Obviously, the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present invention, rather than all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

In addition, the terms "mounted", "connected" and "coupled" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it may be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it may be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it may be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it may be the communication inside two components. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0024] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, the seismometer zero adjustment device of the embodiment of the present utility model includes a pendulum body bracket 1, and a zero adjustment transmission mechanism and a pendulum assembly respectively arranged on the pendulum body bracket 1.

[0025] Among them, the zero adjustment transmission mechanism includes a zero adjustment motor 2. A driving gear 3 is fixedly installed on the driving shaft of the zero adjustment motor 2. The driving gear 3 is meshed and connected with a driven gear 4. The driven gear 4 is fixedly connected with a gear shaft 5. A zero adjustment shaft 6 is sleeved outside the gear shaft 5. A quartz ball 7 is bonded to the lower end of the zero adjustment shaft 6. The quartz ball 7 is press-connected with a quartz plate 8. The quartz plate 8 is adhesively bonded to one side of a zero adjustment plate 9. The other side of the zero adjustment plate 9 is connected to the pendulum body bracket through a spring piece, and the zero adjustment plate 9 is fixedly connected to one end of a back spring 10. The other end of the back spring 10 is connected to the pendulum assembly.

[0026] During operation, the rotation of the zero adjustment motor 2 can drive the driving gear 3 to rotate. The driving gear 3 drives the driven gear 4 to rotate. The driven gear 4 drives the gear shaft 5 to rotate. The gear shaft 5 can drive the zero adjustment shaft 6 to rotate and move up and down, so as to press the quartz plate 8 through the quartz ball 7 on the zero adjustment shaft 6. The quartz plate 8 then drives the zero adjustment plate 9 to move, and changes the bending degree of the back spring 10 through the movement of the zero adjustment plate 9, so as to drive the pendulum assembly to perform zero adjustment through the back spring 10.

[0027] Among them, the movement of the zero adjustment plate 9 is based on the lever principle. Since the zero adjustment shaft 6 always bears the upward pressure from the zero adjustment plate 9, it avoids the gap that may occur during positive and negative adjustments in the process of adjusting the bending degree of the back spring by adjusting the back spring mounting shaft in the prior art, greatly increasing the zero adjustment accuracy and avoiding the problem of back-and-forth adjustment.

[0028] Since the quartz ball 7 and the quartz plate 8 are used for pressure conduction, the smoothness of the quartz material prevents stress accumulation caused by incomplete sliding. And because of the high hardness of the quartz, it avoids the slight deformation that may occur in general metals under long-term pressure, ensuring the stability of the zero point.

[0029] Thus, for the seismometer zero adjustment device according to the embodiment of the present utility model, after the seismometer is installed, the rapid zero adjustment of the seismometer can be achieved by controlling the operation of the zero adjustment motor. It is not only convenient for adjustment operation but also has high adjustment accuracy.

[0030] The seismometer zero adjustment device according to the embodiment of the present utility model is applicable to a three-component mechanical pendulum body, and the seismometer zero adjustment device of this embodiment is provided on each mechanical pendulum body.

[0031] In some embodiments of the present utility model, the pendulum assembly includes a pendulum 11 and two moving plates 12. Each moving plate 12 is fixedly connected to the pendulum 11, and the pendulum 11 is fixedly connected to the other end of the back spring 10. The pendulum 11 is mounted on the pendulum body bracket 1 through a cross spring 14, and the pendulum 11 can slightly rotate around the cross spring 14.

[0032] Among them, a fixed plate 13 is provided between the two moving plates 12. The two sides of the fixed plate 13 are respectively fixedly connected to the pendulum body bracket 1. When the back spring 10 drives the pendulum 11 to rotate around the cross spring 14 under the action of the zero adjustment plate 9, it can drive the positions of the two moving plates 12 fixed on the pendulum 11 to be shifted, so as to adjust the fixed plate 13 to be in the middle position between the two moving plates 12, thereby achieving zero adjustment. That is to say, the purpose of zero adjustment is to adjust the two moving plates 12 to have the same gap from the fixed plate 13, so that after zero adjustment, the fixed plate 13 is located in the middle of the two moving plates 12 and they do not contact each other.

[0033] Specifically, the zero adjustment motor 2 is installed on the zero adjustment motor bracket, and the zero adjustment motor bracket is installed on the pendulum body bracket 1. The zero adjustment motor bracket is provided with a threaded hole adapted to the zero adjustment shaft 6. The gear shaft 5 and the zero adjustment shaft 6 are connected by a pin shaft, and the pin shaft is fixedly connected to the gear shaft 5. That is to say, the rotation of the gear shaft 5 can drive the zero adjustment shaft 6 to rotate. The zero adjustment shaft 6 is threadedly connected to the zero adjustment motor bracket, so that the zero adjustment shaft 6 and the zero adjustment motor bracket form a lead screw-nut structure. When the zero adjustment shaft 6 rotates, it will move up and down along the threaded hole of the zero adjustment motor bracket, so as to realize the up and down movement of the zero adjustment shaft 6 while rotating. A limiting groove extending axially is also provided on the zero adjustment shaft 6, and the pin shaft and the limiting groove are slidably matched up and down to play a limiting role, so that the zero adjustment shaft 6 can move up and down along the gear shaft 5 while rotating with the gear shaft 5.

[0034] Specifically, a displacement transducer for detecting the position of the fixed pole plate 13 is provided on the moving pole plate 12. The position information of the fixed pole plate 13 can be converted into an electrical signal through the displacement transducer. Among them, a zero position detection circuit board for detecting the zero position signal of the pendulum assembly is also installed on the pendulum body bracket 1. The zero position detection circuit board is electrically connected to the displacement transducer, so as to collect the zero position signal of the mechanical pendulum after transformation in real time and upload it to the ground monitoring device.

[0035] Specifically, two limit posts 15 for restricting the moving range of the zero adjustment plate 9 are installed on the pendulum body bracket 1. Contact sensors are installed on each limit post 15. A limit circuit board 16 is also installed on the pendulum body bracket 1. The limit circuit board 16 is electrically connected to the contact sensor. When the zero adjustment plate 9 contacts one of the limit posts 15, the corresponding contact sensor is triggered. At this time, the zero adjustment motor 2 is controlled to rotate in the reverse direction, so that the zero adjustment plate 9 is separated from the limit post 15, the zero adjustment is ended, and the limit information is uploaded to the ground monitoring device.

[0036] Specifically, a motor drive circuit board is also installed on the pendulum body bracket 1. The motor drive circuit board is electrically connected to the zero adjustment motor 2. The motor drive circuit is used to amplify the driving ability of the control signal and effectively drive the normal operation of the zero adjustment motor 2.

[0037] Specifically, the ground monitoring device is provided with a central processor, and the central processor is electrically connected to the limit circuit board, the zero position detection circuit board and the motor drive circuit board respectively, so as to realize the remote zero adjustment of the seismometer zero adjustment device.

[0038] In the seismometer zero adjustment device of the embodiment of the present utility model, the control principle of the central processor is as follows:

[0039] After the seismometer is powered on, wait for 20 s. After the system is stable, the central processor controls the seismometer to switch from the long-period working mode to the short-period zero adjustment mode, so that the zero position information can respond in real time as the position of the pendulum changes. The central processor first detects the locked pendulum state of the seismometer. If it is in the locked pendulum state, the unlocking pendulum action is first performed. Then, the central processor performs corresponding processing according to the collected zero position information of the seismometer, and controls the rotation time and direction of the zero adjustment motors of the three-component mechanical pendulum body. While the zero adjustment motors are rotating, the central processor monitors the zero position information in real time. When the zero position information of the three-component mechanical pendulum body is within the zero position threshold range, the central processor controls the seismometer to switch to the long-period normal working mode, and the zero adjustment ends, so as to achieve the purpose of fast and accurate zero adjustment.

[0040] The zero adjustment device of the seismometer according to the embodiment of the present utility model can automatically complete zero adjustment after the seismometer is installed and powered on, or can remotely adjust the zero point through ground monitoring equipment. The zero point can be adjusted within plus or minus 0.5 volts through this device. When the seismometer is installed too obliquely and zero adjustment cannot be completed, this device adopts a limit structure composed of a limit circuit board 16 and a limit post 15 to avoid mechanical damage caused by over-adjustment.

[0041] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the control principle and method of the central processing unit belong to the control principle and method of the prior art, so it does not involve the improvement of the method.

[0042] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present utility model and are not intended to limit them. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present utility model.
