Detailed Implementation

[0024] Various exemplary embodiments, features, and aspects of this application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The same reference numerals in the drawings denote elements that have the same or similar functions. Although various aspects of the embodiments are shown in the drawings, they are not necessarily drawn to scale unless specifically indicated otherwise.

[0025] The term “exemplary” as used herein means “serving as an example, embodiment, or illustration.” Any embodiment illustrated herein as “exemplary” is not necessarily to be construed as superior to or better than other embodiments.

[0026] Furthermore, to better illustrate this application, numerous specific details are provided in the following detailed embodiments. Those skilled in the art should understand that this application can be implemented even without certain specific details. In some instances, methods, means, and elements well-known to those skilled in the art have not been described in detail in order to highlight the main points of this application.

[0027] Please see Figures 1-6 In this embodiment of the invention, a building settlement deformation monitoring device includes: The outer casing 1 is detachably mounted on the wall. Specifically, the outer casing 1 is provided with mounting holes, and expansion screws pass through the mounting holes to fix the outer casing 1 to the wall. An arc-shaped recessed groove 6 is formed on the side of the outer casing 1 away from the wall. A sealing door 2 for sealing the opening of the arc-shaped recessed groove 6 is also rotatably mounted on the outer casing 1 via a connecting shaft 21. The sealing door 2 is provided with a locking mechanism, which includes symmetrically arranged latching components. The latching components are adapted to the latching grooves 5 mounted on the outer casing 1. The two sets of latching components are connected to a driving component mounted on the sealing door 2. The driving component is used to drive the latching components to be inserted into or pulled out of the latching grooves 5.

[0028] The locking mechanism can fix the position of the sealing door 2, thereby effectively protecting the detection element in the arc-shaped inner groove 6. At the same time, the locking mechanism can be opened during use, and the sealing door 2 can be manually pushed to rotate 180 degrees, so that the detection element is exposed in the arc-shaped inner groove for easy detection and observation.

[0029] Of course, in order to ensure that the test results are not affected by the rotation of the sealing door 2 after it rotates 180 degrees or during testing, an elastic buckle assembly can be set on the inner side of the sealing door 2, and a limiting groove can be set on the outer shell 1. When the sealing door 2 rotates 180 degrees, the elastic buckle assembly automatically locks into the limiting groove, thereby fixing the position of the sealing door 2. When rotation is required, the elastic buckle assembly can be manually pressed. The elastic buckle assembly can be an elastic telescopic rod, with a pressing part or the like on the movable end of the elastic telescopic rod.

[0030] The aforementioned locking assembly includes two locking pins 3 that are arranged opposite to each other and slide on the sealing door 2, and a movable frame 7 that is driven to move by a driving member. Two connecting rods 4 are hinged on the movable frame 7, and the ends of the two connecting rods 4 away from the movable frame 7 are respectively hinged to the two locking pins 3. The driving member includes a bidirectional lead screw 8 that is arranged perpendicularly to the movable frame 7 and rotatably mounted on the sealing door 2. The bidirectional lead screw 8 passes through a threaded hole provided on the movable frame 7 and is threadedly connected to the threaded hole. It also includes a handwheel 10 that rotates on the sealing door 2. The shaft of the handwheel 10 is rotatably connected to the bidirectional lead screw 8 through a bevel gear set 9.

[0031] When unlocking is required, manually turn the handwheel 10. When the handwheel 10 rotates, it drives the double-acting lead screw 8 to rotate through the bevel gear set 9. The double-acting lead screw 8 drives the two movable frames 7 to move in opposite directions, thereby driving the locking pin 3 to disengage from the slot 5 through the connecting rod 4, thus unlocking. Conversely, it relocks. The bevel gear set 9 consists of two mutually perpendicular and meshing bevel gears, which play a role in the direction and transmission of force. Of course, the transmission ratio of the bevel gear set 9 is not specifically limited in this invention and can be selected according to the needs.

[0032] In this embodiment of the invention, an angle measuring mechanism and a height measuring mechanism are provided on the side of the sealing door 2 away from the locking mechanism, and the angle measuring mechanism and the height measuring mechanism form an acquisition module 100. The acquisition module 100 establishes communication with the computing system, wherein: The computing system includes a central processing unit 200 connected to the acquisition module 100. The central processing unit 200 is used to receive building tilt angle information and height measurement information sent by the acquisition module 100, calculate the settlement information of the wall based on the building tilt angle information and height measurement information, and send the settlement information to the display module 300 for display. The display module 300 mentioned here is also the display 11 installed on the sealed door 2. The display 11 can be a liquid crystal display screen.

[0033] The detected building tilt angle and height measurement information are sent to the central processing unit 200 through the set angle measuring mechanism and the height measuring mechanism. The central processing unit 200 calculates the settlement information and sends it to the display module 300 for display, thereby realizing automated measurement. The staff only needs to check the data displayed on the display module 300, which is convenient to use and greatly improves work efficiency. Of course, the display module 300 also displays the building tilt angle information measured by the angle measuring mechanism, which facilitates the staff to conduct all-round inspection of the building.

[0034] Furthermore, the central processing unit 200 includes a receiving unit, a computing unit, and a transmitting unit, wherein: The receiving unit is connected to the acquisition module 100 and is used to send the building tilt angle information and height measurement information acquired by the acquisition module 100. The calculation unit is used to receive the building tilt angle information and height measurement information, and call the pre-stored information in the storage module 400 that communicates with the calculation unit to perform calculations and obtain settlement information. The sending unit is used to send the calculation results to the display module 300 for data display.

[0035] It should be noted that the sending unit also communicates with the storage module 400 to send the obtained settlement information to the storage module 400 for storage. The storage module 400 also interacts with the cloud platform, which can remotely control the storage module 400 to obtain the current building's detection information from the storage module 400.

[0036] Because the inclination direction of the walls varies, this invention provides separate explanations for cases where the walls are inclined toward or away from the outer casing 1, as detailed below: like Figure 7 When the wall is tilted or not tilted towards the outer shell 1, the formula for calculating the settlement information is as follows: ; in, For settlement information, The initial measurement point is the height above the ground. For measuring height using a height measuring mechanism, To measure the distance from the point to the wall, The angle of inclination of the wall.

[0037] like Figure 8 When the wall is tilted or not tilted on the side away from the outer shell 1, the formula for calculating the settlement information is as follows: in, For settlement information, The initial measurement point is the height above the ground. For measuring height using a height measuring mechanism, To measure the distance from the point to the wall, The angle of inclination of the wall.

[0038] In this embodiment of the invention, the angle measuring mechanism includes an extension frame 12 fixed on the sealing door 2 and a swing needle 14 rotatably connected to the extension frame 12. A first counterweight 15 is fixed to the bottom of the swing needle 14. The mechanism also includes an angle measuring device 13 installed on the extension frame 12. The angle measuring device 13 cooperates with the swing needle 14 to measure the tilt angle of the wall.

[0039] When the wall tilts, the outer casing 1 and the sealing door 2 tilt accordingly. At this time, the swing needle 14 remains stationary in the vertical direction under the action of the first counterweight 15. Then, the angle measuring device 13 measures the angle change value of the swing needle 14 relative to the extension frame 12, thereby obtaining the tilt angle of the wall. It should be noted that a strip-shaped through groove is provided in the middle position of the extension frame 12, and the swing needle 14 passes through the strip-shaped through groove and rotates in the strip-shaped through groove.

[0040] The angle measuring device 13 described above can be an existing angle measuring device, which is a commonly used technical module, and will not be described in detail here.

[0041] The extension frame 12 is also equipped with two sensors. The sensors communicate with the central processing unit 200. By activating different sensors, the central processing unit 200 performs different calculations.

[0042] In this embodiment of the invention, the height measuring mechanism includes an unwinding roller 18 rotatably mounted on a mounting plate 16 fixed to the sealing door 2, the unwinding roller 18 being driven to rotate by a motor 17 mounted on the mounting plate 16; it also includes a second counterweight 23, on which a measuring rope 20 is fixed, the measuring rope 20 passing over a first guide wheel 22 and a second guide wheel 25 rotating on the mounting plate 16 and being fixed to the unwinding roller 18; a length measuring instrument 19 for measuring the unwinding length of the measuring rope 20 is also mounted on the mounting plate 16.

[0043] The motor 17 drives the unwinding roller 18 to rotate. At this time, the second counterweight 23 moves towards the ground under gravity, simultaneously moving the measuring rope 20. The length measuring instrument 19 measures the distance the measuring rope 20 has moved from the starting point of the second counterweight 23 to the ground, thus determining the current height of the wall. It should be noted that the distance from the measurement point to the wall is... , refers to the vertical distance between the bottom of the second counterweight 23 and the wall.

[0044] Preferably, a movable contact 24 is movably installed at the bottom of the second counterweight 23. When the movable contact 24 contacts the ground, it is restricted by the ground. After the second counterweight 23 moves a certain distance, the movable contact 24 contacts the corresponding fixed contact on the second counterweight 23. At this time, the motor 17 stops rotating, thereby realizing automatic control of the measurement.

[0045] The length measuring instrument 19 described above can be a rolling measuring device. The measuring rope 20 abuts against the roller in the rolling measuring device. When the measuring rope 20 moves relative to the roller, it drives the roller to rotate, thereby measuring the number of rotations of the roller to achieve accurate measurement.

[0046] It should be noted that a start switch is also provided on the sealed door 2. The start switch is connected to the angle measuring device 13, the motor 17 and the length measuring instrument 19, and is also connected to the battery or mains power to realize start control.

[0047] A method for monitoring settlement and deformation in building engineering, wherein the method includes using the aforementioned building engineering settlement and deformation monitoring device.

[0048] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present 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 its spirit or essential characteristics. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as exemplary and non-limiting, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within the present invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0049] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
