Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0002] This utility model relates to the technical field of steel structure construction measurement equipment, and in particular to a measuring device that can be applied to the measurement accuracy of steel structure component construction and installation. [Background Technology]
[0004] Ensuring the installation accuracy of steel structure components is crucial during the construction and installation of steel structure buildings. Traditional inspection tools include spirit levels, plumb lines, and measuring tapes.
[0005] Among them, the spirit level, as a common measuring tool, is widely used in the inspection of flatness and verticality. However, some problems have been exposed in practical use. First, the spirit level requires manual contact with the surface of the component while visually observing the measuring elements on the level, such as the bubble level tube. This not only increases the labor intensity of the operator, but also makes it difficult for the operator to maintain the stability of the spirit level during long-term operation, which may affect the measurement accuracy and efficiency. Second, the bubble level on existing spirit level measuring tools is usually exposed, making it highly susceptible to damage from impacts in the complex and changing environment of construction sites, thus shortening the tool's service life. [Utility Model Content]
[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide a measuring device with higher measurement accuracy and efficiency, and a longer service life, which can be applied to the construction and installation accuracy of steel structure components, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems existing in the prior art.
[0008] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0009] A measuring device applicable to the construction and installation accuracy of steel structure components includes a housing. The middle of the housing is provided with a horizontal bubble tube for measuring the flatness of the installed steel component. A magnetic suction component is provided on one side of the housing for adsorption and fixation with the steel component. A mounting position is provided in the upper part of the housing, and a vertical detection device is movably connected to the mounting position. When detecting the verticality of the installed steel component, the vertical detection device can be exposed inside the housing, and conversely, it can be hidden inside the housing.
[0010] As described above, the measuring device applicable to the construction and installation accuracy of steel structure components has a first partition plate fixedly connected to the inner wall of the housing on one side of the installation position. The first partition plate has a hinge hole movably connected to the vertical detection device. The vertical detection device includes a hinge column that matches the hinge hole, so that the vertical detection device can be exposed or hidden in the housing.
[0011] As described above, the measuring device applicable to the construction and installation accuracy of steel structure components has a second partition plate fixedly connected to one end of the first partition plate facing the hinge hole, which is located inside the housing, to limit the rotation range of the vertical detection device within the housing.
[0012] The measuring device described above, which can be applied to the construction and installation accuracy of steel structure components, includes a mounting part that can be exposed or hidden in the installation position, the mounting part being provided with the hinge column, and the mounting part being provided with a first circular leveling bubble tube.
[0013] As described above, the measuring device applicable to the construction and installation accuracy of steel structure components has a second circular bubble tube connected to the bottom of the first circular bubble tube, so as to facilitate the detection of steel components higher than the human body.
[0014] As described above, the measuring device applicable to the construction and installation accuracy of steel structure components has a magnetic suction part on the inner wall of the outer shell edge near the opening of the installation position. One side end of the vertical detection device extends and is connected to a metal lever that can cooperate with the magnetic suction part. When the vertical detection device is hidden in the installation position, the metal lever is exposed on the edge of the outer shell and abuts against the magnetic suction part.
[0015] As described above, the measuring device applicable to the construction and installation accuracy of steel structure components includes a first magnetic element and a second magnetic element fixed to the inner wall of the outer shell.
[0016] As described above, the measuring device applicable to the construction and installation accuracy of steel structure components has the first magnetic suction component and the second magnetic suction component located on the inner sidewall of the outer shell along its length, and the two are arranged symmetrically.
[0017] As described above, the measuring device applicable to the construction and installation accuracy of steel structure components has the first magnetic suction component and the second magnetic suction component having an L-shaped cross-section that adapts to the intersection of the inner sidewall of the outer shell.
[0018] As described above, the measuring device applicable to the construction and installation accuracy of steel structure components has scale lines on the outer surface of the outer shell along its length.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0020] Existing spirit levels have exposed bubble levels that are easily damaged. The measuring device proposed in this invention features a vertical detection device that can be hidden inside the casing when not in use, protecting it and reducing the risk of damage from collisions in complex construction environments, thus extending the device's lifespan. Furthermore, in existing technologies, using a spirit level requires manual close contact with the component and visual inspection, which is labor-intensive and prone to instability due to manual operation affecting accuracy. This invention, however, incorporates a magnetic component inside the casing, allowing it to be magnetically attached and fixed to the steel component, eliminating the need for prolonged manual contact, reducing labor intensity, and providing a more stable fixation, thus improving measurement accuracy and efficiency.

Detailed Implementation Methods
[0032] To make the technical problems solved by this application, the technical solutions, and the beneficial effects clearer, this application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of this application and are not intended to limit this application.
[0033] Please see Figures 1 to 8This embodiment provides a measuring device applicable to the construction and installation accuracy of steel structure components, including a housing 1. The middle of the housing 1 is provided with a horizontal bubble tube 2 for measuring the flatness of the steel component installation. The feature is that a magnetic suction component 3 is provided on one side inside the housing 1 for adsorption and fixation with the steel component. The upper part of the housing 1 is provided with a mounting position 4, and a vertical detection device 5 is movably connected to the mounting position 4. When detecting the verticality of the steel component installation, the vertical detection device 5 can be exposed inside the housing 1, and conversely, it can be hidden inside the housing 1.
[0034] In this embodiment, the outer shell 1 serves as the main structure of the entire measuring device, providing a mounting base for other components. It is preferably a rectangular metal shell, specifically an aluminum alloy rectangular shell with dimensions of 500mm × 50mm × 30mm. A horizontal bubble tube 2 is provided in the middle of the outer shell 1. This horizontal bubble tube 2 is specifically used to measure the flatness of steel component installation. For example, when measuring the flatness of a steel beam, the measuring device is placed horizontally on the steel beam; if the bubble in the horizontal bubble tube 2 is centered, it indicates that the flatness of the steel beam installation is qualified.
[0035] A magnetic suction component 3 is installed on one side inside the outer casing 1. This component 3 can generate an adsorption force with the surface of the steel component, thereby achieving adsorption and fixation of the measuring device to the steel component. By using the magnetic suction component 3 to fix the device to the steel component, no additional fixing tools are required, making the installation and fixation of the measuring device on the steel component more convenient. Operators can operate with one hand, improving measurement efficiency. At the same time, the secure fixation effectively avoids measurement errors caused by device shaking, improving measurement accuracy.
[0036] A mounting position 4 is provided in the upper part of the outer casing 1. This mounting position 4 is movably connected to the vertical detection device 5. Optionally, the vertical detection device 5 can be slidably connected or hinged to the mounting position 4. When it is necessary to detect the verticality of the steel component installation, the vertical detection device 5 can be pulled out or rotated out of the outer casing 1 to expose it for verticality detection. When verticality detection is not required, the vertical detection device 5 can be stored and hidden inside the outer casing 1 for easy storage and carrying. This design not only makes the device more compact and easier to carry and store, but also effectively protects the vertical detection device 5 from damage such as impacts when not in use, thus extending the service life of the device. In addition, since the measuring device includes both a horizontal bubble tube 2 for measuring flatness and a movable vertical detection device 5 for detecting verticality, it integrates two commonly used steel structure component installation accuracy detection functions into one device. Compared with the traditional method of carrying multiple single-function testing tools, this greatly reduces the burden on operators and reduces the risk of tool loss.
[0037] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation, a first partition plate 41 is provided on one side of the mounting position 4 and is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer shell 1. The first partition plate 41 is provided with a hinge hole 411 that is movably connected to the vertical detection device 5. The vertical detection device 5 includes a hinge post 51 that matches the hinge hole 411, so that the vertical detection device 5 can be exposed or hidden in the outer shell 1.
[0038] In this embodiment, the design of the first partition plate 41 not only enhances the structural stability of the mounting position 4, but also provides a reliable support point for the movable connection of the vertical detection device 5. When it is necessary to detect the verticality of the steel component, the user can easily rotate or push the vertical detection device 5 around the hinge post 51 in the hinge hole 411, thereby exposing it inside the housing 1 for verticality measurement. When not in use, the vertical detection device 5 can be easily hidden inside the housing 1, avoiding unnecessary interference and damage risks.
[0039] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation thereof, the first partition 41 is fixedly connected to a second partition 42 located inside the housing 1 at one end facing the hinge hole 411, so as to limit the rotation range of the vertical detection device 5 in the housing 1.
[0040] In this embodiment, the second partition plate 42 is designed to provide a physical constraint when the vertical detection device 5 rotates around the hinge post 51 in the hinge hole 411, thereby ensuring that the rotation range of the vertical detection device 5 is within a predetermined safe range. When the vertical detection device 5 rotates about the connection point between the hinge post 51 and the hinge hole 411 as the axis, the second partition plate 42 will limit its rotation range to prevent it from rotating excessively.
[0041] Specifically, the vertical detection device 5 includes a mounting portion 52 that can be exposed or hidden in the mounting position 4. The mounting portion 52 is provided with the hinge post 51 and a first circular leveling bubble tube 521. In this embodiment, the mounting portion 52 is the connection between the vertical detection device 5 and the mounting position 4. Its preferred shape is a quarter circle, with the hinge post 51 located at the intersection of its two right-angled sides. The hinge post 51 engages with the hinge hole 411 of the mounting position 4 to achieve the rotation function of the vertical detection device 5. The first circular leveling bubble tube 521 is specifically used to measure the verticality of steel component installations. For example, when measuring the verticality of a steel column installation, simply place the measuring device vertically along the length of the steel column. When the bubble in the first circular leveling bubble tube 521 is centered, it indicates that the verticality of the steel column installation is qualified.
[0042] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation, a second circular bubble level 522 is connected to the bottom of the first circular bubble level 521 to facilitate the detection of steel components higher than the human body. The second circular bubble level 522 has the same function as the first circular bubble level 521; however, for steel components higher than the human body, in traditional measurement methods, the measuring personnel often need to use additional tools or adopt special postures to observe the bubble state, which is inconvenient and prone to misjudgment. In this embodiment, the second circular bubble level 522 is located on the back of the first circular bubble level 521, allowing the measuring personnel to directly observe the second circular bubble level 522 from below, eliminating the need for complex operations, greatly improving the convenience of operation, and reducing the measurement preparation time caused by inconvenient observation.
[0043] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation, a magnetic suction part 11 is provided on the inner wall of the outer casing 1 near the opening of the mounting position 4. A metal paddle 53 that can cooperate with the magnetic suction part 11 extends from one end of the vertical detection device 5. When the vertical detection device 5 is hidden in the mounting position 4, the metal paddle 53 is exposed at the edge of the outer casing 1 and abuts against the magnetic suction part 11.
[0044] In this embodiment, the magnetic suction part 11 can be a patch or strip made of magnetic material, embedded or threaded onto the housing, to generate a magnetic attraction with the metal lever 53 on the vertical detection device 5, thereby achieving a fixing effect. The cooperation between the magnetic suction part 11 and the metal lever 53 ensures that the vertical detection device 5 will not be accidentally popped out due to shaking, movement or slight external impact when it is hidden in the mounting position 4, greatly enhancing the stability of the vertical detection device 5 in the stored state, effectively protecting the vertical detection device 5, and reducing the risk of damage during carrying or transportation. When the vertical detection device 5 needs to be used, since the metal lever 53 is exposed at the edge of the housing 1, the measuring personnel can easily remove the vertical detection device 5 from the mounting position 4 by turning the metal lever 53. This design makes the operation of using the vertical detection device 5 more convenient and improves the efficiency of the measurement work.
[0045] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation thereof, the magnetic suction assembly 3 includes a first magnetic suction member 31 and a second magnetic suction member 32 fixed to the inner sidewall of the outer shell 1. The first magnetic suction member 31 and the second magnetic suction member 32 are respectively located on the inner sidewall of the outer shell 1 along the length direction, and the two are symmetrically arranged.
[0046] In this embodiment, the first magnetic attractor 31 and the second magnetic attractor 32 are respectively located on the inner sidewall of the outer casing 1 along its length (i.e., the longitudinal direction of the outer casing), and are symmetrically arranged. This symmetrical arrangement of the first magnetic attractor 31 and the second magnetic attractor 32 ensures that the measuring device experiences more uniform force in all directions when it is adsorbed and fixed to the steel component. Compared to a single magnetic attractor or an asymmetrical arrangement of magnetic attractors, this effectively prevents the measuring device from tilting or shifting on the surface of the steel component due to uneven force, significantly improving the adsorption stability of the measuring device during the detection process, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the measurement results.
[0047] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation, the cross-sections of the first magnetic member 31 and the second magnetic member 32 are L-shaped, adapting to the intersection with the inner sidewall of the outer casing 1. The L-shaped cross-section design increases the contact area between the magnetic member and the inner sidewall of the outer casing 1. The larger contact area makes the magnetic member more firmly fixed within the outer casing 1, less prone to loosening or displacement, and also increases the adsorption area, thereby improving the adsorption force. This makes the measuring device more stable when adsorbing steel structural components, reducing measurement inaccuracies caused by slippage or detachment.
[0048] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation, the outer surface of the outer casing 1 is provided with scale lines along its length. The scale lines enable the measuring device to not only detect the flatness and verticality of steel structural components but also to perform length measurement. On the construction site, when it is necessary to quickly measure the length, spacing, or other dimensions of a certain part of a steel component, there is no need to find additional measuring tools such as a tape measure; the measurement can be completed directly using the scale lines on the outer casing 1 of the measuring device, greatly improving the convenience and efficiency of the measurement.
[0049] Working principle of this utility model:
[0050] This invention proposes a measuring device applicable to the construction and installation accuracy of steel structure components. The main body of the device is a measuring device with a rectangular metal shell. A horizontal bubble tube is provided in the middle of the shell for measuring the flatness of the installed steel components. By placing the measuring device horizontally on the steel component and observing whether the bubble in the horizontal bubble tube is centered, the flatness of the installed steel component can be determined.
[0051] A magnetic attraction component is provided on one side of the outer casing. This component consists of a first magnetic attraction element and a second magnetic attraction element, which are symmetrically arranged on the inner side wall of the outer casing along the length direction. The magnetic force generates an attraction force with the surface of the steel component, thereby realizing the stable fixation of the measuring device to the steel component. No additional tools are required, which is convenient for one-handed operation, improves measurement efficiency, and reduces measurement errors caused by device shaking.
[0052] The upper part of the outer casing has a mounting position, which is movably connected to the vertical detection device via a hinge hole. The vertical detection device includes a mounting part and a first circular leveling bubble tube, used to measure the verticality of the installed steel components. When verticality needs to be measured, the vertical detection device can be exposed outside the outer casing by rotation or sliding; when not in use, it can be stored and hidden inside the outer casing for easy carrying and protection. In addition, a first partition plate and a second partition plate are provided on one side of the mounting position, which not only enhances the structural stability of the mounting position but also provides a reliable support point for the movable connection of the vertical detection device and limits its rotation range.
[0053] Furthermore, the mounting section of the vertical detection device is equipped with a first circular bubble level and a second circular bubble level. The second circular bubble level facilitates the detection of steel components higher than the human body, improving operational convenience. Simultaneously, a magnetic attachment is provided on the inner wall of the outer casing edge, which engages with a metal lever on one side of the vertical detection device to ensure that the device will not accidentally pop out when in a concealed state, enhancing stability.
[0054] In addition, the outer surface of the casing has scale lines along the length direction, which enables the measuring device to not only detect flatness and perpendicularity, but also to have a certain length measurement function, thus improving the convenience and efficiency of measurement.
[0055] The above are implementation methods provided in conjunction with specific content, and it is not intended that the specific implementation of this application is limited to these descriptions. Any methods or structures that are similar to those of this application, or any technical deductions or substitutions made based on the concept of this application, should be considered within the scope of protection of this application.
