Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0055] Embodiment 1:

[0057] The mounting platform 2 is provided with a height adjustment mechanism capable of controlling the height adjustment of the mounting platform 2 on the threaded support column 1, so as to facilitate the disassembly, assembly and maintenance of the monitoring equipment. A control box 3 for coordinating and controlling the normal operation of the whole is provided at the bottom of the mounting platform 2; an antenna 7 electrically connected to the control box 3 is also provided at the upper end of the mounting platform 2, and a wireless communication module connected to the antenna 7 is provided in the control box 3, so as to realize remote control operation. The specific structure involved belongs to the prior art and will not be introduced in detail. When in use, remote control operation can be performed through a smart phone.
[0058] The upper end of the mounting platform 2 is provided with a photovoltaic panel 4 for collecting light energy and a storage battery 5 for storing electricity. A complete solar photovoltaic power generation system involves many component structures, which is a prior art. We will not introduce them in detail one by one. We only introduce the positions of the components that need to be installed in the large structure, such as the photovoltaic panel 4 and the storage battery 5.
[0059] Among them, there are three photovoltaic panels 4 and they are all arranged at an angle. The three photovoltaic panels 4 are arranged one by one in three directions. When installed and used, the middle photovoltaic panel 4 is arranged towards the sun, and the other two photovoltaic panels can achieve better light collection in the morning and evening, so that the photovoltaic panel 4 can get light to a greater extent throughout the day.
[0060] The bottom of the threaded support column 1 is provided with a base 6 that can penetrate into the ground for fixing to the ground. When in use, the base 6 is deeply buried in the ground.
[0061] Specifically, the height adjustment mechanism includes a moving block 8 fixedly arranged at the center of the mounting platform 2, a gear 9 fixedly arranged on the moving block 8 for driving the moving block 8 to rotate, and a servo motor 10 capable of driving the gear 9 to rotate. The output end of the servo motor 10 is arranged with a driving wheel meshing with the gear 9. This is a conventional technology and is not introduced in detail. The center of the moving block 8 is threadedly connected to the threaded support column 1, and the servo motor 10 is electrically connected to the control box 3. The servo motor 10 is controlled by the control box 3 to drive the driving wheel to rotate, thereby driving the gear 9 to rotate, driving the moving block 8 and the mounting platform 2 to rotate, so that the mounting platform 2 moves longitudinally along the axial direction of the threaded support column 1 during rotation, thereby realizing automatic height adjustment of the mounting platform 2, saving manpower, and facilitating the disassembly or maintenance of the monitoring equipment on the mounting platform 2.
[0062] When in use, the installation platform 2 can be controlled by remote control to rise and fall, and the installation platform 2 can be lowered to facilitate disassembly, assembly and maintenance of the monitoring equipment.
[0063] Embodiment 2:
[0064] On the basis of Example 1, in order to further improve the use efficiency of the photovoltaic panel 4, a cleaning structure capable of cleaning the photovoltaic panel 4 is arranged above the photovoltaic panel 4;
[0065] Specifically, the cleaning structure includes three cleaning plates 11, which are arranged one by one at the upper end of the photovoltaic panel 4 and can clean the light-facing surface of each photovoltaic panel 4. The cleaning plates 11 are provided with nozzles 12 for flushing the photovoltaic panel 4, and the nozzles 12 are arranged in a spraying direction toward the photovoltaic panel 4.
[0066] There are several nozzles 12 arranged, and the specific number, spray shape, etc. are suitable for fully cleaning the photovoltaic panel 4;
[0067] A rainwater collection device for collecting and storing rainwater is also arranged at the upper end of the mounting platform 2. The specific layout needs to be coordinated with the storage battery 5 to ensure the balance of the mounting platform 2.
[0068] A water pump 13 connected to the nozzle 12 for providing a high-pressure water source is arranged in the rainwater collection device. The water pump 13 is controlled to spray water from the nozzle 12 to flush the surface of the photovoltaic panel 4 .
[0069] The rainwater collection device includes a collection box 14 for collecting rainwater and a storage box 15 arranged at the bottom of the collection box 14 for storing rainwater;
[0070] The inlet of the collecting box 14 is provided with a spherical barrier net 16 to prevent debris from falling in, and the storage box 15 is also provided with a water level sensor 1301 to prevent the water pump 13 from being damaged. The water pump 13 will work only when there is a certain amount of water.
[0071] The working frequency of the water pump 13 can be set in advance through remote control, such as starting once a month for one minute or once a week for thirty seconds, etc. The prerequisite for starting the water pump 13 is that the water level sensor detects that there is water in the storage tank 15. When the water level sensor 1301 detects that the water level is too low, the water pump 13 will be controlled to stop.
[0072] Embodiment 3:
[0073] On the basis of Example 2, in order to avoid interference of birds on the photovoltaic panel 4 and the detection equipment, a bird-repelling mechanism 17 capable of repelling birds approaching therefrom is arranged on one side of the antenna 7 .
[0074] Specifically, the bird-repelling mechanism 17 includes a sensing device for collecting signals of approaching birds and a bird-repelling device connected to the sensing device for repelling the birds.
[0075] Wherein, the sensing device adopts an ultrasonic sensor, and the bird repeller is preferably an audio bird repeller.
[0076] When a bird approaches, the ultrasonic sensor detects that the bird is approaching, and controls the bird repeller to emit high-frequency sound waves through the control box 3, causing discomfort to the bird, so that it will immediately stay away.
[0077] Working principle: When in use, bury the base 6 underground to fix the threaded support column 1. Through remote control, control the rotation of the servo motor 10 to control the lifting of the mounting platform 2. Lower the mounting platform 2 to facilitate the installation of various monitoring equipment on the mounting platform 2. After the detection equipment is installed, connect various connecting wires to the control box 3. When wiring, pay attention to stay away from the threaded support column 1 to avoid being entangled in the threaded support column 1 during lifting;
[0078] The photovoltaic panel 4 is responsible for converting solar energy into electrical energy, and the inverter then converts direct current into alternating current and stores it in the battery 5 for overall energy supply;
[0079] When it rains, rainwater falls on the collection box 14, and debris such as leaves will be filtered by the spherical barrier net 16. The rainwater passes through the collection box 14 and flows into the storage box 15 for storage. The water source is pumped by the water pump 13 and discharged from the nozzle 12 to flush the photovoltaic panel 4. Since a plurality of nozzles 12 are arranged on each cleaning plate 11, and the photovoltaic panel 4 is arranged at an angle, it is easy to flush away floating dust, leaves, etc. on the photovoltaic panel.
[0080] When a bird approaches, the ultrasonic sensor detects a signal and controls the bird repeller to emit high-frequency sound waves through the control box 3, causing discomfort to the bird, forcing it to move away immediately.
[0081] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Thus, if these modifications and variations of the present invention fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalents, the present invention is also intended to include these modifications and variations.
