Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of agricultural monitoring, in particular to a monitoring device. Background Art

[0002] Farmland ditches are the lifeblood of agriculture. They are the connecting vessels for water flow between farmland and rivers, ponds, lakes and reservoirs. They not only play the role of drainage and irrigation, but also the path that pollutants in agricultural drainage must pass through before entering the water body. They are in a key position to block the process of agricultural non-point source pollution. Ecological ditches are ground drainage channels that use plant measures or plant measures combined with engineering measures to protect the bottom and walls of the ditch. Compared with traditional masonry drainage ditches, ecological ditches have the advantages of low cost, good landscape effect, high ecological benefits, and are conducive to drainage and waterlogging, reducing nitrogen and phosphorus pollution, and improving the water and soil environment. In addition, in addition to the drainage function, it can also be used to store water in the dry season, like a small mobile reservoir surrounding farmland. The ecological ditch construction project is the only landmark project with Zhejiang's distinctiveness that has been fully implemented in Zhejiang Province across the country.

[0003] Many ecological ditches that have been built so far are unable to carry out the subsequent operation and maintenance work in a timely and reasonable manner due to the lack of professional knowledge of the management personnel, resulting in garbage accumulation, rampant growth of aquatic plants, and damage to the purification modules, which has weakened or lost the purification capacity of most ecological ditches, and even caused many problems such as secondary pollution of water bodies. The reason is that ecological ditches are a "three-point construction and seven-point management" project. Currently, there are no companies in the market that operate and maintain ecological ditches, and more people use manual inspection and maintenance. Human operation and maintenance is time-consuming and costly, and ditch operation and maintenance work is labor-intensive and costly. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an ecological ditch remote comprehensive monitoring device, which can automatically collect the status data of the ecological ditch at a relatively low cost, realize the automatic monitoring function of the ecological ditch, save human resources, improve the scientific management of the ecological ditch, and meet the drainage needs of modern farmland.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model is implemented by the following technical means:

[0006] A remote integrated monitoring device for an ecological ditch comprises a plurality of visual monitoring units arranged at intervals, characterized in that the visual monitoring unit comprises a rotating support rod and a camera assembly fixed on the rotating support rod; the integrated monitoring device also comprises a water flow detection assembly buried at the bottom of the ditch and a communication assembly installed on the rotating support rod, the water flow detection assembly comprises a flow velocity detector and a multi-parameter water quality detector, and the camera assembly, the flow velocity detector and the multi-parameter water quality detector are communicatively connected with the communication assembly.

[0007] In large-scale ecological farmland construction projects, farmland is often divided into multiple blocks in both horizontal and vertical directions by ecological ditches, which is convenient for scientific planning of crop experimental projects. Therefore, multiple ecological ditches are often arranged in a criss-cross pattern. Therefore, visual monitoring units are often set up at intervals according to actual needs, and are located at the horizontal and vertical intersections of ecological ditches. Each visual monitoring unit is responsible for image acquisition of multiple sections of multiple ecological ditches within its management scope.

[0008] Each visual monitoring unit consists of a rotating support rod and a camera assembly installed on the rotating support rod. Multiple rotating support rods are arranged at intervals, and the bottom of the rod can be fixed on the top of one side of the ecological ditch. The camera assembly is composed of an optical camera or an infrared camera, which is used to continuously collect characteristic images of the ecological ditch. The characteristic image contains information such as the amount of aquatic plants growing in the ecological ditch and the accumulation status of debris. The camera assembly is installed at a point close to the top of each rotating support rod. A rotating platform is installed at the top of the rotating support rod, and the camera assembly is fixed on it. It can be driven by the rotating platform to rotate horizontally, thereby collecting characteristic image samples of multiple ecological ditches, thereby expanding the management scope of a visual monitoring unit as much as possible.

[0009] At the bottom of the ecological ditch, multiple water flow detection components are installed. Each water flow detection component is fixed to the bottom of the ditch in a pre-buried manner. The part exposed to the soil is equipped with a flow rate detector and a multi-parameter water quality detector. The flow rate detector can detect the water flow rate and promptly detect the interruption or excessive water flow in a specific ditch; the multi-parameter water quality detector can measure multiple water quality parameters at the same time. For example, the YSI6920V2-2 multi-parameter water quality monitor can be used. Multiple parameters such as dissolved oxygen, conductivity, ammonium nitrogen, pH, etc. can be collected through the detection probe, so that the comprehensive monitoring device can obtain multi-dimensional parameter monitoring capabilities, thereby analyzing the soil nutrient status of the farmland and providing data support for scientific operation and maintenance.

[0010] The flow rate detector, multi-parameter water quality detector and camera assembly are all electrically connected to the communication assembly through a data transmission line. The communication assembly is a data transceiver management device in the prior art. It is installed and fixed on the rotating support rod, away from the water body, and obtains power supply from the visual monitoring unit. It is equipped with a network switch and a processor and other devices. It communicates with the remote data platform in the distance through wired transmission and sends all monitoring data to it. The remote data platform runs a background database and analysis and operation software, which can store and analyze data. For example, according to the image information, it can find the abnormal part (such as excessive growth of aquatic plants, garbage blockage or damage to the purification module). Therefore, only a small number of operation and maintenance personnel are needed to obtain and monitor the situation of the entire ecological ditch in the background, which greatly saves human inspection resources and gives the operation and maintenance work anytime and high frequency. It can improve the scientific management of ecological ditches, meet the drainage needs of modern farmland, and realize the automatic monitoring and operation and maintenance functions of ecological ditches.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the rotating support rod comprises a rod body and a horizontal rotating seat rotatably mounted on the top end of the rod body, and the camera assembly is connected to the horizontal rotating seat.

[0012] Therefore, the main body of the camera assembly is a hemispherical camera, which usually has a shooting angle of 180° and can cover the space directly below and around the camera. In order to collect characteristic image samples of multiple ecological ditches and expand the management scope of a visual monitoring unit as much as possible, a horizontal rotating seat is set, which can drive the hemispherical camera to rotate when it makes a 360° surround movement in the horizontal direction, thereby expanding its characteristic image collection range.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the communication component includes a box and a network switch installed in the box, and the network switch is wiredly connected to the multiple camera components and the multiple water flow detection components.

[0014] Therefore, the box is made of alloy, which has waterproof and sun-proof protection functions, and is equipped with a network switch, which is a switch device in the prior art, and has multiple network cable sockets. Each network switch can connect multiple camera components and water flow detection components through network cables, that is, not every visual monitoring unit is equipped with a network switch, which can save costs. Each network switch can be connected to a remote data platform through wired transmission to send data to it.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, the water flow detection component also includes a waterproof shell for providing protection for the flow rate detector and the multi-parameter water quality detector, and the waterproof shell includes an anchoring portion, and the anchoring portion is used to fix the waterproof shell in the ecological ditch.

[0016] Therefore, the water flow detection component has a waterproof shell, and the flow rate detector and the multi-parameter water quality detector are both installed in the waterproof shell. The waterproof shell has an opening for the detection terminals of the flow rate detector and the multi-parameter water quality detector to be exposed, and the opening is waterproof and sealed. The waterproof shell includes an anchoring part, which is used to fix the entire flow rate detector in the ecological ditch to ensure that it will not be washed away and displaced by the water flow. The anchoring part can be realized by a bolt in the prior art with a fixing hole, or an inclined plug, which is deeply inserted into the bottom soil layer of the ditch to achieve fixation, and can be flexibly adjusted according to the installation position of the flow rate detector.

[0017] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the upper surface of the waterproof shell is shuttle-shaped.

[0018] Therefore, by setting the upper surface of the waterproof shell to be shuttle-shaped and making the shuttle-shaped extension direction consistent with the water flow direction, the impact force on the waterproof shell in the water flow can be reduced, the stability of its position can be ensured, and the probability of debris hanging on it can be reduced.

[0019] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a lighting assembly is also connected to the rotating support rod, and the lighting assembly includes an LED light group and an extension rod connected to the LED light group at one end and connected to the rotating support rod at the other end.

[0020] Therefore, in order to realize the all-weather monitoring mission capability of this kind of visual monitoring unit and avoid the problem of waterlogging in the experimental farmland due to the blockage of ecological ditches at night and not being discovered, it is necessary to provide auxiliary lighting at night. Therefore, a lighting component is set up, which is achieved by an LED light group installed on an extension pole. The extension pole can increase the illumination range of the LED light group; in addition, the lighting component can also provide night lighting for the farmland, reduce the setting of additional street lights, and facilitate night patrols by farmland managers.

[0021] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, an auxiliary power component is also installed on the rotating support rod, and the auxiliary power component includes a photovoltaic panel installed on the rod body of the rotating support rod and an energy storage battery pack arranged in the box body.

[0022] Therefore, in order to reduce the waste of power resources, an auxiliary power component is installed on the rotating support rod, which is realized by photovoltaic panels and energy storage batteries. When the light conditions are sufficient during the day, the photovoltaic panels will store the acquired electricity in the energy storage battery. At night, this part of the stored electricity can be used to power the LED light group, realizing the effective use of clean energy.

[0023] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a lightning rod is also installed on the rotating support rod, and the lightning rod is used to introduce lightning into the underground soil layer.

[0024] Therefore, since the location where the rotating support rod is installed is usually an open area, in order to avoid damage and failure of electronic devices thereon due to lightning strikes in thunderstorms, a lightning rod is installed on the rotating support rod to introduce lightning into the underground soil layer and protect the entire device.

[0025] In summary, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0026] 1. Through the camera component on the visual monitoring unit and the water flow detection component at the bottom of the channel, the water body data of the ecological ditch can be collected from multiple angles, and the actual water flow in the ecological ditch can be comprehensively analyzed from the macro-static and micro-dynamic perspectives. With the help of the communication component, the operation and maintenance personnel can monitor all ecological ditches conveniently and efficiently and grasp the real-time status.

[0027] 2. By setting a horizontal rotating seat on the rotating support rod and installing the camera assembly thereon, the camera assembly can realize ° surround image acquisition, thereby expanding the monitoring range of each visual monitoring unit.

[0028] 3. By designing the waterproof shell into a shuttle shape, the fixed position of the water flow detection component in the channel can be stabilized, and the probability of debris attachment can be reduced, which is conducive to its continuous and stable operation.

[0029] 4. By adding auxiliary power components and using photovoltaic panels and energy storage battery packs to store and release energy, the dependence of the entire visual monitoring unit on the mains network can be reduced, saving electricity resources. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
