Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water sampling equipment technology, and in particular to a small water quality sampling device that can be carried by a remote-controlled boat. Background Technology

[0002] Water samplers are essential tools for monitoring water quality and aquatic communities in lakes, reservoirs, rivers, and aquaculture ponds. Among them, stainless steel water samplers and plexiglass water samplers are the most widely used.

[0003] Patent CN222013648U discloses a protective acrylic water sampler. This device uses protective rods and netting to block external impacts and utilizes nitrile rubber shock-absorbing pads and rings to absorb impact, reducing the impact on the tank body and internal structure. However, this design primarily focuses on external protection and still has the following significant limitations:

[0004] 1. Weight and operational burden: The acrylic material itself is already heavy, and the additional protective structure further increases the physical burden on the sampling personnel.

[0005] 2. Sampling disturbance problem: The cylindrical structure is prone to disturbing the water layer during the descent, which may result in the collected water sample not being able to accurately represent the water quality of the target water layer.

[0006] 3. Mobility and Efficiency Bottlenecks: Sampling work typically requires covering different locations and depths within the same body of water. Transporting these water samplers to and from sampling points often relies on small boats or foam floats. In scenarios with a large number of ponds, high sampling frequency, and wide distribution of sampling points, this method significantly increases manpower and material costs. Especially in windy weather, the difficulty and risk of surface operations increase significantly, further limiting sampling efficiency. Utility Model Content

After decoding the wireless digital signals, the microcontroller unit 6 obtains the key codes of remote control 27. According to the predefined control logic, it controls microcontroller unit 6 to drive geared motor 9 to rotate forward or reverse. The first pulley 10 mounted on geared motor 9 drives traction line 12 through second pulley 16 to realize the lifting and stopping of water sampler 20. When the command of remote control 27 is to descend, geared motor 9 rotates clockwise, driving water sampler 20 downward through traction line 12. As water sampler 20 descends, second ball 23 floats upward due to water pressure. Water flow continuously merges in, water tank 21 of water sampler 20 fills with water, and pushes first ball 19 upward. As the water sampler 20 descends, water will continuously flow in from the inlet 26 and out through the outlet 24, thus traversing the water layer. When the sampler 20 reaches the target water layer, pressing the pause button on the remote control 27 will cause the sampler 20 to float in the water layer and reach a stationary state. At this time, the second ball 23 and the first ball 19, under the influence of gravity, will block the inlet 26 of the sampler 20 and the upper opening 25 of the water storage tank 21, preserving the water sample from the target water layer inside the water storage tank 21. When the remote control command is to ascend, the reduction motor 9 rotates counterclockwise, driving the sampler 20 upward through the traction line 12, blocking the inlet 26 of the sampler 20 and the upper opening 25 of the water storage tank 21. Once the sampler 20 floats above the water surface, pressing the pause button on the remote control 27 completes the sampling process.
