Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sampling equipment support technology, and in particular to a support structure for mineral exploration grid sampling. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of mineral resource exploration, prospecting grid sampling is a crucial task, helping prospectors accurately understand the distribution, composition, and reserves of underground minerals. To ensure the accuracy and efficiency of sampling, stable support for the sampling equipment is a key factor. However, existing prospecting grid sampling support structures have many problems in practical applications, failing to meet the complex and varied sampling needs. Different regions have vastly different topographical features; sampling sites may be located in undulating mountains, soft wetlands, or uneven wastelands. Most existing support structures have a fixed height, unable to be flexibly adjusted according to the actual terrain. When encountering sampling points at low elevations, the insufficient height of the support structure makes it difficult for the sampling equipment to reach the designated depth for sampling; conversely, when it is necessary to increase the sampling height to avoid obstacles or meet special sampling requirements, the fixed-height support structure cannot meet the needs. Furthermore, with the continuous development of exploration technology, the types and sizes of sampling equipment are becoming increasingly diverse. The existing support structure has a fixed support position and cannot be adjusted to accommodate sampling equipment of different sizes. This results in some large or irregularly shaped sampling devices being unable to be stably placed on the support structure, affecting the normal operation of sampling work. During exploration grid sampling, the sampling equipment will generate varying degrees of vibration, especially during drilling operations where the vibration is more severe. The existing support structure lacks effective vibration damping and stabilization mechanisms, failing to effectively absorb and buffer these vibrations, causing the support structure to sway easily and leading to displacement of the sampling equipment. This not only affects the accuracy of sampling but may also lead to sampling failure, wasting manpower, resources, and time. Furthermore, in areas with soft or uneven ground, the existing support structure, due to its inherent design flaws, struggles to maintain a stable support state. The connection between the support legs and the support platform is not flexible enough and cannot automatically adjust according to ground conditions, making the support structure prone to tilting or even collapse, seriously threatening the safety and smooth progress of sampling operations. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model proposes a support structure for mineral exploration grid sampling, which more accurately solves the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0005] This utility model proposes a support structure for mineral exploration grid sampling, including a support platform. Support legs are provided at the four corners of the bottom of the support platform, and the height of the support legs is adjustable. A mounting groove is provided at the top of the support platform, allowing sampling equipment to penetrate to the bottom of the support platform for sampling. Movable support plates are symmetrically installed at the mounting groove, and the support plates are used to adjust the support position according to the size of the sampling equipment. L-shaped plates are installed on the sides of the support plates, and the L-shaped plates are used to clamp the sampling equipment. A sliding groove is provided at the top of the support platform, and the L-shaped plates slide against the inner wall of the sliding groove.

[0006] Preferably, the support plate is symmetrically provided with sliding plates at its end face, the support platform has a sliding groove on its surface, the sliding plate passes through the sliding groove to the outside of the support platform, the support platform has a limiting plate on its surface, and the sliding plate moves the support plate to a suitable position and then limits it with the limiting plate.

[0007] Preferably, the top of the skateboard is provided with a rod, and the top of the limiting plate is provided with a plurality of limiting holes. The rod passes through the limiting holes to the bottom of the limiting plate, and a support ring is installed on the surface of the rod. The support ring contacts the top of the skateboard.

[0008] Preferably, the support leg includes a rotating seat installed at the bottom of the support platform. The bottom of the rotating seat is rotatably connected to a first support seat, and a second support seat is provided at the bottom of the first support seat. A spring cylinder is installed between the first support seat and the second support seat for elastic support of the first support seat. A T-shaped base is provided through the bottom of the second support seat, and a connector is provided on the surface of the second support seat for adjusting the depth of the T-shaped base after it is inserted into the second support seat, thereby adjusting the height of the entire support leg.

[0009] Preferably, the connector includes a connecting spring mounted on the second surface of the support base, a connecting piece is mounted on the end of the connecting spring, a pin is mounted on the side of the connecting piece, and a plurality of insertion holes are arranged on the surface of the T-shaped base, with the pin penetrating through the insertion holes.

[0010] Preferably, a return spring is installed between the two support seats, a limiting plate is installed on the surface of the rotating seat, a rotating shaft is installed on the surface of the support seat, the rotating shaft passes through to the outside of the rotating seat and is rotatably connected to the rotating seat through a bearing, a fixing plate is installed on the surface of the rotating shaft, and the fixing plate is located on the side where the limiting plate is located on the other rotating seat.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a support structure for mineral exploration grid sampling, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] This prospecting grid sampling support structure allows for adjustments to the support leg height by varying the depth of the T-shaped base inserted into the support seat and using connectors for fixation. This adaptability accommodates different terrains and sampling height requirements, handling both low-lying areas and situations requiring higher sampling heights. Furthermore, the support plate's position can be adjusted by sliding a slide plate within a groove to accommodate different sampling equipment sizes. The L-shaped plate then moves to clamp the sampling equipment, ensuring stable placement for various sampling scenarios and enhancing the versatility and practicality of the support structure.

[0013] The support structure for this prospecting grid sampling system, through the rotating connection between the rotating seats and support seat one, can automatically adjust the support angle according to ground conditions. Combined with the elastic support of the spring cylinder, it effectively absorbs and buffers vibrations generated by the sampling equipment, reducing the impact of vibrations on the support structure and the sampling equipment. The return spring pulls the two rotating seats inwards, preventing the support structure from collapsing due to the rotation of the rotating seats and support seat one. Simultaneously, the relative limiting of the fixing plate and the limiting plate prevents the return spring from pulling too inwards, causing excessive rotation of support seat one, thus ensuring the stability of the support structure under various terrain conditions.

[0019] To more clearly and completely illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, the following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, will further explain this utility model. Example

[0020] like Figures 1-4 As shown in the figure, an embodiment of this utility model proposes a support structure for mineral exploration grid sampling, including a support platform 1, which serves as the base platform for the entire sampling support. Support legs 2 are provided at the four corners of the bottom of the support platform 1, providing support for the platform. The height of the support legs 2 is adjustable, allowing the support structure to adapt to different terrains and sampling height requirements. A mounting groove is provided at the top of the support platform 1, allowing sampling equipment to pass through to the bottom of the platform 1 for sampling operations. Movable support plates 3 are symmetrically arranged at the mounting groove. Since different sampling equipment has varying sizes, the support position can be flexibly adjusted according to the actual size of the sampling equipment by moving the support plates 3, ensuring that the sampling equipment can be stably placed on the support structure. L-shaped plates 4 are installed on the sides of the support plates 3. When the sampling equipment is placed on the support plates 3, the L-shaped plates 4 clamp the equipment, preventing it from shaking or shifting during sampling and ensuring smooth sampling operations. Meanwhile, a movable groove 12 is provided on the top of the support platform 1, and the L-shaped plate 4 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the movable groove 12. This design makes the support plate 3 more stable during movement, and the L-shaped plate 4 can adjust its position synchronously with the movement of the support plate 3, always maintaining effective clamping of the sampling device.

[0021] In this invention, sliding plates 5 are symmetrically arranged on the end face of the support plate 3, and a groove 11 is formed on the surface of the support platform 1. The sliding plates 5 pass through the groove 11 to the outside of the support platform 1. When the position of the support plate 3 needs to be adjusted, the operator can push the sliding plates 5 to slide within the groove 11, thereby moving the support plate 3. A limiting plate 6 is provided on the surface of the support platform 1. When the support plate 3 is moved to the appropriate position, the sliding plates 5 and the limiting plate 6 form a limiting position. This limiting method is simple and effective, ensuring that the support plate 3 remains stable after being adjusted to the required position and will not move arbitrarily due to external forces, thus ensuring the support effect for the sampling equipment. For example, when placing different models of sampling equipment, the operator can move the support plate 3 to the appropriate position according to the equipment size, and fix the support plate 3 in that position through the limiting action of the sliding plates 5 and the limiting plate 6, providing stable support for the sampling equipment.

[0022] In this invention, a rod 51 is provided at the top of the sliding plate 5, and multiple limiting holes 61 are arranged at the top of the limiting plate 6. When the sliding plate 5 moves the support plate 3 to a suitable position, the rod 51 is inserted through the limiting holes 61 to the bottom of the limiting plate 6. At this time, the cooperation between the rod 51 and the limiting holes 61 further enhances the stability of the limiting position and prevents the sliding plate 5 from sliding under large external forces. A support ring 52 is installed on the surface of the rod 51. The support ring 52 contacts the top of the sliding plate 5 and supports the rod 51, preventing the rod 51 from tilting or shaking due to its own weight or other factors, ensuring that the rod 51 can be accurately inserted into the limiting holes 61, and guaranteeing the reliability of the limiting position. For example, during drilling, the sampling equipment will generate large vibrations. Through the cooperation between the rod 51 and the limiting holes 61 and the supporting effect of the support ring 52, the sliding plate 5 and the support plate 3 can be effectively prevented from moving, ensuring the stability of the sampling equipment and the sampling accuracy.

[0023] In this invention, the support leg 2 includes a rotating seat 21 installed at the bottom of the support platform 1. A first support seat 22 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the rotating seat 21. This rotatable connection allows the support leg 2 to adapt to different terrain conditions. For example, when the ground is uneven or soft, the first support seat 22 can rotate relative to the rotating seat 21 to adjust the support angle, ensuring the levelness and stability of the support platform 1 and preventing the soft ground from affecting the stability of the entire support structure. A second support seat 24 is provided at the bottom of the first support seat 22, and a spring cylinder 23 is installed between the first support seat 22 and the second support seat 24. The spring cylinder 23 provides elastic support to the first support seat 22. During sampling, the sampling equipment will vibrate; the spring cylinder 23 can absorb and buffer these vibrations, reducing the impact of vibration on the support structure and sampling equipment, and improving the stability and safety of the sampling operation. A T-shaped base 25 is provided through the bottom of the second support seat 24. By adjusting the depth of the T-shaped base 25 inserted into the second support seat 24, the height of the entire support leg 2 can be adjusted. For example, when encountering low-lying terrain or needing to increase the sampling height, the T-shaped base 25 can be inserted downwards into the support base 24 to increase the height of the support leg 2; conversely, when it is necessary to lower the height, the T-shaped base 25 can be pulled upwards a certain distance. This height adjustment method is simple and convenient, and can meet the needs of different sampling scenarios.

[0024] In this invention, the connector 26 includes a connecting spring 261 mounted on the surface of the support base 24. A connecting piece 262 is mounted at the end of the connecting spring 261, and a pin 263 is mounted on the side of the connecting piece 262. Multiple insertion holes 251 are arranged on the surface of the T-shaped base 25. When it is necessary to adjust the depth of the T-shaped base 25 inserted into the support base 24, the operator can pull the connecting piece 262, causing the connecting spring 261 to stretch, and simultaneously the pin 263 to be pulled out of the insertion hole 251. Then, the position of the T-shaped base 25 can be adjusted. After adjusting to the appropriate position, the connecting piece 262 is released, and under the elastic force of the connecting spring 261, the pin 263 re-inserts into the corresponding insertion hole 251, thus fixing the position of the T-shaped base 25. This connector 26 design makes the height adjustment of the support leg 2 more precise and stable, ensuring that the support structure maintains good support performance at different heights. For example, at different sampling locations, depending on the terrain and sampling requirements, operators can easily adjust the height of the support leg 2 via the connector 26 to place the support platform 1 at a suitable working height.

[0025] In this invention, a return spring 7 is installed between the two support seats 22. The function of the return spring 7 is to pull the two rotating seats 21 inward. Since the rotating seats 21 and the support seats 22 are rotatably connected, if the ground is uneven when placing the support structure, the support seats 22 may rotate, causing instability in the support structure. The inward pulling force of the return spring 7 can prevent the support structure from collapsing due to the rotation of the rotating seats 21 and the support seats 22, thus enhancing the stability of the support structure. A limiting piece 28 is installed on the surface of the rotating seat 21, and a rotating shaft is installed on the surface of the support seat 22. The rotating shaft passes through to the outside of the rotating seat 21 and is rotatably connected to the rotating seat 21 through a bearing. A fixing piece 27 is installed on the surface of the rotating shaft, and the fixing piece 27 is located on the side of the limiting piece 28 where the other rotating seat 21 is located. When the return spring 7 pulls the two support seats 22 inward, and the support seats 22 and the support platform 1 are in a vertical position, the fixing plate 27 will contact the limiting plate 28 and form a relative limit, preventing the return spring 7 from pulling inward too much and causing the support seats 22 to rotate excessively, thus affecting the normal use of the support structure. This design ensures the stability of the support structure on uneven ground and avoids deformation or damage to the support structure due to excessive tension of the return spring 7. For example, when placing the support structure on uneven ground, the return spring 7 can keep the support structure relatively stable, while the limiting effect of the fixing plate 27 and the limiting plate 28 ensures that the support structure works stably in a vertical position.
