Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of geophysical prospecting sampling equipment, and particularly relates to a sampling device for beach exploration. Background Art
[0002] The beach sampling frame is mainly applied to the quantitative sampling of organisms in beaches, swamps and intertidal zones. In these environments, the beach sampling frame can help researchers quickly and accurately collect representative benthic biological samples, and then analyze and study the types, quantities, distributions, etc. of benthic organisms.
[0003] The existing beach sampling frames are usually made of stainless steel into a square frame body of a certain height. For example, the quantitative sampling frame for shallow beach benthic biological investigation proposed by Zhou Jun et al. includes a frame body with upper and lower openings surrounded by several frame walls. An outward-turning edge with a radial width of at least 60 mm extending outward is provided from the frame opening of the frame body. The outward-turning edge forms a 90° angle with the frame wall. During sampling, the sampling frame needs to be inserted into the bottom mud, and tools such as a steel shovel are used to dig out the samples within the enclosed area, and the types, quantities, etc. of the included benthic organisms are identified and counted. However, when sampling, it is necessary to sample at multiple points within the set range, and it is necessary to bend down multiple times for the actions of framing and digging, with a large workload. Moreover, when digging out the samples, there is a risk of damaging the organisms in the samples, resulting in sampling deviation. Summary of the Utility Model

[0026] In order to better understand the technical content of the present utility model, specific embodiments are hereby given and described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings as follows.
[0027] Since the existing sampling frame has a relatively simple structure and can only play a role in enclosing when inserted into the bottom mud, and cannot take out the bottom mud selected by the frame. When using tools such as a shovel to dig out the bottom mud in the frame, the biological samples in the mud will be damaged. Therefore, the present utility model provides a sampling device for beach exploration, aiming to solve the problem that the bottom mud selected by the sampling frame cannot be taken out without damage. As shown in the accompanying drawings, the sampling device for beach exploration exemplified by the present utility model includes a sampling frame 10, a limiting plate 20 and a shovel 30.
[0028] As Figure 1 shown, the sampling frame 10 is set as a frame body with a square cross-section, and has a first port that can be inserted into the bottom mud and a second port distributed opposite to the first port. Generally, the sampling frame 10 is formed by welding stainless steel thin plates, and its size is set in the range of 10 cm × 10 cm × 15 cm - 25 cm × 25 cm × 30 cm (length × width × height).
[0029] It should be understood that according to actual usage requirements, the sampling frame 10 can also be designed into other suitable sizes.
[0030] Further, the limiting plate 20 is fixedly arranged on one side of the sampling frame 10, and there is an activity cavity 204 between the limiting plate 20 and the sampling frame 10. The shovel 30 is movably installed in the activity cavity 204 and is respectively provided with a first end and a second end along the moving direction. Among them, the size of the limiting plate 20 is the same as the size of one side surface of the sampling frame 10. Taking the thickness of the shovel 30 as 2 mm as an example, the interval distance between the limiting plate 20 and the sampling frame 10 is set at 3 mm, and the shovel 30 can move up and down freely in the activity cavity 204.
[0031] As an optional method, in order to make it easier for the sampling frame 10 to be inserted downward into the soil layer on one side of the limiting plate 20, a wedge surface 201 is provided at the connection between the limiting plate 20 and the first port. The setting of this wedge surface 201 can reduce the frictional resistance when the sampling frame 10 together with the limiting plate 20 is inserted into the soil layer.
[0032] Further, in order to enable the shovel 30 to adjust from the vertical movement direction to the horizontal movement direction, slide rails 101 are provided on the inner walls of two sides adjacent to the activity cavity 204 in the sampling frame 10. The slide rails 101 are vertically distributed in a different plane from the activity cavity 204. A guiding portion 203 is provided at the junction of the activity cavity 204 and the slide rails 101. The guiding portion 203 is arranged to guide the shovel 30 towards the direction of the slide rails 101, so that the shovel 30 can enter the slide rails 101 from the activity cavity 204 along the guiding portion 203 and close the first port.
[0033] In the embodiment of the optional method, the first end of the shovel 30 is arranged in a conical tip shape, and the guiding portion 203 is configured as a wedge surface or an arc surface that can guide the first end by ninety degrees, so that the first end is guided from the activity cavity 204 to the slide rails 101. In this way, when the shovel 30 is pushed downward in the activity cavity 204, the first end of the shovel 30 can enter the sampling frame 10 along the slide rails 101. And when the shovel 30 moves to abut against the inner wall of the sampling frame 10, it can close the first port. At this time, the sampling frame 10 and the shovel 30 form a lower-closed basin-shaped structure, and the sediment above the shovel 30 in the sampling frame 10 can be isolated. When the sampling frame 10 is pulled out upward, all the sampled sediment can be taken out without damage, which can ensure the integrity of biological samples and improve the sampling accuracy.
[0034] Further, in order to facilitate pushing the shovel 30 downward, as Figure 2 shown, a handle 40 is fixedly provided at the second end of the shovel 30. A chute 202 for the handle 40 to pass through is opened on the limiting plate 20. The chute 202 is perpendicular to the slide rails 101. In the embodiment of the optional method, the handle 40 is arranged as a rectangular plate with a certain thickness, and plastic or alloy materials can be used, which is convenient for people to hold. The handle 40 is connected to the shovel 30 through one or two contact points, and the chute 202 is correspondingly located at the position of the contact points. In this way, it is convenient for people to push the shovel 30 from the vertical state to the horizontal state to shovel up the sediment.
[0035] In an alternative embodiment, in order to enhance the structural strength of the sampling frame 10 and prevent the sampling frame 10 from deforming during use, especially for a relatively large-sized sampling frame 10 welded from plates of the same thickness, whose strength is lower and more prone to deformation, a frame 11 is fixedly provided on the outer wall of the second port of the sampling frame 10, and reinforcing ribs 12 are fixedly provided between the frame 11 and the outer wall of the sampling frame 10. The size of the frame 11 is larger than that of the sampling frame 10, and eight reinforcing ribs 12 are arranged around the frame 11 to strengthen the axial strength of the sampling frame 10.
[0036] Furthermore, a first relief groove 102 is provided on the frame 11 corresponding to the handle 40 to facilitate the pushing of the handle 40.
[0037] In an alternative embodiment, the device further includes a cover plate 60. The cross-sectional dimension of the cover plate 60 is set to be the same as that of the frame 11, and the cover plate 60 is fixedly installed on the frame 11 by a "C"-shaped clip. A second push rod 70 is fixedly installed at the middle position of the cover plate 60, and the second push rod 70 is perpendicular to the cover plate 60.
[0038] Furthermore, a second relief groove 601 is provided on the cover plate 60 corresponding to the handle 40, and a first push rod 50 is hingedly installed on the handle 40. The length of the first push rod 50 is greater than the length of the shovel 30.
[0039] In this way, by adding the cover plate 60 with the second push rod 70 to the sampling frame 10 and hingedly installing the first push rod 50 on the handle 40, the sampling frame 10 can be inserted into the bottom mud without bending down, and the first push rod 50 can be pushed downward to push the shovel 30 into the sampling frame 10 to scoop up the bottom mud.
[0040] Combined with the above embodiments, a limiting plate 20 for placing the shovel 30 is provided on the outside of the sampling frame 10, and a slide rail 101 cooperating with the shovel 30 is provided inside the sampling frame 10, so that the shovel 30 can be horizontally inserted into the sampling frame 10 along the slide rail 101 to scoop up the bottom mud of the sampling frame 10 without damage, which can protect the biological samples in the bottom mud from being damaged, and a lengthened push rod cooperating with the sampling frame 10 is configured, so that the sampling frame 10 can be inserted into the bottom mud and sampled without bending down. Especially when there are many sampling points, the labor intensity can be reduced.
[0041] Although the present utility model has been disclosed above with preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present utility model. Those with ordinary knowledge in the technical field to which the present utility model belongs can make various modifications and refinements without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the present utility model shall be subject to what is defined by the claims.
