Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of slope monitoring, in particular to a fiber optic sensor slope monitoring device. Background Art
[0002] Safety monitoring of slope engineering has long been an important topic in the field of geotechnical engineering. With the acceleration of urbanization and the development of natural resources, the scale and complexity of slope engineering are increasing. How to ensure the safety of slopes, timely forecast dangerous conditions, and prevent the frequent occurrence of slope disasters have become urgent issues to be solved. Therefore, it is particularly important to accurately monitor and scientifically evaluate the stability of slope engineering.
[0003] In the existing slope safety monitoring technology, fiber optic sensors are widely used in real-time monitoring of key data such as pressure, displacement and internal stress of slopes due to their high precision and high sensitivity. However, traditional fiber optic sensors have obvious limitations in practical applications. Specifically, when monitoring slopes, traditional fiber optic sensors usually need to bury fiber optic cables inside the soil layer of the slope to directly obtain the change information inside the slope. Although this method can ensure the sensitivity of monitoring, the fiber optic cables buried in the soil layer are easily corroded by factors such as chemicals and moisture in the soil, resulting in cable damage, affecting the accuracy and reliability of monitoring data. In addition, when the slope structure changes (such as landslides, collapses, etc.), the fiber optic cables buried in the soil layer are easily torn by external forces and broken, which leads to the failure of the fiber optic sensor and the inability to continue to work normally. This not only increases the maintenance cost, but may also cause interruptions or delays in the monitoring of the safety status of the slope, posing a threat to the safety and stability of the slope project. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a fiber optic sensor slope monitoring device to solve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the problems in the related technology, the utility model proposes a fiber optic sensor slope monitoring device to overcome the above technical problems existing in the existing related technology.

[0008] Furthermore, in order to realize real-time monitoring of structural changes within the slope, the monitoring mechanism includes a transmission column fixedly installed on the surface of the optical fiber cable, one side of the transmission column is fixedly connected to a support column, one end of the support column is fixedly connected to a telescopic spring, the end of the telescopic spring is fixedly connected to a transmission rod, and the transmission rod is fixedly installed inside the slope.
[0009] Furthermore, in order to fix the end of the optical fiber cable, a limiting column is fixedly connected to one side of the inner wall of the protective shell, and a hanging ring is fixedly connected to the end of the positioning block.

[0012] Furthermore, in order to achieve ventilation and air permeability in the protective shell, air holes are opened on the surface of the protective shell.

The fiber optic cable is on the outer surface of the slope together with the protective shell, and there is no need to bury it in the soil layer of the slope, which effectively prevents the fiber optic cable from being corroded and damaged after long-term use. Moreover, through the telescopic spring in the monitoring mechanism, after the internal structure of the slope changes and drives the transmission rod to shift, the telescopic spring can transmit force to the fiber optic cable through its own telescopic movement, while effectively preventing the fiber optic cable from being violently torn and broken, thereby further protecting the fiber optic cable and improving the service life of the fiber optic sensor.
