The invention discloses a movable water inlet with a head positioned by adopting an upright post and a
buoy. The movable water inlet comprises a pipeline
system, a
positioning system, a
buoy system and a tunnel plugging section, wherein the pipeline
system comprises a water taking head, a floating
pipe and a
flange joint, and is a main
water delivery structure for extending the water inlet to a reservoir for taking water; the
positioning system is positioned at the front end of the pipeline system, comprises the upright post, a cast-in-place
pile, an upright post expansion foundation, an O-shaped steel
buoy, a
steel frame and a positioning wheel, and is used for fixing the water taking head at the front end of the pipeline system on a plane and at an elevation; the buoy system comprises the buoy, a steel
wire rope and a balancing weight, and is used for fixing the floating
pipe at a certain depth below the water surface; and the tunnel plugging section is positioned at the
tail end ofthe pipeline system, is a water retaining structure, and is also an overflowing channel for water in the pipeline system to flow to a downstream
water delivery tunnel along a built-in fixed pipeline of the tunnel plugging section. The movable water inlet has the advantages of flexible water taking point and water taking elevation, good
wind wave resistance of a
system structure, high automatic degree along with
water level rise and fall, and suitability for
water diversion and supply projects with high requirements on
water quality.
