Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of measuring instruments, in particular to a zenith instrument with a calibration structure. Background Art
[0002] The zenith meter is a measuring instrument that can supervise and inspect construction measurements during civil construction and equipment installation. The zenith meter is mainly used to transfer plane coordinate points up and down at the same plane position. In addition to being sent to a qualified calibration agency for calibration every year, the zenith meter used on the construction site also requires the user to perform a self-inspection of the instrument and calibrate the instrument for any deviations. The zenith meter has a large magnification, so the instrument with deviations needs to be fine-tuned during calibration, and then calibrated again after fine-tuning until it is qualified. The operation process needs to ensure a stable environment without interference.
[0003] According to a new type of portable calibration device (announcement number: CN218599346U) disclosed, when the portable tripod in the above application is placed on an outdoor cement slope, the zenith telescope is first calibrated horizontally by adjusting the length of the legs on the portable tripod. Subsequently, the pad, square frame groove, frame, square frame anti-slip pad and limit assembly cooperate with each other to make the portable tripod more stable when placed on the cement slope, and the friction between the portable tripod and the cement slope is large, so it is not easy to slide, which is conducive to the zenith telescope to measure on the cement slope.
[0004] However, in the actual use of the above equipment, the zenith instrument is a precision instrument. During the calibration process, the experimenter will inevitably collide with the calibration frame, causing the bracket for calibrating the zenith instrument to shake, damaging the balance of the support rod of the calibration frame, and reducing the precision of the zenith instrument. In view of this, we propose a zenith instrument with a calibration structure. Summary of the invention

[0011] Preferably, a circular hole is provided on the surface of the fixing plate, the diameter of the circular hole is matched with the diameter of the threaded rod, and there are three circular holes. The three circular holes are provided in a circular array on the surface of the fixing plate, which is convenient for installing three knobs.

[0012] Preferably, the maximum diameter of the annular airbag is adapted to the diameter of the movable groove, and the minimum diameter of the annular airbag is adapted to the diameter of the fixed rod. The annular airbag is sleeved on the surface of the fixed rod to buffer the movement of the support plate, thereby preventing the support plate from moving too fast, which would be detrimental to the balance of the support rod.

[0021] 3. The zenith telescope with a calibration structure is provided with a promotion mechanism. During the adjustment process of the adjustment mechanism, when the fixed nail moves downward, the fixed nail encounters some soil blocks that are difficult to insert. Under the action of the movable spring, the fixed nail moves inside the mounting block, so that the protrusion on the fixed nail moves inside the limiting groove, driving the fixed nail to rotate, so that the fixed nail can be better inserted into the ground, ensuring that the fixed nail is better fixed to the ground, and ensuring the stability of the calibration frame.

[0032] In the embodiment of the present invention, a circular hole is provided on the surface of the fixing plate 310, and the diameter of the circular hole is matched with the diameter of the threaded rod 402. There are three circular holes, and the three circular holes are provided on the surface of the fixing plate 310 in a circular array, so as to facilitate the installation of three knobs 401. The knobs 401 are adjusted from three directions, and the threaded rod 402 is moved to adjust the moving length of the fixing nail 311 to ensure the stability of the fixing nail 311 fixed to the ground. The maximum diameter of the annular airbag 304 is matched with the diameter of the moving groove 301, and the minimum diameter of the annular airbag 304 is matched with the diameter of the fixing rod 303. The annular airbag 304 is sleeved on the surface of the fixing rod 303 to play a role in the movement of the support plate 6.

The shape of the through groove is adapted to the shape of the sliding ball 308, so that the sliding ball 308 can rotate freely on the surface of the through groove, so that the support plate 6 can be better moved on the surface of the fixed plate 310 under the action of the sliding ball 308. There are three support rods 2, and the three support rods 2 are hinged to the lower surface of the calibration frame 1 in a circular array. The hinged support rod 2 can well ensure the angle of movement of the support rod 2. The support plate 6 hinged at one end of the support rod 2 ensures the stability of the calibration frame 1.
[0033] Furthermore, the diameter of the adjusting groove 403 is matched with the diameter of the adjusting ring 404, and the diameter of the adjusting groove 403 is matched with the diameter of the circular ring 406. The threaded rod 402 is moved by rotating the knob 401, driving the adjusting ring 404 and the circular ring 406 to move inside the adjusting groove 403, adjusting the length of the fixing nail 311 inserted into the ground, and ensuring the stability of the movement of the adjusted threaded rod 402 and the fixing nail 311. The diameter of the movable groove 502 is matched with the end diameter of the fixing nail 311, the protrusion 505 is circular, and the shape of the protrusion 505 is matched with the shape of the limiting groove 504. There are two groups of protrusions 505, and the two groups of protrusions 505 are fixedly installed on the arc surface of the fixing nail 311 in a circular array. The limiting groove 504 is a small section of the spiral downward arc, ensuring that the protrusion 505 can move along the limiting groove 504 to drive the fixing nail 311 to rotate. The deceleration belt 309 is composed of a plurality of semicircular convex rings, which are fixedly mounted on the surface of the fixed plate 310 in a linear array with the same center. The diameters of the plurality of semicircular convex rings increase from the center to the outside, which has a deceleration effect on the movement of the sliding ball 308. The support plate 6 moves back and forth under the action of the reset spring 302 and the annular airbag 304, so that the support plate 6 is reset, and the support plate 6 swings back and forth under the action of the sliding ball 308. The deceleration belt 309 decelerates the movement of the sliding ball 308, so that the sliding ball 308 is quickly decelerated, which facilitates the calibration frame 1 to quickly stabilize after the swing, thereby accelerating the calibration efficiency of the calibration frame 1.
[0034] There are several reset springs 302, which are fixedly installed on the arc surface of the fixing rod 303 in a circular array, and cooperate with the annular airbag 304 to ensure that the support plate 6 is impacted and drives the calibration frame 1 as a whole to deviate, thereby buffering the impact force. Secondly, the reset spring 302 and the annular airbag 304 ensure that the support plate 6 is reset, and the end of the fixing rod 303 away from the fixing plate 310 is movably installed in the movable groove 301 to ensure that the support plate 6 can move on the surface of the fixing rod 303. A friction belt is provided on the lower surface of the fixing plate 310. The diameter of the nail hole 407 is adapted to the diameter of the fixing nail 311. There are several nail holes 407, and several The nail holes 407 are arranged in a circular array on the lower surface of the fixing plate 310 to ensure that multiple groups of fixing nails 311 can be accommodated, so that the fixing nails 311 can fix the fixing plate 310 on the ground at multiple angles, further ensuring the stability of the calibration frame 1, and allowing the fixing nails 311 to be protected inside the nail holes 407. When facing some smooth ground, the fixing plate 310 is better fixed to the ground through the friction belt, and the fixing nails 311 can be stored in the nail holes 407 for protection by adjusting the knob 401. For some uneven ground, the knob 401 can be adjusted to fix the fixing nails 311 on the ground, thereby ensuring the overall stability of the calibration frame 1 and facilitating the next step of calibrating the zenith instrument.
[0035] In the present invention, when in use, the calibration frame 1 is hit, and the reset spring 302 and the annular airbag 304 are deformed when the support plate 6 moves, thereby cushioning the impact of the calibration frame 1. At the same time, the sliding ball 308 cooperates with the support plate 6 to move. Under the action of the cylindrical block 307 and the tension spring 306, the sliding ball 308 contacts the deceleration belt 309 to decelerate, thereby preventing the calibration frame 1 from swinging back and forth and affecting the accuracy of the calibration frame 1. Secondly, the fixed plate 310 is fixed to some special terrain by the fixing pin 311, and the friction belt on the fixed plate 310 is fixed to a smooth terrain to ensure the overall stability of the support rod 2, so that the calibration frame 1 can calibrate the zenith instrument more stably and with better calibration accuracy.
[0036] Secondly, turn the knob 401 to move the threaded rod 402 and drive the adjustment ring 404 to move, so that the telescopic spring 405 is deformed to facilitate the movement of the fixing nail 311 on the circular ring 406 from the inside of the nail hole 407, and insert some soft soil to better fix the fixing nail 311. Faced with different soil types, adjust the knob 401 to make the threaded rod 402 continue to move downward to ensure that the fixing nail 311 is fixed to the appropriate position, thereby ensuring the stability of the calibration frame 1 and facilitating the subsequent calibration frame 1 to adjust the accuracy of the zenith telescope.
[0037] Furthermore, when the fixing nail 311 moves downward during the adjustment of the adjustment mechanism 4, the fixing nail 311 encounters some soil blocks that are difficult to insert. Under the action of the movable spring 503, the fixing nail 311 moves inside the mounting block 501, and the protrusion 505 on the fixing nail 311 moves inside the limiting groove 504, driving the fixing nail 311 to rotate, so that the fixing nail 311 can be better inserted into the ground to ensure that the fixing nail 311 is better fixed to the ground, thereby ensuring the stability of the calibration frame 1. After the calibration frame 1 is fixed, the zenith telescope is placed on the surface of the calibration frame 1, and the zenith telescope is calibrated to ensure the accuracy of the calibrated zenith telescope.
[0038] The above generally describes the present invention in detail, but it is obvious to a person skilled in the art that some modifications or improvements can be made to the present invention. Therefore, modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
