[0034] Embodiment 1:
[0035] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, the present utility model provides a tool for facilitating the collection and quartering of soil samples, including:
[0036] Bottom plate 1, on the upper surface of which a quartering plate 10 is inserted;
[0037] Four baffles 2, one end of each baffle 2 is hinged to the corresponding edge of the bottom plate 1;
[0038] Four L-shaped plates 3, each L-shaped plate 3 includes a fixed part and a connecting part;
[0039] Among them, fastening holes are provided on the outer walls of two relatively arranged baffles 2;
[0040] On both sides of the outer walls of the other two relatively arranged baffles 2 are respectively connected to the fixed parts of the L-shaped plates 3, and fasteners 4 are threadedly connected to the connecting parts of the L-shaped plates 3;
[0041] The fastener 4 cooperates with the fastening hole so that the adjacent baffles 2 are fixed together and jointly form a container for holding soil samples with the bottom plate 1.
[0042] In use, the bottom plate 1 serves as the basis of the tool, providing a stable surface for receiving the mixed soil samples. The quartering plate 10 is inserted into the bottom plate 1 to form four equal - divided areas, which is the basis for quartering the soil samples. The four baffles 2 can be folded up to enclose the soil samples and jointly form a container with the bottom plate 1. The container plays a protective role during the processing of soil samples. The connecting part cooperates with the fastening hole on the baffle 2 through the fastener 4, enabling the adjacent baffles 2 to be fixed together, forming a more stable container and improving the practicality of the device.
[0043] A rotating shaft 11 is connected to the top of the quartering plate 10, and a scraping unit is arranged at the top of the rotating shaft 11 for scraping the soil samples held.
[0044] The scraping unit includes:
[0045] A rotating cylinder 5, which is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 11;
[0046] Scraping plates 50, at least two scraping plates 50 are provided and evenly distributed on the outer wall of the rotating cylinder 5 and are connected to the outer wall of the rotating cylinder 5. The bottom surface of the scraping plate 50 is located below the rotating cylinder 5 and is on the same plane as the top surface of the quartering plate 10. The length of the scraping plate 50 is not less than half of the length of the bottom plate 1.
[0047] In use, through the design of the rotating cylinder 5 and the scraping plates 50 of the scraping unit, the rotation of the rotating cylinder 5 causes the scraping plates 50 to spread the soil samples, thus ensuring the full mixing of the samples, improving the representativeness of the samples and the accuracy of the analysis results.
[0048] A rotating handle 6 is arranged at the top of the rotating cylinder 5. The rotating handle 6 includes:
[0049] A rotating arm 60, one end of the rotating arm 60 is connected to the top of the rotating cylinder 5;
[0050] A grip 61, the grip 61 is perpendicular to the rotating arm 60, and the end of the rotating arm 60 away from the rotating cylinder 5 is connected to the grip 61;

[0053] During use, hold the sleeve 62 and rotate it, which in turn drives the rotating arm 60 to rotate, causing the rotating cylinder 5 to rotate, completing the quartering of the soil sample. This not only facilitates operation but also improves the efficiency of soil sample processing. One soil sample corresponds to one baffle 2, avoiding the technical problem of adjacent soil samples being mixed together and improving the safety of the device.
[0054] A protective plate 30 is provided at the top of each L-shaped plate 3, and the protective plate 30 is located directly above the fastener 4.
[0055] During use, the protective plate 30 is located directly above the fastener 4. When the scraping plate 50 is working, the protective plate 30 can prevent the fastener 4 from being contaminated with soil, thus keeping the fastener clean and improving the durability of the device.
[0056] The fastening hole is a threaded hole, and the fastener 4 is a bolt.
[0057] During use, through the cooperation of the bolt and the threaded hole, the baffle 2 can be fixed together more firmly, forming a more stable container and improving the stability of the device.
[0058] Working principle: The bottom plate 1 serves as the foundation of the tool, providing a stable surface for receiving the mixed soil sample. The quartering plate 10 is inserted into the bottom plate 1 to form four equal division areas, which is the basis for quartering the soil sample.
[0059] The four baffles 2 can be folded up to enclose the soil sample and jointly form a container with the bottom plate 1. The container plays a protective role during the processing of the soil sample.
[0060] The connecting part cooperates with the fastening hole on the baffle through the fastener 4, enabling adjacent baffles 2 to be fixed together, forming a more stable container and improving the practicality of the device.
[0061] When the rotating cylinder 5 rotates, the scraping plates 50 evenly distributed on the outer wall of the rotating cylinder 5 flatten the soil sample. The length of the scraping plates 50 ensures the uniform mixing of the sample. The design of the protective plate 30 can prevent the fastener from being contaminated with soil when the scraping plate 50 is working, playing a shielding role.
[0062] The rotating handle 6 includes a rotating arm 60 and a grip 61. The rotating cylinder 5 can be easily controlled to rotate by rotating the rotating handle 6 to complete the quartering of the soil sample.
[0063] By screwing two of the fasteners 4 to open one of the baffles 2 and discard this portion of the soil sample, and then opening the baffle 2 opposite to it to discard this portion of the soil sample. One soil sample corresponds to one baffle 2, avoiding the technical problem of adjacent soil samples being mixed together and improving the safety of the device.
[0064] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and do not limit the patent scope of the present utility model accordingly. All equivalent changes and modifications made according to the scope of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope covered by the present utility model.
