[0038] As shown in Figures 1 to 3 In some exemplary embodiments of the present application, a seed collection assembly is provided, which mainly comprises a collection groove 10, a collection box 20, a partition structure 30, and a support 40, wherein the collection groove 10 forms a collection channel 11; the collection box 20 comprises a plurality of collection cavities 21, each of which is in communication with the collection channel 11; the partition structure 30 comprises a plurality of first partitions 31; the plurality of partition structures 30, the plurality of collection grooves 10, and the plurality of collection boxes 20 are sequentially connected in the vertical direction and fixed on the support 40, and the adjacent collection grooves 10 and the plurality of first partitions 31 form a plurality of partition cavities 50 corresponding to the collection cavities 21.
[0039] Through the above arrangement, the seed collection assembly is placed at a certain position on the ground 60, and the wind-borne seeds can be guided to the collection channel 11 by the partition structure 30 and the collection groove 10, so as to enter the collection cavity 21, thereby completing the collection of the seeds. The arrangement of the support 40 can adjust the height of the collection in the longitudinal direction, and the plurality of first partitions 31 can divide the direction of the wind-borne seeds, thereby realizing the data collection of the drifting height and direction of the seeds, so as to judge the source, direction and distance of the seeds.
[0040] As shown in Figures 1 to 3 In some exemplary embodiments of the present application, the partition cavity 50 is a single-opening cavity, which mainly guides the seeds drifting in a certain horizontal direction, so as to accurately judge the source direction of the seeds.
[0041] It can be understood that the partition cavity 50 has a certain height, for example, 10 cm to 15 cm or 15 cm to 20 cm, etc., which is limited by the first partition plate 31, that is, the space height between the upper and lower two collecting grooves 10 is limited. The above-mentioned 10 cm to 15 cm or 15 cm to 20 cm is not limited to the height of the partition cavity 50, but only as an optional embodiment.
[0042] As shown in Figures 1 to 3 and Figure 5 In some exemplary embodiments of the present application, the collecting groove 10 further comprises a plurality of collecting slopes 12, which form a groove structure, and the collecting channel 11 is formed at the bottom of the plurality of collecting slopes 12.
[0043] The collecting groove 10 has a certain horizontal span to catch seeds within a certain range, and the seeds blown by the wind are relatively light in quality and may be stagnant after contacting the collecting groove 10, that is, directly falling on the surface of the collecting groove 10, which may cause some seeds to be taken away from the collecting groove 10 in the case of sudden strong wind. Therefore, the seeds within a certain span range need to be guided into the collecting channel 11 by the above-mentioned collecting slope 12. In the above-mentioned arrangement, after the seeds contact the collecting slope 12, they will roll downward along the collecting slope under the action of gravity, thereby entering the collecting channel 11.
[0044] In some optional embodiments, the specific angle between the collecting slope 12 and the horizontal plane is between 15 to 30 degrees, which can meet the requirement of the inclination angle and will not produce a large vertical size span, and can realize the guiding effect.
[0045] As shown in Figures 1 to 3 and Figure 5 In some exemplary embodiments of the present application, a second partition plate 13 is arranged between adjacent collecting slopes 12, the second partition plate 13 is arranged one by one corresponding to the first partition plate 31, and the surface shape of the second partition plate 13 is adapted to the lower surface shape of the first partition plate 31.
[0046] The second partition plate 13 is arranged for direction separation in the collecting groove 10. Since the collecting groove 10 forms a funnel-like groove structure downward, the seeds will be deflected along the collecting slope 12, and if there are interference factors such as wind, the seeds will enter the non-corresponding collecting slope 12, thereby affecting the accuracy of the seed source. The second partition plate 13 is arranged to directly interface with the partition cavity 50, which realizes the separation effect and facilitates the accuracy of seed collection.
[0047] In some optional embodiments, as shown in Figure 5As shown, the second partition plate 13 is a plurality of partition plates crossing each other, and the plurality of second partition plates 13 extend to one end of the collection channel 11, that is, the seeds can be separated before entering the collection channel 11.
[0048] As shown, Figures 1 to 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some exemplary embodiments of the present application, the partition plate structure 30 further comprises a plurality of third partition plates 32 arranged in the vertical direction, and the third partition plates 32 enclose an isolation cavity 33, and the cross-sectional shape of the isolation cavity 33 in the vertical direction is matched with the cross-sectional shape of the collection tank 20 in the vertical direction.
[0049] The third partition plate 32 and the isolation cavity 33 are arranged to limit the circumferential freedom of the collection tank 20, and the collection tank 20 is located at the bottom of the collection groove 10, and the bottom of the collection groove 10 needs to form a separation cavity 50, and the third partition plate 32 isolates the collection tank 20 from the separation cavity 50, which meets the longitudinal space required by the collection tank 20 and does not interfere with the arrangement of the separation cavity 50.
[0050] As shown, Figures 6 to 8 In some exemplary embodiments of the present application, the collection cavity 21 is provided with a plurality of collection spaces 211 in the vertical direction, and the adjacent collection spaces 211 are connected through a seed passage 212, and the diameter of the seed passage 212 gradually increases in the vertical upward direction.
[0051] The plurality of collection spaces 211 and the seed passage 212 are arranged to distinguish seeds of different diameters to determine the size of the seeds collected at different positions.
[0052] As shown, Figures 6 to 8 In some exemplary embodiments of the present application, the seed passage 212 is arranged on a separation plate 213, and the separation plate 213 is inclined in the radial direction of the collection tank 20.
[0053] The separation plate 213 is arranged to support the seeds, and when the seeds enter and contact the separation plate 213, the seeds can roll, avoiding the seeds from falling directly in the non-seed passage area and stopping, which is beneficial to the classification of the seed caliber.
[0054] It can be understood that the collection tank 20 is arranged for classification and collection, and therefore the separation plate 213 at the bottom is not provided with a seed passage 212.
[0055] As shown, Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, in some exemplary embodiments of the present application, the collection chamber 21 is located in a block structure with a triangular cross-section along the horizontal plane, and a whole collection box 20 is formed by splicing multiple triangular blocks. Such a setting corresponds to different separation chambers 50, so as to facilitate the separate collection of seed sources and sizes.
[0056] like Figures 6 to 8 As shown, in some exemplary embodiments of the present application, the collection box 20 is further provided with a placement trough 22 , and a plurality of collection cavities 21 surround the outer side of the placement trough 22 , and each collection space 211 is connected to the placement trough 22 .
[0057] The arrangement of the trough 22 is used to prevent the desiccant from being removed so as to remove the moisture in the collection box 20 and prevent the seeds from germinating during the collection process. Because the collection process takes a certain amount of time, the seeds may germinate during the stagnation, thereby affecting the accuracy of the collection.
[0058] like Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, in some exemplary embodiments of the present application, a connected drying gap 23 is provided between the placement trough body 22 and the block structure forming the collection cavity 21. The drying gap 23 facilitates the entry of water vapor into the placement trough body 22 to achieve a better drying effect.
[0059] The drying gap 23 is roughly a vertically arranged strip trough body, which can increase the vertical surface to facilitate the passage of water vapor. At the same time, the vertical extension will not affect the falling of seeds, thereby preventing the seeds from entering the placement trough body 22.
[0060] like Figures 6 to 8 As shown, in some exemplary embodiments of the present application, the horizontal cross-section of the block structure forming the collection cavity 21 is an isosceles triangle, and the placement trough 22 is a quarter of a circle. Four corresponding block structures forming the collection cavity 21 are combined to form a collection box 20, and the partition structure 30 and the collection trough 10 form four openings in mutually perpendicular directions. This arrangement can adapt to meet the needs of seed collection in the four directions of east, west, south, and north.
[0061] like Figure 2 As shown, in some exemplary embodiments of the present application, the collection box 20 located at the bottom can be partially or completely immersed under the ground 60 without affecting the vertical height, thereby ensuring the collection effect and reducing the influence of other interference factors.
[0062] like Figures 6 to 8As shown in some exemplary embodiments of the present application, the bracket 40 is provided with a positioner 41 and a bracket rod 42, the bracket rod 42 extends in the vertical direction and is provided with a linear scale 43 on the surface, and the collecting groove 10 is limited in the vertical direction by the positioner 41.
[0063] The positioner 41 is arranged to adjust the position of the collecting groove 10 so as to adapt to different heights of the collection.
[0064] As shown in some exemplary embodiments of the present application, Figures 1 to 3 and Figure 9 The positioner 41 is specifically a plate-shaped structure, and is provided with a horizontal reference surface 411 on the surface so as to accurately adjust the vertical position with the linear scale 43.
[0065] The bracket rod 42 is specifically four, arranged in a square shape, and the bracket rod 42 is specifically provided with an L-shaped structure. The positioner 41 is correspondingly provided with four, and the plate body of the positioner 41 is provided with a clamping groove 412 at both ends, which is used to clamp two protruding parts of the bracket rod 42. Adjacent positioners 41 are fastened by a fastening screw passing through the countersunk through hole 413, so as to clamp the bracket rod 42.
[0066] The position where the two positioners 41 contact is a bevel, and the shape is adapted to form a stable connecting surface, ensuring the structural strength and reliability.
[0067] In some exemplary embodiments of the present application (not shown in the figure), the collecting groove 10, the collecting box 20, the partition structure 30 and the bracket 40 are all made of transparent material. The transparent material can make the sunlight pass through, without affecting the illumination of the plants on the ground 60.
[0068] Specifically, the transparent material can use colorless acrylic plate.
[0069] As shown in some exemplary embodiments of the present application, Figure 1 and Figure 10 The top of the bracket 40 is provided with a top plate 44, which is used to form a rainproof setting for the whole seed collecting assembly. The top plate 44 slides in the vertical direction relative to the bracket rod 42 to adapt to the top layer of the partition structure of different heights.
[0070] As shown in some exemplary embodiments of the present application, Figure 2 The limiting adjustment of the top plate 44 is realized by the positioner 41, and the principle is the same as that of the above-mentioned embodiments, which will not be described here.
[0071] As shown in some exemplary embodiments of the present application, Figure 1 and Figure 10As shown, in some exemplary embodiments of the present application, the top plate 44 is provided with an outwardly extending extension plate body 45 along the area between two adjacent support rods 42, so as to form an extended distance in multiple directions, thereby achieving better rain shielding effect.
[0072] Further, the top plate 44 and the extension plate body 45 are integrally formed, thereby reducing the number of components and facilitating assembly.
[0073] The top plate 44 and the extension plate body 45 are both transparent acrylic plates, and will not affect the light.
[0074] In a second aspect, the embodiments of the present application provide a seed collecting device, which comprises one or more seed collecting assemblies according to any of the above embodiments. The seed collecting assemblies according to any of the above embodiments can be used to collect seeds in different directions and at different heights.
[0075] The above embodiments provide a device that can more conveniently and objectively collect seeds of wind-dispersed sexually-reproducing plants, and can simply classify plant seeds of different sizes. The purpose is to more objectively measure the quantity and types of seeds of wind-dispersed sexually-reproducing plants in different directions and at different heights. The device can solve the current problem of collecting seeds that are only dispersed by wind, and can classify and quantify the seeds, which can better facilitate the study of seed bank seed rain.
[0076] It should be understood that the present application is not limited to the detailed structure and arrangement of the components proposed in the present application. The present application can have other embodiments and can be implemented and executed in various ways. The foregoing variations and modifications fall within the scope of the present application. It should be understood that the present application extends to all alternative combinations of two or more individual features mentioned in the text and / or the drawings, or apparent to those skilled in the art.
