Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of building surveying, and more particularly to a verticality measuring device for use in the building field. Background Technology

[0002] In the construction process, measuring the verticality of structures such as walls and columns is a key step in ensuring project quality. Traditional measurement methods mainly rely on plumb lines or optical instruments. Plumb lines are simple to operate but are easily affected by wind and have low measurement accuracy. While laser levels are highly accurate, they are expensive and power-dependent, limiting their use in complex construction environments. In addition, existing measuring devices are often bulky and inconvenient to carry and fix when working at heights or in confined spaces. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a measuring tool that is simple in structure, easy to carry, unaffected by environmental interference, and can quickly determine verticality to improve construction efficiency and reduce measurement costs.

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, a verticality measuring device for the construction industry is now being developed. Utility Model Content

[0017] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0018] A verticality measuring device for use in the construction industry, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, the device includes a mounting plate 1, a vacuum suction cup 2 on the upper rear side of the mounting plate 1, a switch 3 rotatably mounted on the front side of the vacuum suction cup 2, an assist block on the switch 3, and the switch 3 located on the front side of the mounting plate 1. A first fastener 6 is threadedly mounted on the lower front side of the mounting plate 1, a first measuring ruler 4 is rotatably connected to the first fastener 6, a connector 5 is mounted on the front side of the first measuring ruler 4, a level 7 is snapped onto the connector 5, and the level 7 and the connector 5 are detachably connected. A second fastener 9 is threadedly connected to the first measuring ruler 4, and a second measuring ruler 8 is mounted between the second fasteners 9. The second measuring ruler 8 can fit against the building wall, and the rear plane of the second measuring ruler 8 is consistent with the rear plane of the vacuum suction cup 2.

[0019] It should be noted that this verticality measuring device is attached to the wall of the building to be measured by a vacuum suction cup 2. Utilizing the self-weight drooping characteristic of the first measuring ruler 4 combined with the calibration function of the level 7, it quickly and accurately determines whether the wall is vertical. The specific working process is as follows: First, press the vacuum suction cup 2 on the upper part of the mounting plate 1 onto the wall to be measured. Operate the vacuum suction cup 2 to fix it in place using the switch 3 on the front side. The assist block on the switch 3 facilitates the application of force, ensuring the suction cup is tightly attached to the wall. The lower front part of the mounting plate 1 is threadedly connected to the first measuring ruler 4 via a first fastener 6. This measuring ruler can rotate freely around the first fastener 6 and naturally droops under gravity, forming a vertical reference. The front side of the first measuring ruler 4 has a connector 5 for engaging the level 7. The level 7 and the connector 5 are detachable for easy adjustment or replacement. After adsorption and fixation, observe the position of the bubble on the level 7. If the bubble is centered, it indicates that the first measuring ruler 4 is in a vertical state, thus proving that the verticality of the mounting plate 1 and the wall surface being adsorbed is good. If the bubble is off-center, the wall surface needs to be adjusted or the device needs to be recalibrated. To further improve the measurement accuracy, the device is also equipped with a second measuring ruler 8, which is threaded onto the first measuring ruler 4 through the second fastener 9. Its back is flush with the back of the vacuum suction cup 2 to ensure that the measurement reference is consistent. During measurement, the second measuring ruler 8 is attached to the wall surface. By observing the gap or offset, the verticality deviation of the wall surface can be quantitatively calculated. This device combines the principle of gravity self-falling with the calibration of the level 7. It does not require electric drive, has a simple and reliable structure, and is suitable for rapid detection of the verticality of various building walls. It is especially suitable for high-altitude or narrow space operations, which greatly improves measurement efficiency and accuracy.

[0020] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. All equivalent substitutions made within the principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Contents not described in detail in this utility model are existing technologies known to those skilled in the art.
