Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of support structure displacement detection technology, specifically relating to a support structure displacement detection device. Background Technology

[0002] An excavation pit is a pit dug at the designed foundation location according to the base elevation and foundation dimensions. The excavation pit support structure is a set of supporting, reinforcing, and protective measures taken to ensure the safety of adjacent buildings, structures, pipes, lines, and cables. It maintains the stability of the exposed soil during excavation and the pit's use, ensuring construction safety. During excavation, as soil is removed from the pit, the soil on the pit's sidewalls tends to move inwards. This increases the pressure on the excavation pit support structure, and insufficient support strength can easily lead to accidents. Therefore, detecting the displacement of the foundation pit support structure is crucial for ensuring the safety of surrounding buildings, eliminating safety hazards, and guaranteeing construction accuracy. Existing detection devices consist of a signal transmitter installed inside the foundation pit and a signal receiver installed on the support structure to detect displacement changes. However, during the detection process, the signal transmitter itself may move, leading to inaccurate detection and false alarms. Therefore, this invention provides a support structure displacement detection device to better detect the displacement of the foundation pit support structure. Summary of the Invention

[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the preferred embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, so as to facilitate the understanding of those skilled in the art.

[0018] like Figure 1-4This utility model discloses a support structure displacement detection device, which includes a base 1, a U-shaped bracket 2, a protective box 3, a lifting threaded rod 4, a limiting mechanism 5, a first infrared transmitter 6, a first infrared receiver 7, a second infrared transmitter 8, a second infrared receiver 9, a test column 10, a reference column 11, a controller 12, and an alarm 13. The U-shaped bracket 2 is inverted and mounted on top of the base 1. The protective box 3 is mounted on top of the U-shaped bracket 2 and has an open top. The bottom of the U-shaped bracket 2 and the protective box 3 have corresponding through holes, and a threaded cylinder 14 is installed in the through holes. The lifting threaded rod 4 is threadedly connected to the threaded cylinder 14. The limiting mechanism 5 is mounted on top of the lifting threaded rod 4. The first infrared receiver 7 and the second infrared receiver 9 are mounted on the limiting mechanism 5. The first infrared transmitter 6 is mounted on the test column 10, which is mounted on the support frame. The second infrared transmitter 8 is mounted on the reference column 11, which is mounted inside the foundation pit. The controller 12 and the alarm 13 are mounted on the U-shaped bracket 2. The transmitter 6, first infrared receiver 7, second infrared transmitter 8, second infrared receiver 9, and alarm 13 are all electrically connected to the controller 12. The controller 12 is also connected to a wireless transceiver, facilitating the transmission of test results during testing, such as to a mobile phone for easy viewing by staff. During testing, the first infrared transmitter is mounted on a test column, which is then mounted on a support frame. The second infrared transmitter is mounted on a reference column, which can be installed inside the pit, placing the first and second infrared transmitters at the same horizontal level. The first and second infrared receivers are mounted on a limiting mechanism, with their receiving surfaces facing the first and second infrared transmitters, respectively. A lifting screw moves the infrared receivers outside the protective box, placing them at the same horizontal level as the first and second infrared transmitters. The distance from the device to the support structure is detected by the first infrared transmitter and receiver, allowing for the detection of distance changes, i.e., whether the support structure has shifted. When a distance change occurs, the controller activates the alarm to alert staff. The distance from the reference column to the device is detected by a second infrared transmitter and a second infrared receiver. When the distance from the detection device to the support structure changes, the distance from the reference column to the device can be checked. If it remains unchanged, the distance from the detection device to the support structure has changed, indicating that the support structure has shifted. If it changes, the detection device itself may have moved, but the support structure has not. By measuring and comparing the two distances, it is possible to better determine whether the support structure has shifted, thus improving the detection effect. At the same time, the infrared detector is installed on the limit mechanism, which facilitates disassembly, maintenance, or replacement. The infrared detector is moved and installed in the protective box via a lifting threaded rod. When in use, it can be moved outside the protective box, and after the detection is completed, it can be reset inside the protective box to protect the infrared detector.

[0019] The limiting mechanism 5 includes a base plate 15, a partition plate 16, a U-shaped limiting frame 17, and a movable abutment assembly 18. The base plate 15 is installed on top of the lifting threaded rod 4, and the partition plate 16 is installed on top of the base plate 15. U-shaped limiting frames 17 are installed on the top of the base plate 15 and on both sides of the partition plate 16. Limiting grooves 19 are provided on both the left and right sides of the U-shaped limiting frames 17. The first infrared receiver 7 and the second infrared receiver 9 are respectively installed within the U-shaped limiting frames 17 on both sides of the partition plate, and limiting blocks 20 located within the limiting grooves 19 are provided on the left and right sides of the first infrared receiver 7 and the second infrared receiver 9, respectively. A movable abutment assembly 18 is installed on the partition plate 16 and on top of the first infrared receiver 7 and the second infrared receiver 9. The movable abutment assembly 18 includes a lead screw 21, a handle 22, a guide rod 23, a moving block 24, a cover plate 25, and an abutment post 26. A groove 27 is provided in the partition plate 16, and the lead screw 21 is rotatably installed in the groove 27, with one end of the lead screw 21 rotatably extending into the groove. A handle 22 is connected to the top externally. The guide rod 23 is installed in the groove 27. One end of the moving block 24 is threaded to the lead screw 21, and the other end is slidably fitted onto the guide rod 23. Two pillars 28 are installed on the moving block 24, and a cover plate 25 is installed on the top of the pillars 28. The tops of the first infrared receiver 7 and the second infrared receiver 9 are respectively provided with two symmetrical abutment grooves 29. The bottom of the cover plate 25 is installed with an abutment post 26 that abuts into the abutment groove 29. The first infrared receiver and the second infrared receiver are respectively placed in the U-shaped limiting frames on both sides of the partition. Then, the handle is manually rotated to rotate the lead screw, causing the moving block threaded to the lead screw to move up and down. When installing the infrared receiver, the moving block moves down, causing the cover plate and the abutment post to move down, so that the abutment post abuts into the abutment groove, which facilitates the stable installation of the infrared receiver. When the infrared receiver needs to be removed, the handle is rotated in the opposite direction, causing the moving block to move the cover plate and the abutment post up, disengaging from the infrared receiver, so that the infrared receiver can be removed. This facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the infrared receiver. Meanwhile, the cover can be placed on top of the protective box to protect the infrared receiver.

[0020] The protective box 3 is provided with sliding grooves 30 on both the left and right sides to facilitate the sliding of the partition 16; the sliding grooves facilitate the up and down movement of the partition.

[0021] The base 1 is equipped with fixing plates 31 at its four corners. The fixing plates 31 are provided with first fixing holes 32, and first insert rods 33 are inserted into the first fixing holes 32. The first insert rods facilitate the installation of the device in the pit.

[0022] A support plate 34 is installed at the bottom of the reference column 11. The support plate 34 has second fixing holes 35 at its four corners, and second insert rods 36 are inserted into the second fixing holes 35. The second insert rods facilitate the installation of the reference column in the foundation pit.

[0023] Work process:

[0024] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: During testing, the first infrared transmitter 6 is installed on the test column 10, and the test column 10 is installed on the support frame 37. The second infrared transmitter 8 is installed on the reference column 11. The reference column 11 can be installed in the pit so that the first infrared transmitter 6 and the second infrared transmitter 8 are at the same horizontal height. The first infrared receiver 7 and the second infrared receiver 9 are placed in the U-shaped limiting frames 17 on both sides of the partition 16, respectively. Then, the handle 22 is manually rotated to rotate the lead screw 21, so that the moving block 24 threaded on the lead screw 22 moves up and down. When installing the infrared receiver, the moving block 24 moves down, which drives the cover plate 25 and the abutment column 26 to move down, so that the abutment column 26 abuts in the abutment groove 29, which facilitates the stable installation of the infrared receiver. The infrared receiver is moved to the same horizontal height as the first and second infrared transmitters by lifting the threaded rod 4. The distance from the device to the support structure is detected by the first infrared transmitter 6 and the first infrared receiver 7. Changes in distance are detected, i.e., whether the support structure has shifted. When the distance changes, the alarm 13 is activated by the controller 12 to alert the staff. The distance from the reference column 11 to the device is detected by the second infrared transmitter 8 and the second infrared receiver 9. When the distance from the detection device to the support structure changes, the distance from the reference column to the device can be checked. If it does not change, the distance from the detection device to the support structure has changed, i.e., the support structure has shifted. If this distance also changes, the detection device itself may have moved, but the support structure has not moved, which can improve the detection effect.

[0025] Finally, it should be noted that the above preferred embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail through the above preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes can be made to it in form and detail without departing from the scope defined by the claims of this utility model.
