DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. 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 creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0027] See also Figure 1-5In an embodiment of the present invention, a probe of an intelligent monitoring device for fish conditions in a breeding ship warehouse includes a movable track 11, a probe body 17 and a sliding seat 18 for installing the probe body 17. A signal transmitting end 25 is provided on the surface of the probe body 17 opposite to the sliding seat 18. The sliding seat 18 is fixed to the movable track 11 by bolts. The movable track 11 is connected and fixed to a fixing frame by a sliding assembly. The movable track 11 is connected to a displacement driving member for driving it to move along the sliding assembly. The movable track 11 is driven to slide by the displacement driving member. The probe body 17 at the end of the movable track 11 will continuously adjust the detection position, thereby greatly improving the detection range, so that the monitoring accuracy can be improved as needed;

[0028] When used for a long time, the surface of the probe body 17 will be covered with a large amount of impurities, which will affect the subsequent detection. Based on this, a cleaning component for cleaning impurities attached to the surface of the signal transmitting end 25 is also provided between the sliding seat 18 and the mounting seat 13;

[0029] The cleaning assembly includes a side slide groove provided on the side of the sliding seat 18, a guide slider 22 is slidably fitted in the side slide groove, one side of the guide slider 22 is connected and fixed to the inner wall of the side slide groove by a side spring, and under the action of the side spring, the guide slider 22 will be pressed and contacted with the inner wall of the side slide groove, a longitudinal slide groove 21 is provided at the upper end of the guide slider 22, a longitudinal slider is slidably fitted in the longitudinal slide groove 21, one side of the longitudinal slider is connected and fixed to the inner wall of the longitudinal slide groove 21 by a longitudinal spring, a transmission gear 23 is fixedly provided at the upper end of the longitudinal slider, a non-slip layer for increasing friction is provided on the side of the transmission gear 23, and the sliding path of the transmission gear 23 interferes with the surface of the driven gear ring 27;

[0030] The cleaning assembly further includes a driven gear ring 27 disposed on the outside of the probe body 17, the driven gear ring 27 is rotatably disposed on the upper end of the sliding seat 18, the inner side of the driven gear ring 27 is connected to the sliding seat 18 via a plurality of elastic members, wherein the elastic members are telescopic springs or elastic ropes, a cleaning rod 26 is mounted on the upper end of the driven gear ring 27, the cleaning rod 26 is L-shaped, and the brush surface of the cleaning rod 26 is in press contact with the surface of the signal transmitting end 25;

[0031] The mounting seat 13 is provided with a toggle member for toggling the guide slider 22 to slide along the side slide groove. When the movable track 11 slides along the sliding assembly, the toggle member drives the guide slider 22 to slide along the side slide groove. At this time, the transmission gear 23 presses against the surface of the driven gear ring 27, thereby driving the driven gear ring 27 to rotate. When the driven gear ring 27 rotates, the cleaning rod 26 rotates together, thereby cleaning the surface of the signal transmitting end 25. When the transmission gear 23 presses against the surface of the driven gear ring 27, the transmission gear 23 slides along the longitudinal slide groove 21 along with the longitudinal slider, thereby bypassing the driven gear ring 27, effectively improving the pressing transmission time with the driven gear ring 27.

[0032] When the guide slider 22 completely passes the driven gear ring 27, the driven gear ring 27 will rotate in the opposite direction under the action of the elastic member, thereby driving the cleaning rod 26 to clean the surface of the signal transmitting end 25 again, thereby preventing the signal transmitting end 25 from being covered with impurities, effectively ensuring the accuracy of monitoring;

[0033] The toggle member includes a connecting rod 16, one end of which is rotatably connected to the surface of the mounting seat 13, and the other end of the connecting rod 16 is provided with a toggle plate 15 for toggling the guide slider 22. Positioning plates 19 are symmetrically provided on the surfaces of the mounting seat 13 on both sides of the connecting rod 16, and each positioning plate 19 is connected and fixed to the connecting rod 16 by a return spring 20. When the toggle plate 15 is pressed and contacted with the guide slider 22, as the guide slider 22 slides to the extreme position of the side slide groove, the connecting rod 16 will drive the return spring 20 to be compressed, so that the toggle plate 15 avoids the guide slider 22, so that the sliding seat 18 can continue to slide;

[0034] The surfaces of the sliding seat 18 and the probe body 17 are provided with an anti-corrosion layer 24 to increase the service life of the device;

[0035] The displacement drive member includes a rack 12 arranged on the surface of the movable track 11 and a mounting seat 13 arranged on the fixed frame, a driving motor 14 is installed on the mounting seat 13, and an output end of the driving motor 14 is provided with a driving gear 30 meshing with the rack 12. Under the action of the driving motor 14, the driving gear 30 will mesh with the rack 12, thereby driving the movable track 11 to move along the sliding assembly. The driving motor 14 is a servo motor, which is convenient for controlling the position of the signal transmitting end 25;

[0036] The sliding assembly includes a detection groove 28 opened on the surface of the movable track 11. The cross-section of the detection groove 28 is trapezoidal. A detection slider 29 is slidably fitted in the detection groove 28. The other end of the detection slider 29 is provided with a connecting end connected to a fixed frame. With the cooperation of the detection slider 29 and the detection groove 28, the movable track 11 can slide smoothly.

[0037] The working principle of the present invention is: in actual use, the movable track 11 is driven to slide by the displacement driving member, and the probe body 17 located at the end of the movable track 11 will continuously adjust the detection position, thereby greatly improving the detection range, so that the monitoring accuracy can be improved as needed. When the movable track 11 slides along the sliding assembly, the toggle member drives the guide slider 22 to slide along the side sliding groove. At this time, the transmission gear 23 will press against the surface of the driven gear ring 27, thereby driving the driven gear ring 27 to rotate. When the driven gear ring 27 rotates, the cleaning rod 26 will rotate together, thereby cleaning the surface of the signal transmitting end 25, thereby ensuring the monitoring quality of the probe.
