In a downhole multi-component symmetrical crustal deformation observation device and its usage method, a conductive spherical
pendulum is located at the center of an east, west, south, and
north pole plate. The conductive spherical
pendulum, the east, west, south, and
north pole plates are all connected to a
signal conditioning circuit, which in turn is connected to a
data acquisition unit. During application, the
signal conditioning circuit first emits two signals of different frequencies. When the crust tilts, the conductive spherical
pendulum undergoes
relative displacement with the east, west, south, and
north pole plates, resulting in two linearly superimposed amplitude-modulated signals. The tilt angle of the conductive spherical pendulum in a two-dimensional plane is then obtained based on the amplitude-modulated signals, thus acquiring the crustal deformation data. No cross-
coupling effect occurs between the two amplitude-modulated signals, thereby improving the measurement accuracy of the crustal data. The symmetrical structure enhances the stability of long-term observations. Therefore, this design avoids cross-
coupling effects and achieves high measurement accuracy of the crustal data.
