Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wind speed and direction measurement technology, and in particular to a wind speed and direction measuring instrument with a heating structure. Background Technology
[0002] Wind speed and direction measuring instruments are key equipment in meteorological monitoring, environmental assessment, aerospace, marine engineering, and agricultural production. Their measurement accuracy and stability directly affect decision-making and safety in these industries. However, in practical applications, these instruments often face interference from complex environments. Among these, icing, frost, and condensation caused by low temperatures, high humidity, or rain and snow are major problems affecting their performance.
[0003] Existing wind speed and direction measuring instruments consist of a support frame and wind speed and wind direction measuring mechanisms. The support frame provides a stable mounting foundation for the wind speed and wind direction measuring mechanisms, allowing them to maintain a stable posture under the action of wind. The wind speed measuring mechanism rotates under the push of the wind through its wind-driven components, converting wind energy into mechanical rotation. The rotation information is then converted into an electrical signal by internal sensing elements to reflect the wind speed. The wind direction measuring mechanism rotates with the wind direction using components such as a wind vane. Its direction change is transmitted to the sensing device through a transmission structure, and then converted into an electrical signal corresponding to the wind direction to achieve wind direction measurement.
[0004] In the aforementioned prior art, some devices, due to the lack of effective heating and temperature control structures in low-temperature environments, are prone to problems such as frost, freezing, or performance degradation in the wind speed measuring mechanism's impeller, wind cups, and other wind-receiving components, as well as internal sensing elements; the wind direction measuring mechanism's wind vane, transmission structure, and sensing devices; and key shafts connecting various components. This results in limited or even damaged functionality of these key components, making it impossible to continuously, stably, and accurately complete wind speed and direction measurements. This seriously affects the normal use of the measuring instrument in cold regions or winter and other low-temperature environments. Therefore, a wind speed and direction measuring instrument with a heating structure is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0023] 1. In this utility model, the heater serves as the core heat source. The heat generated is transferred sequentially to the wind direction heat conduction coil and the wind speed heat conduction coil through the element heat conduction coil. At the same time, with the help of the efficient conduction performance of the conductive shell, the heat is transferred to the controller and the connecting shaft and shaft core respectively. The temperature controller monitors and adjusts the heating temperature in real time to ensure that each heated component will not be limited in function due to excessively low temperature, nor will it be damaged due to overheating.

The docking shaft transmits the rotation stably to the shaft core, so as to solve the problems of the wind direction measuring component's finger rod being unbalanced and unable to accurately indicate the wind direction, and the wind speed measuring component's loose installation causing power transmission loss and data distortion.

A mounting ring 53 is threadedly connected to the top of the mounting shaft 3, which facilitates the installation, disassembly, and maintenance of the shaft core 54. The shaft core 54 is fixedly connected inside the mounting ring 53, which transmits the rotation information of wind speed measurement to the controller 471. A docking shaft 55 is fixedly connected to the top receiving end of the shaft core 54, which enhances the connection stability between the shaft core 54 and the mounting plate 56. The receiving end of 54 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 56, which provides a uniformly distributed mounting base for the extension plate 510. The outside of the rotating ring 52 is fixedly connected to the wind plate 57, which can be driven by the wind to rotate the rotating ring 52. The other side of the outside of the rotating ring 52 is fixedly connected to the finger rod 58, which can accurately point in the direction of the wind. The outside of the finger rod 58 is threadedly connected to the counterweight ring 59, which can balance the weight of the finger rod 58 and make its rotation more sensitive.

It can specifically heat the shaft core 54 to ensure its rotation sensitivity.
[0037] Working principle: During use, flange 1 fixes the entire assembly to the mounting base. Protective shell 2 protects the internal heating mechanism 4 and control components 47. Mounting shaft 3 provides a support base for measuring mechanism 5. During operation, when in a low-temperature environment, heater 42 in heating mechanism 4 starts to generate heat. This heat is transferred from element heat conduction coil 44 to wind-driven heat conduction coil 45, and simultaneously transferred to controller 471 through conductive shell 41. Wind-driven heat conduction coil 45 transfers heat to wind speed heat conduction coil 46, and simultaneously transferred to connecting shaft 51 through conductive shell 41. Finally, wind speed heat conduction coil 46 transfers heat to shaft core 54 through conductive shell 41. The entire heating temperature is adjusted in real time by temperature controller 43 to ensure that controller 471, connecting shaft 51, and shaft core 54 are at a suitable working temperature, avoiding functional abnormalities due to low temperature. Controller 471, as the core, receives and processes signals from various components, while transmitter 472 sends the processed information to external devices.
[0038] During measurement, the wind vane 57 is driven by the wind to rotate the rotating ring 52 around the mounting shaft 3 via the connecting shaft 51. The finger rod 58 accurately points to the wind direction under the balance of the counterweight ring 59. Its rotation signal is transmitted to the controller 471 through the connecting shaft 51. The wind cover 511 is driven by the wind to rotate the extension plate 510 and the mounting plate 56. The docking shaft 55 transmits the rotation to the shaft core 54. The shaft core 54, supported by the mounting ring 53, transmits the wind speed signal to the controller 471, realizing the real-time measurement of wind speed and wind direction.
