DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] 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.

[0029] See also Figure 1-5 The present invention provides a technical solution for a suspended high-altitude ecological monitoring device: a suspended high-altitude ecological monitoring device, including a monitoring device 1 and used to monitor high-altitude ecology, the monitoring device 1 includes:

[0030] The main assembly 11 includes three circumferentially distributed winches 112 mounted on the top of the base 111;

[0031] The actuator assembly 12 includes a suspension balloon 121 disposed directly above the base 111, a wireless valve 122 connected to the outer wall of the wireless valve 122, a lower load bracket 123 installed at the lower end of the suspension balloon 121, an upper load bracket 124 installed at the upper end of the suspension balloon 121, three circumferentially distributed connecting frames 125 fixed between the upper load bracket 124 and the lower load bracket 123, and the outer wall of the connecting frame 125 is connected to the noose on the winch 112, and landing gears 126 are fixed on both sides of the lower end of the lower load bracket 123;

[0032] The matching component 13 includes a frame 131 disposed on one side of the base 111 and a bottom frame 132 fixed on the top of the frame 131 .

[0033] In this embodiment, when the suspension balloon 121 is filled with helium and floats in the air, the winch 112 is used to lengthen the noose, so that the floating height of the actuator 12 can be adjusted, so that it can enter the airflow at different altitudes and expand the observation range; and the actuator 12 is restrained by the noose in three directions to prevent the actuator 12 from shaking and deflecting in the air.

[0034] Specifically, the matching component 13 also includes a helium tank 133 installed on the top of the base frame 132, a pipeline 134 installed in communication with the helium tank 133, an air pump 135 and an air pump 136 installed on the top of the base frame 132, and a three-way pipe 137 installed between the air pump 135 and the air pump 136.

[0035] In this embodiment, by closing the second valve 1310, opening the first valve 139 and the wireless valve 122, and using the inflation pump 135 to transport the helium in the helium tank 133 through the gas hose 138 to the suspension balloon 121, the balloon 121 is made to float.

[0036] Specifically, the matching component 13 also includes an air supply hose 138 installed between the three-way pipe 137 and the wireless valve 122, a first valve 139 installed between the inflation pump 135 and the pipeline 134, and a second valve 1310 installed between the vacuum pump 136 and the pipeline 134.

[0037] In this embodiment, by closing the first valve 139, opening the second valve 1310 and the wireless valve 122, and using the vacuum pump 136 to pump the helium in the suspension balloon 121 through the first valve 139 to the interior of the helium tank 133, and cooperating with the winch 112 to wind up the noose to lower the actuator 12.

[0038] Specifically, the matching component 13 also includes universal wheels 1312 installed at the four corners of the bottom of the frame 131 and a control cabinet 1311 installed on the top of the bottom frame 132 .

[0039] In this embodiment, the mating component 13 as a whole is convenient to move outdoors through the universal wheels 1312 .

[0040] Specifically, the execution assembly 12 also includes a photovoltaic panel 1211 installed on the upper end of the upper load bracket 124 , a pan-tilt platform 1212 installed in the middle of the lower end of the lower load bracket 123 , and a hyperspectral camera 1213 installed on the pan-tilt platform 1212 .

[0041] In this embodiment, the hyperspectral camera 1213 can capture the spectral reflection or emission characteristics of surface objects in multiple narrow bands, and its coverage range usually extends from visible light to a wide spectral range such as near infrared and even short-wave infrared. This multi-band information can deeply reveal the detailed spectral characteristics of surface objects and provide rich and comprehensive data support for ecological monitoring.

[0042] Specifically, the actuator 12 further includes an atmospheric pressure sensor 127 and an air temperature sensor 128 installed at the right end of the upper load bracket 124 , and a humidity sensor 129 and a wind speed and direction sensor 1210 installed at the left end of the upper load bracket 124 .

[0043] In this embodiment, the atmospheric pressure sensor 127 can sensitively detect the pressure changes exerted by the gas or fluid on the sensing element, and accurately convert these pressure signals into electrical signal outputs, thereby realizing accurate measurement and effective monitoring of the atmospheric pressure. The temperature sensor 128 is used to monitor the temperature changes at high altitudes, and the humidity sensor 129 is used to monitor the humidity changes at different altitudes. The wind speed and direction sensor 1210 sends sound wave pulses and accurately measures the time or frequency difference at the receiving end to work. Since the propagation speed of sound in the air will be affected by the air flow speed in the wind direction, a superposition effect will be produced. Therefore, through precise calculations, the sensor can obtain accurate wind speed and wind direction information; through the atmospheric pressure sensor 127, the temperature sensor 128, the humidity sensor 129, the wind speed and direction sensor 1210 and the hyperspectral camera 1213, the key parameters such as air pressure, temperature, humidity, wind speed and wind direction and spectral characteristics at high altitudes can be fully monitored, providing comprehensive data support for weather forecasting, environmental assessment, ecological protection and scientific research.

[0044] Specifically, the main body component 11 also includes a frame 114 fixed at the top center of the base 111 , an elastic fabric 115 arranged inside the frame 114 , and a plurality of circumferentially distributed springs 116 installed between the outer wall of the elastic fabric 115 and the inner wall of the frame 114 .

[0045] In this embodiment, when the actuator 12 is lowered, it can fall into the frame 114 and be cushioned by the elastic fabric 115 and the spring 116 to reduce the impact on the actuator 12 .

[0046] Specifically, the main body component 11 further includes mounting ears 113 fixed to the four corners of the outer wall of the base 111, and the base 111 is fixed to a desired position through the mounting ears 113 and threaded fixing steel nails or ground nails.

[0047] In this embodiment, by fixing the base 111 on the ground below corresponding to the high altitude position to be detected, the actuator 12 can be raised to the high altitude position to be detected after being floated.

[0048] The working principle and use process of the present invention are as follows: first, the base 111 is fixed to the ground below the high altitude position corresponding to the required detection position by means of the mounting ears 113 and the threaded fixing steel nails or ground nails; and the matching component 13 is moved to one side of the main component 11; then, the second valve 1310 is closed, the first valve 139 and the wireless valve 122 are opened, and the helium in the helium tank 133 is transported to the suspension balloon 121 through the air delivery hose 138 by the air pump 135, so that the balloon 121 floats;

[0049] At the same time, by filling the suspension balloon 121 with helium to make it float, and lengthening the noose through the winch 112, the floating height of the actuator 12 can be adjusted, so that it can enter the airflow at different altitudes and expand the observation range; and the actuator 12 can be restrained by the noose in three directions to prevent the actuator 12 from shaking and deflecting in the air.
