Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of storage, and particularly relates to a core sample storage device for geological exploration. Background Art

[0002] Core is a columnar rock specimen obtained from a formation using a tubular component during geological exploration. Currently, when taking core samples, the cores are usually stacked together in a core box. Since the types, strengths, and sizes of the cores are different, during transportation, the cores will inevitably collide and squeeze against each other, resulting in sample failure and causing a huge impact on geological and mineral exploration tests.

[0003] The current core sample storage device does not have the function of slowly feeding the cores during placement. Usually, workers reach into the box to place the cores by hand, or directly place them from the top of the box. This placement method will cause the cores to stack and squeeze together. In addition, directly placing the cores from a high place will also cause the cores to break. Therefore, it is urgent to redesign a core sample storage device for geological exploration to solve the problems raised in the background art. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the deficiencies existing in the prior art and to propose a core sample storage device for geological exploration.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] A core sample storage device for geological exploration, comprising:

[0007] A storage box;

[0008] Placement grooves, there are multiple placement grooves, and the multiple placement grooves are evenly distributed at equal intervals on both sides of the top of the storage box. A plurality of core limiting mechanisms are evenly distributed at equal intervals on a pair of symmetric sides inside each placement groove, and the core limiting mechanisms on both sides inside the placement groove are symmetrically arranged;

[0009] When the core is being fed, when the two round rollers at the same height of the core do not contact each other, the lower strip-shaped baffle is located below the core. Therefore, the strip-shaped baffle will not hinder the fall of the core during placement;

[0010] The core limiting mechanism includes: a groove, which is opened inside the placement groove, and a round roller is horizontally arranged inside the groove. Both ends of the round roller are rotatably installed with connecting plates, and the same connecting plate is fixedly connected between the two connecting plates. A connection limiting mechanism for limiting the connecting plate is provided on a pair of symmetric sides of the groove, and a strip-shaped notch is also provided on the side of the placement groove and is located below the groove. A strip-shaped baffle is slidably installed inside the strip-shaped notch, and a connection mechanism for connecting the strip-shaped baffle is provided on a pair of symmetric sides of the connecting plate.

[0011] Through the setting of the core limiting mechanism, it is used to steadily feed the core step by step during the core blanking process, ensuring the stability of the blanking. In addition, through the setting of the sealing strip, the conditions for core storage are ensured.

[0012] As a further technical solution of the present invention, a box cover is hinged to the top of the storage box, and side covers are hinged to both symmetrical sides of the storage box. A rubber pad is installed at the bottom of the storage box.

[0013] As a further technical solution of the present invention, the connecting mechanism includes: a first movable rod and a second L-shaped plate. The first movable rod is rotatably installed at one end of the connecting plate away from the round roller, and a first L-shaped plate is rotatably installed at the other end of the first movable rod.

[0014] As a further technical solution of the present invention, a rectangular groove is opened at the bottom of the groove, and the rectangular groove communicates with the strip-shaped notch.

[0015] As a further technical solution of the present invention, the end of the horizontal side of the second L-shaped plate is fixedly installed at one end of the strip-shaped baffle. The vertical side of the second L-shaped plate passes through the strip-shaped notch, and a second movable rod is rotatably installed at one side of the top end of the vertical side of the second L-shaped plate. The other end of the second movable rod is rotatably installed at the end of the horizontal side of the first L-shaped plate.

[0016] As a further technical solution of the present invention, a vertical groove is vertically opened on one side inside the groove, and a sliding plate is slidably installed inside the vertical groove. One side of the sliding plate is fixedly installed on one side of the vertical side of the first L-shaped plate.

[0017] As a further technical solution of the present invention, the connection limiting mechanism includes: a chute and a spring. The chute is horizontally opened on one side inside the groove, and a slider is slidably installed inside the chute. One end of the slider is fixedly installed on one side of the connecting plate.

[0018] As a further technical solution of the present invention, the spring is horizontally arranged inside the chute, and both ends of the spring are respectively fixedly installed at one end inside the chute and one end of the slider.

[0019] As a further technical solution of the present invention, sealing sleeves are installed on the sides of the box cover and the side covers, and each sealing strip is connected end to end.

[0020] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0021] 1. In the present invention, through the settings of the circular rollers and the connection and limiting mechanism, the core can be gradually discharged slowly during storage, thus ensuring the storage effect of the core. First, open the box cover and horizontally place the core inside the placement groove. Then the core will be located between two circular rollers at the same height. Due to the gravity of the core, the core will squeeze the two circular rollers, causing the two circular rollers at the same height to move (away from each other). The movement of the circular rollers will drive the movement of the connecting plate, the movement of the connecting plate will drive the movement of the slider, and the movement of the slider will cause the spring to generate elastic force. When the core drops below the two circular rollers, the elastic force generated by the spring will also cause the two circular rollers to reset. By repeating this process, the core can be discharged step by step stably, which is convenient for storing and placing the core. Moreover, it is not placed from a high place or directly inserted into the storage box, improving the placement effect.

[0022] 2. In the present invention, through the settings of the strip-shaped baffle and the connection mechanism, not only can the core be limited after placement, but also the core can be prevented from piling up and squeezing together during placement. When the first core falls to the lowest layer, the second placed core will fall above the first core (the two cores do not touch). When the core squeezes the two circular rollers, the connecting plate will move and drive the connecting rod, the movement of the connecting rod will drive the movement of the first movable rod, the movement of the first movable rod will drive the movement of the first L-shaped plate, the movement of the first L-shaped plate will drive the movement of the second movable rod, the movement of the second movable rod will drive the movement of the second L-shaped plate, and the movement of the second L-shaped plate will drive the movement of the strip-shaped baffle (the strip-shaped baffle is wide enough not to move out of the strip-shaped notch). Then the strip-shaped baffle will contact the side of the first core and prevent the strip-shaped baffle from moving further, further preventing the second core from falling. Thus, only one circular roller will be between the two circular rollers at the same height. By repeating this process, the core can be placed, and the two strip-shaped baffles will limit the core, thereby ensuring the stability of the core placement. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Specific embodiments

[0031] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0032] It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. Next, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings and in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0033] Refer to Figures 1-4 , a core sample storage device for geological exploration, including: a storage box 1 and a placement groove 4. There are multiple placement grooves 4, and the multiple placement grooves 4 are evenly distributed at equal intervals on both sides of the top of the storage box 1. A plurality of core limiting mechanisms are evenly distributed at equal intervals on a pair of symmetrical sides inside each placement groove 4, and the core limiting mechanisms on both sides inside the placement groove 4 are symmetrically arranged. It should be noted that when the core is being fed, when the two round rollers 6 at the same height of the core do not touch, the lower strip-shaped baffle 7 is located below the core. Therefore, the strip-shaped baffle 7 will not hinder the falling of the core during placement.

[0034] Refer to Figures 1-7, in a preferred embodiment, the core limiting mechanism includes: a groove 9, which is opened inside the placement groove 4, and a round roller 6 is horizontally arranged inside the groove 9. Connecting plates 8 are rotatably installed at both ends of the round roller 6, and the same connecting plate 21 is fixedly connected between the two connecting plates 8. Connecting and limiting mechanisms for limiting the connecting plates 8 are provided on a pair of symmetric sides of the groove 9. Through the arrangement of the connecting plates 8 and the connecting plate 21, the round roller 6 is limited. A strip-shaped notch 17 is also provided on the side of the placement groove 4 and is located below the groove 9. A strip-shaped baffle 7 is slidably installed inside the strip-shaped notch 17, and connecting mechanisms for connecting the strip-shaped baffle 7 are provided on a pair of symmetric sides of the connecting plate 21. A box cover 2 is hinged to the top of the storage box 1, and side covers 3 are hinged to a pair of symmetric sides of the storage box 1. Grooves 23 are opened at both ends of each round roller 6, and locking devices are installed on both the box cover 2 and the side covers 3. The locking devices are mature existing technologies, and no improvements are made to them in this document. Therefore, this document will not elaborate on them. A rubber pad 24 is installed at the bottom of the storage box 1, and sealing sleeves are installed on the sides of the box cover 2 and the side covers 3, and each sealing strip 22 is connected end to end. Through the setting of the core limiting mechanism, it is used to steadily and gradually feed the core during core feeding, ensuring the stability of feeding. Additionally, through the setting of the sealing strip 22, the conditions for core storage are ensured.

[0035] Referring to Figures 2-6 , in a preferred embodiment, the connecting mechanism includes: a first movable rod 11 and a second L-shaped plate 14. The first movable rod 11 is rotatably installed at the end of the connecting plate 21 away from the round roller 6, and the other end of the first movable rod 11 is rotatably installed with a first L-shaped plate 12. A rectangular groove 18 is opened at the bottom of the groove 9. Through the setting of the rectangular groove 18, it is used to enable the connecting plate 21 and the strip-shaped baffle 7 to be smoothly connected, and the rectangular groove 18 communicates with the strip-shaped notch 17. The end of the horizontal side of the second L-shaped plate 14 is fixedly installed at one end of the strip-shaped baffle 7, and the vertical side of the second L-shaped plate 14 passes through the strip-shaped notch 17. The top side of the vertical side of the second L-shaped plate 14 is rotatably installed with a second movable rod 13, and the other end of the second movable rod 13 is rotatably installed at the end of the horizontal side of the first L-shaped plate 12. A vertical groove 16 is vertically opened on one side inside the groove 9, and a slide plate 15 is slidably installed inside the vertical groove 16. One side of the slide plate 15 is fixedly installed on one side of the vertical side of the first L-shaped plate 12. Through the setting of the connecting mechanism, when the round roller 6 moves, the strip-shaped baffle 7 can move synchronously and in the opposite direction, which is convenient for limiting the core and can also prevent the upper round roller 6 from moving. Its main function is to connect the connecting plate 21 and the strip-shaped baffle 7. Through the setting of the vertical groove 16 and the slide plate 15, the first L-shaped plate 12 is limited, ensuring the movement stability of the first L-shaped plate 12.

[0036] Referring to Figure 3 and Figure 6, in a preferred embodiment, the connection limiting mechanism includes a chute 19 and a spring 20. The chute 19 is horizontally opened on one side inside the groove 9, and a slider 10 is slidably installed inside the chute 19. One end of the slider 10 is fixedly installed on one side of the connecting plate 8. The spring 20 is horizontally arranged inside the chute 19, and both ends of the spring 20 are fixedly installed at one end inside the chute 19 and one end of the slider 10 respectively. Through the setting of the connection limiting mechanism, it is used to limit the connecting plate 8 and the round roller 6, ensuring the stability of the moving path of the round roller 6. And through the setting of the spring 20, it is used to enable the round roller 6 to reset.

[0037] From the above description, it can be seen that the above embodiments of the present invention achieve the following technical effects: First, open the box cover 2 and horizontally place the core inside the placement groove 4. Then the core will be located between two round rollers 6 at the same height. Due to the gravity of the core, the core will squeeze the two round rollers 6, causing the two round rollers 6 at the same height to move (away from each other). The movement of the round roller 6 will drive the movement of the connecting plate 8, the movement of the connecting plate 8 will drive the movement of the slider 10, and the movement of the slider 10 will cause the spring 20 to generate elastic force. When the core falls below the two round rollers 6, the elastic force generated by the spring 20 will also cause the two round rollers 6 to reset. By repeating this process, the core can be fed step by step stably, thus facilitating the storage and placement of the core. And it is not placed from a high place or directly inserted into the storage box 1. When the first core falls to the bottom layer, the second placed core will fall on top of the first core (the two cores do not touch). When the core squeezes the two round rollers 6, it will cause the connecting plate 8 to move and drive the connecting plate 21. The movement of the connecting plate 21 will drive the movement of the first movable rod 11, the movement of the first movable rod 11 will drive the movement of the first L-shaped plate 12, the movement of the first L-shaped plate 12 will drive the movement of the second movable rod 13, the movement of the second movable rod 13 will drive the movement of the second L-shaped plate 14, and the movement of the second L-shaped plate 14 will drive the movement of the strip-shaped baffle 7 (the strip-shaped baffle 7 is wide enough not to move out of the strip-shaped notch 17, which is used to limit the strip-shaped baffle 7). Then the strip-shaped baffle 7 will contact the side of the first core and prevent the strip-shaped baffle 7 from continuing to move, further preventing the second core from falling. Thus, there will be only one round roller 6 between the two round rollers 6 at the same height. By repeating this process, the core can be placed, and the two strip-shaped baffles 7 will limit the core, thereby ensuring the stability of the core placement. When the core needs to be taken out, just open the side cover 3 to draw out the core for use, which is convenient and fast.

[0038] For those skilled in the art, it is obvious that the present invention is not limited to the details of the above-described exemplary embodiments, and the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic characteristics of the present invention. Therefore, in any aspect, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-limiting. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description. Therefore, all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims are intended to be embraced within the present invention.
