Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of total stations, in particular to a total station for water conservancy engineering survey and measurement. Background Art

[0002] The total station has the functions of measuring elevation, angle, slope distance, horizontal distance, etc., and is widely used in various engineering surveying operations.

[0003] Total stations are usually used in conjunction with tripods. To ensure measurement accuracy, the total station needs to be leveled, which is achieved by adjusting the foot screws on the total station base. However, during the measurement process, measurements often need to be taken at multiple locations. After completing the measurement work at each station, the surveyor is often busy rushing to the next location and forgets to adjust the foot screws back to the position flush with the centerline of the stud. The next time leveling is performed, the tripod may need to be re-set up because the foot screws do not have sufficient adjustment travel. This not only delays the project progress but also makes the operation cumbersome. Therefore, it is very necessary to create a total station that can automatically restore the foot screws to the position flush with the centerline of the stud after measurement. Utility Model Content

[0004] In response to the shortcomings of the existing total station mentioned in the background technology during use, the utility model provides a total station for water conservancy engineering survey and measurement.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0019] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 A total station for water conservancy engineering survey and measurement includes an observation part 1 and a leveling part 2. The observation part 1 is rotatably connected to the leveling part 2. The leveling part 2 includes a top plate 21 and a bottom plate 22. Three foot screws 6 are provided between the top plate 21 and the bottom plate 22. The foot screws 6 are rotatably connected to the top surface of the bottom plate 22. A stud 211 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the top plate 21 corresponding to the position above the foot screw 6. The stud 211 is sleeved inside the foot screw 6. By rotating the foot screw 6, the vertical distance between the top plate 21 and the bottom plate 22 is changed, and the top plate 21 is leveled to complete the leveling of the observation part 1.

[0020] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 The gear 8 and the reset spring 9 are relatively fixed by rotating the foot screw 6, and the mounting block 7 and the gear 8 are rotated synchronously, and the gear 8 is pressed against the thread on the side of the stud 211 by the gear 8 and rotated relative to it, thereby lifting or lowering the stud 211.

[0021] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 A return spring 9 is provided on the outer side of the stud 211 above the foot screw 6. The top of the return spring 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the top plate 21, and the bottom end of the return spring 9 is rotatably connected to the top surface of the foot screw 6. The length of the return spring 9 is half the length of the stud 211. When the electromagnet 73 is powered off, the permanent magnet 71 moves outward under the tension of the tension spring 72 and separates from the gear 8. The gear 8 can rotate freely. Under the action of the elastic force of the upper return spring 9, the stud 211 moves relative to the foot screw 6, and finally the middle part of the stud 211 is roughly flush with the foot screw 6. A dust cover 91 is provided on the outer side of the return spring 9. The dust cover 91 is a telescopic tubular structure, and the two ends of the dust cover 91 are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the top plate 21 and the top surface of the foot screw 6 respectively.

[0022] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 A detection chamber 3 is fixedly installed at the bottom center of the top plate 21. The detection chamber 3 is a hollow shell structure with a flat top and a funnel-shaped bottom. A ball 5 is provided inside the detection chamber 3. When the observation part 1 is roughly leveled, the ball 5 rolls to the bottom center of the detection chamber 3. The bottom center of the detection chamber 3 is recessed downward to form a trigger chamber 4. An elastic membrane 41 is fixedly installed on the top of the trigger chamber 4. A positive electrode sheet 42 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the elastic membrane 41. A negative electrode sheet 43 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the bottom surface of the trigger chamber 4 opposite the positive electrode sheet 42. A compression spring 44 is provided in the trigger chamber 4. The elastic force of the compression spring 44 is less than the gravity of the ball 5. The two ends of the compression spring 44 are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the elastic membrane 41 and the inner wall of the bottom surface of the trigger chamber 4 respectively. When the ball 5 is located above the elastic membrane 41, the elastic membrane 41 is pressed down, and the compression spring 44 is compressed accordingly. The elastic membrane 41 and the positive electrode sheet 42 move downward and fit with the negative electrode sheet 43 below, so that the electromagnet 73 is energized.

[0023] The method of use (working principle) of the present invention is as follows: fix the total station on a tripod, and adjust the tripod so that the observation part 1 is roughly leveled, the ball 5 rolls along the funnel-shaped bottom surface of the detection chamber 3 to the top of the elastic membrane 41, and then presses the elastic membrane 41 downward and concaves it, and the compression spring 44 is compressed synchronously, so that the negative electrode piece 43 and the positive electrode piece 42 fit together to energize the electromagnet 73, and the permanent magnet 71 is then pushed toward the direction of the gear 8 and fits with the tooth surface of the gear 8, so that the gear 8 is relatively fixed to the mounting block 7 and the foot screw 6, and the foot screw 6 is rotated to lift or lower the stud 211 through the contact and sliding of the tooth surface of the gear 8 with the side thread of the stud 211, and the top plate 21 is adjusted to a horizontal state. While adjusting the height of the stud 211, the reset spring 9 undergoes elastic deformation.

[0024] When the measurement is completed or the measuring station needs to be changed, the surveyor moves the total station. At this time, the total station as a whole tilts sharply. The ball 5 rolls to the inner edge of the detection chamber 3 under the action of gravity. The elastic membrane 41 resets upward under the elastic force of the compression spring 44, so that the positive electrode 42 is separated from the negative electrode 43 and the electromagnet 73 is powered off. The permanent magnet 71 moves outward under the tension of the tension spring 72 and separates from the gear 8. Under the elastic force of the reset spring 9, the middle part of the stud 211 automatically resets to be flush with the foot screw 6, omitting the manual reset operation and avoiding the problem of insufficient stud adjustment stroke due to forgetting to reset, which requires re-setting the tripod.
