Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of soil detection, and particularly relates to a soil temperature and humidity detector for a ground source heat pump system. Background Art

[0002] Soil temperature and humidity refer to the temperature and humidity in the soil below the ground surface, mainly referring to the temperature and humidity in the shallow layer below the ground surface directly related to the growth and development of plants. Soil temperature and humidity affect the growth, development of plants and the formation of soil. All kinds of biochemical processes in the soil, such as the biochemical processes caused by microbial activities and non-living chemical processes, are affected by soil temperature and humidity. Therefore, soil temperature and humidity measurement has a wide range of applications in agriculture, forestry, geology, environment and other aspects.

[0003] At present, the soil temperature and humidity detector can only detect the soil at a relatively shallow depth, and cannot extend the detection probe into the soil at a relatively deep depth for detection. At the same time, only the temperature and humidity data at a certain position can be obtained during the detection, which greatly reduces the detection range and detection quality, and the practicability is poor. Therefore, further improvement is needed. Summary of the Invention

[0033] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0034] Example 1: Refer to Figures 1 to 9 In the embodiment of the present invention, a soil temperature and humidity detector for a ground source heat pump system includes a detection box 1. A rotating cylinder 24 is rotatably installed at the outer position of the bottom of the detection box 1. A driven pulley 20 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the rotating cylinder 24. Fixed frames 10 are symmetrically and fixedly installed at the bottom of the driven pulley 20. A fixed cylinder 9 is fixedly installed between the bottoms of the fixed frames 10. A telescopic square column 8 is slidably installed in the fixed cylinder 9 through a fixed groove 28. The cross-section of the telescopic square column 8 is a rectangular structure and is matched with the cross-section of the fixed groove 28. A detection cylinder 7 is arranged at the bottom of the telescopic square column 8. A detection mechanism is arranged inside the detection cylinder 7. A screw-in mechanism for driving the telescopic detection cylinder 7 to move is arranged on the driven pulley 20, so that the detection cylinder 7 continuously presses into the soil while rotating. A driving mechanism for driving the rotating mechanism to work is also arranged inside the detection box 1.

[0035] In one case of this embodiment, the screw-in mechanism includes a rotating shaft 13 rotatably installed inside the rotating cylinder 24. The outer side of the rotating shaft 13 is connected with an internal thread hole 39 arranged inside the telescopic square column 8 through a threaded area 11. The screw-in mechanism further includes a self-rotation component.

[0036] Among them, the self-rotation component includes locking cylinders 23 symmetrically fixed at the bottom of the driven pulley 20. The locking cylinders 23 are connected with locking columns 26 through locking parts. The locking columns 26 are symmetrically fixed at both sides of the upper end of the detection cylinder 7.

[0037] In addition, in order to ensure that the detection cylinder 7 does not affect its up and down movement while rotating, the locking part includes a locking groove 27 arranged inside the locking cylinder 23 and a locking strip 25 fixed on the locking column 26. The locking strip 25 is slidably arranged inside the locking groove 27.

[0038] The working principle of the above screw-in mechanism: During the self-rotation process of the driven pulley 20, it will drive the locking cylinder 23 to rotate synchronously along the axis position of the driven pulley 20. Then, with the cooperation of the locking part, the fixing plate 22 drives the entire detection cylinder 7 to rotate synchronously. During this process, the rotating shaft 13 also rotates. Then, with the screw fit of the threaded area 11 and the internal thread hole 39, the telescopic square column 8 moves linearly downward along the fixed groove 28 arranged on the fixed cylinder 9. Finally, the rotating detection cylinder 7 moves towards the soil interior direction at the same time, so as to better detect the soil temperature and humidity.

[0039] In addition, in order to effectively ensure the normal movement of the precession mechanism, the driving mechanism includes a driving shaft 15 rotatably installed inside the detection box 1. The end of the driving shaft 15 is connected to the upper end of the rotating shaft 13 through a gear set a 21. The driving shaft 15 is also connected with a transmission shaft 17 rotatably arranged on the detection box 1 through a gear set b 16. A driving pulley 18 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the transmission shaft 17. The outside of the driving pulley 18 is connected to a driven pulley 20 through a belt 19. A detection motor 12 is also installed on the outer wall of the detection box 1, and the output end of the detection motor 12 is connected to the driving shaft 15.

[0040] The detection motor 12 drives the driving shaft 15 to rotate. On the one hand, it drives the transmission shaft 17 to rotate under the action of the gear set b 16. Then, under the cooperation of the driving pulley 18 and the belt 19, the driven pulley 20 rotates synchronously, ultimately ensuring the dual precession movements of the rotation and linear motion of the detection cylinder 7.

[0041] In one case of this embodiment, the detection mechanism includes a soil storage cylinder 32 fixed inside the detection cylinder 7. A plurality of detection grooves 43 are uniformly arranged on the side wall of the soil storage cylinder 32. A detection shaft 29 is rotatably installed in the upper and lower regions between the outer wall of the soil storage cylinder 32 and the inner wall of the detection cylinder 7. A plurality of detection needles 30 that cooperate with the detection grooves 43 are installed on the detection shaft 29. A temperature and humidity sensor 31 is installed on the detection needle 30. The detection mechanism also includes a control component for changing the angle of the detection shaft 29.

[0042] Among them, the control component includes control seats 35 symmetrically fixed at the outer wall position of the upper end of the detection cylinder 7. A control shaft 37 is rotatably installed between the control seats 35. A control handle 38 is fixedly installed at one end of the control shaft 37. A control spiral tooth 36 is also arranged on the control shaft 37, and the control spiral tooth 36 meshes with a control worm gear 34 fixed at the top of the detection shaft 29.

[0043] After the detection cylinder 7 collects the soil, rotate the control handle 38, so that the control shaft 37 drives the control spiral tooth 36 to rotate. Then, it meshes with the control worm gear 34 to drive the detection shaft 29 to rotate. Then, the detection needle 30 drives the temperature and humidity sensor 31 to pass through the detection groove 43 and enter the soil inside the soil storage cylinder 32 to detect the temperature and humidity of the soil at different depths, so as to obtain the temperature and humidity of the soil at different depths where the ground source heat pump system is located. The whole operation process is fast and convenient, and is worthy of popularization and use.

[0044] In order to quickly read the temperature and humidity parameters obtained by the temperature and humidity sensor 31, in this embodiment, an output interface line 33 is provided inside the control shaft 37. One end of the output interface line 33 is electrically connected to the temperature and humidity sensor 31, and the other end extends to the outside of the detection cylinder 7 and is detachably and electrically connected to an input interface line 4. The input interface line 4 is electrically connected to the reading display screen 3 fixed on the outer wall of the detection box 1. After the temperature and humidity sensor 31 is controlled to enter the soil at the corresponding depth, the output interface line 33 is plugged into the input interface line 4, and then the temperature and humidity at the corresponding depth are obtained under the action of the reading display screen 3.

[0045] At the same time, a battery pack 14 is installed inside the detection box 1. The battery pack 14 is used to supply power to the electrical equipment involved inside the entire detector. Armrest frames 2 are symmetrically installed on the outer wall of the detection box 1 to facilitate the staff to perform detection operations on the entire detector.

[0046] Embodiment 2: In another embodiment of the present invention, the difference between this embodiment and the above embodiment is that, further, a soil discharging mechanism is included.

[0047] The soil discharging mechanism includes a gas guiding ring 41 fixed at the middle position of the upper end of the detection cylinder 7. The gas guiding ring 41 is in communication with a gas guiding hole 40 provided at the upper end of the detection cylinder 7. A fixing plate 22 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the telescopic square column 8. A gas guiding cylinder 42 is installed on the fixing plate 22. The upper end of the gas guiding ring 41 is rotatably arranged inside the gas guiding cylinder 42. A gas guiding pipe 6 is communicated and installed on the outer wall of the gas guiding cylinder 42. The gas guiding pipe 6 is in communication and cooperation with a gas pressure pump 5 fixed on the detection box 1.

[0048] After the detection is completed, the gas pressure pump 5 is started, and high-pressure gas is continuously input into the gas guiding cylinder 42 through the gas guiding pipe 6. Then, through the mutual cooperation between the gas guiding pipe 6 and the gas guiding hole 40, the high-pressure gas is introduced into the soil storage cylinder 32. Then, the previously sampled cylindrical soil is pressed downward under the action of the high-pressure gas, accelerating the separation action of the soil inside the soil storage cylinder 32.

[0049] To sum up, first, the staff inserts the detection cylinder 7 into the corresponding soil through the armrest frame 2, then starts the detection motor 12, and then makes the detection mechanism work under the action of the driving mechanism. Finally, the temperature and humidity of the soil at different depths in the corresponding area are obtained. After the detection is completed, the detection motor 12 is started in reverse, then the gas pressure pump 5 is started, and then under the action of the soil discharging mechanism, the previously sampled soil is discharged into the original sampling area, thus avoiding the need for manual filling and further ensuring the use quality of the detector.

[0050] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
