Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of auxiliary tools for hull measurement, and in particular, auxiliary tools for hull measurement. Background Technology
[0002] Ships are a general term for all kinds of vessels. They are means of transportation that can navigate or anchor in waterways for transport or operations, and vary in technical performance, equipment, and structural type according to different usage requirements.
[0003] A ship is a man-made means of transportation that primarily operates in water. Civilian vessels are generally called ships, military vessels are called warships, and small boats are called boats or dinghies; collectively, they are referred to as ships or naval vessels. Internally, they mainly include interior space, supporting structures, and drainage structures, and possess a propulsion system that utilizes external or internal energy sources. Their external shape is generally a streamlined envelope that helps overcome fluid resistance. Materials are constantly updated with technological advancements; early materials included natural materials such as wood, bamboo, and hemp, while modern materials primarily include steel, aluminum, fiberglass, acrylic, and various composite materials.
[0004] Currently, total stations are widely used in shipbuilding. However, in the measurement of hull sections and overall sections, due to the complexity of the working conditions, it is often necessary to carry various auxiliary measuring tools during the measurement process. These auxiliary measuring tools include: measuring tape, steel ruler, right-angle ruler, and reflective sheets for measuring points. Different auxiliary measuring tools need to be used according to different working conditions on site, and a variety of auxiliary measuring tools need to be carried to meet the measurement accuracy requirements.
[0005] During ship surveying, there are numerous structural points to be measured, and these points vary in form. Frequent changes to auxiliary measuring tools can lead to low measurement efficiency. Furthermore, the large number and small size of the auxiliary measuring tools carried increase the risk of loss. Summary of the Invention

At this time, insert the marker into the groove. According to the required marking length and the scale on the main scale, press the main scale and push the marker. The marker will be stuck in the groove, allowing the marker to easily draw a line segment of the specified length. At the same time, the slide plate can be used as an extension section for easy comparison with the scale on the main scale.
[0018] 3) Insert the first limiting rod into the first limiting hole and the second limiting rod into the second limiting hole, thus initially fixing the connecting block and the second fixing plate together. At this time, the tops of the support block and the connecting block are in contact. At the same time, pull the limiting plate outward, and the limiting plate pulls the limiting spring. After the second limiting rod passes through the second limiting hole, release the limiting plate, so that the limiting spring pushes the limiting plate back and inserts it into the limiting slot, thus fixing the connecting block and the second fixing plate together. The reverse operation can be used to untie it, achieving the effect of fixing and stabilizing the adjustment component and making it easy to open, thus achieving the effect of conveniently replacing the slide plate.

At this time, the limiting component 7 fixes the connecting block 607 and the second fixing plate 601 together, thereby fixing the round rod 606 and the guide rod 507 together. To open the connection between the round rod 606 and the guide rod 507, simply reverse the above operation.
[0040] Reference Appendix Figure 6-10 The limiting assembly 7 includes a second sliding groove 701, a limiting plate 702, a limiting spring 703, a support block 704, a first limiting rod 705, a second limiting rod 706, and a limiting slot 707.

[0041] After passing the round rod 606 through the round hole 602 and inserting the insertion rod 605 into the insertion hole 604, initial fixing is completed, connecting the round rod 606 and the guide rod 507 into one piece. After the connecting block 607 is in contact with the second fixing plate 601, the first limiting rod 705 is inserted into the first limiting hole 603, and the second limiting rod 706 is inserted into the second limiting hole 608. This initially fixes the connecting block 607 and the second fixing plate 601 together. At this time, the top ends of the support block 704 and the connecting block 607 are in contact. When the limiting plate 702 is pulled outward, the limiting plate 702 pulls the limiting spring 703. After the second limiting rod 706 passes through the second limiting hole 608, the limiting plate 702 is released, and the limiting spring 703 pushes the limiting plate 702 back and inserts it into the limiting slot 707, thereby fixing the connecting block 607 and the second fixing plate 601 together.
