Abstract

Technical Field

[0002] Effectively monitoring fish diversity is crucial for implementing sustainable fisheries management and assessing the impacts of commercial fishing and climate change on fish populations. However, current methods, such as baited camera traps, trawling surveys, and acoustic monitoring, have significant limitations and often struggle to fully exploit their detection capabilities in the vast ocean environment. In contrast, environmental DNA (eDNA) technology can more accurately reflect the fish population composition of a specific habitat by detecting genetic material contained in biological materials such as skin cells and mucus shed by fish during their natural activities in the water. This innovative approach provides a new technical path for marine biodiversity research.
[0003] Currently, when sampling, sampling personnel are required to drive a boat into the corresponding waters, and then tie the sampler to a towing rope and place it in the water.

However, it should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and do not limit the scope of the present invention. In addition, in the following description, the descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted to avoid unnecessarily confusing the concepts of the present invention. Embodiment 1
[0028] Please refer to Figures 1-7 , a collection device for monitoring fish communities based on environmental DNA technology, including a sampling device 1 and a sample collection device 2. The sampling device 1 and the sample collection device 2 are submerged in water. The sampling device 1 sucks liquid samples, and the liquid samples are deposited into the sample collection device 2 after being transported. Above the sampling device 1 and the sample collection device 2, a shape adjustment device 6 and a floating device are provided. The floating device controls the floating and sinking state of the collection device, so that the collection device floats in the water. The shape adjustment device 6 controls the unfolding state of the collection device and adjusts the floating height of the collection device in the water. On both sides of the shape adjustment device 6, propeller assemblies are provided. The propeller assemblies and the shape adjustment device 6 cooperate to control the movement of the collection device in the water. The propeller assemblies can be driven unidirectionally on the shape adjustment device 6 for steering, or the propeller assemblies on both sides of the shape adjustment device 6 are driven synchronously to drive the collection device to move linearly in the water.
[0029] It should be noted that the collection device is also provided with a power supply part, and the power supply can be set at the corresponding position according to needs, which will not be elaborated in detail here. In addition, a remote control is added to match signals with the collection device to increase the convenience of use. The remote control can be selectively manufactured according to actual needs, which will not be elaborated in detail here either. Embodiment 2
[0030] Please refer to Figures 1-2Based on the above embodiment, the sampling device for monitoring fish communities based on environmental DNA technology includes a sampling box 101, a sampling motor 102, an outer tube 103, an arc-shaped baffle 104, a sampling head 105, an inner tube 106, a connecting tube 107, a sampling tube 108, an outer bevel gear 109, an inner bevel gear 110, and a driving gear 111. The collection box 101 is internally rotatably connected to an outer bevel gear 109 and an inner bevel gear 110. The driving gear 111 is simultaneously engaged with the outer bevel gear 109 and the inner bevel gear 110, and drives the outer bevel gear 109 and the inner bevel gear 110 to rotate forward and reverse. A collection motor 102 is fixedly connected to one side of the driving gear 111. The collection motor 102 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the collection box 101, and its driving shaft is fixedly connected to the driving gear 111. The collection motor 102 is configured as a reciprocating motor to drive the driving gear 111 to rotate reciprocatingly.
[0031] One end of the outer tube 103 passes through the collection box 101 and is fixedly connected to the outer bevel gear 109, and the other end is fixedly connected to the baffle 104; The inner tube 106 is located inside the outer tube 103, and one end thereof passes through the collection box 101, the outer bevel gear 109 and is fixedly connected to the inner bevel gear 110, and the other end is fixedly connected to the collection head 105 with a spherical structure; The connecting tube 107 is located inside the inner tube 106, and one end of it passes through the inner tube 106 and is connected to the sample collecting device 2 in the collection box 101, and the other end passes through the collection head 105 and is fixedly connected to the collection tube 108, one end of which fits inside the collection head 105.
[0032] The collection tube 108 is configured in a symmetrical "H" shape. The collection end of the collection tube 108 fits inside the collection head 105 and remains flush with the outer wall of the collection head 105. The baffle 104 is configured in an arc-shaped structure and fits snugly over the outer wall of the collection head 105. The ends of the baffle 104 block the collection end of the collection tube 108.
[0033] Specifically, when in use, by starting the collection motor 102 to drive the outer bevel gear 109 and the inner bevel gear 110 to rotate forward and reverse, the outer tube 103 and the inner tube 106 maintain a forward and reverse rotation state. At this time, the baffle 104 and the collection head 105 also maintain a forward and reverse rotation. Since one end of the collection tube 108 fits into the interior of the collection head 105, the baffle 104 and one end of the collection tube 108 form an interlaced trend, and the baffle 104 will not block the collection tube 108. After the baffle 104 is sealed with one end of the collection tube 108 inside the collection head 105 next time, it is regarded as a rotation cycle. During this cycle, the baffle 104 will not block the collection tube 108, so that sampling is performed through the connecting tube 107 and the collection tube 108.
[0034] In order to prevent the connecting tube 107 from being entangled inside the collection box 101, the collection motor 102 is set as a reciprocating motor, so that one end of the connecting tube 107 will not be always entangled in one direction, and only one cycle of rotation length is reserved.
[0035] The solution in this embodiment can be selectively combined with the solutions in other embodiments for use. Example 3
[0036] See also Figures 1-3 On the basis of the above embodiment, the sampling device for monitoring fish communities based on environmental DNA technology, the sampling device 2 includes a sampling bottle 201, a sampling solenoid valve 202, a main connecting pipe 203, a delivery pump 204 and a bottle stopper 205; The sample collecting bottle 201 is fixedly mounted on the top of the collection box 101. The sample collecting bottle 201 is composed of a plurality of independent collecting bottles fixed side by side. One end of the sample collection bottle 201 is fixedly connected to a sample collection solenoid valve 202 via a branch pipe, and the other end is threadedly fixed with a bottle stopper 205. The sample collection solenoid valve 202 includes a hollow plate 2021, a solenoid valve 2022, a main connection port 2023, and a branch connection port 2024. The number of solenoid valves 2022 and branch connection ports 2024 corresponds to the number of collection bottles. Each solenoid valve 2022 can independently control the collection bottle. One end of the sample receiving solenoid valve 202 is fixedly connected to a main connecting pipe 203, which is fixedly connected to the interior of the hollow plate 2021 through a main connecting port 2023. The main connecting pipe 203 is fixedly connected to the water outlet end of the delivery pump 204; After one end of the connecting tube 107 passes through the inner tube 106, it is fixedly connected to the water inlet end of the delivery pump 204 inside the collection box 101; The delivery pump 204 is fixedly installed on the other side wall of the collection box 101, opposite to the collection motor 102. The delivery pump 204 and the collection motor 102 are arranged opposite to each other, which can balance the weight of both sides of the collection box 101, so that the collection box 101 remains balanced.
[0037] Specifically, during use, samples are collected by connecting the delivery pump 204, the connecting tube 107 and the collection tube 108, and then the samples are separately delivered to multiple sample collection bottles 201 through the main connecting tube 203 and the sample collection solenoid valve 202. Since the sample collection solenoid valve 202 is provided with multiple independent branch connecting ports 2024 and corresponding solenoid valves 2022, each solenoid valve 2022 can independently control the collection bottle, so that independent sampling of each area can be achieved.
[0038] In addition, it should be noted that, since there is no sample in the connecting tube 107, the collecting tube 108, the main connecting tube 203, the delivery pump 204, and the sample receiving solenoid valve 202 during the first sample collection, and they are in an empty state, the sample sucked in by one reciprocating rotation cycle of the collecting motor 102 is set to just fill the connecting tube 107, the collecting tube 108, the main connecting tube 203, the delivery pump 204, and the sample receiving solenoid valve 202. Therefore, during the first sample collection, at least two cycles of forward and reverse rotation of the collecting motor 102 are required. One cycle is used to fill the above components, and the next cycle is used to input the sample in the above components into the sample receiving bottle 201. By analogy, when the sample is sucked into the next sample receiving bottle 201, at least two cycles of time are also required to collect the sample. In other words, one forward and reverse rotation of the collecting motor 102 can be regarded as one large cycle, but the amount of sample in the sample receiving bottle 201 during the first sample collection is relatively small.
[0039] The solution in this embodiment can be selectively combined with the solutions in other embodiments for use. Example 4
[0040] See also Figure 1 and Figures 4-6 On the basis of the above embodiments, the collection device for monitoring fish communities based on environmental DNA technology, the shape adjustment device 6 includes an electrically remote-controlled telescopic rod 601 and a box body 602.
[0041] Concave shells 604 are provided on both sides of the box body 602, and a chain belt 605 is provided inside the concave shell 604. The two ends of the chain belt 605 are connected and stretched by the active tooth column 607 and the driven tooth column 606 respectively. The two ends of the active tooth column 607 and the driven tooth column 606 are rotatably connected inside the concave shell 604.
[0042] A driven gear 608 is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the middle end of the driving serrated column 607. One side of the driven gear 608 is meshed and connected with a driving gear 609. One side of the driving gear 609 is fixedly connected with a transmission rod 610. The transmission rod 610 is connected to the concave housing 604 through a fixing plate 611, and one end of it is drivingly connected with a driving rod 612. One end of the driving rod 612 passes through the concave housing 604 and is fixedly connected with a motor 613. The motor 613 is fixedly installed on the concave housing 604, and the driving rod 612 is driven by the motor 613.
[0043] A rotational connection is maintained between the fixing plate 611 and the transmission rod 610, and the fixing plate 611 restricts the position of the transmission rod 610; one end of the motor 613 is fixedly connected with a pry bar 614. The pry bar 614 passes through the box body 602, and it is rotationally connected inside the box body 602 through a support shaft 615; a through groove 618 is provided inside the side wall of the box body 602 to facilitate the pry bar 614 to pass through the box body 602.
[0044] A bearing 616 is fixedly sleeved on one end of the pry bar 614. Both sides of the bearing 616 are hinged with a connecting plate 617 through a rotating shaft; through the arrangement of the bearing and the connecting plate, it is convenient to drive one end of the pry bar to rotate based on the support shaft as a fulcrum. The telescopic rod 601 is fixedly installed on the box body 602. The movable end of the telescopic rod 601 passes through the box body 602 and is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting plate 617. The connecting plate 617 is driven to move up and down by the telescopic rod 601.
[0045] A hose 603 is sleeved outside the motor 613. Both ends of the hose 603 are fixedly connected to the concave housing 604 and the box body 602 respectively.
[0046] The propeller assembly includes a propeller 3, a mandrel 4, a wide-body gear 5 and a bridging rod 7.
[0047] A wide-body gear 5 is also drivingly connected inside the chain belt 605. A mandrel 4 is fixedly penetrated inside the wide-body gear 5. Both ends of the mandrel 4 are rotationally connected to the inner side wall of the concave housing 604. At the same time, the middle end of the mandrel 4 is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the concave housing 604 through a bridging rod 7; among them, one end of the mandrel 4 passes through the side wall of the concave housing 604 and is fixedly connected with a propeller 3. The wide-body gear 5 is driven to rotate by the chain belt 605, so that the mandrel 4 rotates, and thus the propeller 3 rotates.
[0048] Specifically, during use, by synchronously or individually starting two motors 613, they drive the drive rod 612 and the transmission rod 610 to rotate, so that the drive gear 609 drives the driven gear 608 to rotate, so that the driving serrated column 607 and the driven serrated column 606 drive the chain belt 605 to transmit power. The chain belt 605 drives a plurality of wide-body gears 5 to rotate, causing the mandrel 4 to rotate, and thus causing the propeller 3 to rotate, providing thrust through the propeller 3; when the two motors 613 are started synchronously, the propellers 3 on both sides provide thrust simultaneously, which can push the entire device to move. When one of the motors 613 is started, the propeller 3 on one side provides thrust, enabling steering.
[0049] When it is necessary to change the shape of the shape adjustment device 6, it can cooperate with the float device to dive into the water. By starting the telescopic rod 601, it drives one end of the two pry bars 614 to rotate upward or downward simultaneously. When one end of the two pry bars 614 rotates upward simultaneously, the expansion range of the entire shape adjustment device 6 becomes larger, the direct contact area with water becomes larger, and the buoyancy received increases. When one end of the two pry bars 614 rotates downward simultaneously, the range of the entire shape adjustment device 6 becomes smaller, the direct contact area with water becomes smaller, and the buoyancy received decreases.
[0050] The solutions in this embodiment can be selectively combined and used with the solutions in other embodiments. Embodiment 5
[0051] Please refer to Figure 1 、 4 Figures 6, 7, on the basis of the above embodiments, for the collection device for monitoring fish communities based on environmental DNA technology, the float device includes a sliding sleeve 8, a T-shaped rod 801, a spring 802, an airbag 803, an air pipe 804, a pneumatic valve solenoid 805, an air disk 806, and an air pump 807; The air disk 806 and the sliding sleeve 8 are fixedly installed on the concave housing 604. The sliding sleeve 8 is arranged in a bent structure. The vertical part of the sliding sleeve 8 is internally slidably connected with a T-shaped rod 801. A spring 802 is elastically connected between the T-shaped rod 801 and the sliding sleeve 8, and an airbag 803 is fixedly connected to the bottom of its flat part; the spring 802 is sleeved outside the sliding sleeve 8 and the T-shaped rod 801, and one end of it is located at the bent part of the sliding sleeve 8, and the other end is fixedly connected to the flat part of the T-shaped rod 801; the combined structure of the sliding sleeve 8, the T-shaped rod 801, the spring 802, and the airbag 803 is provided with multiple groups and is distributed in an annular array around the air disk 806.
[0052] The air pump 8 provides thrust, enabling steering.
[0053] It should be noted that valve solenoid valves 805 are fixedly installed on multiple air pipes 804, and every two opposing valve solenoid valves 805 are controlled by the same switch signal. The two opposing valve solenoid valves 805 are controlled by the same switch, which can ensure that the air pump 807 simultaneously sucks the gas in two opposing air bags 803, ensuring overall symmetry, so that the overall structure is relatively balanced.
[0054] Specifically, when in use, by opening all the valve solenoid valves 805, the air pump 807 can inflate all the air bags 803, causing the air bags 803 to expand. When multiple air bags 803 expand, the entire device can float on the water surface.
[0055] When the entire device needs to dive into the water, the air pump 807 sucks the gas in all the air bags 803, causing the air bags 803 to deflate, and folding the shape of the deformable body adjusting device 6, enabling the entire device to dive. For easy sampling, the entire device can be suspended in the water. By opening two or more opposing air bags 803, the buoyancy received by the entire device can be increased, enabling suspension. At the same time, it can also cooperate with the deployment of the deformable body adjusting device 6 and cooperate with the air bags 803 for suspension, increasing the adjustability of the suspension height.
[0056] The solution in this embodiment can be selectively combined with the solutions in other embodiments for use.
[0057] It should be noted that although the above embodiments have been described in this article, the patent protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereby. Therefore, based on the innovative concept of the present invention, any changes and modifications made to the embodiments described in this article, or equivalent structural, equivalent process, or equivalent function transformations made using the content of the specification and drawings of the present invention, and directly or indirectly applying the above technical solutions to other related technical fields, are all included within the protection scope of the present invention patent.
