Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of civil engineering monitoring technology, and more specifically to a modular adjustable large-volume concrete temperature monitoring device. Background Technology

[0002] Due to their unique properties and applications, mass concrete places higher demands on construction and monitoring technologies. During construction, internal temperature control of mass concrete is crucial, as temperature fluctuations can lead to cracking, affecting structural safety and durability. Simultaneously, strength monitoring of mass concrete is also a vital aspect of ensuring project quality. While some progress has been made in related technologies, many problems remain to be solved.

[0003] In the Chinese invention patent "A Positioning Device for Internal Temperature Sensor of Large Volume Concrete" with publication number CN202421196885, although the extension and retraction can be achieved through the cooperation of the cylinder assembly and the telescopic sleeve, the locking buckle plays the role of fixing the cylinder assembly and the telescopic arm during the vibration process to prevent them from shifting. However, this also means that once the locking buckle is locked, fine-tuning is no longer possible. Moreover, the rigid connection between the telescopic arm, the clamping clamp and the cylinder assembly, while ensuring the stability of the sensor position, also limits the possibility of fine-tuning.

[0004] In another Chinese invention patent, CN202211464351, titled "A Sensor and Monitoring Method for Monitoring the Strength of Large-Volume Concrete," although the waterproof layer material is epoxy resin, which has a certain degree of waterproofing, it is brittle and has poor impact resistance. During concrete pouring and curing, it may be damaged by pressure or impact, leading to a decrease in waterproofing performance. To ensure that the sensor can adapt to the deformation of the concrete, a material with a certain degree of flexibility is required. However, flexible materials often have poor compressive strength and are difficult to withstand the pressure generated during concrete pouring and curing.

[0005] In summary, current technologies related to large-volume concrete sensors have significant shortcomings in balancing the flexibility of the positioning device with the performance of the sensor itself. Utility Model Content
