Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of seismometers, in particular to a seismometer unlocking pendulum device which can be applied to a seismometer. Background Art

[0002] Seismometers monitor earthquake signals in real time through sensors and convert them into electrical signals for transmission to the control system for processing and analysis. By monitoring earthquake signals, seismologists and engineers can timely understand the time, location and intensity of earthquakes, providing important information for earthquake early warning and disaster prevention.

Therefore, it is necessary to restrict the swing of the pendulum in this state, that is, to lock the pendulum. When it is in use, it is necessary to release the restriction on the pendulum so that it can move freely around the reed to sense ground movement and detect earthquakes. Utility Model Content

The driving element can drive the pushing rod to extend into the suction and pressure part or retract from the suction and pressure part. When the pushing rod extends into the suction and pressure part, the liquid in the suction and pressure part can be pushed into the hydraulic bag. When the pushing rod retracts from the suction and pressure part, the liquid in the hydraulic bag can be sucked back into the suction and pressure part.
