Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of sensor technology, and in particular relates to a sensor bracket for a water level monitoring device. Background Technology
[0002] According to the published patent CN203798371U, a sensor bracket includes a base, a base formed on one side of the base for connecting the sensor bracket to other equipment, and a stand formed on the other side of the base for mounting a sensor. Specifically, the sensor bracket further includes a junction box formed on the other side of the base for mounting a terminal block. The terminal block is connected to both the sensor's wires and external wires. The junction box has a cavity for accommodating the sensor's wires and an operating port on one side for connecting the sensor's wires to the terminal block. This invention directly integrates a junction box into the sensor bracket, allowing the sensor's wires to connect directly to the terminal blocks in the junction box. This design provides high safety and prevents breakage between the sensor's wires and external wires, while also facilitating sensor use. However, it still has the following shortcomings:
[0003] The device lacks a protective mechanism. If it is installed on the water level monitoring device, floating objects in the water may adhere to the surface of the sensor, causing the sensor to fail to accurately measure the water level. This could also lead to equipment failure and shorten the sensor's lifespan. Therefore, we propose a sensor bracket for the water level monitoring device. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a sensor bracket for a water level monitoring device. The spring's own reaction force will squeeze the locking block, thereby locking the locking block into the protective shell and fixing the position of the protective shell, thus solving the problem that floating objects in the water may stick to the surface of the sensor.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0028] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0029] Please see Figure 1-6 As shown, this utility model is a sensor bracket for a water level monitoring device, including a fixing plate 101, a slot 102 is provided inside the fixing plate 101, a protective mechanism 2 is provided on the fixing plate 101, and an adjustment mechanism 3 is provided on the fixing plate 101.
[0030] The protective mechanism 2 includes a protective housing 201 that is snapped into the inner wall of the slot 102. A fixing block 202 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing plate 101, and a telescopic rod 203 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing block 202. A locking block 204 is fixedly connected to the side of the telescopic rod 203 away from the fixing block 202. By setting the protective housing 201, floating objects in the water can be prevented from contacting the inside of the device, thereby preventing the device from malfunctioning or even being damaged. A sliding groove 205 is opened inside the locking block 204, and a slider 206 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove 205. A spring 207 is fixedly connected to the side of the locking block 204 near the telescopic rod 203. A fixing frame 208 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing block 202. By setting the spring 207, the locking block 204 is compressed, thereby making the locking block 204... 04 is inserted into the interior of the protective housing 201, thereby fixing the position of the protective housing 201. The fixing frame 208 has a second sliding groove 209 inside. There are two telescopic rods 203. The outer walls of the two telescopic rods 203 contain the same parts. The end of the spring 207 away from the locking block 204 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing block 202. By setting the second sliding groove 209, when the slider 206 moves to the side of the second sliding groove 209 close to the fixing block 202, the slider 206 moves in the first sliding groove 205, and the position of the slider 206 can be locked by the second sliding groove 209, thereby fixing the position of the locking block 204. The telescopic rod 203 is located inside the spring 207. There are two fixing frames 208. The inner wall of the second sliding groove 209 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the slider 206.
[0031] The adjusting mechanism 3 includes a slide groove 301 formed inside the fixed plate 101. Two clamping blocks 302 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the slide groove 301. A bidirectional threaded rod 303 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of each clamping block 302. By rotating the bidirectional threaded rod 303, the clamping blocks 302 can move closer or further apart within the slide groove 301. The outer wall of the bidirectional threaded rod 303 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the fixed plate 101. A worm gear 304 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the bidirectional threaded rod 303. A worm 305 meshes with the outer wall of the worm gear 304. The outer wall of the worm 305 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the fixed plate 101. By manually rotating the worm 305... Rod 305 drives worm gear 304 to rotate. When worm gear 304 rotates, it drives bidirectional threaded rod 303 to rotate, thereby causing clamping blocks 302 to move closer or further apart. Clamping blocks 302 are both engaged with clamping blocks 306 on their inner walls. A bracket 307 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of clamping blocks 306. A positioning rod 308 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of bracket 307. The outer wall of positioning rod 308 is inserted into the inner wall of fixing plate 101. By setting positioning rod 308, when installing bracket 307, bracket 307 is first inserted into fixing plate 101 to preliminarily position bracket 307. Slide groove 309 is provided inside bracket 307. There are two slide grooves 309.
[0032] A sliding housing 310 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the slide groove 309. A connecting rope 311 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sliding housing 310. There are two connecting ropes 311. The outer wall of the connecting rope 311 contains the same parts. By setting the connecting rope 311, the internal parts are prevented from being damaged by the turbulent water surface. The connecting rope 311 can also provide a certain amount of buffering force. A fixing frame 312 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting rope 311. A fixing block 313 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the fixing frame 312. A sensor 314 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing block 313. A threaded rod 315 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the sliding housing 310. By setting the threaded rod 315, the sliding housing 310 can slide in the slide groove 309 by manually rotating the threaded rod 315, thereby driving the sensor 314 to move and adjust the height of the sensor 314. The outer wall of the threaded rod 315 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the bracket 307.
[0033] One specific application of this embodiment is:
[0034] When the protective housing 201 needs to be removed for cleaning, firstly, slide the slider 206 in the second slide groove 209. The slider 206 drives the locking block 204 to move, thus moving the locking block 204 away from the protective housing 201. During the movement of the locking block 204, the telescopic rod 203 and the spring 207 are compressed. Then, slide the slider 206 laterally in the second slide groove 209, which also causes the slider 206 to slide in the first slide groove 205. This fixes the position of the slider 206 in the second slide groove 209, thereby fixing the position of the locking block 204. Then, remove the protective housing 201 downwards for cleaning. After cleaning, return it to its original position. Then, move the slider 206 in the second slide groove 209 so that the slider 206 can slide in the first slide groove 205. At this time, the second slide groove 209 does not have the function of limiting the slider 206, and due to the reaction force of the spring 207 itself... The mechanism compresses the locking block 204, causing it to engage with the protective housing 201 and fix its position. This mechanism, by using the protective housing 201, prevents floating debris from covering the sensor 314, thus ensuring its stability and accuracy during long-term use and effectively reducing interference from floating debris. Then, the positioning rod 308 on the bracket 307 is inserted into the corresponding position in the fixing plate 101, which is a component of the water level monitoring device. The worm gear 305 is then manually rotated, causing the worm wheel 304 to rotate. Simultaneously, the worm wheel 304 rotates, driving the bidirectional threaded rod 303 to rotate, causing the two clamping blocks 302 to slide within the sliding groove 301 and move closer together. Once close, they clamp the locking block 306, thus fixing the position of the bracket 307. Then, manually rotate the threaded rod 315 to drive the sliding housing 310 to slide in the sliding groove 309, thereby adjusting the height of the sensor 314. Due to the design of the connecting rope 311, it can prevent excessive water flow from impacting the sensor 314 and causing damage. This mechanism can quickly install the bracket 307 onto the water level monitoring device, and at the same time, the height of the sensor 314 can be manually adjusted to ensure that the sensor 314 is in the optimal measurement range, avoiding inaccurate measurements due to being too deep or too shallow.
