[0002] When using an inclinometer to measure foundations, concrete columns, etc. through an inclinometer tube, after completing one measurement (forward measurement, reading the measured inclination angle through the reading part of the inclinometer on the ground), it is necessary to rotate the inclinometer probe 180°, then lower it through the slide, and measure again (reverse measurement).

[0003] The existing measurement method is to manually rotate the inclinometer probe and manually lower it to a certain height. The existing problems are: a. The rotation of 180° is done manually, and the work intensity is high due to the large number of points to be measured; b. When the inclinometer is at a certain position, it is also manually lowered. On the one hand, the work intensity is high, and on the other hand, the accuracy of the descending height cannot be guaranteed; c. In most existing automatic inclinometer solutions, it is not possible to realize the reverse measurement by rotating the inclinometer probe 180°, which is different from the requirements of the current national standards. Utility Model Content

[0013] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, it also includes a docking device; the docking device is arranged between the auxiliary tube and the inclinometer tube, so that the auxiliary tube and the inclinometer tube can be docked on the same axis;

[0014] For example, the docking device includes a bearing plate and a pressure cylinder; the pressure cylinder is sleeved on the lower end of the auxiliary tube, and a plurality of rollers are installed on the bottom of the pressure cylinder along the circumferential direction; the bearing plate is provided with a central hole A, and an annular groove is provided on the upper surface of the bearing plate with the central hole A as the center of the circle; during installation: the central hole A of the bearing plate is adapted to be installed with the upper end of the inclinometer tube, the bearing plate is placed on the ground, and the roller is located in the annular groove; when the auxiliary tube rotates horizontally by degrees, the roller rolls along the annular groove, so that the lower end of the auxiliary tube and the upper end of the inclinometer tube are on the same axis;

[0015] Or for another example, the docking device includes a docking tube, a docking bearing A, and a docking bearing B; the docking bearing A is sleeved on the lower end of the auxiliary tube, and the docking bearing B is sleeved on the upper end of the inclinometer tube; the lower end of the docking tube has a tapered inner expansion opening that is small at the top and large at the bottom; after the upper end of the docking tube is adapted and installed with the outer ring of the docking bearing A, the wall of the tapered inner expansion opening at the lower end of the docking tube abuts against the outer ring of the docking bearing B.

[0018] Or for example, the support frame includes an upper plate and a lower plate; the upper plate is adapted and installed with the upper part of the auxiliary tube via an installing bearing A, and the lower plate is adapted and installed with the lower part of the auxiliary tube via an installing bearing B; a driven wheel is sleeved on the upper end of the auxiliary tube, and the driven wheel is meshed with a driving wheel of a driving mechanism, and the driving mechanism is fixed on the support frame; wherein, the upper plate is provided with an installing hole cavity, in which an installing bearing A is placed, and the installing bearing A is fixed in the installing hole cavity via a locking screw; the lower plate is provided with another installing hole cavity, in which an installing bearing B is placed, and the installing bearing B is fixed in the corresponding installing hole cavity via another locking screw.

[0019] It should be noted that the measurement method of the inclinometer probe in the inclinometer tube is a prior art for those skilled in the art (this solution is only a protective structure). The logic control performed by the control panel is a conventional common logic control, which is only used in this solution. Those skilled in the art can easily understand the control logic (so it will not be repeated).

[0020] It should be noted that the inclinometer includes an inclinometer probe that slides in the inclinometer tube and the auxiliary tube, and also includes a part for reading on the ground (this is common knowledge to those skilled in the art).

[0021] 1. Realize automated measurement;

[0022] In the existing measurement, when the inclinometer probe needs to measure the inclination angle at a certain position of the inclinometer tube, after completing one measurement (forward measurement), the inclinometer probe needs to be rotated 180°, then lowered through the slide, and measured again (reverse measurement); after two forward and reverse measurements, the accuracy of the measurement is guaranteed; the existing problems are: a. The rotation of 180° is done manually, and the work intensity is high due to the large number of points to be measured; b. When the inclinometer probe is at a certain position, it is also manually lowered, which has a high work intensity on the one hand and cannot guarantee the accuracy of the descending height on the other hand; c. In most existing automatic inclinometer solutions, it is not possible to realize the reverse measurement by rotating the inclinometer probe 180°, which is different from the requirements of the current national standards;

[0023] In this solution, through corresponding design, the auxiliary tube can automatically rotate 180°, and the inclinometer can automatically complete the forward and reverse measurement work, so as to reduce the labor intensity; in addition, the accuracy of the lower position is ensured by the marking points on the camera and the cable, so as to improve the measurement accuracy;

[0024] Second, the connection between the auxiliary pipe and the inclinometer pipe is simple, which can ensure that the connection ends are on the same axis;

[0025] In another docking device structure of the present solution, the central hole A of the bearing plate is put on the inclinometer tube, and then the auxiliary tube and the pressure cylinder are lowered together, so that the roller of the pressure cylinder is placed in the annular groove (and then the auxiliary tube is locked). The docking is very simple, convenient and quick. After docking, it can be ensured that the docking ends of the auxiliary tube and the inclinometer tube are on the same axis (which is conducive to the alignment of the slide groove A and the slide groove B, and the roller rolls down smoothly);

[0026] In a docking device structure of the present scheme, the auxiliary tube and the inclinometer tube are docked through docking bearing A, docking bearing B, and a docking tube. After the docking tube and the outer ring of the docking bearing A are adapted and installed, the tapered inner flared opening at the lower end of the docking tube can be directly pressed against the outer ring of the docking bearing B. The docking can also be very simple and quick, and after docking, it can be ensured that the docking ends of the auxiliary tube and the inclinometer tube are on the same axis.
