A drilling and grabbing shovel compound sampler device for asteroid exploration and its application method

Abstract

The invention discloses a drilling grabbing shovel type combined sampler device for planetoid detection and a use method of the drilling grabbing shovel type combined sampler device. The device comprises a feeding mechanism, a drilling mechanism, a grabbing shovel mechanism and a mounting plate. The use method comprises the following steps of (1) resetting a motor; (2) checking the motor; (3) performing sampling by a grabbing shovel motor; (4) detecting a shovel; (5) rotating a drilling rod to downwards move; (6) checking the drilling rod; (7) lifting the drilling rod; (8) checking the drilling rod; (9) performing sampling; (10) checking a sampling pipe; (11) enabling the drilling mechanism to upwards move; (12) checking a micro switch contact; (13) stopping a feeding motor; (14) checking a sampler; (15) arranging samples; (16) checking the shovel; (17) arranging the samples; (18) checking the sampling pipe; and (19) performing resetting. According to the drilling grabbing shovel type combined sampler device for planetoid detection and the use method of the drilling grabbing shovel type combined sampler device, sample collection can be realized on the surface of a planetoid, and deep sampling can be executed; bedding information of the samples can be kept; the device has the advantages of large sampling amount, various sample types, retention of original appearances of the samples and the like.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of space exploration, and specifically relates to a drilling and grabbing shovel compound sampler device for asteroid exploration and a method for using the same. Background technique

[0002] Asteroids are the material remnants after the formation of the solar system and are also important members of the solar system. They retain the relics of the formation and early evolution of the solar system and reflect the physical environment of its formation process. Therefore, it is the basis for humans to understand the origin, formation and evolution of the solar system important carrier. Moreover, asteroids are rich in metals such as iron, nickel, and copper, and some contain precious metals such as gold and platinum and rare elements. For example, No. 16 Spirit God has a diameter of 250 kilometers and is estimated to contain 500 million tons of iron. , 5000 trillion tons of nickel, and hundreds of millions of ...
