The data transmission device 5 is used to remotely transmit the humidity data in the sealing cover 3 detected by the humidity sensor 1 to the server for the staff to view. If the pier has water seepage, the moisture will slowly diffuse from the inside of the pier to the surface of the pier, and then gradually diffuse into the air of the sealing cover 3, resulting in an increase in the air humidity inside the sealing cover 3. The humidity sensor 1 is used for monitoring. When it is found that the air humidity in the sealing cover 3 is abnormally increased, it means that the pier has a water seepage problem. Therefore, the water seepage of the pier can be monitored in real time, and the water seepage problem of the pier can be discovered in time.

[0044] In this embodiment, the two mounting seats 21 are connected together by the connecting plate 22 for easy alignment, the slot 211 is adapted to the plug block 27, and after the plug block 27 is inserted into the slot 211, it can be locked by the locking member 23, and the plurality of guide rods 26 are used for slidingly installing the sealing cover 3; when in use, the two mounting seats 21 are fixed to the pier by expansion bolts, the sealing cover 3 is slidably set on the plurality of guide rods 26, and then the two plug blocks 27 are aligned with the two slots 211 and inserted, and during the insertion process, the rebound member 24 is compressed, and the The rebound member 24 accumulates elastic potential energy, and then the two locking members 23 are used to lock the two plug blocks 27. At this time, the opening of the sealing cover 3 faces the bridge pier, and then the sealing cover 3 is pressed against the bridge pier by the tightening mechanism 4. When disassembly is required, the two locking members 23 are released, and the two rebound members 24 push the two plug blocks 27 out of the two slots 211 for a distance, disengage from the two locking members 23, and then completely pull the two plug blocks 27 out of the two slots 211. At this time, the sealing cover 3 can also be slid and removed from the multiple guide rods 26.

[0045] Furthermore, the insert block 27 has a locking groove 271; the locking member 23 includes a locking block 231, a pull rod 232, a handle 233 and a first spring 234;

At this time, the locking block 231 will squeeze the first spring 234, and the insert block 27 continues to be inserted until the locking slot 271 is aligned with the locking block 231. At this time, the first spring 234 pushes the locking block 231 to be inserted into the locking slot 271, so that the insert block 27 can be locked, and the rebound member 24 is compressed at this time; when unlocking is required, the pull rod 232 is pulled to drive the locking block 231 to disengage from the locking slot 271 and slide into the installation cavity 212, and the insert block 27 is no longer locked.

[0053] In this embodiment, the mounting sleeve 31 is used to be slidably mounted on the guide rod 26, the heat insulation cover 32 is used to isolate heat and prevent the external environment from affecting the internal ambient temperature of the mounting cover 33 as much as possible, the interior of the mounting cover 33 is used to install the humidity sensor 1 and to cover the monitoring part of the pier, and the sealing ring 34 is pressed against the pier by the mounting cover 33 to seal the gap between the mounting cover 33 and the pier to better achieve the sealing effect.

Therefore, the screw rod 41 can be rotated to make the abutment plate 42 push the sealing cover 3 so that the sealing cover 3 is tightly pressed against the bridge pier.

[0057] In the bridge surface and structure water seepage monitoring system described in this embodiment, the humidity sensor 1 is a prior art, and is equipped with a temperature compensation function inside. By integrating the temperature sensor, the ambient temperature can be monitored in real time, and the output value can be adjusted according to the relationship between temperature and humidity, thereby improving the measurement accuracy of humidity. The mounting frame mechanism 2 can be installed at the part to be monitored on the pier through a plurality of expansion bolts. The sealing cover 3 is slidably arranged on the mounting frame mechanism 2, with the opening facing the part to be monitored on the pier, covering the monitoring part, and being pressed by the pressing mechanism 4, so that the external air does not enter the sealing cover 3. The data transmission device 5 is used to remotely transmit the humidity data in the sealing cover 3 detected by the humidity sensor 1 to the server for the staff to view. If the pier has water seepage problem, the moisture will slowly diffuse from the inside of the pier to the surface of the pier, and then gradually diffuse into the air of the sealing cover 3, resulting in an increase in the air humidity inside the sealing cover 3. The humidity sensor 1 is used for monitoring. When it is found that the air humidity in the sealing cover 3 is abnormally increased, it means that the pier has a water seepage problem. Therefore, the water seepage of the pier can be monitored in real time, and the water seepage problem of the pier can be discovered in time.
