The observation port 11 and the accuracy line 12 are at the same height and are respectively arranged on the front and rear end surfaces of the compass box 1; the positioning assembly 2 includes a compass 21, a slope angle detector 22, a level 23 and an adjustment assembly 24, wherein the compass 21 is fixed on the upper side of the adjustment assembly 24, the slope angle detector 22 is sleeved on the outside of the adjustment assembly 24, and the level 23 is placed horizontally on the slope angle detector 22. On the surface, both ends of the adjustment component 24 pass through the compass box 1; a tilt angle dial 13 is provided on the surface of one side of the compass box 1 close to the tilt angle detector 22, and a movable gap is provided between the tilt angle detector 22 and the adjacent surface of the compass box 1. At the same time, the tilt angle detector 22 can swing left and right when its tilt angle changes. For example, when the compass box 1 is lifted upward, the tilt angle detector 22 swings to the left, and when the compass box 1 is pressed downward, the tilt angle detector 22 swings to the right. The tilt angle detector 22 can also be set as a pointer-type device for detecting the tilt angle available on the market, and both need to be mounted outside the adjustment component 24.

[0031] A preferred technical solution: The adjustment component 24 includes a pressing and adjusting mechanism 241, a lifting mechanism 242 and an adjustment component shell 244 for fixing. The pressing and adjusting mechanism 241 and the lifting mechanism 242 are both arranged in the adjustment component shell 244; the pressing and adjusting mechanism 241 has an extending end, and the lifting mechanism 242 is provided with a fixed block 421, a rising block 422 and a pushing block 423 from left to right, and the extending end is connected to the pushing block 423. The two sides of the rising block 422 are respectively against the fixed block 421 and the pushing block 423, and the adjacent ends of the rising block 422 and the pushing block 423 are inclined and inclined toward the pressing and adjusting mechanism 241, and the fixed block 421 is fixed in the adjustment component shell 244, so that when the rising block 422 is squeezed by pushing the pushing block 423, the rising block 422 will be squeezed with the pushing block 423, and the rising block 422 will be lifted upward by the inclined surfaces of the two.

[0032] A preferred technical solution: The pressing adjustment mechanism 241 includes a pressing tube 411, a movable tube 412, a positioning bar 413 and a spring 414. One end of the pressing tube 411 passes through the compass box 1, and the other end of the pressing tube 411 is against the movable tube 412. The two ends of the spring 414 are respectively connected to the movable tube 412 and the push block 423; the positioning bar 413 is fixed to the inner wall of the adjustment component housing 244, and the surfaces of the pressing tube 411 and the movable tube 412 are provided with corresponding The sliding groove 4122, the positioning bar 413 is adapted to the sliding groove 4122; the pressing tube 411 has a serrated edge at one end facing the movable tube 412, and the movable tube 412 is provided with a corresponding engaging groove 4121, which is used to push the pressing tube 411 to squeeze the movable tube 412 to move, so that the movable tube 412 squeezes the pushing block 423 through the spring 414 to push the rising block 422 upward. In order to facilitate the explanation of the above content, the pressing tube 411, the movable tube 412 and the positioning bar 413 in the pressing adjustment mechanism 241 can be combined with the positioning bar 413 to form a serrated edge. The connection relationship and working principle between the bars 413 are considered to be the same as the working principle of the rebound pen cap of the automatic pen. By pressing the pressing tube 411, the serrated edge of the pressing tube 411 is used to squeeze the meshing groove 4121 of the movable tube 412. Under the axial rotation of the positioning bar 413 limiting the movable tube 412, the movable tube 412 will move toward the spring 414 and squeeze the pushing block 423 at the same time. When the pressing tube 411 is pressed, the edge of the meshing groove 4121 will abut against the edge of the positioning bar 413, and the positioning bar 413 and the meshing groove 4 The inclined edge of 121 drives the movable tube 412 to rotate. At this time, the positioning bar 413 abuts the left edge of the engaging groove 4121 to prevent the movable tube 412 from rebounding due to the elasticity of the spring 414. When the pressing tube 411 is pressed again, the movable tube 412 is pressed downward again. The positioning bar 413 abutting the left edge of the engaging groove 4121 will be released from the abutment state with the engaging groove 4121 as the movable tube 412 moves. Therefore, the movable tube 412 is restored, and the pushing block 423 is retracted inward, and the lifting block 422 is lowered.

[0033] A preferred technical solution: The adjustment component 24 also includes a rotation adjustment mechanism 243, which includes an adjustment rod 431 and an adjustment gear 432. One end of the adjustment rod 431 is rotatably connected to the fixed block 421, and the other end of the adjustment rod 431 passes through the compass box 1. The adjustment gear 432 is sleeved on the adjustment rod 431; an opening 442 is provided on the surface of the adjustment component housing 244 at a position corresponding to the adjustment gear 432, and the lower end of the compass 21 is provided with The meshing teeth 141 mesh with the adjusting gear 432, and the surface of the adjusting gear 432 protrudes from the opening 442 and meshes with the meshing teeth 141. When in use, the adjusting gear 432 can be driven to rotate by rotating the adjusting rod 431, and the adjusting gear 432 meshes with the meshing teeth 141 at the lower end of the direction dial 214. Therefore, when the adjusting gear 432 is rotated, the direction dial 214 will also rotate, so the angle within the compass 21 can be recorded, and the direction and position can be obtained.

[0034] A preferred technical solution: the compass box 1 has an outward-protruding clamp 14 at the inner end near the adjusting rod 431, and a component 433 is sleeved on the outer wall of the adjusting rod 431. The inner diameter of the clamp 14 is smaller than the outer diameter of the component 433. When in use, the adjusting rod 431 is pulled outward to squeeze the component 433 sleeved on the outside of the adjusting rod 431 to squeeze the clamp 14. Since the component 433 is made of rubber, it will deform after being squeezed until the component 433 passes through the clamp 14. After the component 433 passes through the clamp 14, the inclination angle detector 22 will also be fitted and fixed to the inner wall of the compass box 1 and the surface of the inclination angle dial 13, thereby recording the detected inclination angle.

[0035] A better technical solution: a threaded tube 441 is provided at a position of the adjustment component housing 244 corresponding to the center point of the compass 21, and the compass 21 is sleeved on the outside of the threaded tube 441 through a threaded connection; a rotating shaft 4221 corresponding to the threaded tube 441 is provided on the upper surface of the rising block 422, and the rotating shaft 4221 passes through the threaded tube 441 and extends into the compass 21, so that when in use, the direction dial 214 can be driven to rotate around the threaded tube 441 by rotating the adjustment gear 432. At the same time, when the rising block 422 rises, the rotating shaft 4221 will abut against the inner end surface of the transparent cover 211, thereby fixing the compass 21.

[0036] A preferred technical solution: The compass 21 includes a transparent cover 211, a magnetic needle 212, a compass housing 213 and a direction dial 214. The transparent cover 211 is covered on the compass housing 213, and the compass housing 213 is sleeved on the outside of the direction dial 214. The lower end of the compass housing 213 is fixed to the surface of the adjustment component housing 244, and a distance is provided between the direction dial 214 and the adjustment component housing 244; the magnetic needle 212 is fixed to the upper end of the rotating shaft 4221, and the rotating shaft 4221 extends out of the upper end surface of the threaded tube 441. A through hole for accommodating the threaded tube 441 is provided at the center of the direction dial 214, and the through hole is threadedly connected to the threaded tube 441. When the rising block 422 rises, the rotating shaft 4221 will abut against the inner end surface of the transparent cover 211, thereby fixing the magnetic needle 212 and preventing the magnetic needle 212 from rotating with the magnetic field.

[0037] A method for using a geological compass, comprising the following steps:

[0038] S1: Place the compass box 1 on the detection point or the surface of the object and wait for the azimuth values ​​detected by the compass 21 and the level 23 to stabilize;

[0039] S2: Observe the level 23 with the naked eye to check the value, and then press the adjustment component 24 to fix and record the value of the compass 21;

[0040] S21: Press the pressing tube 411 in the adjusting assembly 24, and use the pressing tube 411 to push the movable tube 412 and the spring 414, so that the pushing block 423 connected to the end of the spring 414 squeezes the lifting block 422, driving the lifting block 422 to rise and lift the rotating shaft 4221, so that the rotating shaft 4221 abuts against the inner end surface of the transparent cover 211 to fix the magnetic needle 212;

[0041] S22: Rotate the adjusting rod 431 to drive the adjusting gear 432 to rotate, and utilize the engagement between the adjusting gear 432 and the meshing tooth 141 to drive the direction dial 214 to rotate with the threaded tube 441 as the center point, so as to adjust the angle between the direction dial 214 and the magnetic needle 212, so as to make it more convenient to observe.

[0042] S3: Lift the compass box 1, and the observer looks through the observation port 11 and then looks at the accuracy line 12. Then, the observer swings the compass box 1 to align the accuracy line 12 with the object whose inclination angle is to be detected. The obtained value is the degree of the inclination angle of the object whose inclination angle is to be detected.

[0043] S4: Pull the adjustment rod 431 outward to fit the inclination angle detector 22 to the surface of the inclination angle dial 13. The friction between the two is used to prevent the inclination angle detector 22 from rotating, and the angle between the scale of the inclination angle dial 13 and the pointer of the inclination angle detector 22 can be recorded.

[0044] S41: Pull the adjusting rod 431, and the component 433 arranged outside the adjusting rod 431 will be squeezed and deformed by the clamp 14 on the inner wall of the compass box 1 until the component 433 passes through the clamp 14 and abuts against it. When the component 433 abuts against the clamp 14, the inclination angle detector 22 fits exactly against the inner wall of the compass box 1 and the surface of the inclination angle dial 13. The surface friction between the inner wall of the compass box 1 and the adjacent surfaces of the inclination angle detector 22 is used to prevent the inclination angle detector 22 from swinging left and right as the inclination angle changes.

[0045] A preferred technical solution: the observation port 11 and the alignment line 12 are both transparent, and the alignment line 12 is parallel to the level 23 .

[0046] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and therefore cannot be used to limit the scope of the present invention.
