Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of hydrostatic levels, in particular to a displacement sensor for detecting railway roadbed settlement. Background Art

[0002] To ensure line stability, meet design and specification requirements, and adapt to environmental changes, railway subgrade settlement monitoring is necessary. Monitoring can detect anomalies and address them promptly. Furthermore, subgrade soil may compress or deform under long-term train loads. Monitoring can help understand settlement patterns and provide data support for maintenance to prevent structural damage.

[0003] Railway subsidence monitoring often relies on monitoring sensors such as hydrostatic levels. In existing technologies, most displacement sensors require pre-buried components or additional drilling for fixation, which not only increases construction cost and time but can also damage the subgrade structure, especially during maintenance of existing lines. Furthermore, when installing displacement sensors through components, the high-frequency vibrations generated by long-term train operation can easily loosen the traditional sensor fixing bolts due to the sensor's installation environment. This can lead to deviations in monitoring data and even device detachment, thus affecting the proper monitoring of the displacement sensor. This is especially true on some subgrades where the railway subgrade bed is composed of loose gravel with a low elastic modulus and gaps between the gravel. When a train passes, the force applied to the sleepers causes the ballast particles to move and rearrange relative to each other, resulting in slow energy dissipation and the vibration easily spreading to the surrounding area. This in turn causes the sleepers to vibrate and makes it difficult to effectively constrain the fixing components simultaneously. In this vibrating environment, the connection between the bolts and the sensor body is unstable, requiring frequent manual inspections and maintenance. Utility Model Content

The base 5 can provide a carrier for the installation of the hydrostatic level 1, and at the same time, provide a carrier for the insertion installation of the two side seats 6. Inner screw groove seats 11 are fixedly installed on both sides of the base 5. The inner screw groove seats 11 are set to provide connection conditions for the spirals used to fix the hydrostatic level 1 and the side seats 6. Two insertion rods 12 are fixedly installed on one side of the side seat 6. The insertion rods 12 are L-shaped. The side of the insertion rod 12 away from the side seat 6 is inserted and installed in the base 5 and extends to one of the limiting grooves 10.

[0026] like Figure 2-Figure 7 As shown, a second limit block 13 is fixedly installed on one side of the base block 8. The second limit block 13 is set so that the side seat 6 can contact the end of the bolt fixing the static level 1 after being fixed to one side of the base 5, thereby limiting its axial movement. A connecting block 14 is fixedly installed on the other side of the base block 8. A card slot 15 is provided on the front and rear sides of the connecting block 14. The setting of the connecting block 14 can provide conditions for the rotation installation of the first limit block 9. A first fixed block 16 is fixedly installed on the top of the base block 8. A guide shaft 18 is fixedly installed on one side of the operating panel 17. The side of the guide shaft 18 away from the operating panel 17 is inserted in the first fixed block 16 and limited by the retaining spring. The guide shaft 18 between the first fixed block 16 and the operating panel 17 is provided with a compression spring 19. 17 is fixedly installed with an insert plate 20 on the side away from the guide shaft 18. The cooperation of the first fixed block 16, the compression spring 19 and the insert plate 20 can limit the first limit block 9 to different postures. A connecting groove 21 is provided on one side of the first limit block 9. The front and rear sides of the connecting groove 21 are fixedly installed with a clamping block 22.

The first limit block 9 is rotatably mounted on the connecting block 14 through the connecting groove 21 and the clamping block 22, and one side of the insert plate 20 is inserted into one of the slots 24. The setting of the first limit block 9 can be used to limit the axial movement of the bolt end of the fixed side seat 6 after the side seat 6 is fixed to one side of the base 5 by bolts.

[0027] It should be noted that the present invention is a displacement sensor for detecting railway roadbed settlement. Before installation, the hydrostatic level 1 is first fixed to the base 5 by bolts, and one end of the bolt for fixing the hydrostatic level 1 is threadedly connected to the screw groove at the top of the inner screw groove seat 11. Subsequently, the gravel under the sleeper rail is cleaned out so that the position below both sides of the sleeper rail is exposed. The base 5 can be placed in the middle position on the sleeper rail, and two L-shaped splints 7 are placed on one side of the sleeper rail. At the same time, the two side seats 6 can be respectively moved toward the base 5. Push, so that the side seat 6 drives the two insertion rods 12 on one side to move in the base 5, and the L-shaped clamping plate 7 moves synchronously to the side of the sleeper rail, so that the lower end of the L-shaped clamping plate 7 is inserted into the bottom of the sleeper rail. Subsequently, one end of the bolt passes through the through hole in the side seat 6 and is threaded into the screw groove on one side of one of the inner screw groove seats 11, so that the side seat 6 can be gradually locked with the base 5, and then the side seat 6 drives the top base block 8 to move synchronously, so that the second limit block 13 at one end of the base block 8 abuts against the end of the bolt fixing the static level 1 , thereby limiting it, and then, the operating plate 17 can be pushed to one side, so that the operating plate 17 drives the guide shaft 18 to move in the shaft hole in the first fixed block 16 and compresses the compression spring 19. As a result, the operating plate 17 drives one end of the plug plate 20 to disengage from one of the slots 24 in the second fixed block 23, so that the first limiting block 9 can be rotated ninety degrees on the connecting block 14 with the two card blocks 22 in the connecting groove 21 as the axis, so that one end of the first limiting block 9 is turned over and hits the screw on the fixed side seat 6 The end of the bolt, at this time, the operating plate 17 can be loosened, so that the operating plate 17 can be pushed toward the first limit block 9 by utilizing the force of the compression spring 19 to stretch and rebound, and then the operating plate 17 drives one end of the plug plate 20 to be inserted into another slot 24 of the second fixed block 23, thereby limiting the first limit block 9. Therefore, the axial movement of the bolts fixing the hydrostatic level 1 and the side seat 6 can be limited by the first limit block 9 and the second limit block 13, so that the installation of the hydrostatic level 1 is not affected by the vibration during the operation of the train.
