The displacement sensor will detect the moving distance of the sampling scraper in the detection rod. The controller calculates the depth of the sampling scraper in the soil according to the data of the displacement sensor and the initial height of the sampling scraper. When the sampling scraper moves to the appropriate depth, the controller closes the solenoid valve in the air pipe, and the air is The air no longer flows into the sampling box, the piston plate and the detection rod no longer move downward, and the controller starts the push-pull electromagnet, which pulls the sampling scraper to rotate outward, and the sampling scraper rotating outward will be inserted into the soil. The controller starts the rotating motor, and the rotating motor drives the detection rod and the sampling scraper to rotate. The rotating sampling scraper will scrape off the soil around the detection rod, and the scraped soil will flow into the detection groove along the sampling groove. The soil moisture detection sensor will detect the moisture content of the soil falling into the detection groove, and the soil moisture conditions at any depth can be detected more accurately, which solves the problem that the existing soil moisture detection station cannot extract soil samples deep in the field, resulting in poor accuracy of the detection results.

The soil sample flows out along the sample outlet groove. At the same time, a micro air pump sends air into the detection groove through a guide tube. The high-speed air spray will blow away the residual soil in the detection groove, thereby cleaning the soil sample in the detection rod, solving the problem that the residual soil sample inside the existing soil moisture detection station is inconvenient to clean, which is easy to affect the next detection result.
