[0025] The number of the pressure dividing plates 3 is not less than three, and the pressure dividing plates 3 are all disc-shaped structures; the lifting assembly includes a column 2 arranged in the middle of the top surface of the pressure dividing plate 3, and a cantilever cross bar 13 arranged on the side of the pedal box 1; a vertically arranged guide groove 14 is opened on the end surface of the column 2 facing the pedal box 1; a slider matched with the guide groove 14 is arranged on the protruding end of the cantilever cross bar 13. In this embodiment, a card plate structure for limiting and preventing the slider from detaching from the upper part of the guide groove is also arranged on the upper top of the guide groove 14. In this embodiment, the number of pressure dividing plates corresponding to a single pedal box is 4. It can be understood that in order to improve the convenience of actual operation of the staff, different numbers of pressure dividing plates can be used according to needs, or the installation position of the pressure dividing plate relative to the pedal box can be adjusted.

[0026] The support rod 9 is a hollow straight tube structure arranged vertically; the wire is arranged in the inner cavity of the support rod 9; the temperature measuring tip 12 includes a hollow cone head made of practical heat conductive material; the hollow cone head is installed at the bottom of the support rod 9 and a temperature sensor is arranged in the cone head.

[0027] The thickness measuring assembly includes a sleeve 7, an upper coil electromagnetic sensor 10 and a lower coil electromagnetic sensor 8; the sleeve 7 is arranged outside the support rod 9, and the sleeve 7 can move on the support rod 9 along its axial direction; the upper coil electromagnetic sensor 10 is installed on the support rod 9 and can move with the support rod; the lower coil electromagnetic sensor 8 is installed on the upper part of the sleeve 7 and is arranged opposite to the upper coil electromagnetic sensor 10.

[0028] The upper coil electromagnetic sensor 10 and the lower coil electromagnetic sensor 8 are both annular structures with a hole in the middle; an external thread section is opened in the upward part of the middle of the support rod 9, and an adjustment nut is also installed on the upper coil electromagnetic sensor 10; a length mark is also provided on the outer side wall of the support rod 9 along its vertical direction.

[0029] A pressure nozzle 11 is also provided at the lower side of the pedal box 1; one end of the pressure nozzle 11 is connected to the discharge end of the electric control water pump; the electric control water pump is controlled by the controller and is filled with marking pigment. In this embodiment, the pressure nozzle is provided on the sleeve 7, and the electric control water pump is not shown in the figure.

[0030] The controller is an integrated circuit mainboard structure based on a single chip microcomputer; it is packaged on the front cover plate 6; and the power supply is arranged inside the pedal box 1.

[0031] The pedal device in this embodiment needs to be used in pairs, and it is recommended that the measurement personnel hold a structure similar to a snow pole to assist in balance support; when using the utility model device in this embodiment, the following operating steps can be referred to;

[0032] First, before entering the measurement area, it is necessary to know the asphalt compaction coefficient and virtual paving thickness through experiments. After that, the upper coil electromagnetic sensor 10 is adjusted according to the virtual paving thickness, so that when the cross bar is at the highest position on the guide groove, the height of the upper coil electromagnetic sensor 10 from the lower coil electromagnetic sensor 8 is the same as the virtual paving thickness.

[0033] After that, the surveyor puts on the pedal device with one foot on each side and enters the measuring area; during measurement, when the surveyor steps down with force, the support disc 3 is supported on the virtual paving surface 15 of the asphalt surface layer to prevent the surveyor from falling; at this time, the cross bar 13 moves downward through the guide groove 14, and the upper coil electromagnetic sensor 10 moves downward synchronously; during this process, the temperature measuring tip 12 will continue to move downward until it contacts the road surface base, the cantilever cross bar 13 and the pedal box 1 stop moving, and the upper coil electromagnetic sensor 10 also stops moving; if the upper coil electromagnetic sensor 10 and the lower coil electromagnetic sensor 10 are in contact with each other at this time, the temperature measuring tip 12 will continue to move downward until it contacts the road surface base, and the cantilever cross bar 13 and the pedal box 1 stop moving, and the upper coil electromagnetic sensor 10 also stops moving. When the coil electromagnetic sensors 8 are in contact, the two coil electromagnetic sensors transmit the corresponding signals to the thickness indicator 5 through the control circuit arranged in the sleeve 7, and the thickness indicator 5 lights up, indicating that the thickness of the asphalt virtual paving at this location meets the design requirements; if the upper coil electromagnetic sensor 10 and the lower coil electromagnetic sensor 8 are not in contact at this time, the two coil electromagnetic sensors do not transmit signals to the thickness indicator 5, and the thickness indicator 5 will not light up. At this time, the controller controls the electric water pump to spray paint through the pressure nozzle 11 for marking, so as to facilitate subsequent operators to understand that the asphalt virtual paving thickness in this area is insufficient.

[0034] After the temperature measuring tip 12 is inserted into the asphalt, the temperature signal is input into the controller through the wire in the sleeve 7. If the temperature reaches the set temperature, the controller will control the temperature indicator 4 to light up; if the temperature does not reach the set temperature, the temperature indicator 4 will not light up, and the asphalt in this area should be scraped off and re-paved. When the surveyor lifts his foot, the crossbar 13 moves upward through the guide groove 14, and the crossbar returns to its original position for the next operation.
