Description

[0001] DRONES WITH SHORT WAVELENGTH MINERAL EXPLORER [0002]

The present invention relates to a drones device for searching for minerals. More specifically, the drones can be moved by a remote control of a user to a region where the drones are difficult to access, And a short wavelength mineral exploration device capable of easily searching for a fluorescent mineral containing useful elements by irradiating ultraviolet rays.

In general, when irradiated with ultraviolet light of a specific wavelength to a mineral called fluorescent mineral, it emits visible light of a distinctive color.

That is, ions (Cr, Ti, U, Mn, Sn, Eu, Dy, Gd, etc.) contained in impurities in certain minerals absorb ultraviolet rays having short wavelengths and convert them to visible light energy Because of this, a unique color is emitted.

At this time, fluorescence does not show a certain color even if it is the same kind of minerals.

For example, pure calcite does not have fluorescence, but when ions other than calcium are contained as impurities, fluorescence such as red, yellow, and pink appears.

As another example, Scheelite is bluish white when it is irradiated with ultraviolet rays of 254 nm in short wavelength, and Scheelite contains about 63.85 wt% of tungsten (W).

In case of Powellite, when irradiated with ultraviolet rays having a short wavelength of 254 nm, it is yellow, while Powellite contains about 47.97% by weight of molybdenum (Mo).

Therefore, by using an ultraviolet mineral resource exploration device, a fluorescent mineral containing a useful element can be easily discriminated.

However, in order to confirm the visible light generated in the fluorescence, it is necessary to block the light from the surrounding environment. Therefore, the conventional ultraviolet mineral resource exploration apparatus is mainly used for exploration of fluorescent minerals in the nighttime or outside the light-blocked tunnel And its use was limited.

However, since most of the exploration is carried out during the daytime, it is necessary to improve the efficiency of exploration of outdoor resources by developing a device capable of identifying fluorescent minerals during the daytime.

In order to solve such a conventional problem, Patent Document 1 has a body portion; An eyepiece coupled to the body portion to penetrate the body portion so that a mineral located at a lower portion of the body portion can be observed at an upper portion of the body portion; An ultraviolet lamp assembly part coupled to the body part to irradiate ultraviolet rays to the mineral; And a darkroom part coupled to a lower surface of the body part so as to surround the eyepiece part and the ultraviolet lamp assembly part and forming an external light shielding space having an opening for opening and closing the lower part of the body part, A plurality of supports arranged to surround the ultraviolet lamp assembly and protruding from a lower surface of the body and rotatably coupled to a lower surface of the body; A light blocking film coupled to the plurality of supports and forming the external light blocking space; And an opening / closing part coupled to the light shielding film and opening / closing an entrance of the external light shielding space.

However, in Patent Document 1, there is a problem that it is inconvenient to carry a mineral exploration apparatus with a dark room in order to search for a mineral in daylight or a bright place.

In addition, since the user has to carry the mineral exploration apparatus and go directly to a location where a mineral to be searched exists, there is a risk of an accident, and in order to record the investigation contents, another storage device such as an image storage medium, There are many cases where there are minerals in places where people can not go directly, so there is a problem that it is difficult to search for the target minerals.

The rotor blade 400 having the above-described structure is coupled to both sides of the drones 100 and communicates control signals with a remote controller C controlled by the user. To enable airborne flight.

The mineral explorer 200 can detect a useful element among the minerals forming the rock 2 by irradiating ultraviolet rays toward the target rock 2 while staying in the air while the dronon device 1 having the short wavelength mineral explorer is flying A light source 211, a photographing unit 212, a collecting unit 213, an ultraviolet filter 214, a measuring device control unit 215 and a power source connector 216 are provided on one body And a searcher case 210 coupled to the support unit 300. [

At this time, the light source unit 211 is equipped with a UV lamp to irradiate ultraviolet rays to the rock 2 to be searched, absorbs ultraviolet rays from the rock 2 to which ultraviolet rays are irradiated, (Referred to as fluorescent minerals) that emit light of different colors depending on the content of the ultraviolet rays and emit ultraviolet rays through the photographing unit 212 and emit light of different colors, thereby searching for specific minerals .

In other words, when a specific mineral is seen, the UV lamp changes the color so that the mineral can be seen. For example, the silicate may change the white or ivory color to yellow and blue, and the knife site to change the white to yellow or pink And ultraviolet (UV) reactions occur mainly in fly ash minerals.

As for the properties and uses of the recycled paper, the recycled paper is chemically very stable and can withstand the dry air, has good thermal conductivity, and has relatively excellent chemical, electrical, magnetic and luminescent properties.

The length of the lens unit 220 may be adjusted so that the distance between the light source unit 211 and the lens may be reduced. So that the irradiation range of the ultraviolet rays emitted from the light source unit 211 can be adjusted to be enlarged or reduced.

The fluorescence mineral reacting with the ultraviolet light emitted from the light source unit 211 is photographed through the photographing unit 212.

The photographing unit 212 is separated from the light source unit 211. The ultraviolet light or the remaining ultraviolet light is absorbed by the fluorescent light among the ultraviolet light irradiated from the light source unit 211 and reflected by the photographing unit 212, An ultraviolet ray filter 214 is provided in front of the photographing unit 212. [

The ultraviolet filter 214 is a filter used to prevent the dispersion phenomenon of light rays generated by ultraviolet rays or blue light existing in sunlight or dust in the air and has little influence on the exposure drainage, It is also used for protection.

That is, the ultraviolet ray or light emitted through the rock 2, which has received the ultraviolet rays irradiated from the light source unit 211, is allowed to pass through the ultraviolet ray filter 214 so that the mineral can be searched without scattering in daylight or light.

The searcher case 210 is provided with a collecting unit 213 for storing mineral data photographed from the rock 2 through the photographing unit 212. After the searching, It is easy to do.
