[0026] 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.

[0027] Please see Figures 1-7An auxiliary device for online monitoring of rainfall on hydropower station slopes includes a support base 1, a rain gauge 2, a control box 3, and a solar panel 4. An adjusting rod 5 is installed inside the support base 1. The rain gauge 2 is installed on the top of the adjusting rod 5. The control box 3 and the solar panel 4 are respectively installed on the front and rear ends of the top of the adjusting rod 5.

[0028] The support base 1 has several storage slots on its side wall along its circumference, and the bottom of each storage slot is fixedly nested with a stop arc strip. The bottom of the adjusting rod 5 is equipped with several extension support plates 6 arranged along its circumference, and the extension support plates 6 can be fitted into the top of the storage slots in a one-to-one manner.

[0029] Furthermore, each of the extended support plates 6 has a movable support plate 7 mounted on its end away from the adjusting rod 5 via a pin hinge. The movable support plates 7 can be snapped into the storage slots one-to-one. The bottom surfaces of the movable support plates 7 are coplanar with the bottom surface of the support base 1 and are all provided with external threads. The outer side of the bottom of the support base 1 is fitted with a first internal thread sleeve 8 that can synchronously engage with the external threads at the bottom of the movable support plates 7.

[0030] Handles are fixed to the bottom surfaces of several movable support plates 7 and the surface of the first internal threaded sleeve 8. The position of the handle on the surface of the movable support plate 7 can serve as the maximum limit of the meshing stroke of the first internal threaded sleeve 8 on the bottom of the movable support plate 7, thereby avoiding over-movement.

[0031] A central sleeve 14 is fixedly sleeved on the inner side of the middle part of the support base 1. The central sleeve 14 can be snapped into the adjusting rod 5. A mounting base is fixed at the bottom of the support base 1. Mounting holes are opened in the corner structures on both sides of the mounting base.

[0032] In use, the mounting base at the bottom of the support 1 is fixed to the ground with screws to secure the entire device. Considering the convenience of maintenance for the equipment associated with the adjusting rod 5, several movable support plates 7 and related structures are set up for lifting and adjustment, as detailed below:

[0033] Each of the movable support plates 7, the extended support plates 6, and the storage slot is configured in three parts. Tightening the first internal threaded sleeve 8 causes it to spirally separate from the bottom of the three movable support plates 7. Then, pulling the handles of the three movable support plates 7 causes them to tilt away from the support base 1. Subsequently, pulling the three movable support plates 7 causes them to respectively drive the three extended support plates 6, the adjusting rod 5, and the related structures mounted on the top of the adjusting rod 5 to move downwards. Simultaneously, the central sleeve 14 engages with the adjusting rod 5 for guidance until the three movable support plates... The bottom of the movable support plate 7 contacts the ground, thereby significantly reducing the height of the rain gauge 2, control box 3, and solar panel 4, making it easier for maintenance personnel to carry out maintenance. After maintenance is completed, the three movable support plates 7 are pushed back. The three movable support plates 7 are still pushed in an inclined manner to gradually reset the three extension support plates 6, the adjusting rod 5, and the related structures installed on the top of the adjusting rod 5. After the adjusting rod 5 reaches its highest point, the three movable support plates 7 are assembled into the three storage slots in sequence for initial positioning. Then, the first internal threaded sleeve 8 is screwed into the bottom of the three movable support plates 7 for further positioning.

[0034] Please see Figures 1-8 Each of the movable support plates 7 has a T-slot on its top, and an inner threaded sleeve plate 11 is fixedly nested inside both sides of the T-slot. The two ends of the pin are respectively engaged inside the T-slot. The two inner threaded sleeve plates 11 inside the T-slot are threadedly connected with a second limiting screw 12, and one end of the second limiting screw 12 can contact the pin engaged inside the T-slot and limit the pin.

[0035] In use, for short-term monitoring needs at multiple pilot locations, the first internal threaded sleeve 8 can be screwed off to spirally separate the first internal threaded sleeve 8 from the bottom of the three movable support plates 7. Then, the handles of the three movable support plates 7 are pulled to move the three movable support plates 7 away from the support base 1 with their bottoms tilted. Subsequently, the three movable support plates 7 are pulled to drive the three extension support plates 6, the adjusting rod 5, and the related structures mounted on the top of the adjusting rod 5 to move downwards. At the same time, the central sleeve 14 engages with the adjusting rod 5 for guidance until the bottom of the three movable support plates 7 contacts the ground. In this way, the three movable support plates 7 expand the support range outside the support base 1, thus fully stabilizing the overall device. Subsequently, there is no need to connect the mounting base at the bottom of the support base 1 to the ground. The triangular bracket formed by the support base 1 and the three movable support plates 7 can meet the support needs of the devices mounted on the top of the adjusting rod 5, and the overall device is flexible to move.

[0036] Please see Figures 1-8Each of the several storage slots has a sliding groove 13 on both sides of its sidewalls. Each of the several movable support plates 7 has an auxiliary shaft 15 fixed on both sides of its top. The auxiliary shaft 15 can be movably sleeved inside the corresponding sliding groove 13. Under the guidance of the sleeve of its corresponding auxiliary shaft 15 and the sliding groove 13, the movable support plate 7 can tilt and slide within the corresponding storage slot. The top of the support base 1 has a threaded hole. The top and bottom surfaces of the adjusting rod 5 have external threads for assembly. An auxiliary positioning device is sleeved on the bottom outer side of the adjusting rod 5. The auxiliary positioning device includes a second internal threaded sleeve 9 and a first limiting screw 10. The second internal threaded sleeve 9 is engaged with the external thread at the bottom of the adjusting rod 5. The second internal threaded sleeve 9 has a strip groove aligned with the threaded hole. One end of the first limiting screw 10 can pass through the strip groove and be screwed into the threaded hole.

[0037] In use, considering the wind resistance of the entire device in windy conditions, the second internal threaded sleeve 9 is locked with the assembly external thread at the bottom of the adjusting rod 5. Then, the second internal threaded sleeve 9 is assembled and connected to the support base 1 using the first limiting screw 10. After completion, multiple second limiting screws 12 are removed. Then, the first internal threaded sleeve 8 is turned to separate the first internal threaded sleeve 8 from the bottom of the three movable support plates 7. Then, the handles of the three movable support plates 7 are pulled to move the three movable support plates 7 away from the support base 1 with their bottoms tilted. Then, the three movable support plates 7 are pulled to move under the fitting of their respective auxiliary shafts 15 and slide grooves 13 until the bottom of the three movable support plates 7 contacts the ground. Then, using the handles at the bottom of the three movable support plates 7 as the limiting structure, long screws are fitted with the handles and then inserted into the ground, thereby fully improving the pressure resistance of the entire device.
