Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of engineering measurement technology, and in particular to an auxiliary device for monitoring underwater surface subsidence. Background Technology
[0002] In underground engineering projects such as subways and municipal pipelines that need to cross water bodies, it is often chosen to pass under the water system to avoid detours or disruption to surface traffic, while using the shield tunneling method to ensure safe construction. However, it is necessary to monitor the settlement of the underwater waterproofing layer during the shield tunneling process to determine whether any risks may arise.
[0003] Currently, total stations are typically used in conjunction with monitoring auxiliary devices for monitoring. These devices are placed underwater and equipped with monitoring points (such as reflectors or monitoring prisms). The total station is then used to periodically measure the elevation or three-dimensional coordinate changes at each point, and the settlement is calculated by comparing these measurements with a baseline value. The monitoring auxiliary device consists of a support rod and a reflector located at the top of the support rod. In use, the bottom of the support rod is inserted into the water, leaving the reflector exposed to the air.
[0004] The support rod of the aforementioned monitoring auxiliary device is of fixed length, which limits its applicability. In addition, its installation is unstable, and the reflector is prone to shifting, which leads to difficulties in aiming the total station and low accuracy of the measured data. Utility Model Content

The handle nut is used to allow the telescopic inner rod to move up and down along the inner wall of the telescopic sleeve when loosened, and to allow the wave-breaking support to rotate.
[0010] A measuring prism, which is rotatably mounted on top of the telescopic sleeve.
[0011] In one embodiment of this utility model, the wave-breaking support has a spindle-shaped structure.

[0013] In one embodiment of this utility model, the slotted threaded portion includes a plurality of locking pieces, which form an annular locking seat. The bottoms of two adjacent locking pieces are connected by a connecting strip, and the upper part of the connecting strip forms a strip-shaped opening. The annular locking seat is provided with external threads.

[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of this utility model clearer, the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0026] This utility model embodiment provides an auxiliary device for monitoring underwater surface subsidence, which is used in conjunction with a total station, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes:
[0027] The support frame 1 includes: a support base 1-1 and a plurality of brackets 1-2 arranged around the support base 1-1, and each bracket 1-2 is provided with a counterweight unit 1-3;
[0028] A telescopic wave-breaking assembly 2 includes: a telescopic inner rod 2-1, a telescopic sleeve 2-2, a handle nut 2-3, and a wave-breaking support 2-4. The bottom of the telescopic inner rod 2-1 is mounted on the support base 1-1, and its top is connected to the telescopic sleeve 2-2 via the handle nut 2-3. The wave-breaking support 2-4 is mounted on the telescopic sleeve 2-2. The handle nut 2-3 is used to allow the telescopic inner rod 2-1 to move up and down along the inner wall of the telescopic sleeve 2-2 when loosened, and to allow the wave-breaking support 2-4 to rotate. In one possible implementation, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the wave-breaking support 2-4 has a spindle-shaped structure; it is pointed at both ends and wide in the middle; the measuring prism 3 is set at the top of the telescopic sleeve 2-2.
[0029] The underwater surface settlement monitoring auxiliary device provided by this utility model is suitable for monitoring the deformation of the riverbed surface. During measurement, the support 1-2 is fixed to the riverbed surface by the counterweight unit 1-3. The handle nut 2-3 is loosened, and the height of the telescopic inner rod 2-1 and the telescopic sleeve 2-2 are adjusted as needed so that the wave-breaking support 2-4 is in contact with the water flow plane. The wave-breaking support 2-4 is rotated so that the sharp corners at both ends face the direction of water flow. The measuring prism 3 is then placed on the top of the telescopic sleeve 2-2. The measuring prism 3 is aimed at by a total station on the bridge or on the bank, thereby realizing the monitoring of underwater surface settlement.
[0030] The underwater surface settlement monitoring auxiliary device provided in this embodiment of the utility model can change the height of the measuring prism 3 by setting the telescopic inner rod 2-1 and the telescopic sleeve 2-2, so that it can be used in water systems of different depths and has a wider range of applications. By setting the wave-breaking support 2-4, it can offset part of the impact of the water flow and prevent the measuring prism 3 from shifting position, thus ensuring measurement accuracy. In addition, by setting the handle nut 2-3, which cooperates with the telescopic inner rod 2-1 and the telescopic sleeve 2-2, it can realize the rotation of the wave-breaking support 2-4 and the height adjustment, which is simple and quick.
[0031] The structure of the telescopic sleeve 2-2 and the handle nut 2-3 will be described below.
[0032] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the bottom of the telescopic sleeve 2-2 is provided with a slotted threaded part 2-5. The end of the slotted threaded part 2-5 tapers inward to form a cone shape. The telescopic inner rod 2-1 passes through the bottom of the slotted threaded part 2-5 and is slidably disposed inside the telescopic sleeve 2-2.
[0033] The handle nut 2-3 is used to clamp and fix the bottom of the slotted threaded part 2-5 to the outer wall of the telescopic inner rod 2-1 when tightened.
[0034] like Figure 4 As shown, the slotted threaded portion 2-5 includes a plurality of locking pieces 2-5-1, which together form an annular locking seat 2-5-2. The bottoms of two adjacent locking pieces 2-5-1 are connected by a connecting strip 2-5-3, and a strip-shaped opening 2-5-4 is formed on the upper part of the connecting strip 2-5-3.
[0035] The annular locking seat 2-5-2 has an external thread on its exterior, and the handle nut 2-3 has a tapered internal thread (not shown in the figure) that matches the external thread. The outer surface of the handle nut 2-3 has anti-slip ridges 2-3-1. The anti-slip ridges 2-3-1 make it easy for construction personnel to apply force to rotate the handle nut.
[0036] To facilitate the installation and disassembly of the measuring prism 3, bracket 1-2 and counterweight unit 1-3, the installation structure is further described below.
[0037] Regarding the installation method of the measuring prism 3, in one possible implementation, the support frame 1 further includes a brake bolt, which is located on the upper part of the telescopic sleeve 2-2. The brake bolt is used to fix the measuring prism 3 on the telescopic sleeve 2-2, so that the brake bolt can be loosened to remove or rotate the measuring prism 3, so that the total station can aim at the measuring prism 3.
[0038] Regarding the installation method of brackets 1-2, in one possible implementation, such as Figure 1 As shown, the support base 1-1 is provided with a plurality of inclined through holes, and each bracket 1-2 is provided with an inclined blind hole at its top. The bracket 1-2 and the support base 1-1 are connected by fixing bolts. That is, for any bracket 1-2, the connection between the bracket 1-2 and the support base 1-1 is achieved by passing the fixing bolt through the inclined through hole and fixing it in the inclined blind hole at the top of the bracket 1-2. In this embodiment of the utility model, the number of brackets 1-2 and the number of inclined through holes are not specifically limited. For example, the number is 3, and the 3 inclined through holes are arranged around its axis.
[0039] Regarding the installation method of counterweight units 1-3, as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the counterweight unit 1-3 is fixed to the bracket 1-2 by fastening bolts. The counterweight unit 1-3 can be installed and removed by loosening and tightening the fastening bolts. Multiple sets of the counterweight unit 1-3 can be set as needed, such as 5kg, 10kg or 15kg. The material of the counterweight unit can be selected as needed, such as cement or steel. This utility model embodiment does not make specific limitations in this regard.
