Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of geological exploration technology, and in particular to a folding core box. Background Technology

[0002] Core samples are rock samples drilled from underground using coring tools during mineral exploration and development, according to the geologically designed stratigraphic positions and depths. They are the most direct data for determining stratigraphic age, lithology, sedimentary environment, reservoir physicochemical properties, and oil, gas, and water content. Cores are typically stored in specialized core boxes after being retrieved from underground.

[0003] Currently, core boxes specifically designed for storing cores are generally stackable, nestable core boxes. The arrangement of these core boxes is relatively independent for each individual box. When two core boxes are stacked, the bottom of the upper box can be nested into the top of the lower box, allowing multiple core boxes to be stacked vertically. However, when storing large cores, the existing core boxes are not long enough to accommodate them. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present invention aims to provide a modular folding core box that can solve the problem of insufficient storage space in traditional core boxes and the inability to store large-sized cores.

[0005] Therefore, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: a combined folding core box, comprising a core box body with at least one partition, rectangular frames that are slidably connected to each other at the front and rear ends of the core box body, at least two rotating plates that are rotatably connected to the core box body at both ends of the core box body via a rotating shaft, a rotating assembly for rotating the rotating plates is provided on the top of the core box body, the upper end of the rotating shaft passes through the upper wall of the core box body and is connected to the rotating assembly, an installation groove for installing the rotating assembly is provided on the upper surface of the core box body, the rotating assembly is connected to the rectangular frame, and the rotating assembly is driven by the sliding of the rectangular frame on the core box body, thereby realizing the rotation of the rotating plates.

[0006] More preferably, the rotating assembly includes a gear connected to the upper end of the rotating shaft, the gear meshing with a rack, and both the gear and the rack are disposed within a mounting groove. The back-and-forth movement of the rack drives the rotation of the gear, thereby driving the rotation of the rotating plate through the rotating shaft, placing the core into the core box, and opening or closing the core box by rotating the rotating shaft.

[0007] More preferably, the upper side of the rectangular frame is fixed to the rack by inserting a fixing pin into a hole on the rack. By fixing the rack and rectangular frame with the fixing pin, sliding the rectangular frame on the core box body can drive the rotation of the gear, thereby opening or closing the core box.

[0008] A further preferred embodiment includes a limiting groove within the mounting groove to restrict the sliding position of the rack, and a limiting block that slides within the limiting groove is located below the rack. The sliding of the limiting block within the limiting groove restricts the sliding position of the rack, ensuring that the rack does not slip out of the mounting groove.

[0009] A further preferred embodiment is that the inner surface of the rectangular frame is provided with a slider, and the outer surface of the core box body is provided with a groove for the slider to slide. The slider slides within the groove, ensuring smooth movement of the rectangular frame on the core box body.

[0010] A further preferred embodiment includes two matching buckles on the rectangular frames at both ends of the core box body. These buckles connect the rectangular frames of the two core boxes, allowing them to be combined to hold long core samples.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: By setting two matching rectangular frames at the front and back of the core box body, two different core boxes can be connected end to end, increasing the length of the space available for storing cores. This allows for the storage of large-sized cores while ensuring their integrity. When storing cores, the rectangular frames are moved outward to connect the two core boxes end to end, and the rotating plate is opened to connect the storage cavities between the two core boxes, thus connecting the two core boxes together. This makes it easier to store large-sized cores. Attached Figure Description

[0014] The present invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0015] like Figure 1-2 As shown, a modular folding core box includes a core box body 1 with at least one partition. Rectangular frames 6 are slidably connected to the front and rear ends of the core box body 1. At least two rotating plates 2 are provided at both ends of the core box body 1 and are rotatably connected to the core box body 1 via a rotating shaft. A rotating assembly for rotating the rotating plates 2 is provided on the top of the core box body 1. The upper end of the rotating shaft passes through the upper wall of the core box body 1 and is connected to the rotating assembly. An installation groove 3 for installing the rotating assembly is provided on the upper surface of the core box body 1. The rotating assembly is connected to the rectangular frame 6. The rotating assembly is driven by the sliding of the rectangular frame 6 on the core box body 1, thereby realizing the rotation of the rotating plates 2.

[0016] The rotating assembly includes a gear 4 connected to the upper end of the rotating shaft, and the gear 4 meshes with a rack 5. Both the gear 4 and the rack 5 are set in the mounting groove 3. The back-and-forth movement of the rack 5 drives the rotation of the gear 4, which in turn drives the rotating plate 2 to rotate through the rotating shaft, placing the core into the core box. The rotation of the rotating shaft opens or closes the core box.

[0017] The upper side of the rectangular frame 6 is fixed by inserting a fixing pin into the insertion hole 7 on the rack 5, thus fixing the rack 5 and the rectangular frame 6. By inserting the fixing pin into the insertion hole 7 to fix the rack 5 and the rectangular frame 6, sliding the rectangular frame 6 on the core box body 1 can drive the rotation of the gear 4, thereby opening or closing the core box.

[0018] The mounting groove 3 is provided with a limiting groove 8 to restrict the sliding position of the rack 5, and a limiting block (not shown in the figure) is provided below the rack 5 to slide within the limiting groove 8. The sliding position of the rack 5 is restricted by the sliding of the limiting block within the limiting groove 8, ensuring that the rack 5 will not slip off and leave the mounting groove 3.

[0019] The inner surface of the rectangular frame 6 is provided with a slider 9, and the outer surface of the core box body 1 is provided with a groove 10 for the slider 9 to slide. By sliding the slider 9 in the groove 10, the rectangular frame 6 can move smoothly on the core box body 1.

[0020] Two matching buckles 11 are respectively provided on the rectangular frames 6 at both ends of the core box body 1. The rectangular frames 6 on the front and rear core boxes are connected by the buckles 11, and the two core boxes are combined to hold long cores (the buckles 11 are existing technology and will not be described in detail here).

[0021] By setting two matching rectangular frames 6 at the front and back of the core box body 1, two different core boxes can be connected end to end, increasing the length of the space available for storing cores. This allows for the storage of large cores while ensuring their integrity. When storing cores, the rectangular frames 6 are moved outward to connect the two core boxes end to end, and the rotating plate 2 is opened to connect the storage cavities between the two core boxes, thus connecting the two core boxes together. This makes it easier to store large cores.

[0022] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
