During work, the microwaves emitted by the three magnetrons 103 are collected to the collection waveguide tube 105 through the three channel waveguide tubes 104, energy superposition is realized, then the microwaves are transmitted to the spiral waveguide tube 106 through the collection waveguide tube 105, and then the microwaves are emitted outward through the glass cover 112 on the pipe wall of the rod tube body 11 through the transmitting antenna 108 and the multiple transverse waveguide tubes 107 on the two sides of the spiral waveguide tube 106, so that the frozen soil is subjected to microwave heating.

[0030] Specifically, the transmitting antenna 108 comprises a rectangular box body 1081, the inner side (i.e. the side facing the spiral waveguide tube 106) of the rectangular box body 1081 is provided with a through hole for communication with the transverse waveguide tube 107, the outer side (i.e. the side facing the soil) of the rectangular box body 1081 is open, and a pair of eight-shaped guide plates 1082 gradually expanding from the inner side to the outer side are arranged in the rectangular box body 1081, so that the microwaves are diffused outward through the eight-shaped guide plates 1082 and the rectangular box body 1081.

[0031] The transmitting antenna rotation drive assembly includes a drive motor 1091, a transmission rod 1092, a rotating sleeve 1093, a turbine 1094 and a worm 1095 assembly. The drive motor 1091 is installed on the top plate 1011 of the mounting frame 101. The transmission rod 1092 is vertically arranged and located on the side of the vertical side plate 1012. The top of the transmission rod 1092 is connected to the drive motor 1091, and the drive motor 1091 drives the transmission rod 1092 to rotate; the rotating sleeve 1093 is sleeved on the horizontal On the lateral waveguide 107, a rotating sleeve 1093 is rotatable. The end of the rotating sleeve 1093 is fixedly connected to the transmitting antenna 108. The rotating sleeve 1093 is also mounted in a mounting hole in the vertical side plate 1012 via a bearing 1096, enhancing the stability of the rotating sleeve 1093. A turbine 1094 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the rotating sleeve 1093. Correspondingly, a worm 1095 is provided on the transmission rod 1092, meshing with the turbine 1094. When the drive motor 1091 rotates the transmission rod 1092, the transmission rod 1092, via the worm 1095, drives the turbine 1094 to rotate. The turbine 1094 then drives the rotating sleeve 1093 to rotate, which in turn drives the transmitting antenna 108 to rotate, thereby expanding the microwave irradiation range. Specifically, in the absence of a transmitting antenna rotation drive assembly, the irradiation angle and range of the microwaves emitted by the transmitting antenna 108 are fixed, and the irradiation shape of the microwaves emitted by the transmitting antenna 108 is approximately rectangular (see the attached diagram). Figure 6 ); and in the case of a transmitting antenna rotation drive assembly, the transmitting antenna 108 rotates so that the irradiation projection shape of the transmitted microwave forms a circle (see attached Figure 6 ), thereby expanding the microwave irradiation range. Furthermore, it should be noted that if transmitting antenna 108 is designed in a circular trumpet shape, while the projected shape of the transmitted microwaves can also be circular, this approach directly expands the microwave irradiation range, reducing the microwave energy density. Consequently, while the irradiation range is large, the heating effect within the range is insufficient, and the distance microwaves penetrate the soil is reduced. The present invention, however, utilizes a design in which transmitting antenna 108 rotates, ensuring both a large microwave irradiation range and a high energy density during irradiation.

[0032] Furthermore, rollers 1083 are provided on the top and bottom surfaces of the rectangular box body 1081 in the longitudinal direction of the transmitting antenna 108, so that the rectangular box body 1081 forms rolling contact with the hole wall of the through hole 111 of the rod tube body 11, thereby increasing the stability and smoothness of the rectangular box body 1081 during rotation.

[0033] Furthermore, heat dissipation fins 12 are provided on the tube wall of the rod tube body 11 in the installation area corresponding to the control circuit board 102 and the magnetron 103 to enhance the heat dissipation effect in this area.

[0034] Further, a horn-shaped reflecting disc 1061 (see Fig. 6) is arranged at the inner wall of the spiral waveguide 106 opposite to the inner port of the transverse waveguide 107, for making the microwave in the spiral waveguide 106 emit into the transverse waveguide 107. Figure 4

[0035] Further, the pitch of the spiral waveguide 106 is gradually reduced from top to bottom, and the arrangement interval of the emission antennas 108 is gradually reduced from top to bottom, so that the microwave energy is concentrated at the bottom of the microwave heating device 1, and the energy is not weakened when the microwave energy is transmitted to the bottom of the spiral waveguide, which can effectively improve the heating effect on the deep frozen soil.

[0036] Further, the opening of the splayed guide plate 1082 of each emission antenna 108 of the microwave heating device 1 is gradually reduced from top to bottom, that is, as the depth of the soil increases, the opening of the splayed guide plate 1082 of the emission antenna 108 is gradually reduced, so that the range of microwave irradiation is reduced, and the energy density is increased, so as to improve the deep heating efficiency, and the frozen soil can be thawed in a shorter time, and the heating effect on the frozen soil is further improved.

[0037] Further, the rod tube body 11 is also provided with a temperature sensor for detecting the temperature of the soil, and the detection signal of the temperature sensor is transmitted to the control circuit on the control circuit board 102, and the control circuit controls the starting of the magnetron according to the detection data of the temperature sensor to emit microwaves. The temperature feedback control mechanism can realize automatic adjustment of the frozen soil heating process, and ensure the heating efficiency and temperature control precision.

It should be understood that, in addition to the orientation shown in the drawings, the spatial terms are intended to include different orientations of the device in use or operation.
