(33) The above-described two ways of placing can also be realized by the following methods:

(34) 1) Four regular triangle surfaces of the regular tetrahedron are respectively provided with a unique straight line that connects an angle, a surface geometric center and a midpoint of an opposite edge (i.e., the corresponding base). The regular tetrahedron is disposed with one surface facing upwards (i.e., the above-described main triangle surface), a connection line of the tetrahedron geometric center and the geometric center of this surface is vertically upward and defined as a vertical shaft (also called a main shaft) of the omnidirectional vector geophone, and is also a first line vector axis, direction of the above-described straight line that is disposed on the surface facing upwards is defined as a from-north (also called a first direction) of the omnidirectional vector geophone. The angle on the first side surface that is met when sliding anticlockwise along an arris (i.e., a bottom edge) that vertically crosses the from-north points to a midpoint of an opposite arris in a direction which is defined as a second direction, and the angle on the second side surface that is met when sliding clockwise along an arris that vertically crosses the second direction points to a midpoint of an opposite arris in a direction which is defined as a third direction, and the angle on the third side surface that is met when sliding anticlockwise along an arris that vertically crosses the third direction points to a midpoint of an opposite arris in a direction which is defined as a fourth direction.

(35) On each of directional lines along the above-described four directions, a high-sensitivity wide band full tilt detector whose working direction is vertical to the regular triangle surface is installed by moving from the center of each regular triangle surface to the angle and the arris by a (wherein, 0<a</4, is wavelength).

(37) On each of directional lines along the above-described four directions, a high-sensitivity wide band full tilt detector whose working direction is vertical to the regular triangle surface is installed by moving from the center of each regular triangle surface to the angle and the arris by a (wherein, 0<a</4, is wavelength).

(38) The wave detector in the embodiment can at least be a cylindrical electromagnetic type wave detector, which needs to satisfy: a distance from a bottom surface of each cylindrical electromagnetic type wave detector to the tetrahedron geometric center of the regular tetrahedron is a minimum value by which the wave detectors do not contact with each other; or may be a flat sheet capacitor type wave detector. Of course, the wave detector may also be other types of wave detectors as long as it can operate normally in the omnidirectional vector geophone, and this is not limited in the invention.

(40) FIG. 8 is a schematic diagram of parallel vectors based on an embodiment of the invention. As shown in FIG. 8, in a smooth continuous wave field, the distance is far less than a sum of dot products of two parallel vectors of the wavelength with the wave field that is divided by 2, and is equal to a dot product of a vector at a middle position with the wave field.

(41) FIG. 9 is a space vector relationship diagram of an omnidirectional vector geophone based on an embodiment of the invention. As shown in FIG. 9, the individual arrows indicate a working vector on each surface. The circle in FIG. 9 indicates an inner tangent sphere that is enclosed by eight space vectors of the omnidirectional vector geophone.

(42) A plurality of wave detectors having directivities shown in FIG. 1 are combined based on in a space vector direction as shown in FIG. 1, namely a space vector relationship shown in FIG. 9, which can have the function of an omnidirectional space vector. Such structure has functions of detecting a space line vector, a curl vector and divergence.

(43) FIG. 10 is a structural schematic diagram of total integral equivalent Gaussian divergence based on an embodiment of the invention, FIG. 11 is a structural schematic diagram of stokes' integral positive and negative curl equivalence based on an embodiment of the invention. It can be seen from the vector relationship as shown in FIGS. 10 and 11 that:

(44) Based on Divergence Gaussian theorem:

(45) $\underset{V}{}\mathrm{div}\mathrm{Adv}=S_{}A.Math.\mathrm{ndS},$
a divergence formula of the omnidirectional vector geophone in the embodiment of the invention can be obtained:

(46) $\underset{V}{}\mathrm{div}\mathrm{Adv}=S_{}A.Math.\mathrm{ndS}=\frac{1}{m}\underset{i=1}{\overset{m}{.Math.}}A.Math.n_i.$

(47) Based on Curl Stokes' formula:

(48) $\underset{s}{}\mathrm{rot}A.Math.\mathrm{dS}=\underset{s}{}\mathrm{rot}A.Math.\mathrm{ndS}=A.Math.\mathrm{dl},$
a positive curl formula of the embodiment can be obtained as:

(49) $\underset{S}{}\mathrm{rot}\mathrm{AdS}=A.Math.\mathrm{dl}=\frac{1}{m}\underset{i=1}{\overset{m}{.Math.}}A.Math.{\stackrel{.Math.}{l}}_i,$
as well as an anti-curl formula:

(50) 0$-\underset{S}{}\mathrm{rotAdS}=-A.Math.\mathrm{dl}=\frac{1}{m}\underset{i=m+1}{\overset{2m}{.Math.}}A.Math.{\stackrel{}{l}}_i.$

(51) Wherein, A is a wave field function, l is a detector response vector, i is an inner trace serial number of the detector, trace(i)=A.Math.{right arrow over (l)}.sub.i is the collected internal trace data of the ith trace, on the above-described total integral equivalent Gaussian divergence structure: {right arrow over (l)}.sub.i is a first group, i=1-4, {right arrow over (1)}.sub.i is a second group, i=5-8. div indicates divergence, rot indicates curl, V indicates volume, dv indicates differential volume, S indicates area, dS indicates differential of area, m indicates the number of a regular m-hedron; n.sub.i indicates a wave response vector on a normal of the ith surface. Based on the trigonometric and differential product formulas, on the specific structure,

(52) $\stackrel{.fwdarw.}{l_i}+\stackrel{.fwdarw.}{l_{m+i}}=\stackrel{.fwdarw.}{l_i}+\stackrel{}{l_i}=2n_i.$

(53) It is necessary to explain that, the omnidirectional vector geophone provided by the invention is a four-equational stereo-space equilibrium structure that is formed based on four shafts of a virtual regular tetrahedron (i.e., a stereo star-shaped shaft formed by connection lines of the tetrahedron center of the regular tetrahedron and centers of four regular triangle surfaces). A distance from a bottom surface of each wave detector to the tetrahedron center is denoted as d, and d is a minimum value by which the units and devices do not contact with each other, two high-sensitivity wide band full tilt detectors are installed on each regular triangle surface of the regular tetrahedron to be parallel to the shaft, and its amplitude response has a relationship with a working shaft thereof and an angle between wave field normals as below: out(t)=A(t)cos , wherein A(t) denotes response of the detector to the wave field when =0.

(54) In the omnidirectional vector geophone, detectors on each regular triangle surface that are close to the corners belong to A group, detectors that are close to the arris (i.e., opposite edge) belong to B group, the A or B group of detectors spatially form a closed loop that conforms to the Curl Stokes' formula. The A group of output is positive curl, and the B group of output is negative curl.

(55) An arithmetic sum of two wave detectors on the same regular triangle surface is equivalent to a wave detector at the center of each regular triangle surface in the case that a is smaller than /4, four measurement vectors that point to the tetrahedron center of the regular tetrahedron are formed, which is completely consistent with the requirement of the Gaussian divergence formula.

(56) In this embodiment, the stokes' curl structure and the Gaussian divergence structure are combined perfectly, thus a total vector seismic measurement spatial structure with curl combined with divergence is formed.

(57) The omnidirectional vector geophone includes eight wave detectors, the A and B groups of wave detectors output totally eight tracks of data. FIG. 12 is a schematic diagram of actually measured output of an omnidirectional vector geophone based on an embodiment of the invention. As shown in FIG. 12, four output results of the above first circuit correspond to a first group of curl as shown in FIG. 12, and four output results of the above second circuit correspond to a second group of curl as shown in FIG. 12. Sum of the first group of curl and the second group of curl is zero, and difference between the first group of curl and the second group of curl is bi-curl. Curl vector direction of the omnidirectional vector geophone is determined by One-spin-to-Two right-hand rule, a total curl vector direction can be calculated by vector operation. A vibration line vector can be obtained by calculating redundant vectors, and is equal to a vibration line vector calculated by a traditional three-component wave detector. By applying the method of solving a shear wave vibration line vector by curl, a pure shear wave line vector can be solved, and a pure pressure wave vibration line vector can be obtained by reducing the pure shear wave line vector from total vibration line vector.

(58) Specific structure of the omnidirectional vector geophone has been described in detail in the above, in practical application process, in order to facilitate placement, a conical tail cone is connected on a support structure of the omnidirectional vector geophone, an extension line of an axis of the conical tail cone passes through one vertex of the regular tetrahedron and vertically penetrates through the center of one of the surfaces of the regular tetrahedron. In normal use process, the conical tail cone is vertically inserted downwards into the ground, so as to be fixed.

(59) The omnidirectional vector geophone can also be provided with a spherical shell which is divided into an upper-half spherical shell and a lower-half spherical shell. Eight wave detectors and the support structure are placed inside the spherical shell, the lower-half spherical shell is provided with a tail cone hole at the bottom, and the above tail cone passes through the tail cone hole of the lower-half spherical shell. FIG. 13 is a schematic diagram of spherical shell appearance of an omnidirectional vector geophone based on an embodiment of the invention. As shown in FIG. 13, the spherical shell of the omnidirectional vector geophone is divided into an upper-half spherical shell 20 and a lower-half spherical shell 21. A conical tail cone 30 connected on the support structure of the omnidirectional vector geophone passes through a tail cone hole 31 that is disposed at the bottom of the lower-half spherical shell 21. By the preferable embodiment, the wave detector can be protected to stabilize the omnidirectional vector geophone.

(60) In order to put the support structure and the eight wave detectors thereon of the omnidirectional vector geophone stably in the spherical shell, shape of the support structure can be designed into a shape that can be put into the spherical shell easily. FIG. 14 is a schematic diagram of appearance of an omnidirectional vector geophone based on an embodiment of the invention. As shown in FIG. 14, the vertexes of the support structure of regular tetrahedron shape are cut off by a piece such that the support structure can be easily placed in the spherical shell to ensure accuracy of the collected data of the omnidirectional vector geophone.

(61) In consideration of fixation of the upper-half spherical shell and the lower-half spherical shell, the embodiment provides a preferable embodiment, namely: the upper-half spherical shell and the lower-half spherical shell are respectively provided on edges thereof with projections that are matched with each other, the projections of the upper-half spherical shell and the lower-half spherical shell are fixed by a fixing assembly, for example, being fixed by a screw and a screw hole. Thus stability of the omnidirectional vector geophone in practical operation process can be ensured.

(62) For a signal output line of the omnidirectional vector geophone, a signal line hole can be provided on the spherical shell such that the signal output line of the wave detector passes through the signal line hole, so as to be convenient for the signal output line to be output to outside of the shell to effectively obtain the data.

(63) In order to avoid water flooding into the omnidirectional vector geophone to effect use, waterproof may be sealed at the joint gap between the upper-half spherical shell and the lower-half spherical shell of the spherical shell, the tail cone hole and the signal line hole, for example, silica gel or rubber materials may be selected for sealing, so as to improve sealing performance of the omnidirectional vector geophone.

(64) The omnidirectional vector geophone provided by the invention may be applied in the following aspects: land based artificial seismic exploration and natural seismic detection. The invention has the following application prospect: the omnidirectional vector geophone based on the invention can detect curl of seismic wave and can obtain vibration direction and real amplitude of the wave field, can decompose out pure pressure and shear waves, and thus can obtain abundant seismic wave information never seen before, thereby laying a new data base for exploration and research of earth science.

(65) Divergence and curl features of the omnidirectional vector geophone are features of a wave detector with a rigid support structure that is placed on free surface of the earth's surface. When the wave detector is placed underground or inside a medium, these features are determined by a placement environment, material of the support structure of the wave detector and its contact relationship with the external world. These features can be designed depending on change of the specific application purpose. This will not be described in detail in the invention.

(66) Application of the omnidirectional vector geophone in seismic wave detection is a completely new idea of seismic wave detection method, which can develop a completely new idea of multi-dimensional, processing and interpretation method, and form a completely new series of seismic exploration technologies, not just a new technology of improving signal-to-noise ratio, sensitivity and fidelity. Further research and application of the technology will discover more technical characteristics, and belongs to a completely new technical field of invention, discovery and development.
