The invention discloses a portable soil body in-situ density tester which comprises five parts, namely power equipment, soil sampling equipment, a bulldozing structure, a weighing instrument and a base; the power equipment is divided into a lifting device and a pressing device; the pressing device adopts a jack mechanism capable of being inverted; the lifting device is of a small gear structure, and the structure comprises five parts of a transmission gear, a transmission rack, a hand-cranking handle, a transmission rack support and a supporting frame. The portable soil body in-situ density tester has the advantages that the in-situ density of the soil body is measured, the test principle is clear, the structure is simple, the test steps are few, the speed for penetrating into a soil layerfor soil sampling and the lifting speed after sampling can be freely controlled, the soil sampling efficiency is high, and the detection time is shortened; the adopted instrument is small in size, does not need an external power supply and is convenient to carry, the average natural density of the taken soil sample is directly measured, and the taken soil sample is pushed out after the test is finished, so that secondary disturbance of the test is avoided, and the accuracy of a density test result is improved.
