Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of construction engineering monitoring, and in particular to a finger-ring type wearable vibrating string sensor fixing device and method. Background Art

[0002] In modern construction projects, accurately understanding the working status of steel bars inside concrete structures is crucial to ensuring the safety and durability of buildings. As a commonly used monitoring instrument, vibrating wire sensors can accurately measure physical quantities such as stress and strain of steel bars.

[0003] However, there are many defects in the current method of fixing the vibrating wire sensor on the steel bar: 1. Binding fixation: The vibrating wire sensor is usually tied to the steel bar with iron wire. The fastening force of this method is limited. During the concrete pouring process, the flow impact force of the concrete and the vibration, stress deformation and other conditions of the subsequent building structure during use can easily cause the sensor to shift, thereby affecting the accuracy of the monitoring data. Although the binding operation is relatively simple, it is difficult to ensure that the tightness of each binding is consistent, which will also make the installation position of the sensor on the steel bar not accurate enough, further affecting the monitoring effect. 2. Welding fixation: Welding can provide a strong connection firmness, but the welding process will cause local high temperature to the steel bar itself, thereby reducing the mechanical properties of the steel bar and affecting the overall quality of the building structure. Once the welding is completed, the position of the sensor is basically fixed. If the sensor needs to be adjusted, maintained or replaced later, the operation is extremely inconvenient, and it is often necessary to destroy the welding part again and re-weld. 3. Clamp-type fixation: The existing clamp-type fixing device structure is usually more complex and contains multiple parts. During installation, cumbersome assembly and debugging operations are required, which consumes a lot of time and manpower. This type of clamp generally has strict requirements on the specifications of steel bars, has poor versatility, and is difficult to adapt to steel bars of different diameters and shapes. When encountering steel bars of different specifications, it may not be able to achieve a stable fixation, causing the sensor to loosen or be unable to be installed. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a finger-ring type wearable vibrating string sensor fixing device and method to solve the problems existing in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a finger-ring type wearable vibrating string sensor fixing device, comprising:

[0015] A method for fixing a finger-ring type wearable vibrating string sensor, using the finger-ring type wearable vibrating string sensor fixing device, the method comprising:

[0016] S1, installing the sensor mounting seat on the inner wall of the finger ring body;

[0017] S2, fixing a fastening device to one end of the finger ring body, wherein the fastening device includes a buckle and a slot, and the buckle and the slot cooperate to fasten the finger ring body;

[0018] S3, installing a protective cover, wherein the protective cover is movably installed above the sensor mounting base and cooperates with the sensor mounting base to protect the vibrating wire sensor;

[0019] S4. Adjust the size of the finger ring body so that it can adapt to steel bars or structures of different specifications, and ensure that the vibrating wire sensor can be firmly installed on the sensor mounting base.

[0023] The present invention provides a simple and firm fixing method by combining the ring body and the fastening device. The fastening device can ensure that the fixing of the vibrating string sensor on the steel bar is more stable, avoiding the problem of sensor displacement caused by vibration, force deformation and other factors, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the monitoring data. Compared with the traditional binding fixation, welding fixation and clamp-type fixation, the present invention adopts a simpler installation method and avoids the cumbersome assembly and debugging process. The ring body can be more easily adjusted in size through the design of split bolts to adapt to steel bars or structures of different specifications, greatly improving the installation efficiency.

The transparent material protective cover design allows construction personnel to easily monitor the working status of the vibrating string sensor without the need to remove the protective cover, which is convenient for quick inspection and maintenance.
