Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a tree ring sampling tool, specifically a convenient tree ring growth cone. Background Technology
[0002] Tree growth cones are commonly used sampling tools in the study of tree ring hydrothermal climatology. During tree ring sample collection, the sampling direction sometimes needs to be specified depending on the research content and objectives. To achieve accurate sampling direction, a mobile phone or compass is often used to confirm the correct direction before each sampling, which can negatively impact efficiency and accuracy. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a tree ring growth cone that can quickly and accurately determine the sampling direction. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to propose a tree ring growth cone that can quickly and accurately locate the direction.
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is achieved as follows: a convenient tree ring growth cone includes a growth cone body, the growth cone body includes a cone tube and a rotating handle, the rear part of the cone tube is snapped into the middle part of the rotating handle, and a retaining seat is provided at the upper end of the middle part of the rotating handle, on which a compass is fixedly installed.
[0005] Furthermore, the compass and the card slot use a quick-release plug-in connection.
[0006] Furthermore, the lower part of the compass has a plug, and the card holder has a socket.
[0007] By implementing the above technical solution, the direction can be quickly and accurately located according to the needs during sampling, thereby improving the accuracy and efficiency of the operation. Attached Figure Description
[0008] The specific structure of this utility model is given in the following figures and embodiments: Figure 1 This is a top view of the structure of Embodiment 1 of this utility model; Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the main structure of Embodiment 1 of this utility model; Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the main view structure of the compass in Embodiment 1 of this utility model; Figure 4 This is a top view of the card holder in Embodiment 1 of this utility model.
[0009] Legend: 1. Tapered tube, 2. Rotating handle, 3. Card holder, 4. Compass, 5. Plug, 6. Socket. Detailed Implementation
[0010] This utility model is not limited to the following embodiments, and the specific implementation method can be determined according to the technical solution of this utility model and the actual situation.
[0011] Example: Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a convenient tree ring pointing cone includes a cone body, which comprises a cone tube 1 and a rotating handle 2. The rear part of the cone tube is engaged with the middle part of the rotating handle. A retaining seat 3 is provided at the upper end of the middle part of the rotating handle, and a compass 4 is fixedly installed on the retaining seat. This application provides a compass on the rotating handle of the cone body, which enables quick and accurate orientation during tree ring sampling, improving work efficiency.
[0012] like Figure 1 As shown, the compass and the mounting bracket use a quick-release connection. This allows the compass to be quickly removed after the direction is confirmed, without affecting the rotation of the handle, while also protecting the compass and extending its lifespan.
[0013] The compass has a plug 5 at its lower part and a socket 6 on its base. This structural design is similar to a power plug and socket, allowing for quick plugging and unplugging and improving efficiency.
[0014] The above description is merely an example for clearly illustrating the present invention, and is not intended to limit the implementation of the present invention. Any obvious variations or modifications derived from the technical solutions of the present invention are still within the protection scope of the present invention.
