Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of plant growth monitoring, in particular to a plant growth dynamic sensor. Background Art

[0002] Tree maintenance is a systematic and complex project in the process of ecological restoration. At present, it mainly relies on manual care. That is, workers make corresponding water and fertilizer supply and maintenance management according to the growth law of trees, pest control at different growth stages, and the growth conditions of different trees. Due to the high degree of professionalism in tree maintenance, especially for precious tree species, it is difficult for ordinary workers to grasp the habits of trees, resulting in deviations in the tree maintenance process. Trees often develop diseases, which affect the health and vigorous growth of trees and even cause tree necrosis.

[0003] The purpose of measuring the thickness of tree trunks at the same time is to calculate the biomass of the forest and the yield of wood. By measuring the diameter and height of the tree trunks, the volume of the trees can be calculated, and the total biomass of the forest can be estimated accordingly. However, in the existing technology, when measuring the diameter of the tree trunk, a tape measure is usually used for measurement. The measurement not only requires carrying tools, but also has certain errors. In view of this, we propose a plant growth dynamic sensor. Utility Model Content

[0013] (2) The plant growth dynamic sensor, after the rotating shaft rotates, synchronously drives the pointer to rotate, and completes the measurement with the help of the cooperation between the pointer and the scale groove. At the same time, when the diameter changes, the connecting rod will also be used to change the distance between the two stretching plates. When the distance between the two stretching plates changes, the second spring will be stretched synchronously, and when working normally, the second spring and the spring will be used to fix the entire device on the tree trunk. Through the above structure, not only can the diameter be directly observed through the cooperation between the scale groove and the pointer, but the cooperation between the second spring and the spring can also be used to complete the fixation between the trunk, thereby improving the overall stability.
