Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the fields of building construction and environmental monitoring, and particularly relates to a modular automatic inclinometer device. Background Art
[0002] An inclinometer is used for measuring the horizontal displacement of each soil layer inside a soil foundation or concrete. Cooperating with a flexible inclinometer tube embedded in the soil body or structure, it can be used for detecting and monitoring aspects such as the influence on various underground pipelines and buildings during the excavation of the foundation pit and pile driving in an earth dam, open-pit mine, and building construction. The original inclinometer is placed into the inclinometer tube by an operator, and the operator manually pulls the inclinometer to control the inclinometer at different horizontal levels to obtain test points and record test data. Then, the required results are obtained through formula calculation or instrument analysis. However, a large number of test points are required for a foundation pit, and the required test frequency is very high, and it may be necessary to test every day. Therefore, this kind of instrument has the disadvantages of cumbersome operation, high labor intensity, low accuracy, and large human factors.
[0003] The existing automatic inclinometer device with a fixed measurement depth is connected in a fixed order before leaving the factory and cannot change the measurement depth during use. In the actual project use process, it is very rare to ensure that two different projects require the same measurement depth. This fixed connection form has a large weight and volume, which is not conducive to transportation, installation, and secondary use. Summary of the Invention

[0008] Further, the connecting flange includes a flange pipe body for accommodating the inclinometer circuit board, a plug-in end with a female socket installed thereon, and an extension connection end for connecting with the extension pipe fitting. Second through holes for connection are provided on both the extension connection end and the plug-in end. The aperture of the extension connection end is larger than that of the flange pipe body and is adapted to the diameter of the connection end.
[0009] Further, the roller assembly includes a guide wheel fixing seat, two tension plates, two guide wheels, a pin, a fixing pin, and a torsion spring. The guide wheel fixing seat is installed on the pipe body, and moving grooves are provided at both ends of the guide wheel fixing seat.

[0023] Refer to Figures 1-5 As shown, the technical solution adopted in this specific embodiment is: a modular automated inclinometer device, which includes multiple serially connected inclinometers. The device consists of multiple serially connected inclinometers, and each inclinometer is an independent module. This design enables the device to be freely combined and expanded according to needs, adapting to different inclinometer monitoring requirements and project scales.
[0024] The inclinometer includes an extended pipe fitting 1, a connecting pipe fitting 2, a roller assembly 3 and a data collector 4. The extended pipe fitting 1 is movably connected to the connecting pipe fitting 2, and several roller assemblies 3 are respectively sleeved on the extended pipe fitting 1 and the connecting pipe fitting 2. The movable connection between the extended pipe fitting 1 and the connecting pipe fitting 2 allows the inclinometer to be adjusted and installed according to specific needs. This design permits the flexible adjustment of the length and position of the inclinometer on-site according to the actual situation to best adapt to different monitoring requirements and terrain conditions.
[0025] The data collector 4 is installed at one end of the inclinometer to ensure the timeliness and accuracy of the data, so that the user can monitor and analyze the inclinometer data in real time and take necessary measures in time. The data collector 4 includes a connecting flange 41, an inclinometer circuit board 42, a cable 43, a female socket 44 and a male head 45. They are tightly integrated together. This design effectively reduces the connection points and possible interference between components, and improves the stability and reliability of the overall system. The female socket 44 is installed at one end of the connecting flange 41 and is connected to the inclinometer circuit board 42. The inclinometer circuit board 42 is installed in the connecting flange 41 and is connected to the male head 45 installed at the end of the connecting pipe 2 through a cable 43. The connecting flange 41 is connected to the extension pipe 1.
[0026] The extension pipe 1 includes a uniaxial rotating hinge 11 for connecting to the connecting pipe 2, a pipe body 12 and a connecting end 13 for connecting to the data collector 4. The structure is simple and clear, and the installation and maintenance process is relatively simple. Whether it is installation or daily maintenance, the operation is more efficient and fast, reducing downtime and labor costs. The uniaxial rotating hinge 11 and the connecting end 13 are respectively located at the two ends of the pipe body 12, and the uniaxial rotating hinge 11 and the connecting end 13 are provided with a first through hole 14 for connection. The connecting end 13 is connected to the data collector 4 by bolts. This design ensures that the connection between the connecting pipe 2 and the data collector 4 is stable and reliable, and is not easily loosened or failed due to the influence of the external environment.
[0027] The extension pipe 1 and the connection pipe 2 have the same structure and are connected by a single-axis rotation hinge 11 to avoid measurement errors caused by tilting in a direction other than the direction to be measured.
[0028] The connecting flange 41 comprises a flange body 411 for accommodating the inclinometer circuit board 42, a plug end 412 on which a female socket 44 is installed, and an extended connecting end 413 for connecting with the extended pipe 1.

[0029] The roller assembly 3 includes a guide wheel fixing base 31, two tension plates 32, two guide wheels 33, a pin 34, a fixing pin 35 and a torsion spring 36. The guide wheel fixing base 31 is installed on the pipe body 12, and moving grooves 311 are provided at both ends of the guide wheel fixing base 31. The two tension plates 32 are respectively arranged at both ends of the guide wheel fixing base 31. One end of the tension plate 32 is hinged to the guide wheel fixing base 31 through the fixing pin 35. The torsion spring 36 is located between the tension plate 32 and the guide wheel fixing base 31 and is sleeved on the fixing pin 35. One end of the torsion spring 36 is embedded in the round hole of the guide wheel fixing base 31, and the other end is embedded in the round hole of the tension plate 32. The torsion spring 36 enables the tension plate 32 to be finely adjusted and fixed when necessary, ensuring the stability and correct tension force of the guide wheel 33 during operation. The other end of the tension plate 32 is connected to the moving groove 311 on the guide wheel fixing base 31 through the pin 34. The guide wheel 33 is located between the tension plate 32 and the guide wheel fixing base 31, and the guide wheel 33 can roll around the pin 34.
[0030] The working principle of the present utility model: Select a plurality of inclinometers according to the required monitoring depth and connect them end to end to form a modular automated inclinometer device. The connection method is to insert the female seat 44 into the male head 45, and then use bolts to pass through the first through hole 14 and the second through hole 414 to fixedly connect the flange pipe body 411 and the connection end 13 together. When connecting, each module can be connected disorderly, and the order and length can be freely combined, which is convenient for secondary use in different projects. After the connection is completed, the device can be placed into the inclinometer tube.
