Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of resistance strain monitoring technology, and in particular to a dynamic resistance strain signal acquisition device. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, most dynamic resistance strain gauges used in bridge monitoring on the market output analog signals (such as voltage and current). Typically, the strain of a bridge structure is extremely small. When data is acquired, the amplitude of analog signals is often low and susceptible to interference due to the inherent characteristics of analog signals, making them difficult for the acquisition equipment to effectively identify and process. Therefore, a dedicated signal conditioning amplifier is necessary to amplify and filter the analog signals. However, this requires the additional purchase of signal conditioning and amplifier equipment, increasing project costs. Furthermore, the signal conditioning amplifier needs to be re-calibrated and reinstalled, further increasing the technical difficulty of the construction process. Utility Model Content

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0012] By integrating the full-bridge resistance strain gauge and the signal conditioning control board, the acquired strain signal can be directly amplified and converted into a digital signal, which can then be output directly via RS-485. This eliminates the need for additional equipment to process and transmit the signal, further simplifying the data acquisition process, facilitating connection and data interaction with other devices, improving the efficiency and flexibility of data acquisition, and making it more suitable for practical application scenarios such as bridge monitoring.

[0014] By sealing the outer side of the detection arm and the storage slot with adhesive, the internal components such as the resistance strain gauge and signal conditioning control board can be effectively protected from the influence of external environmental factors, thus extending the service life of the device.

They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. They should not be construed as limiting the specific protection scope of this utility model.
[0022] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features. Thus, the use of "first" and "second" to define a feature may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature.

[0023] See the attached figures. The dynamic resistance strain signal acquisition device described in this embodiment includes a detection base 1, which is made of aluminum alloy. The detection base 1 has a first mounting part 11 and a second mounting part 12 at both ends, respectively. A through mounting hole 13 is provided between the first mounting part 11 and the second mounting part 12, and an adhesive part 14 is also provided on the top surface. When detecting bridge strain, the dynamic resistance strain gauge is usually installed on the reinforcing steel or concrete. Therefore, depending on the installation location, it can be fixed by bolts or adhesive, improving the user's installation convenience.
[0024] A detection arm 2 is located between the first mounting part 11 and the second mounting part 12. The left detection end 21 and the right detection end 22 of the detection arm 2 are connected to the first mounting part 11 and the second mounting part 12, respectively. Semi-circular notches 23 are provided on the upper and lower sides of the left detection end 21 and the right detection end 22. The left detection end 21 and the right detection end 22 are joined together to form a circular detection hole 24. A first resistance strain gauge 31, a second resistance strain gauge 32, a third resistance strain gauge 33, and a fourth resistance strain gauge 34 are installed on the upper, lower, left, and right sides of the detection hole 24, respectively. The first resistance strain gauge 31, the second resistance strain gauge 32, the third resistance strain gauge 33, and the fourth resistance strain gauge 34 form a Wheatstone bridge. The first resistance strain gauge 31, the second resistance strain gauge 32, the third resistance strain gauge 33, and the fourth resistance strain gauge 34 are made of constantan, and their connection relationship is a mature existing technology, which will not be described in detail here. Subsequently, a sealing layer 25 is provided on the outside of the detection arm 2 to wrap the detection arm.
[0025] A storage slot 15 extends from the first mounting part 11, and a signal conditioning control board 4 is installed inside the storage slot 15. The signal conditioning control board 4 is electrically connected to the resistance strain gauge. A first wire-passing hole 16 and a second wire-passing hole 17 are provided on both sides of the storage slot 15. The first wire-passing hole 16 connects the storage slot 15 and the detection arm 2, facilitating wire passage, while the second wire-passing hole 17 is used for passing an RS485 bus. A metal cover plate 5 is provided above the storage slot 15, and the metal cover plate 5 is sealed and fixed to the opening of the storage slot 15 with adhesive.
[0026] The signal conditioning control board 4 is equipped with a signal amplification circuit and an analog-to-digital conversion circuit. The signal output terminal of the signal conditioning control board is connected to an RS485 bus. The signal conditioning control board (including the processing chip STM32F767IGT6) has a signal amplification circuit that can amplify the signal detected by the resistance strain gauge (amplification by 100 times). Then, the analog signal is converted into a digital signal through the analog-to-digital conversion circuit. The analog-to-digital conversion circuit can be a commonly used analog-to-digital conversion chip (AD7766B). Finally, the digital signal is transmitted from the RS485 bus to the monitoring platform, which greatly reduces project costs and alleviates the computing pressure on the platform.
