[0002] Existing intelligent bolt monitoring devices consist of a measuring rod and a displacement sensor. The measuring rod is installed in the axial hole of the screw, and the displacement sensor is mounted on the top surface of the screw, with its sensing rod resting against the measuring rod.

The lower end of the measuring rod 100 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the axial hole 11 by methods including, but not limited to, adhesive bonding, threaded connection, and interference fit. A clearance is provided between the outer circumference of the measuring rod 100 and the inner circumference of the axial hole 11 to facilitate movement of the measuring rod 100 in response to the screw 10.

[0031] The mounting base plate 200 is fixedly mounted on the top surface of the screw rod 10. A mounting boss 210 is formed on the surface of the mounting base plate 200 facing the bolt 10. An external thread 211 is formed on the outer circumference of the mounting boss 210. A mounting groove 12 is formed at the upper end of the axial hole 11 of the bolt 10 to cooperate with the mounting boss 210. An internal thread 12a is formed on the inner circumference of the mounting groove 12 to cooperate with the external thread 211. When the mounting base plate 200 is installed, the mounting boss 210 of the mounting base plate 200 is threadedly inserted into the mounting groove 12 of the screw rod 10, thereby securing the mounting base plate 200 to the screw rod 10. A base plate through-hole 220 is provided at the center of the mounting base plate 200, through which the upper end of the measuring rod 100 passes.

[0032] The thermal insulation assembly 300a includes a thermal insulation plate 310a and a thermal insulation measuring rod 320a. The thermal insulation plate 310a is arranged on the mounting base plate 200 and has an axial through hole 311a arranged coaxially with the axial hole 11. The thermal insulation measuring rod 320a is installed in the axial through hole 311a of the thermal insulation plate 310a and its lower end is fixedly connected to the upper end of the measuring rod 100. The fixing method can be a clamping method, such as a clamping method of a protrusion and a groove.

[0033] The thermal insulation assembly 300b includes a thermal insulation plate 310b and a thermal insulation measuring rod 320b. The thermal insulation plate 310b is arranged on the thermal insulation plate 310a in a stacked manner and has an axial through hole 311b coaxially arranged with the axial hole 11. The thermal insulation measuring rod 320b is installed in the axial through hole 311b of the thermal insulation plate 310b and its lower end is fixedly connected to the upper end of the thermal insulation measuring rod 320a. The fixing method can be a clamping method, such as a clamping method of a protrusion and a groove.

In this embodiment, the displacement sensor 500 is preferably a SEN920-LORA wireless high-precision displacement sensor, which wirelessly transmits collected data to a data collector.

[0035] The surface of the fixing plate 400 facing the displacement sensor 500 includes a mounting hole 410 with an internal thread 411 formed therein. A mounting boss 520 is formed on the end surface of the displacement sensor 500 facing the fixing plate 400. The outer circumference of the mounting boss 520 includes an external thread 521 that mates with the internal thread 411. During installation, the mounting boss 520 of the displacement sensor 500 is threadably inserted into the mounting hole 410 of the fixing plate 400, thereby securing the displacement sensor 500 to the fixing plate 400.

[0036] It should be noted that the number of thermal insulation assemblies is not limited to that in this embodiment; it should be provided based on thermal insulation requirements. At least one thermal insulation assembly may be provided, or multiple thermal insulation assemblies may be provided, and these assemblies are stacked and arranged between the mounting base 200 and the fixing plate 400.

[0037] In this embodiment, insulation board 310a and insulation measuring rod 320a in insulation assembly 300a are made of the same material, ensuring that the thermal expansion systems of insulation board 310a and insulation measuring rod 320a are consistent, effectively reducing errors. Similarly, insulation board 310b and insulation measuring rod 320b in insulation assembly 300b are made of the same material, ensuring that the thermal expansion systems of insulation board 310b and insulation measuring rod 320b are consistent, effectively reducing errors.

[0038] When the insulation components 300a and 300b are installed, the insulation plate 310b in the insulation component 300b located on the top layer is fixed to the fixing plate 400 by means of a number of circumferentially spaced fastening screws 330. After the insulation plates 310a and 310b in all the insulation components 300a and 300b are stacked, they are fixed to the installation base plate 200 by means of a number of circumferentially spaced fastening screws 340.

[0039] The present invention arranges heat insulation components 300a and 300b between the measuring rod 100 and the displacement sensor 500. The heat insulation components 300a and 300b reduce the temperature of the bolt surface to a temperature at which the displacement sensor 500 can work normally, thereby avoiding damage to the displacement sensor 500 caused by high temperature, and realizing monitoring of the pre-tightening force of the high-temperature bolt. This solves the problem of not being able to clearly understand the tightness of the high-temperature bolt during daily work, and reduces the maintenance workload of personnel on site.
