Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of axis measurement technology, and in particular to an auxiliary device for laser rangefinder measurement. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, China has achieved certain results in the construction technology of flap gates, such as the successful application of hydraulically controlled flap gates in some mountainous rivers and urban waterways. However, most of these studies focus on single river basins or specific types of rivers, and systematic research on flap gate construction technology for multi-basin rivers is still relatively lacking.
[0003] There is some research and application of flap gate design and construction abroad, but due to the significant differences between foreign river conditions and those in my country, their construction techniques and experience cannot be directly copied and applied to the multi-basin rivers in my country.
[0004] With the continuous development of water conservancy projects, the requirements for flap gate construction technology are becoming increasingly higher, and there is an urgent need to carry out relevant research to fill the gap in this field.
[0005] Research on precision control methods during the installation of flap gates, such as using high-precision measuring instruments and methods to accurately measure and adjust the gate's installation position, elevation, verticality, and horizontality, to ensure that the gate's installation precision meets design requirements.
[0006] Traditional axis measurement uses steel tape measure, plumb line, GPS, and total station for positioning. For large spans and high-altitude operations, this method is difficult to operate and has poor measurement accuracy, which can easily lead to the inability to install subsequent gates and the need to cut steel components. Summary of the Invention
[0007] The present invention aims to address the shortcomings of the prior art by providing an auxiliary device for laser rangefinder measurement.
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: An auxiliary device for laser rangefinder measurement includes an inverted L-shaped square steel tube, a straight square steel tube, a rotating bracket, and a reflector. The two inverted L-shaped square steel tubes are respectively fastened to both sides of a gate pier by locking bolts. The top horizontal square steel tube of the inverted L-shaped square steel tube is suspended above the top of the gate pier. The straight square steel tube is movably inserted into the top horizontal square steel tubes on both sides. Bolt holes are provided on the top horizontal square steel tube, and locking bolts are inserted into the bolt holes. The ends of the locking bolts abut against the straight square steel tube. The top of the rotating bracket is connected to the middle of the bottom of the straight square steel tube, and the reflector is connected to the rotating bracket.
[0009] The inverted L-shaped square steel pipe has two bolt holes at the bottom of its vertical square steel pipe.
[0010] A rubber pad is placed between the end of the locking bolt on the vertical square steel pipe and the gate pier.
[0011] The rotating support includes a stainless steel plate, a stainless steel ball, a stainless steel circular sleeve with external threads, a stainless steel circular sleeve with internal threads, and a stainless steel column. The bottom end of the stainless steel column is connected to the stainless steel ball. The stainless steel circular sleeve with internal threads has a circular hole on its top surface, through which the stainless steel column extends. The stainless steel circular sleeve with internal threads is threaded to the upper part of the stainless steel circular sleeve with external threads. The stainless steel ball is fitted into the cavity formed by the stainless steel circular sleeve with internal threads and the stainless steel circular sleeve with external threads. The stainless steel plate is connected to the bottom surface of the stainless steel circular sleeve with external threads, and a stainless steel screw passes through the lower part of the stainless steel plate.
[0012] The rubber pad is surrounded by a steel ring.
[0013] The rotating bracket mentioned can rotate 360°.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model uses a distance measuring instrument to measure distance by setting up a measurement auxiliary device, which replaces the traditional steel tape measure, plumb line, GPS, and total station to determine the axis position. It can effectively solve measurement errors, make measurement simpler and more convenient, reduce safety hazards during measurement, improve axis positioning accuracy, and is not affected by strong winds, thus improving work efficiency.

Detailed Implementation
[0016] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments: An auxiliary device for laser rangefinder measurement includes an inverted L-shaped square steel tube 1, a straight square steel tube 2, a rotating bracket 6, and a reflector 5. The two inverted L-shaped square steel tubes 1 are respectively fastened to the two sides of a gate pier 7 by locking bolts 3. The top horizontal square steel tube 11 of the inverted L-shaped square steel tube 1 is suspended above the top of the gate pier 7. The straight square steel tube 2 is movably inserted into the top horizontal square steel tubes 11 on both sides. Bolt holes are provided on the top horizontal square steel tube 11, and locking bolts 3 are inserted into the bolt holes. The ends of the locking bolts 3 abut against the straight square steel tube 2. The top of the rotating bracket 6 is connected to the middle of the bottom of the straight square steel tube 2, and the reflector 5 is connected to the rotating bracket 6.
[0017] The inverted L-shaped square steel pipe 1 has two bolt holes at the bottom of its vertical square steel pipe 12.
[0018] A rubber pad 4 is placed between the end of the locking bolt 3 on the vertical square steel pipe 12 and the gate pier 7.
[0019] The rotating support 6 includes a stainless steel plate 62, a stainless steel ball 63, a stainless steel circular sleeve 64 with external threads, a stainless steel circular sleeve 65 with internal threads, and a stainless steel column 66. The bottom end of the stainless steel column 66 is connected to the stainless steel ball 63. The top surface of the stainless steel circular sleeve 65 with internal threads has a circular hole through which the stainless steel column 66 extends. The stainless steel circular sleeve 65 with internal threads is threaded to the upper part of the stainless steel circular sleeve 64 with external threads. The stainless steel ball 63 is fitted into the inner cavity formed by the stainless steel circular sleeve 65 with internal threads and the stainless steel circular sleeve 64 with external threads. The stainless steel plate 62 is connected to the bottom surface of the stainless steel circular sleeve 64 with external threads, and a stainless steel screw 61 passes through the lower part of the stainless steel plate 62.
[0020] The rubber pad 4 mentioned above is surrounded by a steel ring.
[0021] The rotating bracket 6 mentioned can rotate 360°.
[0022] (1) Place the laser rangefinder 8 at the starting axis 9 (A axis) position. Set an auxiliary device 13 (i.e. this utility model) for laser rangefinder measurement that is fixed to the gate pier 7 near the axis to be measured 10 (B axis). It is required that the auxiliary device 13 for laser rangefinder measurement is firmly fixed to the gate pier 7 and the direction of the reflector 5 can be adjusted left and right. After fixing the auxiliary device 13 for laser rangefinder measurement, adjust the verticality of the reflector 5.
[0023] (2) After the laser beam emitted by the laser rangefinder 8 hits the fixed reflector 5 (point P), it is reflected back to the laser rangefinder 8. The distance from axis A to reflector 5 is measured by the laser rangefinder 8 to determine the first point P of the axis. Then, the second point Q of the axis is determined by the same measurement. By comparing the distances measured twice, the left and right directions of reflector 5 are adjusted. Re-measurement and adjustment of reflector 5 are performed until the distance error between the two points is within the allowable range.
[0024] (3) After the measurement is completed, draw points and lines on the column or component based on the lower edge of the reflector 5, and finally determine the position of the B axis according to the design axis dimensions.
