A suspension member 4 penetrates through the top seat 3, an XY moving platform 5 is fixedly arranged at the end of the suspension member 4, and a mounting frame 6 is arranged on the XY moving platform 5; an opening cover assembly 7 for pressing the clamping member 904 to open the cylinder cover 903 and automatically connecting with the sensor module 902 to establish data transmission and a closing cover assembly 8 for closing the cylinder cover 903 are arranged on the mounting frame 6. It can realize the automatic operation of the forest soil hydrological monitoring device based on sensor technology at each monitoring point, improve the monitoring efficiency, reduce manual intervention, and provide a more convenient, efficient and accurate technical means for forest soil hydrological monitoring work.

[0042] Such as Figure 5 - Figure 6As shown in the figure, the sensor module 902 includes a circuit board 902a fixed to the inner wall of the cylinder body 901; a connection socket 902b is provided at the top of the circuit board 902a, and a plurality of mounting rods 902c with a set length are provided at the bottom of the circuit board 902a. A sensor body 902d is provided at the bottom end of the mounting rod 902c. The sensor body 902d can be a soil moisture sensor, a soil temperature sensor, a soil pore water pressure sensor, etc. The connection socket 902b is located in the sealed cavity between the circuit board 902a and the cylinder cover 903, effectively protecting it from the intrusion of rain, debris, etc. To further ensure the normal operation of the connection socket 902b, a sealing ring 901c is provided at the top of the cylinder body 901, and a moisture-absorbing and drying ring 901d is provided inside the sealing ring 901c.

[0043] As Figure 6 - Figure 7 shown, supports 901a are integrally formed on both sides of the cylinder body 901. Mounting holes 901b are provided on the supports 901a. A clamping member 904 is located inside the support 901a, including a fixed seat 904a and a connecting rod 904f slidably disposed in the inner cavity of the support 901a; a movable rod 904b penetrates through the fixed seat 904a. A pressing plate 904c is fixedly provided at the top end of the movable rod 904b. A second spring 904e is sleeved on the movable rod 904b between the pressing plate 904c and the fixed seat 904a. A first wedge block 904d is fixedly provided at the bottom end of the movable rod 904b; a second wedge block 904g that cooperates with the first wedge block 904d is fixedly provided at one end of the connecting rod 904f. A third spring 904i is sleeved on the connecting rod 904f between the second wedge block 904g and the inner wall of the support 901a. A clamping block 904h is fixedly provided at the other end of the connecting rod 904f. A clamping groove 903a that cooperates with the clamping block 904h is provided on the surface of the cylinder cover 903;

[0044] During use, when the pressing plate 904c is squeezed by the opening cover assembly 7, it drives the movable rod 904b and the first wedge block 904d to move downward. At this time, the second spring 904e is compressed, and the first wedge block 904d squeezes the second wedge block 904g to drive it to move horizontally away from the cylinder cover 903. The second wedge block 904g drives the connecting rod 904f and the clamping block 904h to move. At this time, the third spring 904i is stretched, and the clamping block 904h leaves the clamping groove 903a. Under the action of the torsion spring of the rotating shaft of the cylinder cover 903, the cylinder cover 903 is automatically popped up.

[0045] As Figure 1 、 Figure 4As shown in the figure, the ball joint 2 includes a ball socket 201 fixed to the top of the moving vehicle body, a ball body 202 ball-jointed in the ball socket 201, and a foot-operated locking member 203 for locking the two; the locking member 203 includes a rack 203b slidably disposed in the ball socket 201, and a rubber extrusion block 203a for extruding the ball body 202 is fixedly provided at the end of the rack 203b. A gear 203c meshing with the rack 203b is provided below the rack 203b. The gear 203c is rotatably disposed in the ball socket 201, and a torsion spring is provided on the rotating shaft. A foot pedal 203d extending outside the ball socket 201 is fixedly provided at the edge of the gear 203c. When in use, step on the foot pedal 203d downward, the foot pedal 203d drives the gear 203c to rotate. At this time, the torsion spring is twisted. The gear 203c drives the rack 203b to move, and the rack 203b drives the rubber extrusion block 203a to move, so that it is separated from the ball body 202. At this time, the staff can freely adjust the orientation of the ball body 202. After the adjustment is completed, release the foot pedal 203d, and lock the ball body 202 again through the rubber extrusion block 203a.

[0046] The overhanging member 4 can be an ordinary cantilever structure or a robotic arm structure combined with a boom and a telescopic arm, as long as the overhanging function is realized. For portability considerations, the overhanging member 4 in this embodiment is an ordinary cantilever. A plurality of equally spaced pin holes 401 are provided on the cantilever, and the cantilever is fixed to the top seat 3 by pins. The extending length of the cantilever is adjusted based on actual needs. The setting of the cantilever makes the device convenient for collecting positions that are inconvenient for the human body to reach, such as muddy areas.

[0047] As Figure 2 - Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the cover opening assembly 7 includes a first electric push rod 701 fixed to the mounting bracket 6; a connection plug 702 matching with the connection socket 902b is provided at the end of the push rod of the first electric push rod 701. An installation plate 703 is fixedly sleeved on the push rod of the first electric push rod 701. Pressure rods 704 are movably penetrated through both ends of the installation plate 703. A fixed block 705 is fixedly sleeved at the lower end of the pressure rod 704. A first spring 706 is sleeved on the pressure rod 704 between the fixed block 705 and the installation plate 703. A plurality of laser positioning lamp beads 707 evenly distributed along the circumference of the pressure rod 704 are provided at the bottom of the installation plate 703. A camera 601 for photographing the position irradiated by the laser positioning lamp beads 707 is provided on the bottom surface of the end of the mounting bracket 6. A display screen 303 for displaying the image of the camera 601 and monitoring parameters is provided in the push frame 302.

[0048] During use, the pressing rod 704 is positioned by the laser positioning lamp bead 707 until the pressing rod 704 is directly above the pressing plate 904c. Then, the first electric push rod 701 drives the connecting plug 702 and the mounting plate 703 to descend. The mounting plate 703 drives the pressing rod 704 to squeeze the pressing plate 904c, thereby opening the cylinder cover 903. Control the first electric push rod 701 to continue descending until the connecting plug 702 is inserted into the connecting socket 902b.

[0049] The lid closing assembly 8 includes a second electric push rod 801; the push rod end of the second electric push rod 801 is hinged with a mounting seat 802, and a first electromagnet 803 for adsorbing the cylinder cover 903 is provided on the mounting seat 802. The other end of the second electric push rod 801 is hinged with the mounting bracket 6, and an elastic support platform 602 for supporting the second electric push rod 801 is provided on the mounting bracket 6.

[0050] During use, when the data collection at this monitoring point is completed, the cylinder cover 903 is adsorbed by the first electromagnet 803, and then the second electric push rod 801 drives the mounting seat 802 to extend, thereby driving the cylinder cover 903 to rotate and close.

[0051] Embodiment 2

[0052] On the basis of Embodiment 1, in order to enable the staff to intuitively understand the progress of the monitoring work in the entire forest area, as Figure 8 - Figure 11 shown, the fixed-point data collection module 9 further includes a marking plate 905 located in the top groove of the cylinder cover 903 for marking the monitored points that have been completed. One end of the marking plate 905 is hinged to the cylinder cover 903, and the other end is provided with a magnetic strip 905a magnetically attracted to the cylinder cover 903; a second electromagnet 804 for adsorbing the marking plate 905 to drive it to stand upright is also provided on the mounting seat 802; a ratchet 905i and a pawl 905h for locking the marking plate 905 in the upright state are also provided in the top groove of the cylinder cover 903. After the data collection at a certain monitoring point is completed, the marking plate 905 is adsorbed by the second electromagnet 804, and then the second electric push rod 801 is controlled to retract, thereby driving the marking plate 905 to be adjusted from the flat state to the upright state. During the rotation of the marking plate 905, since the pawl 905h rotates on the fourth wedge block 905f, it can displace along the ratchet 905i. When the marking plate 905 stands upright, the pawl 905h snaps into the ratchet 905i to lock the marking plate 905, so as to facilitate the staff to intuitively understand the monitored points of the collected data through the marking plate 905.

[0053] To improve the convenience of use of the marking board 905, a time-delay release unit is provided on the marking board 905 for controlling the automatic separation of the pawl 905h and the ratchet wheel 905i so that the marking board 905 can return to the flat state under its own gravity; the time-delay release unit includes a liquid storage cavity 905b located inside the marking board 905 for storing viscous liquid. A piston 905c is provided in the liquid storage cavity 905b. A piston rod 905d is fixedly provided on the piston 905c. The piston rod 905d penetrates to the outside of the marking board 905 and a third wedge block 905e is fixedly provided at its end. A fourth wedge block 905f is provided on the side of the third wedge block 905e and is matched with it. The pawl 905h is rotatably provided on the fourth wedge block 905f, and a spring post 905g is provided on the side surface of the fourth wedge block 905f. When the marking board 905 is adjusted from the flat state to the upright state, after a set time, such as one hour, the pawl 905h and the ratchet wheel 905i are automatically separated under the action of the time-delay release unit. At this time, the marking board 905 loses the locking mechanism and rotates downward to the flat state under its own gravity, and is magnetically attracted to the cylinder cover 903 through the magnetic strip 905a; among them, the viscous liquid can be selected as high-viscosity silicone oil, and its viscosity range is adjusted according to the required delay time. For example, for a delay of about one hour, silicone oil with a viscosity of 500-1000 centipoise can be selected.

[0054] During specific use, after the marking board 905 is erected and locked, the time-delay release unit starts to work. At this time, the viscous liquid in the liquid storage cavity 905b slowly descends under the action of gravity, slowly pushing the piston 905c to descend. The piston 905c drives the piston rod 905d and the third wedge block 905e to descend. Due to the resistance of the viscous liquid, the descent of the viscous liquid will continue for a certain time, such as one hour. When the piston 905c moves to a certain extent, the extrusion force of the third wedge block 905e on the fourth wedge block 905f is greater than the elastic force of the spring post 905g. At this time, the fourth wedge block 905f is squeezed to the side of the spring post 905g and drives the pawl 905h to disengage from the tooth groove of the ratchet wheel 905i. The marking board 905 loses the locking mechanism and gradually returns to the initial horizontal placement state under its own gravity.

[0055] Embodiment III

[0056] A forest soil hydrological monitoring method based on sensor technology includes the following steps:

[0057] S1. According to the monitoring purpose and the characteristics of the forest topography and landform, select representative monitoring points for the installation of the fixed-point data acquisition module 9. Bury multiple fixed-point data acquisition modules 9 in the soil of each monitoring point to ensure that the sensor module 902 is in close contact with the soil. The cylinder body 901 can extend a certain height above the ground, such as 5 cm, to prevent the soil from covering the fixed-point data acquisition module 9;

[0058] S2. Periodically drive the activity data acquisition module 1 to move to each monitoring point in turn for acquisition work;

[0059] Among them, when the activity data acquisition module 1 reaches the monitoring point, first adjust the orientation of the mounting bracket 6 through the ball joint 2 so that it is located above the fixed-point data acquisition module 9, and then further adjust the orientation of the mounting bracket 6 through the XY moving platform 5 so that it is directly above the fixed-point data acquisition module 9;
