Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of disturbed soil well sampling technology, and relates to an undisturbed automatic well sampling robot. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional exploratory well sampling involves drilling a well to a depth of 10m to 50m in Luoyang, where workers manually collect samples from the ground. However, this method carries a significant risk of worker injury or death, and can easily lead to major casualties and substantial economic losses.

[0003] It is necessary to select robots to replace operators for well sampling. For example, application CN209894525U provides a non-disturbance soil well sampling robot. In addition, application CN110068478B discloses a well sampling method based on a non-disturbance soil well sampling robot. They proposed a non-disturbance soil well sampling robot with support airbag expansion support. However, this robot has the inconvenience of needing to configure air source equipment for field operations. Specifically, when using parallel sampling and delivery operations, there is a problem that the swing during single steel wire delivery causes secondary disturbance to the sampling. In addition, the use of robot groove sampling has the problem of soil sampling disturbance and low sampling efficiency caused by the reverse action of robot groove force fluctuation and instability of airbag support device.

[0004] An automatic soil sampling robot with publication number CN111781009B, an automatic soil sampling robot with publication number CN117232892B, and a novel soil sampling robot with publication number CN116713970A all propose to adopt a wheeled or tracked vehicle structure. They are mostly used in vertical downward working conditions. However, due to their large size and complex structure, they are not suitable for working on the well wall of exploration wells. In addition, sampling and delivery cannot be carried out in parallel, resulting in low efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0053] Example 5

[0054] The undisturbed automatic well sampling robot of Embodiment 4 has two forward and backward lead screw pairs 3-2-8 with main shaft support arms 3-2-11 slidably connected to them. The two main shaft support arms 3-2-11 are connected to deflection gearboxes 3-2-10-1 via built-in bearings. A deflection reduction mechanism 3-2-10 is rotatably connected between the two deflection gearboxes 3-2-10-1 via a deflection transmission shaft 3-2-10-2. A deflection motor 3-2-9 is installed at one end of the deflection reduction mechanism 3-2-10. A main shaft motor 3-2-5 is also bolted between the two deflection gearboxes 3-2-10-1. A soil sample cutting blade 3-2-12 is keyed to the end of the deflection gearboxes 3-2-10-1 away from the main shaft motor 3-2-5. Figure 10 As shown, the soil sample cutting tool 3-2-12 is cylindrical and includes three main tool holders, each with two cutting heads.

[0055] Example 6

[0056] Using the undisturbed automatic well sampling robot of Embodiment 5, the operator sets a "Support+" action command through the sampling robot monitoring interface of the operation unit 1. The support motor 3-1-5 of the robot body 3 transmits the support drive power to the four first support claws 3-1-11 via the drive fork 3-1-6 and the four first drive arms 3-1-7; simultaneously, the support drive power is transmitted to the four second support claws 3-1-12 via the drive fork 3-1-6, the four first drive arms 3-1-7, the four drive rods 3-1-8, and the four second drive arms 3-1-10. The first drive arms 3-1-7 and the second drive arms 3-1-10 in the support mechanism 3-1 form a support force with the well wall, thereby achieving fixed support of the robot body 3 at the preset well depth. Setting a "Support-" action command for the robot body 3 allows for a reverse action, achieving separation of the robot body 3 from the well wall. A support spring is installed between the drive arm and the support claw. When the well wall has an irregular roundness, it can ensure effective support between the support claw and the well wall. At the same time, the support spring can absorb some of the impact load when the robot body feeds and samples, reducing the disturbance to the soil sample.

[0057] The operator uses the monitoring interface of the sampling robot in operating unit 1 to set the "Deflection+" action command. The deflection motor 3-2-9 rotates, driving the deflection reduction mechanism 3-2-10 to deflect the sampling or delivery direction of the main spindle motor 3-2-5 and the soil sample cutting blade 3-2-12. The robot's default initial deflection position is towards the wellhead in the delivery direction. Setting the "Deflection-" action command on the robot body 3 deflects the soil sample cutting blade towards the well wall in the sampling direction.

[0058] Operators use the lifting and monitoring interface of operating unit 1 to set the feed speed of robot body 3 and issue the "feed+" action command. The forward / backward motor 3-2-6 rotates, driving the forward / backward lead screw pair 3-2-8 to rotate, thus controlling the feed actions and feed speed of rotary motor 3-2-4, deflection motor 3-2-9, deflection reduction mechanism 3-2-10, main spindle support arm 3-2-11, and soil sample cutting tool 3-2-12. The feed amount and feed speed of the soil sample cutting tool have a certain impact on soil sample disturbance and should be set in conjunction with expert database data and the specific characteristics of the soil sample to reduce the disturbance impact of the feed speed on soil sample cutting.

[0059] The operator uses the monitoring interface of the sampling robot in the operation unit 1 to set the cutting speed "+ / -" action command of the robot body 3. The spindle motor 3-2-5 rotates to drive the soil cutting blade 3-2-12 to perform soil cutting action. The cutting speed of the soil cutting blade has a certain impact on soil sampling disturbance. It should be set in conjunction with expert database data and soil sample specificity to reduce the impact of feed speed on soil cutting disturbance.

[0060] After the soil sample feeding and cutting operations are completed, the operator uses the sampling robot monitoring interface of the operating unit 1 to set micro-deflection and rotation "+ / -" action commands to realize the soil sample cutting blade 3-2-12's snatching action on the soil sample. After the soil sample is snatched, the robot body 3 is set with a "deflection-" action command to deflect the soil sample toward the well wall for sampling, making it easier for the sample delivery mechanism 2-2 to grab the soil sample.

[0061] After the sampling mechanism 2-2 grabs the soil sample, the operator sets the "sampling+" setting, sampling distance, and sampling speed commands for the robot body 3 via the sampling monitoring interface of the operation unit 1. The second winch motor 2-9 drives the second winch wheel 2-6 to rotate via the second gear pair 2-7-2 in the gearbox 2-7. The second steel cable 2-4, wound around the second winch wheel 2-6, is guided by the second guide wheel 2-12-2 until it descends to the preset well depth position of the sampling mechanism 2-2. The weight of the sampling mechanism 2-2 causes the pawl 2-2-5 and pawl rod 2-2-4 to open. When the sampling mechanism is lifted, the pawl 2-2-5 and pawl rod 2-2-4, under the traction force of the second steel cable 2-4, are driven to close by the lifting plate 2-2-3, thus achieving the grabbing of the soil sample. Set the robot body 3 to "sampling-", sampling distance and sampling speed commands to realize the lifting and delivery of soil sample 4 to the surface of the exploration well.

[0062] During the lifting of soil sample 4, the operator uses the sampling robot monitoring interface of the operation unit 1 to set the robot body 3's "rotation + / -" and rotation speed commands. The rotary motor 3-2-4 drives the sixth drive support plate 3-2-2, the second support connecting rod 3-2-3, the third support connecting rod 3-2-13, the fifth support plate 3-2-1, and the second support plate 3-1-2, which in turn drive the forward and backward deceleration mechanism 3-2-7, the forward and backward lead screw pair 3-2-8, the deflection motor 3-2-9, the deflection deceleration mechanism 3-2-10, and the main shaft support arm 3-2-11 to rotate, further driving the soil sample cutting blade 3-2-12 to rotate. This allows control of the four sampling positions of the sampling device. After reaching the sampling position, sampling and sample delivery operations continue. Four samples can be taken at the same well depth in a single operation.

[0063] After sampling is completed at the same well depth, the operator can use the "Support-" actuation command on the sampling robot monitoring interface of the operation unit 1 to separate the sampling robot's support claw from the well wall. By setting the "lifting distance", "lifting speed" and "lifting + / -" commands on the robot body 3 during well exploration through the lifting monitoring interface, the sampling robot can be lowered to the next preset well depth position to continue sampling and delivery at the next well depth position.
