Please refer to fig. 1, which is an exploded view of a water quality monitoring apparatus in an embodiment of the present application. The water quality monitoring device 100 may include, in order from top to bottom: an upper tube 110, a first connector 151 and a middle tube 120. And can reset: monitor 170 and signal transceiver module 180. As shown in fig. 1, the upper tube 110 and the middle tube 120 are connected by a first connecting member 151. The upper tube 110 has an opening at the lower end, and the middle tube 120 has openings at the upper end and the lower end, respectively. The assembled water quality monitoring device 100 is a slightly long tube.

The monitor 170 may be disposed at the lower end of the inside of the middle tube 120 and protrude out of the lower end opening of the middle tube 120, so that the lower end opening of the middle tube 120 is sealed by the monitor 170 at the same time. A portion of the monitor 170 protruding out of the lower end opening of the middle tube 120 is a main sensing portion, which contacts water flow to detect the water quality condition.

The transceiver module 180 is installed inside the upper tube 110. The transceiver module 180 is coupled to the monitor 170 by a signal transmission line (not shown) passing through the interior of the middle tube 120 and the first connector 151.

On the other hand, although not shown in fig. 1, the monitor 170 may be disposed outside the middle tube 120, and one end of the signal transmission line may be fixed to the lower end of the inside of the middle tube 120. Thus, the lower opening of the middle tube 120 can be sealed by the fixing portion of one end of the signal transmission line. And, the monitor 170 can be further hung from one end of the signal transmission line by protruding out of the lower opening of the middle tube 120. For example, the monitor 170 is a probe head connected to the end of the signal transmission line, and the distance the monitor 170 is extended may be determined by the extension of the signal transmission line.

As shown in fig. 1, a weight 160 may be disposed around the middle tube 120 near the lower end. The weight 160 allows the upper end of the water quality monitoring device 100 to float on the water surface without tilting. Furthermore, in other embodiments, the weight 160 can be disposed inside the middle tube 120, or the weight 160 can be disposed inside and outside the middle tube 120.

The second connector 153 is connected to the lower end of the lower tube 130 at the upper end.

As shown in fig. 2, the monitor 170 can be fixed at the lower end of the middle tube 120, so that the monitor 170 is installed in the middle tube 120, and the protruding sensing portion protrudes out of the middle tube 120. The protruding sensing portion of the monitor 170 can correspond to the window 132 (only one window is shown in fig. 2) on the lower tube 130. The window 132 on the lower tube 130 is designed to allow water to flow into the lower tube 130 and the water quality is detected by the sensing portion of the monitor 170. In addition, a mesh cover 134 covering the window 132 may be further included on the window 132 to prevent foreign objects from entering the lower tube 130 to cause blockage, and prevent the sensing portion from being damaged due to invasion or contamination of aquatic organisms.

The monitor 170 is used for measuring the water quality, and the monitor 170 may be equipped with a plurality of sensing units to provide various detection data, such as: a temperature sensing unit, a conductivity sensing unit (for measuring an EC value, which indicates the concentration of soluble salts in a liquid), an Oxidation-Reduction Potential sensing unit (for measuring an ORP (Oxidation-Reduction Potential), which indicates the Oxidation-Reduction capacity of an aqueous solution), a dissolved oxygen sensing unit (for measuring the content of oxygen dissolved in water), a pH sensing unit (for measuring the degree of acidity in water), and an ion-selective electrode sensing unit (an electrochemical sensor for detecting the concentration of a specified ion in a solution), wherein the monitor 170 includes one or more sensing units, and the at least one sensing unit may be selected from at least one of the sensing units.

In addition, the weight 160 can be selectively disposed in at least one of the six of the middle tube 120, the lower tube 130, the second connector 153 and the second connector 153, which is exemplarily disposed in the second connector 153.
