AI Technical Summary
In the existing technology, it is difficult for drones equipped with spectral acquisition systems to obtain high-quality crop spectral data in the field. Furthermore, self-propelled vehicles have difficulty maintaining a level position on uneven terrain, making it difficult for the spectral camera to be directly aimed at the object being measured. At the same time, water vapor and strong winds in the field environment affect the accuracy of spectral acquisition.
A field crop spectrum acquisition device was designed. The spherical base and spherical structure keep the spectral camera vertical. Combined with a spherical cover and an electric hot air blower defogging mechanism, the lens of the spectral camera is clear during the acquisition process, and the protective tube reduces the impact of strong winds.
It improves the accuracy and efficiency of spectral acquisition, solves the problem of interference from the field environment on spectral data, and ensures stable acquisition by the spectral camera in complex environments.

[0028] The upper end of the vertical support 4 is provided with a pressing mechanism 9 for positioning the ball 6, which comprises an electric cylinder 90, a lifting plate 91, a base plate 92 and a pressing plate 93. The electric cylinder 90 is installed at the upper end of the vertical support 4 and its output end is connected to the lifting plate 91. The upper end of the base plate 92 is fixed with a plurality of guide columns 95 which are slidingly connected to the lifting plate 91, and the upper end of the guide column 95 is limited by a nut.

In order to facilitate the movement of the connecting rod one 11, the lower end of the vertical support 4 is also provided with a guide hole 40 for the movement of the connecting rod one 11.
[0032] In the embodiment, in order to improve the positioning effect of the pressing plate 93, a rubber anti-skid pad 94 is arranged on the inner wall of the pressing plate 93.
[0033] In the embodiment, in order to reduce the light pollution to the spectrum acquisition, the surfaces of the platform body 1, the independent walking mechanism 2, the lateral support 3 and the vertical support 4 are sprayed with black or gray finish, so as to reduce the reflectivity of the above-mentioned structures.

[0035] The working process and principle of the present application are as follows:
[0036] The independent walking mechanism 2 is used to travel to the target area, and then remains stationary for a period of time, so that the spectrum camera 8 shaken during walking is stabilized and finally kept in a vertical state, at this time, the two spherical covers 120 are in a closed state, then the electric heating fan 128 is remotely controlled to open and blow hot air into the air chamber of the spherical cover 120, and then the hot air is blown to the lens of the spectrum camera 8 through the exhaust hole 125 to remove the fog, at this time, the protective cylinder 13 is at the highest point; after the fog removal is completed, the electric heating fan 128 is closed, the electric cylinder 90 is started and drives the pressing plate 93 to move downward until the pressing plate 93 contacts and tightly presses the spherical body 6, in this process, the lifting plate 91 drives the two spherical covers 120 to open by means of the connecting rod one 11, so that the spectrum camera 8 is in an acquisition state, at this time, the protective cylinder 13 is lowered to the lowest point under the action of the connecting rod two, and a protective barrier can be formed around the crops, so as to reduce the adverse effects of strong wind on the image acquisition process; then the acquisition of the crop spectrum data is carried out, after the acquisition is completed, the electric cylinder 90 drives the pressing plate 93 to move upward and reset, at the same time, the spherical cover 120 is also closed, and a collection process is completed.
