DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0021] The following will combine the drawings and specific embodiments to elaborate on the utility model in detail.
[0022] Embodiment: Please refer to Figures 1 to 4, this embodiment provides an underground metal detector, including a battery compartment. The battery compartment includes a battery placement rack 1. In this embodiment, the front end of the battery placement rack 1 is provided with an open structure. The cross-section of the battery placement rack 1 is in a "U" shape for placing the battery. On the side wall of the rear end of the battery placement rack 1, a limiting rib 2 and a retaining ring 3 are provided. The position of the limiting rib 2 corresponds to the positive electrode end of the battery, and the position of the retaining ring 3 corresponds to the negative electrode end of the battery. Inside both the limiting rib 2 and the retaining ring 3, a battery spring 4 is provided. Among them, the battery spring 4 provided inside the limiting rib 2 is completely retracted inside the limiting rib 2, so that the negative electrode end of the battery cannot contact the battery spring 4 at this position when it does not enter the limiting rib 2. The battery spring 4 provided inside the retaining ring 3 extends outward from the retaining ring 3 to facilitate the connection of the negative electrode end of the battery.
[0023] To avoid the short-circuit problem caused by the reverse installation of the battery, the setting of the limiting rib 2 satisfies that the negative electrode end of the battery cannot enter the inside of the limiting rib 2. It can be that the contour of the limiting rib 2 is smaller than the cross-section of the negative electrode end of the battery, so that the negative electrode end of the battery cannot enter the inside of the limiting rib 2. In the prior art, a convex carbon rod part is usually provided at the positive electrode end of the common battery, and the diameter of the convex carbon rod part is smaller than the diameter of the negative electrode end of the battery. To enable the positive electrode end of the battery to contact and conduct with the battery spring 4 inside the limiting rib 2, the setting of the limiting rib 2 also satisfies that the carbon rod part of the positive electrode end of the battery can enter the inside of the limiting rib 2, that is, it can be that the contour of the limiting rib 2 is larger than the cross-section of the carbon rod part of the positive electrode end of the battery, so that the carbon rod part of the positive electrode end of the battery can enter the inside of the limiting rib 2. At the same time, the height difference between the limiting rib 2 and the corresponding battery spring 4 satisfies that the carbon rod part of the positive electrode end of the battery can contact the corresponding battery spring 4 by extending into the limiting rib 2, thereby realizing conduction.
[0024] The underground metal detector further includes a handle part 5. The battery compartment is arranged inside the handle part 5. A replacement opening 6 is opened at the bottom of the handle part 5. The replacement opening 6 is communicated with the battery placement rack 1. A battery cover 7 is covered on the replacement opening 6. The battery cover 7 can be detachably connected to the handle part 5 by the common screw connection method in the prior art to cover the replacement opening 6. When the battery cover 7 is covered on the replacement opening 6, the inner side wall of its rear end can be abutted against the front end of the open structure of the battery placement rack 1 to realize the limitation of the battery in the battery placement rack 1. A battery contact piece is provided on the inner side wall of the rear end of the battery cover 7. When the battery is installed on the battery placement rack 1 and the position of the battery is correct, when the front ends of the two batteries contact the corresponding battery springs 4, the rear ends of the two batteries can also contact the battery contact piece on the battery cover 7 to realize the conduction between the positive and negative electrodes at the corresponding positions of the two batteries.
[0025] With the above settings, when installing the battery, remove the battery cover 7 from the replacement port 6, then place the battery into the battery placement rack 1. When the battery is in the correct position, the positive carbon rod part of the battery at the positive position extends into the limit rib 2 and contacts the battery spring 4 inside the limit rib 2, and the negative end of the battery at the negative position contacts the battery spring 4 inside the snap ring 3. Then, cover the battery cover 7. When the battery is in the wrong position, at this time, the negative end of the battery at the positive position is set facing the limit rib 2, and it cannot contact the battery spring 4 inside the limit rib 2 through the limit rib 2, so that the circuit cannot be conducted at this time. At the same time, when the battery cannot reach the correct installation position, the battery cover 7 cannot be covered either, so as to prompt the user that the installation is incorrect and should be corrected in time.
[0026] A circuit board 8 is also provided inside the handle part 5. The end of each battery spring 4 away from the battery placement rack 1 is connected to the circuit board 8. With the above settings, when the two batteries are in the correct installation positions, a conductive circuit can be formed with the circuit board 8 through contact with the battery springs 4 and the battery contact pieces, so as to supply power to the circuit board 8.
[0027] A display screen 13 is also provided on the top surface of the handle part 5. The display screen 13 is connected to the circuit board 8. A rod body 17 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the handle part 5. A detection plate 18 is provided at the end of the rod body 17 away from the handle part 5. The detection plate 18 is connected to the circuit board 8 and the display screen 13 respectively. A control button 19 is also provided on the top surface of the handle part 5. The control button 19 is connected to the circuit board 8. The control button 19 is used to control the working state of the detection plate 18. With the above settings, the staff holds the handle part 5 by hand, and then uses the control button 19 to control the detection plate 18 to start working, and then the detection work of underground metals can be started. The detection plate 18 can transmit corresponding images to the display screen 13 through the connection with the display screen 13 for the user to read and judge.
[0028] Since the heights of users vary, in order to improve the applicability of the metal detector, in this embodiment, an installation frame 9 is provided on the top surface of the handle portion 5. A first mounting block 10 is provided on the installation frame 9. A connecting column 11 is provided on the first mounting block 10. A second mounting block 12 is rotatably connected to the connecting column 11. The display screen 13 is connected to the second mounting block 12. A first through hole 14 is formed in the second mounting block 12. A first threaded hole 15 is formed in the connecting column 11. The second mounting block 12 and the connecting column 11 can be fixedly connected together by locking a first screw locking member 16 into the first through hole 14 and the first threaded hole 15. Through the above arrangement, the display screen 13 can be set as an adjustable structure. When it is necessary to adjust the angle of the display screen 13 to accommodate users of different heights, by screwing out the first screw locking member 16 so that it is not screwed with the first threaded hole 15, and then rotating the second mounting block 12 to make the second mounting block 12 rotate on the connecting column 11, the display screen 13 can be adjusted to an appropriate angle. After the angle of the display screen 13 is adjusted, screw the first screw locking member 16 back in to make the first screw locking member 16 screw with the first threaded hole 15 and press against the second mounting block 12, thus realizing the fixation of the display screen 13.
[0029] Since the slopes of the applicable sites vary, in order to improve the applicability of the metal detector, in this embodiment, connecting blocks 20 are symmetrically arranged on the side wall of the detection disc 18 close to the rod body 17. The end of the rod body 17 close to the detection disc 18 is arranged to extend between the two connecting blocks 20. Second through holes 21 are formed in both connecting blocks 20. A second threaded hole 22 is formed in the end of the rod body 17 close to the detection disc 18. The rod body 17 and the two connecting blocks 20 can be fixedly connected together by inserting a second screw locking member 23 into the second through hole 21 and the second threaded hole 22 and locking a locking nut 24 onto the second screw locking member 23. Through the above arrangement, the detection disc 18 can be set as an adjustable structure. When it is necessary to adjust the angle of the detection disc 18 to accommodate sites with different slopes, by screwing out the locking nut 24 from the second screw locking member 23, and then, due to the through-hole structure of the second through hole 21, the second screw locking member 23 will not restrict the movement of the two connecting blocks 20. Then, the angle of the detection disc 18 can be adjusted. After the angle of the detection disc 18 is adjusted, by locking the locking nut 24 onto the second screw locking member 23 and making the second locking nut 24 press against the corresponding side connecting block 20, the fixation of the detection disc 18 can be completed.
