Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of archaeological excavation equipment technology, and in particular to a multifunctional archaeological tool. Background Technology
[0002] Archaeological excavation refers to the practice of excavating and studying various sites and tombs. It typically involves removing the burial soil or fill used for burial. When artifacts or ancient relics are unearthed, archaeologists need to clean the surface of the artifacts to determine their value and age. Because these artifacts are usually buried deep underground for long periods, their surfaces are often covered with soil and other impurities, requiring cleaning for identification.
[0003] Most existing archaeological tools can only process artifacts by cleaning and scraping. However, in the archaeological process, it is necessary not only to clean but also to sample and measure the surface of the artifacts in order to achieve initial identification. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to solve at least one of the technical problems mentioned in the background art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a multifunctional archaeological tool that can perform simple measurements, sampling and cleaning, thereby making a rough judgment on the artifacts in the early stage of identification.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A multifunctional archaeological tool includes a tool housing with a first groove and a second groove. A drill bit for scraping small gaps is slidably connected in the first groove, and a measuring ruler for measurement is slidably connected in the second groove. A fixed shaft is provided inside the tool housing, and a cleaning brush for cleaning is rotatably connected to the fixed shaft.
[0007] Furthermore, a slider is fixedly connected to the drill bit, and the slider is slidably connected within the first groove.
[0008] Furthermore, the cleaning brush is equipped with several vacuum cleaners for absorbing dust, and the rear of each vacuum cleaner is connected to a dust collector for storing dust.
[0009] Furthermore, a telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the tool housing, and a wiping block is fixedly connected to the free end of the telescopic rod.
[0010] Furthermore, a metal detector is fixedly connected to the rear of the wiping block.
[0011] Furthermore, a measuring tape is installed inside the tool housing.
[0012] Furthermore, a retaining ring is fixedly connected to the tool housing.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: this utility model can measure the perimeter, length, width and height of the relics by measuring ruler and tape measure, and can also clean the surface of the relics and take samples by sweeping brush and vacuum cleaner. At the same time, the metal detector on the wiping soft block can also perform simple detection of some metal relics. This utility model can reduce the number of various tools to be carried at one time, thus providing convenience. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model are described clearly and completely below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0020] Please see Figure 1 — Figure 4 This embodiment provides a multifunctional archaeological tool, including a tool housing 11. The tool housing 11 is provided with a first groove 12 and a second groove 17. A drill bit 23 for scraping small gaps is slidably connected in the first groove 12. A measuring ruler 18 for measurement is slidably connected in the second groove 17. A fixed shaft 19 is provided inside the tool housing 11. A cleaning brush 20 for cleaning is rotatably connected on the fixed shaft 19.
[0021] A slider 13 is fixedly connected to the drill bit 23, and the slider 13 is slidably connected within the first groove 12.
[0022] The drill bit 23 can be used to clean small crevices, the cleaning brush 20 can be used to clean the surface, and the measuring ruler 18 can be used to measure the length, width and height of the object.
[0023] The cleaning brush 20 is equipped with several vacuum cleaners 21 for absorbing dust, and the rear of each vacuum cleaner 21 is connected to a dust collector 22 for storing dust.
[0024] During cleaning, the vacuum cleaner 21 can be turned on to collect the soil on the surface of the artifacts, and the collected soil can be analyzed for composition.
