Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of slope monitoring technology, specifically to a real-time slope deformation monitoring device based on fiber optic sensors. Background Technology
[0002] The real-time slope deformation monitoring device based on fiber optic sensors utilizes the high sensitivity, electromagnetic interference resistance, and corrosion resistance of fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors to achieve real-time monitoring of multi-dimensional parameters such as slope displacement, strain, and seepage. The FBG sensor senses changes in the period or refractive index of the fiber grating caused by soil deformation, converting physical quantities into measurable wavelength shift signals. Combined with distributed embedding technology, a high-density monitoring network can be constructed, covering the slope surface to key deep areas. The system boasts millimeter-level displacement measurement accuracy and a second-level data update frequency, supporting dual backup storage in the cloud and locally to ensure data security. By analyzing sensor array data in real time and combining it with machine learning algorithms, potential slip surfaces can be accurately located and landslide risk levels can be predicted, enabling graded early warning. This device is suitable for complex geological environments such as highways, railways, and mines, especially in remote mountainous areas or areas with severe electromagnetic interference, where its long lifespan and low maintenance costs are significant advantages, providing reliable technical support for geological disaster prevention and control. However, improving the adaptability of fiber optic sensors in real-time slope deformation monitoring is a pressing issue that needs to be addressed.
[0003] A search revealed that CN220105786U discloses a real-time monitoring device for slope deformation in deep foundation pit excavation. The device includes a base plate, ground nails, and a protective shell. An adjustment mechanism is installed on the top surface of the protective shell, and a detection mechanism is installed inside. Through a conductive positioning cone connected to a conductive rope, when the slope of the deep foundation pit deforms, the protective shell connected to the deep foundation pit changes position with the slope. The conductive positioning cone then contacts the conductive sleeve, connecting the audible and visual alarm to the battery via the conductive rope and conductive connecting wire. This causes the audible and visual alarm to continuously illuminate and emit an alarm sound, alerting workers to the slope deformation. By rotating the handwheel, the placement plate moves upward with the threaded sleeve, changing the height of the audible and visual alarm to a position visible to the naked eye, making the monitoring device adaptable to different terrains and easy to observe.
[0004] The height adjustment of the aforementioned real-time monitoring device for slope deformation in deep foundation pit excavation relies on manually turning a handwheel, which cannot adjust the tilt angle synchronously and is difficult to adapt to complex slope terrain (such as multi-level slopes and irregular slopes). Therefore, it has the problem of poor adaptability in slope monitoring. Utility Model Content

[0028] This design solves the problem of poor adaptability of existing technologies that rely on manual rotation of the handwheel, cannot synchronously adjust the tilt angle, and are difficult to adapt to complex slope terrains such as multi-level slopes and irregular slopes, by using dual-degree-of-freedom precision adjustment and detection height adjustment.

[0044] The cable tray 352 facilitates the wiring of the fiber optic sensor body 4, preventing the cable of the fiber optic sensor body 4 from accumulating and tangling at the upper tray 35.
[0045] Working principle:
[0046] First, select a suitable slope location and place the base 11 on the slope. Then, use external tools to insert the drilling rod 13, which is inserted into the hole 111, into the ground.
[0047] When installing the fiber optic sensor body 4 on top of the upper tray 35, the mesh groove plate 351 at the bottom of the upper tray 35 can prevent rainwater from accumulating at the upper tray 35; the cable groove 352 can facilitate the wiring of the fiber optic sensor body 4 and prevent the cable of the fiber optic sensor body 4 from accumulating and tangling at the upper tray 35.
[0048] Specifically, holding and turning the first handle 222 can drive the first rotating shaft 22 and the worm 221 to rotate, and under the meshing cooperation of the worm 221 and the worm wheel 231, the second rotating shaft 23 located inside the worm wheel 231 can drive the support plate 24 and the vertical seat 25 to perform tilting rotation.

Under the meshing of the first conical tooth 321 and the second conical tooth 331, the threaded rod 33 located at the top of the second conical tooth 331 will rotate synchronously. At this time, the slide 34 threaded to the outside of the threaded rod 33 can perform lifting and lowering work inside the vertical seat 25. At the same time, the ear bracket 341 located outside the slide 34 will also drive the mesh plate 351 and the fiber optic sensor body 4 to move up and down above the vertical seat 25.
