AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The existing fixed open channel water level and flow monitoring devices are difficult to construct, have a long construction period, and are costly, especially in silty riverbanks or near buildings.

Method used

The column structure is fixed by prefabricated bases and helical anchors. The helical anchors are bolted to the bases, avoiding the need to excavate and pour concrete bases on the canal bank. The installation is carried out by connecting the helical anchors to the prefabricated bases.

Benefits of technology

It reduces construction difficulty and time, improves installation efficiency, reduces damage to the site environment, and facilitates later dismantling or relocation. Fixed facilities can be reused.

Abstract

This utility model relates to a water level and flow rate monitoring device for open channels, comprising a prefabricated base, multiple helical anchors, a column fixed to the base, a horizontal arm fixed to the column, a water level and flow rate monitoring probe fixed to the horizontal arm, and an equipment box fixed to the column. The helical anchors are screwed into the soil beside the channel. A connecting bolt is provided at the top of the helical anchor for connection to the base, and connecting holes corresponding to the connecting bolts at the top of the helical anchor are provided on the edge of the base. The base and the helical anchors are fixedly connected by the connecting bolts. This utility model uses helical anchors to fix the prefabricated base, and the helical anchors are fixedly connected to the base by bolts. This avoids excavating and pouring concrete foundations on the channel bank, greatly saving construction time, improving the installation efficiency of the device, and reducing construction difficulty.
