Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to wetland resource monitoring auxiliary equipment, belonging to the technical field of wetland environment monitoring equipment. Background Art

[0002] Wetlands, forests and oceans are known as the three major ecosystems on Earth. Wetlands play an irreplaceable and important role in resisting floods, regulating climate, conserving water resources, degrading pollutants, responding to climate change, maintaining the global carbon cycle and protecting biodiversity. They are known as the "kidneys of the earth", "treasure house of species" and "carbon storage reservoir". They are important strategic resources and scarce resources for ensuring national ecological security and sustainable economic and social development.

[0003] Wetland ecosystem monitoring can track wetland health in real time, identify potential problems promptly, and provide managers with a scientific basis for formulating appropriate conservation measures. By monitoring wetland water quality, soil, biodiversity, and other aspects, we can better understand the ecological status of wetlands, assess the impact of human activities on wetlands, and take appropriate measures to mitigate or eliminate these impacts.

[0004] In order to monitor data such as soil moisture and wind speed above the soil in the wetland system, inspectors need to be stationed for a long time to conduct inspections. This is not only troublesome, but also a test for the inspectors in the long run.

[0005] Soil moisture is generally detected using a soil moisture detector. The soil moisture data can be detected by inserting the probe on the moisture detector into the soil. However, testers often forget to clean the probe before use, resulting in inaccurate test data. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a wetland resource monitoring auxiliary device, which improves the problem in the prior art that the soil moisture detector is not cleaned before use, resulting in inaccurate measurement data.

[0007] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is achieved by adopting the following technical solutions: A wetland resource monitoring auxiliary device includes a frame, the frame is provided with A soil moisture detection device, comprising a detection probe; a driving source, the soil moisture detection device being connected to the driving source, the driving source being capable of driving the detection probe to move vertically and insert into the soil; The wiping mechanism includes two sets of wiping assemblies arranged opposite to each other, each wiping assembly including wiping pieces. The two wiping pieces are in contact with each other, and the detection probe can enter between the two wiping pieces for cleaning. The wiping pieces are rotatably connected to the frame. When the detection probe moves toward the soil surface, the two wiping pieces can rotate and separate to allow the detection probe to pass through the wiping pieces. The linkage assembly is linked to the wiping piece and the driving source. When the detection probe moves toward the soil surface, the driving source can drive the two wiping pieces to separate from each other through the linkage assembly.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the detection probe is driven by the driving source to be inserted into the soil to detect the moisture data in the soil, realizing the de-manual operation. Even if no one is in the wetland system, the moisture data of the wetland soil can be monitored; Before being inserted into the wetland soil, the detection probe enters between two mutually fitting wiping pieces. The wiping pieces clean the detection probe and improve the accuracy of the humidity data. After the detection probe is wiped, the driving source drives the two wiping pieces to separate through the linkage assembly to avoid interference with the insertion of the detection probe into the soil. The driving source drives the wiping pieces to move through the linkage assembly, without the need for an additional driving source, saving energy and ensuring reliability in field environments.

[0009] The present invention is further configured as follows: a cleaning assembly is also provided on the frame, and the cleaning assembly includes a cleaning piece, which is movably arranged on the frame. During the process of the detection probe moving toward the soil surface, the cleaning piece can abut the soil and rotate to clear the surface soil under the detection probe.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, since there is a significant difference in moisture between the soil surface and the deep soil layer, in order to reduce errors and improve data accuracy, before the detection probe is inserted into the soil, the cleaning piece can abut against the soil and rotate to remove the surface layer of soil under the detection probe.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that: the linkage assembly is linked to the cleaning piece, and during the process of the detection probe moving toward the soil surface, the driving source can drive the cleaning piece to abut against the soil and rotate through the linkage assembly.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the driving source drives the cleaning member to move through the linkage assembly, without the need for an additional driving source, saving energy consumption and ensuring reliability in a field environment.

[0013] The present invention is further configured as follows: the linkage assembly includes a driving gear and a mating gear, a connecting shaft is provided between the driving source and the soil moisture detection device, the driving gear is rotatably connected to the connecting shaft, a connecting rod is provided on the wiping member, the mating gear is rotatably connected to the frame and connected to the connecting rod, and after the detection probe moves a specified distance toward the soil surface and enters between the two wiping members, the driving source can drive the driving gear to engage with the mating gear, so that the two wiping members rotate and separate.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the driving source drives the two wiping members to rotate and separate from each other through the engagement of the driving gear and the matching gear, and the detection probe can be inserted between the two wiping members for cleaning before the engagement of the driving gear and the matching gear.

[0015] The present invention is further configured as follows: a sliding sleeve is provided on the connecting shaft, and an annular sliding groove is opened on the side wall of the connecting shaft along its own axial direction, and the sliding sleeve is slidably positioned in the sliding groove along the axial direction of the connecting shaft; the driving gear is provided on the sliding sleeve so that the driving gear slides axially relative to the connecting shaft, and the sliding sleeve is located at the lower end of the sliding groove under the action of gravity. In the process of the detection probe moving toward the soil surface, the driving gear abuts the mating gear and drives the sliding sleeve to move toward the upper end of the sliding groove. When the sliding sleeve abuts the upper end of the sliding groove, the driving gear meshes with the mating gear and rotates.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, when the connecting shaft moves downward toward the soil surface, after the driving gear abuts against the mating gear, the gears become stationary due to the resistance of the gears themselves, and the sliding sleeve is driven to move upward relative to the connecting shaft. At this time, the detection probe can still enter the wiper for a distance, thereby achieving a better cleaning effect. When the sliding sleeve abuts against the upper end of the sliding groove, the sliding sleeve becomes stationary relative to the connecting shaft, and the driving gear and the mating gear begin to mesh and separate the two wipers.

[0017] The present invention is further configured as follows: the cleaning assembly also includes a cleaning rod, both ends of the cleaning rod are respectively connected to the cleaning piece and the connecting shaft, and the driving source can drive the cleaning piece to abut the soil surface; the cleaning rod is rotatably connected to the connecting shaft, and the cleaning rod has an abutment slope, and the sliding sleeve is provided with an abutment block located below the abutment slope, and in the process of the sliding sleeve moving toward the upper end of the sliding groove, the abutment block abuts against the abutment slope, so that the sliding sleeve drives the cleaning piece to rotate and take away the surface soil under the detection probe.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, when the sliding sleeve moves toward the upper end of the sliding groove, the abutment block abuts the inclined surface to rotate the cleaning member.

[0019] The present invention is further configured as follows: a protective sleeve is provided on the frame, one end of the protective sleeve is open toward the soil surface, and the soil moisture detection device is located in the protective sleeve.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the protective sleeve plays a protective role on the soil moisture detection device.

[0021] The present invention is further configured as follows: a solar panel is provided on the frame, and the solar panel is electrically connected to the driving source.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the solar panels provide green energy for the driving source.

[0023] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: The detection probe is driven by a driving source to be inserted into the soil to detect the moisture data in the soil, realizing the de-manual operation. Even if there is no one in the wetland system, the moisture data of the wetland soil can be monitored. Before inserting the detection probe into the wetland soil, it enters between two mutually contacting wiping pieces. The wiping pieces clean the detection probe, improving the accuracy of the humidity data. After the detection probe is wiped, the driving source drives the two wiping pieces to separate through the linkage assembly to avoid interference with the detection probe's insertion into the soil. The cleaning piece can abut the soil and rotate to remove the surface layer of soil under the detection probe, preventing the soil surface with different humidity levels from affecting the detection results, thereby improving data accuracy. The driving source controls the movement of the soil moisture detection device, the wiping member and the cleaning member through the linkage assembly, so that the detection is efficient, energy-saving and environmentally friendly.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of the present invention easier to understand, the present invention is further described below with reference to specific Figures 1-4.

[0030] The present application provides a wetland resource monitoring auxiliary device, comprising a frame 100, the legs of which are inserted into the wetland soil for fixation. The frame 100 is provided with a soil moisture detection device 200, a wiping mechanism, a cleaning component, a driving source 300, and a linkage component. The soil moisture detection device 200 detects moisture data within the wetland soil, the wiping mechanism cleans the soil moisture detection device 200 to improve data accuracy, and the cleaning component cleans the soil surface to facilitate the soil moisture detection device 200 to detect soil moisture data within the soil, further improving data accuracy. The driving source 300 and the linkage component constitute the energy device of the present application.

[0031] In this embodiment, the soil moisture detection device 200 is a soil temperature and humidity detector, which has a detection probe 20, a soil moisture sensor, and a processor. By inserting the detection probe 20 into the soil, the soil moisture sensor collects soil moisture data and feeds back the processor. The processor feeds back the humidity data at this location so that the detection personnel can obtain the data remotely.

[0032] The soil moisture detection device 200 is connected to a driving source 300 , which is an electric cylinder. The driving source 300 is arranged vertically and can drive the detection probe 20 to move vertically and insert into the soil to detect data.

[0033] The wiping mechanism includes two opposing wiping assemblies, each comprising a wiping element 40. Before the detection probe 20 moves, the two wiping elements 40 abut against each other. As the detection probe 20 moves toward the soil surface, it can pass between the two wiping elements 40. A through-hole is formed between the two wiping elements 40, through which the detection probe 20 passes. The detection probe 20 is wrapped by the wiping layer on the inner wall of the through-hole, thereby cleaning the detection probe 20. Specifically, the wiping elements 40 are rotatably connected to the frame 100. As the detection probe 20 moves toward the soil surface, when the detection probe 20 has finished cleaning, the two wiping elements 40 can rotate and separate to allow the detection probe 20 to pass through the wiping elements 40.

[0034] The cleaning assembly includes a cleaning member 50, which is movably mounted on the frame 100. As the detection probe 20 moves toward the soil surface, the cleaning member 50 abuts the soil and rotates to remove the surface soil beneath the detection probe 20. Specifically, before the detection probe 20 moves, the cleaning member 50 is positioned beneath the detection probe 20. The cleaning member 50 contacts the soil surface before the detection probe 20. After the cleaning member 50 rotates, it lifts up and removes the surface soil beneath the detection probe 20.

[0035] The linkage assembly is linked to the wiping members 40 and the drive source 300. As the detection probe 20 moves toward the soil surface, the drive source 300 can, through the linkage assembly, drive the two wiping members 40 to separate from each other. The linkage assembly is also linked to the cleaning member 50. As the detection probe 20 moves toward the soil surface, the drive source 300 can, through the linkage assembly, drive the cleaning member 50 to contact the soil and rotate.

[0036] The linkage assembly includes a driving gear 60 and a mating gear 61. The driving gear 60 is located above the mating gear 61. A connecting shaft 30 is provided between the driving source 300 and the soil moisture detection device 200. The driving gear 60 is rotatably connected to the connecting shaft 30. The wiping member 40 is provided with a connecting rod 41. The connecting rod 41 is V-shaped. The mating gear 61 is rotatably connected to the frame 100 and connected to the connecting rod 41. After the detection probe 20 moves a specified distance toward the soil surface and enters between the two wiping members 40, the driving source 300 can drive the driving gear 60 to move downward and engage with the mating gear 61. The mating gear 61 rotates counterclockwise, causing the two wiping members 40 to rotate upward and then separate.

[0037] Specifically, a sliding sleeve 62 is provided on the connecting shaft 30, and an annular sliding groove 301 is opened on the side wall of the connecting shaft 30 along its own axial direction. The sliding sleeve 62 slides along the axial direction of the connecting shaft 30 and is positioned in the sliding groove 301; the driving gear 60 is provided on the sliding sleeve 62 so that the driving gear 60 slides axially relative to the connecting shaft 30. Under the action of gravity, the sliding sleeve 62 is located at the lower end of the sliding groove 301. In the process of the detection probe 20 moving downward toward the soil surface, the rotational resistance of the mating gear 61 is greater than the gravity of the sliding sleeve 62. After the driving gear 60 abuts against the mating gear 61, it drives the sliding sleeve 62 to move toward the upper end of the sliding groove 301. When the sliding sleeve 62 abuts against the upper end of the sliding groove 301, the sliding sleeve 62 is fixed relative to the connecting shaft 30, and the driving gear 60 meshes and rotates with the mating gear 61.

[0038] During the process of inserting the detection probe 20 into the soil, the active gear 60 remains engaged with the mating gear 61, and the two wipers 40 remain apart. In an optional embodiment, during the process of inserting the detection probe 20 into the soil, the active gear 60 is separated from the mating gear 61, and the wipers 40 are kept apart by the friction resistance of the mating gear 61.

[0039] In an optional embodiment, when the detection probe 20 is reset, the driving gear 60 is meshed with the mating gear 61 to clamp the detection probe 20 again for cleaning, so as to facilitate cleaning of the dirt remaining on the probe.

[0040] The cleaning assembly also includes a cleaning rod 51, the two ends of which are respectively connected to the cleaning member 50 and the connecting shaft 30. The driving source 300 can drive the cleaning member 50 to move downward and abut the soil surface through the connecting shaft 30. Specifically, the upper end of the cleaning rod 51 is rotatably connected to the connecting shaft 30. The upper end of the cleaning rod 51 has an abutment slope 63. The sliding sleeve 62 is provided with an abutment block 64 located below the abutment slope 63. When the sliding sleeve 62 moves toward the upper end of the sliding groove 301, the abutment block 64 abuts against the abutment slope 63. Since the cleaning member 50 is inserted into the soil surface under the drive of the driving source 300, the sliding sleeve 62 drives the cleaning member 50 to rotate, turning up the surface soil below the detection probe 20 and taking it away. After the driving gear 60 abuts the mating gear 61, the sliding sleeve 62 moves toward the upper end of the sliding groove 301, and the cleaning part 50 rotates first. The cleaning part 50 cleans the surface of the soil and moves to the upper side of the detection probe 20 until the sliding sleeve 62 abuts the upper end of the sliding groove 301. The two wiping parts 40 are separated and the detection probe 20 is inserted into the soil. During this process, the cleaning component and the wiping component do not interfere with the movement of the detection probe 20.

[0041] The frame 100 is provided with a protective sleeve 70, which has an end opening facing the soil surface, and the soil moisture detection device 200 is located in the protective sleeve 70. Specifically, the wiping assembly is provided on the protective sleeve 70, and a sidewall of the protective sleeve 70 is provided with an avoidance groove for facilitating the movement of the cleaning member 50.

[0042] The frame 100 is provided with a solar panel 80, which is electrically connected to the driving source 300. A battery is electrically connected between the solar panel 80 and the driving source 300. The frame 100 is also provided with a wind speed tester 9.

[0043] The basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present invention are shown and described above. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the present invention is not limited to the foregoing embodiments and that various modifications and improvements may be made to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Such modifications and improvements are intended to fall within the scope of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
