The utility model belongs to the technical field of calibration, and discloses a calibration device for a magnetic
compass, which comprises a calibration mechanism comprising a rotating platform for driving the magnetic
compass to rotate horizontally, a
magnet assembly, and four groups of upright guide rails which are respectively positioned on the periphery of the rotating platform, a
magnet block capable of sliding along the vertical direction of the vertical guide rail is arranged on the vertical guide rail; compared with the prior art, the magnetic
compass has the following beneficial effects that through the design of the
magnet assembly, when the magnetic compass rotates on the rotating platform, the height is adjusted by enabling the
peripheral magnet blocks to slide up and down along the vertical guide rail, so that the height of the magnetic compass can be adjusted according to the autodyne condition when the magnetic compass rotates to different directions on the rotating platform; and the
magnetic field action intensity between the magnet block and the magnetic compass is adjusted. Therefore, the autodyne of the magnetic compass can be corrected in a targeted manner, the calibration precision is improved, the operation of the sliding adjustment mode is more convenient, the time and labor cost required by calibration are reduced, and the working efficiency is improved.
