AI Technical Summary
Existing water environment monitoring buoys suffer from limited space, making it easy for sensors to be squeezed and unable to contact the surrounding water, resulting in large errors in monitoring results. Furthermore, the sensors are easily damaged by debris adhering to the surrounding water, leading to a short service life.
A structure including a water intake pipe, a water delivery pipe, a water outlet pipe, and a self-priming pump was designed to allow the ambient water to flow in an orderly manner within the buoy. Debris is intercepted by a mesh cover and a rotating motor system, ensuring that all sensors can contact the ambient water and reducing the adhesion of debris.
This reduces the error in monitoring results, improves the accuracy of monitoring results, and extends the service life of the sensors.

[0023] like Figs. 1 to 4 As shown, the water environment monitoring buoy in this embodiment includes a platform 3, a top box 1 at the top of the platform 3, an energy storage system 15 installed inside the top box 1, a water supply pipe 14 passing through the middle of the inner side of the top box 1, multiple sensors 13 installed at the top of the water supply pipe 14, a photovoltaic panel 2 installed on the outer wall of the platform 3, a floating plate 4 fixedly connected to the bottom of the platform 3, a water intake pipe 12 and a water outlet pipe 7 passing through the two sides of the bottom of the floating plate 4 respectively, a mesh cover 5 provided outside the water intake pipe 12, an external gear ring 11 fixedly connected to the top of the mesh cover 5, a spur gear 10 meshing on the outer side of the external gear ring 11, and a rotary motor 9 and a self-priming pump 16 installed inside the platform 3 respectively.
[0024] Specifically, the top box 1 is made of a corrosion-resistant material, which serves to shield the sensor 13 and the energy storage system 15. The energy storage system 15 converts the light energy received by the photovoltaic panel 2 into electrical energy and stores it, and can output the electrical energy for use by the electronic equipment on the buoy. The water delivery pipe 14 is horizontally arranged at the middle of the inner side of the top box 1, so that the environmental water can flow horizontally in the top box 1, which is conducive to the contact of the sensor 13 on the water delivery pipe 14 with the environmental water and monitoring. The water suction pipe 12 serves to suck the environmental water into the water delivery pipe 14. The water outlet pipe 7 serves to avoid the accumulation of the sucked environmental water in the buoy, so that the sucked environmental water can have flowability and be more conducive to real-time updating, thereby facilitating real-time monitoring of the sensor 13. The mesh cover cylinder 5 serves to intercept large-volume debris such as waterweeds and foreign matter in the water body, so as to reduce the probability of pipe blockage in the buoy caused by debris. The spur gear 10 serves to mesh with the external gear ring 11 to rotate, thereby facilitating the rotation of the mesh cover cylinder 5 and the cleaning of the debris adsorbed on the mesh cover cylinder 5. The rotary motor 9 serves to provide power for the rotation of the spur gear 10. The self-suction pump 16 serves to suck the environmental water into the water suction pipe 12 and then discharge it from the water outlet pipe 7, thereby facilitating the contact of all the sensors 13 arranged in the buoy with the environmental water and monitoring.
[0025] Further, the photovoltaic panel 2 is electrically connected with the energy storage system 15, which includes a lithium battery and an energy storage inverter. The rotary motor 9 and the self-suction pump 16 are electrically connected with the energy storage system 15, so that the buoy can operate by itself after being placed in the water body, reducing the dependence on external power supply.
[0026] Further, the inner side of the platform 3 is provided with an embedded groove 17, and the rotary motor 9 is installed at the top of the embedded groove 17. The output end of the rotary motor 9 is fixedly connected with the spur gear 10. The embedded groove 17 serves to limit the movement range of the external gear and the spur gear 10, so that the external gear ring 11 can maintain the meshing relationship with the spur gear 10, thereby ensuring the normal rotation of the mesh cover cylinder 5.
[0027] Further, the external gear ring 11 is rotatably connected with the embedded groove 17, and the mesh cover cylinder 5 is rotatably connected with the embedded groove 17 through the external gear ring 11. The mesh cover cylinder 5 serves to intercept large-volume debris such as waterweeds, and makes it difficult for foreign matter such as plastic to block the water inlet of the water suction pipe 12, thereby reducing the probability of blockage of the water suction pipe 12.
[0028] Further, the mesh cover cylinder 5 is rotatably connected with the floating plate 4 through the external gear ring 11, and a sealing ring 6 is embedded at the joint of the mesh cover cylinder 5 and the floating plate 4, which prevents foreign matters from entering from the joint, and the surface of the mesh cover cylinder 5 is smooth, so that centrifugal force is generated on the surface during rotation to shake off the foreign matters adsorbed on the surface, thereby reducing the probability of foreign matters entering the water suction pipe 12.
[0029] Further, the input end of the self-suction pump 16 is connected with the end of the water conveying pipe 14, the output end of the self-suction pump 16 is connected with the top end of the water outlet pipe 7, and the end of the water suction pipe 12 is connected with one end of the water conveying pipe 14, so that the self-suction pump 16 can be applied to the water body with heavy pollution and many particles, thereby facilitating the expansion of the use range of the monitoring buoy.
[0030] Further, the water suction pipe 12 is connected with the inside of the water outlet pipe 7 through the water conveying pipe 14 and the self-suction pump 16, and the end of the water outlet pipe 7 is sleeved with a flow buffer cover 8, which facilitates the smooth discharge of the water after monitoring, and reduces the fluctuation of the water flow during discharge.
[0031] The use method of the embodiment is as follows: before using the water environment monitoring buoy, the buoy needs to be placed and anchored in the water body to be monitored, then the photovoltaic panel 2 and the energy storage system 15 convert light energy into electric energy to supply the self-suction pump 16 and the rotary motor 9, when the rotary motor 9 starts to rotate, the self-suction pump 16 also starts, at this time, the rotary motor 9 drives the spur gear 10 to rotate, so that the spur gear 10 meshes with the external gear ring 11 to rotate at high speed, so that the external gear ring 11 drives the mesh cover cylinder 5 to rotate outside the water suction pipe 12, when the environmental water passes through the mesh cover cylinder 5 to enter the water suction pipe 12, the large-volume foreign matters in the environmental water are intercepted outside the rotating mesh cover cylinder 5, and the foreign matters adsorbed on the surface of the mesh cover cylinder 5 are shaken off, so that the environmental water in the water body can smoothly enter the water conveying pipe 14 through the water suction pipe 12, and then flow through the multiple sensors 13 on the top of the water conveying pipe 14 in turn, so that the temperature, pH value, dissolved oxygen, conductivity and turbidity of the environmental water can be monitored, then the environmental water is discharged from the water outlet pipe 7 under the action of the self-suction pump 16, so that the use of the buoy is completed.
[0032] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application, although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent replacement of some technical features. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
