Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the technical field of water quality monitoring equipment installation structure, and relates to a probe installation device, particularly an open installation and fixing device for a chlorine probe on riverbanks. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of online monitoring of chloride levels in raw river water, shoreline monitoring stations commonly use an internal sheath structure to install and fix the chloride probe. This structure typically consists of a tubular sleeve closed at one end and a fixing bracket, with the probe sealed inside the sleeve.

[0003] In practical use, the existing structure has revealed the following obvious defects:

[0004] Firstly, the structure causes poor water flow:

[0005] The tubular, closed structure of the sheath itself obstructs water flow. In complex environments such as beaches and underwater reefs, this structure is more likely to create eddies or stagnant water zones inside the sheath, preventing timely exchange of water between the inside and outside, resulting in a significant lag in probe readings.

[0006] Secondly, the structure easily induces biological attachment:

[0007] The dark, low-flow-rate space inside the sheath provides conditions for shellfish, algae, and other organisms to attach and grow. The large amount of organisms adhering to the inner wall of the sheath and the probe body can block the water flow channel and contaminate the probe's sensing surface, directly leading to inaccurate measurements.

[0008] Third, the structure makes maintenance inconvenient:

[0009] This integrated encapsulation structure means that any inspection, cleaning, or replacement of the probe requires lifting the entire device out of the water and completely disassembling it, a time-consuming and labor-intensive process. Cleaning is particularly difficult for shellfish tightly attached to the inner wall of the casing.

[0010] Therefore, the existing sheath tube type installation structure has obvious shortcomings in terms of practicality, and there is an urgent need for a more optimized installation and fixing structure to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0011] This application provides an open-type chlorine probe installation device to solve the structural defects of existing chlorine probes installed with a closed sheath tube structure, such as internal water flow obstruction caused by the tubular structure, easy accumulation and growth of biological deposits, and complicated maintenance operations due to overall encapsulation.

[0018] In one implementation of the first aspect, the traction shackle is fixed to the lifting cable by screws or a snap-fit ​​structure.

[0019] In one implementation of the first aspect, the inner diameter of the guide ring is larger than the outer diameter of the guide cable, and the ring plane of the guide ring is spaced apart from the plane of the traction shackle in the vertical direction.

[0020] In one implementation of the first aspect, the guide ring connector is a rigid connector, such that the traction circlip, the guide ring connector, and the guide ring form a rigid positioning structure.

[0021] In one implementation of the first aspect, the connection point of the traction shackle, the guide ring, and the hoisting cable together constitutes a three-point positioning structure in a horizontal plane.

[0022] In this implementation, a three-point positioning method is used to replace the original single-point fixation, which effectively suppresses the rotation and entanglement of the probe and cable under the action of water flow, and improves the positioning stability of the probe in the horizontal direction.

[0023] In one implementation of the first aspect, the fixed base is a frame structure that can be detachably installed on the shoreline roadbed of the target water area.

[0034] The following specific examples illustrate the implementation of this application. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this application from the content disclosed in this specification. This application can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and various details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of this application. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0035] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the following embodiments are only schematic representations of the basic concept of this application. Therefore, the drawings only show the components related to this application and are not drawn according to the actual number, shape and size of the components in the actual implementation. In the actual implementation, the form, quantity and proportion of each component can be arbitrarily changed, and the layout of the components may also be more complex.

[0036] The following embodiments of this application provide an open-type chlorine probe installation device, which solves the structural defects of existing chlorine probes installed with a closed sheath tube structure, such as internal water flow obstruction caused by the tubular structure, easy accumulation and growth of biological attachments, and complicated maintenance operations due to overall encapsulation.

[0037] The following embodiments of this application provide an open-type chlorine probe installation device, which adopts a three-point positioning and guide cable combined with underwater anchor block fixing method, which significantly enhances the stability of the probe in the horizontal and vertical directions, prevents rotation and entanglement, and reduces the overall maintenance difficulty and extends the service life of the equipment. It provides a more stable, durable and easy-to-maintain installation solution for beach-type chlorine monitoring.

[0038] The principle and implementation method of an open-type chlorine probe installation device according to this embodiment will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, so that those skilled in the art can understand the open-type chlorine probe installation device of this embodiment without creative effort.

[0039] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4The diagrams shown are: a summary structural diagram of the open-type chlorine probe installation device described in this application embodiment; a structural diagram of the fixed base of the open-type chlorine probe installation device described in this application embodiment; a structural diagram of the positioning rigging of the open-type chlorine probe installation device described in this application embodiment; and a structural diagram of the traction clamp of the open-type chlorine probe installation device described in this application embodiment.

[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides an open-type chlorine probe installation device 1, comprising: a fixed base 100, a positioning rigging 200, and a traction clamp 300. The open-type chlorine probe installation device provided in this application eliminates the traditional sheath, avoiding problems such as shellfish attachment on the inner wall of the sheath and poor water flow replacement, thereby reducing measurement interference and significantly improving the accuracy and reliability of chlorine monitoring data. This open structure design simplifies the probe raising and lowering process, avoiding problems such as probe jamming and difficulty in raising caused by biological attachment in traditional sheath-type installations, and significantly reducing maintenance difficulty and workload. Specifically, the use of a three-point positioning method instead of the original single-point fixing effectively suppresses the rotation and entanglement of the probe and cable under the action of water flow, improving the positioning stability of the probe in the horizontal direction; simultaneously, the cooperation of the guide cable and the underwater positioning anchor ensures the fixed position of the probe in the vertical direction, further enhancing the overall stability and long-term reliability of the installation structure. Therefore, through the implementation of the technology of this application, the structure of the device can be simplified and the parts prone to biological attachment can be reduced, reducing equipment wear caused by biological attachment, corrosion, or structural failure, and helping to extend the service life of the probe and related components. The structure of this application reduces maintenance costs, lowers equipment failure rates, and extends the service life of the device; at the same time, the device has strong compatibility and a wide range of applications.

[0041] Please continue reading. Figure 1 and Figure 2 .

[0042] In one embodiment, the open-type chlorine probe installation device 1 includes: a fixed base 100, a positioning rigging 200, at least one set of traction clamps 300 and an underwater fixed anchor block 500.

[0043] The fixed base 100 is fixedly installed on the shore of the target water area to provide a foundation for the device to bear force and for positioning. The top of the fixed base 100 is provided with a plurality of positioning rings 400. There are no fewer than two positioning rings 400.

[0044] The fixed base 100 is a frame structure that can be detachably installed on the roadbed on the shore of the target water area.

[0045] In this embodiment, preferably, three positioning rings 400 are provided. The three positioning rings 400 on the top of the fixed base 100 are arranged in a straight line or a triangle, and the guide cable 210 can pass through the positioning rings 400. The positioning rings 400 provide a base for positioning the positioning rigging.

[0046] The positioning ring 400 can be a ring structure, or a U-shaped or V-shaped groove structure, so that the positioning rigging can pass through the positioning ring 400, thereby achieving the function of positioning the positioning rigging.

[0047] Specifically, the fixed base 100 can be welded from steel plates and its surface is hot-dip galvanized, giving it good corrosion resistance. Three positioning rings 400 are welded to the top of the fixed base 100. These three positioning rings 400, which are located on the same straight line, are evenly spaced and used to fix the positioning rigging 200 or connect other structural components.

[0048] The bottom of the fixed base 100 is welded with a fixing plate 110, which can be fixed to the concrete foundation on the bank using anchor bolts and other connecting parts. A lifting ring is provided on one side of the fixed base 100 for easy hoisting and handling. A rubber anti-slip pad is also attached to the bottom of the fixed base 100 to enhance friction with the ground and prevent slippage.

[0049] In practical applications, the structure and opening direction of the positioning ring can be adjusted according to user needs to adapt to force requirements in different directions. Moreover, the fixed base has a simple structure and is easy to install, making it suitable for various shoreline engineering scenarios such as docks, fences, and floating bridge anchoring.

[0050] Please continue reading. Figure 3 .

[0051] In one embodiment, the positioning rigging 200 includes a guide cable 210 and a lifting cable 220. The first end of the guide cable 210 is fixedly connected to an underwater anchor block 500, and the second end of the guide cable 210 is fixedly connected to the fixed base 100. The first end of the lifting cable 220 is fixedly connected to the fixed base 100. The lifting cable 220 is detachably connected to the probe for raising and lowering the probe.

[0052] The second end of the lifting cable 220 is provided with a hoisting connector 221, and the first end of the lifting cable 220 is provided with a locking mechanism 222 for fixing to the fixed base 100.

[0053] The hoisting cable 220 has at least one cable; the guide cable 210 has at least two cables. The guide cables 210 are respectively arranged on both sides of the hoisting cable 220 to balance the lateral forces generated during the hoisting process.

[0054] Specifically, it is preferable to provide one hoisting cable 220 and two guide cables 210.

[0055] The two guide cables 210 can be made of galvanized steel wire rope, which has good tensile strength and corrosion resistance. For example... Figure 3 As shown, the first end of each guide cable 210 is securely connected to the underwater anchor block 500, which is pre-submerged on the bottom of the water, via a shackle. The second end of each guide cable 210 extends upward and passes through two positioning rings 400 distributed at both ends of the top of the fixed base 100, and is then fixed to the corresponding part of the fixed base 100 by an adjustable fastener. The adjustable fastener can tighten the guide cable 210, keeping it in a straight and stable tension between the underwater anchor block 500 and the fixed base 100.

[0056] Therefore, it can be seen that the two taut guide cables 210, together with the corresponding positioning rings 400 of the lifting cable 220, form a virtual triangular guide channel. The core function of this channel is to limit the lateral swing of the probe connected to the lifting cable 220 under the impact of water flow, ensuring that the probe always moves near the predetermined vertical trajectory, greatly improving positioning accuracy and measurement stability. Preferably, a rotary joint can be provided at the connection between the guide cable 210 and the underwater fixed anchor block 500 to release the torque caused by the water flow.

[0057] Similarly, the hoisting cable 220, as the active operating cable, can be made of more flexible, wear-resistant high-strength nylon rope or steel wire rope with a plastic coating. The second end of the hoisting cable 220 can be connected to the probe's lifting ring via a waterproof quick-connect coupling or shackle. During installation or maintenance, operators can manually or with the aid of a lightweight winch raise and lower the probe by raising and lowering the hoisting cable 220.

[0058] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the lifting cable 220 extends upwards from the probe, passing through the positioning ring 400 at the top center of the fixed base 100. Once the probe descends to the target water depth, the first end of the lifting cable 220 is looped around the positioning ring 400 on the fixed base 100 and secured tightly with a self-locking connector. At this point, the entire weight of the probe and part of the water flow load are borne by the lifting cable 220 and ultimately transferred to the robust fixed base 100 via the intermediate positioning ring.

[0059] For example, in actual operation, first ensure that the two guide cables are tensioned and fixed, forming a stable guide frame. Then, operate the lifting cable to lower the probe. During the lowering process, the probe is flexibly constrained by the two guide cables, and can only descend vertically along the channel they form, effectively avoiding entanglement with the guide cables or excessive swaying. After reaching the designated depth, lock the lifting cable, and the probe is reliably suspended at the set water layer for long-term monitoring. During retrieval, release the locking device of the lifting cable, and the probe can be smoothly pulled out of the water. Therefore, this positioning rigging has a clear structure and separate functions, ensuring both the controllability and repeatability of the probe position, and making installation, debugging, and maintenance operations simple and safe.

[0060] Therefore, this structure, which combines the guide cable with the underwater positioning anchor, ensures that the probe is fixed in the vertical direction, further enhancing the overall stability and long-term reliability of this open-type chlorine probe installation device.

[0061] Therefore, the positioning rigging described in this application is a key mechanism for suspending, positioning, and retrieving underwater probes (such as chloride probes). This positioning rigging consists of two guide cables 210 and an independent lifting cable 220. The three components have clearly defined functions and work together to achieve precise vertical lifting and effective horizontal restraint of the probe.

[0062] It should be noted that, based on the technical problem to be solved in this application, the probe used is preferably an open-type chlorination probe.

[0063] Please continue reading. Figure 4 .

[0064] In one embodiment, the traction clamp 300 includes a traction shackle 310 and a guide ring 320. The traction shackle 310 is detachably fixed to the lifting cable 220 and is provided with a cable hole 330 for the probe cable to pass through. The guide ring 320 is fixedly connected to the guide cable 210 through a guide ring connector 350.

[0065] The traction circlip 310 is fixed to the hoisting cable 220 by screws or a snap-fit ​​structure.

[0066] The inner diameter of the guide ring 320 is larger than the outer diameter of the guide cable 210, and the ring plane of the guide ring 320 is spaced apart from the plane of the traction shackle 310 in the vertical direction.

[0067] The guide ring connector 350 is a rigid connector, which makes the traction circlip 310, the guide ring connector 350 and the guide ring 320 form a rigid positioning structure.

[0068] The connection point of the traction circlip 310, the guide ring 320, and the hoisting cable 220 together constitutes a three-point positioning structure in a horizontal plane.

[0069] Specifically, the traction clasp 310 is preferably a circular ring structure with a notch. This notch design facilitates the vertical insertion and fixing of the lifting cable 220 and probe cable into the corresponding lifting cable hole 340 and cable hole 330, respectively, without needing to pass the cable through from the end, thus improving assembly efficiency. This fixing method facilitates installation and position adjustment, and can accommodate lifting cables 220 of different diameters. The diameter of the cable hole 330 is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the probe cable to ensure that the probe cable can pass through smoothly. Furthermore, during the lifting of the lifting cable 220, the cable can move freely within the hole, preventing entanglement with the traction clasp 310, thereby ensuring uniform cable stress and reducing wear.

[0070] Meanwhile, the guide ring 320 adopts a split type or a ring structure with fasteners. The guide ring 320 is preferably a circular ring structure. Preferably, it is detachably fixed to the lifting cable 220 by screws. The traction shackle 310 is connected to the guide ring 320 through a guide ring connector 350, which can be made of a material with certain rigidity and corrosion resistance, such as steel reinforcement. The traction shackle 310 and the guide ring 320 maintain a certain distance in the horizontal direction, which can be set according to the stability requirements of the probe in water.

[0071] For example, in actual operation, the probe cable passes through the cable hole of the traction shackle and is finally connected to the underwater probe. The traction shackle, guide ring connector, and guide ring together form a stable spatial structure. The traction shackle provides longitudinal fixation, preventing the cable from swinging significantly in the water flow; the guide ring provides horizontal restraint for the probe and cable. More importantly, the two points formed by the traction shackle and guide ring through the guide ring connector, plus the probe's own center of gravity or counterweight, together constitute a "three-point positioning" system in the horizontal plane. This structure effectively resists the rotational torque generated by the water flow on the probe and cable, preventing them from rotating or tangling in the water, thus ensuring probe stability and reliable measurement data.

[0072] It should be noted that the number of towing clamps can be selected according to actual user needs. Furthermore, the simple structure of this towing clamp provides reliable guidance and anti-tangling for the probe cable, is structurally robust, and easy to assemble and disassemble, making it particularly suitable for long-term underwater monitoring environments.

[0073] As can be seen from the above, replacing the original single-point fixation with a three-point positioning method effectively suppresses the rotation and entanglement of the probe and cable under the action of water flow, and improves the positioning stability of the probe in the horizontal direction.

[0074] In summary, the open-type chlorine probe installation device provided in this application, through its open structural design, effectively avoids measurement errors and maintenance difficulties caused by shellfish attachment and poor water flow in traditional sheathed tubes, significantly improving monitoring accuracy and data reliability. Simultaneously, the use of a three-point positioning system combined with a guide cable and underwater anchor blocks significantly enhances the probe's stability in both horizontal and vertical directions, preventing rotation and entanglement, and overall reducing maintenance difficulty and extending equipment lifespan. This provides a more stable, durable, and easy-to-maintain installation solution for beach-type chlorine monitoring. Furthermore, the open-type chlorine probe installation device of this application has strong structural versatility, a wide range of applications, and high practical value.

Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this application.
