Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of deviation monitoring, and particularly relates to a bridge pier top deviation monitoring device and a monitoring method. BACKGROUND

[0002] During the operation of a bridge, uneven settlement of the foundation under the action of a huge vertical load can occur, resulting in inclination of the foundation. In addition, under the combined action of the downward force caused by the self weight of the superstructure, the frictional resistance of the support, the temperature effect, the braking force of the vehicle, etc., the pier body can produce elastic deformation. The inclination of the foundation and the elastic deformation of the pier body jointly cause the deviation of the pier top, affecting the safety of the bridge in use. In order to ensure the normal operation of the bridge, it is necessary to monitor and early warn the deviation of the pier top in real time. The deviation mechanisms caused by the two reasons are different, and the treatment methods when rectifying are also different. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor the two deviation components separately.

[0003] The existing monitoring methods include total station, displacement meter and GPS / Beidou positioning instrument. However, the conventional total station monitoring needs manual measurement, the monitoring process is tedious, the labor consumption is large, and it is difficult to realize long-term and real-time monitoring. The GPS / Beidou positioning instrument can realize long-term and real-time monitoring, but has problems of high cost and insufficient accuracy. The plumb meter and the displacement meter are contact measurement methods, which are placed on the pier for monitoring, but have high installation requirements, high maintenance cost and can only measure one-way deformation. In addition, the above monitoring methods are mostly for measuring the total deviation of the pier top, and it is difficult to obtain different pier top deviation components.

Specifically, by using the first distance measuring plate 2, the second distance measuring plate 3, the third distance measuring plate 4 in combination with the first distance measuring element 18, the second distance measuring element 19 and the third distance measuring element 20, the offset angle can also be obtained by measuring the distance.

[0028] In fact, the distance measuring directions of the first distance measuring element 18, the second distance measuring element 19 and the third distance measuring element 20 on the surface of the equipment integrated box 1 are located in the same vertical plane, and the first distance measuring element 18, the second distance measuring element 19 and the third distance measuring element 20 are located on the outer side wall of the accommodating portion 121.

[0029] Specifically, the second distance measuring element 19 is installed in the second mounting hole 6 which is arranged at the geometric center position of the bottom of the opening of the accommodating portion 121, and the second distance measuring element 19 measures the distance in the vertical direction along the direction of gravity; the first distance measuring element 18 is installed in the first mounting hole 5 which is arranged at the geometric center of the right side wall of the accommodating portion 121, and the first distance measuring element 18 measures the distance in the horizontal direction.

[0032] Specifically, the first distance plate 2 is located on the bent cap 10 of the bridge pier 9 to be monitored, and the first distance plate 2 is located on the peripheral side of the equipment integrated box 1, and in addition, the first distance plate 2 is a straight-angled bent plate; the second distance plate 3 and the third distance plate 4 are located on the installation structure surface of the bridge pier 9 to be monitored, and the distance between the second distance plate 3 and the third distance plate 4 is equal to the diameter of the bridge pier 9 to be monitored, and in addition, the second distance plate 3 is a straight plate, the third distance plate 4 is a bent plate, and the bent angle of the third distance plate 4 is related to the deflection angle formed by the first direction in the gravity direction.

[0033] In fact, by cooperating the first distance plate 2, the second distance plate 3, and the third distance plate 4 with the first distance measuring piece 18, the second distance measuring piece 19, and the third distance measuring piece 20, the deflection degree of the pier top of the bridge pier 9 to be monitored caused by foundation inclination and pier deformation in the use process can be known, and in turn, it is beneficial for the pier maintenance personnel to know quickly and repair in time. Specifically, the first distance plate 2, the second distance plate 3, and the third distance plate 4 can all be made of metal materials.

[0035] In some embodiments, a data transmission module 14 and an antenna 15 are also integrated in the equipment integrated box 1, the data transmission module 14 is in communication connection with the data analysis module 13, and in turn, when the data analysis module 13 completes the calculation of the deflection amount of the pier top, the calculation result can be sent to the bridge pier maintenance personnel by using the data transmission module 14 and the antenna 15, and in turn, the maintenance personnel can monitor the condition of the bridge pier. Specifically, the antenna 15 can be arranged on the outside of the equipment integrated box 1 to improve the signal transmission capability of the antenna 15.

[0036] In some embodiments, a battery 16 and a solar panel 17 are also arranged in the equipment integrated box 1, the solar panel 17 is arranged on the top of the equipment integrated box 1, and can be used for photoelectric conversion under illumination and energy storage of the battery 16, so as to improve the overall endurance capability of the monitoring device, and in addition, the battery 16 is arranged inside the equipment integrated box 1 and is used for energy supply of the data analysis module 13, the first distance measuring piece 18, the second distance measuring piece 19, and the third distance measuring piece 20.

Specifically, the warning processor is in signal connection with the data transmission module 14, so as to transmit the warning signal through the data transmission module 14 and the antenna 15.

[0038] In fact, when the monitoring device is installed on the to-be-monitored pier 9, the deflection angle is calculated in advance according to the height and diameter of the to-be-monitored pier 9, and then the bending angle of the third distance board 4 is set. Specifically, the height of the to-be-monitored pier 9 is based on the part above the installation structure surface (the distance between the second distance piece 19 and the second distance board 3).

[0039] In some embodiments, when the first distance board 2, the second distance board 3 and the third distance board 4 are installed, the first distance board 2, the second distance board 3 and the third distance board 4 can be installed on the bent cap 10 and the installation structure surface of the to-be-monitored pier 9 by using expansion bolts, so as to realize the fixed installation of the first distance board 2, the second distance board 3 and the third distance board 4.

[0041] ;

[0042] ;

[0043] ;

[0044] ;

[0045] ;

[0046] ;

[0047] wherein, is the inclination angle of the to-be-monitored pier 9, is the angle between the straight line formed by the second distance measuring element 19 and the second distance measuring plate 3 and the horizontal plane, is the angle of displacement of the monitored pier 9 due to elastic deformation, is the angle between the straight line formed by the second distance measuring element 19 and the second distance measuring plate 3 and the plane of the bent cap.

[0048] In fact, when calculating the displacement of the pier top, the angle of inclination and displacement of the pier top is not significant, so the height and diameter of the monitored pier 9 can be regarded as constant values, and the monitoring device installed at the bent cap 10 of the monitored pier 9 will continuously displace with the inclination and deformation of the monitored pier 9, but the first distance measuring element 18, the second distance measuring element 19, and the third distance measuring element 20 can still cooperate with the first distance measuring plate 2, the second distance measuring plate 3, and the third distance measuring plate 4 to determine the position and angle of displacement.

However, it should be understood that such modifications and changes are within the scope and spirit of the present application as described in the claims. Moreover, the present application described herein can have other embodiments and can be implemented or realized in various ways.
