[0018] See also Figure 1-3 The present invention provides a technical solution: a folding compass bracket for hydrogeological surveying, comprising a protective box 1, a handle 14 is provided on the lower surface of the protective box 1, and a non-slip cover is provided on the surface of the handle 14, a sealing cover is hinged on the upper surface of the protective box 1, and a controller 15 is provided on the front of the protective box 1.
[0019] The lower surface of the protection box 1 is provided with a sponge protection pad 6 and an annular elastic fixing belt 7.
[0020] Slide grooves are provided on the inner walls on both sides of the protective box 1, and the inner walls of the two slide grooves are rotatably connected to the screws 2. The surfaces of the two screws 2 are threadedly connected to the lifting plates 3. The upper surface of the lifting plates 3 is provided with the geological compass body. By arranging the sponge protective pad 6, the annular elastic fixing belt 7 and the handle 14, the geological compass can be fixed on the user's arm through the annular elastic fixing belt 7 during the actual carrying process, and the user's hand can grasp the handle 14 for operation, which provides convenience for the user on the one hand, and can effectively prevent the geological compass body from falling during use on the other hand.
[0021] The geological compass body includes a box body 8 fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the lifting plate 3 , and a box cover 9 is hinged on the upper surface of the box body 8 .
[0022] A positioning block 10 is fixedly mounted on the lower surface of the box cover 9 , and a positioning slot adapted to the positioning block 10 is provided on the upper surface of the box body 8 .
[0023] The inner wall of the positioning slot is provided with a cylindrical hole extending to the right side of the box body 8 , the inner wall of the cylindrical hole is slidably connected to the limiting column 11 , and the surface of the positioning plug 10 is provided with a limiting groove adapted to the limiting column 11 .
[0024] An operating panel 12 is fixedly mounted on the end of the limiting column 11 , and a pressing spring 13 is sleeved on the surface of the limiting column 11 , the two ends of the pressing spring 13 are fixedly connected to the side surface of the operating panel 12 and the right side surface of the box body 8 respectively.
[0025] By arranging the positioning plug 10, the limiting column 11, the operating disk 12 and the tightening spring 13, the geological compass can be used after use by first pulling the operating disk 12 to move the limiting column 11 to the right. After the box cover 9 and the box body 8 are closed, the operating disk 12 is released. At this time, the limiting column 11 can be inserted into the limiting groove on the positioning plug 10 under the action of the tightening spring 13, thereby realizing fast and effective positioning of the box body 8 and the box cover 9, and it is also more convenient to open the box cover 9, avoiding the box cover 9 from loosening during carrying.

At the same time, after use, the bidirectional motor 4 can be started to reverse, thereby driving the geological compass body to retract into the interior of the protective box 1, thereby achieving effective protection of the geological compass body.
[0028] Working principle: During the actual use of the geological compass, the controller 15 can be used to control the rotation of the bidirectional motor 4. The rotation of the bidirectional motor 4 drives the screw 2 to rotate through the bevel gear 5. The rotation of the screw 2 drives the lifting plate 3 to move upward, so that the geological compass body is moved out of the protective box 1 for use, which provides convenience for the operator. At the same time, after use, the bidirectional motor 4 can be started to reverse, thereby driving the geological compass body to retract into the interior of the protective box 1, thereby achieving effective protection for the geological compass body. After use, the geological compass can first be pulled by pulling the operating disk 12 to move the limit column 11 to the right, and wait for the box cover 9 to be separated from the box body. 8 is closed, and the operating disk 12 is released. At this time, the limiting column 11 can be inserted into the limiting groove on the positioning plug 10 under the action of the tightening spring 13, thereby realizing the rapid and effective positioning of the box body 8 and the box cover 9, and it is also more convenient to open the box cover 9, avoiding the loosening of the box cover 9 during the carrying process. At the same time, during the actual carrying process of the geological compass, the protective box 1 can be fixed on the user's arm through the annular elastic fixing belt 7, and the user's hand can grasp the handle 14 for operation, which provides convenience for the user on the one hand, and can effectively avoid the geological compass body from falling during use on the other hand.
