Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of engineering testing technology, specifically relating to a tunnel wall deformation detection device. Background Technology

[0002] Tunnels are engineering structures buried underground. To ensure the safety and stability of the tunnel structure, deformation detection of the tunnel walls is necessary. Current technology for tunnel wall deformation detection typically involves installing multiple identification targets on the same cross-section of the tunnel, and then using a total station to measure the coordinates of these targets. However, the large number of identification targets within the tunnel and the limited measuring distance of the total station necessitate multiple setups of the total station within the tunnel by the inspection personnel. This process is complex and poses safety hazards.

[0003] Chinese Patent CN119063684A discloses a tunnel structure deformation monitoring device and method. The method includes several fixed ends and measuring rods, all mounted on the inner wall of the same cross-section of the tunnel whose deformation needs to be monitored. A measuring rod is positioned between two adjacent fixed ends. Each fixed end includes a fixed cylinder mounted on a base. A hollow rotating shaft is positioned on the central axis of the fixed cylinder, and a resistive angle sensor is installed inside the rotating shaft. This method utilizes the resistive angle sensor to measure the angle change of the measuring rods between the fixed ends caused by tunnel deformation, thereby detecting tunnel structure deformation.

[0004] When using the above solution, the length of the measuring rod is fixed, which requires high installation accuracy at the fixed end, making construction difficult. Furthermore, it requires the installation of resistive angle sensors in each fixed end. Since a large number of fixed ends are installed in the tunnel, the cost of the above solution is high. Utility Model Content

[0005] The present invention aims to provide a tunnel wall deformation detection device to solve the problems of high construction difficulty and high cost of the above-mentioned solutions.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A tunnel wall deformation detection device includes fixed rods and telescopic rod assemblies. Multiple fixed rods are fixedly arranged at intervals along the tunnel circumference on the tunnel wall, with the axes of the multiple fixed rods located at the same vertical cross-section. Multiple sets of telescopic rod assemblies are provided, each set positioned between two adjacent fixed rods. Each telescopic rod assembly includes a movable rod and a rod sleeve. A first through groove is formed on the side wall of the rod sleeve, and a scale line is provided on the outside of the rod sleeve. One end of the movable rod is slidably inserted into one end of the rod sleeve, and a pointer is provided on the side wall of one end of the movable rod, the pointer slidingly disposed within the first through groove. The other end of the movable rod and the other end of the rod sleeve are rotatably connected to the ends of adjacent fixed rods extending out of the tunnel wall.

[0008] The principle and effects of this technical solution:

[0009] First, multiple fixed rods are fixed to the tunnel wall at intervals along the tunnel circumference with their axes aligned on the same vertical plane. After sliding one end of the movable rod into one end of the rod sleeve, the telescopic rod assembly is placed between two adjacent fixed rods, and the other end of the movable rod and the other end of the rod sleeve are rotatably connected to the adjacent fixed rods. The reading of the scale line aligned with the pointer is recorded for the first time. After a certain interval, the reading of the scale line aligned with each pointer is recorded again and compared with the data recorded for the first time. The tunnel wall with the fixed rods connected to the telescopic rod assembly with the change in the two sets of readings has deformed.

[0010] With the above setup, inspectors can directly observe the scale line aligned with the pointer to determine whether the tunnel wall has deformed, which improves inspection efficiency and reduces the danger to inspectors. At the same time, by using the telescopic rod assembly, the installation accuracy requirements of the fixed rod are reduced, thereby reducing the construction difficulty of this device. In addition, the device has a simple structure, which reduces the project cost.

[0011] In this utility model, a sleeve is slidably fitted on the outer wall of the sleeve, and a second through groove aligned with the first through groove is opened on the side wall of the sleeve. The scale line is set on the outer wall of the sleeve, and a hand-tightening bolt is threaded through the side wall of the sleeve. The axis of the hand-tightening bolt is perpendicular to the axis of the sleeve.

[0012] The principle and effects of this technical solution:

[0013] After rotating the two ends of the telescopic rod assembly to the adjacent fixed rod, loosen the hand-tightening bolt, slide the sleeve, align the middle mark of the scale line on the outer wall of the sleeve with the pointer, and then tighten the hand-tightening bolt so that the end of the hand-tightening bolt presses against the rod sleeve.

[0014] With the above settings, the sleeve can be fixed after it is slid to the appropriate position, thereby aligning the middle scale of each scale line with the corresponding pointer. This allows the inspector to intuitively read the length change value of the telescopic rod assembly during the inspection process without having to perform secondary calculations, further improving the inspection efficiency.

[0015] In this invention, protrusions are fixedly provided on both sides of the second through groove on the inner sidewall of the sleeve, and both protrusions are slidably embedded in the first through groove. This arrangement prevents the sleeve from rotating relative to the rod sleeve.

[0016] In this invention, a groove is provided on the outer wall of one end of the movable rod, and a slider is slidably embedded in the groove. A compression spring is provided between the slider and the end wall of the groove, and the pointer is fixedly located on the end wall of the slider away from the compression spring. This design allows for the disassembly and assembly of the various components of the device, facilitating their classification, storage, and transportation.

[0017] This invention also includes a rotating shaft. Two first connecting lugs are fixedly provided at intervals at one end of the fixed rod extending from the tunnel wall. The rotating shaft rotatably passes through the two first connecting lugs. The other end of the movable rod and the other end of the rod sleeve are rotatably sleeved on the rotating shaft between the two first connecting lugs. A target is provided at one end of the rotating shaft, and a first nut is threaded onto the outer wall of the other end of the rotating shaft. Through the above arrangement, the other end of the movable rod and the other end of the rod sleeve are rotatably connected to the adjacent fixed rod. Simultaneously, the initial coordinates of each target can be detected and recorded. During routine inspections, inspectors only need to detect the coordinates of the targets installed on the tunnel wall where deformation has occurred, reducing the workload of the inspectors.

[0018] This invention also includes a fastening bolt. Two second connecting lugs are fixedly arranged at a distance from one end of the rotating shaft. A connecting block is fixedly arranged on the end wall of the target. The fastening bolt rotatably passes through the two second connecting lugs, and the connecting block is rotatably sleeved on the fastening bolt between the two second connecting lugs. A second nut is fixedly arranged on the outer wall of one of the second connecting lugs along the axial direction of the fastening bolt. This arrangement facilitates the installation of the target and allows for adjustment of its orientation.

[0019] In this invention, an anti-slip pad is fixedly provided at the end of the hand-tightening bolt near the rod sleeve. This design prevents the sleeve from sliding relative to the rod sleeve, thus improving the accuracy of the device's detection results. Attached Figure Description
