Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of testing equipment technology, specifically a road and bridge engineering flatness testing instrument. Background Technology
[0002] Road surface smoothness refers to the deviation of a road or bridge surface from an ideal plane, generally referring to the deviation of the longitudinal unevenness of the road surface. Road surface smoothness is an important indicator for evaluating road and bridge pavements and for the acceptance of pavement construction.
[0003] For the smoothness testing of continuous road surfaces, an eight-wheel continuous smoothness testing instrument is generally used. It typically includes an eight-wheel moving device with a testing wheel in the middle. The testing wheel contacts the ground under the pressure of a spring. As the device moves along the road surface, the height of the testing wheel changes due to the undulations of the ground. By using a displacement sensor to measure the change in the height of the testing wheel in the vertical direction, the smoothness of the road surface can be detected.
[0004] However, during the movement of the testing wheel, dust, mud and other substances will adhere to the wheel surface, causing the wheel surface to be uneven, which will cause periodic fluctuations in the testing data and affect the testing results. In addition, the single testing wheel design is easily affected by small stones or mud clods on the road, resulting in greater unpredictability in the testing results and requiring repeated testing.

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0026] Example 1:
[0027] Please see Figure 1-4 The present invention will describe the above technical solution in detail through the following embodiments:
[0028] A road and bridge engineering flatness testing instrument, comprising:
[0029] The moving component 1 is used for moving the device. The moving component 1 has a detection component 2 in the middle. The detection component 2 includes multiple detection wheels 27. Each detection wheel 27 is connected to a set of measuring components. The measuring components are used to measure the height change of the detection wheel 27. The measuring components are installed in the middle of the ground of the moving component 1 through a horizontal adjustment component. The top surface of the detection wheel 27 is provided with a cleaning component 3. The cleaning component 3 is used to clean the wheel surface of the detection wheel 27.
[0030] The mobile assembly 1 includes a frame 11, a wheel frame 12 rotatably mounted on the side of the frame 11, movable wheels 13 rotatably mounted on both sides of the end of the wheel frame 12, and a shock absorber 14 rotatably mounted between the wheel frame 12 and the frame 11.
[0031] The frame 11 can be moved by human power or by known traction equipment. The shock absorber 14 is used to keep the frame 11 stable and reduce the impact of vibration on the measurement results.
[0032] The horizontal adjustment assembly includes a guide rail 22, which is vertically mounted on the center of the ground of the frame 11 by bolts. Several sliders 23 are slidably mounted on the guide rail 22. A fixing bolt 24 is threadedly connected to one side of the slider 23, and the end face of the fixing bolt 24 abuts against the guide rail 22.
[0033] There are three sliders 23 in total, and the guide rail 22 is used to limit the movement direction of the sliders 23. When the fixing bolts 24 are tightened, the movement of the sliders 23 can be restricted.
[0034] The measuring assembly includes a mounting bracket 25, which is vertically mounted on the bottom surface of the slider 23 by bolts. A rotating rod 26 is rotatably mounted on the tail end of the mounting bracket 25 via a rotating shaft. A detection wheel 27 is rotatably mounted on the tail end of the rotating rod 26 via a rotating shaft.
[0035] The number of mounting brackets 25 is the same as the number of sliders 23.
[0036] A first elastic element 28 is hinged between the top end of the rotating rod 26 and the top of the back of the mounting bracket 25. The elastic force of the first elastic element 28 can drive the tail end of the rotating rod 26 to rotate downwards, thereby causing the wheel surface of the detection wheel 27 to contact the ground. When the device moves, the detection wheel 27 rolls along the ground, and the height of the axis of the detection wheel 27 will change due to the undulation of the road surface. At this time, the rotating rod 26 will rotate, and the height of the top end of the rotating rod 26 will change. The direction of change is opposite to the vertical movement direction of the detection wheel 27, and the movement distance is directly proportional to the vertical movement distance of the detection wheel 27. The ratio is the ratio of the straight-line distance from the axis of the detection wheel 27 to the rotation point of the rotating rod 26 to the straight-line distance from the top end of the rotating rod 26 to the rotation point of the rotating rod 26.
[0037] A displacement sensor 29 is vertically mounted on the top front side of the mounting bracket 25. The bottom end of the displacement sensor 29 abuts against the top end of the rotating rod 26. The displacement sensor 29 is used to detect the height change of the top end of the rotating rod 26.
[0038] The displacement sensor 29 is connected to the detection box 21 via a wire, and the detection box 21 is placed on the top surface of the frame 11. Alternatively, a frame can be welded to the top surface of the frame 11 to hold the detection box 21.
[0039] The detection box 21 can record the data from the displacement sensor 29 and perform calculations to obtain the road surface smoothness.
[0040] The cleaning component 3 includes a blade holder 31, which is fixedly mounted on the top end of the rotating rod 26 by screws across the detection wheel 27. The top surface of the blade holder 31 is provided with a slot 32, in which a scraper 34 is slidably installed.
[0041] The tool holder 31 will not affect the rotation of the detection wheel 27, and can rotate with the rotating rod 26.
[0042] The blade 34 has an adjustment groove 35 in the middle and a limit screw 33 in the slot 32. The limit screw 33 passes through the adjustment groove 35 and is connected to a locking nut 36. The blade edge of the blade 34 is in contact with the wheel surface of the detection wheel 27.
[0043] When the locking nut 36 is loosened, the scraper 34 can slide along the groove 32. The adjusting groove 35 can limit the sliding distance and direction of the scraper 34, and the groove 32 can limit the rotation of the scraper 34, thereby adjusting the distance between the cutting edge of the scraper 34 and the surface of the detection wheel 27. After tightening the locking nut 36, the scraper 34 cannot move.
[0044] When the device moves, the detection wheel 27 rotates counterclockwise, and the wheel surface slides relative to the scraper 34. At this time, the dust, dirt and other impurities attached to the wheel surface of the detection wheel 27 will be scraped off by the scraper 34, keeping the wheel surface of the detection wheel 27 clean and flat.
[0045] In this embodiment, when using this device, the operator checks whether the surfaces of the moving wheel 13 and the detection wheel 27 are clean and flat. The detection box 21 is placed on the top surface of the frame 11, and the displacement sensor 29 is connected using wires.
[0046] Loosen the fixing bolt 24 and adjust the position and spacing of the three sliders 23 to adjust the position and spacing of the detection wheel 27. After adjustment, tighten the fixing bolt 24.
[0047] Using traction equipment, such as a vehicle, the moving component 1 is moved while being towed, with a towing speed not exceeding 12 kilometers per hour.
[0048] When the device moves, the detection wheel 27 rolls along the ground. The height of the axis of the detection wheel 27 will change due to the undulation of the road surface. At this time, the rotating rod 26 will rotate, and the height of the top of the rotating rod 26 will change. The direction of change is opposite to the vertical movement direction of the detection wheel 27, and the movement distance is directly proportional to the vertical movement distance of the detection wheel 27. The ratio is the ratio of the straight distance from the axis of the detection wheel 27 to the rotation point of the rotating rod 26 to the straight distance from the top of the rotating rod 26 to the rotation point of the rotating rod 26.
[0049] Because three detection wheels 27 are installed at the same time, the road surface undulation status at three different positions on the same straight line can be detected simultaneously. When a single detection wheel 27 encounters a small stone, the other detection wheels 27 will not change, thus eliminating abnormal data.
[0050] Meanwhile, when the device moves, the detection wheel 27 rotates counterclockwise, and the wheel surface slides relative to the scraper 34. At this time, the dust, dirt and other impurities attached to the wheel surface of the detection wheel 27 will be scraped off by the scraper 34, keeping the wheel surface of the detection wheel 27 clean and flat.
[0051] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely preferred examples and are not intended to limit the utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
