[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0023] Please see Figure 1-3 One embodiment of this utility model is a shock-absorbing protective shell for a surveying instrument, comprising a support platform 1, a connecting plate 2 at the lower end of the support platform 1, and a shock-absorbing shell 12 at the upper end of the support platform 1.

[0024] Also includes:

[0025] The shock absorber cylinder 15 is disposed inside the shock absorber housing 12. Multiple sets of shock absorber cylinders 15 are provided, and one end of the outer surface of the shock absorber cylinder 15 is connected to the inner wall of the shock absorber housing 12. A compression spring 16 is installed inside the shock absorber cylinder 15, and one end of the compression spring 16 is fixedly connected to one end inside the shock absorber cylinder 15. The other end of the compression spring 16 is connected to a limit movement structure 151.

[0026] After the surveying instrument is installed in the shock-absorbing housing 12, when it receives an impact force, the outer shock-absorbing housing 12 first contacts and absorbs part of the impact energy, reducing the direct impact on the internal surveying instrument. After the impact force is transmitted to the inside of the shock-absorbing housing 12, the multiple sets of shock-absorbing cylinders 15 set inside the shock-absorbing housing 12 begin to play a shock-absorbing role. When it is impacted, the compression spring 16 is compressed, absorbing and storing the impact energy. At the same time, it converts part of the energy into heat energy and dissipates it through its elastic deformation. When the compression spring 16 is compressed, the limiting movement structure 151 will move, thereby reducing the damage of the impact force to the surveying instrument.

[0027] Please see Figure 2 A fixing rod 3 is provided at the bottom of the connecting plate 2, and the fixing rod 3 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 2. A mounting plate 4 is provided at the lower end of the fixing rod 3, and the mounting plate 4 is fixedly connected to the fixing rod 3. A movable wheel 5 is installed on the lower surface of the mounting plate 4.

[0028] Please see Figure 2 The limiting and moving structure 151 includes a limiting block 17. A moving rod 18 is provided at one end of the limiting block 17 and is fixedly connected to the limiting block 17. A clamping plate 19 is provided on the surface of the moving rod 18 and is fixedly connected to the moving rod 18. A shock-absorbing pad 20 is provided on the surface of the clamping plate 19 and is fixedly connected to the clamping plate 19. A shock-absorbing sponge 21 is provided inside the shock-absorbing housing 12 and is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the shock-absorbing housing 12. In use, the limiting block 17 moves along the inner wall of the shock-absorbing cylinder 16 and transmits the remaining impact force to the clamping plate 19 through the moving rod 18 fixedly connected to it. The clamping plate 19 on the surface of the moving rod 18 is in direct contact with the surveying instrument. The shock-absorbing pad 20 on it further absorbs and disperses the impact force, reducing damage to the surveying instrument. The shock-absorbing sponge 21 absorbs and disperses the energy generated by the displacement, playing an auxiliary role in shock absorption.

There are four sets of electric push rods 6, and the electric push rods 6 operate synchronously. A fixing block 7 is installed on the upper end of the electric push rod 6, and the fixing block 7 is fixedly connected to the output end of the electric push rod 6. When this product is in use, the electric push rod 6 can drive the fixing block 7 to move.
