DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0026] The following further describes the present invention with reference to the embodiments.
[0027] The following embodiments are used to illustrate the present invention, but cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present invention. The conditions in the embodiments can be further adjusted according to specific conditions. Any simple improvement of the method of the present invention under the premise of the concept of the present invention belongs to the protection scope required by the present invention.
[0028] Please refer to Figures 1-4, the present invention provides a gravimeter for geophysical exploration, which includes a dust-proof housing 1, a cleaning component 2, a connection component 3, a driving component 4 and a filtering component 5. The dust-proof housing 1 includes an outer housing 11. An air inlet 12 is provided on one side of the outer housing 11, and an air outlet 13 is provided on the other side of the outer housing 11. A filter screen 14 is connected in the air outlet 13. An operation screen 15 and a socket 16 are provided on the front surface of the outer housing 11. A sensor component 17 is provided inside the outer housing 11. By setting the outer housing 11, since the outer housing 11 is made of a high-strength and corrosion-resistant alloy material, the surface of the outer housing 11 is smooth, reducing dust adhesion;
[0029] The cleaning component 2 includes a rotating frame 21, and the rotating frame 21 is rotatably connected inside the outer housing 11. Two first cleaning brushes 22 are connected inside the rotating frame 21, and the two first cleaning brushes 22 are respectively lapped on both sides of the outer housing 11. The rotating frame 21 is connected to two second cleaning brushes 23 and two third cleaning brushes 24;
[0030] The connection component 3 includes an electric push rod 31, and the electric push rod 31 is connected inside the rotating frame 21. The movable end of the electric push rod 31 is connected to a first friction disc 32;
[0031] The driving component 4 includes two fixing frames 41. The bottom ends of the two fixing frames 41 are connected to a motor 42. The output shaft above the motor 42 is connected to a second friction disc 43, and the output shaft below the motor 42 is connected to a fan blade 44;
[0032] The filtering component 5 includes a first filter plate 51 and a second filter plate 52. Both the first filter plate 51 and the second filter plate 52 are connected inside the outer housing 11. The two second cleaning brushes 23 are lapped on the upper surface of the first filter plate 51, and the two third cleaning brushes 24 are lapped on the upper surface of the second filter plate 52.
[0033] The filter screen 14 is set as a HEPA filter screen 14. By setting the filter screen 14, since the filter screen 14 is arranged in the air outlet 13, when the motor 42 drives the fan blade 44 to rotate in reverse, the outside air enters the air inlet 12 under the action of the reverse rotating fan blade 44, and the filter screen 14 can block the dust in the gas entering the air inlet 12;
[0034] The sensor assembly 17 is provided directly below the fan blade 44. The sensor assembly 17 is provided between the air inlet 12 and the air outlet 13. The second friction disc 43 is provided directly below the first friction disc 32. The first filter plate 51 is provided above the second filter plate 52. The bottom of the second filter plate 52 is connected to the two fixing brackets 41. The size of the filter holes in the first filter plate 51 is larger than that of the filter holes in the second filter plate 52. The position of the air inlet 12 corresponds to the position of one of the first cleaning brushes 22. By providing the rotating frame 21 and the first cleaning brush 22, when the gravimeter is no longer in use, push the rotating frame 21, and the rotating frame 21 drives the two first cleaning brushes 22 to block the air inlet 12 and the air outlet, so that external gas is not likely to enter the housing 11 and contaminate the internal sensor assembly 17.
[0035] The position of the air outlet 13 corresponds to the position of the other first cleaning brush 22. By providing the first cleaning brush 22, the second cleaning brush 23 and the third cleaning brush 24, the bristles of the first cleaning brush 22, the second cleaning brush 23 and the third cleaning brush 24 are made of a soft and wear-resistant material.
[0036] Both the first filter plate 51 and the second filter plate 52 are conical. By providing the first filter plate 51 and the second filter plate 52, since both the first filter plate 51 and the second filter plate 52 are conical, the conical first filter plate 51 and second filter plate 52 increase the contact area with the air, improve the gas filtration efficiency of the filter assembly 5, and the gas passing through the first filter plate 51 and the second filter plate 52 can be evenly blown outside the sensor assembly 17.
[0037] The working principle and usage process of the present invention: When the gravimeter needs to be used, push the rotating frame 21, and the rotating frame 21 drives the two first cleaning brushes 22 to be misaligned with the air inlet 12 and the air outlet 13. Control the motor 42 to work. The working motor 42 drives the fan blade 44 and the second friction disc 43 to rotate. The rotating fan blade 44 can extract external gas through the air inlet 12. The extracted gas enters the housing 11 through the air inlet 12, and then sequentially passes through the first filter plate 51 and the second filter plate 52. The first filter plate 51 and the second filter plate 52 can block dust of different sizes in the gas. The purified gas is blown around the sensor assembly 17, so that the heat generated when the sensor assembly 17 is working can be discharged through the air outlet 13, so that the gravimeter is not likely to generate high temperature during the working process, and the gravimeter can work safely.
[0038] When dust needs to be cleaned, control the electric push rod 31 to extend. The extended electric push rod 31 drives the first friction disk 32 to move downward and then contact the second friction disk 43. Control the motor 42 to drive the second friction disk 43 to reverse. The reversed second friction disk 43 drives the rotating frame 21 to rotate through the first friction disk 32 and the electric push rod 31. At the same time, the working motor 42 drives the fan blade 44 to reverse. The reversed rotating frame 21 drives the first cleaning brush 22, the second cleaning brush 23 and the third cleaning brush 24 to rotate. The rotating first cleaning brush 22 can clean the dust attached to the surface of the outer shell 11, and the rotating second cleaning brush 23 brushes off the dust on the surface of the first filter plate 51, and the rotating third cleaning brush 24 brushes off the dust on the surface of the second filter plate 52;
[0039] The airflow generated by the reversed fan blade 44 blows out the dust brushed off the surfaces of the first filter plate 51 and the second filter plate 52 through the air inlet 12, so that the outer shell 11, the first filter plate 51 and the second filter plate 52 can be self-cleaned.
[0040] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
