DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] In addition, when an element in the present invention is referred to as being "disposed on" or "disposed on" another element, it may be directly on the other element or there may be a centered element. When an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or there may be a centered element at the same time. The terms "vertical", "horizontal", "left", "right" and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to be the only embodiment.

[0030] See also Figure 1-Figure 10 In an embodiment of the present invention, an automatically retractable downhole total station support structure includes a disk body 21 and a plurality of support arm groups arranged at the bottom of the disk body 21, wherein the plurality of support arm groups are equidistantly distributed along the circumference at the bottom of the disk body 21; The automatically retractable downhole total station support structure also includes: An upper cover 22 is movably disposed on the disk body 21, and the upper cover 22 is adapted to the disk body 21 and is used to receive the measuring instrument. The upper cover 22 is connected to a height adjustment mechanism disposed on the disk body 21, and the height adjustment mechanism can drive the upper cover 22 to rise and fall on the disk body 21 to change the height of the measuring instrument; The expansion mechanism is installed on the disk body 21 and connected to the multiple groups of support arm groups. The expansion mechanism can drive the multiple groups of support arm groups to perform synchronous deflection actions.

[0031] Furthermore, in actual use, the disk body 21 is supported by multiple groups of the support arm groups, and by controlling the expansion mechanism, the expansion mechanism drives the multiple groups of the support arm groups to switch from a vertical state to an inclined state, thereby ensuring the stability of the disk body 21 supported by the multiple groups of support arms. During operation, the measuring instrument is placed on the upper cover 22. According to the user's usage requirements, the upper cover 22 can be driven to rise and fall on the disk body 21 by controlling the height adjustment mechanism, thereby realizing the height adjustment function of the measuring instrument, so that the height of the measuring instrument is moderate and the comfort during observation is ensured.

[0032] Please refer again Figure 5 and Fig.10The support arm group includes a first arm 1 rotatably mounted at the bottom of the disk body 21 and a second arm 2 slidably fitted with the first arm 1. The first arm 1 is connected to the expansion mechanism, and a telescopic limit assembly is provided between the first arm 1 and the second arm 2. The telescopic limit assembly includes a first clamping block 4 provided at one end of the first arm 1 away from the disk body 21 and two second clamping blocks 5 movably provided on the second arm 2. The first clamping block 4 cooperates with the second clamping block 5, and the cross-sections of the two are both isosceles triangles. The two second clamping blocks 5 are respectively connected to a group of elastic members installed on the second arm 2. Lugs 3 are fixedly provided on both sides of the second arm 2. The elastic member includes a guide column 6 slidably connected to the two lugs 3 and a cylindrical spring 8 sleeved on the outer periphery of the guide column 6. One end of the cylindrical spring 8 is connected to the lug 3, and the other end is connected to a boss 7 provided at the head end of the guide column 6. The second clamping block 5 is provided between the tail ends of the two guide columns 6.

[0033] Specifically, after the underground measurement work in the coal mine is completed, the expansion mechanism is first controlled to drive the first arms 1 and the second arms 2 to deflect from the inclined state to the vertical state. Subsequently, the upper cover 22 and the disk body 21 are pressed downward, and the first arm 1 slides and shrinks toward the inside of the second arm 2. During this process, the first clamping block 4 first cooperates with the second clamping block 5 located above the second arm 2 (specifically, the inclined surfaces on the two are slidably matched), causing the second clamping block 5 to give way. When the first clamping block 4 reaches the end of the stroke, it will cooperate with the second clamping block 5 located below the second arm 2. The first clamping block 4 eventually reaches below the second clamping block 5, and under the elastic force of the columnar spring 8, the inclined surfaces of the two are tightly fitted, thereby achieving a certain locking effect. Therefore, the support part of the bracket is a telescopic design. After the operation is completed, the first arm 1 can be retracted into the second arm 2, which reduces the space occupied by the bracket and facilitates transportation.

[0034] Please refer again Figure 6 , Figure 7 as well as Fig. 9 The expansion mechanism includes a first threaded drive mounted on the disk body 21 and a plurality of follower assemblies connected to the first threaded drive, and the plurality of follower assemblies are respectively connected to a plurality of first arms 1 and can drive the first arms 1 to perform a deflection action. The first threaded drive includes a first screw rod 13 rotating at the center of the disk body 21 and a first threaded sleeve 14 sleeved on the first screw rod 13 and threadedly connected to the first screw rod 13, and the plurality of follower assemblies are equidistantly distributed along the circumference of the outer circumference of the first threaded sleeve 14; The first screw rod 13 is connected to the transverse shaft 11 rotatably mounted on the disc body 21 through a bevel gear set 12 , and one end of the transverse shaft 11 away from the first screw rod 13 extends to the outside of the disc body 21 and is fixedly connected to the first rotating wheel 9 .

[0035] Specifically, the bevel gear set 12 includes a first bevel gear installed on the end of the transverse shaft 11 away from the first rotating wheel 9 and a second bevel gear installed on the first screw rod 13 , and the second bevel gear meshes with the first bevel gear.

[0036] The follower assembly includes a cross arm 16 disposed on the outer wall of the first threaded sleeve 14 and a telescopic arm 17 slidably fitted with the cross arm 16. A slider 15 is slidably provided on the first support arm 1, and one end of the telescopic arm 17 away from the first threaded sleeve 14 is hinged to the slider 15. Among them, a column 18 is provided at one end of the telescopic arm 17 close to the first threaded sleeve 14, and a strip-shaped through groove 1601 for the movement of the column 18 is provided on the cross arm 16. A limiting plate 27 is also provided at the bottom of the disk body 21, and an inclined groove 2701 adapted to the column 18 is provided on the limiting plate 27. The column 18 passes through the inclined groove 2701 and is slidably connected with the limiting plate 27.

[0037] When in use, when it is necessary to switch the plurality of first supporting arms 1 and the second supporting arms 2 from a vertical state to an inclined state to stably support the measuring instrument, the staff can rotate the horizontal axis 11 through the first rotating wheel 9, and then the horizontal axis 11 drives the first screw rod 13 to rotate through the bevel gear set 12, and the first threaded sleeve 14 and the first screw rod 13 are threadedly matched to drive the horizontal arm 16 and the telescopic arm 17 to move downward; During the downward movement of the cross arm 16 and the telescopic arm 17, the column 18 will slide with the limit plate 27 through the inclined slot 2701, so that the telescopic arm 17 extends toward the outside of the cross arm 16 and rotates relative to the slider 15, and the slider 15 drives the first support arm 1 and the second support arm 2 to swing toward the outside of the disk body 21 synchronously; Attach Figure 1 For example, in the bracket structure, the support arm groups are provided with three groups. Therefore, after the first arm 1 and the second arm 2 are deflected and opened, a support effect with good stability and balance can be formed, avoiding the problem that the bracket is disturbed or vibrated during operation, which makes it inconvenient to carry out observation operations.

[0038] Please refer again Figure 7 and Figure 8The height control mechanism includes a power assembly mounted on the disk body 21 and a plurality of second threaded driving members connected to the power assembly, wherein the second threaded driving member includes a second screw rod 24 rotatably mounted on the disk body 21 and a second threaded sleeve 25 sleeved on the second screw rod 24 and threadedly connected to the second screw rod 24, the second threaded sleeve 25 is fixedly connected to a push rod 26 slidably mounted on the disk body 21, and one end of the push rod 26 away from the second threaded sleeve 25 is fixed to the upper cover 22, and a gear 23 connected to the power assembly is provided on the second screw rod 24. The power assembly includes a bevel gear ring 20 rotatably mounted in the disk body 21, a driving wheel 19 rotatably mounted on the disk body 21 and meshing with the bevel gear ring 20, and a second rotating wheel 10 coaxially mounted with the driving wheel 19, and teeth meshing with the gear 23 are provided on the inner wall of the bevel gear ring 20.

[0039] Since different operators have different heights, different operators have different optimal heights for the measuring instruments placed on the upper cover 22 when making observations. At this time, the operator can rotate the driving wheel 19 through the second rotating wheel 10, so that the driving wheel 19 drives the bevel gear ring 20 to rotate, and the teeth on the bevel gear ring 20 drive the second screw rod 24 to rotate through the gear 23, and then, the second threaded sleeve 25 is threadedly matched with the second screw rod 24, and the second threaded sleeve 25 drives the push rod 26 to lift the upper cover 22, so as to adjust the height of the upper cover 22, which is convenient for different operators to use.

[0040] As another embodiment of the present invention, a method for folding and unfolding the automatically foldable and unfoldable downhole total station support structure is also proposed; When folding, the height control mechanism is controlled to drive the upper cover 22 to descend until the upper cover 22 is docked with the plate body 21, and then the expansion mechanism is controlled to drive the multiple support arm groups to perform synchronous deflection actions until the multiple support arm groups are switched from the inclined state to the vertical state, and then the support arm groups are retracted; When unfolding, the retracted arm group is extended, and the expansion mechanism is controlled to drive the multiple support arm groups to switch from a vertical state to an inclined state. After the placement of the measuring instrument is completed, the height of the upper cover 22 is adjusted through the height control mechanism.

[0041] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description, and it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the invention.
