[0023] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 The specific embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below, but it should be understood that the protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without inventive effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0024] The sampling device for water environment monitoring provided by this utility model includes a sampling rod 1 and a pressure controller 2. The sampling rod 1 has multiple sampling holes 11 evenly distributed along its length. Each sampling hole 11 has a piston 12 slidably connected to the corresponding sampling hole 11, with the sliding direction parallel to the axial direction of the corresponding sampling hole 11. A valve assembly 3 is provided at the opening of each sampling hole 11 to control its opening and closing. The sampling rod 1 has a gas guiding passage 13, and each sampling hole 11 has a vent 111 at its bottom. Each sampling hole 11 is connected to the gas guiding passage 13 via the vent 111. The gas guiding passage 13 is also connected to the pressure controller 2, which is electrically connected to a power source. By providing multiple sampling holes 11 on the sampling rod 1 and pistons 12 within each sampling hole 11, the pressure controller 2 connects to the vent 111 at the bottom of each sampling hole 11 via the gas guiding passage 13. 1. By connecting the air pressure controller 2 and changing the air pressure in the air passage 13, the piston 12 can slide within the sampling hole 11, increasing the air pressure in the air passage 13. The piston 12 slides away from the vent 111, decreasing the air pressure in the air passage 13. The piston 12 slides closer to the vent 111. By setting a valve assembly 3 at the opening of the sampling hole 11, the opening of the sampling hole 11 is closed before entering the water. After entering the water, the opening of the sampling hole 11 is opened, and the air pressure controller 2 is activated to move the piston 12 toward the vent 111, drawing water into the sampling hole 11. Then, the opening of the sampling hole 11 is closed, and the device is removed from underwater, thus completing the water sample collection. Using the above technical solution, water samples at different depths can be collected simultaneously as needed, while preventing other layers of water from entering the sampling hole, avoiding water sample contamination, and improving the accuracy of the test results.
[0025] In a preferred embodiment, the valve assembly 3 includes a sealing plug 31 and a tension spring rod. The sealing plug 31 is disposed in the corresponding sampling hole 11, located on the side of the corresponding piston 12 near the opening of the sampling hole 11. A fixing platform 14 is provided outside the opening of each sampling hole 11. One end of the tension spring rod is fixedly connected to the sampling rod 1 via the fixing platform 14, and the other end extends into the corresponding sampling hole 11 and is fixedly connected to the sealing plug 31. The axial direction of the tension spring rod is parallel to the axial direction of the corresponding sampling hole 11. The diameter of the sealing plug 31 is smaller than the diameter of the corresponding sampling hole 11. Each sampling hole 11 has a shoulder 112 at its opening. The diameter of the sealing plug 31 is larger than the inner diameter of the corresponding shoulder 112. The shapes of the sides of the sealing plug 31 and the shoulder 112 that are close to each other are mutually adapted. The tension spring rod has the force to pull the sealing plug 31 outward from the sampling hole 11. The shoulder 112 blocks the sealing plug 31 inside the sampling hole 11. Before entering the water, the piston 12 is close to the sealing plug 31. The shoulder 112 is tightly attached, effectively blocking the opening of the sampling hole 11. After water is introduced, the air pressure controller 2 is activated, reducing the air pressure in the air passage 13. This causes the piston 12 to move towards the vent 111. The air pressure between the piston 12 and the sealing plug 31 decreases, and the external water pressure pushes the sealing plug 31, causing it to move towards the vent 111. The sealing plug 31 separates from the shoulder 112, and can no longer block the opening of the sampling hole 11. The external water flow... The water is fed into the sampling hole 11 until the sum of the water pressure inside the sampling hole 11 and the tension of the tension spring rod is greater than the external water pressure. The tension spring rod then pulls the sealing plug 31 away from the vent 111, so that the sealing plug 31 is tightly pressed against the shoulder 112 again, and the opening of the sampling hole 11 is resealed. By adopting the above technical solution, the sealing plug 31 can be easily opened by moving the piston 12, and the water sample can be collected into the sampling hole 11. At the same time, the opening is automatically sealed after the sampling is completed.
[0026] As a preferred method, the tension spring rod is fixedly connected to the middle of the corresponding sealing plug 31, and the axial direction of the tension spring rod is collinear with the axial direction of the corresponding sampling hole 11. By adopting the above technical solution, it is possible to prevent the tension spring rod from pulling the sealing plug 31 off-center.
[0027] As a preferred method, the sealing plug 31 is made of elastic material. When the pressure difference between the sampling hole 11 and the external pressure is greater than the set value, the sealing plug 31 is squeezed out of the sampling hole 11. The air pressure controller 2 increases the air pressure in the air passage 13, causing the piston 12 to move away from the air inlet 111, thereby increasing the pressure in the sampling hole 11 and squeezing the sealing plug 31 out of the sampling hole 11. By adopting the above technical solution, the water sample can be easily taken out from the sampling hole 11.
[0028] As a preferred approach, the thickness of the middle part of the sealing plug 31 is greater than that of the surrounding area, and the side of the sealing plug 31 near the shoulder 112 is a frustum. By adopting the above technical solution, it is easy to squeeze the sealing plug 31 out of the sampling hole 11 and avoid the sealing plug 31 getting stuck in the sampling hole 11.
[0029] As a preferred embodiment, the fixed platform 14 is L-shaped. One end of the fixed platform 14 is horizontally arranged and fixedly connected to the sampling rod 1, and the other end is vertically arranged downward and fixedly connected to the tension spring rod. The piston 12 and the shoulder 112 are mutually adapted in shape on the side that is close to each other. The inner diameter of the shoulder 112 gradually increases from the inside to the outside along the corresponding sampling hole 11. By adopting the above technical solution, it is easy for the water sample to flow out completely from the sampling hole 11.
[0030] As a preferred embodiment, the tension spring rod includes a fixed rod 32, a movable rod 33, and a tension spring 34. Both the fixed rod 32 and the movable rod 33 are hollow rods. One end of the movable rod 33 is sleeved and slidably connected to one end of the fixed rod 32, and the other end is fixedly connected to the sealing plug 31. The end of the fixed rod 32 away from the sealing plug 31 is fixedly connected to the sampling rod 1 through the fixing platform 14. The tension spring 34 is located inside the hollow space between the fixed rod 32 and the movable rod 33. The diameter of the movable rod 33 is smaller than the inner diameter of the corresponding shoulder 112. With the above technical solution, the tension spring rod has a large extension range.
[0031] As a preferred method, a pressing handle 6 is also included. The pressing handle 6 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the movable rod 33. By adopting the above technical solution, after the water sample is taken out from the sampling hole 11, the sealing plug 31 can be pressed back into the sampling hole 11 by pressing the pressing handle 6.
[0032] As a preferred approach, multiple solenoid valves 4 are also included. Each solenoid valve 4 corresponds to a vent 111. The solenoid valve 4 is located in the corresponding vent 111 and is electrically connected to a power source. By adopting the above technical solution, the opening and closing of the vent 111 can be controlled by the solenoid valve 4, thereby selecting the appropriate sampling port 11 for sampling according to the situation.
[0033] As a preferred embodiment, a bellows 5 is also included. The bellows 5 is located between the pressure controller 2 and the sampling rod 1. A pressure sensor is installed inside the bellows 5. The pressure sensor is electrically connected to a power source and is connected to the pressure controller 2 via a controller signal. The two ends of the bellows 5 are respectively connected to the pressure controller 2 and the air passage 13. By adopting the above technical solution, it is convenient for the sampling rod 1 to move underwater. At the same time, the pressure sensor can accurately sense the air pressure in the bellows 5 and the air passage 13, so that the pressure controller 2 can better control the air pressure in the air passage 13.
