[0023] 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.

[0024] Example

[0025] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This embodiment proposes a portable soil sampler, including a handle 1, a soil transport pipe 2, a sampling pipe 3, a soil retaining plate 4, a sample collection box 5, a delivery pipe 6, a mounting plate 7, a soil crushing component, and an adjustable connection and positioning mechanism. Compared to existing portable soil samplers, which require tools to remove the sampled soil, resulting in a time-consuming process, this embodiment utilizes an adjustable connection and positioning mechanism to achieve the connection and positioning between the handle 1, sampling pipe 3, and mounting plate 7. This allows operators to adjust the handle 1, sampling pipe 3, and mounting plate 7 according to their needs. The connection and positioning status between the components are adjusted to facilitate sampling by staff or removal of the sampled soil. The soil transport pipe 2 enables the transport of the soil sampled by the sampling pipe 3, facilitating the rapid removal of the soil. Through the cooperation between the soil retaining plate 4, the sample collection box 5, the transport pipe 6, the mounting plate 7, and the soil crushing component, the soil transported by the soil transport pipe 2 is rapidly crushed, and the crushed soil is rapidly transported, thereby enabling the rapid removal of the soil sampled inside the sampler. This speeds up the removal process, allowing the soil to be removed without the need for tools, thus improving work efficiency.

[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the soil transport pipe 2 is installed at the inner ends of the two handles 1. A sampling pipe 3 is sleeved on the outer side of the soil transport pipe 2. Multiple soil retaining plates 4 are installed on the inner bottom wall of the sampling pipe 3. The multiple soil retaining plates 4 are arranged in a ring inside the soil transport pipe 2. The upper side of the soil retaining plate 4 is sloping, with the slope of the soil retaining plate 4 being higher on the inside and lower on the outside, and facing the connection between the sampling pipe 3 and the conveying pipe 6. The crushed sampled soil enters the conveying pipe 6 through the slope side of the soil retaining plate 4. Multiple sample collection boxes 5 are hung on the outer side of the sampling pipe 3 through an L-shaped plate. Multiple conveying pipes 6 are connected to the outer side of the sampling pipe 3. The outlet of the conveying pipe 6 faces the sample collection box 5. The mounting plate 7 is sleeved on the top of the outer side of the sampling pipe 3. A soil crushing component is set on the upper side of the mounting plate 7, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the soil-breaking assembly includes a mounting frame 101 and a soil-breaking blade 102. The mounting frame 101 is mounted on the upper side of the mounting plate 7, and the soil-breaking blade 102 is mounted on the inner top wall of the mounting frame 101. Figure 4As shown, the upper side of the mounting plate 7 is provided with two sets of adjustable connection and positioning mechanisms. Each adjustable connection and positioning mechanism includes an adjustment component and a positioning component. The adjustment component includes a U-shaped guide post 201, a movable plate 202, and a spring 203. The U-shaped guide post 201 is mounted on the upper side of the mounting plate 7, and two movable plates 202 are sleeved on the U-shaped guide post 201. The spring 203 is sleeved on the U-shaped guide post 201, and both ends of the spring 203 are connected to the movable plates 202 located on both sides. Multiple [unclear text - possibly related to openings or openings] are provided on the upper side of the mounting plate 7. The T-shaped groove and the T-shaped block are installed on the lower side of the movable plate 202. The mounting plate 7 limits the movement of the movable plate 202 through the T-shaped groove and the T-shaped plate, thereby ensuring the stability of the movable plate 202 when it moves. The positioning component includes an arc-shaped clamping plate 301, a positioning plate 302 and a spring positioning pin 303. The arc-shaped clamping plate 301 is installed on the upper side of the movable plate 202. The positioning plate 302 is installed on the outer side of both movable plates 202. The spring positioning pin 303 is located on the lower side of the positioning plate 302.

[0027] Working principle:

[0028] The worker inserts the sampling tube 3 into the soil using the handle 1 to collect a sample. After sampling, the worker pulls the sampling tube 3 out using the handle 1. When it's necessary to quickly remove the sampled soil, the worker pulls the spring positioning pin 303 outwards, releasing it from its position on the two positioning plates 302. After this release, the moving plate 202 moves outwards along the U-shaped guide post 201 under the force of the spring 203. The moving plate 202 then moves the arc-shaped clamping plate 301 outwards, releasing it from clamping the handle 1, thus disconnecting the connection between the handle 1, the sampling tube 3, and the mounting plate 7. This allows the sampling tube 3 to move. Then, the staff uses the handle 1 to pull the soil transport tube 2 out of the sampling tube 3. During the extraction process, the soil transport tube 2 carries the sampled soil and moves synchronously. When the soil passes the soil crushing blade 102, the soil crushing blade 102 crushes the soil. The crushed soil enters the conveying pipe 6 through the slope side of the retaining plate 4, and is then transported to the sample collection box 5 by the conveying pipe 6. This achieves rapid extraction of the sampled soil. After extraction, the staff reinserts the soil transport tube 2 into the sampling tube 3, and then connects the handle 1, sampling tube 3 and mounting plate 7 through the adjustable connection positioning mechanism, so that the sampler can be reused.

[0029] 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.
