Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of inclinometer technology, specifically to a fully automatic winding device for inclinometers. Background Technology
[0002] Foundation construction is a crucial component of building construction, and foundation pit construction is a vital part of foundation building. However, its potential hazards pose the greatest threat to safe construction. Collapses due to foundation pits, trenches, and manually excavated bored piles are frequent occurrences during foundation construction. Therefore, the safety of foundation pits and trenches is paramount to ensuring the safety of foundation construction. To address this, it is necessary to pre-embed inclinometers with guide channels around the foundation pit, using inclinometers for real-time monitoring. High-precision sensors measure the inclination angle or displacement changes of the foundation pit, and wireless transmission technology and a cloud platform enable real-time data analysis. This allows for efficient and rapid data acquisition, quick early warning of foundation pit safety, and rapid development of response plans, significantly reducing the occurrence of accidents and personnel casualties.
[0003] Currently, the measuring rod of the inclinometer is suspended by ropes, allowing it to rise and fall within the pit. The ropes also provide power and data transmission for the measuring rod. The ropes are either manually wound or powered by a motor. When winding the rope, an electric screw mechanism is usually used to actively move the section of the rope between the pressing mechanism and the winding drum. This allows the rope to move relative to the winding drum to a suitable position to achieve neat alignment. However, this causes the position of the rope exiting the winding drum and the position of the pressing mechanism to constantly change, which can easily lead to rope swaying. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0033] The technical solutions of the present invention will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments thereof. Please refer to... Figures 1 to 3 One embodiment of this utility model provides a fully automatic winding device for an inclinometer, comprising: a frame 10, a drive mechanism 20, a winding drum 30, and a wire pressing mechanism 40;
[0034] The drive mechanism 20 includes a fixed gear 21, a rotating seat 22, a power assembly 23, a transmission gear 24, and a reciprocating lead screw 25;
[0035] The fixed gear 21 is fixedly mounted on the frame 10;
[0036] The rotating base 22 is rotatably mounted on the frame 10;
[0037] The power unit 23 is mounted on the frame 10 and is driven to the rotating seat 22 to drive the rotating seat 22 to rotate relative to the fixed gear 21.
[0038] The transmission gear 24 is rotatably mounted on the rotating seat 22 and meshes with the fixed gear 21. When the rotating seat 22 rotates, the transmission gear 24 rotates around the fixed gear 21 and rotates under the drive of the fixed gear 21.
[0039] The reciprocating screw 25 is connected to the transmission gear 24 and extends along the rotation axis of the rotating seat 22. The reciprocating screw 25 is threadedly engaged with the take-up drum 30, and the take-up drum 30 moves back and forth under the drive of the reciprocating screw 25.
[0040] The pressing mechanism 40 is arranged on one side of the take-up drum 30.
[0041] The working principle of a fully automatic winding device for an inclinometer according to an embodiment of this utility model is explained below:
[0042] A rope is wound on the take-up drum 30, and the end of the rope passes through the pressing mechanism 40 and is connected to the measuring rod. When unwinding the rope, the power component 23 drives the rotating seat 22 to rotate. When the rotating seat 22 rotates, the take-up drum 30 rotates with the rotating seat 22 to unwind the rope. The transmission gear 24 also rotates synchronously around the fixed gear 21. Since the transmission gear 24 meshes with the fixed gear 21, the transmission gear 24 will also rotate on its own axis when it rotates around the fixed gear 21. When the transmission gear 24 rotates on its own axis, it will drive the reciprocating screw 25 to rotate. The rotation of the reciprocating screw 25 will drive the take-up drum 30 to move along the rotation axis of the rotating seat 22, thereby adjusting the movement of the take-up drum 30 relative to the pressing mechanism 40, so that the exit position of the take-up drum 30 corresponds to the position of the pressing mechanism 40, so that the rope is neatly wound up without tangling.
[0043] Similarly, when winding the rope, the power unit 23 drives the rotating seat 22 to rotate. When the rotating seat 22 rotates, the winding drum 30 rotates with the rotating seat 22 to wind up the rope. The transmission gear 24 also rotates synchronously around the fixed gear 21. Since the transmission gear 24 meshes with the fixed gear 21, the transmission gear 24 will also rotate on its own axis when rotating around the fixed gear 21. When the transmission gear 24 rotates on its own axis, it will drive the reciprocating screw 25 to rotate. The rotation of the reciprocating screw 25 will drive the winding drum 30 to move along the rotation axis of the rotating seat 22, thereby adjusting the movement of the winding drum 30 relative to the pressing mechanism 40, so that the winding position of the winding drum 30 corresponds to the position of the pressing mechanism 40, which is conducive to the neat arrangement of the rope on the winding drum 30, thereby avoiding the rope from tangling itself.
[0044] It should be noted that the rope can be a cable, steel wire rope, etc., and the specific choice depends on the actual needs.
[0045] Please see Figure 4 In some optional embodiments, the rotating seat 22 includes a first rotating disk 221 and a second rotating disk 222, which are arranged sequentially in the axial direction of the fixed gear 21. The transmission gear is rotatably mounted on the first rotating disk 221. The power assembly 23 is drivenly connected to the first rotating disk 221. The reciprocating screw 25 is arranged between the first rotating disk 221 and the second rotating disk 222 and is rotatably engaged with the first rotating disk 221 and the second rotating disk 222 respectively. The take-up drum 30 is arranged between the first rotating disk 221 and the second rotating disk 222, thereby making the layout of the take-up drum 30 and the rotating seat 22 more compact and the structure more stable.
[0046] Please see Figure 5 In some optional embodiments, the rotating seat 22 further includes a plurality of guide rods 223, which are connected between the first rotating disk 221 and the second rotating disk 222 and extend along the rotation axis of the rotating seat 22. The plurality of guide rods 223 and the reciprocating screw 25 are evenly arranged around the rotation axis of the rotating seat 22. The take-up drum 30 slides with the guide rods 223. Through the guiding effect of the guide rods 223 and the positional arrangement of the guide rods 223 and the reciprocating screw 25, the movement stability of the take-up drum 30 is improved.
[0047] To facilitate the connection between the take-up drum 30 and the guide rod 223 and the reciprocating screw 25, in some optional embodiments, the take-up drum 30 is provided with a first slider 31 and a plurality of second sliders 32. The first slider 31 is threadedly engaged with the reciprocating screw 25, and the guide rod 223 is slidably engaged with the second sliders 32.
[0048] In some alternative embodiments, the power assembly 23 is located between the first rotating disk 221 and the second rotating disk 222, and a first clearance hole 33 is provided in the take-up drum 30. Part of the power assembly 23 is arranged in the first clearance hole 33. By hiding the power assembly 23 inside the rotating seat 22 and the take-up drum 30, space is effectively utilized to reduce the overall volume, thereby making the overall structure more compact.
[0049] In some optional embodiments, the power assembly 23 includes a drive motor 231, a connecting structure 232, and a fixing structure 233. The second rotating disk 222 is provided with a second clearance hole 33. The fixing structure 233 is mounted on the frame 10, and part of it extends from the second clearance hole 33 into the space between the first rotating disk 221 and the second rotating disk 222. The drive motor 231 and the connecting structure 232 are arranged between the first rotating disk 221 and the second rotating disk 222. The drive motor 231 is mounted on the fixing structure 233. The output shaft of the drive motor 231 is drivenly connected to the first rotating disk 221 through the connecting structure 232. Through the design of the fixing structure 233 and the second clearance hole 33, the drive motor 231 can be easily installed inside the rotating seat 22 and the winding drum 30, making the structure more reliable.
[0050] In some alternative embodiments, a plurality of support rollers 11 are rotatably arranged on the frame 10, and the plurality of support rollers 11 are arranged around the second rotating disk 222. The outer periphery of the second rotating disk 222 abuts against the support rollers 11, thereby improving the rotational stability of the second rotating disk 222.
[0051] Please see Figure 6In this embodiment, a fixed column 12 is provided on the frame 10, a fixed gear 21 is provided on the fixed column 12, and a bearing 13 is provided on the fixed column 12. The first rotating disk 221 rotates in cooperation with the bearing 13, so the first rotating disk 221 and the second rotating disk 222 can be stably supported.
[0052] Please see Figure 7 The specific structure of the pressing mechanism 40 can be designed according to actual needs. For example, in some optional embodiments, the pressing mechanism 40 includes a limiting roller 41, a measuring wheel 42, and an encoder 43. The limiting roller 41 is rotatably mounted on the frame 10. The measuring wheel 42 is arranged on one side of the limiting roller 41 and forms a thread-passing gap 44 between it and the limiting roller 41. The rope passes through the thread-passing gap 44. The encoder 43 is connected to the measuring wheel 42. The length of the rope passing through the thread-passing gap 44 is calculated by the encoder 43 calculating the number of rotations of the measuring wheel 42.
[0053] In some optional embodiments, the pressing mechanism 40 further includes a movable seat 45 and several elastic elements 46. The movable seat 45 is movably mounted on the frame 10 and is connected to the frame 10 by the elastic elements 46. The measuring wheel 42 is rotatably mounted on the movable seat 45. The elastic force of the elastic elements 46 pulls the measuring wheel 42 toward the limiting roller 41, thereby enabling the measuring wheel 42 to press the rope toward the limiting roller 41 and prevent the rope from swaying or shifting position. In this embodiment, the elastic element 46 is a spring, but this is not a limitation.
[0054] In some optional embodiments, a limiting groove 411 is provided on the limiting roller 41, a portion of the measuring wheel 42 extends into the limiting groove 411, a line passage gap 44 is formed between the limiting groove 411 and the measuring wheel 42, the rope passes through the limiting groove 411, and the measuring wheel 42 presses the rope into the limiting groove 411. The limiting groove 411 and the measuring wheel 42 can stably limit the position of the rope and prevent irregular movement of the rope when unwinding or rewinding.
[0055] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
