[0020] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] See also Figure 1-8The present invention provides a technical solution: a real-time monitoring device based on smart agriculture, comprising a column 1, a connecting block 14 is fixedly installed under one side surface of the column 1, a slide groove 15 is opened on one side surface of the connecting block 14, a screw rod 16 is vertically rotatably connected to the inner side of the slide groove 15, the top of the screw rod 16 extends to the upper side of the outer end of the connecting block 14, the surface of the screw rod 16 is threadedly connected to a connecting rod 17, the connecting rod 17 is slidably arranged inside the slide groove 15, a soil parameter sensor module 18 is fixedly installed on the end of the connecting rod 17, and a humidity probe 19, a temperature probe 20 and an EC value probe 21 are sequentially connected to the bottom of the soil parameter sensor module 18.

[0022] In this embodiment, the connecting block 14 is driven vertically within the chute 15 by rotating the screw rod 16. The movement of the connecting block 14 drives the soil parameter sensor module 18 at the end to rise and fall. The soil parameter sensor module 18 drives the humidity probe 19, temperature probe 20, and EC value probe 21 at the bottom to be inserted into the soil. The humidity probe 19 measures the moisture content in the soil, converting it into a quantifiable electrical signal to help farmers understand the degree of soil moisture. This is crucial for irrigation management, preventing over-irrigation or under-irrigation, thereby improving water resource utilization efficiency and crop growth quality. The temperature probe 20 measures soil temperature, which has a significant impact on crop growth. Different crops have different temperature requirements. By monitoring soil temperature, farmers can adjust the timing and amount of irrigation and fertilization, optimize the crop growth environment, and improve yield and quality. The EC value probe 21 measures the electrical conductivity of the soil, reflecting the soil's salt content. This helps farmers understand the soil's salinity and take appropriate measures to adjust irrigation and fertilization plans, prevent salinization, and ensure healthy crop growth.

[0023] Specifically, a main control box 8 is fixedly mounted on one side of the column 1 , and an air temperature and humidity sensor 11 is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the main control box 8 .

Through the light sensor 13, farmers can ensure that crops receive sufficient light, thereby improving photosynthesis efficiency and promoting healthy crop growth. The carbon dioxide sensor 12 can monitor the carbon dioxide concentration in the farmland in real time, helping farmers understand the gas exchange of crops, thereby adjusting ventilation strategies and improving the photosynthetic efficiency of crops. By timely replenishing or discharging carbon dioxide, the yield and quality of crops can be significantly improved.

The control module 9 enables remote monitoring, configuration, and upgrades of agricultural monitoring equipment. Through the IoT platform, managers can view the equipment's operating status in real time, adjust parameters, and even perform firmware upgrades to ensure it is always in optimal working condition.

The output end of the reducer 29 is fixedly connected to one end of the fixed shaft 27, and one side shaft core of the reducer 29 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 30.

[0032] The motor 30 drives the reducer 29 to operate, and the operation of the reducer 29 can drive the fixed shaft 27 and the gear 28 to rotate. The rotation of the gear 28 can drive the support rod 3 to rise and fall through the tooth groove 301, so that it can be used for detection of crops at different heights.
