Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of observation tower base structure technology, specifically an integrated observation tower base structure. Background Technology
[0002] When constructing large bridges under complex geological conditions, observation towers are typically built around the bridge to facilitate the observation and layout of control points and coordinate points. During surveying and layout work, construction surveyors can carry surveying equipment such as forced centering plates to the observation platform of the tower for relevant observations.
[0003] The prior art, disclosed in CN221546554U, provides an observation tower belonging to the field of building construction technology. It includes a fixed base and an observation platform. Several telescopic rods are fixedly installed on the fixed base, and the observation platform is fixed to the telescopic ends of the telescopic rods. A hydraulic cylinder is fixed on the fixed base, and the output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the observation platform. A first ladder is rotatably connected to the observation platform, and a second ladder is slidably connected to the first ladder. Several limiting grooves are provided on the fixed base, and the second ladder is inserted into and limited within these grooves. This application, through the installation of a height-adjustable observation platform, allows for adjustment of the observation height to avoid obstructions and reduce the difficulty of observation. The relative sliding arrangement of the first and second ladders allows for adjustment during the lifting and lowering of the observation platform, reducing the difficulty of climbing. The limiting grooves effectively ensure the stability of the second ladder, preventing it from slipping during climbing and improving safety.
[0004] The aforementioned patent mainly involves adding a retractable and movable ladder to the front of the observation tower. This allows the ladder to be adjusted when the observation platform is raised or lowered, reducing the difficulty of climbing. However, this method of reducing climbing difficulty requires adding a large fixed base and ladder to the outside of the observation tower. This can lead to the observation tower being unable to be installed if the reserved installation space is small, greatly increasing the footprint of the observation tower during installation and making it inconvenient for actual installation. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide an integrated observation tower base structure, thus solving the above-mentioned technical problems.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model employs the following technical solution: an integrated observation tower base structure includes a base plate. A controller is fixedly installed on one side of the base plate. A hydraulic cylinder is fixedly installed at the end of the base plate away from the ground. An installation platform for erecting the observation platform is fixedly installed on the side of the hydraulic cylinder away from the base plate. A lower ladder assembly is movably installed on the side of the base plate away from the controller. An upper ladder assembly is movably installed on the side of the lower ladder assembly away from the ground. The end of the upper ladder assembly away from the base plate is movably mounted on the installation platform. Several support components are fixedly installed at the end of the installation platform near the base plate. These support components are fixedly installed on the base plate. A fixing block for insertion into a pit is fixedly installed at the end of the base plate away from the installation platform. The fixing block for insertion into a pit at the end of the base plate away from the installation platform makes the internal structure of the integrated observation tower base structure more robust and reliable, greatly improving the safety of its use.
[0007] Furthermore, the upper ladder assembly includes a first movable plate. An upper ladder body is fixedly mounted on the outermost end of the first movable plate near the base plate. A first electric actuator is fixedly mounted on the end of the first movable plate away from the upper ladder body. Fixing strips are fixedly mounted on both sides of the end of the upper ladder body away from the base plate. Several cylindrical grooves are spaced apart on the inner side of each fixing strip. First limiting strips are fixedly mounted on both sides of the first movable plate. The first movable plate can move horizontally within the mounting platform via the first limiting strips. This horizontal movement of the first movable plate within the mounting platform prevents it from shifting during movement, thus improving the stability of the internal structure of the integrated observation tower base.
[0008] Furthermore, the lower ladder assembly includes a second movable plate. Second limiting strips are fixedly installed on both sides of the second movable plate. A second electric actuator is fixedly installed on the end of the second movable plate near the controller. The second movable plate can move within the base plate via the second limiting strips. A fixing component is fixedly installed on the side of the second movable plate away from the second electric actuator. Rectangular strips are fixedly installed on both sides of the fixing component away from the second movable plate. The fixing component is limited in its movement within the fixing strips via these rectangular strips. This limitation in movement of the fixing component within the fixing strips prevents offset when the upper and lower ladder assemblies move relative to each other, greatly improving the accuracy of the internal structure operation of the integrated observation tower base.
[0009] Furthermore, the fixing component includes a lower ladder body. A rectangular slot is formed inside the lower ladder body at the end furthest from the second moving plate. A second spring column is fixedly installed within this rectangular slot. An electric actuator is placed inside the second spring column and is remotely connected to the controller. A movable insert is fixedly installed on the second spring column. This insert is used to insert into the cylindrical slot within the fixing strip for fixation. The insertion into the cylindrical slot within the fixing strip makes the internal structure of the integrated observation tower base more robust and reliable, greatly improving the stability of the integrated observation tower base structure in use.
[0010] Furthermore, the second electric actuator has a connection port at the end furthest from the second moving plate. The second electric actuator is connected to the controller via the connection port, and the first electric actuator is remotely connected to the controller. This remote connection allows the controller to directly control the extension and retraction of the first electric actuator, significantly improving the intelligence of the internal structure operation of the integrated observation tower base.
[0011] Furthermore, the support assembly includes a sleeve plate with a slotted groove inside. A first spring column is fixedly installed at the bottom of the slot, and a movable limiting strip is placed at the top of the first spring column. A telescopic plate is fixedly installed at the end of the movable limiting strip away from the first spring column. The telescopic plate can move up and down within the slot of the movable limiting strip. This vertical movement of the telescopic plate accommodates the vertical movement of the entire integrated observation tower base structure, improving the practicality of the integrated observation tower base structure's operation.
[0012] Furthermore, both the upper and lower ladder components are V-shaped. This V-shape allows the ladders of the integrated observation tower base structure to move horizontally while maintaining relative movement, significantly improving the operability of the internal structure of the integrated observation tower base. Beneficial effects
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] This invention allows the upper and lower ladder components to be movably installed on the mounting platform and base plate, and the upper and lower ladder components can move relative to each other. This makes the integrated observation tower base structure more convenient for observers to climb onto the observation platform, while reducing the area of the foundation required for the entire observation tower, thus greatly improving the practicality of the integrated observation tower base structure.

[0023] Example
[0024] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 6This application provides a further detailed description. An integrated observation tower base structure includes a base plate 5. A controller 2 is fixedly installed on one side of the base plate 5. A hydraulic cylinder 7 is fixedly installed at the end of the base plate 5 away from the ground. An installation platform 4 for constructing an observation platform is fixedly installed on the side of the hydraulic cylinder 7 away from the base plate 5. A lower ladder assembly 6 is movably installed on the side of the base plate 5 away from the controller 2. An upper ladder assembly 1 is movably installed on the side of the lower ladder assembly 6 away from the ground. The end of the upper ladder assembly 1 away from the base plate 5 is movably installed on the installation platform 4. Several support assemblies 3 are fixedly installed on the end of the installation platform 4 near the base plate 5. The support assemblies 3 are fixedly installed on the base plate 5. A fixing block 8 for insertion into a pit is fixedly installed on the end of the base plate 5 away from the installation platform 4. The upper ladder assembly 1… The system includes a first movable plate 12, with an upper ladder 15 fixedly mounted on the outermost side of the first movable plate 12 near the base plate 5. A first electric actuator 13 is fixedly mounted on the end of the first movable plate 12 away from the upper ladder 15. Fixed strips 11 are fixedly mounted on both sides of the end of the upper ladder 15 away from the base plate 5. Several cylindrical grooves are spaced apart on the inner side of the fixed strips 11. First limiting strips 14 are fixedly mounted on both sides of the first movable plate 12, allowing the first movable plate 12 to move horizontally within the mounting platform 4 via the first limiting strips 14. The lower ladder assembly 6 includes a second movable plate 63, with second limiting strips 62 fixedly mounted on both sides of the second movable plate 63. A second electric actuator 64 is fixedly mounted on the end of the second movable plate 63 near the controller 2. The movable plate 63 can move within the base plate 5 via the second limiting strip 62. A fixing component 61 is fixedly installed on the side of the second movable plate 63 away from the second electric push rod 64. Rectangular strips are fixedly installed on both sides of the end of the fixing component 61 away from the second movable plate 63. The fixing component 61 is limited to move within the fixing strip 11 by the rectangular strips. The fixing component 61 includes a lower ladder 611. A rectangular groove is formed inside the lower ladder 611 at the end away from the second movable plate 63. A second spring post 612 is fixedly installed in the rectangular groove of the lower ladder 611. An electric push rod is placed inside the second spring post 612. The electric push rod is remotely connected to the controller 2. A movable insert 613 is fixedly installed on the second spring post 612. The insert 613 is used to be inserted into the cylindrical groove inside the fixed strip 11 for fixation. The second electric push rod 64 has a connection port 65 at the end away from the second moving plate 63. The second electric push rod 64 is connected to the controller 2 through the connection port 65. The first electric push rod 13 is remotely connected to the controller 2. The support assembly 3 includes a sleeve plate 32. A strip groove is opened inside the sleeve plate 32. A first spring post 33 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the strip groove. A moving limit strip 34 is placed at the top of the first spring post 33. A telescopic plate 31 is fixedly installed at the end of the moving limit strip 34 away from the first spring post 33. The telescopic plate 31 can move up and down in the strip groove of the moving limit strip 34. The upper ladder assembly 1 and the lower ladder assembly 6 are both V-shaped.
[0025] Because the fixing strip 11 is U-shaped and has several circular slots inside, when the insert 613 retracts through the electric push rod inside the second spring post 612 and the lower ladder 611 moves to the appropriate position within the upper ladder 15, the insert 613, which extends outward through the electric push rod and spring, will directly insert into the U-shaped slot within the fixing strip 11, thereby fixing the upper ladder assembly 1 and the lower ladder assembly 6.
[0026] Since the first electric actuator 13, the second electric actuator 64, the hydraulic cylinder 7, and the electric actuator in the second spring column 612 are all electrically connected to the controller 2, the controller 2 can directly perform intelligent extension and retraction control on the first electric actuator 13, the second electric actuator 64, the hydraulic cylinder 7, and the electric actuator in the second spring column 612.
[0027] The first electric actuator 13 is located inside the mounting platform 4, and the second electric actuator 64 is located inside the base plate 5. Therefore, when the controller 2 controls the operation of the first electric actuator 13 and the second electric actuator 64, it will directly cause the first moving plate 12 and the second moving plate 63 to move within the mounting platform 4 and the base plate 5, respectively.
[0028] Since the top of the telescopic plate 31 is fixed on the mounting platform 4 and the bottom of the sleeve plate 32 is fixed on the base plate 5, when the hydraulic cylinder 7 moves the mounting platform 4 to extend or retract, the telescopic plate 31 will also move up and down within the sleeve plate 32, thus supporting the entire integrated observation tower base structure.
[0029] The working principle of this utility model is explained below: Unless otherwise specified, all internal mechanical structures of the integrated observation tower base structure are fixed by threads. To allow for a more intuitive observation of the technical features, the bolt connections are appropriately concealed in the diagram. During installation, the operator inserts the fixing block 8 into the pre-dug installation pit and secures the integrated observation tower base structure by installing the base plate 5 on the ground. When the integrated observation tower base structure needs to extend or retract, the observer directly controls the hydraulic cylinder 7 via the controller 2 to extend or retract, thereby causing the entire integrated observation tower base structure to extend or retract accordingly. During this extension or retraction, the telescopic plate 31 also extends or retracts within the sleeve 32 via the first spring column 33 and the moving limit strip 34 below it, thus ensuring greater stability of the mounting platform 4. During the expansion and contraction of the integrated observation tower base structure, the fixing component 61 slides within the fixing strip 11, while the first electric push rod 13 extends and contracts along with the first moving plate 12. The electric push rod within the second spring column 612 retracts along with the insert 613, and the second electric push rod 64 extends and contracts along with the second moving plate 63. This allows the upper ladder component 1 and the lower ladder component 6 to move relative to each other to maintain balance when the integrated observation tower base structure expands and contracts. Once the upper ladder component 1 and the lower ladder component 6 are stable, the second spring column 612 extends upward with the insert 613 and inserts it into the cylindrical groove within the fixing strip 11 for fixation. Since the upper ladder component 1 and the lower ladder component 6 are both within the integrated observation tower base structure, a large installation space is not required when installing the integrated observation tower base structure, greatly improving its practicality.
[0030] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
