  • Patent number: 12080186
    Abstract: A high-speed remote landslide simulation test device with a variable angle includes a support adjustment component, slide plates, and loose leaves. The device first transmits the operation paths of adjusting the slide plate at different angles to the controller, and the personnel operates the control panel to control the support jack, the motor, and the electromagnet to start and stop through the controller, the output shaft of the motor drives the stainless steel threaded rod to rotate, the controller first energizes one electromagnet and disconnects the other three electromagnets, which can only make the stainless steel threaded rod rotate in a fixed position inside the inner threaded pipe, and the three inner threaded pipes follow the rotation direction of the stainless steel threaded rod, thus, the position of the support jack can be moved separately.
