Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of monitoring changes in building tilt angles, and in particular to a device for monitoring changes in building tilt angles based on double square marks. Background Art
[0002] Tilt and deformation of buildings during construction and operation are normal and permitted within certain limits. However, if the designed deformation limit is exceeded, the tilt and deformation will affect the normal use of the building and endanger its safety. Therefore, during construction and operation, it is necessary to monitor the building to understand its deformation status, deformation trends, and the relationship between deformation and deformation factors to ensure that the building remains safe.
[0003] Currently, there are two methods for monitoring changes in building tilt angles: the total station method and the three-dimensional scanning method. However, in actual applications, the total station method requires expensive equipment, a large amount of manpower, and valuable time, and is limited by observation conditions, resulting in low observation efficiency and a large number of error factors. The three-dimensional scanning method requires a high-precision scanner and a good monitoring environment, and external interference will have a significant impact on the scanning results. For real-time dynamic monitoring, both the total station method and the three-dimensional scanning method are difficult to implement. Square signs have the advantages of being simple to make, low cost, and easy to paste, and have been widely used in the field of monitoring changes in building cracks. However, there is currently no practice of using square signs to monitor changes in building tilt angles. Summary of the Invention

[0024] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a technical solution: a device for monitoring changes in building inclination angles based on double square signs, comprising a white side panel 1, a straight metal rod 2, a black square sign body 3, a black string 4, a plumb bob 5, a Y-shaped metal rod 6, a wireless transmission camera and a computer 8.
[0026] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the white side panel 1 is made of PVC sheet material, and the white side panel 1 is fixed to the side of the monitored building by bolts at its four corners. A straight metal rod 2 is provided in the center of the top of the white side panel 1, and the straight metal rod 2 is vertically fixed to the white side panel 1. The straight metal rod 2 is a hollow cylindrical shape, and a ring 61 is provided at the top of the Y-shaped metal rod 6, which is fixed to the end of the straight metal rod 2 by a fixing bolt 62.
[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, one end of the straight metal rod 2 is tied with a black rope 4 perpendicular to the horizontal plane, the bottom of the black rope 4 is tied with a plumb bob 5, and a black square sign 3 is pasted on both sides of the black rope 4. The side length of the black square sign 3 is 20-25 mm.
[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the end of the straight metal rod 2 away from the black rope 4 is fixedly connected to a Y-shaped metal rod 6, and the bottom of the Y-shaped metal rod 6 is fixedly connected to a wireless transmission camera 7. The lens direction of the wireless transmission camera 7 is perpendicular to the white side panel 1, and the signal output end of the wireless transmission camera 7 is electrically connected to the signal input end of the computer 8.
[0029] like Figure 3-5As shown, the computer 8 uses MATLAB software to perform grayscale conversion, binarization, morphology, noise removal, region segmentation and pixel calibration on the acquired image to obtain the building tilt angle change value at each monitoring moment.
[0030] The pixel of the wireless transmission camera 7 is not less than 10 million, and the distance H between the lens and the white side panel 1 satisfies the formula:
[0031] H≤0.02m*f / (10*a) (1)
[0032] 0.02m is the side length of the black square sign 3, f is the focal length of the camera lens, in mm; a is the camera pixel size, in mm, and the black square sign 3 and the black rope 4 photographed by the wireless transmission camera 7 are clear.
[0033] When using, Figure 3 As shown, first install the white side panel 1 on the surface of the monitored building, paste two black square signs 3 on both sides of the black rope 4, then install and debug the wireless transmission camera 7. The time when the wireless transmission camera 7 takes the first image after installation is recorded as time t0. Use the wireless transmission camera 7 to obtain the image of the black square sign 3 and the black rope 4 at time t0, as shown in the figure below. Figure 4 a, and transmit the image to the computer 9.
[0034] Computer 9 uses MATLAB software to perform image grayscale, binarization, morphology, elimination of isolated points or blocks, region segmentation and pixel calibration. After the image is processed, each pixel value is as follows: Figure 5 As shown, the pixel value in the black square marker 3 area on the left is 1, the pixel value in the black string 4 area is 2, and the pixel value in the black square marker 3 area on the right is 3. Based on the distribution of each area, the coordinates of the four corner points of a single black square marker 3 can be calculated, and then the perimeter Z of a single black square marker 3 can be obtained. The actual length of a single pixel in the image is θ = 8*20mm / (2*Z). The distance between point 1C and point 2A does not change with the tilt of the building. The actual distance is a constant value Ds1C2A, Ds1C2A is
[0035]
[0036] like Figure 4 As shown in d, line segment 2AE0⊥line segment HG0, line segment 1CG0⊥line segment HG0, the length of line segment 2AE0 and the length of line segment 1CG0 can be obtained by calculating the distance from the point to the straight line, which are Ds2AE0 and Ds1CG0 respectively. The right triangle G01CF0 is similar to the right triangle E02AF0, so
[0037]
[0038] Ds2AF0=Ds1C2A-Ds1CF0 (4)
[0039] The value of Ds1CF0 can be calculated. Then the value of ∠G01CF0 at time t0 is:
[0040]
[0041] The wireless transmission camera 7 obtains the image of the black square sign 3 and the black string 4 every 1 second. At time tn, the wireless transmission camera 7 obtains the image of the black square sign 3 and the black string 4 as shown in FIG4b. Figure 4 c shows the projection position of the black string 4 on the white side panel 1 at time t0 and time tn, and ∠GnHG0 is the change in the building's tilt angle from time t0 to time tn. According to the principle of similarity of right triangles, we know that
[0042] ∠Gn1CG0=∠GnHG0=∠Gn1CFn-∠G01CF0 (6).
[0043] In summary, the device for monitoring changes in building tilt angles based on double square marks has a simple structure, is easy to use, and has low cost. It realizes automatic and real-time monitoring of changes in building tilt angles and has the advantages of high sensitivity and fast response speed.
