[0031] 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.

[0032] To further understand the contents of this utility model, a detailed description of this utility model will be provided with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4This utility model discloses an extension accessory for a scanner, including an L-shaped connecting rod 7. The L-shaped connecting rod 7 has two first threaded holes 18 at its rear top, a second threaded hole 19 at the corner top, and a third threaded hole 20 at its bottom front end. This device connects a handheld 3D scanner to the extension rod. The L-shaped connecting rod 7 is made of hollowed-out aluminum alloy. The first threaded holes 18 at both ends tightly connect the scanner and the extension rod. The second threaded holes 19 and 20 are fixed to the connecting rod 6. Screw holes can be selected for connection according to the environment. The L-shaped connecting rod 7 and the connecting rod 6 are made of lightweight aluminum alloy, which is corrosion-resistant and non-toxic to humans. When not in use, the first threaded holes 18, 19, and 20 can be disassembled for easy portability.

[0034] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 3 A guide block 2 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the fixed box 1. A connecting rod 6 is set at the rear end of the guide block 2. The connecting rod 6 is fixed at the position of the second threaded hole 19 and the third threaded hole 20 by screws. An L-shaped connecting rod 7 is set at the top of the connecting rod 6. A rotating shaft 3 is rotatably connected inside the left side of the fixed box 1. A limit plate 4 is fixedly connected to the outer ring of the left side of the rotating shaft 3. The gear 9 is controlled by the limit plate 4 and the bolt 5. Controlling the gear 9 controls the rack 10 and prevents the rack 10 from sliding downward. The gear 9 is fixedly connected to the outer ring of the right side of the rotating shaft 3. Slide grooves 13 are opened on the inner walls of both sides of the guide block 2. The limit plate 4 is threadedly connected to the inside of the fixed box 1 by bolts 5. A slider 12 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the slide groove 13. The movement of the rack 10 drives the guide plate 11 to move. This allows the sliders 12 on both sides of the guide plate 11 to slide on the inner wall of the slide groove 13 for guided movement. The guide plate 11 is fixedly connected between the sliders 12. A rack 10 is fixedly connected to the front end of the guide plate 11, and the rack 10 meshes with the gear 9. A support plate 14 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the guide plate 11, and the support plate 14 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting rod 6. Rotating the bolt 5 causes the rotating shaft 3 to rotate, which in turn drives the gear 9 to rotate. The gear 9 meshes with the rack 10, which in turn moves the guide plate 11, causing the sliders 12 on both sides of the guide plate 11 to slide on the inner wall of the slide groove 13. This causes the support plate 14 to move, which in turn moves the connecting rod 6 upward. When no adjustment is needed, the bolt 5 is rotated into the limiting plate 4 for limiting control.

[0035] Reference Figure 3 - Figure 5The top of the L-shaped connecting rod 7 is equipped with a protective component, including a protective frame 8. The protective frame 8 blocks dust and stones from the mine, preventing damage to the scanner. The protective frame 8 is located on the top of the L-shaped connecting rod 7. The corners of the L-shaped connecting rod 7 are all provided with evenly distributed mounting slots 17. The mounting slots 17 are initially small and gradually increase in size, with an arc shape inside. They are used to control the universal ball 15. It takes a lot of force to pull out the universal ball 15. The bottom of the protective frame 8 is fixedly connected to evenly distributed mounting posts 16. The outer and inner walls of the mounting posts 16 are fixedly connected to evenly distributed pressing blocks 21. The mounting posts 16 and pressing blocks 21 can be directly inserted into the mounting slots 17. The spring 22 and the universal ball 15 need to be pressed together. Pressing the spring 22 makes the universal ball 15 limit control within the mounting slots 17. The inner wall of the pressing block 21 is fixedly connected to the spring 22, and one end of the spring 22 is fixedly connected to the universal ball 15.

[0036] Working principle: Install the protective frame 8 in the mine, align the mounting column 16 with the mounting groove 17, and squeeze the spring 22 and the universal ball 15 into the mounting groove 17. Control the universal ball 15; considerable force is required to pull it out. Install the connecting rod 6 with screws. Install the scanner on top of the L-shaped connecting rod 7. Rotate the bolt 5 to rotate the rotating shaft 3. The rotating shaft 3 drives the gear 9 to rotate. The gear 9 meshes with the rack 10, causing the guide plate 11 to move. This causes the sliders 12 on both sides of the guide plate 11 to slide on the inner wall of the groove 13, causing the support plate 14 to move. The support plate 14 then drives the connecting rod 6 to move upward. When no adjustment is needed, rotate the bolt 5 into the limit plate 4 for limit control.
