Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of farmland management, and specifically, to a soil moisture monitoring device. Background Art

[0002] The soil moisture monitoring device monitors the soil moisture (soil water content) continuously for a long time by means of installing sensors, monitoring equipment, etc., so as to water appropriately at critical moments according to the characteristics of soil moisture, control and reduce the number of irrigation times and irrigation quota, reduce the evaporation between plants, make the irrigation water be utilized efficiently, and achieve the purpose of water saving. It is a basic work for farmland water management and regional water resources management.

[0003] The existing soil moisture monitoring device mainly consists of components such as a vertical pole, a solar panel, an intelligent acquisition box, and soil moisture sensors. Among them, the solar panel and the intelligent acquisition box are both installed on the vertical pole. The solar panel powers the system, and the intelligent acquisition box is connected to the soil moisture sensors by wired or wireless means, and the soil moisture sensors are distributed at various positions in the field for monitoring.

[0004] In some positions in the field, the soil is relatively soft. In order to stably install the vertical pole at these positions, there are mainly two existing methods. One is to dig a hole in the ground, pour concrete into the hole, and then fix the bottom end of the vertical pole to the concrete by bolts; the other is to dig a hole in the ground, fill the hole with gravel or pebbles, put the bottom of the vertical pole into the hole, and then fill it with soil and tamp it locally. Both methods are relatively troublesome to operate.

[0005] In order to solve the above existing problems, people have been seeking an ideal technical solution. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of the utility model is to aim at the deficiencies of the existing technology, and thus provide a soil moisture monitoring device that is convenient to be fixed on soft soil.

[0007] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a soil moisture monitoring device, including a solar panel, an intelligent acquisition box, a plurality of soil moisture sensors, two columns, a low-level planar frame, and a high-level planar frame. The bottom end of each column is provided with a sharp corner. The two ends of the low-level planar frame are installed on the two columns, and the two ends of the high-level planar frame are also installed on the two columns. The intelligent acquisition box is clamped between the low-level planar frame and the high-level planar frame, and the solar panel is installed at the top ends of the two columns.

[0008] Based on the above, footrest plates are arranged on both sides of the middle and lower parts of each column.

[0009] Based on the above, square holes and locking bolts are respectively arranged at both ends of the lower planar frame and both ends of the upper planar frame corresponding to the two columns, and the columns are inserted into the square holes and tightened by the locking bolts.

[0010] Based on the above, a driving handwheel is arranged at the outer end of the locking bolt.

[0011] Based on the above, a rectangular frame is arranged in the middle of the lower planar frame, and two cross beams are arranged at intervals in the rectangular frame. The space between the two cross beams and the rectangular frame can allow the three probes on the soil moisture sensor to pass through, so as to place the soil moisture sensor.

[0012] The utility model has substantial features and progress compared with the prior art. Specifically, the utility model has the following advantages:

[0013] (1) By inserting the two columns into the soil to form two support points, compared with the traditional single-point support, the stability is greatly improved. The setting of the sharp corners facilitates the downward penetration in soft soil, and the setting of the footrest plate facilitates the staff to step on and apply downward force, which is convenient for installation.

[0014] (2) By tightening or loosening the locking bolt, the installation height of the intelligent acquisition box can be adjusted; the setting of the driving handwheel facilitates the operation of the staff.

[0015] (3) By arranging the cross beam in the rectangular frame, it can be used to place the soil moisture sensor, which is convenient for the staff to take and place. Description of the Drawings

[0020] The following is a detailed description of the technical solutions of the utility model through specific embodiments.

[0021] As shown Figures 1 - 3 in the figure, a soil moisture monitoring device includes a solar panel 1, an intelligent acquisition box 2, a plurality of soil moisture sensors 3, two columns 4, a low-level planar frame 5 and a high-level planar frame 6. The bottom end of each column 4 is provided with a sharp corner 7, and pedal plates 8 are arranged on both sides of the middle and lower parts of each column 4. The two ends of the low-level planar frame 5 are installed on the two columns 4, and the two ends of the high-level planar frame 6 are also installed on the two columns 4. The intelligent acquisition box 2 is clamped between the low-level planar frame 5 and the high-level planar frame 6. Specifically, card slots can be opened on the top surface of the low-level planar frame 5 and the bottom surface of the high-level planar frame 6 respectively; the solar panel 1 is installed at the top ends of the two columns 4.

[0022] During specific use, on relatively soft soil, the sharp corners 7 of the two columns 4 are facing downwards and are probed into the deep soil. The arrangement of the pedal plates 8 facilitates the staff to step on and apply downward force, inserting the lower parts of the two columns 4 into the soil to form two support points. Compared with the traditional single-point support, the stability is greatly improved, and the installation is more convenient.

[0023] To facilitate the adjustment of the height of the intelligent acquisition box 2, square holes 9 and locking bolts 10 are respectively arranged at the two ends of the low-level planar frame 5 and the two ends of the high-level planar frame 6 corresponding to the two columns 4. The column 4 passes through the square hole 4 and is tightened by the locking bolt 10. A driving handwheel 11 is arranged at the outer end of the locking bolt 10; during use, by rotating the driving handwheel 11, the locking bolt 10 is loosened or tightened, thereby adjusting the heights of the low-level planar frame 5 and the high-level planar frame 6.

[0024] To facilitate the placement of a plurality of soil moisture sensors 3, a rectangular frame is arranged in the middle of the low-level planar frame 5. Two cross beams 12 are arranged at intervals within the rectangular frame. The empty spaces 13 between the two cross beams 12 and the rectangular frame can allow the three probes 31 on the soil moisture sensor 3 to pass through, so as to place the soil moisture sensor 3, which is convenient for the staff to take and place.

[0025] Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that: still modifications can be made to the specific implementation manners of the present invention or equivalent replacements can be made to some technical features; without departing from the spirit of the technical solutions of the present invention, they should all be covered within the scope of the technical solutions claimed by the present invention.
