[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution: a soil sample storage rack based on spectral analysis, comprising a rack body 1, with a set of partitions 2 fixedly connected inside the rack body 1. The partitions 2 cooperate with the rack body 1 to form several receiving chambers within the rack body 1, thus separating the samples and preventing confusion between multiple samples, ensuring reliable sample storage. Each receiving chamber is equipped with a conveyor belt 4, and several placement boxes 6 are hinged to each conveyor belt 4. Soil samples can be stored using the placement boxes 6, making the operation simple and convenient. Several teeth 7 are fixedly connected to each conveyor belt 4. Several openings are formed on the upper surface of the rack body 1 to connect with the receiving chambers. The corresponding mounting port 8 has a gear 9 rotatably connected inside each mounting port 8, which is adapted to the teeth 7. Each gear 9 meshes with the teeth 7 on the conveyor belt 4. The front of the placement rack body 1 has several openings 12 corresponding to the receiving chamber. Specifically, the gear 9 meshes with the teeth 7 on the conveyor belt 4 to form a transmission mechanism that can drive the conveyor belt 4 to rotate. When the operator operates, he can directly turn the gear 9 to drive the conveyor belt 4 to rotate. When the conveyor belt 4 is running in a cycle, the sample located inside the placement rack body 1 can be transported to the opening 12. This allows the operator to take the sample without reaching into the placement rack body 1, which significantly improves the convenience of sample storage and retrieval and is beneficial for analysis and testing.

[0023] Each placement box 6 is fixedly connected to a counterweight at its bottom, and each placement box 6 always keeps its opening facing upwards. This prevents the sample placed in the placement box 6 from spilling and ensures the safety of sample storage. Specifically, the placement box 6 adopts a hinged and counterweight design, which ensures that it always keeps its opening facing upwards no matter how the conveyor belt 4 moves, preventing the sample from spilling. This is especially suitable for powdery or loose soil samples.

[0024] Each of the chambers has two grooves 3 corresponding to the conveyor belt 4. Each groove 3 has a connecting belt 5 slidably connected inside it. Each connecting belt 5 is fixedly connected to the conveyor belt 4. Each connecting belt 5 has several circular grooves 13. Each circular groove 13 has balls 14 inside it. The conveyor belt 4 can slide in the groove 3 through the connecting belt 5. The balls 14 on the connecting belt 5 can reduce friction, making the conveying process more stable and avoiding vibration from affecting the sample.

[0025] The bottom surface of the placement rack body 1 is fixedly connected to a set of anti-slip pads. Several label plates 10 are detachably installed on the upper surface of the placement rack body 1. Each label plate 10 is located on the right side of the gear 9. Two first magnetic blocks 11 are embedded in the lower surface of each label plate 10. Several second magnetic blocks corresponding to the first magnetic blocks 11 are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the placement rack body 1. Specifically, the anti-slip pads at the bottom of the placement rack body 1 enhance the stability of the equipment, prevent displacement during operation, and ensure safety. The label plates 10 facilitate the identification and retrieval of soil samples by staff. They are fixed in place using the first and second magnetic blocks and can be flexibly removed for adjustment.

[0026] Working Principle: When samples need to be stored or retrieved, the operator rotates gear 9. The meshing of gear 9 with the teeth 7 on the conveyor belt 4 drives the conveyor belt 4 to circulate along the groove 3 within the receiving chamber. Multiple placement boxes 6 are hinged to the conveyor belt 4 to store soil samples. Each placement box 6, under the action of a bottom counterweight, keeps its opening facing upwards during transport, ensuring sample stability and preventing spillage. As the conveyor belt 4 operates, the placement boxes 6 move with it, transporting samples originally located inside the main body 1 to the outer opening 12 for easy access by the operator. The conveyor belt 4 slides through the groove 3 via a connecting belt 5. The ball bearings 14 on the connecting belt 5 reduce friction, making the transport process smoother and preventing vibration from affecting the samples. After a sample is removed or placed, the conveyor belt 4 continues to operate, allowing empty placement boxes 6 to re-enter the main body 1, forming a circular storage structure that improves space utilization.

[0027] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
