Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dam monitoring technology, specifically a dam safety monitoring device with moisture-proof function. Background Technology

[0002] A dam is a water-retaining structure that blocks the flow of water in rivers and canals to raise the water level or regulate the flow. It can form a reservoir, raising the water level, regulating runoff, and concentrating water head for purposes such as flood control, water supply, irrigation, hydroelectric power generation, and improving navigation. Dams can be broadly classified into concrete dams and earth-rock dams. The type of dam is selected based on a comprehensive comparison of factors such as the natural conditions of the dam site, building materials, construction area, diversion, construction period, and cost. To ensure dam safety, dam safety monitoring devices are typically used for monitoring.

Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0020] Example: Please refer to Figures 1-3 This utility model provides a dam safety monitoring device with moisture-proof function, and the technical solution is as follows:

[0021] A dam safety monitoring device with moisture-proof function includes a base 1, a support column 2 fixedly installed on the upper end of the base 1, a monitoring box 3 fixedly installed on the upper end of the support column 2, a rainproof plate 4 fixedly installed on the upper end of the monitoring box 3, a lightning rod 5 fixedly installed on the upper end of the rainproof plate 4, an mounting plate 6 fixedly installed on one side of the monitoring box 3, a monitoring component 7 installed on the mounting plate 6, a sealing partition 8 fixedly installed inside the monitoring box 3, a moisture-proof component installed inside the monitoring box 3 above the sealing partition 8, and a vent hole 9 opened on one side wall of the monitoring box 3.

[0022] In a preferred embodiment, the monitoring component 7 includes a rain sensor disposed above the mounting plate 6 and a liquid level sensor, laser scanner, and camera assembly disposed below the mounting plate 6. The number and type of the monitoring component 7 can be set as needed during specific use. In this embodiment, monitoring components such as a rain sensor, liquid level sensor, laser scanner, and camera are provided.

[0023] In a preferred embodiment, the moisture-proof component includes a first adsorption frame 10 and a second adsorption frame 11 disposed above the sealing partition 8. The first adsorption frame 10 contains an absorbent sponge 12, and the second adsorption frame 11 is filled with moisture-absorbing particles 13. A filter screen 14 is disposed at one end of the sealing partition 8 near the vent hole 9. A through hole 15 communicating with the internal cavity of the monitoring box 3 is provided on the sealing partition 8. A compression plate 16 is slidably disposed at the upper end of the first adsorption frame 10. The upper end of the compression plate 16 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of an electric telescopic rod 17. The electric telescopic rod 17 penetrates the top side wall of the monitoring box 3 and is fixedly disposed below the rainproof plate 4. A drainage trough 18 is disposed on the sealing partition 8 at the bottom end of the first adsorption frame 10. The drainage trough 18 is inclined, and one end of the drainage trough 18 is connected to a drainage port on the side wall of the monitoring box 3. A sealing plug 19 is provided at the drainage port. A hot air blower 20 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the sealing partition 8. The output end of the hot air blower 20 blows towards the bottom of the second adsorption frame 11. The input end of the hot air blower 20 is connected to the air outside the monitoring box 3 through a pipe. Both the first adsorption frame 10 and the second adsorption frame 11 are provided with penetration holes 23, and the penetration hole 23 on the first adsorption frame 10 is located at the upper end.

[0024] In practical use, humid air from the outside enters the monitoring box 3 through the vent 9, and then passes through the filter 14, the absorbent sponge 12, and the moisture-absorbing particles 13 in sequence. The treated air then enters the internal cavity of the monitoring box 3 through the through hole 15. The filter 14 can filter out dust particles in the outside air, the absorbent sponge 12 can initially absorb the moisture in the outside air, and then the moisture-absorbing particles 13 are used to dry the air again. The hot air blower 20 is turned on periodically to dry the moisture-absorbing particles 13, so that the moisture-absorbing particles 13 can be reused. The electric telescopic rod 17 can drive the squeezing plate 16 to squeeze the absorbent sponge 12, which can squeeze out the water in the absorbent sponge 12. The bottom end of the first adsorption frame 10 is connected to the drain trough 18, and the through hole 23 is located at the top. When the water in the absorbent sponge 12 is squeezed out, it can only be discharged through the drain trough 18.

[0025] In a preferred embodiment, a solenoid valve 21 is provided at the through hole 15, a solar panel 22 is provided on the rainproof plate 4, and a controller is provided inside the monitoring box 3.

[0026] The working principle of this utility model:

[0027] During normal use, solar panels 22 absorb solar energy and convert it into electrical energy for storage, which then powers the equipment. Monitoring components 7 monitor the dam's condition, and a wireless transmission module can be set up to transmit the monitoring data to the monitoring center. Through holes 15 and vents 9 connect the monitoring box 3 to the outside air, allowing for heat dissipation inside the monitoring box 3. When outside air enters the monitoring box 3, it is filtered and adsorbed by a filter screen 14, a water-absorbing sponge 12, and moisture-absorbing particles 13 to ensure the dryness of the monitoring box 3. Depending on the humidity of the external environment of the dam, the controller can periodically turn on the hot air. When the hot air blower 20 is turned on, the solenoid valve 21 is closed. The hot air blown out by the hot air blower 20 blows towards the moisture-absorbing particles 13, and the moisture in the moisture-absorbing particles 13 evaporates. The high-temperature gas is discharged through the water-absorbing sponge 12 and the filter screen 14, which allows the moisture-absorbing particles 13 to be reused. Moreover, the high-temperature gas can dry the water-absorbing sponge 12. Then, the electric telescopic rod 17 is turned on, and the electric telescopic rod 17 drives the squeezing plate 16 to press down on the water-absorbing sponge 12, which can squeeze out the water in the water-absorbing sponge 12. Then, the hot air blown out by the hot air blower 20 is used for drying, which makes the water-absorbing sponge 12 more effective.
