Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of soil sampling technology, specifically referring to an automated whole-segment sampling device for saline-alkali soil testing. Background Technology
[0002] As a widely distributed soil type, saline-alkali soil directly affects crop growth, ecological environment stability, and sustainable land resource utilization due to its physicochemical properties such as salt content and pH. Therefore, accurate detection of various indicators of saline-alkali soil is a key prerequisite for carrying out soil improvement, agricultural production planning, and ecological restoration. Soil sampling is the basic step in the testing work. It is required that the obtained samples maintain the integrity of the whole section, the stratification structure is not damaged, and the salt loss or external pollution during the sampling process can be effectively avoided to ensure the authenticity and reliability of the test results.
[0003] Traditional manual sampling methods mostly involve using simple tools such as shovels or soil drills to obtain soil samples. This method is labor-intensive, inefficient, and makes it difficult to obtain whole soil samples. During the sampling process, the soil is easily loosened and broken, damaging the original stratification structure. Although some semi-automatic sampling devices can achieve mechanized whole soil sample acquisition, they still require manual knocking and other cumbersome methods to remove the sample from the drill barrel due to friction and other factors. This process can easily lead to sample breakage and fragmentation, making it impossible to obtain a complete sample. Direct fragmentation can also cause further breakage of the sample, affecting subsequent testing. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides an automated whole-segment sampling device for saline-alkali soil testing, which effectively solves the above problems.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by this invention is as follows: This invention proposes an automated whole-segment sampling device for saline-alkali soil testing, including a sampling frame, a lifting component, an automatic sampling component, and a linkage collection component. The lifting component is set on the sampling frame and connected to the automatic sampling component. The automatic sampling component includes a sampling drill tube, inside which a semi-enclosing component and an auxiliary export component are retractably arranged. The semi-enclosing component cooperates with the sampling drill tube to enclose the drilled soil sample and disperse the soil friction force. The auxiliary export component is retractably arranged inside the semi-enclosing component and is used to cooperate with the semi-enclosing component to export the soil sample. The linkage collection component is movably arranged below the automatic sampling component. The linkage collection component includes a sample collection tube and a receiving component. The receiving component is elastically lifted and arranged inside the sample collection tube. The receiving component includes a support plate and a self-locking lifting component, which is arranged on both sides of the support plate.
[0006] Furthermore, the lifting components are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the sampling frame. The lifting components include a lifting motor, a lead screw, and a lifting mounting plate. The lifting motor is bolted to one side of the sampling frame. The lead screw is rotatably mounted on the sampling frame. One end of the lead screw passes through the sampling frame and is connected to the output end of the lifting motor, while the other end is rotatably connected to the base. The base is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the sampling frame. The lifting mounting plate is located between the two sets of lifting components. Both ends of the lifting mounting plate are threadedly connected to the lead screws on both sides.
[0007] Furthermore, the automatic sampling assembly also includes a drive motor and a drive shaft. The drive motor is bolted to the center of the lifting mounting plate. One end of the drive shaft is connected to the output end of the drive motor, and the other end is fixedly connected to the top of the sampling drill barrel. The inner wall of the sampling drill barrel is provided with multiple movable grooves. The semi-enclosed assembly includes a top plate, a fixed support plate, and a movable support plate. The top plate is movably disposed inside the sampling drill barrel. The fixed support plate is fixedly disposed around the top plate. The movable support plate is rotatably connected to the bottom of the fixed support plate. Both the fixed support plate and the movable support plate are movably disposed in the movable grooves. The two fixed support plates arranged opposite each other are rotatably connected with a linkage gear. One side of the linkage gear meshes with a recessed rack, and the other side is connected to the auxiliary discharge assembly. The recessed rack is fixedly disposed on the inner wall of the sampling drill barrel.
[0008] Furthermore, the auxiliary export component includes an export push plate, a rack rod, a support push plate, and movable buckles. The export push plate is movably positioned below the top plate. The rack rod is symmetrically positioned on both sides of the export push plate. One side of the rack rod meshes with a linkage gear. One end of the rack rod is fixedly connected to one side of the export push plate, and its other end passes through the top plate and the sampling drill barrel in sequence and is fixedly connected to the support push plate. The support push plate is positioned above the sampling drill barrel, and its middle part is movably penetrated by the drive shaft. Movable buckles are symmetrically positioned at both ends of the top of the support push plate. The symmetrically positioned movable buckles are C-shaped structures with openings facing both sides. The movable buckles are slidably engaged with a circular guide rail. The circular guide rail is arranged around the drive shaft. Connecting plates are fixedly connected to both sides of the circular guide rail. Both connecting plates are connected to the first electric push rod. The first electric push rod is symmetrically positioned on both sides of the drive motor and fixedly mounted on the lifting mounting plate.
[0009] Furthermore, multiple support plates are arranged around the top of the sample collection tube, and each support plate is provided with a docking slot. When the soil sample is introduced into the sample collection tube, the support plates and docking slots can be seamlessly connected with the fixed support plate and the movable support plate.
[0010] Furthermore, a support spring is installed inside the sample collection cylinder. The bottom of the support spring is fixedly connected to the inner bottom of the sample collection cylinder, and its top is connected to the support plate. A limit plate and a sliding collar are installed on the support plate. The limit plate is arranged around the support plate, and the sliding collar is sleeved on the outside of the limit plate and fixedly connected to the limit plate. A limit groove is opened between two adjacent limit plates. The support plate slides through the limit groove. The limit plate slides with the docking groove. The limit plate and the support plate are distributed circumferentially. The sliding collar is sleeved on the outside of the surrounding support plate and slides with the support plate to realize the smooth lifting and lowering of the support plate.
[0011] Furthermore, the two opposing support plates have one-way locking teeth on their outer sides. The self-locking lifting assembly engages with the one-way locking teeth. The self-locking lifting assembly includes a lifting handle, a lifting module, and a self-locking module. The self-locking module is fixedly mounted on both sides of the sliding collar. The internal space of the self-locking module is divided into a first movable cavity and a second movable cavity by a partition. The end of the first movable cavity near the one-way locking teeth is open. The first locking teeth are retractably mounted inside the first movable cavity. Two symmetrically arranged guide rods movably pass through the partition. One end of each guide rod is connected to the first locking teeth. A reset mechanism is provided inside the first movable cavity. A spring and a return spring are sleeved on the guide rod. A second locking tooth is provided in the second movable cavity. A push plate is fixedly connected to one side of the second locking tooth. Both ends of the push plate are fixedly connected to the other end of the guide rod. The lifting module is movably disposed on the surface of the self-locking module. A lifting guide rod is connected to the bottom of the lifting module. The lifting guide rod movably passes through the top of the lifting module and extends into the second movable cavity. A lifting plate is provided in the second movable cavity. The top of one end of the lifting plate is fixedly connected to the lifting guide rod. A roller is connected to the other end of the lifting plate. The roller is rotatably connected to the second locking tooth. One end of the lifting handle is rotatably connected to the lifting module.
[0012] Furthermore, both the first and second locking teeth are unidirectional locking teeth with a right-angled triangle cross-section, and the first locking tooth cooperates with the unidirectional locking tooth to achieve unidirectional locking.
[0013] Furthermore, a drilling opening is provided on the base below the sampling drill cylinder, and a movable base is slidably provided on the surface of the base. The movable base can cover the drilling opening, and the sample collection cylinder is detachably mounted on the movable base. One end of the movable base is connected to the output end of the second electric push rod, and the second electric push rod is fixedly mounted on the base.
[0014] The beneficial effects achieved by the present invention using the above structure are as follows:
[0015] By combining the lifting component with the automatic sampling component, the entire soil sampling process is automated. The linkage collection component, through the cooperation of the moving base and the second electric push rod, automatically moves to the sampling position for sample transfer, reducing manual intervention throughout the process, effectively reducing labor intensity and improving sampling automation.
[0016] The semi-enclosed component of the automatic sampling assembly uses a fixed support plate and a movable support plate to surround and drill the soil through the sampling drill tube. This disperses the friction between the soil and the inner wall of the drill tube, preventing the soil from becoming loose and broken during sampling and extraction. After sampling, the auxiliary extraction component and the semi-enclosed component work together to ensure that the extraction push plate of the auxiliary extraction component smoothly extracts the soil sample from the sampling drill tube. The semi-enclosed component, through the fixed support plate and the movable support plate, disperses the friction between the inner wall of the sampling drill tube and the soil sample, making it easier to remove the soil sample completely from the sampling drill tube without manual knocking. This effectively avoids breakage and fragmentation, fully preserving the original stratification structure and physicochemical properties of the soil, providing a foundation for accurate testing.
[0017] The support plate and docking slot of the sample collection tube can be seamlessly connected with the fixed support plate and movable support plate of the semi-enclosed component to form a stable sample transfer channel. At the same time, as the movable support plate descends and completely detaches from the sampling drill tube, the rotational connection with the fixed support plate releases the enclosed soil sample, further reducing the friction on the soil sample and facilitating its smooth export. The receiving component uses support springs and sliding collars to achieve smooth lifting and lowering of the support plate, buffering the impact of sample falling and preventing sample collision and damage. The spacing of the limiting plate and support plate further fixes the sample position, preventing sample displacement or breakage during collection and ensuring the integrity of the sample from export to collection.
[0018] The self-locking lifting component of the linkage collection assembly engages with the unidirectional locking teeth of the support plate through the first locking tooth, enabling the support plate to lift and lock in place in one direction. After sample collection, the sample can be quickly fixed in position, preventing the sample from shaking or loosening during transportation or transfer. At the same time, the self-locking lifting component can be separated from the support plate by pulling the handle, allowing the entire receiving assembly to be lifted out of the sample collection cylinder, thus achieving rapid acquisition of the final sample. The operation is convenient and effectively ensures the integrity of the soil sample. Attached Figure Description

[0039] In one embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of support plates 29 are arranged around the top perimeter of the sample collection tube 31, and a docking groove 30 is provided between each support plate 29. When the soil sample is introduced into the sample collection tube 31, the support plates 29 and the docking grooves 30 can be seamlessly docked with the fixed support plate 24 and the movable support plate 25.
[0040] In one embodiment of the present invention, a support spring 34 is provided inside the sample collection cylinder 31.

[0043] In one embodiment of the present invention, a drilling opening 14 is provided on the base 13 below the sampling drill cylinder 7, and a movable base 12 is slidably disposed on the surface of the base 13. The movable base 12 can cover the drilling opening 14. The sample collection cylinder 31 is detachably disposed on the movable base 12. One end of the movable base 12 is connected to the output end of the second electric push rod 11, and the second electric push rod 11 is fixedly disposed on the base 13.
[0044] Working Principle: When using the automated whole-section sampling device for saline-alkali soil testing according to the present invention, the operator first moves the device to the predetermined sampling point and places it securely. Then, the lifting motor 8 of the lifting assembly 2 is activated via the controller, driving the lead screw 10 to rotate, causing the lifting mounting plate 9 and the automatic sampling assembly 3 on it to descend as a whole. Simultaneously, the drive motor 5 is activated to rotate the sampling drill cylinder 7, cutting into the soil for whole-section sampling. During the drilling process, the fixed support plate 24 and the movable support plate 25 of the semi-enclosed assembly 22, located inside the sampling drill cylinder 7, always move along with it, jointly surrounding and supporting the soil sample, effectively dispersing the friction between the sample and the inner wall of the drill cylinder, protecting the original stratification structure of the soil from damage from the beginning of sampling.
[0045] After soil samples are collected at the predetermined depth, personnel use a controller to raise the lifting assembly 2, causing the automatic sampling assembly 3, which has acquired the soil sample, to reach a designated height to await docking with the linkage collection assembly 4.
[0046] After the lifting mounting plate 9 rises to the predetermined height, relevant personnel activate the symmetrically arranged first electric push rod 15 through the controller. The first electric push rod 15 pushes the circular guide rail 17 downward through the connecting plate 16, causing the movable buckle 19 and the support push plate 18, which are slidably engaged with it, to press down simultaneously. At this time, the downward pressure of the support push plate 18 directly pushes the rack rod 20 and the guide push plate 21, which are fixedly connected to it, to move downward. At the same time, the downward movement of the rack rod 20 drives the linkage gear 28 to rotate and mesh with the recessed rack 27, thereby causing the fixed support plate 24 and the movable support plate 25 in the semi-enclosed assembly 22 to descend. Meanwhile, the guide push plate 21 continues to press down steadily, smoothly pushing the soil sample out of the sampling drill 7. During this process, the semi-enclosed assembly 22 always plays a key role in dispersing friction, ensuring that the sample is pushed out intact and undamaged, completely avoiding the risk of sample breakage caused by traditional manual knocking.
[0047] As the automatic sampling component 3 is raised and prepared to export the soil sample, the linkage collection component 4 begins operation. Personnel activate the second electric push rod 11 via the controller, automatically moving the movable base 12 and its sample collection cylinder 31 to the drilling opening 14 directly below the sampling drill cylinder 7, ready to receive the sample. When the sample is pushed out by the export push plate 21, the movable support plate 25 and the fixed support plate 24 extend sequentially and align with the docking slot 30 on the sample collection cylinder 31, achieving seamless connection and forming a stable sample transport path. After the soil sample falls into the sample collection cylinder 31, it presses down on the internal support plate 35. The support plate 35 descends smoothly under the buffering action of the support spring 34, effectively cushioning the fall and preventing sample breakage. As the support plate 35 descends, the self-locking lifting components 39 located on both sides of it begin to work. The first locking tooth 50 of the component engages with the one-way locking tooth 33 on the outside of the support plate 29 under the action of the return spring 49, realizing one-way self-locking and effectively preventing the sample from shaking and loosening due to the rebound of the support plate 35 during subsequent movement.
[0048] During the descent of the semi-enclosed component 22, as the movable support plate 25 completely detaches from the sampling drill tube 7, its rotational connection with the fixed support plate 24 allows the soil sample in the enclosed portion to be released when it is completely detached, thereby reducing the friction on the soil sample and allowing the soil sample to be more smoothly introduced from the sampling drill tube 7 into the sample collection tube 31 along with the export push plate 21.
[0049] Finally, the operator can lift the roller 45 on the lifting plate 44 by pulling the lifting handle 42 upwards, and then lift the roller 45 via the lifting module 40 and the internal lifting guide rod 43. This will cause the roller to roll and squeeze the second locking tooth 46, causing it to separate the first locking tooth 50 from the one-way locking tooth 33 via the guide rod 48. This allows the entire receiving component 32, which carries the intact and undamaged soil sample, to be easily removed from the sample collection tube 31. The entire process is highly automated, greatly reducing the intensity of manual labor and the difficulty of operation, and maximizing the preservation of the integrity and original state of the soil sample.
[0050] In summary, the automated whole-segment sampling device for saline-alkali soil testing of the present invention achieves full automation of soil sampling through the cooperation of the lifting component and the automatic sampling component. The linkage collection component, through the cooperation of the moving base and the second electric push rod, automatically moves to the sampling position for sample transfer, reducing manual intervention throughout the process, effectively reducing labor intensity, and improving sampling automation. The semi-enclosed component of the automatic sampling component, through the cooperation of the fixed support plate and the movable support plate, surrounds the sampling drill cylinder to drill the soil, dispersing the frictional force between the soil and the inner wall of the drill cylinder, avoiding soil loosening and breakage during sampling and extraction. After sampling, through the linkage of the auxiliary extraction component and the semi-enclosed component, the extraction push plate of the auxiliary extraction component smoothly extracts the soil sample from the sampling drill cylinder. The semi-enclosed component, through the fixed support plate and the movable support plate, disperses the frictional force between the inner wall of the sampling drill cylinder and the soil sample, making it easier to remove the soil sample completely from the sampling drill cylinder without manual knocking, effectively avoiding breakage and fragmentation, and completely preserving the original layered structure and physicochemical properties of the soil, providing a basis for accurate detection. The support plate and docking slot of the sample collection tube can be seamlessly connected with the fixed support plate and movable support plate of the semi-enclosed component to form a stable sample transfer channel. At the same time, as the movable support plate descends and completely detaches from the sampling drill tube, the rotational connection with the fixed support plate releases the enclosed soil sample, further reducing the friction on the soil sample and facilitating its smooth export. The receiving component uses support springs and sliding collars to achieve smooth lifting and lowering of the support plate, buffering the impact of sample falling and preventing sample collision and damage. The spacing of the limiting plate and support plate further fixes the sample position, preventing sample displacement or breakage during collection and ensuring the integrity of the sample from export to collection. The self-locking lifting component of the linkage collection assembly engages with the unidirectional locking teeth of the support plate through the first locking tooth, enabling the support plate to lift and lock in place in one direction. After sample collection, the sample can be quickly fixed in position, preventing the sample from shaking or loosening during transportation or transfer. At the same time, the self-locking lifting component can be separated from the support plate by pulling the handle, allowing the entire receiving assembly to be lifted out of the sample collection cylinder, thus achieving rapid acquisition of the final sample. The operation is convenient and effectively ensures the integrity of the soil sample.
