DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] The present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0029] In the description of the present invention, it is necessary to understand that the directions or positional relationships indicated by terms such as “upper”, “lower”, “left”, “right”, “front”, “back”, “inside” and “outside” are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description. They do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0030] In addition, the terms "horizontal", "vertical" and the like do not mean that the components are required to be absolutely horizontal or suspended, but can be slightly tilted. For example, "horizontal" only means that its direction is more horizontal than "vertical", and does not mean that the structure must be completely horizontal, but can be slightly tilted.

[0031] In the description of the present invention, it is also necessary to explain that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "disposed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection, a direct connection, or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two elements. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0032] Embodiment, a bracket for surveying and mapping, such as Figures 1 to 4As shown, the tripod 1 includes a six-degree-of-freedom platform 2 and three supporting legs 3. The supporting legs 3 are prior art and are not described in detail. The three supporting legs 3 are hinged to the lower end of the six-degree-of-freedom platform 2. The six-degree-of-freedom platform 2 includes a supporting plate 21, a mounting plate 22, a gyroscope 23, an inclination sensor 24 and six telescopic motors 25. The three supporting legs 3 are hinged to the lower end of the supporting plate 21. The lower ends of the six telescopic motors 25 are rotatably connected to the upper end of the supporting plate 21. The upper ends of the six telescopic motors 25 are rotatably connected to the lower end of the mounting plate 22. The gyroscope 23 and the inclination sensor 24 are both installed at the lower end of the mounting plate 22. The telescopic motor 25, the gyroscope 23 and the inclination sensor 24 are all electrically connected to a control panel 4. The six-degree-of-freedom platform 2 is a common device on the market. In order to facilitate control during the measurement process, a control panel 4 is added. With the help of the six-degree-of-freedom adjustment of the six-degree-of-freedom platform 2, the level of the measuring instrument can be quickly and effectively adjusted. Compared with the existing bracket, it is only necessary to stabilize the supporting legs. Of course, the height and angle of the measuring instrument can also be adjusted to facilitate measurement by the measuring personnel. The rotational connection mode of the six telescopic motors 25 with the support plate 21 and the mounting plate 22 is a Hooke's joint connection mode in this embodiment, and of course, it can also be a ball joint.

[0033] The control panel 4 is detachably mounted on the upper end of the support plate 21, and the control panel 4 is wired and electrically connected to the telescopic motor 25, the gyroscope 23 and the inclination sensor 24.

During the measurement process, the measurement personnel need to stand for a long time, which is very tiring. The storage box 5 in this embodiment can rotate the seat plate 53 backward and put it on the open end of the lower box body 51, and bend the redundant transition plate 54 upward and lean it on the vertical plate 52, so that the measurement personnel can sit on the seat plate 53 during the measurement process, which is more humane. Of course, the height of the seat plate 53 is fixed, and a suitable storage box 5 is selected according to the height of the measurement personnel, so that the measurement personnel can sit on the seat plate 53 during the measurement process without having to stand for a long time.

[0036] A first locking mechanism 8 is provided between the seat plate 53 and the lower box body 51, and a second locking mechanism 9 is provided between the seat plate 53 and the extension plate 55. Positioning holes 511 are provided at the upper end of the lower box body 51 and the lower end of the extension plate 55. Mounting holes 541 corresponding to the positioning holes 511 are provided at the upper and lower ends of the extension plate 55. Through grooves 542 are provided on the left and right sides of the extension plate 55. The first locking mechanism 8 and the second locking mechanism 9 both include a push block 91 and a slide rod 92. , the return spring 93, the slide bar 92 and the return spring 93 are both installed in the mounting hole 541, the slide bar 92 is slidably matched with the mounting hole 541, one end of the return spring 93 is connected to the slide bar 92, and the other end of the return spring 93 is connected to the bottom of the mounting hole 541, the push block 91 passes through the through slot 542 and is connected to the slide bar 92, when the return spring 93 is in a natural state, one end of the slide bar 92 away from the return spring 93 extends out of the mounting hole 541 and is inserted into the positioning hole 511. The coordinates and the extension plate 55 are fixed by the locking mechanism to keep them upright, which is convenient for installing the extension plate 55 and can also ensure the strength of the storage box 5.

[0037] A battery 10 is provided in the lower box body 51, and the battery 10 is detachably electrically connected to the control panel 4. The battery 10 can provide power for the six-degree-of-freedom platform 2 to ensure that the device can work for a long time. Of course, it can also power the measuring equipment. A plug rod 512 is provided at the lower end of the lower box body 51. For places with soft geology, the plug rod 512 can be inserted into the ground to ensure the stability of the storage box 5 and facilitate the surveyors to sit on it. Of course, the storage box 5 is only an auxiliary tool, and the whole body cannot be sat on the seat board 53, which is easy to fall and get injured. Both feet need to be on the ground for auxiliary support to ensure stable sitting.

[0038] Usage: When measuring, take the device out of the storage box 5, then install the tripod 1 on the ground, and then fix the measuring instrument on the mounting plate 22. Level the measuring instrument by operating the control panel 4. Unfold the storage box 5, and then sit on the seat plate 53 during the measurement process. After the measurement is completed, put the tripod back into the storage box 5.

[0039] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present invention and is not a limitation of the present invention. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art may make non-creative modifications to the present embodiment as needed. However, as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present invention, they are protected by the patent law.
