Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sensor installation technology for internally suspended poles, specifically to a sensor installation structure for internally suspended poles. Background Technology
[0002] Internally suspended pylons are key equipment in the construction of high-voltage transmission line towers, and their safety status directly affects construction efficiency and personnel safety. Traditional pylon systems require real-time monitoring of parameters such as tilt angle and tension to ensure stability during the hoisting process; therefore, the installation accuracy and reliability of the sensors are crucial.
[0003] During internal suspension gantry construction, precise monitoring of the gantry tilt angle is necessary to ensure safety. Existing tilt sensors are mostly installed using simple bolt fixing or strapping methods. While these methods can achieve basic functions, they still have significant limitations under complex working conditions. When the gantry is subjected to force and swaying or under long-term vibration, the sensor is prone to rotational displacement around the gantry, causing the measurement reference plane to shift and affecting the accuracy of tilt angle measurement. Summary of the Invention
[0004] (a) Technical problems to be solved
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a sensor mounting structure with an internally suspended mast, featuring automatic centering compensation and modular quick-installation functions. This solves the problems of traditional installation methods, which are prone to rotational displacement around the mast, leading to deviation of the measurement reference plane, affecting the accuracy of tilt angle measurement, and causing installation difficulties.

[0019] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0020] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a sensor mounting structure with an internally suspended mast, which has the following advantages:
[0021] 1. This sensor installation structure for an internally suspended pole completely revolutionizes traditional installation methods through an innovative quick-clamping mechanism. In existing widely used technologies, sensor installation requires workers to first align the mounting holes and then tighten multiple bolts one by one in a crisscross pattern. This process not only requires carrying specialized tools such as wrenches but also carries the risk of bolts falling during high-altitude work. The installation process is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and poses safety hazards. In contrast, this invention employs a three-step "placement-pressurization-locking" method: first, the sensor module is placed against the pole surface; then, the handle is pressed down to initially tighten the anti-slip pad; finally, the locking mechanism is rotated to the self-locking position. The entire installation process can be completed with just one hand, without any auxiliary tools, simplifying the operation and significantly improving the safety of high-altitude work.
[0022] 2. This sensor mounting structure with an internally suspended mast effectively improves the stability of sensor installation through a unique anti-rotation design. Existing technologies commonly use straps or simple clamps for fixing, which can easily cause the sensor to rotate around the mast when subjected to wind or hoisting vibrations, leading to inaccurate measurement data. This invention, however, uses an L-shaped self-locking groove and an elastic anti-slip pad to form a dual anti-rotation mechanism of mechanical limiting and friction, ensuring that the sensor maintains a stable installation position under various working conditions, fundamentally solving the rotational offset problem inherent in traditional installation methods. Specifically, when the sensor is subjected to rotational force, the vertical limiting surface of the L-shaped groove forms a mechanical barrier, while the fish-scale pattern of the anti-slip pad generates greater sliding resistance. This dual protection ensures that the sensor will not shift its position even under strong winds or severe vibrations. Attached Figure Description

[0036] 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.
[0037] Please see Figures 1-3 This device is primarily used to securely mount various monitoring sensors 1 onto a cylindrical pole. Its core consists of four parts: First, a mounting bracket 2, which is fixedly connected to the sensor 1 body with screws. The bottom of the bracket has a lower module 21, which is machined with a precisely machined semi-circular groove. Second, a matching upper module 4, also machined with a matching semi-circular groove, perfectly encasing the pole when the upper and lower modules 21 are closed. To ensure installation accuracy, a guide and limiting structure 5 is specially designed. This structure consists of a precision-machined guide groove 51 and a limiting block, ensuring that the upper module 4 moves along a predetermined trajectory and reliably locks in place. The most distinctive feature is its clamping mechanism. Through a clever handle 61 linkage design, the operator only needs to operate the handle 61 with one hand to smoothly lower the upper module 4, causing the semi-circular grooves 3 of the upper and lower modules 21 to tightly engage with the pole surface. The entire installation process requires no tools and takes only a few seconds from start to finish, greatly improving the efficiency and safety of high-altitude operations. In existing widely used technologies, the installation of sensor 1 requires construction personnel to first align the installation holes and then tighten multiple bolts one by one in a crisscross pattern. The entire process not only requires carrying special tools such as wrenches, but also poses a risk of bolts falling off when working at heights. The installation process is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and poses safety hazards. In contrast, this utility model adopts a three-step operation method of "placement-pressing-locking": first, the sensor 1 module is attached to the surface of the pole, then the handle 61 is pressed down to initially tighten the anti-slip pad, and finally the locking mechanism is rotated to the self-locking position. The entire installation process can be completed with only one hand without any auxiliary tools, which simplifies the operation process and significantly improves the safety of working at heights.
[0038] Please see Figures 4-5 The installation structure of this utility model has an anti-slip textured pad 31 on the inner surface of the semi-circular groove 3. The anti-slip textured pad 31 is made of elastic material and has regularly arranged anti-slip protrusions on its surface. The guide and limiting structure 5 includes a guide groove 51 and an adjacent limiting groove 52 on the mounting bracket 2. The limiting groove 52 is distributed in an array at fixed intervals along one side of the guide groove 51. The upper module 4 has a sliding block 41 that cooperates with the guide groove 51 at the corresponding position. When the clamping structure 6 is activated, it drives the upper module 4 to move, causing the sliding block 41 to move linearly along the guide groove 51. After the upper and lower modules 21 are closed and clamp the gripping rod, the operator can push the sliding block 41 into the limiting groove 52 to achieve initial positioning. The limiting groove 52 is designed as an L-shaped structure, consisting of mutually perpendicular and interconnected transverse and longitudinal groove segments. During installation, the sliding block 41 first moves along the transverse groove to the L-shaped corner. At this point, the anti-slip pad 31 deforms under pressure, generating an elastic restoring force. This restoring force acts parallel to the longitudinal groove, pushing the sliding block 41 along the longitudinal groove to the end, forming a stable self-locking state. This structure achieves reliable installation and fixing through the synergistic effect of elastic elements and mechanical limits. Existing technologies commonly use strap fixing or simple clamps, which can easily cause the sensor 1 to rotate around the pole when the pole is subjected to wind or hoisting vibrations, leading to inaccurate measurement data. This invention, through the combination of the L-shaped self-locking groove and the elastic anti-slip pad, forms a dual anti-rotation mechanism of mechanical limits and friction, ensuring that the sensor 1 maintains a stable installation position under various working conditions, fundamentally solving the rotational offset problem of traditional installation methods. Specifically, when the sensor 1 is subjected to a rotational force, the vertical limiting surface of the L-shaped groove forms a mechanical block, while the fish-scale pattern of the anti-slip pad generates greater sliding resistance. This dual protection ensures that the sensor 1 will not shift its position even under strong winds or severe vibrations.
[0039] Please see Figures 1-6 The lower module 21 has a clamping block 22 fixedly installed at its end. The clamping structure 6 is rotatably connected to the clamping block 22 via a rotating shaft. The clamping structure 6 is generally disc-shaped, with a handle 61 at its center. The clamping block 22 is eccentrically arranged relative to the center of the clamping structure 6. The clamping structure 6 has an eccentrically arranged arc-shaped clamping track 62 inside. The upper module 4 has a corresponding fixed block 42 that cooperates with the clamping track 62. When the operating handle 61 drives the clamping structure 6 to rotate around the center, the fixed block 42 slides along the clamping track 62, thereby driving the upper module 4 to move linearly to the lower module 21. To further enhance the structural strength, the clamping structure 6 has radially distributed reinforcing ribs 63 inside.
[0040] When in use, first cover the pole with the module, press down the handle 61 with one hand to make the anti-slip pad elastically deform and fit the surface of the pole, then rotate the handle 61 to drive the sliding block 41 to move along the transverse section of the L-shaped limiting groove 52 to the corner. Under the action of the anti-slip pad's rebound force, it automatically slides into the end of the longitudinal section to complete self-locking. Disassembly can be done by reversing the operation. The whole process does not require tools and can effectively prevent the sensor 1 from rotating and shifting due to the dual action of mechanical limiting of the L-shaped limiting groove 52 and friction of the anti-slip pad 31. After pressing down, the clamping structure 6 can be disassembled and reused.
[0041] In summary, this sensor mounting structure with an internally suspended mast significantly improves installation efficiency and stability through its innovative quick-clamping mechanism and unique anti-rotation design. Compared to existing widely used technologies—the cumbersome process of aligning the installation holes and tightening multiple bolts in a crisscross pattern, which carries the risk of tools falling, and the strap-on method which is prone to rotation and displacement under wind or vibration—this invention achieves a revolutionary improvement: it adopts an intuitive three-step operation method of "placement-pressing-locking." With just one hand, the sensor 1 module is placed against the surface of the support pole, and the handle 61 is pressed down to initially tighten the anti-slip pad. Then, the locking mechanism is rotated to the self-locking position to complete the installation, requiring no auxiliary tools. Simultaneously, through the synergistic effect of the L-shaped self-locking groove and the elastic anti-slip pad, when the sensor 1 is subjected to rotational force, the vertical limiting surface of the L-shaped groove provides mechanical resistance. Combined with the frictional resistance generated by the fish-scale pattern of the anti-slip pad, a dual anti-rotation mechanism is formed, ensuring a stable installation position under various working conditions. This solves the problems of time-consuming, labor-intensive, and safety hazards associated with traditional installation methods, and effectively avoids inaccurate measurement data caused by the rotation of the sensor 1.
