Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of environmental monitoring technology. Specifically, it relates to an environmental monitoring buoy. Background Technology

[0002] Water quality monitoring in aquatic environments involves monitoring and determining the types of pollutants in water bodies, their concentrations, and trends, and evaluating water quality. Environmental monitoring equipment is designed for buoys placed on the water surface for periodic water quality monitoring. However, existing buoys cannot store sample liquids or periodically replace them, hindering effective periodic monitoring. Furthermore, the bottom of these buoys is easily entangled in aquatic plants, preventing them from moving. Utility Model Content

[0003] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide an environmental monitoring buoy that can orderly raise and lower the sampling bottle for sampling by rotating the rotating disk. The sampling bottle can sample along the bottom, and during the downward movement, the originally stored liquid can be discharged along the top, so that the two liquid streams have little mutual influence.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0005] The device includes a housing with a hollow ring on its outer surface and a rotating mechanism on its upper surface. The rotating mechanism includes a rotating blade, a drive gear, and a rotating disk. The rotating blade is rotatably mounted on the upper surface of the housing, and the rotating disk is rotatably mounted inside the housing. A lifting groove is formed on the inner side of the rotating disk, and a sampling bottle is attached to the surface of the lifting groove. The sampling bottle is slidably mounted inside the housing, and a fixed valve is slidably mounted inside the sampling bottle. A sealing groove is formed below the fixed valve, and a sealing plate is rotatably mounted on the surface of the sealing groove. A sealing spring is mounted on one side of the sealing plate. An extension rod is slidably mounted on the upper surface of the sampling bottle, and an overlapping block is rotatably mounted on one side of the extension rod.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model has achieved the following beneficial technical effects:

[0007] This design utilizes a rotating blade to drive a rotating disk under wind power. The rotating disk allows the sampling bottle to be raised and lowered in an orderly manner for sampling. The sampling bottle can be sampled from below, and during the downward movement, the originally stored liquid can be discharged from above, minimizing the mutual influence between the upper and lower liquid streams. By using two extension rods, one moving towards the center of the shell and the other moving outward, it is possible to pull and cut a tangled aquatic plant, increasing the cutting efficiency.

[0013] This implementation example is attached to the instruction manual. Figure 1 As shown, the shell 1 is arranged in a cross shape. Four hollow rings 2 are set on the edge of the shell 1. The hollow interior of the hollow rings 2 increases the drainage area of ​​the shell 1, allowing the shell 1 to float on the water surface. A rotating blade 3 is set on the top of the shell 1. The rotating blade 3 is rotatably mounted on the shell 1 and is equipped with corresponding bearings to facilitate the rotation of the rotating blade 3. When there is wind on the water surface, the rotating blade 3 can rotate. Since the shape of the rotating blade 3 has the same principle as the fan blade, the rotation of the rotating blade 3 drives the drive gear 4 of this solution to rotate. The drive gear 4 meshes with the bottom of the rotating blade 3, and the bottom of the drive gear 4 meshes with the rotating disk 5, ultimately causing the rotating disk 5 to rotate. This solution also has a motor installed above the drive gear 4. This motor is powered by a solar panel. The solar panel is set on the top of the shell 1. When the wind is insufficient, the motor automatically drives the rotating disk 5 to rotate. The motor does not have a self-locking function. In this way, the rotating disk 5 can be rotated by wind power or by the motor when the wind power is insufficient.

[0014] As per the instruction manual Figure 2 and 3As shown, a connecting pipe is installed inside the housing 1. The connecting pipe is a rigid pipe, and a fixed valve 8 is installed at one end of the connecting pipe. The two can be understood as being fixedly installed together, so the fixed valve 8 is also stationary on the housing 1. A sampling bottle 7 is vertically slidably installed inside the housing 1. Since one end of the sampling bottle 7 has a cylinder that overlaps the lifting groove 6, the lifting groove 6 is a groove connected end to end, opened on the inner side of the rotating disk 5. The lifting groove 6 has a highest point and a lowest point. As the lifting groove 6 rotates, the sampling bottle 7 has to change position, that is, move up and down. The top of the lifting groove 6 is a flat section. The flat section is designed to allow the sampling bottle 7 to stay inside the housing 1 for a longer time. As the sampling bottle 7 moves up and down, relative sliding will occur between it and the fixed valve 8. A detachable cap can be installed on the top of the sampling bottle 7 to facilitate the movement and storage of the liquid.

[0015] This system utilizes the relative sliding between the fixed valve 8 and the sampling bottle 7 for sampling and drainage. The sampling bottle 7 has a through-hole at the top, through which the fixed valve 8 is inserted. The two components slide in a sealed manner, as shown in the instruction manual. Figure 3 As shown, at this time, the sampling bottle 7 moves downward, forming a seal between the fixed valve 8 and the sampling bottle 7. This causes the fixed valve 8 to squeeze the liquid above it (the liquid is above the fixed valve 8), and there is only one outlet, the connecting port 15, which is connected to the connecting tube. The fixed valve 8 squeezes the liquid above it onto the connecting tube and discharges it to the top of the housing 1 (as shown in the instruction manual). Figure 3 As shown), the connecting tube has a circular outlet at the top of the housing 1, allowing discharge to the outside of the housing 1. A low-lying area can be provided at the outlet to prevent backflow. As the sampling bottle 7 moves to the bottom, the extension rod 12 is inserted into the right side of the sealing plate 10. The sealing plate 10 rotates on the sealing groove 9. Both the sealing plate 10 and the sealing groove 9 have circular outlines, with the rotation center of the sealing plate 10 located at the center of the circular outline. A cylinder is provided on the edge of the sealing plate 10, and a corresponding circular hole is provided in the sealing groove 9 to prevent detachment. A sealing spring 11, a torsion spring, is provided on the edge of the sealing plate 10. The function of the sealing spring 11 is to ensure that the sealing plate 10 remains in place without external force, as shown in the attached instruction manual. Figure 2As shown, it can form a complete circle with the fixed valve 8, pushing the liquid upwards. Upon reaching the extension rod 12, the extension rod 12 causes the right side of the sealing valve to press down and the left side to lift, thus preventing a seal. Simultaneously, the overlapping block 13, which rotates on one side of the extension rod 12, will also engage with the middle right side of the sealing groove 9. The overlapping block 13 is rotatably positioned on one side of the extension rod 12, with its rotation center at the bottom. A torsion spring is also installed at the rotation center. This torsion spring has a larger elastic force than the extension spring 14. Therefore, as the overlapping block 13 engages with the sealing groove 9, it causes the sealing block to lift, preventing it from sealing the liquid. At this time, the sampling bottle 7 also... Once the liquid level is reached, the sampling bottle 7 will automatically close as it returns upwards. (Because the fixed valve 8 and the inlet valve 17 are connected by a rope 16, the rope 16 has a limited length. As the sampling bottle 7 reaches its lowest point, the rope 16 pulls the inlet valve 17 upwards, opening the channel and allowing the liquid to quickly fill the sampling bottle 7. As the sampling bottle 7 returns to its original position, the rope 16 is no longer taut, preventing the inlet valve 17 from being pulled. The inlet valve 17 will then automatically return downwards under the action of a spring, blocking the lower inlet. The inlet valve 17 also has a spring-supported sliding mechanism, as shown in the instruction manual.) Figure 2 (As shown in the magnified area), the liquid will be inside the sampling bottle 7. Since the sealing strip 10 can no longer seal at this time, the sealing strip 10 will... (as shown in the instruction manual). Figure 2 As shown, once the bottom of the sampling bottle 7 is reached, the sampling bottle 7 has completed sampling. Continuous circulation will also drain the liquid in the sampling bottle 7 and replace the liquid in the sampling bottle 7. By setting a corresponding detection device on the sampling bottle 7 or the fixed valve 8, the water sample can be tested.

[0016] The above describes how the overlapping block 13 can engage the sealing groove 9. As the sampling bottle 7 returns upwards, the extension rod 12 has a limited length. When the sampling bottle 7 reaches its highest point, it reaches the limit of the extension rod 12's length. At this point, the overlapping block 13 must rotate clockwise to disengage from the sealing groove 9. As the overlapping block 13 disengages, the sealing sheet 10, under the action of the sealing spring 11, is as shown in the attached instruction manual. Figure 2 The process is repeated to reset the seal and achieve a cyclic operation.

[0017] Because this solution has an upward docking and downward disconnection mechanism, it cannot completely remove all the liquid. However, due to the continuity and replacement of water quality, the impact on the sampling and testing results is relatively small.

[0018] As per the instruction manual Figure 4As shown, an elliptical groove 18 is provided on the upper surface of the rotating disk 5. The elliptical groove 18 is elliptical, and the length of the ellipse reaching the center varies. Therefore, the sliding extension rod 19 is limited on one side of the housing 1. The cross-section of the extension rod 19 is elliptical, and the sliding hole on the housing 1 is also elliptical. This can prevent the extension rod 19 from rotating. As the rotating disk 5 rotates, the extension rod 19 also moves back and forth. A cutting block 20 is rotatably arranged below the extension rod 19. The edge of the rotation center of the cutting block 20 also has a torsion spring to prevent the cutting block 20 from touching hard objects. The cutting block 20 can cut the water plants wrapped around the bottom of the housing 1 to prevent the float from being fixed by the water plants.

[0019] To ensure the four sets of extension rods 19 can cooperate, with adjacent extension rods 19 configured to be one pull and one push, a corresponding strip is provided at one end of the cutting block 20, allowing the cutting block 20 to rotate only in one direction, as shown in the instruction manual. Figure 2 The cutting block 20 on the right can only rotate outwards, while the two adjacent cutting blocks 20 with a 90-degree circumference can only rotate inwards. This allows for a pull and a push, such as when cutting a water plant, to work together to cut the water plant.
