[0010] According to some embodiments of the utility model, in order to meet the demand for power supply in the field, the environmental monitoring and information collection device also includes a photovoltaic box, which is provided with a plurality of photovoltaic panels and is connected to the top of the detection frame.
[0011] According to some embodiments of the utility model, in order to electrically control the detection frame, the telescopic assembly includes at least one electric push rod, each of which is connected to the mounting platform and the photovoltaic box.

[0029] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined, terms such as setting, installing, connecting, etc. should be understood in a broad sense, and technicians in the relevant technical field can reasonably determine the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific content of the technical solution.
[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, an environmental monitoring and information collection device according to the first embodiment of the utility model comprises a mounting plate 100, a cylinder 200, a detection frame 300 and a photovoltaic box 400. The mounting plate 100 is fixed on the rock surface of the nature reserve by anchor screws, and the cylinder 200 is welded on the mounting plate 100. In order to strengthen the rigidity of the cylinder 200, at least two reinforcing ribs 110 are welded between the cylinder 200 and the mounting plate 100. The utility model does not limit the number of the reinforcing ribs 110, and all the reinforcing ribs 110 are evenly distributed on the outer side of the cylinder 200. The cylinder 200 is made of stainless steel coil, which is arranged in the up and down direction and has an open top surface. The height of the cylinder 200 is higher than the height of the dwarf shrubs. In this embodiment, the height of the cylinder 200 is between 1.2 meters and 1.8 meters, preferably 1.5 meters.
[0031] The outer periphery of the cylinder 200 is movably connected with a mounting platform 210 in the up-down direction, and the mounting platform 210 is arranged in a ring around the outer side of the cylinder 200. Specifically, the top of the cylinder 200 is provided with a plurality of first mounting holes 230 distributed up and down, and the mounting platform 210 is provided with a shroud 211 extending downward, and the shroud 211 is provided with a second mounting hole corresponding to the first mounting hole 230, and the first mounting hole 230 can be selected as a screw hole, so that the mounting platform 210 and the cylinder 200 can be movably connected by bolts, so as to adjust the setting height of the mounting platform 210. At least one telescopic unit is installed on the mounting platform 210. In this embodiment, the number of the telescopic units can be selected as two, and the telescopic unit can be a gas strut or a telescopic device with power, such as a gas cylinder, an oil cylinder or an electric push rod 500, but since it is impossible to connect gas or build a hydraulic station in the field, the telescopic device with power is generally selected as an electric push rod 500.
[0032] In addition, in order to meet the demand for outdoor power supply, the top of the photovoltaic box 400 is provided with a plurality of photovoltaic panels 410, and the interior of the photovoltaic box 400 is provided with a storage battery 420, a controller 430, a broadband communication module 440 and a narrowband communication module 450. The photovoltaic panel 410 converts solar energy into electrical energy through the photovoltaic power generation principle and stores it in the storage battery 420, and the storage battery 420 provides electrical energy for all electrical appliances of the device. The controller 430 is the control core of the device, which can be a single-chip microcomputer. The broadband communication module 440 and the narrowband communication module 450 are both prior art, wherein the broadband communication module 440 is used for broadband communication, and the narrowband communication module 450 is used for narrowband communication. Since the power consumption of the broadband communication module 440 is relatively high, although the device has a dual data transmission unit composed of the broadband communication module 440 and the narrowband communication module 450, after clearly knowing that the area where the device is located does not have a wireless local area network, the staff needs to turn off the broadband communication module 440 in time to avoid it from generating a large power burden on the circuit. Of course, the device can also be electrically connected to a nearby power station, and is not limited to being powered by a photovoltaic system.
[0033] Furthermore, in order to facilitate maintenance of the equipment in the photovoltaic box 400, a switch door 460 is provided on one side of the photovoltaic box 400, and a manual lock 461 is provided at the gap of the switch door 460 to prevent the switch door 460 from being opened without reason. In addition, since the device is located outdoors, in order to cope with various weather conditions, the shape of the photovoltaic box 400 can be designed as follows: Figure 1 The triangular column shown can effectively guide rain and snow downward when rain and snow fall onto the photovoltaic panel 410 to prevent them from accumulating on the top of the photovoltaic box 400 and causing excessive weight or affecting the normal use of the photovoltaic panel 410 for a long time.
[0034] In order to monitor the surrounding environment and collect information, the detection frame 300 has a hierarchical structure, and the hierarchical structure is provided with a plurality of partitions 310 from top to bottom. One of the partitions 310 can be connected to at least one sensor. In this embodiment, in order to save space, the upper and lower surfaces of one of the partitions 310 are used to connect the sensor. In order to meet the needs of environmental monitoring and information collection, the number of sensors is at least three, including a temperature and humidity sensor 320, a gas concentration sensor 330, and a light sensor 340, so as to collect environmental information such as humidity, temperature, concentration of various types of gases, and light hours in the nature reserve, and solve the dilemma that the environmental information in the core area of the nature reserve is difficult to collect. In this embodiment, the number of sensors is five, and in addition to the above three sensors, it also includes an image information collector 350 and a human infrared pyroelectric sensor 360. The utility model realizes the monitoring of human activities in the nature reserve by setting a human infrared pyroelectric sensor 360, and improves the monitoring accuracy through the image information collector 350, so as to make up for the lag of remote sensing monitoring of the nature reserve and the inefficiency of manual patrol supervision. It is understandable that the present invention does not limit the specific types and quantities of the sensors, and the user may increase or decrease the types and quantities of the sensors according to their own needs.
[0035] In order to realize the up and down lifting of the detection frame 300, the top plate of the detection frame 300 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate of the photovoltaic box 400. At this time, the projection of the detection frame 300 on the mounting plate 100 is located inside the cylinder 200, and the outer dimension of the detection frame 300 is smaller than the inner dimension of the cylinder 200, and the size of the photovoltaic box 400 is larger than the size of the detection frame 300, so as to prevent rain and snow from falling directly on the sensors of each layer. Even so, each sensor still needs to be waterproofed to effectively extend its service life.
[0036] In this embodiment, there are two telescopic units, each of which is respectively connected to the mounting platform 210 and the photovoltaic box 400. Since the detection frame 300 is connected to the photovoltaic box 400 instead of being directly connected to the cylinder 200, small animals cannot climb onto the detection frame 300 from the cylinder 200, thereby reducing the risk of the sensor being bitten.
[0037] Since the device has power supply, the telescopic unit is preferably an electric push rod 500. When the electric push rod 500 pushes the photovoltaic box 400 to move up and down, the detection frame 300 also moves synchronously. The advantage of this arrangement is that when encountering extreme weather, the control center can remotely send a control command to the device to control its electric push rod 500 to retract, thereby switching the device to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In the storage state shown in the figure, since most of the detection frame 300 is extended into the cylinder 200, the damage caused by extreme weather to the device can be effectively reduced. When the weather clears up, the control center remotely sends a control command to the device to control its electric push rod 500 to extend, thereby switching the device to the storage state shown in the figure. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The expanded state shown is used to continue environmental monitoring and information collection work.
[0038] However, it needs to be further explained that even if the device is switched to the storage state, the image information collector 350 and the human infrared pyroelectric sensor 360 still need to be exposed on the cylinder 200, that is, the image information collector 350 and the human infrared pyroelectric sensor 360 are arranged on the partition 310 located on the top layer to monitor human activities at all times, so as to combat illegal activities such as illegal mining, illegal logging and poaching.
[0039] In some embodiments of the utility model, since the inner cavity of the cylinder 200 is prone to accumulate debris such as leaves, a hand hole 220 is provided at the bottom of the cylinder 200 to facilitate the cleaning of the debris in the cylinder 200 and avoid obstruction to the descent of the detection frame 300. The staff needs to inspect all environmental monitoring and information collection devices in the nature reserve at regular intervals. If it is found that there are too many impurities in the cylinder 200, the impurities in the cylinder 200 can be cleaned with tongs. Of course, since each environmental monitoring and information collection device is connected to the network, when any device fails, it can report the failure to the control center, and the staff needs to carry tools and accessories to the corresponding location for maintenance.
[0040] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of ordinary technicians in the technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
