Such repetition is for the purpose of simplicity and clarity and does not in itself indicate the relationship between the various embodiments and / or settings discussed.
[0033] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0034] Example 1
[0035] See Figure 1-Figure 3 , this embodiment discloses a rangefinder calibration device, including a laser rangefinder, a mounting plate 102 and a distance measuring mechanism 103, wherein the mounting plate 102 is provided with a clamping mechanism 104 for clamping the laser rangefinder;
[0036] The distance measuring mechanism 103 includes a moving plate 105 and a feedback plate 101. The moving plate 105 is slidably mounted in the mounting plate 102. A limiting groove 107 is provided on the moving plate 105. The mounting plate 102 is connected to a connecting block 108. A limiting mechanism 109 is slidably mounted on the connecting block 108 for cooperating with the limiting groove 107 to limit the moving plate 105.
[0037] A positioning plate 110 is installed at one end of the mounting plate 102 away from the connecting block 108 , and the feedback plate 101 is fixedly connected to one end of the moving plate 105 away from the positioning plate 110 . The feedback plate 101 and the positioning plate 110 are arranged correspondingly, and a scale line is set on the moving plate 105 .
[0038] In the present invention, a laser rangefinder is provided with a laser rangefinder lamp, a movable groove is provided on the mounting plate 102, and the movable plate 105 is slidably installed in the movable groove; when the laser rangefinder needs to be calibrated, the laser rangefinder is first placed in the limiting area formed between the clamping mechanisms 104, and the laser rangefinder is moved so that the laser rangefinder lamp moves to a position corresponding to the positioning plate 110, and then the laser rangefinder can be clamped and fixed by the clamping mechanism 104. By setting the positioning plate 110, it can be ensured that the laser rangefinder lamp is set correspondingly to the feedback plate 101, thereby preventing the laser rangefinder from offsetting. After the clamping mechanism 104 clamps the laser rangefinder, the movable plate 105 is pulled to move the movable plate 105 toward the end away from the positioning plate 110; during the movement of the movable plate 105, the limiting mechanism 109 slidably mounted on the connecting block 108 cooperates with the sliding groove 116 provided on the movable plate 105 to position the movable plate 105, and the limiting mechanism 109 on the movable plate 105 can prevent the movable plate 105 from slipping out of the adjustment groove; a scale line is provided on the movable plate 105, and by pulling the movable plate 105 to move, the movable plate 105 can be driven to move the movable plate 105 fixedly connected to the movable plate 10 5 moves, which can meet the test of different distances by the laser rangefinder; after adjusting the movable plate 105 to the predetermined position, the laser rangefinder is started, and the test point on the laser rangefinder will emit a laser and irradiate the laser onto the feedback plate 101. At this time, the laser rangefinder will feedback the distance value. By observing and comparing the scale distance on the movable plate 105 with the value on the laser rangefinder, the error value of the laser rangefinder can be measured. After that, the laser rangefinder can be calibrated by operating the settings to achieve the role of auxiliary calibration, which can not only improve the accuracy of calibration, but also be very quick and simple in operation.
[0039] The limiting mechanism 109 includes a limiting block 111 and a spring 112. The limiting block 111 is slidably mounted on the connecting block 108, and the limiting block 111 and the connecting block 108 are connected by the spring 112. When the movable plate 105 is pulled to move away from the positioning plate 110, the movable plate 105 contacts the limiting block 111, squeezing the limiting block 111. The spring 112 connecting the limiting block 111 and the connecting block 108 is compressed. When the limiting groove 107 provided on the movable plate 105 moves to a position corresponding to the limiting block 111, the limiting block 111 is pressed tightly against the limiting groove 107 under the action of the spring 112 to limit the movable plate 105.
[0040] As a further optimization, a first locking bolt 113 is threadedly connected to the connecting block 108. The first locking bolt 113 is used to drive the limit block 111 to engage with the limit groove 107 to lock the movable plate 105. When the movable plate 105 moves to a predetermined position, the first locking bolt 113 can be rotated to move the first locking bolt toward the limit block 111 until it contacts the limit block 111. The first locking bolt 113 then presses the limit block 111 against the limit groove 107 to secure the movable plate 105, thereby further improving the stability of the laser rangefinder during calibration.
[0041] The end of the connecting block 108 near the movable plate 105 is provided with a ball cavity, in which a ball 114 is connected and rolls. The provision of the ball 114 can convert the sliding friction between the stop block 111 and the movable plate 105 into rolling friction, thus preventing the stop block 111 from scratching the movable plate 105 during movement.
[0042] Further optimized, the clamping mechanism 104 includes a drive mechanism and two clamping blocks 115. Slide grooves 116 are symmetrically provided on the mounting plate 102. The two clamping blocks 115 are slidably mounted within the slide grooves 116. The drive mechanism is mounted on the mounting plate 102 and is used to drive the clamping blocks 115 to move toward or away from each other along the direction of the slide grooves 116. Driven by the drive mechanism, the two clamping blocks 115 can clamp laser rangefinders of different sizes.
[0043] Example 2
[0044] See Figure 1-Figure 3 This embodiment is a further improvement on the first embodiment. A square clamping groove 117 and an arcuate clamping groove 118 are provided on the clamping block 115. The square clamping groove 117 and the arcuate clamping groove 118 are connected. The square clamping groove 117 and the arcuate clamping groove 118 can clamp laser rangefinders of different shapes, further improving the practicality of the calibration device.
[0045] The drive mechanism includes a bidirectional screw 119 and a handwheel 120. The bidirectional screw 119 is rotatably mounted on the mounting plate 102. Two clamping blocks 115 are symmetrically threaded onto the left and right ends of the bidirectional screw 119. The handwheel 120 is fixedly sleeved onto the end of the bidirectional screw 119 that is located outside the mounting plate 102. When the operator rotates the bidirectional screw 119 using the handwheel 120, the clamping blocks 115, which are threaded onto the bidirectional screw 119, can move toward or away from each other along the direction of the slide 116 under the drive of the bidirectional screw 119 to clamp laser rangefinders of different sizes.
[0046] Further optimization, anti-skid pads are provided in the square clamping groove 117 and the arc clamping groove 118. The anti-skid pads are made of rubber material, and the provision of the anti-skid pads can prevent the square clamping groove 117 and the arc clamping groove 118 from scratching the laser rangefinder during the clamping process.
[0047] The positioning plate 110 is provided with a positioning groove 106 for preliminarily positioning the distance measuring mechanism 103. The positioning groove 106 can preliminarily position the laser rangefinder placed on the mounting plate 102, thereby facilitating the clamping block 115 to clamp the laser rangefinder.
[0048] Example 3
[0049] See Figure 1-Figure 3 This embodiment is substantially the same as the first or second embodiment, except that, in this embodiment, the feedback plate 101 is slidably mounted on the end of the movable plate 105 away from the positioning plate 110. The feedback plate 101 is provided with a plurality of threaded holes, and second locking bolts are threadedly connected to the movable plate 105, which engage with the threaded holes to lock the feedback plate 101. The threaded holes are evenly spaced from top to bottom on the side ends of the feedback plate 101. When clamping laser rangefinders at different heights, the feedback plate 101 is vertically slid up and down to ensure that it always aligns with the position of the laser rangefinder light mounted on the laser rangefinder. After the feedback plate 101 is moved to the position corresponding to the laser rangefinder light, the second locking bolts are rotated to engage with the threaded holes, thereby locking the feedback plate 101.

Therefore, the appended claims are intended to be interpreted as including the preferred embodiments and all changes and modifications that fall within the scope of the present invention.
[0051] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention.
