[0025] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 The present application provides a tracking lighting device for nighttime observation of a level, comprising a level 1 and a tracking lighting mechanism arranged on one side of the level 1, wherein:

[0026] The tracking lighting mechanism includes an angle adjustment component 2, a clamping component 3 and a flashlight 4. The clamping component 3 is arranged on the angle adjustment component 2, and the flashlight 4 is arranged on the clamping component 3. The angle adjustment component 2 is used to adjust the light irradiation direction of the flashlight 4, and the clamping component 3 is used to clamp and fix the flashlight 4. By clamping and fixing the flashlight 4 and adjusting the angle, the irradiation direction of the flashlight 4 can be flexibly adjusted in multiple dimensions, so that the lighting light emitted by the flashlight 4 can be parallel to the sighting axis of the level 1, effectively adapting to the changing needs of different observation scenes and target positions, and providing reliable, efficient and convenient lighting for the level 1 for night observation or in darker visibility environments, reducing labor and improving the quality and efficiency of observation operations.

[0027] In this embodiment, the above-mentioned angle adjustment component 2 includes a fixing base 201 installed and fixed on one side wall of the level 1, a circular cavity 202 is provided in the fixing base 201, a ball 203 is movably installed in the circular cavity 202, a connecting column 204 is fixedly installed on the side of the ball 203 away from the level 1, and an avoidance hole 205 communicating with the circular cavity 202 is provided on the side of the fixing base 201 away from the level 1, one end of the connecting column 204 passes through the avoidance hole 205, and the avoidance hole 205 is in a trumpet-shaped structure. The ball 203 can rotate freely in the circular cavity 202, so that the connecting column 204 drives the flashlight 4 to easily change the pitch angle, the tilt angle to the left or right, and the horizontal rotation angle The multi-angle adjustment can accurately direct the light emitted by the flashlight 4 to the position required for observation by the level 1. The trumpet-shaped avoidance hole 205 further improves the smoothness of the adjustment, avoiding the jamming or interference between the connecting column 204 and the fixing seat 201 when rotating at multiple angles. The user can complete the adjustment operation of the illumination angle of the flashlight 4 more smoothly and quickly. A positioning component for locking and fixing the ball 203 is provided on the fixing seat 201. The positioning component includes two screw rods 207, which are respectively threadedly mounted on the top and bottom of the fixing seat 201. Grooves 206 are provided on the top inner wall and the bottom inner wall of the circular cavity 202. The two screw rods The ends of the two screw rods 207 that are close to each other extend into the corresponding grooves 206 respectively, and the ends of the two screw rods 207 that are away from each other are fixedly installed with knobs 208, and the ends of the two screw rods 207 that are close to each other are rotatably installed with shaft seats 209, and the ends of the two shaft seats 209 that are close to each other are fixedly installed with arc-shaped locking plates 210, and the side of the arc-shaped locking plates 210 that are away from the shaft seats 209 extends to the outside of the groove 206, and the side of the arc-shaped locking plates 210 outside the groove 206 is fixedly installed with an anti-skid pad 211, and the anti-skid pad 211 abuts against the ball 203. Through the double screw rod structure and the arc-shaped locking plates 210 connected thereto, it is possible to apply force from the upper and lower sides of the ball 203. Stable and uniform pressure ensures the effective stability of locking the ball 203. When the ball 203 needs to be locked, the knob 208 is rotated to make the screw rod 207 drive the arc locking plate 210 close to the ball 203. The anti-slip pad 211 on the arc locking plate 210 is in close contact with the ball 203, and the ball 203 is effectively locked by relying on the larger friction force. This locking method has a simple structure but high reliability. After adjusting the lighting angle of the flashlight 4, it can ensure that the flashlight 4 will not be offset in angle due to accidental collision or slight vibration during the observation process, thereby ensuring the stability and continuity of the lighting, thereby providing stable lighting conditions for the accurate observation of the level 1.

[0028] In this embodiment, a guide rod 212 is fixedly installed on the side of the arc-shaped locking plate 210 away from the anti-slip pad 211, and a guide hole is opened on the inner wall of one side of the groove 206. One end of the guide rod 212 slides through the guide hole. The design of the guide rod 212 and the guide hole enhances the linearity and smoothness of the movement of the arc-shaped locking plate 210, so that the arc-shaped locking plate 210 is subjected to uniform force during the locking process, further improving the reliability and stability of the locking, and reducing the risk of angle changes due to loosening or displacement of components.

[0029] In this embodiment, the above-mentioned clamping assembly 3 includes an arc-shaped splint 1 301 installed and fixed at one end of the connecting column 204, and an arc-shaped splint 2 302 is detachably installed on one side of the arc-shaped splint 1 301. The flashlight 4 is located between the arc-shaped splint 1 301 and the arc-shaped splint 2 302. The inner wall of the side where the arc-shaped splint 1 301 and the arc-shaped splint 2 302 are close to each other is fixedly installed with an anti-slip pad 2 304. The two anti-slip pads 2 304 are both in contact with the outer wall of the flashlight 4. Both sides of the arc-shaped splint 1 301 and both ends of the arc-shaped splint 2 302 are fixedly connected with connecting ears. The two connecting ears located on the same horizontal plane are connected and fixed by bolts 303. The arc-shaped splint 1 301 and the arc-shaped clamp are used. The combination of plate 2 302, combined with the anti-slip pad 2 304 on its inner wall, can fit tightly against the outer wall of the flashlight 4. After the arc-shaped splint 1 301 and the arc-shaped splint 2 302 are connected and fixed by bolts 303, sufficient friction is generated between the anti-slip pad 2 304 and the flashlight 4, firmly clamping the flashlight 4 therein, effectively preventing the flashlight 4 from slipping due to movement, shaking or operational vibration of the instrument during use, avoiding equipment damage or observation interruption caused by the falling of the flashlight 4, and ensuring the safe and orderly progress of the observation work. In addition, the arc-shaped splint 1 301 and the arc-shaped splint 2 302 are fixedly connected by bolts 303, which facilitates the quick installation and disassembly of the flashlight 4.

[0030] In this embodiment, it should be noted that the flashlight 4 can be a small LED outdoor lighting flashlight purchased on the market, which can be equipped with batteries or charged, and the level 1 can be a level of model dini03 purchased on the market.

[0031] Through the above structure, the working principle of the tracking lighting device for night observation of the level provided by this application is as follows:

[0032] The second anti-skid pad 304 on the first and second arc splints 301 and 302 is used to firmly abut the outer wall of the flashlight 4, and the friction force generated between the second anti-skid pad 304 and the flashlight 4 is used to firmly clamp the flashlight 4 between the first and second arc splints 301 and 302, so that the flashlight 4 will not loosen or slip easily during use, whether it moves with the level instrument 1 or is subjected to external vibrations, thereby ensuring that the flashlight 4 can provide stable lighting during the entire night observation process.

[0033] After the flashlight 4 is clamped and fixed, when using the level 1 for measurement at night or in an environment with poor visibility (such as in a tunnel, etc.), the flashlight 4 is turned on to emit lighting to illuminate the measuring point of the level 1. By rotating the two knobs 208 counterclockwise, the knob 208 drives the corresponding screw rod 207 to rotate counterclockwise and gradually rotate outward of the groove 206. The screw rod 207 will drive the shaft seat 209, the arc-shaped locking plate 210 and the anti-slip pad 211 to move, so that the anti-slip pad 211 and the ball 203 are no longer in contact. At this time, the locking fixation of the ball 203 can be released. By utilizing the free rotation of the ball 203 in the circular cavity 202, the pitch angle, tilt angle to the left or right, horizontal rotation angle and other multi-angle adjustment operations of the flashlight 4 can be easily changed. When the flashlight 4 is adjusted to a suitable angle as needed, by turning the two knobs 208 clockwise, the knobs 208 drive the corresponding screw rod 207 to rotate clockwise and gradually screw into the groove 206, and the screw rod 207 will drive the shaft seat 209, the arc locking plate 210 and the anti-slip pad 211 to move, so that the anti-slip pad 211 can be tightly in contact with the ball 203. At this time, the locking and fixation of the ball 203 can be completed, that is, the flashlight 4 with the adjusted angle can be stably and firmly fixed, and then the lighting emitted by the flashlight 4 can be made parallel to the sighting axis of the level 1, effectively adapting to the changing needs of different observation scenes and target positions, and providing reliable, efficient and convenient lighting for the level 1 for night observation or in darker visibility environments, reducing labor and improving the quality and efficiency of observation operations.
