Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of monitoring devices, and particularly to a multifunctional total station control system. Background Technique

[0002] A total station, namely a total station electronic tachometer, is a high-tech measuring instrument integrating optics, mechanics, and electronics, and is a surveying and mapping instrument system integrating functions of horizontal angle, vertical angle, distance, and height difference measurement. Compared with an optical theodolite, an electronic theodolite replaces the optical scale with an optoelectronic scanning scale and replaces the manual optical micrometer reading with automatic recording and display of readings, simplifying the angle measurement operation and avoiding the generation of reading errors. Since all the measurement work at the measuring station can be completed by installing the instrument once, it is called a total station.

[0003] Currently, total stations usually achieve measurement through on-site operation of measurement equipment by surveyors, lacking remote control and data monitoring functions, and the measurement period cannot be fully covered. At the same time, due to environmental factors such as temperature and air pressure affecting measurement data, other sensor devices are currently required to monitor environmental data and then correct the measurement data, which is rather cumbersome, increasing the work intensity and reducing the detection efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a multifunctional total station control system, which solves the problems raised in the above background technique.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solution: A multifunctional total station control system includes a main control module, a data acquisition module, a temperature and air pressure monitoring module, a communication interface module, an energy management module, and a remote control module; The communication interface module includes a serial interface unit, an I2C interface unit, a UART interface unit, an SPI interface unit, and a USB interface unit; The communication interface module provides multiple interface options, enabling different types of devices to be flexibly connected to the main control module, making the total station control system more compatible, capable of seamless connection with various external devices, and ensuring fast and stable data transmission; The data acquisition module is connected to the main control module through the serial interface unit, and the data acquisition module is used to collect the monitoring data of the total station and transmit the monitoring data to the main control module; The temperature and air pressure monitoring module is connected to the main control module through the USB interface unit. The temperature and air pressure monitoring module is used to monitor the environmental temperature and air pressure data and transmit it to the main control module. The main control module corrects the monitoring data based on the environmental temperature and air pressure data to obtain the corrected monitoring data; The energy management module is used to provide power support for the system, monitor power data, and transmit the power data to the main control module. The main control module controls the operation of the energy management module according to the power data. The energy management module is connected to the main control module through the I2C interface unit. The energy management module includes a solar unit and a mains unit. The remote control module is connected to the main control module through the UART interface unit and is used for users to remotely control the total station. The main control module is used to exchange data and transfer instructions with each module, and control the overall operation of the system.

[0006] Optionally, the remote control module includes Bluetooth and WIFI. The remote control module constructs a control platform adapted to terminal devices. The main control module sends data to the control platform through the UART interface. When in the near range, the user logs in to the control platform using the terminal device and connects to the main control module through Bluetooth. When in the far range, the control platform is connected to the network by connecting to the hotspot through WIFI, and the user logs in to the control platform using the terminal device to connect to the main control module.

[0007] By constructing the control platform, surveyors can remotely control the total station control system through the terminal device, which is convenient for centralized management of multiple surveying devices, improves the convenience of operating the total station control system, and effectively improves the detection efficiency.

[0008] Optionally, the temperature and pressure monitoring module includes a temperature sensor. The temperature sensor real-time monitors the ambient temperature and pressure data, and obtains the standard temperature and pressure data through the total station design parameters. The main control module obtains the temperature deviation characteristics by comparing and analyzing the ambient temperature and pressure data with the standard temperature and pressure data. The corrected monitoring data is obtained by compensating the monitoring data according to the temperature deviation characteristics.

[0009] The communication interface module provides multiple interface options, which can conveniently connect the temperature and pressure monitoring module to the main control module, making it an integral part of the total station, increasing the functional effect of the total station. And during use, the main control module can automatically synchronize data, and then compensate the monitoring data through the temperature and pressure data, so as to achieve the effect of real-time compensation, without the need to calculate after the monitoring is completed, saving time and improving the monitoring efficiency. Optionally, the energy management module includes a storage battery and a battery management unit. The power supply data includes the battery power data. The solar energy unit converts thermal energy into electrical energy and transmits the electrical energy to the storage battery for storage. The storage battery provides power for the system. The battery management unit monitors the battery power data, and the main control module sets a threshold for the battery power data. When the battery power is too low, the main control module controls the operation of the battery management unit. At this time, the system switches to the operation of the mains unit, and the mains power supplies the system and charges the storage battery at the same time. When the storage battery is fully charged, the mains unit stops operating.

[0010] The main control module controls the operation of the battery management unit, and then the battery management unit switches the power supply mode of the total station control system. Through the mutual cooperation of the power management module and the control module, and combined with the actual battery power data, the system can intelligently switch different power supply modes to ensure the stable operation of the total station.

[0011] Optionally, the system further includes an alarm module. The alarm module is connected to the main control module through the I2C interface unit. The main control module sets different thresholds for the monitoring data and the temperature and air pressure data respectively. When the monitoring data and the temperature and air pressure data exceed the corresponding thresholds, the main control module controls the alarm module to send an alarm message.

[0012] Optionally, the main control module includes a clock unit. The clock unit is used to set a timing task, and the total station is automatically started for a measurement task at the time interval set by the timing task.

[0013] Optionally, the main control module includes a storage unit. The storage unit is used to store the monitoring data, the temperature and air pressure data, and the system operation log for subsequent analysis.

[0014] Optionally, the main control module includes a display unit. The display unit includes a touch control screen. Through the touch control screen, the monitoring data, the environmental temperature and air pressure data, and the power supply data can be viewed, and instructions can be input through the touch control screen for interaction.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: First, the present invention provides multiple interface options through the communication interface module, which can conveniently connect the temperature and air pressure monitoring module to the main control module, making it an integral part of the total station, adding different functions to the total station, eliminating the need to carry additional sensor devices separately, reducing the work intensity. The main control module receives the environmental temperature and air pressure data and the monitoring data in real time, and compensates the monitoring data according to the environmental temperature and air pressure data to obtain the corrected monitoring data. By compensating in real time for the changes in environmental temperature and air pressure, the measurement accuracy is improved.

[0016] Second, in the present invention, the remote control module is connected to the main control module through the UART interface unit. The remote control module constructs a control platform adapted to the terminal device. The main control module sends data to the control platform through the UART interface. When in the near distance, the user uses the terminal device to log in to the control platform and connects to the main control module through Bluetooth. When in the far distance, the control platform is connected to the network by connecting to the hotspot through WIFI. The user logs in to the control platform through the terminal device connected to the network and connects to the main control module, thus realizing the remote monitoring of the total station. There is no need to operate the total station on-site for measurement, reducing the work intensity. At the same time, with the cooperation of the energy management module and the main control module, according to the monitoring of the battery power, different power supply modes are intelligently switched to ensure the stable operation of the total station control system, enabling the total station control system of the present invention to achieve full coverage of the measurement period and improving the monitoring efficiency.

[0018] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0019] Embodiment 1: Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , this embodiment provides a multi-functional total station control system, including a main control module, a data acquisition module, a temperature and pressure monitoring module, a communication interface module, an energy management module, and a remote control module; The main control module is used for data exchange and instruction transfer with each module to control the overall operation of the system; The communication interface module includes a serial interface unit, an I2C interface unit, a UART interface unit, an SPI interface unit, and a USB interface unit. The number of each interface unit is not unique and can be one or more; The data acquisition module is connected to the main control module through the serial interface unit. The data acquisition module is used for collecting the monitoring data of the total station and transmitting the monitoring data to the main control module; The temperature and pressure monitoring module is connected to the main control module through the USB interface. The temperature and pressure monitoring module is used for monitoring the environmental temperature and pressure data and transmitting it to the main control module. The main control module corrects the monitoring data based on the environmental temperature and pressure data to obtain the corrected monitoring data; The energy management module is used to provide power support for the system, monitor power data, and transmit the power data to the main control module. The main control module performs power supply switching according to the power data. The energy management module is connected to the main control module through the I2C interface unit. The energy management module includes a solar unit and a mains unit. The remote control module is connected to the main control module through the UART interface unit and is used for users to remotely control the total station. The main control module includes a display unit. The display unit includes a touch control screen. Through the touch control screen, the monitoring data, environmental temperature and pressure data, and power data can be viewed, and instructions can be input through the touch control screen for interaction.

[0020] More specifically, in this embodiment: Multiple interface options are provided through the communication interface module, which can flexibly exchange data with different types of devices, making the total station control system more compatible, capable of seamlessly connecting with various external devices, and ensuring fast and stable data transmission. The remote control module is connected to the main control module through the UART interface unit, enabling remote monitoring of the total station, eliminating the need for on-site operation of the total station for measurement, reducing the work intensity. At the same time, the energy management module includes a solar unit and a mains unit, which can provide different power supply modes for the system, ensure long-term stable operation of the system, ensure the effect of full coverage of the measurement period, and improve the monitoring efficiency.

[0021] And multiple interface options are provided through the communication interface module, which can conveniently connect the temperature and pressure monitoring module to the main control module, making it an integral part of the total station, adding different functions to the total station. When in use, data can be automatically synchronized through the main control module, eliminating the need to carry additional sensor devices and manually synchronize data, further reducing the work intensity. The main control module measures the environmental temperature and pressure data monitored by the total station through the temperature and pressure monitoring module. The main control module synchronously receives the environmental temperature and pressure data and the monitoring data, and compensates the monitoring data according to the environmental temperature and pressure data to obtain the corrected monitoring data, ensuring the accuracy of the final measurement result. By compensating for the real-time changes in environmental temperature and pressure, the measurement accuracy is improved.

[0022] Furthermore, the remote control module includes Bluetooth and WIFI. The remote control module constructs a control platform adapted to terminal devices. The main control module sends data to the control platform through the UART interface. At close range, users use the terminal device to log in to the control platform and connect to the main control module through Bluetooth. At long range, the control platform is connected to the network by connecting to the hotspot through WIFI, and users log in to the control platform through the terminal device connected to the network to connect to the main control module.

[0023] Specifically, when the device is in the close range, the surveyor can control it via Bluetooth. When it is in the long range, the surveyor can connect to the control platform via WiFi. Without having to be on-site, the surveyor can perform remote operations and monitoring through terminal devices such as mobile phones or computers, improving the convenience of the total station control system operation and the remote monitoring ability. This is especially applicable to situations where it is difficult to approach or where multiple devices need to be centrally managed, effectively improving the detection efficiency.

[0024] Furthermore, the temperature and air pressure monitoring module includes a temperature sensor. The temperature sensor monitors the ambient temperature and air pressure data in real time, and obtains the standard temperature and air pressure data from the total station design parameters. The main control module obtains the temperature deviation characteristics and air pressure deviation characteristics by comparing and analyzing the ambient temperature and air pressure data with the standard temperature and air pressure data. The corrected monitoring data is obtained by compensating the monitoring data according to the temperature deviation characteristics and air pressure deviation characteristics.

[0025] Specifically, the ambient temperature and air pressure data includes temperature values and air pressure values. The standard temperature and air pressure data includes standard temperature values and standard air pressure values. By comparing the standard temperature values and standard air pressure values with the temperature values and air pressure values, temperature deviation values and air pressure deviation values are obtained. A temperature change of 1 degree will generate a ranging error of approximately 0.95 millimeters at a distance of 1 kilometer, while an air pressure change of 1 millimeter of mercury will generate a ranging error of approximately 0.37 millimeters. By analyzing the influence of temperature and air pressure on ranging and the temperature deviation values and air pressure deviation values, the corrected monitoring data can be obtained, improving the measurement accuracy of the total station.

[0026] Moreover, both the ambient temperature and air pressure data and the monitoring data of the total station are obtained through real-time monitoring, enabling synchronous compensation and correction. If additional sensor devices are used, data synchronization is required for compensation. Therefore, by directly connecting the temperature and air pressure monitoring module to the main control module, this system saves the synchronization step and ensures the measurement accuracy.

[0027] More specifically, known coordinate points can be set as references to obtain known monitoring data, which is compared with the corrected monitoring data to verify whether the compensation effect meets the expectations. If there are large errors, the system can further adjust the compensation intensity to ensure the accuracy of the corrected monitoring data.

[0028] Furthermore, the energy management module includes a storage battery and a battery management unit. The power supply data includes the storage battery power data. The solar energy unit converts heat energy into electrical energy and transmits the electrical energy to the storage battery for storage. The storage battery provides power for the system. The battery management unit monitors and obtains the storage battery power data. The main control module sets a threshold for the storage battery power data. When the storage battery power is too low, it controls the operation of the battery management unit. At this time, it switches to the operation of the mains power unit, and the mains power supplies the system and charges the storage battery at the same time. When the storage battery is fully charged, the mains power unit stops operating.

[0029] The power supply data also includes battery status information, such as the usage time of the battery and the decay information of the maximum storage capacity. In actual use, an alarm threshold can be set separately for the battery status information and monitored in real time during the use of the storage battery. When it exceeds the alarm threshold, the measurement personnel can be reminded by the alarm module to take corresponding measures in time, such as when the usage time of the battery exceeds the designed usage time or the storage capacity of the battery is lower than the designed storage capacity range.

[0030] Specifically, the energy management module includes a solar power supply mode and a mains power supply mode. In the initial state of the system, it is the solar power supply mode. When the storage battery power is less than the power threshold, the main control module controls the operation of the battery management unit, and then through the operation of the battery management unit, the system power supply mode is switched to the mains power supply mode. When switching to the mains power supply mode, the mains power unit converts the mains power into a suitable DC voltage through a power converter to charge the storage battery to ensure the uninterrupted operation of the system. Through the mutual cooperation of the power management module and the control module and combined with the actual battery power data, the system can intelligently switch different power supply modes to ensure the stable operation of the total station and its attached equipment. When used outdoors for a long time, it no longer depends on a single power supply method, increasing the stability and reliability of the system, enabling the total station control system to achieve full coverage of the measurement period and improving the monitoring efficiency.

[0031] Furthermore, the alarm module is connected to the main control module through the I2C interface unit. The main control module sets different thresholds for the monitoring data and the temperature and air pressure data respectively. When the monitoring data and the temperature and air pressure data exceed the corresponding thresholds or the power supply data is abnormal, the main control module controls the alarm module to send out alarm information.

[0032] Specifically, when the monitoring data of the total station exceeds the set maximum or minimum angle and distance ranges, the alarm module can be triggered. The specific threshold setting depends on the environment in which the total station is applied. For example, during building construction, if the measured distance exceeds the set safety distance or the angle deviation exceeds the allowable range, the alarm will be triggered. The alarm information includes a buzzer warning, an alarm light, and sending the alarm information to the terminal device, thus enabling on-site and remote alarms and ensuring that the alarm information can promptly remind the staff, so that the total station can be adjusted in a timely manner.

[0033] Furthermore, the main control module includes a clock unit. The clock unit is used to set timing tasks, automatically start the total station for measurement tasks at the time intervals set by the timing tasks, and can also turn off the total station at a fixed time.

[0034] Specifically, in long-term engineering projects, the total station may need to collect data regularly. By setting the clock unit to start the total station for measurement work at a fixed time, manual intervention is not required, and at the same time, omission or duplication of work can be avoided, improving the practicability and convenience of the total station.

[0035] Furthermore, the main control module includes a storage unit. The storage unit is used to store monitoring data, temperature and air pressure data, and system operation logs. The system operation logs are automatically generated by the main control module according to the actual operation situation of the system.

[0036] Specifically, the storage unit provides a data backup mechanism for the system. When a device failure or system crash occurs, the data stored in the storage unit can be used to restore the system, avoiding data loss and facilitating the analysis of historical data.

[0037] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
