Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rain gauge technology, specifically to a tipping bucket rain gauge anti-clogging and cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] A rain gauge is a meteorological or hydrological monitoring device used to measure precipitation (rainfall or snowfall). It is an important tool in fields such as hydrology, meteorology, agriculture, and flood control. Its core function is to quantify precipitation intensity, duration, and cumulative precipitation, providing data support for scientific decision-making. A tipping bucket rain gauge is a mechanical rain gauge that collects rainwater and uses gravity to tip the bucket, with each tipping corresponding to a certain amount of rainfall. It is one of the most widely used rainfall monitoring devices, especially common in traditional hydrological stations and small monitoring systems.

[0003] Based on the above, the following problems were found: Current tipping bucket rain gauges are usually placed outdoors, and the rain collection funnel on top is easily blocked by fallen leaves and other debris, making them inconvenient to use.

[0004] Therefore, in view of this, we have studied and improved the existing structure and its shortcomings, and provided a tipping bucket rain gauge anti-clogging and cleaning device in order to achieve a more practical purpose. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cleaning device for preventing clogging of a tipping bucket rain gauge, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] A tipping bucket rain gauge anti-clogging and cleaning device includes a rain gauge assembly. The rain gauge assembly has a rain collection component at its top, and a sewage discharge component at its top. The sewage discharge component includes a fixing ring and a mounting ring. A filter screen is fixedly installed between the fixing ring and the mounting ring. The mounting ring has several positioning blocks at its bottom, and several limiting seats are fixedly installed at the top of the fixing ring. The mounting ring has a hinge seat at its top, and several dirt-blocking strips are hinged to the outside of the hinge seat. A sliding groove is formed in the middle of each dirt-blocking strip, and the sliding groove is slidably connected to the hinge seat. A threaded rod is threadedly connected to the middle of the hinge seat, and a driving block is provided at the bottom of the threaded rod.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the rainwater collection component and the sewage discharge component facilitate the collection of rainwater entering the device, enabling the rain gauge component to measure rainfall. The sewage discharge component prevents the rainwater collection component from being blocked by fallen leaves and other debris. The fixed ring and mounting ring facilitate the fixed installation of the sewage discharge component inside the rainwater collection component. The filter screen facilitates further filtration, preventing debris that passes through the dirt-blocking strip from entering the rain gauge component. The filter screen is a rigid metal mesh, ensuring the mounting ring is positioned correctly and preventing the fixed ring from rotating. The positioning block facilitates the fixed installation of the mounting ring. The dirt-blocking strip facilitates... An isolation net is formed on the top of the rain collection component to block debris such as fallen leaves, preventing them from clogging the component. The sliding groove allows the limiting seat to limit the sliding groove of the blocking strip, preventing the other end of the blocking strip from rising with the hinge when the hinge seat rises. This allows the debris such as fallen leaves collected by the drainage component to be discharged to the outside of the rain collection component along with the blocking strip. The threaded rod allows the drive block to be inserted into the drive slot, causing the drive shaft to rotate and drive the threaded rod to rotate, thereby controlling the up and down movement of the hinge seat. When moving upward, it controls the end of the blocking strip inside the rain collection funnel to rise, allowing the debris such as fallen leaves blocked by the blocking strip to be discharged to the outside of the rain collection funnel.

[0008] Furthermore, the rain gauge assembly includes a base, a tipping bucket metering structure is fixedly installed at the center of the top of the base, and a protective cylinder is fixedly installed on the outer side of the top of the base.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution and setting up the tipping bucket metering structure, it is convenient to measure the amount of rainfall.

[0010] Furthermore, the rain collection assembly includes a mounting cylinder, which is fixedly mounted on the top of the protective cylinder.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution and setting the mounting cylinder, it is easy to fix the rain collection component on the top of the rain gauge component, which facilitates the collection of rainfall.

[0012] Furthermore, a rain collection funnel is fixedly installed inside the mounting cylinder, and a guide port is provided at the bottom of the rain collection funnel. The guide port is located at the top of the tipping bucket metering structure.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution and setting up the rain collection funnel, it is convenient to collect rainfall and facilitate the measurement of rainfall by the tipping bucket metering structure.

[0014] Furthermore, an installation groove is provided on the inner side of the top of the rain collection funnel, and the installation groove is detachably connected to the fixing ring.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution and setting the positioning groove, the installation ring can be fixed and positioned, thus preventing the installation ring from rotating.

[0016] Furthermore, an installation base is fixedly installed on the bottom inner side of the rain collection funnel, and a positioning groove is provided on the top of the installation base, which is detachably connected to the positioning block.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution and setting the positioning groove, the installation ring can be fixed and positioned, thus preventing the installation ring from rotating.

[0018] Furthermore, a drive shaft is rotatably connected to the middle of the mounting base, and a drive slot is provided on the top of the drive shaft. The drive slot is detachably connected to the drive plug.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution and setting the drive slot, the rotation of the drive shaft can drive the threaded rod to rotate accordingly.

[0020] Furthermore, a drive cavity is fixedly installed on one side of the mounting cylinder, a solar panel is fixedly installed on one side of the drive cavity, and a drive motor, control circuit and battery are fixedly installed inside the drive cavity.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the setting of the drive cavity facilitates the protection of the internal structure, and makes it convenient for the solar panel to convert solar energy into electrical energy to power the drive motor and the battery. The control circuit has a control module and a power management module, which are used to control the charging and discharging of the battery and the operation of the drive motor. The electrical energy stored in the battery powers the drive motor.

[0022] Furthermore, a worm gear is fixedly installed at the output end of the drive motor, and the worm gear is meshed with a worm wheel, which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the drive shaft.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution and by setting up the drive motor, it is easy for the drive motor to work so that the worm can drive the worm wheel to rotate, thereby controlling the rotation of the drive shaft.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The rainwater collection component and the sewage discharge component facilitate the collection of rainwater entering the device, making it easier for the rain gauge component to measure rainfall. The sewage discharge component prevents the rainwater collection component from being blocked by fallen leaves and other debris. The fixed ring and the mounting ring facilitate the fixed installation of the sewage discharge component inside the rainwater collection component. The filter screen facilitates further filtration, preventing debris passing through the barrier strip from entering the rain gauge component. Furthermore, the filter screen is a rigid metal mesh, ensuring the mounting ring is positioned correctly and preventing the fixed ring from rotating. The positioning block facilitates the fixed installation of the mounting ring. The barrier strip effectively forms a barrier at the top of the rainwater collection component, preventing debris such as fallen leaves from entering. To prevent fallen leaves from clogging the rain collection component, a sliding groove is designed to limit the movement of the barrier strip at the groove location. This prevents the other end of the barrier strip from rising with the hinged seat, allowing the collected leaves and other debris to be discharged outside the rain collection component. A threaded rod facilitates the insertion of a drive block into a drive slot, causing the drive shaft to rotate and thus controlling the up-and-down movement of the hinged seat. When moving upwards, the end of the barrier strip inside the rain collection funnel rises, allowing the blocked leaves and other debris to be discharged outside the funnel. This invention effectively prevents fallen leaves and other debris from clogging the rain collection funnel and automatically cleans up these debris, demonstrating high practical value.
