[0016] (III) Beneficial effects

[0017] The present invention provides a sampling device for marine flowing soft soil. It has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. In the present invention, by setting: a square fixed frame, counterweight blocks, a square pointed cone and drain holes, connecting the steel wire rope connecting pipe to the connecting shaft, the square fixed frame in the sampling device can be placed in the ocean. Subsequently, due to the action of the counterweight blocks, the square fixed frame can quickly sink to the bottom of the sea, and the square pointed cone can be inserted into the soft sand, which can increase the firmness. When the square fixed frame sinks under the sea, the drain holes can discharge water upwards. Through this structure, the sampling square fixed frame can be used conveniently.

Detailed implementation mode

[0028] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention 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. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without making creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] Embodiment:

[0030] Such as Figures 1-6As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present invention provides a sampling device for marine flowing soft soil, including: a square fixed frame 1, a hydraulic cylinder 4, and a sampling cylinder 5. Hydraulic cylinders 4 are fixedly connected to both sides inside the square fixed frame 1. When the hydraulic cylinders 4 extend hydraulically, the connecting frame 26 will be lowered. After being lowered, the connecting plate 23 can be pressed down. After being pressed down, the sampling cylinder 5 can be lowered. When the sampling cylinder 5 is descending, due to the contact between the structure of the drive motor 8 and the soft soil, the fixed ring 14 will slide upward on the surface of the slide bar 7. After the sampling is completed, the hydraulic cylinder 4 retracts, and the sampling cylinder 5 rises. The extending end of the hydraulic cylinder 4 is fixedly connected to the connecting frame 26. The connecting frame 26 is in the shape of a bent pipe L. Through the structure of the bent pipe L, the sampling cylinder 5 can be retracted inside the square fixed frame 1. One end of the connecting frame 26 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 23. The sampling cylinder 5 is fixedly connected between the connecting plates 23. An internal thread groove 24 is opened at the top end inside the sampling cylinder 5. A disassembly stud 25 is threadedly connected inside the internal thread groove 24. Through the structure of the disassembly stud 25, it is convenient to extract the sampled soft soil. A filter screen 27 is fixedly connected inside the disassembly stud 25. Through the setting of the filter screen 27, the soft soil can be prevented from being discharged. There is water in the sampling cylinder 5. When the soft soil enters the sampling cylinder 5, the sea water will discharge the moisture through the filter screen 27, and the soft soil is retained. The bottom end of the connecting plate 23 is fixedly connected to the slide bar 7. The bottom end of the slide bar 7 is fixedly connected to the pointed cone block 22. A first fixed triangular inclined block 6 is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom end inside the sampling cylinder 5. A second fixed triangular inclined block 9 is fixedly connected to the other side of the bottom end inside the sampling cylinder 5. A rotating shaft is arranged above the second fixed triangular inclined block 9 and is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sampling cylinder 5. A turning plate 11 is rotatably connected to the outside of the rotating shaft. Due to the action of gravity, the turning plate 11 is resisted, and through the action of the tension spring 10 and the volute spring 12, the turning plate 11 can be reset to contact with the first fixed triangular inclined block 6, and the sampled soft soil is retained inside the sampling cylinder 5. The first fixed triangular inclined block 6 and the second fixed triangular inclined block 9 are lowered and inserted into the flowing soft soil. When the soil enters the sampling cylinder 5, due to the turning structure of the turning plate 11, the soil can be smoothly stored inside the sampling cylinder 5. A volute spring 12 is arranged inside the rotating shaft. A corrugated pipe 13 is fixedly connected between the turning plate 11 and the second fixed triangular inclined block 9. Through the corrugated pipe 13, the water source is prevented from eroding the tension spring 10. A tension spring 10 is fixedly connected inside the corrugated pipe 13. The tension spring 10 provides a resetting function;

[0031] There are two fixed rings 14 slidingly fitted on the outside of the sliding rod 7. One side of the fixed ring 14 is fixedly connected to a driving motor 8. After the square pointed cone 16 supports the square fixed frame 1, the driving motor 8 is at the bottom end of the sliding rod 7 due to the action of gravity. The outside of the driving motor 8 is fixedly connected to an electric telescopic rod 15. Through the action of the electric telescopic rod 15, electric telescopic control can be realized, which is convenient for limiting the contact with the middle arc groove of the driving shaft 19. When the electric telescopic rod 15 extends and the driving shaft 19 continues to rotate, when the arc groove and the extended end of the electric telescopic rod 15 are in contact, a limit locking effect is achieved, and the fixed structure of the scraper 21 can be maintained without easily affecting the descent of the sampling cylinder 5. The extended end of the electric telescopic rod 15 is in contact and fitted with the arc opening. The driving end of the driving motor 8 is fixedly connected to a driving shaft 19. The bottom end of the driving shaft 19 is fixedly connected to a scraper 21. After being driven by the driving motor 8, the driving shaft 19 rotates to drive the scraper 21 to rotate. During the rotation process, the floating soil, impurities and sediment at the bottom of the ocean can be cleaned. The middle of the driving shaft 19 is fixedly connected to a limit disc 20. One side of the limit disc 20 is provided with an arc opening. The middle of the top end of the square fixed frame 1 is fixedly connected to a connecting shaft 18. The outside of the connecting shaft 18 is rotationally fitted with a wire rope connecting pipe 3. Through the penetration connection of the wire rope connecting pipe 3 to the wire rope, at the same time, the short circuit line required for power supply is also connected to the equipment in the square fixed frame 1 through the wire rope connecting pipe 3 to achieve power connection and complete the power supply operation. Connecting the wire rope connecting pipe 3 to the connecting shaft 18 can place the square fixed frame 1 in the sampling equipment in the ocean. Both ends of the top of the square fixed frame 1 are fixedly connected to counterweight blocks 2. By adding counterweights with the counterweight blocks 2, it can quickly sink. The bottom end of the square fixed frame 1 is fixedly connected to a square pointed cone 16. Through the action of the counterweight blocks 2, the square fixed frame 1 can be quickly sunk to the bottom of the sea, and the square pointed cone 16 can be inserted into the soft sandy soil to increase firmness. The middle of one side of the square fixed frame 1 is fixedly connected to a camera 17. Through the camera 17 structure, it can be checked whether the descent depth touches the bottom. A number of drain holes 28 are provided in the middle of the top end of the square fixed frame 1. When the square fixed frame 1 sinks under the sea, the drain holes 28 can discharge water upward. It should be noted that the above hydraulic cylinder 4, driving motor 8, electric telescopic rod 15 and camera 17 all need to have a waterproof effect.

[0032] Working principle: During use, first connect the wire rope to the pipeline 3 to connect the connecting shaft 18, so that the square fixing frame 1 in the sampling device can be placed in the ocean. Subsequently, under the action of the counterweight 2, the square fixing frame 1 can quickly sink to the seabed, and the square pointed cone 16 can be inserted into the soft sand and soil, which can increase the firmness. When the square fixing frame 1 sinks underwater, the drain hole 28 can discharge water upward. Subsequently, after the square pointed cone 16 supports the square fixing frame 1, the driving motor 8 is at the bottom of the sliding rod 7 due to gravity. After being driven by the driving motor 8, the driving shaft 19 rotates to drive the scraper 21 to rotate. During the rotation, the floating soil, impurities and sediment at the bottom of the ocean can be cleaned. After the cleaning is completed, the electric telescopic rod 15 extends, and the driving shaft 19 continues to rotate. When the arc groove and the extended end of the electric telescopic rod 15 come into contact, it reaches the limit locking effect, and the fixed structure of the scraper 21 can be maintained and is not likely to affect the descent of the sampling cylinder 5. At this time, the hydraulic cylinder 4 extends hydraulically, and the connecting frame 26 will be lowered. After the lowering, the connecting plate 23 can be pressed down. After the pressing down, the sampling cylinder 5 can be lowered, and the first fixed triangular inclined block 6 and the second fixed triangular inclined block 9 can be lowered and inserted into the flowing soft soil. When the soil enters the inside of the sampling cylinder 5, due to the flipping structure of the flipping plate 11, the soil can be smoothly stored inside the sampling cylinder 5. Since there is water in the sampling cylinder 5, when the soft soil enters the sampling cylinder 5, the sea water will drain the water through the filter screen 27, and the soft soil will be retained. When the sampling cylinder 5 descends, due to the contact between the driving motor 8 structure and the soft soil, the fixed ring 14 will slide upward on the surface of the sliding rod 7. After the sampling is completed, the hydraulic cylinder 4 retracts, and the sampling cylinder 5 rises. Due to the gravity effect, it will contact the flipping plate 11, and through the action of the tension spring 10 and the volute spring 12, the flipping plate 11 can be reset and contact with the first fixed triangular inclined block 6, and the sampled soft soil will be retained inside the sampling cylinder 5.
