[0002] In geological exploration, drilling is a common method for observing the natural state of rock and soil layers and the geological structure of various strata. Drilling involves using a drilling rig to drill holes in the strata to identify and delineate subsurface strata and to collect samples along the borehole depth. This method can obtain deep geological data. After drilling to obtain rock samples, the cylindrical rock samples are usually located inside the drill pipe. These samples need to be removed and secured using clamping devices. However, most rock sampling clamping devices commonly used on the market are directional, which is difficult to meet the needs of specific bedding studies that require sampling from different angles.

[0003] Based on this, the present invention is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] Furthermore, the term "and / or" in this article is merely a description of the relationship between related objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B can represent: A existing alone, A and B existing simultaneously, or B existing alone. Additionally, the character " / " in this article generally indicates that the preceding and following related objects have an "or" relationship.

[0022] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the directional adjustable rock sampling clamping device includes: a machined plane 1, an azimuth rotation ring 2, a rotation locking screw 21, a scale mark 3, a fixing block 4, a mounting plate 41, a screw 42, a first locking screw 43, a pitch angle adjustment block 5, a pitch scale 51, a chuck 6, a second locking screw 61, a chuck claw 7, an adjustment component 8, a clamping screw 9, a slider 10, a T-slot 11, and a plane connecting screw 12.

[0023] The machining surface 1 serves as the support base for the equipment and is made of stainless steel. An azimuth rotation ring 2 is rotatably mounted on the upper surface of the machining surface 1. The two are connected and fixed via an internal gear rotary support bearing, which is a horizontally rotating component capable of 360° horizontal rotation adjustment. To clearly display the rotation angle, a scale 3 is engraved on the azimuth rotation ring 2. A fixed pointer or reference line is positioned on the machining surface 1 corresponding to the scale 3. During rotation, the rotation angle can be visually read by observing the relative scale change between the scale 3 and the fixed pointer or reference line. At least one rotary locking screw 21 is installed on the azimuth rotation ring 2. The rotary locking screw 21 presses against the surface of the machining surface 1, and the friction between the two enables static locking of the azimuth rotation ring 2, ensuring its position is fixed after adjustment to the target angle.

[0024] The upper surface of the azimuth rotation ring 2 is equipped with a vertical rotating component for adjusting the pitch angle, enabling pitch angle adjustment and fixation from 0-90°. Specifically, two fixing blocks 4 are symmetrically mounted on the upper surface of the azimuth rotation ring 2. Mounting plates 41 are mounted on the opposite sides of the two fixing blocks 4, and the mounting plates 41 are connected to the upper surface of the azimuth rotation ring 2 by screws 42. Two pitch angle adjustment blocks 5 are respectively positioned between the two fixing blocks 4. A slot is provided on the opposite side of the two fixing blocks 4, and the pitch angle adjustment block 5 slides into the slot. At least one first locking screw 43 is installed on the pitch angle adjustment block 5. The pitch angle adjustment block 5 also has a pitch scale 51 for observing the specific value of pitch angle changes. The pitch angle adjustment block 5 is semi-circular in shape, with the center of its arc edge coinciding with the rotation axis of the pitch angle adjustment block 5. The slots on the fixing blocks 4 are concentric arc-shaped, matching the arc edge of the pitch angle adjustment block 5. Two pitch angle adjustment blocks 5 are fitted with chucks 6 at their top ends. The chucks 6 connect the two pitch angle adjustment blocks 5 into a single component, ensuring that the two pitch angle adjustment blocks 5 can slide synchronously in the grooves of the two fixed blocks 4. Initially, the screws 42 and the first locking screw 43 are loose, and the pitch angle adjustment blocks 5, azimuth rotation ring 2, and fixed blocks 4 are all in a state of relative sliding. At this time, the pitch angle adjustment blocks 5 can slide in the grooves of the fixed blocks 4 to adjust the pitch angle of the chuck 6. After adjustment, the screws 42 and the first locking screw 43 are tightened, so that the fixed blocks 4 are completely fixed to the upper surface of the azimuth rotation ring 2. At this time, the inner wall of the groove is tightly fitted with the pitch angle adjustment blocks 5. The fixed blocks 4 hold the pitch angle adjustment blocks 5 tightly, and the first locking screw 43 presses against the side wall of the pitch angle adjustment blocks 5, completing the overall locking of the pitch angle adjustment blocks 5.

[0025] In this embodiment, the cylindrical rock sample is located in the space between the two pitch angle adjustment blocks 5. The chuck 6, azimuth rotation ring 2, and processing plane 1 are provided with coaxially arranged through holes to ensure that the cylindrical rock sample can pass through these holes and avoid interference. To clamp and fix the cylindrical rock sample, the upper surface of the chuck 6 is provided with a clamping assembly: specifically, the upper surface of the chuck 6 has three circumferentially circumferentially formed T-slots 11, in which sliders 10 are slidably installed. The sliders 10 are T-shaped and fit into the inner cavity of the T-slots 11 to ensure stable sliding and prevent detachment or displacement. There are three jaws 7, each mounted on the top of one of the three sliders 10. The jaws 7 and sliders 10 are integrally fixed and can move synchronously. The jaws 7 are arc-shaped, and the circles containing the arc surfaces of the three jaws 7 are coaxial with the center hole of the chuck 6. Two second locking screws 61 are installed on the lower surface of the chuck 6. They are threaded and pass through the chuck 6. The tops of the two second locking screws 61 extend to the lower surface of two sliders 10. Before use, the two sliders 10 are slid in advance to determine the position of the two jaws 7. Then, the two second locking screws 61 are rotated to make them press tightly against the sliders 10, so that the sliders 10 are fixed in the T-slots 11, thus completing the fixing of the two jaws 7. An adjusting component 8 is also fixedly installed on the upper surface of the chuck 6. The adjusting component 8 corresponds to the position of the third T-slot 11. A clamping screw 9 is threaded through the adjusting component 8 and is threadedly connected to the adjusting component 8. The end of the clamping screw 9 facing the center of the chuck 6 is rotatably connected to the third jaw 7. Rotating the clamping screw 9 can make it move axially, thereby making the jaw 7 connected to it move synchronously and coaxially. The jaw 7 cooperates with the other two jaws 7 to clamp the cylindrical rock sample. In this process, the mutual limiting cooperation between the slider 10 and the T-slot 11 can prevent the jaw 7 from sliding on its own.

[0026] It is worth noting that a notch is provided on the chuck 6, which connects to the central through hole of the chuck 6. This notch facilitates the loading and unloading of cylindrical rock samples. The aforementioned adjusting element 8 should correspond to a T-slot 11 near the notch. Before use, pre-adjust and lock the other two jaws 7. Then, rotate the clamping screw 9 to move the jaw 7 connected to the clamping screw 9 axially. By using this jaw 7 in conjunction with the other two jaws 7, the rock sample can be clamped. In addition, by using the jaw 7 connected to the clamping screw 9 in conjunction with the inner wall of the chuck 6, the rock sample can also be clamped, which is highly flexible.

[0027] Furthermore, the device proposed in this invention is not limited to standalone use; see references... Figure 3 The directional adjustable rock sampling clamp can be installed in the corresponding position of the rock sampling equipment for coordinated use.

[0028] The specific embodiments described above do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that various modifications, combinations, sub-combinations, and substitutions can be made according to design requirements and other factors. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this invention should be included within the scope of protection of this invention.
