Underwater foundation leveling device

1. An underwater foundation leveling device, including a support element mounted with a plumb weight used for leveling of a surface of riprap forming a foundation in water, and a plurality of reflectors provided around an upper portion of the support element for measurement of a position of a leveling area, the support element being hoisted with a wire and then being made to fall by its own weight for leveling for the surface of the foundation, the reflectors reflecting light back toward a light receiving unit for a detection of the position of the leveling area, the underwater foundation leveling device comprising,

a protective element that prevents the wire in which slack occurs from hitting the reflectors, and

a light passage located in a position allowing an optical path of the light reflected from the reflectors to travel toward the light receiving unit and wherein

the protective element includes a pair of protective members respectively placed on upper and lower sides of the reflectors,

the light passage is provided between the pair of protective members,

each of the protective members has an outer edge extending outward beyond a circle formed by the plurality of the reflectors continuously arranged adjacent to each other, and

the outer edge is maintained in a relational position where, when the slack wire hits the outer edge, the wire does not collide with the reflectors.

2. An underwater foundation leveling device, including a support element mounted with a plumb weight used for leveling of a surface of riprap forming a foundation in water, and a plurality of reflectors provided around an upper portion of the support element for measurement of a position of a leveling area, the support element being hoisted with a wire and then being made to fall by its own weight for leveling for the surface of the foundation, the reflectors reflecting light back toward a light receiving unit for a detection of the position of the leveling area, the underwater foundation leveling device comprising,

a protective element that prevents the wire in which slack occurs from hitting the reflectors, and

a light passage located in a position allowing an optical path of the light reflected from the reflectors to travel toward the light receiving unit and

wherein the protective element surrounds all the reflectors and the light passage is provided in the protective element.

3. An underwater foundation leveling device, including a support element mounted with a plumb weight used for leveling of a surface of riprap forming a foundation in water, and a plurality of reflectors provided around an upper portion of the support element for measurement of a position of a leveling area, the support element being hoisted with a wire and then being made to fall by its own weight for leveling for the surface of the foundation, the reflectors reflecting light back toward a light receiving unit for a detection of the position of the leveling area, the underwater foundation leveling device comprising,

a protective element that prevents the wire in which slack occurs from hitting the reflectors, and

a light passage located in a position allowing an optical path of the light reflected from the reflectors to travel toward the light receiving unit, wherein

the protective element is provided above the reflectors;

the light passage is located below the protective element;

the protective element has an outer edge located outside of a circle formed by a line connecting the plurality of reflectors mounted on the support element; and

the outer edge of the protective element and the reflectors maintain a positional relationship with each other in which, when a slack wire hits the outer edge, the wire does not collide with the reflectors.

4. The underwater foundation leveling device according to claim 3 , wherein the protective element is formed in a dome shape.

5. The underwater foundation leveling device according to claim 3 wherein the protective element is plate-shaped.
