Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ultrasonic anemometer technology, and specifically to an ultrasonic anemometer that is easy to install. Background Technology
[0002] Among the types of outdoor wind speed measuring instruments used by meteorological departments, they are basically divided into mechanical rotary type and ultrasonic type. Compared with traditional measuring instruments, ultrasonic wind speed sensors have the advantages of high reliability, high measurement accuracy, light weight, no moving parts, and robust durability. Moreover, they do not require maintenance or on-site calibration and can output wind speed and wind direction simultaneously. They have been widely used in the meteorological field.
[0003] The prior art (publication number: CN218766991U) discloses a high-precision ultrasonic anemometer, which solves the technical problem that current methods require a large amount of manpower to pull out the first sliding rod inserted into the ground when measuring different locations or at the end of the measurement. This is time-consuming, labor-intensive, increases worker fatigue, and affects work progress. The instrument includes an anemometer body, with a shaft fixedly installed at the center of the bottom end. A bushing is fitted around the shaft, and mounting blocks fix the middle of both sides of the bushing to fixed frames. Support plates are fixedly installed at the bottom ends of the two fixed frames. A lead screw is rotatably connected inside each of the two fixed frames. Each lead screw has a ground insertion assembly on its surface, and each ground insertion assembly includes a moving plate, a cross plate, and two insertion rods. This invention saves time and labor, reduces worker fatigue, and improves work progress.
[0004] However, existing technologies use motors to fix ultrasonic anemometers, which increases the size of the anemometer, reduces its portability, and makes it unsuitable for outdoor environments. In addition, prolonged exposure of the motor to the natural environment can easily cause short circuits in the motor's internal circuitry, thus affecting the normal installation of the ultrasonic anemometer. To address these issues, we propose an easy-to-install ultrasonic anemometer. Utility Model Content
[0005] The present invention aims to provide an easy-to-install ultrasonic anemometer to solve the problem that the existing technology uses a motor to fix the ultrasonic anemometer, which increases the size of the ultrasonic anemometer, reduces its portability, and makes it unsuitable for outdoor environments.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: an easy-to-install ultrasonic anemometer, comprising a detection body, a mounting column at the lower end of the detection body, a support plate at the lower end of the mounting column, an annular mounting cavity inside the mounting column, a fixing component inside the mounting cavity, the fixing component comprising a rotating ring, an adjusting block, a mounting ring, a spring, and several ground nails, the mounting ring being disposed within the mounting cavity, the support plate having an annularly opened several through slots, several ground nails being annularly disposed at the lower end of the mounting ring, and each ground nail being able to penetrate through the through slot, the spring being disposed between the support plate and the mounting ring, the rotating ring being disposed at the upper end of the mounting ring, a limiting groove being opened on the outer wall of the mounting column, the adjusting block being disposed on the outer wall of the rotating ring, and the adjusting block being located within the limiting groove, and a buffer component being disposed between the mounting column and the mounting cavity.
[0007] The beneficial effects of this solution are as follows: The main body of the detector is used to measure wind speed. The mounting column has an installation cavity, and the fixing components inside the installation cavity make the entire installation process simpler. By setting several ground nails at the lower end of the mounting ring, the ground nails can penetrate the through groove of the support plate and insert into the ground, ensuring that the wind speed detector can be firmly fixed in different terrains and preventing the detector from tipping over due to wind or external impact. The user only needs to step on the adjusting block to push the mounting ring into the ground to fix the ultrasonic wind speed detector. Then, by rotating the rotating ring, the adjusting block is pushed into the limiting groove, which fixes the adjusting block and prevents the mounting ring from moving. The spring is used to reset the mounting ring and also allows the adjusting block to abut against the inner wall of the limiting groove, thereby increasing the support effect of the ground nails and improving the stability of the ultrasonic wind speed detector.
[0008] Preferably, as an improvement, the upper end of the rotating ring is provided with a sealing cover, which is used to cover the limiting groove.
[0009] The beneficial effects are as follows: When the ground nail is inserted into the ground, in order to prevent debris from entering the installation cavity, a sealing cover is set at the upper end of the rotating ring to block the limiting groove. While preventing debris from entering the installation cavity, it can also reduce the sealing of the installation column in windy weather and improve the stability of the ultrasonic anemometer.
[0010] Preferably, as an improvement, the buffer assembly includes a sealing ring and several vent holes. The sealing ring is located at the upper end of the sealing cover and abuts against the inner wall of the mounting cavity. The several vent holes are evenly and continuously opened at the upper end of the mounting post and are connected to the mounting cavity.
[0011] The beneficial effects are as follows: When the ultrasonic anemometer is retrieved, the user needs to push the adjusting block out of the limiting groove, so that the mounting ring is reset under the action of the spring. However, the spring reset will generate a large impact force, which will be transmitted to the detection body through the mounting post, thereby damaging the detection body. In this solution, a sealing ring is set at the upper end of the sealing cover, so that a cavity is formed between the mounting cavity and the sealing ring. Then, the cavity is slowly vented through the exhaust hole, thereby reducing the impact force generated when the spring resets and increasing the service life of the detection body.
[0012] Preferably, as an improvement, each exhaust port has a filter screen at the end exposed on the mounting post.
[0013] The beneficial effects are: the filter screen prevents debris from entering the mounting cavity through the vent, thus avoiding blockage of the vent and affecting the normal reset of the spring.
[0014] Preferably, as an improvement, the end of the mounting column near the detection body is rounded.
[0015] The beneficial effect is that rounding the mounting column can prevent debris from adhering to the vicinity of the vent hole, further preventing the vent hole from becoming blocked.
[0016] Preferably, as an improvement, each through groove is provided with a rubber pad, the rubber pad has a cross-shaped opening in the middle, and each ground nail can pass through the rubber pad.
[0017] The beneficial effects are: when the ground nail is retracted into the installation cavity, the cross-shaped opening in the middle of the rubber pad can scrape off the soil attached to the outer wall of the ground nail, thereby reducing the weight of the ultrasonic anemometer after recovery and making it easier to transport.
[0018] Preferably, as an improvement, the lower end of the support plate is provided with several anti-slip teeth.
[0019] The beneficial effects are: the anti-slip teeth are used to increase the friction between the support plate and the ground, and prevent the support plate from rotating relative to the ground. Attached Figure Description

[0024] Example
[0025] The basic implementation examples are as follows: Figure 1-2 As shown, Figure 1 The ultrasonic anemometer shown is easy to install and includes a detection body 1. A mounting column 2 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the detection body 1. A support plate 3 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the mounting column 2. Several anti-slip teeth are evenly fixedly installed at the lower end of the support plate 3. The anti-slip teeth are used to increase the friction between the support plate 3 and the ground, preventing the support plate 3 from rotating relative to the ground. Figure 2 The mounting post 2 shown has a ring-shaped mounting cavity 4 inside. The mounting cavity 4 contains a fixing assembly, which includes a rotating ring 5, an adjusting block 6, a mounting ring 7, a spring 8, and several ground nails 9. The mounting ring 7 is slidably mounted inside the mounting cavity 4. The lower end of the support plate 3 has a ring-shaped through-hole 10. In this embodiment, there are six through-holes 10. Several ground nails 9 are ring-shaped and fixedly mounted on the lower end of the mounting ring 7. In this embodiment, there are six ground nails 9, and each ground nail 9 can penetrate through the corresponding through-hole 10. A rubber pad is fixedly installed on the inner wall of each through-hole 10. A cross-shaped opening is formed in the center of the rubber pad, and each ground nail 9 can penetrate through the rubber pad. The cross-shaped opening of the part can scrape off the soil attached to the outer wall of the ground nail 9, thereby reducing the weight of the recovered ultrasonic anemometer and facilitating its transportation. The spring 8 is fixedly installed between the support plate 3 and the mounting ring 7. The upper end of the mounting ring 7 is provided with a concave groove. The lower end of the rotating ring 5 is fixedly installed with a T-shaped slider. The T-shaped slider matches the concave groove and rotates through the slider to be installed in the groove at the upper end of the mounting ring 7. The outer wall of the mounting column 2 is provided with a limiting groove 11. The limiting groove 11 is L-shaped. The adjusting block 6 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the rotating ring 5 and slides in the limiting groove 11. A buffer assembly is provided between the mounting column 2 and the mounting cavity 4.
[0026] A sealing cover 12 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the rotating ring 5. The sealing cover 12 is used to cover the limiting groove 11. The buffer assembly includes a sealing ring 13 and several vent holes 14. The sealing ring 13 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the sealing cover 12 and abuts against the inner wall of the mounting cavity 4. Several vent holes 14 are evenly opened through the upper end of the mounting post 2 and are connected to the mounting cavity 4. The upper end of the mounting post 2 is rounded. Each vent hole 14 is provided with a filter screen at the end exposed on the mounting post 2. The filter screen is used to prevent debris from entering the mounting cavity 4 through the vent hole 14 and avoid clogging the vent hole 14, which would affect the normal reset of the spring 8.
[0027] The specific implementation process is as follows:
[0028] When a user needs to fix the ultrasonic anemometer to the ground, first determine the placement position of the ultrasonic anemometer, place the support plate 3 on the ground, and then simply step on the adjusting block 6 to compress the spring 8. At the same time, the mounting ring 7 pushes the ground nail 9 into the ground, thus fixing the ultrasonic anemometer. Then, by rotating the rotating ring 5, the adjusting block 6 is pushed into the corner of the limiting groove 11, which fixes the adjusting block 6 and prevents the mounting ring 7 from moving. During the descent of the mounting ring 7, the sealing cover 12 will block the limiting groove 11, thus preventing... The absence of a limiting groove 11 increases the wind resistance of the ultrasonic anemometer in windy weather, causing it to shake or even tip over. To unlock the ultrasonic anemometer, simply move the adjusting block 6 out of the corner of the limiting groove 11, and the mounting ring 7 will reset under the action of the spring 8, causing the ground nail 9 to retract into the mounting cavity 4. At the same time, since the sealing ring 13 is set at the upper end of the sealing cover 12, a cavity is formed between the mounting cavity 4 and the sealing ring 13. The cavity is then slowly vented through the exhaust hole 14, thereby reducing the impact force generated when the spring 8 resets and increasing the service life of the detection body 1.
