MUMBAI, India, June 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202517049526 A) filed by Nirby Spolka Z Ograniczona Odpowiedzialnoscia, Jasionka, Poland, on May 22, for 'in-ground probe, unmanned system for the probe and method of conducting the soil properties test.'

Inventor(s) include Lazarek, Piotr.

The application for the patent was published on June 13, under issue no. 24/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A soil properties in-ground probe 1 having a tubular body 101, containing a head 106, in the side of which is an inspection hole 107 protected by glass, the head 106 containing elements of a system for carrying out a measurement of soil properties, characterized in that at least one projection, preferably in the form of a blade 105, is located on the outer surface of the body 101 of the probe 1, with at least part of its essential surface contained within a helical surface, preferably rectilinear, determined around the longitudinal axis of the probe 1. Unmanned system 2 for probe 1 characterized in that the probe 1 mounted on the body of the system 2 is positioned perpendicularly to the plane of the soil to be tested. The method for carrying out a soil property test comprising inserting a probe 1 into the soil, characterized in that the probe 1 is delivered by an unmanned system 2 to the measurement site, inserted by a reciprocating motion into the soil, after which the direction of the reciprocating motion is changed and the probe 1 is brought out of the soil, whereby at least one soil property test is carried out when the probe 1 is embedded in the soil, whereby the test is carried out before the probe 1 is brought out of the ground spectroscopically and preferably with non-spectroscopic sensors of the head 106 of the probe 1, whereby during the implementation of the method the probe 1 is embedded in the reciprocating drive mechanism 207 of the unmanned system 2 and the sequences of insertion of the probe 1 into the ground, the measurement sequences and the sequences of bringing the probe 1 out of the ground are repeated cyclically at all predetermined points of ground testing in a given area."

The patent application was internationally filed on Oct. 25, 2023, under International application No.PCT/IB2023/060755.
