In addition, the terms "first", "second", and "third" are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0025] As Figures 1-6 shown, an underwater environment ecological monitoring device proposed by the present invention includes a water surface mobile carrier 1 and an underwater camera 2. The underwater camera 2 is installed directly below the water surface mobile carrier 1. A driving member 3 is installed at the bottom of the water surface mobile carrier 1. A telescopic rod 4 is installed below the driving member 3. The driving member 3 drives the telescopic rod 4 to move up and down. The telescopic rod 4 drives the underwater camera 2 to move. The underwater camera 2 can monitor the underwater environment at different depths, which is beneficial to expanding the underwater ecological monitoring range of the underwater camera 2. A variety of sensors 18 are installed on the top wall of the underwater camera 2, which can monitor water quality parameters such as water depth, water temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH value, salinity, etc., as well as physical indicators such as water flow velocity and water pressure in real time;
[0026] As Figure 3 、 4As shown in the figure, collection cylinders 5 are provided on both sides of the underwater camera 2. The collection cylinders 5 are fixed by clamps 6. One end of the collection cylinder 5 close to the lens direction of the underwater camera 2 is a conical structure. The top surface of the sealing top plate 11 is arc-shaped to reduce the resistance in water. A constriction groove 7 is provided on the side wall of the collection cylinder 5. The clamp 6 is located in the constriction groove 7 to limit the clamp 6, facilitating the stable fixation of the collection cylinder 5. Multiple collection chambers 8 are provided in the collection cylinder 5. A sealed connection cylinder 9 is slidably provided at the top of the collection chamber 8. The connection cylinder 9 is a hollow cylindrical structure with an open bottom. A collection port 10 is provided on one side of the top of the connection cylinder 9 in the lens direction of the underwater camera. Water samples enter the connection cylinder 9 from the collection port 10 and fall into the collection chamber 8 from the bottom of the connection cylinder 9 for collection.
[0027] As Figure 4 , 5 shown in the figure, a sealing top plate 11 is fixedly connected to the top wall of the connection cylinder 9. Activity chambers 12 are provided on both sides of the collection cylinder 5. Connection columns 13 penetrating the top of the activity chamber 12 are fixed under the sealing top plate 11 on both sides of the connection cylinder 9. An electric push rod 15 is fixed under the top wall of one side of the activity chamber 12. An external connection plate 14 is fixed under the movable end of the electric push rod 15. One side of the external connection plate 14 is fixed on the connection column 13. The electric push rod 15 drives the external connection plate 14 and the connection column 13 downward, thereby driving the connection cylinder 9 and the sealing top plate 11 as a whole downward to seal the top of the collection chamber 8 and collect water samples at different depths respectively. The height of the activity chamber 12 is greater than the height of the connection column 13 to facilitate the movement of the connection column 13 in the activity chamber 12. The bottom wall of the sealing top plate 11 is arc-shaped and closely adheres to the outer side wall of the collection cylinder 5 to seal the collection chamber 8.
[0028] As Figure 6 shown in the figure, a battery 16 and a controller 17 are provided inside one end of the collection cylinder 5 away from the lens direction of the underwater camera 2. The battery 16 is electrically connected to the electric telescopic rod 4 and the controller 17 to control the movement of the electric push rod 15.
[0029] During specific use, the water surface mobile carrier 1 is located on the water surface. The rotation of the rear propeller provides a forward acting force to push the water surface mobile carrier 1 forward. The driving member 3 drives the telescopic rod 4 to move downward, thereby driving the underwater camera 2 to move downward in the water to observe the underwater environment at different depths. The underwater camera 2 can transmit the recorded and photographed images to the control component. The operator can monitor the underwater environment in real time through the control component. A variety of sensors 18 can monitor water quality parameters such as water depth, water temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH value, salinity, etc., as well as physical indicators such as water flow speed and water pressure in real time. At the same time, through specific biological sensors 18, the dynamic changes of biological communities such as microorganisms and plankton in the water can also be detected to achieve a comprehensive monitoring of the underwater ecosystem.
[0030] The collection cylinder 5 as a whole has good waterproof performance. When it is necessary to collect water samples in layers, the water depth is monitored by the sensor 18, and the electric push rod 15 is started. The electric push rod 15 drives the external connection plate 14 and the connecting column 13 to move upward, thereby driving the sealing top plate 11 and the connecting cylinder 9 to move upward, moving the collection port 10 out of the collection cavity 8. The water sample enters the connecting cylinder 9 from the collection port 10 and falls into the collection cavity 8 for collection. After a period of time, the electric push rod 15 drives the external connection plate 14 and the connecting column 13 to move downward, making the bottom wall of the sealing top plate 11 closely attached to the top wall of the collection cylinder 5, and moving the collection port 10 into the collection cavity 8 to seal the collection cavity 8. Repeat the above operations to collect water samples from different water layers. After the collection is completed, the entire device is removed from the water surface, the hoop 6 is untied, and the collection cylinder 5 is removed. The water sample in the collection cavity 8 is taken out by moving the collection port 10 out of the collection cavity 8.
[0031] The above describes the present utility model and its implementation manners. Such description is not restrictive. What is shown in the drawings is only one of the implementation manners of the present utility model, and the actual structure is not limited thereto. All in all, if those of ordinary skill in the art are inspired by it and design, without creative efforts, structural manners and embodiments similar to the technical solution without departing from the creative purpose of the present utility model, they shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
