[0019] The following is a detailed description of the growth data acquisition and storage device for plant phenological observation provided by the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. At the same time, it is explained here that in order to make the embodiments more detailed, the following embodiments are preferred embodiments, and for some well-known technologies, those skilled in the art may also adopt other alternative methods.
[0020] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a growth data collection and storage device for plant phenology observation, including a support base 1, a fixed platform 2 is fixedly connected to the center of the top of the support base 1, and a fixing component 3 for fixing the plant pot is provided on the top of the fixing platform 2. The fixing component 3 includes four limiting grooves annularly opened at the top of the fixing platform 2, and a guide rod 301 is fixedly connected to the inside of each limiting groove. The outside of the guide rod 301 is slidably connected to a limiting member 302, and a return spring 303 is fixedly connected between the limiting member 302 and the inner wall of the limiting groove. The return spring 303 is sleeved on the outside of the guide rod 301, and a fitting portion 304 is provided on one side of the top of the limiting member 302, and a guide surface is provided above the fitting portion 304. , a deformation cavity 305 is opened inside the limiting member 302, and the plant pot is placed in the top center of the fixing platform 2 to ensure that the bottom of the pot is in good contact with the surface of the fixing platform 2. Observe the positions of the four limiting grooves to ensure that the bottom of the pot corresponds to these limiting grooves, and gently press down the pot so that its bottom contacts the opening of the limiting groove. When the bottom of the pot contacts the opening of the limiting groove, it will push the limiting member 302 to slide downward along the guide rod 301. The movement of the limiting member 302 will compress the reset spring 303, and at the same time, the deformation cavity 305 will undergo a slight deformation to adapt to the shape of the bottom of the pot. As the pot continues to be pressed down, the fitting part 304 of the limiting member 302 will gradually contact the bottom of the pot. The design of the guide surface makes it easier for the potted plant to push the limiter 302 when it moves downward, and reduces friction and resistance. When the bottom of the potted plant completely enters the limiter groove, the elastic force of the return spring 303 pushes the limiter 302 back to its original position, thereby tightly clamping the bottom of the potted plant to achieve fixation. Gently shake the potted plant to check whether it is firmly fixed on the fixing platform 2. If necessary, the position of the potted plant can be fine-tuned to ensure that it is in the best observation state. Through the combined design of the limiter 302 and the return spring 303, the fixing component 3 can firmly clamp the plant pot to prevent it from tipping over or moving during the observation process. This stability ensures the accuracy and reliability of the observation data. The deformable cavity 305 inside 302 can adapt to the bottoms of potted plants of different shapes and sizes, thereby improving the versatility and adaptability of the fixing component 3. This enables the device to be used to observe different types of plants, expanding its scope of application. The design of the fixing component 3 makes the fixing and releasing process of the potted plants simple and quick. The user only needs to place the potted plants on the fixing platform 2 and press down gently to complete the fixing operation without using additional tools or equipment. The design of the fitting portion 304 and the guide surface reduces the friction and damage to the potted plants during the fixing process. The stable fixing component 3 makes the observation process smoother and more efficient. The user can focus on observing and analyzing data without worrying about the stability of the potted plants.

The top of the adjustment component is fixedly connected to a top plate 6, and cameras 7 are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the top plate 6. A data storage module 8 is provided on the top of the top plate 6. The adjustment component includes an adjustment motor fixedly connected to the inside of the support base 1, and a rotating gear 9 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the adjustment motor. The top of the support base 1 is rotatably connected to a rotating disk 401, and an inner tooth 403 is provided in the inner wall of the rotating disk 401. The inner tooth 403 is meshed with one side of the rotating gear 9. A connecting plate 402 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer side of the rotating disk 401, and the top of one end of the connecting plate 402 is fixedly connected to an electric lifting rod 4. The top of the electric lifting rod 4 The end is fixedly connected to the bottom of the top plate 6, and arc-shaped baffles 5 are fixedly connected on both sides of the electric lifting rod 4. Before any adjustment operation is performed, the adjustment motor is in a stationary state, and the rotating gear 9 keeps meshing with the inner teeth 403 of the rotating disk 401 but there is no relative movement. The electric lifting rod 4 is at an initial height, the top plate 6 and the camera 7 and data storage module 8 thereon are in a preset position. When the orientation of data collection needs to be changed, the adjustment motor is started, and the output shaft of the adjustment motor drives the rotating gear 9 to rotate. Since the rotating gear 9 and the inner teeth 403 of the rotating disk 401 are meshed with each other, the rotating disk 401 will rotate accordingly. The rotation of the rotating disk 401 drives the electric lifting rod 4 and the top plate 6, camera 7 and data storage module 8 thereon through the connecting plate 402. The camera head 7 and the data storage module 8 rotate together, thereby changing the direction of data collection. After the direction adjustment is completed, if the height of data collection needs to be further changed, the electric lifting rod 4 can be started. The telescopic movement of the electric lifting rod 4 drives the top plate 6 and the camera head 7 and the data storage module 8 thereon to move up and down, thereby changing the height of data collection. The arc-shaped baffle 5 moves with the telescopic movement of the electric lifting rod 4 to protect the plants and prevent them from being accidentally damaged during the movement.

This flexibility helps to improve the comprehensiveness and accuracy of data collection and provide richer information for plant phenology research. The design of the adjustment component enables the device to adapt to the observation needs of plants of different types and growth stages. By adjusting the orientation and height of the camera 7, plants at different heights and positions can be observed, thereby expanding the application range of the device. The automated operation of the adjustment component reduces the need for manual intervention, making the observation process more efficient and convenient. By precisely adjusting the orientation and height of the camera 7, the accuracy and reliability of data collection can be ensured. This precision helps to reduce observation errors and improve the accuracy and credibility of data analysis.

When the bottom of the pot contacts the opening of the limit groove, it pushes the limit member 302 to slide downward along the guide rod 301. The movement of the limit member 302 compresses the reset spring 303, and at the same time, the deformation cavity 305 will undergo a slight deformation to adapt to the shape of the bottom of the pot. As the pot continues to move, Continue to press down, and the fitting part 304 of the limiter 302 will gradually contact and fit with the bottom of the potted plant. The design of the guide surface makes it easier for the potted plant to push the limiter 302 when moving downward, and reduces friction and resistance. When the bottom of the potted plant completely enters the limiting groove, the elastic force of the return spring 303 will push the limiter 302 back to its original position, thereby tightly clamping the bottom of the potted plant to achieve fixation. Gently shake the potted plant to check whether it is firmly fixed on the fixing platform 2. If necessary, you can fine-tune the position of the potted plant to ensure that it is in the best observation state. Before any adjustment operation is performed, the adjustment motor is at rest. In the state, the rotating gear 9 and the inner teeth 403 of the rotating disk 401 are kept in meshing but without relative movement, the electric lifting rod 4 is at the initial height, the top plate 6 and the camera 7 and the data storage module 8 thereon are in the preset position, and when it is necessary to change the direction of data collection, the adjusting motor is started, and the output shaft of the adjusting motor drives the rotating gear 9 to rotate. Since the rotating gear 9 and the inner teeth 403 of the rotating disk 401 are meshed with each other, the rotating disk 401 will rotate accordingly. The rotation of the rotating disk 401 drives the electric lifting rod 4 and the top plate 6, the camera 7 and the data storage module 8 thereon to rotate together through the connecting plate 402 Rotate, thereby changing the orientation of data collection. After the orientation adjustment is completed, if you need to further change the height of data collection, you can start the electric lifting rod 4. The telescopic movement of the electric lifting rod 4 drives the top plate 6 and the camera 7 and data storage module 8 thereon to move up and down, thereby changing the height of data collection. The arc-shaped baffle 5 moves with the telescopic movement of the electric lifting rod 4, which plays a role in protecting the plants and preventing them from being accidentally damaged during movement. After the adjustment is completed, the camera 7 starts to collect the growth data of the plants, and the collected data is stored through the data storage module 8 for subsequent analysis and processing.
