Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a ground subsidence monitoring device in a mining area, belonging to the field of ground subsidence monitoring technology. Background Technology

[0002] Ground subsidence is a common geological hazard, referring to the phenomenon where surface soil and rock collapse downwards under natural or human factors, forming sinkholes (caves) on the ground. It often occurs in karst areas, mining areas, loess collapsible areas, or areas where groundwater is excessively extracted. Its hazards are severe, potentially leading to building damage, road interruption, and casualties. Therefore, monitoring ground subsidence is a crucial link in preventing future disasters. The aim is to prevent and handle impending accidents in a timely manner through monitoring and early warning, thereby reducing disaster risks. Effective monitoring and control are essential.

[0003] Ground subsidence in mining areas is mainly caused by mining activities, such as goaf areas, changes in groundwater levels, and ground pressure activity. These are key areas for monitoring. Given the large number of people in mining areas, ensuring the safety of their lives and property is paramount. Monitoring requires practical and specific information, and the wide monitoring area necessitates a large number of monitoring devices. This increases costs, complicates maintenance, and leads to inaccurate information processing. In the event of emergencies or equipment malfunctions, information may be unavailable. Regular equipment checks are also required, increasing workload. Inadequate monitoring not only fails to provide comprehensive monitoring but also fails to meet the diverse needs of different situations, resulting in poor practical application, lack of accuracy and efficiency. These are all factors we need to consider.

The monitoring device 11 is installed at the top of the lifting rod 10, controlling its height to expand the monitoring range. The monitoring device 11 is designed for panoramic monitoring, providing a wide monitoring range and facilitating better monitoring of the surrounding terrain. The solar energy device 9 allows for charging outdoors without cables, ensuring safety and environmental friendliness. During the subsidence alarm process of the subsidence alarm device 3, if ground subsidence is detected and the entire device is about to fall or be damaged, the flight device 7 can be activated to fly through the disconnection between the support columns 6, ensuring the device's safety. In adverse situations, it can also monitor the ground, helping staff to better understand the ground subsidence situation and take timely rescue and response measures. The subsidence alarm device 3 is mainly connected to multiple detection target devices 5.
