AI Technical Summary
In the existing seabed sampling technology, sampling boxes are prone to failure in sampling due to ocean currents during sinking or uneven surface of the seabed sedimentary layer.
A sampling device is designed, including a sampling box, a support member and a swing member. The support member can be moved up and down, and the swing member can be flipped to connect to the side of the support member. When the sampling box falls, the swing member is closed to reduce water resistance. When it reaches the sea bottom, the swing member flips and unfolds to provide side support, enhancing the upright stability of the sampling box.
By providing side support, the vertical stability of the sampling box on the surface of the seabed sedimentary layer is enhanced, and the risk of rollover or pouring is reduced, thereby improving sampling success rate and reducing the equipment footprint when not in use.

In addition, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present application, unless otherwise specified, "multiple" means two or more.
[0031] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0032] In the embodiment of the present application, the positive direction of the Z axis is taken as the top, and the negative direction of the Z axis is taken as the bottom.
[0033] See also Figure 1 The sampling box 110 is closed at the top and open at the bottom, and a sampling mechanism is provided in the sampling box 110. The sampling mechanism includes a connecting rod assembly 111 and two sampling buckets 112. The two sampling buckets 112 are symmetrically arranged in the sampling box 110. The connecting rod assembly 111 is arranged on the sampling box 110 and connects the two sampling buckets 112. In a natural state, the two sampling buckets 112 are open and leak out of the bottom opening of the sampling chamber. When sampling, the two sampling buckets 112 can be closed by lifting the connecting rod assembly 111.
[0034] The method for sampling through the sampling box 110 includes the following steps: the sampling box 110 is thrown into the sea through a cable, the sampling box 110 sinks to the seabed under the action of its own weight, the bottoms of the two sampling buckets 112 are inserted into the seabed sediment layer, and the two sampling buckets 112 are driven to close by pulling the connecting rod assembly 111, so that the sediments on the deep seabed can be put into the two sampling buckets 112.
[0035] When sampling through the sampling box 110, some problems may occur, resulting in sampling failure. For example, when the sampling box 110 sinks to the seabed under its own weight, on the one hand, the complex and unpredictable ocean currents may cause the sampling box 110 to roll over, resulting in sampling failure; on the other hand, the sampling surface of the seabed sediment layer is also complex and changeable, which may be a non-flat or non-horizontal surface, making it difficult for the sampling box 110 to stand on the sampling surface, resulting in sampling failure.
[0036] Therefore, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The embodiment of the present application provides a sampling device that can provide side support for the support member 210 and the sampling box 110, enhance the standing stability of the sampling box 110 on the sampling surface of the seabed sediment layer, and prevent the sampling box 110 on the sampling surface from tipping over or falling over, thereby improving the sampling success rate.
[0037] Exemplarily, the sampling device includes a sampling box 110, a support member 210 and a swing member 310. The support member 210 is connected to the sampling box 110 so as to be movable up and down; the swing member 310 is connected to the side of the support member 210 so as to be flippable. The swing member 310 is used to flip toward the supporting surface to unfold when the sampling box 110 moves downward relative to the support member 210, and is used to abut against the supporting surface.
[0038] It can be understood that the support member 210 is connected to the sampling box 110 so as to be movable up and down, so that the sampling box 110 can also move up and down relative to the support member 210 .
[0039] When the sampling box 110 and the support member 210 in the embodiment of the present application fall together in the seawater, the swing member 310 can be close to the side wall of the support member 210 to be retracted, thereby reducing the water resistance of the sampling device and facilitating the lowering of the sampling device; the support member 210 can contact the sampling surface of the seabed sediment layer before the sampling box 110, and then the sampling box 110 moves downward relative to the support member 210, at which time the swing member 310 can be triggered to flip toward the sampling surface of the seabed sediment layer (i.e., the supporting surface) to unfold and abut against the sampling surface of the seabed sediment layer, thereby providing side support for the support member 210 and the sampling box 110, enhancing the standing stability of the sampling box 110 on the sampling surface, and preventing the sampling box 110 on the sampling surface from tipping over or falling over, thereby improving the sampling success rate; when the sampling device is not needed, that is, when the sampling device is not in use, the swing member 310 can also be close to the side wall of the support member 210 to be retracted, thereby reducing the space occupied by the sampling device and facilitating storage.
[0040] Alternatively, see Figure 2 and Figure 4 The support member 210 may be a support frame, and the support frame is hollow so that the sampling box 110 can be placed in the support frame without affecting the sampling of the sampling box 110 placed in the support frame.
[0041] Of course, the support member 210 may also be other support structures such as a support frame, which is not specifically limited here. The following description is made by taking "the support member 210 being a support frame" as an example.
[0042] Optionally, in some embodiments, the sampling device further includes a driving mechanism, which is connected to the sampling box 110 and is connected to the swinging member 310 , and is used to drive the swinging member 310 to flip.
[0043] Optionally, in some embodiments, see Figure 5 and Figure 6The driving mechanism includes a cam groove 410, a sliding shaft 420 and a driven rocking member 430. The cam groove 410 is arranged on the support member 210. The cam groove 410 includes a convex groove section 412 protruding toward the inner side of the support member 210. One end of the driven rocking member 430 is slidably arranged in the cam groove 410 through the sliding shaft 420. The other end of the driven rocking member 430 is connected to the swinging member 310. The driven rocking member 430 is used to rotate when sliding along the cam groove 410 to the convex groove section 412 to drive the swinging member 310 to flip.
[0044] It should be noted that the inner side of the support member 210 refers to Figure 7 The direction opposite to the direction indicated by the arrow, the outer side of the support member 210 is Figure 7 The direction indicated by the arrow.
[0045] Optionally, in other embodiments, the driving mechanism may include a sensor and an electric shaft, wherein the sensor is used to determine whether the sampling box 110 moves downward relative to the support member 210, and the electric shaft is electrically connected to the sensor. If the sensor senses that the sampling box 110 moves downward relative to the support member 210, a signal is sent to the electric shaft, and the electric shaft is started after receiving the signal from the sensor to drive the swing member 310 to flip toward the support surface to unfold, thereby providing side support for the support member 210 and the sampling box 110.
[0046] Optionally, the sensor may be an infrared sensor, which may be installed near the bottom of the support 210 to sense the falling sampling box 110. It is understood that the sensor and the electric shaft may be waterproofed to prevent failure in seawater.
[0047] Of course, the driving mechanism may also be other driving mechanisms that can drive the sampling box 110 to flip toward the support surface to unfold when the sampling box 110 moves downward relative to the support member 210, and no specific limitation is made here.
[0048] Optionally, the driven swing member 430 includes a first end and a second end spaced apart along a length direction perpendicular to the sliding shaft 420, one end of the sliding shaft 420 is slidably disposed in the cam groove 410, the other end of the sliding shaft 420 is connected to the first end, and the second end is connected to the swing member 310.
[0049] Optionally, a connecting shaft 320 is provided on the swing member 310 , and the swing member 310 is connected to the second end of the driven swing member 430 via the connecting shaft 320 .
[0050] Optionally, in some embodiments, see Figure 6 The cam groove 410 further includes a first straight line segment 411 and a second straight line segment 413 , and both ends of the convex groove segment 412 are connected to the first straight line segment 411 and the second straight line segment 413 , respectively.
[0051] Exemplarily, the first straight line segment 411 is located above the second straight line segment 413 , and the first straight line segment 411 and the second straight line segment 413 are colinear, and the convex groove segment 412 is an arc-shaped convex groove segment. The cam groove 410 of this structure can realize a 180° flip of the swing member 310 .
[0052] Of course, the cam groove 410 may also be other shapes, and the flip angle may also be other values, so that the swing member 310 can provide side support for the support member 210 and the sampling box 110 after flipping, and no specific limitation is made here.
[0053] Optionally, in some embodiments, see Figure 2 A through slot 211 is formed on the side of the support member 210 , and the swing member 310 is movably disposed in the through slot 211 , so that the swing member 310 can be accommodated in the support member 210 when it is flipped toward a side away from the support surface.
[0054] Optionally, in some embodiments, see Figure 2 and 7 The sampling device also includes a first connecting member 220, and the supporting member 210 is connected to the sampling box 110 through the first connecting member 220 so as to be movably connected up and down. A plurality of swinging members 310 are provided, and the plurality of swinging members 310 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the first connecting member 220, and the swinging members 310 are connected to the first connecting member 220 in a flippable manner. A plurality of through grooves 211 are provided, and the number of the swinging members 310 and the through grooves 211 are the same and correspond one to one.
[0055] That is to say, the first connecting member 220 is installed on the supporting member 210 so as to be movable up and down. When the sampling box 110 moves up and down relative to the supporting member 210, it can simultaneously drive the swinging member 310 to move up and down and turn over.
[0056] For example, see Figure 3 When the swing member 310 is at the initial position (the upper end of the first straight segment 411), the swing member 310 faces upward and is tilted toward the inner side of the support member 210, that is, the swing member 310 can be accommodated in the support member 210, which can further reduce the water resistance and occupied space of the sampling device. When the sampling box 110 moves downward relative to the support member 210, it can drive the swing member 310 to move downward along the cam groove 410. When the swing member 310 passes through the convex groove section 412 of the cam groove 410, the swing member 310 can flip 180° toward the outside of the support member 210, so that the swing member 310 faces downward and is tilted toward the outer side of the support member 210, so that when the swing member 310 moves downward to the sampling surface, it can provide side support for the support member 210 and the sampling box 110.
[0057] For example, see Figure 2The support member 210 is a rectangular support frame, and three through slots 211 are provided on each side of the support member 210. The three through slots 211 on each side are arranged at intervals in the horizontal direction, and each through slot 211 extends in the vertical direction, and a swing member 310 is provided in each through slot 211. In other words, the swing members 310 are provided on the four sides of the support member 210, and the support member 210 and the sampling box 110 in the support member 210 can be fully prevented from tipping over.
[0058] It is understandable that the specific number of the through slots 211 and the swinging member 310 can be set according to actual needs and is not specifically limited here.
[0059] Optionally, the through slot 211 has two inner side walls 2111 arranged opposite to each other, and the inner side walls 2111 extend in the vertical direction. Optionally, a connecting shaft 320 is arranged on both sides of the swing member 310, and the connecting shafts 320 on both sides are connected to a driving mechanism. Optionally, the cam groove 410 of the driving mechanism is arranged on the outer side of the inner side wall 2111, one end of the sliding shaft 420 is slidably and rotatably connected to the cam groove 410, the other end of the sliding shaft 420 is connected to the first end of the driven swing member 430, and the second end of the driven swing member 430 is connected to the connecting shaft 320. Optionally, the connecting shaft 320 is also rotatably connected to the first connecting member 220, so that the swing member 310 can be flipped and connected to the first connecting member 220.
[0060] Optionally, the first connecting member 220 includes a frame and a plurality of connecting blocks 223 , and the connecting blocks 223 are connected to the frame. Optionally, the number of the connecting blocks 223 is equal to and corresponds to the number of the connecting shafts 320 , and the connecting shafts 320 are rotatably connected to the connecting blocks 223 .
[0061] Optionally, in some embodiments, see Figure 6 and Figure 8 A guide rail 21111 extending in a vertical direction is provided on the inner side wall 2111 of the through groove 211 , and a groove 2231 is provided on the first connecting member 220 , and the first connecting member 220 is slidably connected to the guide rail 21111 through the groove 2231 .
[0062] Optionally, the guide rails 21111 are arranged on the inner side of the inner side wall 2111 relative to the cam groove 410, and the number of the guide rails 21111 is equal to the number of the connecting blocks 223 and corresponds one to one. Figure 8 The groove 2231 is provided on the connecting block 223 , and the connecting block 223 is slidably connected to the corresponding guide rail 21111 through the groove 2231 .
[0063] Optionally, in some embodiments, the sampling box 110 is provided with a second connecting member 120, and the sampling box 110 is detachably connected to the first connecting member 220 via the second connecting member 120. By disassembling the sampling box 110, the support member 210 can be adapted to different sampling boxes 110, thereby achieving versatility.
[0064] Optionally, the sampling box 110 may be integrally formed with the second connecting member 120 , or may be detachably connected to the second connecting member 120 , and no specific limitation is made herein.
[0065] Alternatively, see Figure 7 and Figure 8 , the second connecting member 120 and the first connecting member 220 are detachably connected through a locking structure. Exemplarily, an embedding portion 123 is provided on the second connecting member 120, and optionally, the embedding portion 123 is circular. A locking portion 224 is provided on the first connecting member 220, and the locking portion 224 includes an arc ring 2241 and a base 2244, the arc ring 2241 is provided on the base 2244, and connecting portions 2242 are provided on both sides of the arc ring 2241, and the connecting portion 2242 is connected to the base 2244 through an elastic member 2243. Optionally, the elastic member 2243 can be a spring, rubber or other elastic member, and is not specifically limited here.
[0066] It can be understood that the arc ring 2241 can be opened by compressing the elastic member 2243, so that the embedded part 123 can be embedded in the arc ring 2241, and then the elastic member 2243 is loosened to allow the arc ring 2241 to recover, thereby locking the embedded part 123; the arc ring 2241 can be opened again by compressing the elastic member 2243, and the embedded part 123 can be removed.
[0067] In other words, the embedded portion 123 can be inserted into the arc ring 2241 by pressing downward from the opening of the locking portion 224. The elastic member 2243 is squeezed during the insertion process. After being inserted downward into place, the embedded portion 123 is completely accommodated in the arc ring 2241. At this time, the squeezing force disappears, the elastic member 2243 is reset, and drives the arc ring 2241 to restore its deformation to seal and achieve locking.
[0068] It is understandable that when the weight of the support member 210 is relatively small, the embedded portion 123 and the locking portion 224 will not be disengaged. However, when the external force is relatively large, such as pressing the support member 210 and pulling the sampling box 110 upward with a relatively large force, the embedded portion 123 and the locking portion 224 can be separated, thereby separating the sampling box 110 from the support member 210.
[0069] Exemplarily, the sampling box 110 is in a rectangular parallelepiped shape and has four outer side walls, each of which is provided with a second connecting member 120 .
[0070] Alternatively, see Figure 7 and Figure 8 The second connecting member 120 includes a first vertical plate 121 and a first horizontal plate 122 . The first horizontal plate 122 is connected to the lower end of the first vertical plate 121 . The first vertical plate 121 is connected to the sampling box 110 . A plurality of embedded portions 123 are provided at the bottom of the first horizontal plate 122 .
[0071] Optionally, the frame of the first connecting member 220 includes four frames connected end to end, and the four frames correspond to the four second connecting members 120. Optionally, the frame of the first connecting member 220 includes a second vertical plate 221 and a second horizontal plate 222, the second horizontal plate 222 is connected to the upper end of the second vertical plate 221, the connecting block 223 is connected to the second vertical plate 221, and the second horizontal plate 222 is provided with a plurality of locking portions 224 equal to the number of the embedded portions 123 on the first horizontal plate 122.
[0072] It is understandable that the multiple locking portions 224 correspond to the multiple embedding portions 123. For example, four embedding portions 123 are arranged at intervals on each second connecting member 120, and four locking portions 224 are arranged at intervals on each frame. Of course, the number of locking portions 224 and embedding portions 123 can also be one, two, three or other numbers, which are not specifically described here and can be set according to actual needs.
[0073] Optionally, in some embodiments, one end of the swing member 310 is reversibly connected to the support member 210, and the other end of the swing member 310 is provided with a support leg 330 in an arc-shaped structure. The swing member 310 contacts the sampling surface through the support leg 330, thereby playing a role in straightening and preventing the support member 210 and the sampling box 110 from tipping over or overturning. It can be understood that the support leg 330 is set as an arc-shaped structure, which can effectively prevent the support leg 330 from being embedded in the seabed sediment layer, which is conducive to the recovery of the sampling device.
[0074] Optionally, in some embodiments, the support leg 330 is made of elastic material. Optionally, the support leg 330 can be made of high elastic steel or other high elastic materials, which are not specifically limited here. In this way, the support leg 330 itself can have a certain elasticity. When the sampling box 110 falls to the sampling surface, the support leg 330 will not be broken or damaged due to pressure, but will produce a certain elastic deformation, and can still form a supporting contact with the sampling surface, so that the swing member 310 can still play a supporting and straightening role.
[0075] It is understandable that by adjusting the length of the swing member 310, the support leg 330 and the sampling box 110 can be in contact with the sampling surface at the same time, or the support leg 330 can be in contact with the sampling surface before the sampling box 110. If the support leg 330 is in contact with the sampling surface before the sampling box 110, the swing member 310 can form a side support before the sampling box 110 is in contact with the sampling surface, which can prevent the sampling box 110 from tipping over during the falling process.
[0076] It should be noted that if the support leg 330 contacts the sampling surface before the sampling box 110, since the sampling box 110 and the connecting shaft 320 move downward synchronously, when the support leg 330 has contacted the sampling surface and the sampling box 110 continues to fall, the support leg 330 can undergo elastic deformation to cooperate with the downward movement of the sampling box 110 and the connecting shaft 320.
[0077] Optionally, in some embodiments, see Fig. 9 and Fig.10 The supporting legs include a first supporting leg 331 and a second supporting leg 332 , and the first supporting leg 331 and the second supporting leg 332 are spaced apart in the vertical direction.
[0078] Optionally, the first support leg 331 and the second support leg 332 are both made of elastic material, and the first support leg 331 is located below the second support leg 332. The first support leg 331 and the second support leg 332 can form supporting contact with the sampling surface in stages, which has a relay effect.
[0079] Illustratively, the first leg 331 initially forms a supporting contact with the sampling surface. During operation, the first leg 331 may be deformed due to pressure. When the first leg 331 is deformed to be flush with the second leg 332, the second leg 332 may form a supporting contact with the sampling surface, bear part of the pressure, and reduce the pressure on the first leg 331, thereby preventing the deformation of the first leg 331 from exceeding an acceptable range and causing failure.
[0080] Alternatively, see Figure 4 , the sampling device may further include a support base 500. It is understandable that the sampling box 110 is detachably connected to the first connecting member 220 through the second connecting member 120, and the sampling box 110 needs to be installed on the support member 210 before using the sampling device. Since the first connecting member 220 is located at the upper end of the guide rail 21111 in a natural state, in order to facilitate the installation of the sampling box 110, the support base 500 can be placed in the support frame, and then the sampling box 110 is lifted and placed on the support base 500, so as to connect the sampling box 110 to the support member 210.
[0081] It should be noted that before lowering the sampling device, the support base 500 can also be used to support the sampling box 110. When preparing the sampling device below, the cable can be connected to the sampling box 110 and then lowered. In this way, the sampling box 110 can be located at a high position relative to the support 210. When the support 210 falls to the sampling surface before the sampling box 110, the cable can continue to be lowered. The sampling box 110 can slide downward relative to the support 210 under the action of its own gravity, and at the same time, it can drive the swing member 310 to slide downward and flip 180°, providing side support for the support 210 and the sampling box 110.
