[0026] This device transports the coal sample to the feeding chute opening through the conveying mechanism and enters the material cavity of the sampling device through the feeding chute opening. Then, the motor arranged behind the sampling device drives the sampling head to rotate through the rotating shaft. The sampling head rotates along the inner wall of the material cavity of the sampling device. When passing through the feeding chute opening, the coal sample is inserted into the material cavity of the sampling head through the sampling port and the sampling inclined plate arranged on the sampling head; when the sampling port is located at the discharge port, the coal sample will pass through the discharge port from the material cavity of the sampling head and fall into the blanking pipeline. Finally, it is aligned with the sample collection port through the blanking pipeline and enters the sample collection bottle to complete the coal sample collection. When one of the sample collection bottles is full, the sample collection turntable can be rotated to align the next sample collection bottle with the sample collection port, and the coal sample collection work is completed in sequence..
