Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of forestry slope measurement technology, and in particular to a device for measuring forestry slope. Background Technology

[0002] When conducting surveys of forest land and mountainous areas, it is inevitable to encounter the problem of measuring slope and aspect. How to accurately locate and quickly obtain slope and aspect data has become a necessary problem to solve, so as to provide a guarantee for subsequent forestry site surveys.

[0003] A Chinese patent with authorization announcement number CN209279964U discloses a device for measuring the angle of forest slopes, including: a measuring base, a support frame, a mounting frame, and an angle measuring disc. The support frame is vertically installed above the measuring base, and the mounting frame is vertically installed on the top of the support frame. An angle measuring disc fixing plate is welded to one side of the support frame in a cross-shaped structure. The angle measuring disc fixing plate and the angle measuring disc have holes of the same diameter, and bolt assemblies are inserted into the holes to install the angle measuring disc on the angle measuring disc fixing plate. The structure is simple and the operation is convenient.

[0004] The shortcomings of the above-mentioned existing technical solutions are: during measurement, it is necessary to ensure that the measuring base is parallel to the slope. However, the measuring base is just an ordinary disc base, which cannot accurately determine whether the device is parallel to the slope, thus affecting the measurement accuracy and making it inconvenient to use.

[0028] Reference Figures 1 to 4This utility model provides a device for measuring slope in forestry, comprising: a base 1, an adapter end 14, and a protective frame 16. A vertical support 4 is provided on the upper end of the base 1, and an angle measuring disc 10 is fixedly connected to the side end face of the vertical support 4. A fixing plate 5 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the vertical support 4, and a measuring rope 8 is provided below the fixing plate 5. A counterweight 9 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the measuring rope 8. Adapter ends 14 are provided on both sides of the base 1, and adapter shafts 15 are rotatably connected to the end faces of both sides of the adapter end 14. The protective frame 16 includes symmetrically arranged support rods 161, which are fixedly connected to the adapter shafts 15 at both ends of the adapter end 14. An inclined rod 162 is fixedly connected to the end of the support rod 161 away from the base 1. Figure 1 As shown, the tilting rod 162 is set horizontally and tilted towards the side closer to the vertical support 4. A reinforcing rod 163 is fixedly connected between the tilting rods 162.

[0029] A connecting rod 6 is fixedly connected to the lower end face of the fixed plate 5, and a bearing 7 is fixedly connected to the lower end face of the connecting rod 6. The outer ring of the bearing 7 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 6, and the measuring rope 8 is fixedly connected to the inner ring of the bearing 7. The angle measuring disc 10 is set in a semi-circular ring shape and is coaxial with the bearing 7. When in use, the device is placed on a slope. When the slope measuring device is at a certain angle to the horizontal plane, the counterweight 9 on the measuring rope 8 keeps the measuring rope 8 perpendicular to the horizontal plane through gravity. At this time, the measuring rope 8 will be parallel to the scale mark corresponding to the angle on the angle measuring disc 10. Then, the angle value of the rope corresponding to the angle measuring disc 10 is read. By using the theorem of similar triangles (the angle between the measuring rope 8 and the vertical support 4 is the angle of the measured slope), the angle of the measured slope can be obtained.

[0030] In some specific embodiments, two support rods 161 and two tilting rods 162 are provided.

[0031] A rotating seat 2 is fixedly connected to the base 1, and a rotating plate 3 is rotatably connected to the rotating seat 2. A vertical support 4 is fixedly connected to the rotating plate 3, so that the vertical support 4 can rotate. By rotating the vertical support 4, the measuring rope 8 and the angle measuring disk 10 can be rotated, which makes it easier to measure the maximum tilt angle of the slope.

[0032] A fixing rod 11 is fixedly connected to the end face of the vertical support 4. A fixing block 12 is fixedly connected to the fixing rod 11. A slot 13 is provided on the fixing block 12. When the transport device is in operation, the measuring rope 8 can be wound and fixed to the fixing rod 11, and the slot 13 can be engaged in the counterweight block 9, thereby fixing the measuring rope 8 and the counterweight block 9 and preventing damage to the measuring rope 8 and the counterweight block 9 during transport.

[0033] Workflow:

[0034] In use, unfold the protective frames 16 at both ends of the base 1. When the protective frames 16 at both ends are in a straight line, it can be determined that the device is parallel to the slope surface, which helps to improve the accuracy of slope inclination angle measurement and also improves the ease of use of the device. When it is necessary to carry the device, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the protective frames 16 at both ends of the base 1 can be folded up towards one side of the vertical support 4, so that the inclined rods 162 of the protective frames 16 at both ends abut against each other. The protective frames 16 and the base 1 can form a protective structure to protect the internal measuring components. There is no need to prepare a separate storage box to store the device. The entire device can be carried by holding the two reinforcing rods 163. The overall structure of the device is ingeniously designed and has good ease of use and practicality. A fixing rod 11 is fixedly connected to the end face of the vertical support 4. A fixing block 12 is fixedly connected to the fixing rod 11. A slot 13 is opened on the fixing block 12. When carrying the device, the measuring rope 8 can be wrapped and fixed to the fixing rod 11, and the slot 13 can be engaged in the counterweight 9 to fix the measuring rope 8 and the counterweight 9, thereby preventing damage to the measuring rope 8 and the counterweight 9 during the transportation process.
