle.

[0004] The Mariotte bottle is a device for stabilizing the liquid level height, including an inverted bottle body 1, a drain pipe 2 is connected to the bottom end of the bottle body 1, and an air inlet pipe 3 is also connected to the bottle body 1, and the air inlet pipe 3 is connected to a telescopic pipe 4.

[0005] When the water level in the external water tank is controlled to drop below the position of the air inlet 3, the air inlet pipe 3 is exposed to the air, and air enters the bottle body 1 under the action of atmospheric pressure. The water surface pressure in the bottle is the same as the atmospheric pressure. Under the action of its own gravity, the water in the bottle flows into the external water tank through the drain pipe 2, causing the water level in the water tank to rise. When the water level in the water tank rises above the air inlet pipe 3, water will enter the air inlet pipe, and the atmosphere can no longer enter the water supply bottle body. When the air in the upper part of the bottle body forms a vacuum and the vacuum pressure balances with the water column pressure in the bottle, the water in the bottle stops flowing out, and the water level in the external water tank no longer rises.

[0006] In practical applications, the lower end of the vent pipe and the upper end of the overflow pipe of the device based on the Mariotte bottle principle should be as close as possible to a horizontal plane, but they cannot be exactly on the same horizontal plane, otherwise it will cause water injection and drainage at the same time and cannot work properly. To ensure normal operation, the upper end of the overflow pipe must be higher than the lower end of the vent pipe, which results in an inevitable observation blind area in the conversion of leakage and groundwater evaporation measurement, and the leakage and groundwater evaporation are measured by 2 sensors respectively, resulting in systematic errors, as Figure 2 shown;

[0007] The Mariotte bottle principle determines that:

[0008] (1) The vent pipe orifice and the overflow pipe orifice can only be as close as possible to the water level balance surface, but the two orifices will not be exactly on the same plane (the overflow pipe orifice will be slightly higher than the water level balance surface), otherwise the surface tension of water will cause continuous overflow. In the actual assembly of the instrument and the installation of the equipment, there is a large deviation in the height difference, and the height difference between the two orifices will result in an inevitable observation blind area in the conversion of leakage and groundwater evaporation, and this blind area is about 1 - 10 mm.

[0009] (2) The leakage and groundwater evaporation need to and can only be measured by 2 sensors respectively, resulting in systematic errors.

[0010] For this reason, a weighing type constant water level measurement and control device is proposed. Content of the Utility Model

[0011] The purpose of the present utility model is to provide a weighing type constant water level measurement and control device to solve the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology.

[0012] To solve the above technical problems, the present utility model provides the following technical solution: A weighing type constant water level measurement and control device includes a constant water level water tank. The constant water level water tank is connected to a lysimeter or a soil pit through a water level connecting pipe. An overflow water pipe is penetrated through the lower side wall of the constant water level water tank. The overflow water pipe is connected to a weighing water bucket. An upper water pipe is connected between the weighing water bucket and the constant water level water tank. And a water pump is provided on the upper water pipe. A weighing platform is provided at the bottom of the weighing water bucket.

[0013] According to the above technical solution, the weighing water bucket is located at the lower end of the constant water level water tank.

[0014] According to the above technical solution, it further includes a base. The weighing platform is arranged on the upper surface of the base. A leveling mechanism is provided on the base.

[0015] According to the above technical solution, a guide rail is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base. The constant water level water tank is movably connected with the guide rail.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by the present utility model are as follows: By setting a constant water level water tank in the present utility model, based on the principle of continuous overflow and constant water level, the water level is kept continuously stable. To ensure continuous overflow, the water supply is greater than the actual evaporation water consumption. The excess water flows back to the weighing water replenishing bucket through the overflow pipe. At the same time, the soil infiltration flow also enters the weighing water replenishing bucket through the overflow pipe. The weighing water replenishing bucket is continuously weighed regularly through the weighing platform, and thus the real-time evaporation amount or real-time infiltration amount of the lysimeter can be obtained. Moreover, there is no measurement blind area in the conversion between evaporation and infiltration. By changing the height position of the constant water level water tank, the groundwater depth of the lysimeter or the soil pit can be accurately set. The observation blind area in the conversion between seepage and phreatic evaporation is eliminated; it is realized that the seepage amount and the phreatic evaporation amount are measured by the same sensor, eliminating the systematic error; the phreatic depth can be adjusted arbitrarily to obtain the phreatic evaporation amount with different groundwater depths changing with seasons.
