After the sample falls from the weighing plate to the filter plate, the reel is started to pull the pull rope, and the pull rope will drive the folding pad to contract. At the same time, the pressure roller hinged at one end of the folding pad will move synchronously. At the same time, during the movement of the pressure roller, the driving wheel will rotate under the traction of the elastic belt, so that the pressure roller rotates during the movement and squeezes and crushes the soil sample. At this time, the spring is compressed until the pressure roller moves to contact the limit bar, and the reel can be released to release the pull rope. The spring will drive the pressure roller to reset. Repeat the above steps until the sample is crushed.

[0019] (3) The blower provided in the present invention can blow the crushed sample into the reaction bottle for testing. When the blower is started, the blower will blow the soil sample in the collection box into the guide bin, and then drop it into the reaction bottle through the guide bin. A reference calcium carbonate sample is placed in another reaction bottle, and hydrochloric acid is added to the two reaction bottles through a liquid pump. At the same time, the top cover is rotated to seal the top opening of the reaction bottle. The carbonate content in the soil sample can be calculated by measuring the volume of gas discharged from the gas collecting pipe. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0041] The screening assembly and metering assembly provided in the present invention can pre-treat the soil to be tested. On the one hand, they can remove impurities such as stones and branches in the soil material. On the other hand, they can also perform a preliminary determination of the carbonate content in the soil, thereby saving the operator's experimental time.
