[0038] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present invention and the features in the embodiments may be combined with each other.
[0039] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, but they are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0040] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, based on the above problems existing in the prior art, a crop root accompanying soil detection device is provided, comprising:
[0041] A sensor assembly 100, the sensor assembly 100 comprises a sensor housing 101 and a wireless transmission module 102, a control module 103, a power supply module 105 and a plurality of sensor probes 104 arranged inside the sensor housing 101, the wireless transmission module 102, the power supply module 105 and the plurality of sensor probes 104 are respectively connected to the control module 103, the plurality of sensor probes 104 extend from the sensor housing 101 and are evenly distributed around the sensor housing 101, the plurality of sensor probes 104 are used to detect a plurality of soil parameters, and the control module 103 is used to send the detected soil data containing the plurality of soil parameters to a data processing platform through the wireless transmission module 102;
[0042] The companion base 200 is buried at a first preset depth from the ground surface. A driving component 201, a transmission component 202, a box 203, and a lifting component 204 arranged in the box 203 are arranged inside the companion base 200. The driving component 201 is connected to the lifting component 204 in the box 203 through the transmission component 202. The box 203 is fixedly connected to the sensor component 100 arranged outside the companion base 200.
[0043] The driving component 201 is used to control the lifting component 203 through the transmission component 202 under the control instruction issued by the data processing platform, so as to drive the box 203 and the sensor component 100 on the box 203 to perform lifting and lowering movements.
[0044] Specifically, the sensor housing 101 is made of waterproof and corrosion-resistant materials to ensure stable operation in complex soil environments. Inside the housing, a wireless transmission module 102, a control module 103, a power supply module 105 and a plurality of sensor probes 104 are installed. A plurality of sensor probes 104, such as sensor probes for soil moisture, soil temperature, soil pH, soil conductivity, etc., extend evenly from the sensor housing 101, and the tips are sharp to reduce resistance when inserted into the soil. The wireless transmission module 102 uses a built-in antenna with low power consumption and long-distance communication to ensure that soil data can be stably transmitted to the data processing platform. The control module 103 serves as a core processor, which is used to receive soil parameter signals from each sensor probe 104, perform preliminary processing and packaging, and then send them through the wireless transmission module 102. The power supply module 105 is powered by a rechargeable battery to ensure long-term operation of the device.
[0045] The accompanying base 200 is buried at a first preset depth (e.g., 65 cm) from the ground surface, and is ensured to be stable and not shaken by pre-buried fixings. Inside the base, the driving component 201 uses an efficient and silent motor or hydraulic device, and its output end is connected to the lifting component 204 in the box 203 through a transmission component 202 (e.g., a gear set, chain, or belt), ensuring smooth and efficient power transmission and reducing energy loss.
[0046] The box 203 is the carrier of the sensor assembly 100, and is made of light and high-strength materials, which not only ensures sufficient bearing capacity, but also reduces the overall weight, making it easy to lift. The box 203 and the sensor assembly 100 are fixedly connected by fasteners to ensure that the two move synchronously during the lifting process without relative displacement.
[0047] When the data processing platform sends a control instruction to the driving component 201 according to agricultural management requirements or real-time data analysis results, the driving component 201 starts immediately after receiving the instruction and drives the lifting component 204 to work through the transmission component 202. The lifting component 204 adopts a telescopic rod 2041, a main screw 2042 and other structures to realize the lifting and lowering of the box 203 and the sensor component 100 thereon, thereby realizing soil detection at different depths along with the growth of the crop root system.
[0048] As a preferred embodiment, the sensor probe 104 includes one or more combinations of a pH value detection probe, a conductivity detection probe, a temperature detection probe and a humidity detection probe.
[0049] Specifically, the sensor probe 104 includes but is not limited to the use of a pH detection probe, a conductivity detection probe, a temperature detection probe, and a humidity detection probe. According to actual application requirements, a single type of probe can be selected for measurement, such as configuring only a pH detection probe to monitor the pH of water quality; multiple probes can also be combined, such as integrating a pH detection probe and a conductivity detection probe at the same time to simultaneously obtain water quality pH and ion concentration information; further, in order to comprehensively evaluate the soil environmental conditions of crops, pH, conductivity, temperature and humidity detection probes can be combined into one. Through this comprehensive sensor probe 104, comprehensive, real-time, multi-parameter monitoring of the target environment or medium can be achieved to ensure the comprehensiveness and accuracy of the data.
[0050] Furthermore, the device can automatically sleep under extreme conditions (such as low temperature environment) based on the soil temperature parameters monitored by the temperature detection probe, and notify the data processing platform or server, effectively extending the service life of the equipment and saving energy.
[0051] As a preferred embodiment, the top of the sensor housing 101 is streamlined.
[0052] Specifically, the top middle of the sensor housing 101 is streamlined, and the streamlined top can reduce soil resistance. At the same time, the upper shell of the housing is made of high-strength material to ensure that obstacles such as soil can be pushed away when necessary, making the sensor smoother during movement.
[0053] Furthermore, the wireless transmission module 102 is located above the control module 103, which is beneficial to the transmission and reception of wireless signals, reduces signal interference, and improves the stability and efficiency of data transmission.
[0054] The power supply module 105 is located below the control module 103, which balances the overall weight and facilitates the access and management of the power line, thereby ensuring that the sensor can work continuously and stably.
[0055] As a preferred embodiment, the sensor probe 104 extends downward from the sensor housing 101 until it is flush with the bottom of the sensor housing 101; or
[0056] The sensor probe 104 extends downward from the sensor housing 101 to protrude from the bottom of the sensor housing 101 .
[0057] Specifically, the sensor probe 104 extends downward from the sensor housing 101 , and its length is flush with or slightly protrudes from the bottom of the sensor housing 101 , so that the sensor can be closely attached to the measurement surface during measurement, thereby improving the measurement accuracy.
[0058] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the overall radial width of the sensor assembly 100 is 75 mm and the height is 120 mm, and the structure is compact and small, which reduces the requirement for installation space.
[0059] As a preferred embodiment, a through hole matching the box body 203 is provided on the top of the companion base 200 .
[0060] Specifically, the through hole serves as a lifting channel for the box 203, and the size of the through hole is completely matched with the size of the box 203. The box 203 is installed inside the accompanying base 200, and can be freely lifted and lowered through the through hole.
[0061] In this embodiment, the driving component 201 uses a motor as a power source. The motor is also connected to a control board, which is used to receive remote commands issued by the data processing platform, parse and execute the commands, and adjust the running state of the motor according to actual monitoring needs.
[0062] In this embodiment, the outer shell of the companion base 200 adopts a sealed chamber to effectively isolate the internal mechanical components from the external environment, so as to protect the internal motor, transmission components, control panels and other mechanical components from the influence of adverse factors such as dust, thereby extending the service life of the equipment.
[0063] In this embodiment, the transmission assembly 202 can be composed of a main rotating wheel 2021 and a secondary rotating wheel 2022, so as to realize the transmission of power. When the motor is started, the secondary rotating wheel 2022 is driven to rotate by the main rotating wheel 2021, and then the power is transmitted to the main screw 2042 of the subsequent lifting assembly 204, so as to drive the sensor assembly to perform lifting motion, which has the advantages of simple structure, high transmission efficiency, stable operation, etc.
[0064] As a preferred embodiment, wherein Figure 5 As shown, the lifting assembly 204 includes:
[0065] A main screw 2042, the main screw 2042 is fixedly connected to the transmission assembly 202, and the transmission assembly 202 is used to drive the main screw 2042 to rotate;
[0066] The telescopic rod 2041, the internal thread of the telescopic rod 2041 is meshed with the external thread of the main screw 2042, and the telescopic rod 2041 is fixedly connected to the box 203, and is used to convert the rotational motion of the main screw 2042 into the linear motion of the telescopic rod 2041 to drive the box 203 and the sensor assembly 100 on the box 203 to perform lifting and lowering motion.
[0067] Specifically, in this embodiment, the telescopic rod 2041 and the main screw 2042 are connected and cooperated, and the main screw 2042 is fixedly connected to the transmission assembly 202, and rotates with the rotation of the transmission assembly 202; the telescopic rod 2041 is engaged with the external thread of the main screw 2042 through its internal thread, converting the rotational motion into linear motion, thereby driving the box 203 and the sensor assembly 100 to move up and down, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the mechanical movement.
[0068] The working principle of the accompanying base 200 is to drive the main rotating wheel 2021 and the auxiliary rotating wheel 2022 through a motor to achieve spiral rotation according to the remote instructions issued by the data processing platform; as the auxiliary rotating wheel 2022 rotates, the main screw 2042 rotates accordingly, thereby controlling the extension or contraction of the telescopic rod 2041. The movement of the telescopic rod 2041 drives the sensor assembly 100 to rise or fall freely in the soil to meet the monitoring needs of different depths.
[0069] In this embodiment, the speed and direction of the motor and the telescopic distance of the telescopic rod 2041 can be set according to the remote command issued by the data processing platform. Through the fixed length conversion of the gear stepper motor, it not only provides a high degree of flexibility, but also enables the base to freely adjust the depth of the sensor according to specific monitoring needs, such as the root length of the crop and the soil conditions, so as to achieve accurate monitoring of the soil environment. The telescopic range of the telescopic rod 2041 can be accurate to 2 cm, achieving accurate control of the range and ensuring monitoring accuracy.
[0070] Through the mechanical structure and control strategy of the present invention, it is ensured that the sensor can work stably under various soil conditions according to the root length of the crop system, providing high-quality soil monitoring data for modern agriculture.
[0071] As a preferred embodiment, the lifting assembly 204 is used to drive the box 203 and the sensor assembly 100 on the box 203 to perform lifting movement between a first preset depth and a second preset depth;
[0072] The second preset depth is less than the first preset depth.
[0073] In this embodiment, in order to cover the monitoring needs at different stages of crop growth, the first preset depth is preferably 65 cm, ensuring that the entire device can be buried deep in the soil when the crops are not planted, thereby avoiding any potential impact on subsequent planting operations; it can also ensure that the sensor can collect and analyze the basic parameters of the soil in advance without interfering with crop planting, providing preliminary preparation for the healthy growth of crops.
[0074] In this embodiment, the second preset depth is preferably 20 cm to meet the needs of real-time monitoring of the soil environment around the root system after crop planting.
[0075] Furthermore, during the crop planting stage: as the crop planting operation is completed, the data processing platform will promptly send control instructions to the motor. After receiving the instructions, the motor will raise the box 203 and the sensor assembly 100 from the first preset depth (65 cm underground) to the second preset depth (20 cm underground) through the lifting assembly 204, so as to conduct detailed detection of the soil environment around the crop roots and provide basic data for subsequent root growth monitoring.
[0076] During the crop growth stage, as the crop roots continue to grow and take root, the data processing platform will adjust the working state of the lifting assembly 204 according to the monitored root growth data. The sensor assembly 100 will gradually descend from the second preset depth (20 cm underground) to a deeper layer of soil, such as 30 cm, to continuously monitor soil conditions and adapt to plant growth needs. This dynamic adjustment process ensures that the sensor can always be close to the root activity area to provide accurate soil parameter monitoring.
[0077] During the crop harvesting stage, before the crops are about to enter the harvesting period, the data processing platform will issue instructions again to retract the sensor component 100 from the current depth to the first preset depth (65 cm underground), thereby completing the monitoring task of a crop growth cycle.
[0078] By introducing the adaptive accompanying lifting and lowering control soil monitoring technology, the flexibility and adaptability of the device during crop growth are improved, ensuring the continuity and depth of soil parameter monitoring. At each stage of crop planting, growth and harvesting, the sensor can be intelligently adjusted according to actual needs, providing strong data support for precision agriculture and crop health management.
[0079] As a preferred embodiment, the control module 103 includes:
[0080] A first receiving unit, used for receiving a crop growth cycle monitoring task issued by a data processing platform;
[0081] A processing unit, connected to the first receiving unit, for generating a monitoring instruction according to the monitoring task, and sending the monitoring instruction to the plurality of sensor probes;
[0082] A second receiving unit, connected to the plurality of sensor probes and the processing unit, respectively, for receiving soil data;
[0083] The uploading unit is connected to the processing unit and the wireless transmission module respectively, and is used to periodically send the soil data to the data processing platform; and send the soil data to the data processing platform in real time according to the collection instructions issued by the data processing platform.
[0084] Specifically, the monitoring tasks include but are not limited to monitoring time, monitoring parameters (such as soil pH, conductivity, temperature, humidity, etc.) and monitoring frequency.
[0085] After receiving the monitoring task, the processing unit generates corresponding monitoring instructions according to the preset algorithm or logic. These instructions include instructions for starting the sensor probe, setting the data acquisition frequency, etc., and are sent to multiple sensor probes through the internal bus or communication interface; then, the second receiving unit is used to receive the soil data sent back from the sensor probe, including real-time soil pH value, conductivity, temperature, humidity and other key parameters.
[0086] The upload unit has two working modes:
[0087] Timed automatic collection mode: It can automatically upload soil data to the data processing platform at a fixed time to ensure the continuity and real-time nature of data collection. The time interval for data upload can be adjusted according to monitoring requirements and network environment. Preferably, after the device is turned on, data is uploaded three times continuously at an initial interval of 3 minutes to facilitate installation and debugging, and then uploaded at the set time interval;
[0088] On-demand manual collection mode: According to the collection instructions issued by the data processing platform, soil data is sent to the platform in real time to meet immediate needs.
[0089] Furthermore, no matter which collection method is selected, the collection instructions use Beidou satellite communication technology to achieve long-distance and stable data transmission. Specifically, the instructions are first sent to the Beidou gateway, which uses its long-distance wireless communication capabilities to distribute the data transmission tasks to the crop root-associated soil detection device.
[0090] During data transmission, all data is encrypted using national secret algorithms to ensure data security.
[0091] In Beidou satellite communications, two modes are provided to adapt to different application scenarios:
[0092] Card insertion mode: Enables active satellite communication to ensure real-time data transmission and meet applications with high requirements for immediacy.
[0093] Card-free mode: Using satellite passive communication, data acquisition is random but still reliable, suitable for occasions where real-time data transmission is not required.
[0094] In this embodiment, each crop root system soil detection device has a unique code based on the SIM card to ensure the accuracy of device identification and data attribution. The accuracy and security of the monitoring data are ensured through the unique coding system and data encryption transmission mechanism of the device.
[0095] In this embodiment, the device provides a user-friendly operation interface, and simplifies the power-on and power-off operation process by setting a simple power on and off button. The device also has a remote device management function, supports remote upgrade of device programs and remote restart of devices, and enhances the maintainability and stability of the device.
[0096] The present invention also provides a crop root system-associated soil detection system, comprising a data processing platform and at least one crop root system-associated soil detection device as described above, which is communicatively connected to the data processing platform, and further comprising:
[0097] The data processing platform is used to send crop growth cycle monitoring tasks to the crop root accompanying soil detection device according to the crop type, and receive feedback of soil data; and monitor the crop growth cycle according to the soil data and crop type.
[0098] As a preferred embodiment, the data processing platform further includes:
[0099] The prompt and warning module is connected to the user terminal and is used to output warning information to the user terminal when the soil parameters are monitored to exceed the preset range; and is used to output prompt information to the user terminal according to the stage of the crop growth cycle and the soil parameters.
[0100] Specifically, the system is equipped with an early warning function. When the monitored soil environmental parameters exceed the preset range, the system automatically sends an early warning message to the mobile phone so that timely measures can be taken.
[0101] Further, such as Figure 6 As shown, the overall system architecture is divided into user layer, application layer, command layer and collection layer.
[0102] The user layer includes base managers, back-end managers and farmers, who can view soil data anytime and anywhere through mobile phones or computers, and formulate agricultural production plans based on data analysis results.
[0103] As a data processing platform, the application layer provides advanced functions such as crop soil data analysis. It can deeply analyze soil data and provide scientific decision-making support, greatly improving the efficiency and accuracy of crop management.
[0104] The command layer uses Beidou gateway for communication, and can establish a stable connection with Beidou satellites in both active communication mode (through card insertion) and passive communication mode. Beidou satellites receive instructions or data relayed from ground stations, and then transmit the information to the agricultural monitoring platform through its widely covered satellite network. Through this efficient and reliable communication mechanism, the system of the present invention can respond to environmental changes in a timely manner, provide strong data support for precision agriculture, and promote the development of agricultural modernization.
[0105] The collection layer includes the above-mentioned crop root accompanying soil detection device. The platform communicates seamlessly with the sensor assembly 100 and the accompanying base 200 through long-distance wireless communication technology, ensuring the reliability and stability of the entire communication link. The design of this closed-loop system ensures that data collection and transmission can be carried out without obstacles regardless of the environment, thereby realizing real-time and continuous monitoring of the crop growth environment and displaying soil data in an intuitive and easy-to-understand form.
[0106] The present invention realizes comprehensive monitoring of soil environment through high-precision and real-time data collection combined with advanced data processing algorithms. The system provides accurate decision support for the agricultural field through intelligent data analysis, aiming to improve crop production efficiency, optimize resource management, reduce production costs, and promote the transformation of agriculture towards intelligence and precision to meet the needs of sustainable development of modern agriculture.
