Applications of Inclination Sensors

Inclination sensors can be used to measure the amount of change in inclination with respect to the horizontal plane. The theoretical basis is Newton’s second law. According to basic physical principles, the velocity cannot be measured within a system, but its acceleration can be measured. If the initial velocity is known, the linear velocity can be calculated by integration, and thus the linear displacement can be calculated. So it is actually an acceleration sensor using the principle of inertia.

What are the uses of inclination sensors?

Inclination sensors are used in a variety of applications for measuring angles. For example, high-precision laser instrument leveling, engineering machinery and equipment leveling,long-range distance measuring instrument, high-altitude platform safety protection, directional satellite communication antenna pitch angle measurement, ship navigation attitude measurement, shield top tube application, dam detection, geological equipment tilt monitoring, artillery barrel initial shot angle measurement, radar vehicle platform detection, satellite communication vehicle attitude detection, etc. The following is a brief introduction of the widely used ones.

1. Maritime Geography

Landslide, avalanche a dual-axis tilt sensor, tilt sensor with level sensor for landslide or avalanche monitoring, through the wireless sensing system to transmit data to the central control system, real-time monitoring of the state of the mountain, can effectively reduce the loss of landslides with meters.

2. Construction

High-rise building safety monitoring a skyscraper in the world more and more, in order to monitor the safety performance of the building, you can apply a series of high-precision servo tilt sensors, tilt sensors can sense the small angle changes, can be used for building swing, vibration, tilt and other monitoring.

3. Reservoir Dams

Dam safety monitoring a dam collapse accident has occurred many times, in order to send a timely warning signal to reduce property damage, through the monitoring of the tilt sensor, observation instruments and equipment, and timely access to reflect the dam and bedrock changes in properties and the environment on the role of the dam of a variety of data observation and data processing and other work. The purpose is to analyze and estimate the safety level of the dam in order to take timely measures,

4. Excavation Machinery

Excavator I. In order to achieve three-dimensional spatial positioning of the excavator, on the basis of the installation of the angle sensor of each joint of the working device, and the installation of the platform rotation angle detection device and the platform inclination sensor, and the installation of a laser receiver on the bucket bar for detecting the height of the horizontal organ emitted by the ground laser transmitter relative to the zero position of the receiver. Establish the kinematic model of the excavator, derive the coordinate transformation matrix of the car body relative to the earth, that is, to complete the three-dimensional space of the car body positioning, and get the commonly used simple car body elevation positioning formula to achieve the three-dimensional space positioning of the excavator excavation trajectory to achieve the three-dimensional space trajectory of the excavator accurate and excavator depth control to lay the foundation.

5. Modern Automobile

Automotive four-wheel positioning a With the development and application of electronic technology, the safety, comfort and intelligence of the car is getting higher and higher. The application of car lateral tilt angle sensor is an effective method to prevent the car from tipping accident in driving. It is an important measure to improve the safety of the car, especially off-road vehicles. Double-decker buses and other cars with high center of gravity are more necessary. The essence of car tipping is: the outward tipping moment is greater than the inward stabilizing moment when the height of the center of gravity is certain, the tilting moment oil tipping force (outward lateral force) is determined.
