Detailed Implementation

[0019] The embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0020] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a tool for rapidly determining slope gradient includes a level 1, a level instrument 2 embedded in the top of the level 1, a protractor 3 fixedly mounted at the end of the level 1, and a measuring ruler 7 rotatably mounted at the center of the protractor 3 via a rotating shaft 4. A laser rangefinder 6 is fixed to the outer wall of the end of the measuring ruler 7. The laser beam emitted by the laser rangefinder 6 remains parallel to the baseline 13 of the measuring ruler 7, and the backward extension of the laser beam is orthogonal to the center line 15 of the rotating shaft. By using this tool, the slope gradient can be accurately calculated by measuring the straight-line distance from the top and bottom of the slope to the measurement point, as well as the angle between the line connecting the measurement point and the top of the slope and the horizontal plane of the measurement point, and then applying a predetermined formula to the measured parameters. This improves work efficiency in monitoring slope compliance and stability. During the measurement process, this tool is placed at the bottom of the slope. This position ensures the convenience and safety of the surveyor, guarantees the level of the tool, allows the laser rangefinder to illuminate the top of the slope by rotating the measuring ruler, and ensures that when the measuring ruler is rotated to a horizontal position (i.e., the angle measurement window reading is 0°), the laser rangefinder can illuminate the bottom edge of the slope. After confirming the level of the measuring ruler with a level instrument, the laser rangefinder is turned on and the measuring ruler is rotated to illuminate the top of the slope. At this point, the distance to the top of the slope is read using the laser rangefinder, and the angle to the top of the slope is read using the angle measurement window. The measuring ruler is then rotated until the angle measurement window reading is 0°, allowing the laser to illuminate the bottom edge of the slope. At this point, the distance to the bottom of the slope is read using the laser rangefinder.

[0021] Furthermore, during measurement, the observation surface is kept parallel to the horizontal reference plane 8 of the level 1. By adopting the above-mentioned positional arrangement, the accuracy and precision of subsequent measurements are ensured.

[0022] Furthermore, the outer edge of the protractor 3 is provided with protractor scale lines 14. These protractor scale lines 14 facilitate subsequent reading of the measured angle, thereby enabling quick reading of the angle value.

[0023] Further, the measuring scale 7 is provided with an angle measuring window 5, which matches the position of the protractor scale line 14 and indicates the angle of the measuring scale 7, the side of the angle measuring window 5 is provided with an angle measuring sight 11, which is accurately positioned at the position where the angle measuring window 5 is perpendicular to the measuring scale reference line 13 of the measuring scale 7. The angle value can be accurately read through the angle measuring window 5 and the corresponding angle measuring sight 11.

[0024] Further, the horizontal ruler 1 and the measuring scale 7 are long strip-shaped rigid plates. The horizontal ruler 1 and the measuring scale 7 ensure the structural strength and stability of the entire measuring tool.

[0025] Further, the length of the horizontal ruler 1 is 0.4-0.6m, the length of the measuring scale 7 is 0.3-0.5m, and the scale range of the protractor 3 is 0-90°. Through the above size range, good adaptability is ensured.

The scale indicated by the angle measuring sight is the reading of the measuring scale reference line and the reference surface of the horizontal ruler 1.

[0030] Figure 3 In the specific embodiment, the intersection of the pivot center line and the measuring scale reference line is marked as point A. The distance from the starting distance point of the laser range finder to point A is a known constant, that is, the distance difference between the actual value and the measured value, which is marked as q.

[0031] Figure 4In the figure, point A is the axis point of the tool when measuring, point B is the intersection of the slope bottom edge and the reference line of the measuring ruler, point D is the laser range finder irradiation point on the slope top boundary (i.e. the intersection of the measuring ruler rotation plane and the slope top boundary), point C is the perpendicular foot of point D to the extension line of AB, the range x is the distance displayed by the laser range finder when the laser range finder irradiates the slope top boundary (i.e. the distance from the range origin to the slope top boundary), the angle α is a measurement value, which is the angle measurement reading of ∠DAC read by the reading window when the laser range finder irradiates the slope top boundary, the range y is a measurement value, which is the range displayed by the laser range finder when the laser range finder irradiates the slope bottom edge (i.e. the distance from the range origin to the slope bottom edge), the range z is a calculation value, which is the calculated length of DC, and the angle β is the slope angle, which is a calculation value, and the slope gradient z / k is also a calculation value, which are calculated.

[0032] Embodiment 3:

[0033] One specific example of the utility model comprises a level 1, a level meter 2, a protractor 3, a rotating shaft 4, an angle measuring window 5, a laser range finder 6 and a measuring ruler 7.

[0034] The level 1 is a cuboid (with rounded corners) made of PC plate injection molding, with a length, width and height of 500mm*200mm*50mm.

[0035] The level meter 2 is a universal bubble type circular level meter, with a cylindrical appearance, a radius of 50mm and a height of 25mm.

[0036] The protractor 3 is a semicircular stainless steel protractor, with a thickness of 1.5mm, a radius of 150mm, scale marks of negative engraving, a scale range of 0-90°, a scale step of 1° and a digital reading every 5°.

[0037] The rotating shaft 4 is a stainless steel damping hinge, with an outer diameter of 40mm and an inner diameter of 20mm.

[0038] The angle measuring window 5 penetrates the measuring ruler, with a window of 30mm*30mm and a depth of 10mm.

[0039] The laser range finder 6 is a pulse laser range finder, with a maximum measurement range of 150m and an accuracy of ±2mm.

[0040] The measuring ruler 7 is a cuboid (with rounded corners) made of PC plate injection molding, with a length, width and height of 500mm*10mm*50mm.

[0041] The working process and principle of the tool are as follows:

[0042] 1. Find the measurement point:

[0043] Before measurement, find a point under the pit bottom of the slope and place the tool. After stable placement, the midpoint of the shaft axis is recorded as point A. The point should meet the following requirements: to ensure the convenience and safety of the measurement personnel, to ensure that the tool level is placed horizontally, to ensure that the laser range finder can be irradiated to the slope top boundary by rotating the measuring ruler, and to ensure that the laser range finder can be irradiated to the slope bottom edge when the angle measuring window reads 0° when the measuring ruler is rotated to the horizontal direction.

[0044] 2. Debugging the measurement tool:

[0045] Place the tool stably at point A, and the measurement personnel are on the side closer to the measuring ruler with the protractor as the boundary. Observe the level indicated by the level, at this time, no matter how the measuring ruler is rotated, the level of the level will not change. Then turn on the laser range finder and rotate the measuring ruler to verify that the laser range finder can be irradiated to the slope top boundary, and the measuring ruler is rotated to the horizontal direction (i.e. the angle measuring window reads 0°) when it is just irradiated to the slope bottom edge.

[0046] 3. Measure the slope top distance and horizontal clamping foot:

[0047] Measure the distance from point A to the slope top boundary: turn on the laser range finder and rotate the measuring ruler so that the laser range finder just irradiates to the slope top boundary. At this time, record the distance value displayed by the laser range finder, denoted as x; record the angle value indicated by the angle measuring window, i.e. the measurement value of ∠DAC, denoted as α.

[0048] 4. Measure the slope bottom distance:

[0049] Rotate the measuring ruler to the horizontal direction (i.e. the angle measuring window reads 0°), at this time, record the distance value displayed by the laser range finder, denoted as y. After recording, turn off the laser range finder and rotate the measuring ruler counterclockwise to coincide with the level.

[0050] 5. Calculate the slope gradient and angle:

[0051] As shown in Figure 4 , a right triangle is formed with points A, C, and D as vertices, where AD is the hypotenuse; a right triangle is formed with points B, C, and D as vertices, where BD is the hypotenuse.

[0052] (1) As shown in Figure 4 , in △ACD, the following relationships exist:

[0053] ∠DAC = α; AD = q + x; AC = q + y + k; DC = z;

[0054] sin α = DC / AD = z / (q + x); cos α = AC / AD = (q + y + k) / (q + x);

[0055] Based on the above two equations, we can derive: z = (q + x)· sin α; k=(q+x)· cos α-qy.

[0056] (2) such as Figure 4 As shown, △BCD has the following relationships:

[0057] ∠CBD=β; tan β = z / k.

[0058] (3) Calculate the slope gradient: z / k = [(q+x)· sin α] / [(q+x)· cos α-qy];

[0059] (4) Calculate the slope angle: β = arc tan (z / k)= arc tan {[(q+x)· sin α] / [(q+x)· cos α-qy]}.
