Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical equipment, specifically to a water flow velocity detection device for water conservancy projects. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the significance of water conservancy project inspection is mainly reflected in the following aspects: ensuring construction quality and safety, improving project efficiency, guaranteeing safe operation of the project, and promoting technological progress. Water conservancy project inspection devices mainly include the following categories: measuring tools and equipment, metal structure inspection equipment, and underwater structure inspection equipment. These include devices used to measure various parameters of water conservancy projects, such as elevation difference, azimuth, vertical angle, distance, and water flow velocity. Radar flow meters are flow velocity measurement devices used in the water conservancy industry. They can achieve real-time monitoring and data acquisition of water flow velocity in rivers, providing important support for water conservancy management and decision-making. Furthermore, radar flow meters have a non-contact measurement method and are unaffected by sewage corrosion and sediment, making them suitable for fields such as water conservancy, hydrology, and environmental pollution monitoring. When detecting river flow velocity, the radar flow meter needs to be mounted on a bracket, facing the river for detection. Existing radar flow meter brackets are of an integral design, which cannot be adjusted in height or distance between the radar flow meter and the riverbank as needed, resulting in poor adaptability.
