Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of geophysical exploration, and in particular to a multi-element induction hollow coil for the ground-to-air electromagnetic method. Background Technology
[0002] Geophysical exploration requires the exploration of complex terrain areas that are difficult for ground personnel to access, such as mountains, hills, and areas with high vegetation cover. Ground-to-air electromagnetic (GTE) detection methods have the potential for high efficiency and deep-penetration exploration, enabling aerial detection of the ground. This significantly reduces the difficulty of the work and improves the efficiency of exploration, thus becoming one of the mainstream detection methods in the field of geophysical exploration. This has spurred the continuous development of related technologies and equipment, and consequently increased the demand for multi-element induction hollow coils for GTE methods.
[0003] In ground-to-air electromagnetic exploration, receiving coils are typically mounted on drones to collect magnetic field information. However, when placing the drone-suspended coil on the ground for exploration, uneven ground can cause the coil to become misaligned. In this case, when collecting a signal for one component, signals for other components may be collected simultaneously. Furthermore, the effective area for data collection is reduced, leading to data distortion and affecting the accuracy of the exploration results. Therefore, a coil that can be placed stably on the ground and accurately collect magnetic field information is needed.
[0004] In ground-to-air electromagnetic detection methods, existing technologies typically involve mounting a receiving device, i.e., a coil, on a drone to collect magnetic field information. However, when the coil suspended on the drone needs to be placed on the ground for detection, existing receiving devices lack a support structure, making it difficult to keep the coil level on uneven ground. This leads to the mixing of signals from other components when acquiring one component of the signal, reduces the effective acquisition area, and ultimately distorts the detected data, severely affecting the accuracy and reliability of the detection results. Therefore, a multi-element inductive hollow coil for ground-to-air electromagnetic detection is proposed to address these issues. Utility Model Content

[0034] Reference Figures 2 to 4 The tensioning assembly 43 includes a sliding ring 431 that slides on a support column. A connecting block 432 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sliding ring 431. The sliding of the sliding ring 431 drives the connecting block 432.

[0036] Working principle: When it is necessary to use a drone for aerial reconnaissance, the fixing mechanism 2 is fixed to the top of the outer shell 1. The fixing column 2 is used to fix the fixing mechanism 2 to the top of the outer shell 1. After fixing, the threaded outer ring 21 is rotated. The inner wall of the threaded outer ring 21 is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the threaded inner ring 22. The threaded outer ring 21 slides downward. During the sliding process, the threaded outer ring 21 is continuously squeezed against the buckle 23. The buckle 23 is tightened by the continuous squeezing of the threaded outer ring 21. The tightened buckle 23 fixes the fixing column 24, so that the fixing column 24 is firmly fixed to the outer shell 1.

At this time, the sliding ring 431 is moved. The outer wall of the sliding ring 431 is fixedly connected to the connecting block 432. The connecting block 432 moves up and down through the drive of the sliding ring 431. The connecting block 432 drives the connecting rod 433 to move. The connecting rod 433 moves under the drive of the connecting block 432, so that the connecting rod drives the tension rod 434 to perform a stretching movement. The stretching movement of the connecting rod takes place on the inner wall of the fixing block 441. The two sides of the fixing block 441 are fixed by the connecting ring 442. The movement of the connecting rod drives the retraction rod 443 to retract. The retraction rod 443 drives the support leg 444 to move, so that the position is adjusted. After adjusting according to the terrain, the coil is in a horizontal state and then fixed with bolts, thereby realizing the coil to conduct surveys and explorations on land.
