[0032] The following embodiments of the technical solution of the present invention are described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present invention and are therefore only examples and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0033] Example 1:

[0034] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the horizontal monitoring point installation device of the present invention includes a fixing frame 1, which has a diameter of 2 mm and a grid truss structure made of aluminum alloy, and is used to improve the stability of the drone 4 during flight and reduce deflection; a fixing rod 2, which is arranged on the left side of the fixing frame 1, has a diameter of 2 mm and a length of 30 mm, and is made of stainless steel; a mounting block 3, which is located on the side of the fixing rod 2 away from the fixing frame 1, and has a length, width and height of 40 mm, and is made of lightweight material. The mounting block 3 is plugged into the fixing rod 2, and a reflective sticker (self-adhesive reflective sticker for surveying and measurement) is pasted on the outer surface of the mounting block 3. The reflective sticker is not shown in this embodiment. The back of the mounting block 3 is coated with an adhesive material (epoxy resin) which can be used for bonding to the vault pipe segment; and a drone 4 (the drone 4 is a four-rotor drone 4), which is located at the end of the fixing frame 1 away from the fixing rod 2, and the bottom end of the drone 4 is connected to the top end of the fixing frame 1.

[0035] The drone 4 is equipped with a vertical (upward) camera (not shown in the figure), a front (horizontal) camera (not shown in the figure), a vertical (upward) laser ranging head (not shown in the figure) and a front (horizontal) laser ranging head (not shown in the figure).

[0036] Specifically, through the coordinated arrangement of the fixing frame 1, the fixing rod 2, the mounting block 3, the reflective sticker and the drone 4, the drone 4 can be operated to install the monitoring mark horizontally on the facade of the tall structure, and the adhesive installation can be achieved through adhesive materials, thereby avoiding direct contact between the drill bit and the structural material as much as possible, thereby reducing the potential threat to the structural performance.

[0037] In some embodiments, the chamfer angle of the left end of the fixing rod 2 is 30°.

[0038] Specifically, it is convenient to insert the left end of the fixing rod 2 into the mounting block 3 .

[0039] In some embodiments, a micro pressure sensor 5 is provided between the fixing frame 1 and the fixing rod 2 . The micro pressure sensor 5 is electrically connected to the drone 4 via a wire, and the sensor range is 0-5N.

[0040] Specifically, the micro pressure sensor 5 is used to determine whether the mounting block 3 is attached to the object to be measured.

[0041] In some embodiments, the bottom end of the drone 4 and the top end of the fixing frame 1 are detachably connected via a mounting assembly.

[0042] Specifically, the drone 4 and the fixing frame 1 are installed through the installation assembly, so as to facilitate disassembly and installation.

[0043] In some embodiments, the mounting assembly includes a mounting rod 61, the bottom end of the mounting rod 61 is fixedly connected to the top end of the fixing frame 1, an external thread 62 is provided on the outer side of the mounting rod 61, and a mounting groove 63 is provided on one end of the drone 4 facing the mounting rod 61, and an internal thread 64 is provided on the inner side of the mounting groove 63, and the mounting rod 61 and the mounting groove 63 are connected by threads.

[0044] Specifically, by providing the mounting rod 61 , the mounting groove 63 , the external thread 62 and the internal thread 64 , the mounting bracket 1 and the drone 4 can be easily disassembled and assembled, while having good stability.

[0045] In some embodiments, a counterweight is provided on the right side of the fixing frame.

[0046] Example 2:

[0047] like Figures 4-6As shown in the figure, the difference from Example 1 is that the mounting assembly includes a mounting rod 61, the bottom end of the mounting rod 61 is fixedly connected to the top end of the fixing frame 1, and the drone 4 is provided with a mounting groove 63 at one end facing the mounting rod 61, and the mounting groove 63 is plugged into the mounting rod 61.

[0048] In some embodiments, a receiving groove 71 is provided on one side of the mounting rod 61, and a sliding block 72 is slidably installed in the receiving groove 71. The sliding block 72 is arranged in an "L" shape, and a spring 73 (tension spring) is fixedly connected between the end of the sliding block 72 and the inner wall of the receiving groove 71. A plug-in groove 74 is provided on the side of the drone 4 close to the mounting rod 61, and a plug-in block 75 is fixedly connected to the end of the sliding block 72 located outside the receiving groove 71, and the plug-in block 75 is arranged in coordination with the plug-in groove 74.

[0049] Specifically, by providing the receiving slot 71, the sliding block 72, the spring 73, the plug-in slot 74, and the plug-in block 75, when installation is required, the mounting slot 63 is first aligned with the mounting rod 61, and the mounting rod 61 is inserted into the mounting slot 63. At the same time, the sliding block 72 is pulled toward the outside of the receiving slot 71, thereby causing the spring 73 to stretch. When the mounting rod 61 is completely plugged into the mounting slot 63, the sliding block 72 is released. Then, the sliding block 72 is returned to the inside of the receiving slot 71 under the action of the spring 73, and the plug-in block 75 is driven into the plug-in slot 74, thereby completing the plug-in. When disassembly is required, the sliding block 72 is again pulled toward the outside of the receiving slot 71, thereby disengaging the plug-in block 75 from the plug-in slot 74. Then, the mounting rod 61 is pulled out of the mounting slot 63 to complete disassembly.

[0050] In some embodiments, a handle is fixedly connected to the end of the sliding block 72 .

[0051] Specifically, a handle is provided to facilitate an operator to pull the sliding block 72 .

[0052] In some embodiments, there are two sliding blocks 72, two springs 73, two plug-in blocks 75 and two sliding blocks 72, and they are symmetrically arranged. There are also two accommodating grooves 71 and two plug-in grooves 74, and they are symmetrically arranged.

[0053] The method of using the utility model is as follows:

[0054] Bury monitoring points on tall bridge piers (including main towers), signal towers, chimneys, and facades of high-rise buildings:

[0055] Step 1: Install the fixing bracket 1 on the drone 4.

[0056] Step 2: Apply 15g of epoxy resin evenly on the back of the mounting block 3.

[0057] Step 3: Insert the fixing rod 2 along the center line of the front of the mounting block 3.

[0058] Step 4: Use the UAV 4's own flight control system to control the UAV 4 to carry the fixed frame 1 and fly to a range of 10m within the predetermined area.

[0059] Step 5: Use the front camera to search for the laser spot emitted by the total station at the measuring station, and use the UAV 4's own flight control system to drive the UAV 4 close to the spot.

[0060] Step 6: Control the drone 4 to fly horizontally according to the distance of the front (horizontal) laser ranging head. When the horizontal distance between the drone 4 and the vertical surface of the structure is 500 mm, hover the drone 4 and adjust the front direction of the mounting block 3 through the drone 4's own flight control system so that its front directly faces the measuring station.

[0061] Step 7: The vertical (upward) camera and the vertical (upward) laser ranging head are used for joint monitoring, and the UAV 4's own flight control system is used to drive the UAV 4 to rise vertically to the light spot position.

[0062] Step 8. After the back of the mounting block 3 contacts the vertical surface of the structure, continue to push the drone 4 forward horizontally. At this time, the micro pressure sensor 5 begins to display the force magnitude under pressure. When the micro pressure sensor 5 displays that the positive pressure reaches 1.5N, keep the drone 4 in this control state for 15s.

[0063] Step 9: Use the UAV 4's own flight control system to drive the UAV 4 horizontally backward, the fixing rod 2 is separated from the mounting block 3, and the mounting block 3 is fixed at a predetermined position.

[0064] Step 10: Use the UAV 4's own flight control system to drive the UAV 4 to recover and complete the installation of the monitoring point.
