[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. 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.

[0021] Please see Figure 1-6 This utility model provides a flow observation weir, including a weir plate 9, a battery box 5 on the side of the weir plate 9, a switch 3 and an indicator light 4 on the bottom side of the battery box 5, a scale and a slide rail 6 on the side of the weir plate 9, a pointer fixing box 8 on the outside of the scale and slide rail 6, and a water level pointer 7 fixedly connected to the side of the pointer fixing box 8.

[0022] In summary, by adding fixing rivets 1 to the bottom of the weir plate 9, the number of fixing rivets 1 is determined according to the specifications of the weir plate 9. In this design, the bottom distance of the triangular weir is set to 20cm, and 3 fixing rivets are configured; the 30cm high rectangular weir is equipped with 3 fixing rivets. At the same time, the wire and fixing box 2 are responsible for transmitting the water head height measured on the scale to the temperature probe and the main board 10. The switch 3, indicator light 4, and battery box 5 can be rechargeable batteries or dry batteries. The water level pointer 7 is used in conjunction with the scale and slide rail 6 to measure the water level height. The pointer fixing box 8 fixes the water level pointer 7 to the water level fixing box. The built-in distance measuring device outputs the measured height to the temperature probe and the main board 10. The obtained water head height is converted into flow rate through the triangular weir (rectangular weir) flow calculation formula and transmitted to the mobile phone via Bluetooth. Through the corresponding receiving software on the mobile phone, the flow rate and water temperature can be obtained in real time. The weir plate 9 is installed at the measured position, the switch 3 is turned on, and Bluetooth is connected. Once the water flow stabilizes, move the water level pointer 7. The flow rate and water temperature can be obtained on the mobile phone. The water level pointer 7 is installed on the weir plate 9, which can be read manually for manual verification. This solves the problem that existing triangular weirs and rectangular weirs are commonly used open channel flow meters and are widely used in various water conservancy projects, geological and geological disaster investigations. They have the characteristics of high accuracy, simple maintenance and good anti-clogging performance. However, when used in soil rivers, streams and other scenarios, the weir plate 9 is difficult to fix and the bottom leakage is serious, which can easily affect the measurement accuracy. The existing weir plate 9 can only measure the head height and cannot reflect the flow rate in a timely and rapid manner.

[0023] The weir plate 9 is fixedly connected to the detection station by three fixing rivets 1. Additional fixing rivets 1 are added to the bottom of the weir plate 9, with the number of rivets 1 determined according to the specifications of the weir plate 9. In this design, the bottom distance of the triangular weir is 20cm, so three fixing rivets 1 are used; the rectangular weir with a distance of 30cm is also equipped with three fixing rivets 1. A wire and a fixing box 2 are used to transmit the water head height obtained from the scale to the temperature probe and the main board 10. A switch 3, an indicator light 4, and a battery box 5 are included; these can be rechargeable or dry cell batteries. The water level pointer 7 works in conjunction with the scale and slide rail 6 to measure the water level height. The switch 3 is connected to the scale and slide rail 6 via the wire and fixing box 2.

[0024] The inner side of the scale and slide rail 6 is inlaid with three ball bearings. The weir plate 9 is available in two shapes: triangular and rectangular. The pointer fixing box 8 fixes the water level pointer 7 to the water level fixing box. It has a built-in ranging device that outputs the measured height to the temperature probe and main board 10. The measured water head height is converted into the flow rate using the flow rate calculation formula of the triangular weir (rectangular weir) and transmitted to the mobile phone via Bluetooth. The corresponding receiving software on the mobile phone can realize the real-time acquisition of flow rate and water temperature. The weir plate 9 is installed at the measured position, the switch 3 is turned on, Bluetooth is connected, and after the water flow stabilizes, the water level pointer 7 is moved. The mobile phone can then obtain the flow rate and water temperature. The water level pointer 7 is installed on the weir plate 9, which can be manually read and verified. The outer top of the weir plate 9 is equipped with a temperature probe and main board 10, which are electrically connected to the switch 3.

[0025] In practical use, firstly, to solve the problem of the difficulty in fixing the weir plate 9 in soil, sandy river channels, natural streams and other scenarios for flow measurement and to achieve rapid acquisition of flow and water temperature, the design is as follows: A fixing rivet 1 is added to the bottom of the weir plate 9. The number of fixing rivets 1 is determined according to the specifications of the weir plate 9. In this design, the bottom distance of the triangular weir is 20cm, so 3 fixing rivets 1 are set; the 30cm rectangular weir is also equipped with 3 fixing rivets 1. A wire and fixing box 2 are provided. The wire transmits the water head height obtained from the scale to the temperature probe and main board 10. A switch 3, indicator light 4, and battery box 5 (which can be for rechargeable or dry cell batteries) are also provided. The water level pointer 7 is connected to the scale and slide rail 6. Used in conjunction with a pointer fixing box 8, this device measures water level height. The pointer 7 is fixed to the water level fixing box and has a built-in ranging device. The measured height is output to the temperature probe and the main board 10. The measured water head height is converted into flow rate using the flow rate calculation formula of the triangular weir (rectangular weir) and transmitted to the mobile phone via Bluetooth. The corresponding receiving software on the mobile phone enables real-time acquisition of flow rate and water temperature. The weir plate 9 is installed at the measurement position, the switch 3 is turned on, Bluetooth is connected, and after the water flow stabilizes, the water level pointer 7 is moved. The mobile phone can then acquire the flow rate and water temperature. The water level pointer 7 is installed on the weir plate 9, which can be manually read and verified.
