Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of water conservancy monitoring, and in particular to an integrated monitoring station for reservoir rainfall conditions. Background Art
[0002] Rainfall monitoring stations are facilities used to monitor and collect real-time hydrological data such as rainfall, water levels, and flow. They play a vital role in flood control and drought relief, water resources management, environmental protection, and agricultural production. Through precise data collection and analysis, monitoring stations help improve the ability to predict hydrological events and the efficiency of emergency response.
[0003] In existing rainfall monitoring station designs, monitoring equipment is typically mounted high up on pipes, with the lower portion of the pipes submerged in water. In low-temperature environments, freezing water generates significant ice thrust, which can cause the pipes to repeatedly bend. This deformation of the pipes can not only compromise their structural integrity but, more importantly, can also cause the level gauges mounted on them to shift position. This misalignment of the level gauges directly impacts the accuracy and reliability of their measurements, and thus the credibility of the data from the entire monitoring station. Therefore, this structure presents significant functional limitations and potential measurement errors when faced with low-temperature freezing conditions. Utility Model Content

[0006] The utility model proposes an integrated monitoring station for rain and water conditions in a reservoir, comprising a pipe column, a rain and water condition monitoring component provided on the top of the pipe column, and at least two groups of mutually detachable anti-icing components, wherein the anti-icing components are arranged around the periphery of the pipe column to form an open arc or circular ring structure; wherein the chord length between the two end points of the open arc is greater than the diameter of the pipe column; the anti-icing component comprises an upper shell and a lower shell that can be opened and closed, and at least one group of ice-breaking units is provided in the lower shell, and the ice-breaking unit comprises a rotatable eccentric wheel, a rotating rod is connected to the outer side of the eccentric wheel, and the rotating rod passes through the outer side wall of the lower shell through a fisheye bearing and extends to the outside of the lower shell, so that the eccentric wheel drives the rotating rod to rotate with the fisheye bearing as a fulcrum; a driving unit for driving the eccentric wheel to rotate is provided in the upper shell.

[0008] Preferably, a secondary waterproof plate is provided in the lower shell, the secondary waterproof plate is placed between the gear and the eccentric wheel, and a waterproof bearing is commonly connected between the driving rod and the secondary waterproof plate.
[0009] Preferably, a sealing plate is detachably connected to the secondary waterproof plate, a through-hole is provided on the sealing plate for the rack to pass through, vertical guide rods are fixed on both sides of the sealing plate, guide holes are provided on both sides of the push plate, and the push plate moves on the guide rods through the guide holes.
[0010] Preferably, a joint bearing is commonly connected between the eccentric wheel and the rotating rod.
[0011] Preferably, the end of the rotating rod is connected to a dial plate.
[0012] Preferably, the anti-icing component has an arc-shaped structure, and the central angle formed by the two end points of the arc and the center of the circle in the arc-shaped structure is 120°.

[0015] The above technical solution has the following advantages or beneficial effects:
[0016] In the present invention, several groups of anti-icing components are arranged around the periphery of the pipe column, forming an open arc or ring structure that surrounds the pipe column. The eccentric wheel in the anti-icing component drives the rotating rod to rotate with the fisheye bearing as the fulcrum, thereby disturbing the surrounding water through the rotating rod located on the outside, creating a dynamic water flow effect. This disturbance helps to improve the fluidity of the water body, thereby reducing the possibility of ice forming on the water surface.

This flexible connection method not only improves the applicability and functionality of the anti-icing component, but also ensures the safety of the pipe string and the convenience of operation for workers.

[0026] In order to make the purpose, features, and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0027] It should be noted that, in the description of the present invention, terms such as "up", "down", "left", "right", "inside" and "outside" indicating directions or positional relationships are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. This is only for the convenience of description and does not indicate or imply that the device or element must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be understood as a limitation on the present invention.
[0028] Furthermore, it should be noted that, in the description of the present invention, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "mounted," "connected," and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they may refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; mechanical connections or electrical connections; direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and internal connections between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on specific circumstances.
[0029] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, this embodiment proposes an integrated reservoir rain and water monitoring station, including a pipe column 1, a rain and water monitoring component 2 is arranged on the top of the pipe column 1, and the rain and water monitoring component 2 includes a water level gauge platform, a rain gauge, a water level gauge, a solar power generation system, a lightning rod and communication equipment located on the top of the pipe column 1, and a ladder is also arranged on the side wall of the pipe column 1.
[0030] The system also includes at least two mutually removable anti-icing assemblies 3, which are arranged around the periphery of the pipe string 1 to form an open arc or ring structure. The anti-icing assemblies 3 are arc-shaped, with the central angle formed by the arc's endpoints and the center of the circle being 120°. The chord length between the endpoints of the open arc is greater than the diameter of the pipe string 1. This prevents the anti-icing assemblies 3 from being washed away by water within the confines of the pipe string 1.
[0031] Furthermore, the anti-icing assembly 3 includes an upper shell 31 and a lower shell 32 that can be opened and closed. At least one group of ice-breaking units 4 is arranged in the lower shell 32. The ice-breaking unit 4 includes a rotatable eccentric wheel 41. A rotating rod 42 is connected to the outside of the eccentric wheel 41. The rotating rod 42 passes through the outer wall of the lower shell 32 through a fisheye bearing 43 and extends to the outside of the lower shell 32. The fisheye bearing 43 is a waterproof structure, which prevents external water from entering the lower shell 32 to a certain extent. This design allows the eccentric wheel 41 to drive the rotating rod 42 to rotate with the fisheye bearing 43 as a fulcrum; the above-mentioned upper shell 31 is provided with a driving unit 5 for rotating the eccentric wheel 41.
[0032] In this design, the eccentric wheel 41 drives the rotating rod 42, which rotates around the fisheye bearing 43 outside the lower housing 32. This causes the rotating rod 42 to rotate, thereby disturbing the surrounding water and generating a dynamic water flow effect. This disturbance helps improve the fluidity of the water, thereby reducing the possibility of ice forming on the water surface. Furthermore, the rotation of the rotating rod 42 can break up existing thin ice layers and prevent them from thickening further.
[0033] In some embodiments, a rotatable driving rod 44 is provided in the lower housing 32, and the other end of the driving rod 44 is connected to the eccentric wheel 41. Figure 5 As shown, the driving rod 44 is connected to the lower part of one side of the eccentric wheel 41, and the rotating rod 42 is connected to the upper part of the other side of the eccentric wheel 41, with the fisheye bearing 43 as a fulcrum to realize the rotation of the rotating rod 42. A gear 45 is also fixedly sleeved on the rotating rod 42.
[0034] Furthermore, the drive unit 5 includes an electric push rod 51 disposed above the upper housing 31. A push plate 52 is connected to the end of the electric push rod 51. The push plate 52 is provided with a number of racks 53 corresponding to the number of ice-breaking units 4. The racks 53 can engage with the gears 45 to drive the eccentric wheel 41 to rotate. In this design, the solar power generation system provides power to the electric push rod 51, causing the electric push rod 51 to push the push plate 52 downward, which in turn drives the racks 53 downward. The racks 53 engage with several groups of gears 45, thereby simultaneously driving the rotation rods 42 in multiple groups of ice-breaking units 4 to rotate, saving cost.
[0035] In some embodiments, a secondary waterproof plate 6 is provided within the lower housing 32, positioned between the gear 45 and the eccentric wheel 41. A waterproof bearing is connected between the rotating rod 42 and the secondary waterproof plate 6. In this anti-icing assembly 3, the upper and lower housings 31 and 32 are used to form a closed cavity, ensuring the structure's lightness and good buoyancy, allowing it to float stably on the water without sinking. The further provision of the secondary waterproof plate 6 enhances the waterproof performance and significantly reduces the risk of water entering the interior. Even in extreme cases where excessive water enters the interior through the waterproof fisheye bearing 43, this design can maximize the structure's buoyancy and prevent sinking.
[0036] In some embodiments, the secondary waterproofing plate 6 is removably connected to a sealing plate 33 via bolts. The sealing plate 33 has perforations for the rack 53 to pass through. Vertical guide rods 34 are fixed to both sides of the sealing plate 33, and guide holes are provided on both sides of the push plate 52. The push plate 52 moves along the guide rods 34 through the guide holes, enabling stable up and down movement of the push plate 52 and thereby ensuring the stability of the meshing between the rack 53 and the gear 45. Specifically, the push plate 52 slides along the guide rods 34 through the guide holes, limiting its movement to only along the axis of the guide rod 34. This effectively reduces shaking and deflection of the push plate 52 during movement. This not only improves the precision and reliability of the meshing between the rack 53 and the gear 45, but also helps reduce wear and failures caused by poor meshing, thereby extending the overall service life of the anti-icing assembly 3.
[0037] In some embodiments, an articulated bearing connects the eccentric wheel 41 and the rotating rod 42; a paddle 7 is also connected to the end of the rotating rod 42. The articulated bearing provides a flexible and efficient connection between the eccentric wheel 41 and the rotating rod 42. This design allows the rotating rod 42 to rotate freely while rotating about the fulcrum, thereby driving the paddle 7 to rotate. This structure not only effectively breaks existing ice but also prevents the formation of new ice, thereby achieving the dual functions of ice breaking and anti-icing.
[0038] In some embodiments, a convex edge is fixed to the bottom of the lower housing 32, and a groove is defined at the bottom of the upper housing 31. When the upper and lower housings 31 and 32 are closed, the convex edge is located within the groove, forming a sealed space within the anti-icing assembly 3. This design not only ensures the buoyancy of the anti-icing assembly 3 but also enhances its waterproof performance, protecting the internal mechanical components from water damage and ensuring the long-term stable operation and reliability of the assembly.
[0039] In some embodiments, at least one set of threaded through holes 8 are provided at both ends of the anti-icing assembly 3, and a transverse U-shaped connecting plate 9 is provided with through holes 10 at both ends of the connecting plate 9. The connecting plate 9 is placed in the joint between adjacent anti-icing assemblies 3, and a bolt is passed through the through hole 10 and the threaded through hole 8 and then connected with a nut. Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the connecting plate 9 is designed to connect two or more adjacent anti-icing components 3 to facilitate on-site installation and disassembly and maintenance. In a pipe column 1 with a ladder, the connecting plate 9 can connect the anti-icing components 3 to form an open arc structure, leaving space for the ladder and ensuring that workers can climb without hindrance. In a pipe column 1 without a ladder, the connecting plate 9 can enable more anti-icing components 3 to form a complete circular ring structure, which can uniformly disturb all directions around the pipe column 1, effectively preventing the water from freezing, thereby protecting the structure of the pipe column 1 from the effects of freezing. This flexible connection method not only improves the applicability and functionality of the anti-icing components 3, but also ensures the safety of the pipe column 1 and the convenience of operation for workers.
[0040] The integrated reservoir rain and water monitoring station proposed in this embodiment includes the following installation process:
[0041] Pre-assemble the upper and lower shells 31 and 32 to form the anti-icing assembly 3. Insert the connecting plate 9 into the joint between two adjacent anti-icing assemblies 3, aligning the through-holes 10 with the threaded through-holes 8. Insert the bolts through the through-holes 10 and 8, and tighten the nuts at the base of the bolts. Once assembled, place the assembled anti-icing assemblies 3 on the water surface. Due to the internal cavity, they will partially float, while the rotating rod 42 exposed in the lower shell 32 will be submerged. Electrically connecting the electric push rod 51 to the solar power generation system indirectly drives the rotating rod 42 to rotate, thereby disturbing the water and reducing the possibility of ice forming on the surface.
[0042] Although the above describes the specific implementation methods of the invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, it does not limit the scope of protection of the invention. Based on the technical solution of the present invention, various modifications or variations that can be made by those skilled in the art without creative work are still within the scope of protection of the present invention.
