According to the embodiment of the invention, the buffer component can buffer the inclinometer entering the accommodating cavity, so that the situation that the inclinometer which freely falls off due to misoperation directly punctures the head main body is avoided, and the situation that the inclinometer enters a soil body and is finally damaged due to the fact that the inclinometer punctures the head main body is avoided.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of measurement technology, and in particular to tube adapters and inclinometer tubes. Background Technology

[0002] An inclinometer tube is a measuring tube pre-buried underground to observe the horizontal displacement inside the soil. The inclinometer tube is composed of multiple sections spliced ​​together, with a conical plug at the bottom for closure. Adjacent sections are secured with tape, then tied to a reinforcing cage and sunk into the excavated well. After concrete is poured, the foundation pit is excavated, and an inclinometer is used to monitor changes in the inclinometer borehole caused by the excavation.

[0003] However, most existing inclinometer tubes and cone plugs are connected by plug-in joints, and the plugs do not have a buffer device. This often causes the inclinometer to fall freely when it is inserted into the bottom of the tube due to improper operation. This can directly puncture the bottom of the tube or impact the cone plug to the point that it is disconnected from the inclinometer tube and then penetrates into the soil layer and cannot be pulled out, resulting in the instrument getting stuck.

[0037] An inclinometer tube is a measuring tube pre-buried underground to observe the horizontal displacement inside the soil. The inclinometer tube is composed of multiple sections spliced ​​together, with a conical plug at the bottom for closure. Adjacent sections are secured with tape, then tied to a reinforcing cage and sunk into the excavated well. After concrete is poured, the foundation pit is excavated, and an inclinometer is used to monitor changes in the inclinometer borehole caused by the excavation.

[0038] However, most existing inclinometer tubes and cone plugs are connected by plug-in joints, and the plugs do not have a buffer device. This often causes the inclinometer to fall freely when it is inserted into the bottom of the tube due to improper operation. This can directly puncture the bottom of the tube or impact the cone plug to the point that it is disconnected from the inclinometer tube and then penetrates into the soil layer and cannot be pulled out, resulting in the instrument getting stuck.

[0039] Based on the above problems, the buffer component in this embodiment can buffer the inclinometer entering the receiving cavity, thereby preventing the inclinometer from directly penetrating the head body due to improper operation and falling freely, and thus preventing the inclinometer from entering the soil and ultimately being damaged due to penetrating the head body.

[0040] Figure 1 The diagram shown is a cross-sectional view of the overall structure of an embodiment of this disclosure. It is for fitting and connecting to the opening of a pipe body equipped with an inclinometer inside the pipe. Figure 1 In the example, the head body 10 forms a receiving cavity 101 with an opening. Exemplarily, the receiving cavity 101 is formed by a recess in the top wall of the head body 10. The buffer member 20 is disposed in the receiving cavity 101 to provide buffering when the tube body is connected to the head body 10 and the inclinometer enters the receiving cavity 101.

[0041] For example, the head body 10 also includes a tapered drilling section 11 formed at the bottom.

[0042] The advantage of the above-mentioned configuration is that the buffer member 20 in this embodiment can buffer the inclinometer entering the receiving cavity 101, thereby preventing the inclinometer from falling freely due to improper operation and directly penetrating the head body 10, and thus preventing the inclinometer from entering the silt and ultimately being damaged due to penetrating the head body 10.

[0043] exist Figure 1 In the example, the buffer member 20 includes a support plate 21 and at least one buffer element 22; the support plate 21 is slidably coupled to the receiving cavity 101 along the depth direction, and the at least one buffer element 22 is disposed between the receiving cavity 101 and the support plate 21. Exemplarily, the shape and size of the support plate 21 are adapted to the cross-sectional shape of the receiving cavity 101; for example, the cross-section of the receiving cavity 101 is circular, and the support plate 21 is also circular. In another embodiment, the cross-section of the support plate 21 and the receiving cavity 101 may also be rectangular.

[0044] In this embodiment, the buffer 22 is implemented as a single spring. One end of the buffer 22 is connected to the bottom of the receiving cavity 101, and the other end is connected to the bottom wall of the support plate 21. Thus, when the inclinometer entering the receiving cavity 101 abuts against the support plate 21, the buffer 22 is compressed due to the force, thereby buffering the inclinometer and reducing the impact force of the inclinometer on the head body 10, preventing the head body 10 from detaching from the inclinometer tube.

[0045] Figure 2The diagram shown is a cross-sectional view of the overall structure of another embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 2 In this example, the buffer 22 is implemented as an elastic block, and the buffer 22, which is implemented as an elastic block, is disposed on the bottom wall of the receiving cavity 101. In this way, when the inclinometer entering the receiving cavity 101 comes into contact with the elastic block, the elastic block is compressed due to the force, thus forming a buffer for the inclinometer.

[0046] In another embodiment, the buffer 22 is implemented as a plurality of buffers, and the plurality of buffers 22 are arranged around the inner sidewall of the receiving cavity 101. One end of each buffer 22 is connected to the inner sidewall of the receiving cavity 101 with the connection point located above the support plate 21, and the other end is connected to the top wall of the support plate 21. In this embodiment, the buffer 22 may also be implemented as an elastic strip.

[0047] Back to Figure 1 In the example, the receiving cavity 101 is provided with at least one stop plate 30 for limiting the downward movement depth of the support plate 21. Further exemplarily, the height of the stop plate 30 in the receiving cavity 101 is higher than the height of the support plate 21 after the buffer member 22 is subjected to extreme compression. Those skilled in the art will understand that the stop plate 30 can ensure the height position of the inclinometer after each contact with the support plate 21 (i.e., each time the inclinometer contacts the support plate 21, the support plate 21 moves downward to contact the stop plate 30), thereby ensuring that the quantitative values ​​of multiple measurements remain unchanged, and thus improving measurement accuracy.

[0048] In this embodiment, the stop plates 30 are implemented as a pair, with the pair of stop plates 30 disposed opposite each other on the inner sidewall of the receiving cavity 101. The advantage of this arrangement is that the opposing pair of stop plates 30 can prevent the support plate 21 from tilting due to being stopped on one side, thus avoiding inaccurate measurements. In another embodiment, the stop plate 30 is implemented as a single annular plate.

[0049] For example, at least the top of the support plate 21 is made of rubber. This design prevents damage to the inclinometer, which comes into contact with the support plate 21, due to the high surface hardness of the support plate 21, thus protecting the inclinometer. In another embodiment, the support plate 21 is entirely made of rubber.

[0050] Figure 3 The illustration shown is an embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 1 A sectional view of AA. Figure 1 and Figure 3In the example, the inner wall of the receiving cavity 101 is provided with four evenly distributed wheel grooves 40. Those skilled in the art will understand that the measuring wheel of the inclinometer first engages with two opposite wheel grooves 40 and moves downwards, then engages with the other two opposite wheel grooves and moves downwards, performing two measurements.

[0051] exist Figure 1 In the example, the head body 10 has a threaded portion 50 at its top. Those skilled in the art will understand that the threaded portion 50 is used to connect to the bottom of the inclinometer tube; in this embodiment, the threaded portion 50 is implemented as an external thread. In another embodiment, the threaded portion 50 is implemented as an internal thread. It should be noted that when the head body 10 is connected to the inclinometer tube, the wheel groove 40 of the inclinometer tube must be aligned and connected with the wheel groove 40 on the head body 10 to facilitate the smooth sliding of the inclinometer's measuring wheel from the inclinometer tube to the head body 10.

[0052] Figure 4 The diagram shown is a cross-sectional view of the overall structure of another embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 4 In this example, the head body 10 includes a connecting pipe 12 and a drill block 13 detachably connected to one port of the connecting pipe 12. The receiving cavity 101 is formed in the connecting pipe 12, and the drilling section 11 is formed in the drill block 13. In this embodiment, one end of the buffer 22 is connected to the top wall of the drill block 13, and the other end is connected to the bottom wall of the support plate 21. Exemplarily, the detachable connection is implemented as a threaded connection. Further exemplarily, the drill block 13 is implemented as a solid block. Those skilled in the art will understand that when the connecting pipe 12 or the drill block 13 is damaged, the operator can replace the connecting pipe 12 and the drill block 13 with new ones, thereby reducing economic costs.

[0053] In another embodiment of this disclosure, a clinometer tube is provided, including the tube body adapter.

[0054] In summary, this disclosure provides a tube adapter and a clinometer tube. The tube adapter includes a head body and a buffer member. The head body includes a conical drilling section formed at the bottom and a receiving cavity formed by a recess in the top wall. The buffer member is disposed in the receiving cavity to provide cushioning for the clinometer when it comes into contact with a clinometer inserted into the receiving cavity. The clinometer tube includes the tube adapter. The buffer member in this disclosure can buffer the clinometer entering the receiving cavity, thereby preventing the clinometer from directly penetrating the head body due to improper operation and falling freely, and further preventing the clinometer from entering the silt and ultimately being damaged due to penetrating the head body.

[0055] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of this disclosure and are not intended to limit this disclosure. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this disclosure. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in this disclosure should still be covered by the protection scope of this disclosure.
