Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of distance measuring devices, and more specifically to a distance measuring device for architectural design. Background Art
[0002] The distance meter used in architectural design is usually a laser distance meter. A laser distance meter is a portable electronic device that can accurately measure distance by emitting laser pulses and measuring the time it takes for the pulses to return. In architectural design, laser distance meters are widely used to measure the length, width, height, and other spatial dimensions of buildings so that architects and designers can accurately plan and design buildings.
[0003] A rangefinder usually needs to be kept horizontal during use to reduce errors and ensure measurement accuracy. Existing rangefinders are mostly equipped with a bracket. The base on the bracket used to place the rangefinder can usually be adjusted horizontally using multiple screws. However, when the user changes the position of the rangefinder, the bracket also needs to be moved. Therefore, the base needs to be readjusted every time the bracket is moved, which is cumbersome and reduces measurement efficiency.
[0004] Therefore, in response to the above problems, a distance measuring device for architectural design is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0006] In response to the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a distance measuring device for architectural design. Through the spherical connection between the connecting column and the limit ring, under the action of the gravity of the counterweight block, regardless of whether the bracket itself is standing horizontally, the connecting column will be pulled down by the counterweight block and remain vertically upright, thereby maintaining the horizontal placement of the base and the rotating disk. Compared with the existing bracket that adjusts the level of the base by screws, the horizontal adjustment of the base and the rotating disk in this solution can be completed automatically without the need for cumbersome adjustment steps. In the measurement process that requires multiple changes in the position of the rangefinder, it brings convenience to the user and improves the measurement efficiency.

[0027] Example:
[0028] See also Figure 1-3 A distance measuring device for architectural design includes a bracket 1, a base 5, a rotating disk 6 and a rangefinder 7. A limit ring 2 is fixedly connected to the bracket 1, and a connecting column 3 is spherically connected to the inner end of the limit ring 2. The upper and lower ends of the connecting column 3 are respectively fixedly connected to the center position of the base 5 and the counterweight 4. The upper end of the base 5 is rotatably connected to a rotating disk 6 that matches it, and the rangefinder 7 is arranged at the upper end of the rotating disk 6.
[0029] The distance meter used in architectural design is usually a laser distance meter. A laser distance meter is a portable electronic device that can accurately measure distance by emitting laser pulses and measuring the time it takes for the pulses to return. In architectural design, laser distance meters are widely used to measure the length, width, height, and other spatial dimensions of buildings so that architects and designers can accurately plan and design buildings.
[0030] The support 1 is fixed on the ground with the support rod 3 and the support rod 4 being supported on the ground, so that the support 1 can be adjusted horizontally.
[0031] See also Figure 3-4 A sliding rod 13 is slidably connected to the limiting ring 2, and one end of the sliding rod 13 extends to the inner cavity of the limiting ring 2. The end of the sliding rod 13 extending to the inner cavity of the limiting ring 2 is set to an arc surface matching the connecting column 3, and a rubber pad 10 is installed at the end of the sliding rod 13 close to the connecting column 3. A servo motor 11 is installed at one end of the limiting ring 2, and a gear 12 is fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor 11. A plurality of tooth grooves matching the gear 12 are opened at the outer end of the sliding rod 13, and the gear 12 is meshed with the tooth grooves.
[0032] In order to ensure that the rangefinder 7 can be stably placed on the upper end of the rotating disk 6 after the base 5 and the rotating disk 6 tend to be horizontal, and the base 5 and the rotating disk 6 will not tilt, a rubber pad 10 is installed on the limiting ring 2 in this solution. When the base 5 and the rotating disk 6 are stationary and tend to be horizontal, the user starts the servo motor 11 to drive the gear 12 to rotate, and then the gear 12 pushes the slide bar 13 to move toward the inside of the limiting ring 2, so that the rubber pad 10 is closely abutted against the connecting column 3, thereby limiting the connecting column 3 and preventing the connecting column 3 from moving. The base 5 and the rotating disk 6 are fixed in the current horizontal state, effectively improving the stability of the rangefinder 7 when placed.
[0033] See also Figure 1-2 The outer end of the base 5 is engraved with an angle line, and the outer end of the rotating disk 6 is fixedly connected to the handle 8 and the pointer 9.
[0034] When using the rangefinder 7 to measure distance, the user usually needs to measure in multiple directions. In this solution, the user can drive the rotating disk 6 to rotate on the upper end of the base 5 by turning the handle 8, thereby driving the rangefinder 7 to rotate. By comparing the pointer 9 with the scale line on the outer end of the base 5, the rotation angle of the rangefinder 7 can be accurately controlled, thereby improving the accuracy of the rotation angle of the rangefinder 7 when measuring distance in different directions, bringing convenience to the distance measurement work.
[0035] See also Figure 1 , an anti-slip pad is installed on the upper end of the rotating disk 6.
[0036] An anti-slip pad is installed on the upper end of the rotating disk 6, which increases the friction between the rotating disk 6 and the rangefinder 7 and improves the stability of the rangefinder 7 when placed on the upper end of the rotating disk 6.
[0037] Working principle:
[0038] When in use, the user moves the bracket 1 to the position where the distance measurement is required, and stands the bracket 1 on the ground. Under the action of the gravity of the counterweight 4, whether the bracket 1 itself is standing horizontally or not, the connecting column 3 will be pulled down by the counterweight 4 and remain vertically upright, thereby keeping the base 5 and the rotating disk 6 horizontally placed. Then the user starts the servo motor 11 to drive the gear 12 to rotate, and then the gear 12 pushes the slide rod 13 to move toward the inside of the limit ring 2, so that the rubber pad 10 is tightly abutted against the connecting column 3, thereby achieving connection. The limit of the column 3 prevents the connecting column 3 from moving, thereby fixing the base 5 and the rotating disk 6 in the current horizontal state. The user then places the rangefinder 7 on the upper end of the rotating disk 6 to continue measuring the distance. During the distance measurement process, the user can drive the rotating disk 6 to rotate on the upper end of the base 5 by turning the handle 8, thereby driving the rangefinder 7 to rotate. By comparing the pointer 9 with the scale line at the outer end of the base 5, the rotation angle of the rangefinder 7 can be accurately controlled, thereby improving the accuracy of the rotation angle of the rangefinder 7 when measuring distances in different directions.
[0039] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention; however, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art who, within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention, makes equivalent substitutions or modifications based on the technical solutions and improved concepts of the present invention shall be covered by the scope of protection of the present invention.
