[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water conservancy monitoring technology, specifically a water conservancy monitoring device. Background Technology
[0002] Hydrological and water conservancy monitoring equipment is specialized equipment used to measure, monitor, and record various parameters and indicators in the field of hydrology and water conservancy. It covers monitoring of multiple aspects including hydrology, water quality, water level, flow rate, rainfall, waves, water temperature, and water pressure, and is used to acquire key data and information within the hydrological and water conservancy system. Because water conservancy monitoring facilities must be located near rivers...
[0003] Lake monitoring stations are mostly installed in the wild. In addition, the water conditions of rivers and lakes vary greatly from year to year. Therefore, the common approach is to use a high pole, long cross arm, and integrated installation solution. A single pole usually has a variety of precision equipment such as solar panels, cameras, rain gauges, and water level gauges installed on it, so as to achieve a large measurement range and collect a variety of monitoring elements at a relatively low cost.
[0004] Traditionally, water conservancy monitoring equipment is usually installed on a support structure using fixed brackets or bolts. Once the equipment is installed at a high place, maintenance or replacement often requires operators to climb to the equipment location, which not only poses safety hazards but also increases the difficulty and time cost of the operation. In some cases, it is even necessary to dismantle the support structure to lower the equipment height, which seriously affects work efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a water conservancy monitoring device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0007] A water conservancy monitoring device includes a support column, a level gauge, a rainfall sensor, a solar panel, a telemetry terminal, and a fixing ring. The outer wall of the support column has four equally spaced strip grooves, and each of the four strip grooves has a plurality of insertion holes at equal intervals. The fixing ring includes:
[0008] Two arc-shaped clamps are provided, with one end of each arc-shaped clamp rotatably connected for engaging with the outer wall of the support column. Threaded holes are provided through the corresponding outer walls of the two arc-shaped clamps.
[0009] Two cylindrical sleeves are provided, and their outer walls are provided with threaded grooves that engage with threaded holes. A knob is fitted and fixed to the outer end of each cylindrical sleeve.
[0010] There are two plug-in pins, which are respectively inserted into the inside of two cylindrical sleeves for insertion and mating with the plug-in holes. The opposite ends of the two plug-in pins are fixedly connected to the fixing plates by connecting rods. The outer walls of the two connecting rods inside the cylindrical sleeves are fitted with springs. The outer walls of the two fixing plates are fixedly connected with pull rings.
[0011] There are two mounting plates, which are fixedly connected to the top side of the two arc-shaped clamps respectively.
[0012] Furthermore, the outer walls of the two arc-shaped clamps are each fixedly connected to two limiting rods, and the two fixing plates are slidably connected to the corresponding two limiting rods.
[0013] Furthermore, the outer ends of both cylindrical sleeves are rotatably connected to connecting plates, and the connecting plates are slidably connected to the corresponding two limiting rods.
[0014] Furthermore, both connecting plates have mating grooves on their outer side walls.
[0015] Furthermore, both of the fixed plates have rotatably connected docking rods on their bottom surfaces.
[0016] Furthermore, rope loops are fixedly connected to the outer walls of both connecting rods.
[0017] Furthermore, the bottom edge of the insertion hole is designed with a chamfered slope.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0019] 1. Through the coordinated design of the slot, insertion hole, and fixing ring, maintenance personnel only need to use a long pole on the ground to unlock the fixing ring and slide it down the slot, which facilitates equipment maintenance without having to climb or disassemble the entire support column, thus improving maintenance efficiency.
[0020] 2. By providing multiple insertion holes at equal intervals within the support column, the installation height can be flexibly adjusted according to water level, seasonal changes, or equipment requirements, thereby improving monitoring adaptability. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0030] 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.
[0031] Example
[0032] Please see Figure 1-8In this embodiment of the utility model, a water conservancy monitoring device includes a support column 100, a level gauge 200, a rainfall sensor 300, a solar panel 400, a telemetry terminal 500, and a fixing ring 600. The outer wall of the support column 100 has four strip-shaped grooves 110 at equal angles, and each of the four strip-shaped grooves 110 has a plurality of insertion holes 120 at equal intervals. The fixing ring 600 includes two semi-circular arc-shaped clips 610, one end of which is rotatably connected. The two arc-shaped clips 610 are used to engage with the outer wall of the support column 100. After the two arc-shaped clips 610 are rotatably engaged, they are fixedly connected by bolts and nuts. The corresponding outer walls of the two arc-shaped clips 610 each have threaded holes 611. Each of the two threaded holes 611 has a cylindrical sleeve 620 inserted into it. The outer walls of the two cylindrical sleeves 620 each have threaded grooves 621. The two cylindrical sleeves 620 are screwed into the two threaded holes 611 respectively. Both ends are fitted with knobs 622. Each of the two cylindrical sleeves 620 has a plug-in post 630 inserted inside. The two plug-in posts 630 are used to engage with the plug-in holes 120. The opposite ends of the two plug-in posts 630 are fixedly connected to fixing plates 633 via connecting rods 631. The connecting rods 631 are inserted into the interior of the cylindrical sleeves 620, and the fixing plates 633 are fixedly connected to the outer ends of the connecting rods 631. The two connecting rods 631 are located inside the cylindrical sleeves 620. Springs 632 are fitted onto the outer walls of each device. The two ends of the springs 632 abut against the end sides of the plug-in post 630 and the inner wall of the cylindrical sleeve 620, respectively. Pull rings 634 are fixedly connected to the opposite outer walls of the two fixing plates 633. Mounting plates 640 are fixedly connected to the top sides of the two arc-shaped clips 610. Several through holes are opened on the top surface of the mounting plates 640 for fitting and installing the liquid level gauge 200, the rain sensor 300, the solar panel 400, and the telemetry terminal 500.
[0033] Specifically, the two arc-shaped clips 610 are fastened around the strip groove 110 and a closed structure is formed by rotating the connection point. The two arc-shaped clips 610 are then fixed as a whole by bolts. At this time, the cylindrical sleeve 620 is in its initial state, retracted into the threaded hole 611 and not protruding. The fixing ring 600 can rotate freely or slide up and down. The monitoring equipment to be installed, such as the level gauge 200, rain sensor 300, solar panel 400, or telemetry terminal 500, is installed on the mounting plate 640. The fixing ring 600 is rotated horizontally so that the positions of the two cylindrical sleeves 620 are aligned with the two symmetrical strip grooves 110 on the support column 100. The knob 622 is rotated so that the cylindrical sleeves 620 are aligned with the strip grooves 110. The ring moves in one direction until its end contacts the inner wall of the groove 110. At this point, the fixing ring 600 is confined within the groove 110 and can only move up and down, not rotate horizontally, ensuring stability. When the fixing ring 600 is pushed to the appropriate height, the insertion post 630 is inserted into the corresponding insertion hole 120 to lock it in place. The fixing ring 600 is then firmly fixed and cannot move up or down. When it is necessary to maintain the monitoring equipment, a long rod tool can be used to pass through the pull ring 634 from bottom to top and apply force in the opposite direction to pull the two pull rings 634 outward, causing the spring 632 to contract. The insertion post 630 then moves and retracts into the cylindrical sleeve 620. At this point, the fixing ring 600 returns to a sliding state and can move up and down along the groove 110.
[0034] like Figure 4-7 As shown, in this embodiment, two limiting rods 612 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of the two arc-shaped clamps 610. The two limiting rods 612 are symmetrical about the threaded hole 611. Each limiting rod 612 has a limiting block at its outer end. The side wall of the fixing plate 633 has two circular holes symmetrically opened. The limiting rods 612 are inserted into the circular holes. The two fixing plates 633 are slidably connected to the corresponding two limiting rods 612. The outer ends of the two cylindrical sleeves 620 are rotatably connected to a connecting plate 623. The side wall of the connecting plate 623 also has two circular holes symmetrically opened. The limiting rods 612 are also inserted into the circular holes. The connecting plate 623 is slidably connected to the corresponding two limiting rods 612.
[0035] In this embodiment, the cylindrical sleeve 620 is limited by the limiting rod 612 through the fixing plate 633, so that when the cylindrical sleeve 620 moves, the plug pin 630 moves with the cylindrical sleeve 620 due to the spring 632 between them. When the knob 622 is turned, only the cylindrical sleeve 620 rotates, and the connecting plate 623 and plug pin 630 and other components do not rotate with it, ensuring the stability of movement and ensuring that the pull ring 634 does not rotate arbitrarily, which facilitates the subsequent use of long-handled tools to cooperate with it.
[0036] like Figure 6-8As shown, in this embodiment, the outer side walls of the two connecting plates 623 are provided with docking grooves 624 near the bottom surface, and the bottom surfaces of the two fixing plates 633 are rotatably connected with docking rods 635. The outer side walls of the two docking rods 635 are fixedly connected with rope rings 636, and the bottom dimensions of the docking rods 635 match the dimensions of the docking grooves 624.
[0037] In practice, when lifting the fixing ring 600 upwards, to prevent the insertion post 630 from interfering with the movement of the fixing ring 600, the pull ring 634 can be pulled outwards in advance, causing the insertion post 630 to retract into the cylindrical sleeve 620. The docking rod 635 is then rotated so that the bottom end of the docking rod 635 abuts against the docking groove 624, keeping the insertion post 630 and the retaining spring 632 in a contracted state. A pull rope is connected to the rope ring 636 in advance. When the fixing ring 600 is pushed to a suitable height, the pull rope is pulled downwards, causing the docking rod 635 to rotate downwards through external force, releasing the restriction on the insertion post 630. The spring 632 releases its elasticity, pushing the insertion post 630 outwards and locking it into the insertion hole 120 on the strip groove 110, thus achieving automatic locking.
[0038] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the bottom edge of the insertion hole 120 is designed with a chamfered slope.
[0039] In practice, when it rains, the water flow is used to flush the insertion hole 120 to reduce the accumulation of deposits, and the deposits flow down the slope to the ground.
