Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of building construction technology, and in particular to a soil thickness detector for civil engineering supervision. Background Technology
[0002] Soil thickness measurement devices are tools used on construction sites for measuring soil, such as during excavation, backfilling, and transportation. By using these devices, the depth of accumulated soil is measured, allowing for the determination of whether the soil work meets construction specifications and site requirements, especially during construction inspections and project acceptance by supervisors. During the measurement process, the verticality of the borehole directly affects the accuracy of the measurement, especially when dealing with thick soil layers. Angle deviations and tilting during drilling can easily occur, leading to significant errors in subsequent soil thickness measurements. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a soil thickness detector for civil engineering supervision. This detector can effectively reduce the probability of angular deviation and tilting during drilling, thereby improving the accuracy of the detection.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is as follows:
[0005] A soil thickness detector for civil engineering supervision is provided, including a detection rod and a shovel head, wherein the shovel head is connected to the lower part of the detection rod and is used to shovel out soil;
[0006] It also includes a locator with a vertically extending limiting groove, through which the shovel head can extend and retract; a rod is provided below the locator, which can be inserted into the soil to fix the locator.
[0007] Furthermore, the cross-sectional diameter of the shovel head is larger than the cross-sectional diameter of the probe rod.
[0008] Furthermore, the limiting groove includes a first limiting groove at the upper end and a second limiting groove at the lower end. The diameter of the first limiting groove is larger than the diameter of the second limiting groove, and the diameter of the second limiting groove is larger than the cross-sectional diameter of the shovel head.
[0009] Furthermore, a limiting ring is fitted around the outer periphery of the shovel head. The limiting ring can move up and down along the body wall of the shovel head. The outer diameter of the limiting ring is the same as the diameter of the first limiting groove, so that the limiting ring can be just inserted into the first limiting groove.
[0010] Furthermore, the shovel head is spiral-shaped with a circular cross-section, and the bottom of the spiral blade of the shovel head has a cutting edge structure.
[0011] Furthermore, a level is provided on the upper surface of the locator.
[0012] Furthermore, the probe rod has graduations on its body wall.
[0013] Furthermore, handles are provided on both sides of the top of the probe.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0015] 1. The earthwork thickness detector for civil engineering supervision in this utility model example has a locator fixed to the ground by a rod, and a limiting groove and a limiting ring cooperate to guide the shovel head to descend vertically, reduce the tilt of the shovel head, and improve the measurement accuracy.
[0016] 2. In the example of this utility model, the earthwork thickness detector for civil engineering supervision has a limiting ring fitted on the shovel head, which can cooperate with the first limiting groove to limit the initial position of the shovel head's downward movement and ensure that the starting point of each measurement is consistent.
[0017] 3. The soil thickness detector for civil engineering supervision in this utility model adopts a spiral blade-shaped shovel head structure and a cutting edge structure, which can more easily cut into the soil layer, reduce resistance, and improve sampling efficiency.

[0024] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the relevant utility model and not intended to limit the scope of the utility model. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts relevant to the utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings.
[0025] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0026] Example 1:
[0027] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a soil thickness detector for civil engineering supervision, including a detection rod 1 and a shovel head 2. The shovel head 2 is connected to the lower part of the detection rod 1 and is used to shovel out soil. The top of the detection rod 1 is provided with handles 9 on both sides to facilitate applying force to the detector.
[0028] In this embodiment, the detector also includes a locator 3, which has a vertically extending limiting groove, allowing the shovel head 2 to extend into and out of the groove. A rod 4 is located below the locator 3, which can be inserted into the soil to fix the locator 3. A level 8 is located on the upper surface of the locator 3 to ensure it is level and further guarantee its verticality. The locator 3 is fixed to the ground by the rod 4, and the locator 3 positions the shovel head 2 at each insertion point, reducing the tilting of the shovel head 2.
[0029] Specifically, the cross-sectional diameter of the shovel head 2 is larger than that of the probe rod 1. During the excavation process, the locator 3 cannot accurately position the probe rod 1. Therefore, as... Figure 2 As shown, the limiting groove in this embodiment includes a first limiting groove 5 at the upper end and a second limiting groove 6 at the lower end. The diameter of the first limiting groove 5 is larger than the diameter of the second limiting groove 6, and the diameter of the second limiting groove 6 is larger than the cross-sectional diameter of the shovel head 2, to ensure that the shovel head 2 can smoothly pass through the locator 3. Figure 3 As shown, a limiting ring 7 is fitted around the outer periphery of the shovel head 2. The limiting ring 7 can move up and down along the body wall of the shovel head 2. The outer diameter of the limiting ring 7 is the same as the diameter of the first limiting groove 5, so that the limiting ring 7 can just fit into the first limiting groove 5. After the detector is lifted, the limiting ring 7 moves downward under the action of gravity and stops above the shovel head 2. Then the shovel head 2 is inserted into the locator 3 to shovel out the soil. During the downward movement of the probe rod 1, the limiting ring 7 always stays in the first limiting groove 5, limiting the probe rod 1. Through the cooperation of the limiting groove and the limiting ring 7, the shovel head 2 is guided to descend vertically, limiting the initial position of the shovel head 2, ensuring that the starting point of each measurement is consistent, reducing the tilt of the shovel head 2, and improving the measurement accuracy.
[0030] In addition, to facilitate direct measurement of earthwork thickness, a scale can be set on the body wall of the probe 1.
[0031] The detector in this embodiment can accurately measure the thickness of earthwork using a simple mechanical structure. It is simple in structure, low in manufacturing cost, and suitable for rapid on-site detection.
[0032] Example 2:
[0033] Based on Embodiment 1, this embodiment designs the shovel head 2 as a spiral blade structure with a circular cross-section. The bottom of the spiral blade of the shovel head 2 is a cutting edge structure. By adopting the spiral blade structure of the shovel head 2 and the cutting edge structure, it is easier to cut into the soil layer, reduce resistance, and improve sampling efficiency.
[0034] Those skilled in the art should understand that the scope of the utility model involved in this application is not limited to the technical solutions formed by specific combinations of the above-mentioned technical features, but should also cover other technical solutions formed by arbitrary combinations of the above-mentioned technical features or their equivalent features without departing from the inventive concept. For example, technical solutions formed by substituting the above-mentioned features with technical features disclosed in this application (but not limited to) that have similar functions.
