Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of engineering surveying devices, in particular to a connecting device for a GPS receiver and a prism pole. Background Art
[0002] Real-time dynamic positioning systems (RTKPs) are commonly used in engineering surveying technologies such as construction stakeout, topographic mapping, and photogrammetry control point placement. These systems achieve centimeter-level positioning accuracy in real time in the field. RTKP systems include a GPS receiver, data communication device, and processor. In practice, the GPS receiver is typically mounted on top of a vertically mounted prism pole via an adapter. As is currently the case, the prism pole is adjustable in height, typically with a maximum height of 5.1 meters.
[0003] The existing adapter includes a GPS receiver connector and a prism pole connector that are used together. The GPS receiver connector includes a threaded section and a plug-in section arranged above and below, and the threaded section is used to connect the GPS receiver. The prism pole connector includes a mounting barrel, a stud and a locking bolt; the vertically arranged stud is located below the mounting barrel with the opening facing upward, and the upper end of the stud is welded to the bottom of the mounting barrel. The plug-in section of the GPS receiver connector is inserted into the mounting barrel, and a threaded hole that matches the locking bolt is opened on the side wall of the mounting barrel. The locking bolt is installed through the threaded hole, and the end of the locking bolt that extends into the mounting barrel abuts against the plug-in section. The problem of thread slippage is prone to occur if the locking bolt is tightened more times, resulting in unstable installation of the GPS receiver connector and the prism pole connector. It also has the disadvantage of being inconvenient to disassemble and assemble. Utility Model Content

[0031] When the GPS receiver connector 1 is connected to the prism rod connector 2 , the GPS receiver connector 1 is clamped by the upper ends of the two clamping arms 204 .
[0032] The GPS receiver connector 1 is connected to the GPS receiver via a vertically arranged first stud 102. The bottom of the GPS receiver is provided with a threaded hole that screws into the first stud 102. The prism rod connector 2 is connected to the prism rod via a vertically arranged second stud 202. The top of the prism rod is provided with a threaded hole that screws into the second stud 202. Both the first stud 102 and the second stud 202 can be made of cemented carbide, steel, or the like. The GPS receiver connector 1 can be made of cemented carbide, steel, or the like, preferably carbon fiber. Preferably, the GPS receiver connector 1 is adhesively connected to the first stud 102. The GPS receiver connector 1 and the first stud 102 are coaxially arranged. The mounting barrel 201, the fixing block 203, and the second stud 202 can all be made of cemented carbide, steel, or the like. The bottom of the fixing block 203 is welded to the bottom wall of the mounting barrel 201. The upper end of the second stud 202 is welded to the bottom of the mounting barrel 201. Preferably, the mounting barrel 201 , the fixing block 203 and the second stud 202 are coaxially arranged.
[0033] The mounting barrel 201 provides mounting support for the fixing block 203 and horizontal rod 206, which can slide relative to the sidewalls of the mounting barrel 201. The fixing block 203 provides mounting support for the clamping arms 204. Springs 205 provide clamping force at the upper ends of the two clamping arms 204, ensuring that the GPS receiver connector 1 is stably clamped by the upper ends of the two clamping arms 204.

The spring 205 is arranged in the horizontal channel to ensure stable installation of the spring 205.
[0035] In order to limit the horizontal rod 206, preferably, a limiting portion 2061 is provided on the outer circumference of the horizontal rod 206, and the limiting portion 2061 is located between the two ends of the horizontal rod 206 and in the installation spacing 210. By providing the limiting portion 2061, the horizontal rod 206 is prevented from being separated from the installation barrel 201.
[0036] The limiting portion 2061 may be a block structure. Preferably, the limiting portion 2061 is an annular plate coaxially arranged with the horizontal rod 206. Both the horizontal rod 206 and the limiting portion 2061 may be made of hard alloy, steel, etc. The limiting portion 2061 is welded to the horizontal rod 206.

The protrusion 2041 on one clamping arm 204 engages with one of the slots 101, and the protrusion 2041 on the other clamping arm 204 engages with the other slot 101. The provision of the engaging slots 101 and protrusions 2041 further ensures that the two clamping arms 204 stably clamp the GPS receiver connector 1. Both the clamping arm 204 and the protrusion 2041 can be made of cemented carbide, steel, or the like.
[0038] The protrusion 2041 can be welded and fixed on the clamping arm 204. Preferably, the protrusion 2041 and the clamping arm 204 are an integrally formed structure.
[0039] To prevent vertical relative displacement between the GPS receiver connector 1 and the clamping arm 204, an elastic gasket 209 is preferably provided on the upper surface of the fixing block 203, with the upper surface of the elastic gasket 209 being lower than the bottom of the protrusion 2041. The elastic gasket 209 allows the bottom of the protrusion 2041 to abut against the bottom wall of the slot 101, thereby preventing vertical relative displacement between the GPS receiver connector 1 and the clamping arm 204.
