Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of water environment monitoring technology, and specifically relates to an intelligent aquaculture environment monitoring device. Background Technology

[0002] Aquaculture is a production activity that utilizes available water areas to breed, cultivate, and harvest aquatic plants and animals under human control, based on the ecological habits and environmental requirements of the aquatic organisms. Monitoring the aquatic environment is extremely important in aquaculture, as key indicators such as water temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, and ammonia nitrogen directly affect the health and growth rate of aquatic organisms. By monitoring these indicators in real time, farmers can adjust the aquaculture environment promptly to ensure optimal growth conditions for aquatic products. Abnormal water quality is often a precursor to disease outbreaks. Timely detection of water quality changes through monitoring systems allows for proactive measures to prevent disease outbreaks and reduce economic losses caused by diseases. Using water quality monitoring systems, farmers can remotely monitor the aquaculture environment, reducing the frequency and cost of manual inspections. Simultaneously, the system can automatically control facilities such as aerators and feeders based on real-time data, improving production efficiency.

[0003] Existing aquaculture environmental monitoring equipment often requires multiple different sensors to be directly immersed in water during operation, and the sensors must be kept in a working state continuously. However, long-term operation may cause aging, contamination, or fatigue of the internal components of the sensors, thereby reducing measurement accuracy. The sensor's response rate to changes may slow down, affecting the real-time performance of the system. Long-term operation will also accelerate the aging of the internal materials of the sensors, especially semiconductor materials, which may undergo slight structural changes, thereby reducing the lifespan of the sensors and the monitoring accuracy.

[0004] To address these issues, those skilled in the art have proposed an intelligent aquaculture environment monitoring device.

[0005] The information disclosed above in this background section is only for enhancing the understanding of the background section of this invention, and therefore may include prior art that is not known to those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide an intelligent aquaculture environment monitoring device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0008] A smart aquaculture environment monitoring device, comprising:

[0009] The support mechanism includes a floating platform. A solar panel, a first base, a monitoring component, and a transmission component are disposed on the upper surface of the floating platform. The monitoring component is mounted on the first base and includes several mounting brackets and a sensor integrated module connected to the mounting brackets.

[0010] The triggering mechanism includes a second base disposed on the lower surface of the floating platform, a water pump connected to the lower surface of the second base, a first pipe connected to one end of the water pump, the second base communicating with the interior of the first pipe, a lifting plate installed inside the second base, the lifting plate slidingly engaging with the interior of the second base, a through hole penetrating the lifting plate, a telescopic column fixedly connected to the upper surface of the lifting plate, a telescopic cylinder and a switching device installed inside the first base, a telescopic cavity inside the telescopic cylinder, the telescopic column slidingly engaging with the telescopic cylinder through the telescopic cavity, and the switching device electrically connected to a sensor integrated module.

[0011] Preferably, the positions and quantities of the switching device, the telescopic cylinder, and the sensor integration module are adapted to each other, and a switch pressure block is included below the switching device, the switch pressure block passing through the telescopic cylinder.

[0012] Preferably, the solar module includes an energy storage device and a rotating base, on which a solar photovoltaic panel is mounted.

[0013] Preferably, a wire is provided between the solar photovoltaic panel and the energy storage device, and the energy storage device is electrically connected to the solar photovoltaic panel through the wire.

[0014] Preferably, the transmission component includes a column fixedly installed on the floating platform, a display device mounted on the column, the display device being electrically connected to a sensor integration module, and a wireless signal transmission module being electrically connected to the display device.

[0015] Preferably, the first base is provided with a connecting tube, which is connected to the first tube body through the first base. A sample holding chamber is connected to the connecting tube, and the sensor integrated module is located inside the sample holding chamber.

[0016] Preferably, a storage plate is provided on the lower surface of the floating platform, a steering servo is installed on the lower surface of the storage plate, a second drive motor is movably connected to the steering servo, and a propeller is connected to the output end of the second drive motor.

[0017] Preferably, a second tube is sleeved inside the first tube, a rail groove is opened inside the first tube, a sliding rail plate is provided on the peripheral side of the second tube, the sliding rail plate slides in cooperation with the rail groove, and a drive chamber is fixedly installed on the peripheral side of the first tube.

[0018] Preferably, a first drive motor is fixedly installed on one side of the drive compartment, and the output end of the first drive motor is connected to a drive gear. The drive gear is located inside the drive compartment. The sliding rail plate has a toothed groove inside, and a plurality of toothed blocks are arranged in the toothed groove. The toothed blocks mesh with the drive gear.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0020] (1) This invention uses a floating platform with solar panels, a first base, a monitoring component, and a transmission component to float on the waters being aquacultured. The sensor integrated module on the monitoring component includes a dissolved oxygen sensor, a pH sensor, and a temperature sensor, which are used to accurately collect various parameters of the water environment. The sensor integrated modules of this device are all suspended in the sample holding chamber by a mounting bracket. This device sends water samples from the water area into the sample holding chamber by starting a water pump, allowing the sensor integrated modules to intermittently contact the water samples. There is no need to keep the sensor integrated modules continuously on the bottom of the water. A vertically sliding lifting plate is installed in the second base. When the water pump pumps water, the water flow will drive the lifting plate to rise, and then the telescopic column on the lifting plate will be inserted into the telescopic cavity, which can then be pressed against the switch block on the switch device. At this time, the sensor integrated module can be activated to detect the water sample pumped up. This ensures that the sensor integrated module will only be activated when a sample is pumped in, and will remain in a standby state under normal conditions. This avoids the situation where the sensor's lifespan is reduced due to continuous operation.

[0021] (2) The present invention uses a second tube with toothed blocks and a first tube with a first drive motor. The first drive motor can be activated to drive the toothed blocks to mesh with the drive gear, thereby achieving the mutual extension and retraction effect of the first tube and the second tube. This allows for sampling of water at different depths. Furthermore, due to the use of toothed blocks and drive gears for longitudinal movement, the second tube will fall downwards due to gravity, allowing for the collection of deeper water samples. Then, the first drive motor is activated to drive the first tube to retract, allowing for the collection of shallower water samples. This repetitive motion enables continuous dynamic sampling.

[0022] The above overview is for illustrative purposes only and is not intended to be limiting in any way. In addition to the illustrative aspects, embodiments, and features described above, further aspects, embodiments, and features of the invention will become readily apparent from the accompanying drawings and the following detailed description.

[0030] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0031] Example 1:

[0032] Please see Figures 1-6 As shown, an intelligent aquaculture environment monitoring device includes:

[0033] The support mechanism includes a floating platform 1. The upper surface of the floating platform 1 is provided with a solar panel 2, a first base 13, a monitoring component 3 and a transmission component 4. The monitoring component 3 is installed on the first base 13 and includes several mounting brackets 11 and a sensor integrated module 32 connected to the mounting brackets 11.

[0034] The triggering mechanism includes a second base 14 disposed on the lower surface of the floating platform 1, a water pump 5 connected to the lower surface of the second base 14, a first pipe 6 connected to one end of the water pump 5, the second base 14 and the first pipe 6 being internally connected, a lifting plate 22 installed inside the second base 14, the lifting plate 22 being slidably engaged with the interior of the second base 14, a through hole 23 being provided on the lifting plate 22, a telescopic column 21 being fixedly connected to the upper surface of the lifting plate 22, a telescopic cylinder 19 and a switch device 17 being installed inside the first base 13, a telescopic cavity 20 being provided inside the telescopic cylinder 19, the telescopic column 21 being slidably engaged with the telescopic cylinder 19 through the telescopic cavity 20, and the switch device 17 being electrically connected to the sensor integrated module 32.

[0035] Specifically, the positions and quantities of the switchgear 17, the telescopic cylinder 19, and the sensor integration module 32 are all adapted to each other. The switchgear 17 includes a switch pressure block 18 below it, which passes through the telescopic cylinder 19.

[0036] As can be seen from the above, this device, by setting up a floating platform 1 with solar panels 2, a first base 13, a monitoring component 3, and a transmission component 4, can float on the water area being cultured. The sensor integrated module 32 on the monitoring component 3 includes a dissolved oxygen sensor, a pH sensor, and a temperature sensor, used to accurately collect various parameters of the aquatic environment. Furthermore, all sensor integrated modules 32 of this device are suspended in the sample holding chamber 31 by mounting brackets 11. This device sends water samples from the water area into the sample holding chamber 31 by starting the water pump 5, allowing the sensor integrated modules 32 to intermittently contact the water samples. However, it is not necessary to keep the sensor integrated module 32 continuously at the bottom of the water. A vertically sliding lifting plate 22 is installed in the second base 14. When the water pump 5 pumps water, the water flow will drive the lifting plate 22 to rise. Then, the telescopic column 21 on the lifting plate 22 will be inserted into the telescopic cavity 20, and then it can be pressed against the switch block 18 on the switch device 17. At this time, the sensor integrated module 32 can be activated to detect the water sample pumped up. It can be ensured that the sensor integrated module 32 will only be activated when a sample is pumped in. Under normal conditions, it will remain in a closed standby state, thus avoiding the situation where the sensor's lifespan is reduced due to continuous operation.

[0037] Example 2:

[0038] Please see Figures 1-6 As shown, the solar module 2 includes an energy storage device 35 and a rotating base 28. A solar photovoltaic panel 10 is mounted on the rotating base 28. The solar photovoltaic panel 10 and the energy storage device 35 can provide a power supply source for this device.

[0039] Specifically, a wire 29 is provided between the solar photovoltaic panel 10 and the energy storage device 35, and the energy storage device 35 is electrically connected to the solar photovoltaic panel 10 through the wire 29.

[0040] Specifically, the transmission component 4 includes a column 33 fixedly installed on the floating platform 1. A display device 12 is installed on the column 33. The display device 12 is electrically connected to the sensor integration module 32. A wireless signal transmission module 34 is electrically connected to the display device 12. The display device 12 is used to collect the parameters detected by the sensor integration module 32 and transmit them to the equipment terminal of the staff through the wireless signal transmission module 34.

[0041] Specifically, a connecting tube 30 is provided on the first base 13. The connecting tube 30 is connected to the first tube body 6 through the first base 13. A sample holding chamber 31 is connected to the connecting tube 30, and the sensor integrated module 32 is located in the sample holding chamber 31.

[0042] Specifically, a storage plate 15 is provided on the lower surface of the floating platform 1, and a steering servo 36 is installed on the lower surface of the storage plate 15. A second drive motor 16 is movably connected to the steering servo 36, and a propeller 37 is connected to the output end of the second drive motor 16. The second drive motor 16 with the steering servo 36 can drive the device to move freely, so that the monitoring area can be selected according to the needs.

[0043] Specifically, a second tube 7 is sleeved inside the first tube 6. A rail groove is opened inside the first tube 6. A sliding rail plate 25 is provided on the periphery of the second tube 7. The sliding rail plate 25 slides in cooperation with the rail groove. A drive chamber 8 is fixedly installed on the periphery of the first tube 6.

[0044] Specifically, a first drive motor 9 is fixedly installed on one side of the drive compartment 8. The output end of the first drive motor 9 is connected to a drive gear 24. The drive gear 24 is located inside the drive compartment 8. A toothed groove 26 is opened inside the sliding rail plate 25. Several toothed blocks 27 are arranged in the toothed groove 26. The toothed blocks 27 mesh with the drive gear 24.

[0045] As can be seen from the above, this device, through the second tube 7 with toothed blocks 27 and the first tube 6 with the first drive motor 9, can activate the first drive motor 9 to drive the toothed blocks 27 to mesh with the drive gear 24, thereby achieving the mutual extension and retraction effect of the first tube 6 and the second tube 7. This allows for sampling of water at different depths. Furthermore, due to the longitudinal movement using the toothed blocks 27 and the drive gear 24, the second tube 7 will fall downwards due to gravity, at which point deeper water samples can be collected. Then, the first drive motor 9 is activated to drive the first tube 6 to retract, at which point shallower water samples can be collected. This reciprocating motion achieves a continuous dynamic sampling effect.
