Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of age rulers, and in particular relates to a portable geological age ruler. Background Art
[0002] A traditional ruler is a tool used to measure length and is also a necessity in life. The geological age is a unit of time used to describe historical events on Earth. It contains two meanings: one is the chronological order of various geological events, which is called the relative geological age; the other is the age of various geological events. Since it mainly uses isotope technology, it is called the isotope geological age. The combination of these two aspects constitutes a complete understanding of geological events and the era of evolution of the Earth and the crust. The geological time scale is established on this basis.
[0003] The existing measuring rulers and geological rulers are separate entities, which are inconvenient to store. In addition, it is not convenient for geological practitioners to carry them when working in the field, and they are easily damaged or missed due to the complex environment, which affects the subsequent measurement work.
[0004] In summary, the utility model provides a portable geological time ruler to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

The two tooth plates are meshed with the gears, so that the gears drive the two tooth plates to be relatively close or relatively far away, thereby driving the two second plates to slide and match in the grooves respectively, which can reduce the length of the measuring ruler and the geological ruler, prepare for the next step of storing them in the shell, so that it is convenient for geological practitioners to carry them. At the same time, the multiple marking components arranged at the lower ends of the front sides of the first plate body and the two second plate bodies in the geological ruler can place the geological times of different centuries in equal proportion according to the time length in the geological ruler, so that geological practitioners can intuitively reflect the geological age information of geological bodies such as minerals and rocks from the geological ruler, effectively improving work efficiency and convenience of use.
[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:
[0007] A portable geological ruler comprises: a shell, wherein an opening is provided in the middle of the upper side of the shell and penetrates the middle of the lower side of the shell, and a measuring ruler and a geological ruler are respectively slidably matched on the upper and lower sides of the opening, and the measuring ruler and the geological ruler both comprise a first plate, a groove provided in the middle of the first plate, a gear rotatably matched in the middle of the groove, two tooth plates slidably matched in the groove, and two second plates respectively fixed to opposite outer ends of the two tooth plates;
[0008] The gear is located between the two tooth plates and meshes with the two tooth plates. The two second plates are respectively slidably fitted in the grooves. The geological ruler and the measuring ruler correspond to each other up and down. A plurality of marking components are installed at the lower ends of the front sides of the first plate and the two second plates in the geological ruler.
[0009] By adopting the above technical scheme, the measuring ruler and the geological ruler are slidably matched on the upper and lower sides of the opening, so that the two can be combined into one, and the measuring ruler and the geological ruler can be switched according to the usage, so that geological practitioners can measure and refer to geological bodies such as minerals and rocks, which is more convenient to use and prevents omissions. The two tooth plates are meshed with the gears, so that the gears drive the two tooth plates to be relatively close or relatively far away, thereby driving the two second plates to slide and match in the grooves respectively, which can reduce the length of the measuring ruler and the geological ruler, prepare for the next step of storing them in the shell, so that it is convenient for geological practitioners to carry them. At the same time, the multiple marking components arranged at the lower ends of the first plate body and the two second plate bodies in the geological ruler can place the geological times of different centuries in equal proportion according to the time length in the geological ruler, so that geological practitioners can intuitively reflect the geological age information of geological bodies such as minerals and rocks from the geological ruler, effectively improving work efficiency and convenience of use.
[0010] The utility model is further configured as follows: the middle parts of the two first plates are rotatably matched with a rotating rod fixed to the two gear shaft parts, and the middle part of the front side of the shell is provided with two corresponding rectangular grooves, and the two rotating rods are respectively slidably matched in the two rectangular grooves.
[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotating rod can be used to drive the gear to rotate, so that the gear engages and rotates with the two tooth plates, thereby driving the two second plates to slide and fit in the groove, preparing for the next step of using or storing the ruler or geological ruler. The two rotating rods are respectively slidably fitted in the two rectangular grooves, so that the ruler or geological ruler with adjusted length can be moved out or put back into the shell, making it convenient for geological practitioners to use or carry it.
[0012] The utility model is further configured as follows: a T-shaped block is fixed in the middle of the inner side of the opening, a sliding column is slidably fitted in the middle of the two opposite ends of the T-shaped block, one end of the two sliding columns opposite to each other up and down is respectively fixed to one end of the two first plate bodies, and the relative outer ends of the two first plate bodies are respectively slidably fitted to the relative inner sides of the opening.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the middle parts of the two opposite ends of the T-shaped block are slidably matched with sliding columns, and the length between the two sliding columns and the T-shaped block can be adjusted according to the position of the ruler and the geological ruler, so that the ruler and the geological ruler can move up and down more smoothly. At the same time, the T-shaped blocks arranged in the middle part of the inner side of the opening can prevent the ruler and the geological ruler from falling when they are completely moved out of the shell, and play a supporting and connecting role for the ruler and the geological ruler.
[0014] The utility model is further configured as follows: the marking assembly includes a concave block fixed to the first plate body and the lower front ends of the two second plates in the geological ruler, an L-shaped block rotatably matched to the lower front ends of the concave blocks, a spring fixed between the rear side of the L-shaped block and the lower front end of the geological ruler, and a label paper installed in the concave block.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the angle between the L-shaped block and the concave block can be changed by rotating the L-shaped block that is engaged with the lower end of the front side of the concave block, so that the marking component can be opened or closed according to whether the label paper needs to be replaced, and the L-shaped block is elastically reset to one end of the concave block by a spring, effectively preventing the label paper from falling out due to loose closure, thereby effectively improving the stability of the label paper installation.
[0016] The utility model is further configured as follows: the L-shaped block is a transparent shell, and the label paper is located between the concave block and the L-shaped block.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution and using the L-shaped block as a transparent shell, geological practitioners can observe the geological age information of geological bodies such as minerals and rocks, which effectively improves the working efficiency of the geological ruler. At the same time, multiple marking components can replace label papers separately, further improving the working efficiency of the geological ruler.
[0018] The utility model is further configured as follows: the upper and lower ends of the two plate bodies and the four second plate bodies are provided with scales, and the label paper is opposite to the scales up and down.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solution and using the label paper to correspond to the scale, geological practitioners can quickly compare and find the geological age information of geological bodies such as minerals and rocks, so that the obtained measurement data is more accurate.
[0020] The utility model is further configured as follows: a virtual straight line is provided on the front side of one end of the second plate body, and the virtual straight line is located at the end of the scale.
[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, using the virtual straight line set on the front side of one end of the second plate body, uncertainty can be left for the early historical time of the formation of the earth, indicating its unknown nature.
[0022] In summary, the beneficial technical effects of the utility model are:
[0023] 1. The measuring ruler and geological ruler are slidably matched on the upper and lower sides of the opening, so that the two can be combined into one, and the measuring ruler and the geological ruler can be switched according to the usage, which is convenient for geological practitioners to measure and refer to geological bodies such as minerals and rocks, and is more convenient to use and prevents omissions.

[0032] The utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0033] Reference Figure 1-4 , a portable geological ruler disclosed in the utility model, comprising: a shell 1, an opening 2 penetrating the middle of the lower side of the shell 1 is provided in the middle of the upper side of the shell 1, a measuring ruler 3 and a geological ruler 4 are respectively slidably matched on the upper and lower sides of the opening 2, and the measuring ruler 3 and the geological ruler 4 both include a first plate 5, a groove provided in the middle of the first plate 5, a gear 6 rotatably matched in the middle of the groove, two tooth plates 7 slidably matched in the groove, and two second plates 8 respectively fixed to the opposite outer ends of the two tooth plates 7;
[0034] The gear 6 is located between the two tooth plates 7 and meshes with the two tooth plates 7. The two second plates 8 are slidably fitted in the grooves respectively, and the geological ruler 4 and the measuring ruler 3 correspond to each other up and down. A plurality of marking components 9 are installed at the lower ends of the front sides of the first plate 5 and the two second plates 8 in the geological ruler 4.
[0035] The working principle of the device is as follows: when the geological ruler 4 needs to be used, the geological ruler 4 is first driven to move upward. At this time, the relative outer side of the first plate 5 slides and cooperates with the relative inner side of the opening 2, and is moved out of the shell 1. Then, one gear 6 is rotated so that the one gear 6 is meshed and rotated with the two tooth plates 7, so that the two tooth plates 7 drive the two second plates 8 to move away from each other in the groove, and the two tooth plates 7 are moved out of the groove. After the removal is completed, the geological practitioner takes the geological ruler 4 after the removal to measure geological bodies such as minerals and rocks, and quickly compares and finds the geological age information of geological bodies such as minerals and rocks according to multiple marking components 9, thereby completing the use of the geological ruler 4. When the measuring ruler 3 is used, the same is true.
[0036] Reference Figure 1 In this embodiment, the middle parts of the two first plates 5 are rotatably matched with the rotating rods 10 fixed to the axial parts of the two gears 6, and the middle part of the front side of the housing 1 is provided with two corresponding rectangular grooves 11, and the two rotating rods 10 are respectively slidably matched in the two rectangular grooves 11; Figure 3In this embodiment, a T-shaped block 12 is fixed to the middle of the inner side of the opening 2, and a slide column 13 is slidably matched to the middle of the two opposite ends of the T-shaped block 12. One end of the two opposite slide columns 13 is respectively fixed to one end of the two first plates 5, and the opposite outer ends of the two first plates 5 are respectively slidably matched to the inner side of the opening 2. There is a certain friction between the rotating rod 10 and the first plate 5, and the rotating rod 10 can only be rotated when it needs to be rotated manually.
[0037] When the geological ruler 4 is used, first push the rotating rod 10 upwards. At this time, the rotating rod 10 slides in the rectangular groove 11, and the two sliding columns 13 slide in the middle of the upper ends of the two T-shaped blocks 12. When the geological ruler 4 is completely moved out of the shell 1, the upper ends of the two sliding columns 13 support and stabilize the lower end of the geological ruler 4, and then manually rotate the rotating rod 10 to make the rotating rod 10 drive the gear 6 to rotate, so that the gear 6 engages and rotates with the two toothed plates 7, so that the two toothed plates 7 drive the two second plates 8 to move away from each other in the groove, so that the two second plates 8 are moved out of the groove, and the geological ruler 4 is spliced and can be used normally. Then the geological practitioner takes the geological ruler 4 after the removal to measure geological bodies such as minerals and rocks, and quickly compares and finds the geological age information of geological bodies such as minerals and rocks according to the multiple marking components 9, thereby completing the use of the geological ruler 4. When the measuring ruler 3 is used, the same is true.
[0038] Reference Figure 2 The marking assembly 9 of this embodiment includes a concave block 14 fixed to the front lower end of the first plate body 5 and the two second plates 8 in the geological ruler 4, an L-shaped block 15 rotatably matched to the front lower end of the concave block 14, a spring 16 fixed between the rear side of the L-shaped block 15 and the front lower end of the geological ruler 4, and a label paper installed in the concave block 14; the L-shaped block 15 of this embodiment is a transparent shell, and the label paper is located between the concave block 14 and the L-shaped block 15; refer to Figure 1 In this embodiment, the upper and lower ends of the two plates 5 and the four second plates 8 are provided with scales 17, and the label paper is opposite to the scales 17. In this embodiment, a virtual straight line 18 is provided on the front side of one end of one of the second plates 8, and the virtual straight line 18 is located at the end of the scale 17.
[0039] When replacing a label paper, manually rotate the L-shaped block 15, at this time, one end of the L-shaped block 15 is rotated and matched with one end of the concave block 14, changing the angle between the L-shaped block 15 and the concave block 14, and opening it. At this time, the spring 16 elastically stretches according to its own elasticity, and then the label paper is replaced. After the replacement is completed, release the L-shaped block 15, and then the spring 16 elastically contracts to drive the L-shaped block 15 to return to its original position, and the replaced label paper is closed and sealed, thereby completing the replacement of the label paper.
[0040] When measuring geological bodies such as minerals and rocks, the geological ruler 4 is used as a reference, and the scale 17 on the geological ruler 4 is compared with the geological bodies such as minerals and rocks for measurement, and then the measured size on the scale 17 is compared with the corresponding label paper, so as to obtain the geological age information of the geological bodies such as minerals and rocks according to the label paper, thereby completing the measurement of the geological bodies such as minerals and rocks. At the same time, since the earliest formation time of the earth is still a mystery, the dotted straight line 18 is processed to indicate its unknown nature.
[0041] The above-mentioned embodiments may be combined with each other.
[0042] The embodiments of this specific implementation method are all preferred embodiments of the utility model, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
