[0027] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0028] Embodiment:

[0029] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , a simple ear trait measurement tool for corn, including an L-shaped plate 1 and an L-shaped extension plate 2 connected to each other. As Figure 2 shown, the L-shaped plate 1 and the extension plate 2 are rotatably connected by a hinge 3 and can be folded, which is convenient for carrying and storing, meeting the requirements of convenience and flexibility;

[0030] Furthermore, as Figure 1 shown, one end of the L-shaped plate 1 and the extension plate 2 adjacent to each other are respectively provided with a magnet 1 9 and a magnet 2 10 that can attract each other. When the L-shaped plate 1 and the extension plate 2 are unfolded, through the mutual attraction of the magnet 1 9 and the magnet 2 10, the stability of the unfolding can be ensured; as Figure 2 shown, at the corresponding positions on the back of the L-shaped plate 1 and the extension plate 2, a magnet 3 11 and a magnet 4 12 that can attract each other are respectively provided. When the L-shaped plate 1 and the extension plate 2 are folded, through the mutual attraction of the magnet 3 11 and the magnet 4 12, the stability of the folding can be ensured and it can be prevented from unfolding randomly.

[0031] As Figure 1 shown, a front baffle 14 is fixedly installed at one end of the L-shaped plate 1 away from the extension plate 2, and the end of the L-shaped plate 1 with the front baffle 14 is widened to form a widened part 4;

[0032] The corn can be directly arranged and placed on the L-shaped plate 1 and the extension plate 2, avoiding the situation of corn rolling and ensuring the stability of the measurement process. In order to facilitate the measurement of the ear length, as Figure 1 shown, a horizontal scale 5 can be set on the inner walls of the L-shaped plate 1 and the extension plate 2. After the ear is placed, the corresponding parameters on the horizontal scale 5 can be read to complete the measurement of the ear length (generally, the total length of ten ears of corn is measured and averaged).

[0033] As Figure 1 shown, a longitudinal scale 6 is further provided on the inner wall of the L-shaped plate 1. The ear is pressed tightly against the front baffle 14 with a triangular plate. Through the transverse scale 5 and the longitudinal scale 6, the ear diameter and the bald tip length of the ear can be quickly measured, which simplifies the operation steps, significantly improves the measurement efficiency, and reduces the labor intensity.

[0034] When the number of rows of ears and the number of grains per row of corn need to be measured, the corn is placed on the widened part 4, and then counted manually. In order to avoid miscounting, a marker pen can be used to make corresponding marks on the corn.

[0035] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, a storage box 13 is further fixedly installed on the front baffle 14 for storing auxiliary tools such as a triangular ruler and a marker pen.

[0036] In the present utility model, two support legs 7 are further provided, which are respectively fixedly installed at the bottoms of the L-shaped plate 1 and the extension plate 2. Universal wheels 8 are provided at the bottom ends of the support legs 7. By means of the support legs 7, the height is increased and the universal wheels 8 are installed, so that the device can slide left and right, thus facilitating the placement of the ears and reading, reducing the bending of the personnel during the measurement process and the walking for placing the ears left and right, and reducing the labor burden of the operator.

[0037] This design can not only measure the ear length, ear diameter, and bald tip length, but also facilitate the subsequent measurement of the number of rows of ears and the number of grains per row, enabling a device to have multiple functions, meeting the requirements for the measurement of multiple traits of corn ears, improving the comprehensive efficiency of the measurement work. In particular, this design has a simple structure and low cost, is suitable for large-scale use, and helps to improve the cost performance of breeding and production management work.

[0038] Although the embodiments of the present utility model have been shown and described, those of ordinary skill in the art can understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present utility model. The scope of the present utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
