Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of paleobotanical experimental tool research technology, and in particular to a replaceable plant fossil cleaning tool. Background Technology

[0002] Paleobotany, a branch of paleontology, is the science that studies the plant kingdom during geological history. The foundation of paleobotany is the identification of plant fossils; determining the genus and species is essential for further research. Plant fossil identification primarily combines macroscopic characteristics (such as size, number of veins, leaf margin features, and leaf cleavage) and microscopic characteristics (including cell shape and size, cell wall features, number and composition of stomata, and differences between upper and lower epidermis) with comparisons to known genera and species. Macroscopic observation is mainly conducted using a magnifying glass or stereomicroscope. Microscopic characteristics require epidermal experiments. The commonly used method involves removing the plant fossil epidermis from the surrounding rock, removing the rock with HCl and HF, oxidizing the epidermis with concentrated nitric acid and saturated potassium chlorate, and then briefly soaking it in ammonia. During soaking, tools can be used to separate the upper and lower epidermis, removing any residual organic matter. After washing, the epidermis is divided to the desired size and observed under an optical microscope or scanning electron microscope for research purposes.

[0003] Traditional methods of cleaning surrounding rock of plant fossils rely solely on a single fossil cleaning needle. These needles lack a fixed size, have thin handles, and are difficult to grip. Other tools used in the fossil cleaning process, such as brushes, calipers, and rubber balls, cannot be used in conjunction with this single needle, impacting work efficiency. Electric cleaning pens, with their high rotation speed and strong centrifugal force, are less effective at cleaning more fragile fossils like plant fossils, often damaging the surface of the fossils.

[0004] According to the "Replaceable Plant Fossil Cleaning Tool" provided in application number 201922485110.2, the tool uses a scale line with a measurement unit of millimeters to determine the size of the epidermis under a stereomicroscope, serves as a scale bar when photographing fossils, and can also be carried for field photography and measurement. The use of stainless steel provides sufficient hardness and resistance to acid and alkali corrosion. The design of the connecting screw seat allows for free switching between different tools. This solves the current problem of the lack of specialized tools for peeling fossils from surrounding rocks in paleoplant fossil research, making paleoplant fossil research more convenient and improving the efficiency of fossil cleaning.

[0005] However, when using the aforementioned peeling needle, if the handle plate is cylindrical, its scale lines are engraved on the handle surface and cannot fit closely to the fossil, resulting in a large error during observation. Moreover, the handle is prone to rolling when placed on a table. If it is plate-shaped, it will affect the grip. In addition, the threaded installation method of the peeling needle requires holding the peeling needle by hand, which poses a risk of puncture, and the installation speed is slow. Therefore, in view of the above phenomena, a replaceable plant fossil cleaning tool is proposed to meet the needs of practical use. Utility Model Content

Hexagonal mounting heads 25 are fixedly installed on both ends of the handle portion 21, and a first strong magnet 26 is embedded in the end of the hexagonal mounting head 25. A second strong magnet 28 is embedded in the surface of the groove 27. A first side groove 29 is provided on the surface of the handle portion 21 to facilitate the finger pulling out the measuring ruler 22. The measuring ruler 22 can rotate at a certain angle, thereby allowing the measuring ruler 22 to fit against the surface of the plant fossil. The measuring ruler 22 and the handle portion 21 combine to form a cylinder. The needle 3 includes a first sleeve 31 and a needle 33. The needle 33 is 25mm long and 1.5-2mm in diameter. The first sleeve 31 has various shapes, and a suitable shape can be selected according to the needs. Common shapes include straight, bent, and flat. The first sleeve 31 has a first hexagonal groove 32 on its side. After it is engaged with the hexagonal mounting head 25, it can prevent rotation. When the needle 3 is used, it is generally necessary to apply downward force. The needle 3 will not fall off the end of the handle 2. One end of the needle 33 is fixedly installed on one side of the first sleeve 31. The first sleeve 31 is magnetically attached to one end of the hexagonal mounting head 25. The cleaning tool 4 includes a second sleeve head 41 and a brush head 43. The second sleeve head 41 has various shapes and sizes, and can be appropriately sized and shaped as needed.

After processing the fossil surface, the handle 2 can be rotated to clean it with the cleaning tool 4, preventing impurities from affecting observation. The measuring ruler 22 can be lifted to fit against the plant fossil surface for more accurate measurements. A second strong magnet 28 holds the stainless steel measuring ruler 22 in the groove 27, forming a complete cylinder with the handle 21 without affecting hand grip. The handle 21 has an Ω-shaped cross-section, preventing it from rolling when placed on a table.

[0032] Based on Embodiment 1, the tool storage box 1 includes a base box 11, inside which a storage base plate 12 is fixedly installed. The surface of the storage base plate 12 has a first groove 13 and a second groove 15. The first groove 13 is adapted to the size of the handle 2. There are several second grooves 15, the sizes of which are respectively matched to needles 3, cleaning tools 4, and air blowing tools 5. A third groove 16 is opened on the side of the second groove 15, and a second side groove 14 is opened on the side of the first groove 13. The sides of the base box 11... A slot 17 is provided, located on the side of the third slot 16. The top of the bottom box 11 is movably mounted with a top cover 18 via a hinge 113. A sponge layer 19 is fixedly mounted on one side of the top cover 18, which can press against the top of the handle 2, needle 3 and cleaning tool 4 to increase its stability in the tool storage box 1. A handle 112 is movably mounted on the surface of the top cover 18. A baffle 111 matching the slot 17 is fixedly mounted on the side of the top cover 18. A buckle 110 is provided between the side of the bottom box 11 and the side of the top cover 18.

[0033] In this embodiment, the storage base plate 12 is made of foam plastic, which has a certain degree of rigidity to maintain the structural stability of the inner lining without causing excessive pressure on the tools. It can be cut according to the shape of the handle 2, needles 3, and cleaning tools 4. The handle 2 is placed in the first slot 13, and the different needles 3 and cleaning tools 4 are placed in the respective second slots 15. The third slot 16 can hold the first end cap 31 and the second end cap 41. The slot 17 allows the hexagonal mounting head 25 to pass through, so that the needles 3 or cleaning tools 4 can be magnetically attracted directly to the needles 3, cleaning tools 4, or air blower 5 without having to remove them, thus avoiding the risk of hand injury from the needles 3. The second side slot 14 facilitates the removal of the handle 2, and the baffle 111 can block the slot 17 to prevent dust from entering. The handle 112 makes it easy to carry the tool storage box 1.
