Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of hydraulic structure testing technology, and more specifically, it relates to a seepage detection device for hydraulic structures. Background Technology

[0002] Hydraulic structures, also known as water conservancy structures, function to control and regulate water flow, achieving the goal of mitigating harm and promoting benefits through the management and allocation of surface water and groundwater. Various types of dams, sluices, dikes, and seawalls primarily control river flow, raise water levels, and regulate water volume, while also preventing floods and blocking seawater intrusion. The gates in sluices bear the heavy responsibility of blocking water; due to long-term immersion in water, they are subjected to the impact of water flow and corrosion, making leakage a frequent problem. Visually inspecting gate leaks is not only cumbersome but also lacks accuracy; regular inspections are even more time-consuming and labor-intensive. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides a seepage detection device for hydraulic structures. This device solves the problems mentioned in the background art, such as the gates being susceptible to leakage due to water impact and corrosion, the cumbersome and inaccurate visual inspection of the gates, and the time-consuming and labor-intensive nature of periodic inspections.
