[0029] The principles and features of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0030] Example 1

[0031] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an automatic remote sensing device for rainfall includes a base column 1, a rain gauge 2 is provided on the top of the base column 1, the base column 1 is hollow inside and is provided with a control module, a communication module and a power module, the rain gauge 2 is electrically connected to the control module, the control module is electrically connected to the communication module and the power module respectively, a photovoltaic panel 3 is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the base column 1, and the photovoltaic panel 3 is electrically connected to the power module.

[0032] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are: the rain gauge 2 collects rainfall conditions in various places in real time, and then processes and transmits the data through the control module and the communication module, with high collection efficiency and timely feedback. The photovoltaic panel 3 ensures that the equipment has sufficient power and can operate for a long time, thereby improving the accuracy of rainfall monitoring and data consistency.

[0033] Specifically, the weather station conducts remote monitoring of various places through rainfall monitoring devices installed in various places. When the rain gauge 2 collects data, it transmits it to the control module. The control module controls the communication module to send the data to the weather station. The weather station summarizes and analyzes the data and produces a rainfall map.

[0034] The bottom column 1 is used to raise the horizontal height of the rain gauge 2 to avoid being affected by other people or objects. The bottom of the bottom column 1 is a concrete base to ensure the internal balance of the rain gauge 2, accurate measurement, and avoid settlement.

[0035] Example 2

[0036] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, preferably, on the basis of Example 1, a connecting plate 4 is fixedly connected to the outer peripheral wall of the base column 1, an adjustment plate 5 is hingedly connected to one end of the connecting plate 4 away from the base column 1, and the photovoltaic panel 3 is fixedly installed on the end of the adjustment plate 5 away from the connecting plate 4.

[0037] The beneficial effect of adopting the preferred solution in the above embodiment is that the direction of the photovoltaic panel 3 can be adjusted by the adjustment plate 5 to ensure that it can absorb enough light and maximize the power generation efficiency.

[0038] Specifically, the connecting plate 4 is provided with a plurality of screw holes in different directions, and the adjusting plate 5 is anchored in different screw holes according to the need of adjusting the angle.

[0039] Example 3

[0040] like Figures 4 and 5 As shown, preferably, based on embodiment 1-2, the rain gauge 2 is a tipping bucket rain gauge.

[0041] The beneficial effects of adopting the preferred solution in the above embodiment are: the tipping bucket rain gauge has high accuracy, stability and reliability, and is not easily affected by adverse weather conditions.

[0042] Specifically, the tipping bucket rain gauge structure includes an outer cylinder, a concave rain collector 201 is provided on the top of the outer cylinder, a filter 202 is provided at the bottom of the rain collector 201, the filter 202 is in the shape of a stepped shaft, and each step of the stepped shaft is provided with multiple slender holes. Below the filter 202 are a funnel 203 and a tipping bucket 204, and a counter is provided at the tipping bucket 204. When the tipping bucket 204 loses balance after receiving rainwater, a count is performed each time it tips over, and the amount of rainfall is determined by the counting frequency.

[0043] Example 4

[0044] like Figures 4 to 6 As shown, preferably, on the basis of Examples 1-3, a mounting seat 8 is fixedly provided on the side wall of the outer cylinder of the tipping bucket rain gauge, a rotating shaft 9 is horizontally rotatably installed in the mounting seat 8, a connecting column 10 is fixedly connected to the circumferential outer wall of the rotating shaft 9, the other end of the connecting column 10 extends to the top surface of the outer cylinder and is fixedly connected to a retaining ring 6, and a wire mesh 7 is provided on the inner side of the circumference of the retaining ring 6.

[0045] The beneficial effects of adopting the preferred solution in the above embodiment are: the rotating shaft 9 drives the retaining ring 6 to cover the top surface of the outer cylinder, and the wire mesh 7 filters out debris such as fallen leaves and plastic bags to avoid interference with the monitoring of the tipping bucket rain gauge.

[0046] Preferably, a rotational power source 14 is fixedly mounted on the side wall of the outer cylinder of the tipping bucket rain gauge, and the output shaft of the rotational power source 14 is power-connected to the rotating shaft 9 .

[0047] The beneficial effect of adopting the preferred solution in the above embodiment is: the rotation of the rotating shaft 9 is electrically controlled to realize remote opening or closing of the retaining ring 6, which facilitates the removal of debris above the retaining ring 6.

[0048] Specifically, the tipping bucket rain gauge has the disadvantage of being easily clogged by debris. When the rain gauge 2 is placed at a location such as a riverside, a rooftop, or outdoors, the rain collector 201 is concave and may collect a large amount of fallen leaves, plastic bags, and other floating objects in the sky, causing clogging and preventing normal measurement.

[0049] Therefore, by covering with a retaining ring 6 and a wire mesh 7, fallen leaves and debris are prevented from entering the rain collector 201. The wire mesh 7 has a large hollow and will not affect normal rain collection. After long-term use, fallen leaves and debris may also block the wire mesh 7. The rotating power source 14 regularly drives the rotating shaft 9 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 9 drives the retaining ring 6 and the wire mesh 7 to swing, thereby removing the fallen leaves and debris on the top.

[0050] In addition, a rain shield box 17 is fixedly provided on the side wall of the outer cylinder, and the rotary power source 14 is placed in the rain shield box 17. One end of the rotating shaft 9 passes through the side wall of the rain shield box 17 and extends into the interior of the rain shield box 17 and is connected to the rotary power source 14.

[0051] Based on this embodiment, the rotational power source 14 is a servo motor or a direct drive motor.

[0052] Example 5

[0053] like Figures 4 to 6 As shown, preferably, on the basis of embodiments 1-4, a plurality of fixing rings 11 are fixedly provided on the wire mesh 7, one end of the fixing ring 11 facing the inner side of the outer cylinder is fixedly connected to a limiting ring platform 12, and a fan 13 is clamped in the fixing ring 11.

[0054] The beneficial effect of adopting the preferred solution in the above embodiment is that the fan 13 drives air circulation, thereby preventing dust from accumulating and causing the filter 202 of the tipping bucket rain gauge to be blocked.

[0055] Specifically, when the rain gauge 2 is placed in a harsh environment, dust or sediment will settle inside the rain collector 201 due to its concave shape. Over time, this may clog the holes of the filter 202. The fan 13 is inserted into the fixing ring 11, with the air outlet side of the fan 13 facing the inside of the rain collector 201. The limiting ring 12 supports the edge of the fan 13, and the fan 13 drives the air flow in the rain collector 201 to prevent dust from settling.

[0056] If the ambient air quality is good, the fan 13 can be removed, and the size of the fixing ring 11 is the same as the single hollow part of the wire mesh 7, and it can still block fallen leaves and debris.

[0057] On the basis of this embodiment, a plurality of fixing rings 11 and fans 13 can be installed on the retaining ring 6 , and a wire groove is provided inside the retaining ring 6 to facilitate the wiring of the fans 13 .

[0058] Example 6

[0059] like Figure 3 As shown, preferably, on the basis of embodiments 1-5, a mounting plate 15 is provided inside the base column 1, the control module, communication module and power module are all fixedly mounted on the side wall of the mounting plate 15, and a handle 16 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the mounting plate 15.

[0060] The beneficial effect of adopting the preferred solution in the above embodiment is that it is convenient for workers to grasp and lift the control module, communication module and power module for inspection and maintenance.
