In the mine geological exploration work, accurately obtaining geological samples is crucial for understanding the geological structure, mineral distribution and resource reserves of the mine. By conducting detailed geological exploration of the mining area, we can understand the basic information such as the geological structure, ore body shape, ore grade, etc. of the mine, and provide a scientific basis for mine mining. In the process of geological exploration, one of the important items is geological sampling, which requires studying the mineral components in the geology to provide the necessary technical means and accurate data for the later mining needs.

At this time, the electric hydraulic push rod 8 can drive the sampling drill bit 11 to perform vertical angle sampling. When it is necessary to sample the side wall of the mine tunnel, first unscrew the second positioning bolt 46 and the first positioning bolt 45 from the special-shaped support plate 44, then place the special-shaped support plate 44 in the placement groove, and then flip the fixed vertical plate 42 to deflect it around the U-shaped seat 41, so that the limit shaft 12 moves to the inside of the clamping groove 2, and then rotate the limit bolt 3 to connect it with the threaded through-hole inside the limit shaft 12.

Secondly, the sampling area needs to be monitored in real time during the exploration process, but the monitoring lens of the existing equipment is easily contaminated by dust and mud, resulting in blurred images.
