Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of monitoring device technology, specifically a surface water monitoring device with early warning function. Background Technology
[0002] Surface water level monitoring refers to the process of real-time monitoring and recording of the water level of surface water bodies (such as rivers, lakes, and reservoirs). Water level monitoring is crucial as it helps to understand changes in surface water levels, ensuring appropriate water storage and safe flood control. Traditional surface water level monitoring methods often involve setting up water meters on the shore and visually confirming the surface water level, which is labor-intensive. To save manpower and better monitor surface water levels, a surface water monitoring device with early warning function is proposed.
[0003] For example, the surface water monitoring device with early warning function disclosed in the authorization announcement number CN216524264U includes a monitoring box. The monitoring box is provided with a drive chamber, a water intake chamber and a control chamber. The water intake chamber and the control chamber are located on top of the drive chamber. The drive chamber is provided with a telescopic mechanism. An L-shaped fixing plate is connected to the end of the telescopic mechanism away from the monitoring box. A water level monitoring mechanism is provided at the bottom of the L-shaped fixing plate. The water intake chamber is provided with a water intake component. The control chamber is provided with a battery, a controller and a wireless signal transceiver.
[0004] Although it can detect the distance between the ultrasonic sensor and the tablet, thereby obtaining the surface water level, and transmit the surface water level information to the remote control terminal in real time through a wireless transceiver, it facilitates surface water level monitoring. When the surface water level reaches the warning value, it controls the alarm to sound an alarm, which can remind the monitoring personnel.
[0005] However, the existing monitoring devices do not solve the problems of being inconvenient for linking and early warning monitoring of surface water levels and tracking solar activity for photovoltaic power generation, nor do they provide buffer protection for the monitoring devices or adapt them to different operating environments, thus affecting the safety and flexibility of use. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a surface water monitoring device with an early warning function, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, which are not convenient for monitoring devices to perform linkage signal early warning monitoring of surface water level and to track the movement of the sun for photovoltaic power generation, which are not conducive to buffering and protecting the monitoring device and adapting the monitoring equipment to different usage environments, thus affecting the safety and flexibility of use.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a surface water monitoring device with early warning function, comprising a monitoring box and an integrated frame. The integrated frame is symmetrically installed on the side wall of the monitoring box. A battery is installed on the top of the monitoring box. A support column is installed on the top of the monitoring box on one side of the battery. A placement frame is installed at the bottom of the monitoring box. A logic processor is installed inside the monitoring box. A wireless receiving module is installed inside the monitoring box on one side of the logic processor, and the logic processor is connected to the wireless receiving module. A linkage rod is installed inside the placement frame. A movable shaft is installed on the side wall of the linkage rod, and the linkage rod is movably connected to the placement frame through the movable shaft. A float is movably installed at the bottom of the linkage rod. A relay switch is installed on the top of the placement frame, and the relay switch is connected to the logic processor.
[0008] Preferably, a support seat is movably installed at the top of the support column, a second motor is installed on the side wall of the support column, an arc-shaped rack is installed at the bottom of the support seat, a second gear is installed at the output end of the second motor, and the second gear meshes with the arc-shaped rack.
[0009] Preferably, a photovoltaic panel is provided on one side of the support base, and a hinge shaft is provided on the side of the photovoltaic panel near the support base, and the photovoltaic panel is movably connected to the support base through the hinge shaft.
[0010] Preferably, a drive box is movably installed inside the support base, and a straight rack is slidably arranged inside the drive box, and the straight rack is movably connected to the photovoltaic panel.
[0011] Preferably, a first motor is installed on the outer wall of the drive box, and a first gear is movably installed inside the drive box on one side of the rack, and the first gear meshes with the rack, and the first gear is connected to the output end of the first motor.
[0012] Preferably, each of the integrated frames has symmetrically arranged sliding rods inside, and each sliding rod has two sets of sliders slidably arranged on its surface.
[0013] Preferably, springs are fitted on the surface of the slider rod on one side, and the two ends of the springs are respectively connected to the slider and the integrated frame.
[0014] Preferably, each slider has a linkage arm movably mounted on its side wall, and each integrated frame has a protective plate on its exterior, with the linkage arm movably connected to the protective plate.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the monitoring device not only realizes convenient linkage signal early warning monitoring of surface water level and solar photovoltaic power generation by tracking the movement of the sun, but also facilitates buffer protection of the monitoring device and makes the monitoring equipment adaptable to different usage environments, and improves the safety and flexibility of use.
[0016] The device is installed on the bank of a surface water body. When the water level rises, the surface water causes a float to rise, which in turn causes a linkage rod to rotate around a movable shaft. This causes the linkage rod to contact a relay switch, closing the relay switch. Once the relay switch is closed, the logic processor is powered on, generating an early warning signal that is sent to a wireless receiving module and then to the monitoring center. This completes the early warning monitoring of the surface water level. Sunlight shines on the surface of the photovoltaic panel, which converts solar energy into electrical energy stored in a battery. The battery powers the entire device. When the device is subjected to an external impact, the impact causes a protective plate to move. The protective plate then causes a linkage arm to rotate, which in turn causes a slider to slide on the surface of a sliding rod. The slider then compresses a spring, and the elasticity of the spring counteracts the impact force, thus providing good buffer protection for the monitoring device. This system enables convenient early warning monitoring of surface water levels and facilitates buffer protection for the monitoring device, improving its safety.
[0017] The second motor drives the second gear to rotate, which in turn drives the carrier to rotate laterally via an arc-shaped rack. The carrier then drives the photovoltaic panel to rotate laterally and track the sun's position. The first motor drives the first gear to rotate, which in turn drives the rack to slide inside the drive box. The rack then drives the photovoltaic panel to rotate around the hinge axis, thereby causing the photovoltaic panel to rotate up and down and track the sun's angle. This allows the photovoltaic panel to generate electricity more effectively, eliminating the need for power cords and enabling the monitoring device to adapt to outdoor environments. This convenient method of tracking the sun for photovoltaic power generation facilitates the adaptation of the monitoring equipment to different usage environments and improves its flexibility.

All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0026] Please see Figure 1-6 An embodiment of this utility model provides a surface water monitoring device with an early warning function, comprising a monitoring box 1 and an integrated frame 23. The integrated frame 23 is symmetrically installed on the side wall of the monitoring box 1. A storage battery 5 is installed on the top of the monitoring box 1. A support column 17 is installed on the top of the monitoring box 1 on one side of the storage battery 5. A placement rack 2 is installed at the bottom of the monitoring box 1. A logic processor 6 is installed inside the monitoring box 1. A wireless receiving module 7 is installed inside the monitoring box 1 on one side of the logic processor 6, and the logic processor 6 is connected to the wireless receiving module 7. A linkage rod 9 is installed inside the placement rack 2. A movable shaft 8 is installed on the side wall of the linkage rod 9, and the linkage rod 9 is movably connected to the placement rack 2 through the movable shaft 8. A float ball 3 is movably installed at the bottom of the linkage rod 9. A relay switch 10 is installed on the top of the placement rack 2, and the relay switch 10 is connected to the logic processor 6.
[0027] The device is installed on the bank of a surface water body. When the water level rises, the surface water causes the float 3 to rise, which in turn causes the linkage rod 9 to rotate around the movable shaft 8. This causes the linkage rod 9 to contact the relay switch 10, closing the relay switch 10. After the relay switch 10 closes, the logic processor 6 is powered on, generating an early warning signal which is sent to the wireless receiving module 7 and then transmitted to the monitoring center. This completes the early warning monitoring of the surface water level. Sunlight shines on the surface of the photovoltaic panel 4, which converts solar energy into electrical energy, which is stored in the battery. Inside the device 5, the battery 5 provides power to the entire device. When the device is subjected to an external impact, the external object drives the protective plate 22 to move, the protective plate 22 drives the linkage arm 24 to rotate, the linkage arm 24 drives the slider 26 to slide on the surface of the slide rod 25, and the slider 26 squeezes the spring 14. Under the elastic action of the spring 14, the force is offset, thereby providing good buffer protection for the monitoring device. This enables convenient linkage signal early warning monitoring of the surface water level, facilitates buffer protection for the monitoring device, and improves the safety of use.
[0028] A support seat 16 is movably installed at the top of the support column 17, and a second motor 19 is installed on the side wall of the support column 17. The second motor 19 plays the role of power drive. An arc-shaped rack 18 is installed at the bottom of the support seat 16, and a second gear 20 is installed at the output end of the second motor 19. The second gear 20 meshes with the arc-shaped rack 18.
[0029] A photovoltaic panel 4 is provided on one side of the support base 16. A hinge shaft 11 is provided on the side of the photovoltaic panel 4 near the support base 16. The photovoltaic panel 4 is movably connected to the support base 16 through the hinge shaft 11. A drive box 13 is movably installed inside the support base 16. A straight rack 12 is slidably arranged inside the drive box 13. The straight rack 12 is movably connected to the photovoltaic panel 4.
[0030] A first motor 15 is installed on the outer wall of the drive box 13. The first motor 15 plays the role of power drive. A first gear 21 is movably installed inside the drive box 13 on one side of the rack 12. The first gear 21 meshes with the rack 12 and is connected to the output end of the first motor 15.
[0031] The integrated frame 23 is symmetrically equipped with slide rods 25 inside each slide rod 25. Two sets of sliders 26 are slidably mounted on the surface of each slide rod 25. A spring 14 is fitted on the surface of each slide rod 25 on one side of the slider 26, and the two ends of the spring 14 are respectively connected to the slider 26 and the integrated frame 23.
[0032] All sliders 26 are movably mounted with linkage arms 24, and all integrated frames 23 are provided with protective plates 22 on the outside, and the linkage arms 24 are movably connected to the protective plates 22.
[0033] Turn on the second motor 19, which drives the second gear 20 to rotate. With the second gear 20 meshing with the arc-shaped rack 18 and the support seat 16 and support column 17 moving together, the second gear 20 drives the support seat 16 to rotate laterally via the arc-shaped rack 18. The support seat 16 then drives the photovoltaic panel 4 to rotate laterally and track the position of the sun. At the same time, turn on the first motor 15, which drives the first gear 21 to rotate. With the first gear 21 meshing with the straight rack 12, the first gear 21 drives the straight rack 12 to slide inside the drive box 13. The straight rack 12 then drives the photovoltaic panel 4 to rotate around the hinge shaft 11, thereby causing the photovoltaic panel 4 to rotate up and down and track the angle of the sun. This allows the photovoltaic panel 4 to generate electricity better, so that the monitoring device can be adapted to the field environment without the need for power cords. This enables convenient movement tracking of the sun for photovoltaic power generation, making it easier for the monitoring equipment to adapt to different usage environments and improving the flexibility of use.
[0034] Working principle: The device is installed on the bank of surface water. When the water level rises, the surface water causes the float 3 to rise, which in turn causes the linkage rod 9 to rotate around the movable shaft 8. This causes the linkage rod 9 to contact the relay switch 10, closing the relay switch 10. After the relay switch 10 closes, the logic processor 6 is powered on, generating an early warning signal which is sent to the wireless receiving module 7 and then transmitted to the monitoring center. This completes the early warning monitoring of the surface water level. Sunlight shines on the surface of the photovoltaic panel 4, which converts solar energy into electrical energy and stores it inside the battery 5. The battery 5 provides power to the entire device. When the device is subjected to an external impact, the external object causes the protective plate 22 to move. The protective plate 22 causes the linkage arm 24 to rotate, which in turn causes the slider 26 to slide on the surface of the sliding rod 25. 6. The compression spring 14, under the elastic action of the spring 14, cancels out the force, thus providing good buffer protection for the monitoring device. The second motor 19 drives the second gear 20 to rotate, and the second gear 20 drives the support seat 16 to rotate laterally through the arc rack 18. The support seat 16 drives the photovoltaic panel 4 to rotate laterally and track the position of the sun. The first motor 15 drives the first gear 21 to rotate, and the first gear 21 drives the straight rack 12 to slide inside the drive box 13. The straight rack 12 drives the photovoltaic panel 4 to rotate around the hinge shaft 11, thereby driving the photovoltaic panel 4 to rotate up and down and track the angle of the sun, so that the photovoltaic panel 4 can generate electricity better. Thus, the monitoring device can be adapted to the field environment without pulling power lines. The above is the complete usage of the surface water monitoring device with early warning function.
