Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of process mineralogy, in particular to a single mineral sorting pen. Background Art
[0002] Single mineral sorting is one of the basic tasks for geological and mineralogical research. The purpose is to select the target mineral to be studied from the ground sample after preliminary enrichment for statistics or for further test analysis. Currently, all these tasks are carried out manually under a stereomicroscope for single mineral selection and parameter measurement.
[0003] The tools used in the work generally include a brush (for sweeping and collecting samples), a glass slide (for flattening and dividing samples), a steel needle (for selecting samples), a sample plate (as a specific operation platform), etc. There are many tools involved and it is very messy. Among them, an important task also includes measuring the particle size of the target mineral. However, the prior art generally measures the mineral in the microscope using a scale or directly measures the mineral in the form of a picture. This way of not being able to directly measure the particle size of the target mineral is prone to errors. The main reasons are as follows: 1) When using a microscope for measurement, it is necessary to make a target for the target mineral. The measurement surface of the cutting surface particle size (i.e., the selected section) of the target may not be the surface to be measured, resulting in limited measurement results; 2) When using a microscope for measurement, a mouse is used for operation. During the manual selection process, there is a large error in the selected measurement distance. Therefore, if the measured data is the actual particle size, it is more meaningful.
[0004] In view of this, it is necessary to design a single mineral sorting pen to solve the above problems. Summary of the Utility Model
[0005] Aiming at the defects of the above prior art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a single mineral sorting pen, which integrates a sample sweeping brush, a sorting steel needle, and a flattening plate on a pen rod, and sets a scale on the steel needle, enabling the staff to directly, accurately, and efficiently measure the particle size of a single mineral.

[0008] Furthermore, the sorting steel needle is made of non-magnetic steel needle.
[0009] Furthermore, scale lines are provided on the sorting steel needle.

[0028] Preferably, the included angle between the extending direction of the level 3 and the extending direction of the pen shaft 2 is 60°; at this time, the values of the scale lines are as follows: in the direction from the pen tip to the pen shaft 2, the scale lines marked on the sorting steel needle 1 are: "11" (corresponding to the length of the sorting steel needle 1 being 10 μm), "12" (corresponding to the length of the sorting steel needle 1 being 20 μm), "13" (corresponding to the length of the sorting steel needle 1 being 74 μm), "14" (corresponding to the length of the sorting steel needle 1 being 106 μm), "15" (corresponding to the length of the sorting steel needle 1 being 148 μm), "16" (corresponding to the length of the sorting steel needle 1 being 590 μm); therefore, the measured sizes of the target minerals are 5 μm (corresponding to the scale line marked "11"), 10 μm (corresponding to the scale line marked "12"), 37 μm (corresponding to the scale line marked "13"), 53 μm (corresponding to the scale line marked "14"), 74 μm (corresponding to the scale line marked "15"), 295 μm (corresponding to the scale line marked "16"); among them, the marks on the scale lines corresponding to the scale lines on the sorting steel needle 1 on the pen cap 7 are set to "10 μm" (at the scale line "11" marked on the sorting steel needle 1), 20 μm (at the scale line "12" marked on the sorting steel needle 1), 74 μm (at the scale line "13" marked on the sorting steel needle 1), 106 μm (at the scale line "14" marked on the sorting steel needle 1), 148 μm (at the scale line "15" marked on the sorting steel needle 1), 590 μm (at the scale line "16" marked on the sorting steel needle 1).
