Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hydrological detection technology, and in particular to a removable multi-element integrated observation platform. Background Technology

[0002] Hydrological monitoring is used by hydrological departments to monitor hydrological parameters of rivers, lakes, reservoirs, canals, groundwater, and the terrestrial environment in real time. When monitoring hydrological parameters on flowing water surfaces, technicians sometimes need to go to deep water areas to inspect the equipment in order to obtain accurate information. However, existing hydrological observation floating rafts have complex structures, unreasonable designs, poor stability against wind and waves, are prone to capsizing, have insufficient safety of the float structure, pose a risk of water seepage, require manual intervention for leveling, have low automation, and are inconvenient for observation and sampling. In situations with rapid currents or unstable river conditions, the detection components may not be accurate enough, posing a significant threat to the lives of monitoring personnel. Furthermore, most observation rafts can only be used on flowing water surfaces and are not suitable for real-time monitoring of hydrological parameters in terrestrial environments. They are also limited in function, not suitable for mobility, and lack the ability to integrate multi-element observations.

[0003] The existing patent, publication number CN217416058U, entitled "Hydrological Observation Floating Raft," although it has good overall load-bearing capacity, high stability, and is easy to use, and has been greatly improved, has relatively limited functionality and is not suitable for real-time monitoring of hydrological parameters in terrestrial environments, and still has considerable room for improvement.

[0004] Therefore, it is urgent for those skilled in the art to make improvements and develop a simple, feature-rich, widely applicable, wind and wave resistant, stable, safe and reliable removable multi-element integrated observation platform to meet the needs of hydrological observation of flowing water surfaces and land environments. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a removable multi-element integrated observation platform that is simple in structure, rich in functions, wide in application range, movable, has good wind and wave stability, and is safe and reliable.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A removable multi-element integrated observation platform is disclosed, comprising multiple detachable modules, including: a circular observation platform body, a surrounding float system, an automatic leveling device, a wave mitigation device, and a multi-element observation instrument group. The circular observation platform body is a double-layered composite structure, including detachable and reconfigurable upper and lower frame structures and a fence. The fence is detachably installed on the upper part of the circular observation platform body. The float system includes a sealed chamber and a water-fillable leveling chamber, which are arranged in a ring inside the circular observation platform body. The wave dissipation device includes a wave-damping plate circumferentially arranged on the outside of the circular observation platform body. The wave-damping plate is a detachable, dog-tooth-type energy dissipation plate. The water inlet of the leveling chamber is 10-20cm higher than the wave-damping plate. The water inlet of the leveling chamber is equipped with a solenoid valve. The automatic leveling device includes a water level sensor, a level, a water level gauge, and a controller. The water level sensor, level, and water level gauge are electrically connected to the controller. The automatic leveling device controls the solenoid valve through the linkage of the water level sensor and the level. The multi-element observation instrument group is integrated and arranged in the central area of ​​the upper part of the circular observation platform body.

[0008] In the above structure, the circular observation platform body includes a frame and a wave-breaking plate. The frame and the wave-breaking plate form a double-layer ring structure. The wave-breaking plate is circumferentially arranged on the outside of the frame. The frame is made of stainless steel, and the wave-breaking plate is made of fiberglass composite material.

[0009] In the above structure, the fence is vertically installed above the frame, and the fence and the circular observation platform body form a closed cavity. The circular observation platform body is equipped with warning lights, warning signs and emergency equipment boxes. The emergency equipment boxes contain multiple life rings and life jackets. The warning lights are solar-powered red strobe lights with a nighttime visibility distance of ≥500 meters.

[0010] In the above structure, there are multiple sealing chambers and leveling chambers. The multiple sealing chambers and leveling chambers are embedded in the frame in a circular array. The multiple sealing chambers and leveling chambers are fixedly connected to the frame. The water inlet of the multiple leveling chambers is equipped with a solenoid valve. The solenoid valve is electrically connected to the controller.

[0011] In the above structure, multiple sealed chambers and leveling chambers are symmetrically arranged.

[0012] In the above structure, the observation instrument group includes at least an automatic evaporator, an evaporating dish, a Stevenson screen, an anemometer bracket, a photovoltaic control cabinet, and a rain gauge. The automatic evaporator, evaporating dish, Stevenson screen, anemometer bracket, and rain gauge are spaced apart and installed at corresponding mounting positions in the central area of ​​the circular observation platform body.

[0013] In the above structure, the water inlet is movably equipped with an anti-clogging filter, and the anti-clogging filter is adjacent to the corresponding solenoid valve.

[0014] In the above structure, the level is a dual-axis level.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0016] This utility model features a circular observation platform with an automatic leveling device for automatic leveling. Water level gauges are installed around the circular platform to monitor draft. Based on water level differences and the level instrument, the platform automatically controls water injection for leveling, while setting draft limits to achieve automatic leveling and reduce human intervention. A ring-shaped wave-damping frame is movably positioned on the outside of the stainless steel frame, effectively mitigating the impact of wind and waves on the platform and enhancing stability. The float structure is optimized, employing a combination of adjustable and enclosed designs to ensure safety. Multiple small-volume floats are used, with water inlets only on some for leveling. Both the water inlets and observation ports are higher than the upper wooden wave-damping board of the raft for easy operation. This utility model has a simple structure, rich functionality, is suitable for amphibious use, is easy to move, and is safe and reliable. Attached Figure Description
