Detailed Implementation

[0026] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. The embodiments of the present invention include, but are not limited to, the following embodiments.

[0027] Example 1:

[0028] like Figure 1-6 As shown, this utility model provides a novel sensor for seismic and electric field detection, comprising: a seismic sensor 1 and electrodes 2 mounted on the seismic sensor 1. The seismic sensor 1 includes a bottom shell 11, an upper shell 12, and a sensor body 13. The bottom shell 11 and the upper shell 12 are inserted to form an outer shell, and the sensor body 13 is fixed inside the outer shell. A data cable 18 is mounted on the upper shell 12. The electrodes 2 are fixed to the bottom of the bottom shell 11. The data cable 18 is electrically connected to the electrodes 2 and the sensor body 13, and is used to transmit the seismic signals collected by the sensor body 13 and the electric field signals collected by the electrodes 2. The signals are transmitted to the corresponding devices for subsequent research and analysis. The sensor body 13 can be a MEMS accelerometer (frequency response 0.1-2000Hz), and the electrode 2 can be a platinum-plated titanium alloy needle array, supporting DC to 10kHz wideband electric field measurement. In use, the electrode 2 is inserted into a borehole in the tunnel rock wall for fixation. The seismic sensor 1 is fixed to the rock wall using the electrode 2. A single drilling can simultaneously install and fix the seismic sensor 1 and the electrode 2, reducing the number of boreholes required for signal acquisition and greatly improving the installation efficiency of the equipment. Moreover, after the electrode 2 is inserted into the rock wall, it can collect the electric field signal within the rock wall. Furthermore, an earthquake will cause the seismic sensor 1 to vibrate through the electrode 2, and the sensor body 13 will collect the seismic signal. The seismic signal and the electric field signal are transmitted to external devices through the data line 18. After the external devices study and analyze the data, they can determine the underground geological information.

[0029] By setting up a seismic sensor 1 and an electrode 2 installed on the seismic sensor 1, the seismic sensor 1 is fixed in the installation position using the electrode 2. This simultaneously fixes the electric field signal acquisition device and the seismic signal acquisition device, effectively improving the installation efficiency of the signal acquisition device.

[0030] Example 2:

[0031] like Figure 3-4As shown, in this embodiment, a threaded tube 14 is installed on the bottom shell 11, and a threaded connector 21 is installed on one end of the electrode 2. The threaded connector 21 is screwed into the threaded tube 14, thereby fixing the electrode 2 on the bottom shell 11 (earthquake sensor 1).

[0032] By providing the threaded tube 14 and the threaded connector 21, the installation and removal of the electrode 2 can be facilitated.

[0033] Example 3:

[0034] like Figure 5-6 As shown, in this embodiment, a metal positioning tube 15 is installed on the upper shell 12. The positioning tube 15 is connected to the data cable 18. The sensor body 13 adopts a metal shell and a MEMS accelerometer is installed inside. A boss 16 is provided at the top of the sensor body 13. The boss 16 is inserted into the positioning tube 15 to position the sensor body 13. The metal shell of the sensor body 13 is pressed together with the threaded tube 14 and the positioning tube 15 to conduct electrical signals. The electrical signal 5 of the electrode 2 is transmitted to the data cable 18 through the threaded tube 14, the metal shell of the sensor body 13, and the positioning tube 15.

[0035] By setting up a positioning tube 15 and a boss 16 made of metal, the sensor body 13 can be easily positioned and installed, and the electrode 2 can easily transmit signals.

[0036] Example 4:

[0037] like Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, a spring 17 is installed inside the positioning tube 15. When the boss 16 is inserted into the positioning tube 15, the spring 17 is compressed. The compression of the spring 17 presses the bottom of the sensor body 13 tightly against the end of the threaded tube 14. It is worth noting that the wire in the data line 18 used to transmit the signal of the electrode 2 can also be connected to the spring 17.

[0038] By installing a spring 17 inside the positioning tube 15, the spring force of the spring 17 can be used to press the sensor body 13 tightly against one end of the threaded tube 14.

[0039] Example 5:

[0040] like Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, a first connecting line 19 and a second connecting line 20 are installed on the sensor body 13. The second connecting line 20 is connected to the outer shell of the sensor body 13, and one end of it is connected to the data line 18 to transmit the electric field signal collected by the electrode 2. The first connecting line 19 is electrically connected to the accelerometer inside the sensor body 13, and one end of it is connected to the data line to transmit the seismic signal collected by the seismic sensor 1.

[0041] By installing a first connecting line 19 and a second connecting line 20 on the sensor body 13, seismic signals and electric field signals can be easily transmitted.

[0042] Example 6:

[0043] like Figure 4-5 As shown in this embodiment, a slot 111 is provided on the bottom shell 11, and an elastic buckle 122 is installed on the upper shell 12. During installation, the elastic buckle 122 of the upper shell 12 is inserted into the slot 111, and the limiting protrusion on the inner side of the elastic buckle 122 is engaged with the bottom edge of the slot 111, realizing the snap-fit ​​installation of the upper shell 12 and the bottom shell 11. Compared with the screw installation method, this structure facilitates the assembly of the seismic sensor 1 and the replacement of the sensor body 13. It is worth noting that a sealing ring should be installed on the contact surface between the upper shell 12 and the bottom shell 11 for sealing.

[0044] The assembly of the seismic sensor 1 can be facilitated by setting the slot 111 and the elastic buckle 122.

[0045] Working principle: When in use, electrode 2 is inserted into the borehole in the tunnel rock wall and fixed. Electrode 2 is used to fix seismic sensor 1 to the rock wall. One drilling can realize the synchronous installation and fixing of seismic sensor 1 and electrode 2 at the same time, which reduces the number of boreholes required for signal acquisition and can greatly improve the installation efficiency of the equipment.
