[0002] In the process of waterway construction, it is usually necessary to carry out tide observation activities, and tide observation refers to the process of obtaining tide information by measuring the height change of sea level. The main purpose of tide observation is to understand the local tide nature, so as to carry out tide prediction, calculate the average sea level, depth datum, etc. By collecting and calculating the tide level data of the construction area to form a tide level model, better guidance can be provided for construction activities, the accuracy and effectiveness of construction can be improved, construction risks can be checked and evaluated in advance, and prospective management can be carried out.

[0003] In the prior art, the foregoing tide observation activities are carried out by using a tide gauge, which is a relatively precise measuring instrument, usually including an acoustic tide gauge, a direct pressure sensing pressure tide gauge, etc. During tide observation, the tide gauge is lowered to the water bottom, and depth data is recorded. In the existing operation, in order to enable the tide gauge to stably settle on the water bottom mud surface, the tide gauge usually needs to be provided with a counterweight (such as a stone, a cement pier, etc.). However, the existing means cannot guarantee that the tide gauge is stably above the water bottom mud surface, resulting in unstable measurement. On the other hand, due to the change of tide level, the water flow has an impact and disturbance effect on the tide gauge, and in addition, there are often rocks and stones produced in the process of channel dredging construction on the water bottom mud surface, so that the tide gauge will also be subjected to impact, and is easy to be damaged. Therefore, it is necessary to develop and design a tide observation auxiliary equipment to enable the tide gauge to stably work on the water bottom and provide necessary protection for the tide gauge.

[0029] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 It can be seen that:

[0030] The stabilizing support assembly 1 comprises a threaded sleeve 1-2 fixedly installed on the side support 14, and a threaded rod 1-1 is arranged in the threaded sleeve 1-2. A support base 1-3 is installed below the side support 14, and two left and right support blocks 1-6 with pointed ends are arranged at the lower part of the support base 1-3. The upper part of the support block 1-6 is connected with the support base 1-3 through an outer side support arm 1-4 and a connecting arm 1-7, and the middle part of the support block 1-6 is connected with the support base 1-3 through an inner side support arm 1-5.

[0031] Specifically, the upper end of the connecting arm 1-7 is hingedly connected with the outer end of the outer side support arm 1-4, the lower end of the connecting arm 1-7 is hingedly connected with the upper end of the support block 1-6, the upper end of the outer side support arm 1-4 is fixedly installed with a rotating shaft which penetrates the support base 1-3, a swing arm is fixedly installed at the middle part of the rotating shaft, the lower end of the swing arm is hingedly connected with the outer end of the inner arm 1-8, the inner end of the inner arm 1-8 is hingedly connected with the side of the lifting block 1-9, the middle part of the inner side support arm 1-5 is hingedly connected with the bottom of the support base 1-3, the upper end of the inner side support arm 1-5 is fixedly connected with the side wall of the support base 1-3, and the lower end of the inner side support arm 1-5 is hingedly connected with the upper end of the support block 1-6.
