Abstract |
The present disclosure provides an automatic push corer system including a base, a power group, a Geneva transmission group, an intermittent transmission group, a vertical coring transmission group, a clamp group and a coring group. The power group is used to drive the Geneva transmission group. The Geneva transmission group is configured to perform a first intermittent rotary motion. The intermittent transmission group is configured to perform a second intermittent rotary motion. The vertical coring transmission group is configured to cooperate with the second intermittent rotary motion to perform a third intermittent rotary motion. The clamp group is configured to cooperate with the third intermittent rotary motion to perform a lifting reciprocation. The coring group is configured to cooperate with the first intermittent rotary motion and the lifting reciprocation to respectively complete a coring operation and a tubing replacing operation. Therefore, the automatic push corer system may use a single power source to complete positioning and coring operations on the marine sediment.
