Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water quality monitoring technology, and in particular to a water quality monitoring device for plateau lakes. Background Technology

[0002] Plateau lakes are lakes located in high-altitude plateau regions, typically above 500 meters in altitude. The location of plateau lakes is relatively high compared to the surrounding areas.

[0003] Highland lakes, as unique ecosystems on Earth, have extremely important ecological, economic and social value. They are not only habitats for numerous wild animals and plants, playing a key role in maintaining biodiversity, but also provide important water resources for surrounding areas, supporting agricultural irrigation, industrial production and domestic water use.

[0004] Traditional water quality monitoring methods primarily rely on manual sampling. Monitoring personnel must travel to the lake in person, collect water samples using sampling equipment, and then bring the samples back to the laboratory for analysis. This method has several drawbacks. First, the complex terrain, harsh climate, and inconvenient transportation in high-altitude areas make manual sampling not only costly in terms of manpower, resources, and time, but also pose significant challenges, or even make it impossible, to conduct sampling in some remote and inaccessible areas. Second, the relatively low frequency of manual sampling makes it difficult to achieve real-time, continuous monitoring of lake water quality, and it fails to capture instantaneous changes in water quality, potentially missing crucial information about water quality shifts.

[0005] Therefore, water quality monitoring devices for plateau lakes are needed. Utility Model Content

[0006] The main purpose of this invention is to provide a water quality monitoring device for plateau lakes, which can effectively solve the problems mentioned above.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0008] A plateau lake water quality monitoring device includes a drone body, an installation component fixedly connected to the upper middle part of the drone body, a solar panel placed in the inner ring of the installation component, floating bases fixedly connected to the four corners of the lower part of the drone body, and a monitoring component fixedly connected to the lower middle part of the drone body.

[0009] Preferably, the mounting assembly includes a mounting base, which is fixedly connected to the upper middle part of the UAV body. A threaded shell is fixedly connected to the upper left side of the outer surface of the mounting base. A threaded rod is threadedly connected to the inner surface of the threaded shell. A knob is fixedly connected to the left end of the threaded rod, and a pressing block is rotatably connected to the right end of the threaded rod.

[0010] Preferably, a groove is provided on the upper left side of the inner surface of the fixed seat, and the extrusion block is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the groove.

[0011] Preferably, the monitoring component includes a connecting shell and a stepper motor. The connecting shell is fixedly connected to the lower middle part of the UAV body. A telescopic rod is slidably connected to the inner surface of the connecting shell. A threaded rod is threadedly connected to the inner surface of the telescopic rod. A protective frame is fixedly connected to the lower end of the telescopic rod. A water quality sensor is fixedly connected to the middle of the top wall of the protective frame. A cleaning mechanism is rotatably connected to the middle of the lower end of the protective frame. The stepper motor is fixedly connected to the middle part of the interior of the UAV body.

[0012] Preferably, the output end of the stepper motor passes through the upper end of the connecting shell and is fixedly connected to the threaded rod, and the outer surface of the protective frame is provided with several rectangular holes.

[0013] Preferably, the cleaning mechanism includes a fixed rod, which is rotatably connected to the middle of the lower end of the protective frame. The front and rear of the outer surface of the fixed rod are fixedly connected to connecting plates. Scrapers are fixedly connected to the upper ends of the two connecting plates that are far apart from each other. A rotating rod is fixedly connected to the lower part of the fixed rod.

[0014] Preferably, the two scrapers are symmetrically distributed front and back, and both scrapers are in contact with the outer surface of the protective frame.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. This device uses a drone and monitoring components. The drone itself is not limited by terrain and transportation conditions, making it especially suitable for remote and hard-to-reach plateau lakes. Compared with manual hiking or using traditional transportation, it greatly saves time and manpower costs. The monitoring components monitor the lake water quality, allowing staff to monitor the water quality without having to go to the lake site, improving the convenience of monitoring and avoiding the risks and difficulties of personnel working in harsh environments.

[0017] 2. This device, through its designed installation components, allows for the installation and removal of solar panels. For short-distance, short-duration monitoring tasks, the solar panels can be removed to reduce the weight of the drone and improve its flight flexibility and maneuverability. For long-distance, long-duration monitoring tasks, the solar panels can be installed to increase the drone's endurance. This allows staff to flexibly choose whether to install solar panels based on different water quality monitoring tasks. Attached Figure Description

[0024] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0025] Example 1, as Figure 1 As shown, the plateau lake water quality monitoring device includes a drone body 1, an installation component 2 fixedly connected to the upper middle part of the drone body 1, a solar panel 3 placed in the inner circle of the installation component 2, floats 4 fixedly connected to the four corners of the lower part of the drone body 1, and a monitoring component 5 fixedly connected to the lower middle part of the drone body 1.

[0026] The drone body 1 in this device can be replaced by an existing technology model: M300 RTK monitoring drone.

[0027] Before implementation, the drone needs to be remotely controlled to fly to the plateau lake to be monitored. When it flies above the lake, the drone body 1 is controlled to fly downwards, so that the drone body 1 contacts the lake surface through the float 4. After the float 4 contacts the lake surface, the drone body 1 is shut down, so that the drone body 1 stops moving. Due to the hollow design of the float 4, the float 4 will float on the water surface, thus making the drone body 1 float on the water surface. Then, the monitoring component 5 is controlled to work, so that the monitoring component 5 moves downwards. At this time, the lake water will enter the monitoring component 5, and the water quality will be monitored through the monitoring component 5.

[0028] As mentioned above, water quality monitoring of lakes is generally divided into long-term monitoring and short-term monitoring. When long-term monitoring of lakes is required, solar panels 3 can be installed in the mounting component 2 and then fixed by the mounting component 2. This allows the drone body 1 to increase its endurance when monitoring water quality for a long time through the solar panels 3. This means that the drone body 1 does not need to frequently return to the base to recharge when monitoring water quality, thus improving the efficiency of water quality monitoring.

[0029] When only short-term water quality monitoring is required, the solar panel 3 can be removed from the mounting assembly 2, reducing the weight of the drone body 1 and improving the flight flexibility and maneuverability of the drone body 1.

[0030] As described above, after the monitoring is completed, the staff remotely operates the drone body 1 to fly back to the base. When monitoring the water quality, its monitoring component 5 can resist algae and fish in the lake. After the drone body 1 flies back to the base, the monitoring component 5 can be cleaned by rotating it, so that algae and impurities will not continue to adhere to the monitoring component 5, thus preventing the monitoring component 5 from becoming clogged.

[0031] In Example 2, further, in order to achieve the purpose of mounting the solar panel 3 on the drone body 1 through the mounting component 2, see [reference needed]. Figure 2 The mounting component 2 includes a mounting base 21, which is fixedly connected to the upper middle side of the UAV body 1. A threaded shell 23 is fixedly connected to the upper left side of the outer surface of the mounting base 21. A threaded rod 25 is threadedly connected to the inner surface of the threaded shell 23. A knob 24 is fixedly connected to the left end of the threaded rod 25. A pressing block 22 is rotatably connected to the right end of the threaded rod 25.

[0032] Furthermore, a groove is provided on the upper left side of the inner surface of the fixed base 21, and the extrusion block 22 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the groove.

[0033] In the above-mentioned scenario, when the device needs to monitor the lake for an extended period of time, the connecting rod on the solar panel 3 can be embedded into the inner surface of the fixing base 21. After the solar panel 3 is placed into the inner surface of the fixing base 21, the knob 24 can be rotated to drive the threaded rod 25 to rotate. When the threaded rod 25 rotates, through its threaded connection with the threaded shell 23, it will drive the extrusion block 22 to move towards the axis of the fixing base 21 within the groove, so that the extrusion block 22 fits against the connecting rod of the solar panel 3, thereby achieving the purpose of installing the solar panel 3 on the drone body 1. This allows the solar panel 3 to supplement the energy of the drone body 1 during long-term water quality monitoring, increasing the endurance of the drone body 1.

[0034] In the above, when it is necessary to remove the solar panel 3, simply rotate the knob 24 in the opposite direction to make the threaded rod 25 drive the pressing block 22 to move away from the axis of the fixed seat 21, so that the pressing block 22 is away from the connecting rod of the solar panel 3, and the solar panel 3 can be removed from the fixed seat 21.

[0035] Furthermore, in order to achieve the purpose of monitoring water quality by monitoring component 5, please refer to... Figure 3 and Figure 4 The monitoring component 5 includes a connecting shell 52 and a stepper motor 51. The connecting shell 52 is fixedly connected to the lower middle part of the UAV body 1. A telescopic rod 54 is slidably connected to the inner surface of the connecting shell 52. A threaded rod 53 is threadedly connected to the inner surface of the telescopic rod 54. A protective frame 55 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the telescopic rod 54. A water quality sensor 56 is fixedly connected to the middle of the top wall of the protective frame 55. A cleaning mechanism 57 is rotatably connected to the middle of the lower end of the protective frame 55. The stepper motor 51 is fixedly connected to the middle part of the inside of the UAV body 1.

[0036] Furthermore, the output end of the stepper motor 51 passes through the upper end of the connecting shell 52 and is fixedly connected to the threaded rod 53, and several rectangular holes are opened on the outer surface of the protective frame 55.

[0037] In the above process, after the UAV body 1 floats on the water surface via the float 4, the stepper motor 51 is started. When the stepper motor 51 is working, its output end will rotate. When the output end of the stepper motor 51 rotates, the power will be transmitted to the threaded rod 53 through the coupling, causing the threaded rod 53 to rotate. Through the threaded connection between the telescopic rod 54 and the threaded rod 53, when the threaded rod 53 rotates, it will cause the telescopic rod 54 to slide downward in the inner cavity of the connecting shell 52, causing the connecting shell 52 to slide downward together with the protective frame 55, so that the protective frame 55 is inserted into the lake. Then, water will enter the protective frame 55, and the water quality will be monitored by the water quality sensor 56 installed in the protective frame 55. The water quality sensor 56 will then transmit the monitoring information to the base, realizing the monitoring of water quality.

[0038] The water quality sensor 56 mentioned above is an instrument used to monitor and measure various physical, chemical and biological parameters in water bodies in real time to assess water quality. It can adopt the existing technology model: AMT-W400.

[0039] In the above process, after the monitoring task is completed, the stepper motor 51 is first controlled to rotate in the opposite direction, so that the telescopic rod 54 is lifted out of the water when the protective frame 55 is lifted out of the water. Then the water inside the protective frame 55 will flow out from the square hole. After that, the staff will control the drone body 1 to fly back to the base.

[0040] As described above, the protective frame 55 can protect the water quality sensor 56, preventing fish and impurities in the lake from hitting the water quality sensor 56 and ensuring the safety of the water quality sensor 56.

[0041] After the drone body 1 returns to the base, if there are many impurities attached to the outer surface of the protective frame 55, the staff can manually rotate the cleaning mechanism 57 to clean the outer surface of the protective frame 55.

[0042] Furthermore, in order to achieve the purpose of cleaning the outer surface of the protective frame 55 by the rotating cleaning mechanism 57, refer to... Figure 5 The cleaning mechanism 57 includes a fixed rod 574, which is rotatably connected to the middle of the lower end of the protective frame 55. The front and rear of the fixed rod 574 are fixedly connected to connecting plates 572. The upper ends of the two connecting plates 572, which are far apart from each other, are fixedly connected to scrapers 571. The lower part of the fixed rod 574 is fixedly connected to a rotating rod 573.

[0043] Furthermore, the two scrapers 571 are symmetrically distributed front and back, and both scrapers 571 are in contact with the outer surface of the protective frame 55.

[0044] In the above, by rotating the rotating rod 573, the rotating rod 573 drives the connecting plate 572 to rotate through the fixed rod 574. At this time, the connecting plate 572 will drive the scraper 571 to rotate together, so that the scraper 571 cleans the outer surface of the protective frame 55, so that the impurities in the lake will not block the square hole opened on the protective frame 55.

[0045] It should be noted that the specific installation method, circuit connection method, and control method of the water quality sensor 56 and stepper motor 51 used in this utility model are all conventional designs, and will not be described in detail in this utility model.

[0046] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model.
