Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of total station auxiliary equipment technology, specifically a total station auxiliary aiming device for topographic surveying. Background Technology
[0002] In the process of topographic surveying, a total station is needed to measure the terrain and prominent features such as ridges and valleys. During the measurement process, the prism is placed on the surveyed terrain, and then the total station is used to locate the prism. In order to facilitate the location of the prism, when the terrain is complex or the prism is far away, it is often necessary to use a total station auxiliary aiming device for topographic surveying.
[0003] According to the patent application CN218268174U, "A total station auxiliary aiming device for topographic surveying, relating to the field of total station auxiliary equipment technology, has two positioning plates, an alignment mechanism installed between the two positioning plates, and a clamping mechanism installed on the fixed end of the alignment mechanism. A small monocular telescope is connected in contact within the clamping mechanism, and the position of the central axis of the alignment mechanism coincides with the position of the central axis of the positioning plate. The total station auxiliary aiming device for topographic surveying described in this utility model adjusts the position of the total station auxiliary aiming device on the lens of the total station through the alignment mechanism, so that the central axis of the total station auxiliary aiming device corresponds to the central axis of the lens of the total station. The total station auxiliary aiming device is fixed on the lens of the total station by a suction cup, so that the orientation of the small monocular telescope is the same as the orientation of the lens of the total station, which facilitates the staff to find the prism."
[0004] Regarding the above description, the applicant believes the following issues exist:
[0005] In use, this utility model involves placing the auxiliary aiming device for a total station used for topographic surveying onto the lens of the total station. Pulling the two first connecting rods to both sides positions the coarse aiming device on the lens between the two connecting rods. The operator then rotates a dial, which in turn drives a gear through a rotating rod. However, in actual use, because the device only uses a suction cup to limit the movement between the device and the total station, and because the total station is used outdoors in high temperatures or strong winds, the device is prone to detaching from the total station. Furthermore, since the device is manually installed, the monocular telescope and the total station's observation position may not be on the same horizontal plane, affecting the observation results. Therefore, an improved auxiliary aiming device for a total station used for topographic surveying is needed to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0038] Example 2:
[0039] Based on Embodiment 1, the existing device is manually installed by staff, which can easily lead to the monocular telescope and total station observation positions not being on the same horizontal plane, thus affecting the observation results. Therefore, this utility model provides Embodiment 2 to solve the above-mentioned technical problem. Please refer to Embodiment 2.
