  • Stacked cone penetrometer testing sounding unit
    Patent number: 12760485
    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure provide a cone penetrometer test sounding system (CPTSS) and methods of operation. The CPTSS comprises an upper clamp and a lower clamp in a vertical orientation such that a rod string may span both the upper and lower clamp assemblies. The upper clamp assembly may work in cooperation with the lower clamp assembly to continuously push the rod string comprising a cone penetrometer into the ground to test the ground soil. The upper clamp assembly may clamp the rod string and push the cone penetrometer into the ground while the lower clamp assembly moves upward while not engaged with the rod string. The lower clamp assembly may then engage the rod string while the upper clamp assembly disengages the rod string, and the lower clamp assembly then pushes the cone penetrometer into the ground in a hand-over-hand method.
