Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of directional probe testing, and particularly relates to an adjustable gamma signal generator. Background Art
[0002] In the fields of geological exploration, mineral resource detection, etc., the directional probe is an indispensable and important tool, and its performance directly affects the accuracy and efficiency of exploration. An important function of the directional probe is to collect gamma signals. By analyzing the gamma signals, the radioactive characteristics of underground rock formations can be understood, and then the distribution of mineral resources can be inferred.
[0003] However, there are many deficiencies in the current test methods for the gamma signal acquisition ability of directional probes. The traditional test method usually provides gamma signals to the directional probe through a gamma probe to test the gamma signal acquisition ability of the directional probe. This method can only test the counting ability of the directional probe for gamma signals, and cannot comprehensively evaluate its acquisition ability for gamma signals with different pulse widths and different signal amplitudes, which to a certain extent limits the accuracy and comprehensiveness of the test results.
[0004] In addition, another commonly used test method is to use a pulse generator to simulate gamma signals to test the signal acquisition ability of the directional probe. However, the signal pulse width, amplitude, and frequency adjustment ranges of traditional pulse generators are usually large, which increases the risk of misoperation. During the operation process, once the settings are improper, it is easy to damage the circuit board of the directional probe, thereby affecting its normal use.
[0005] The Chinese invention patent application (application number 2022105455309) discloses a gamma logging tool, including a gamma signal detection circuit, a voltage dividing resistor, a thermistor, a potentiometer, a comparator, and a counter. The gamma signal detection circuit collects gamma rays to obtain gamma signals. The resistance value of the thermistor is positively correlated with the temperature. When the working environment temperature of the gamma logging tool increases, the resistance value of the thermistor increases with the increase of the temperature, thereby realizing the automatic adjustment of the reference threshold voltage value at the reverse input end of the comparator, so as to achieve the purpose of temperature compensation. The comparator outputs gamma pulse signals according to the comparison result of the voltage value of the gamma signal and the reference threshold voltage value, and the counter counts the gamma pulse signals to obtain the gamma count rate, and the logging accuracy is higher. But it can only test the counting ability of the directional probe for gamma signals, and cannot comprehensively evaluate its acquisition ability for gamma signals with different pulse widths and different signal amplitudes.
