Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of geological research auxiliary instruments, specifically to a rock specimen box. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, rock specimens are widely used in geological surveys, geological scientific research, geological education, and popular science. Rock specimens are important physical data that can directly show the material form of geological resources. However, in actual work, there are no suitable rock specimen boxes for storing and displaying rock specimens. Some are placed in cloth sample bags, while others are placed directly on the table or the ground. This can easily lead to errors in the samples due to disordered storage location and labeling, resulting in incorrect judgments about the geological content.

[0003] Currently, there are some rock specimen boxes on the market that can be used to store rock specimens. However, these boxes lack a design specifically for rock specimens. For example, when taking a rock specimen out of the box, if the rock specimen is too large and occupies most of the box space, only the top surface of the rock specimen is exposed outside the compartment. Therefore, it is difficult to take the rock specimen out of the box directly. Sometimes, it is even necessary to tilt the box to remove the rock specimen from the compartment, which can easily damage the rock specimen. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0018] The principles and features of this utility model are described below. The examples given are only for explaining this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.

[0019] This utility model provides a rock specimen box, including a box body 1 and a box cover 2. The box body 1 is provided with an opening 10 for taking out and placing rock specimens, and the box cover 2 covers the opening 10 of the box body 1.

[0020] The box body 1 and the box lid 2 can be made of durable and wear-resistant plastic materials such as polycarbonate (PC), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer (ABS), polyoxymethylene (POM), polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) or polyether ether ketone (PEEK).

[0021] Example 1: Reference Figure 1 In the rock specimen box of this embodiment, the box body 1 is a cuboid structure, which has a top wall 16, a bottom wall and four sets of side walls connected between the top wall 16 and the bottom wall. The top wall 16 and the four sets of side walls are each separated by a set of edges.

[0022] Here, the side wall facing the user of the rock specimen box is defined as the front side wall 15 of the box body 1. Then, the top wall 16 and the front side wall 15 are connected by a... Figure 1 The opening 10 extends through part of the front side wall 15, with the edge line on the front side of the middle box 1 as the boundary, and the opening 10 also extends through at least part of the top wall 16.

[0023] Specifically, refer to Figure 1 For the front side wall 15 of the box body 1, the opening 10 only penetrates the upper half of the front side wall 15, while the lower half of the front side wall 15 is retained; while for the top wall of the box body 1, the opening 10 may penetrate partially or completely.

[0024] Reference Figure 1The box 1 has several compartments 11 for holding rock specimens. Each set of compartments 11 is at least partially exposed in the opening 10. When taking out or putting out the rock specimen, since at least part of the upper surface and part of the side surface of the rock specimen are directly exposed in the opening, two force points can be directly formed on the upper surface and side surface of the rock specimen, making it easy to take out the rock specimen.

[0025] In one embodiment, refer to Figure 1 The box 1 is also equipped with a label plate 13 for setting labels. The label plate 13 is located above several grids 11. The function of the label plate 13 is to identify the rock specimens in the grids 11 below.

[0026] In one embodiment, when the label plate 13 is fixedly connected to the box body 1 by means of welding, fusion, or integral molding, the label plate 13 can act as the top wall 16 of the box body 1; at this time, since the label plate 13 acts as the top wall 16, refer to Figure 1 The opening 10 penetrates a portion of the top wall 16 near the front side wall 15.

[0027] In addition, to reduce wear and tear on the labels on label plate 13 during use, refer to Figure 1 The height of the label plate 13 can be lower than the upper surface of the box body 1.

[0028] Example 2: Reference Figure 2 Unlike Embodiment 1, in this embodiment, horizontal grooves 17 are provided on the inner walls of the box 1 on both sides of the opening 10. The label plate 13 is slidably inserted into a set of grooves 17 on both sides, that is, the label plate 13 can be completely removed from the box 1. At this time, during the processing of the box 1, the opening 10 completely penetrates the top wall 16 of the upper end face of the box 1. When the label plate 13 is inserted into the groove 17, the label plate 13 can partially replace the function of the top wall 16 in limiting the upper end of the rock specimen in the grid 11.

[0029] Reference Figure 2 When the label plate 13 is pulled out from the box 1, the entire upper surface of the rock specimen in the compartment 11 is exposed in the opening 10. In addition, the upper part of the rock specimen near the front side wall 15 is exposed, which makes it easier to handle the rock specimen.

[0030] Example 3: Unlike Embodiments 1 and 2, in this embodiment, reference is made to... Figure 3 The box body 1 can also be cylindrical, and the lid 2 is designed as a round lid that matches the box body 1. In this case, the box body 1 has a top wall 16, a bottom wall, and a set of annular sidewalls connecting the top wall 16 and the bottom wall. The through part of the opening 10 on the top wall 16 is located on the outer periphery of the disc-shaped label plate 13, and the opening 10 penetrates the upper half of the entire annular sidewall.

[0031] When the box 1 is cylindrical, several grids 11 are arranged in a circular array around the central axis of the box 1.

[0032] In the above embodiments, a plurality of elastic pressure plates 130 may be provided on the periphery of the upper end surface of the label plate 13. The pressure plates 130 are used to press the label placed above the label plate 13. When the label plate 13 is elongated, refer to... Figure 1 The pressure plate 130 is located on both sides of the label plate 13 along its length; when the label plate 13 is circular, multiple pressure plates 130 can be arranged around the center of the label plate 13.

[0033] In the above embodiments, a ring of protrusions 14 is provided on the outer wall of the box body 1, and the lower end of the box cover 2 after closing can abut against the protrusions 14.

[0034] In the above embodiments, the side of the box body 1 and / or the box cover 2 are also recessed with a labeling position for attaching labels. That is, the side of the box body 1 is recessed with a first labeling position 12, and the upper surface of the box cover 2 is recessed with a second labeling position 20. When the rock specimen boxes are stacked and stored, the rock specimens can be distinguished by the labels on the above-mentioned labeling positions, so as to quickly find the target rock sample.

[0035] Example 4: When the lid 2 is directly closed onto the box body 1, the rock sample box may be bumped or dropped, causing the lid 2 to separate from the box body 1, resulting in the rock sample falling out of the box body 1, causing confusion and damage; to avoid the above situation, refer to Figure 4 Based on Embodiment 1, Embodiment 2 or Embodiment 3, in this embodiment, a locking assembly 3 is also connected between the lid 2 and the body 1 to lock the lid 2 onto the body 1.

[0036] When the box 1 is cylindrical, multiple sets of locking components 3 are arranged around the periphery of the box 1.

[0037] When the box 1 is rectangular, the locking assembly 3 is designed in two sets, and the two sets of locking assemblies 3 are set on the left and right side walls on both sides of the front side wall 15 of the box 1.

[0038] Reference Figure 4 The lock assembly 3 includes a lock box 31, an elastic element, and two sets of latches 30. The lock box 31 is mounted on the outer wall of the cover 2. The lock box 31 has a cavity and a guide groove. The two sets of latches 30 are horizontally and relatively slidably mounted on the guide groove of the lock box 31. The lower end of each set of latches 30 extends outwardly with a lock head 300. The elastic element (not shown) is located in the lock box 31. The elastic element is compressed and abuts against the two sets of latches 30. Under the drive of the elastic element, the distance between the two sets of latches 30 reaches its maximum.

[0039] Squeezing the two sets of latches 30 allows both sets of lock heads 300 to be inserted downwards into the notch 140. When the two sets of latches 30 are released, driven by the elastic element, the lock heads 300 on the two sets of latches 30 hook onto the lower end walls on both sides of the notch 140, thereby locking the cover 2 and the box body 1.
