Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of surveying and mapping, in particular to a multifunctional centering rod. Background Art

[0002] The centering rod is also called the prism rod. It is mainly used to support and level the prism. It is used in conjunction with the optical distance measuring instrument to improve the measurement precision and accuracy of the optical distance measuring instrument. It has a wide range of applications in the field of surveying and mapping. When it is used, the light of the optical distance measuring instrument is irradiated onto the prism, and then the optical fiber is reflected by the prism. Then the optical distance measuring instrument measures the distance to the prism based on the reflected light; it has a wide range of applications in water conservancy surveying and mapping. In the prior art, a utility model patent with patent application number 202223576758.9 discloses a centering rod, which is mainly composed of a rod body, a lever assembly and a locking assembly. When in use, the prism is supported by the rod body, and then the rod body is moved to the position where the distance measurement is required, and then the optical distance measuring instrument is used in conjunction with the prism; the present invention believes that there are the following problems in its use. In the process of water conservancy surveying and mapping, since the surveying and mapping operations are usually carried out outdoors, when there is a lot of dust in the outdoor environment, the dust will gradually adhere to the prism at the upper end of the centering rod, which will affect the reflection of the prism to the light and affect the measurement accuracy. Therefore, during outdoor surveying and mapping operations, the staff is also required to wipe the prism at the upper end of the centering rod regularly. Relying on manual wiping not only takes up the staff's time, but also relies on manual wiping of the prism for many times during long-term outdoor surveying, which will increase the staff's labor and is inconvenient to use. Therefore, a centering rod with automatic cleaning function is needed. Utility Model Content
