[0024] Please see Figure 1-2This utility model provides an embodiment of an artificial nest system for monitoring the living habits of birds, including an installation plate 1. An artificial nest 2 is provided on the front surface of the installation plate 1. Positioning plates 3 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of both sides of the artificial nest 2. Positioning plates 3 have positioning grooves, and alignment plates 4 are provided within the positioning grooves. Alignment plates 4 are fixedly connected to the installation plate 1. A locking plate 5 is slidably inserted into one side of the positioning plate 3. A beveled section 6 is provided on the inner side wall of one end of the locking plate 5. A corresponding locking groove is provided on the outer side wall of one side of the alignment plate 4. A traction plate 7 is fixedly connected to one end of the alignment plate 4. Elastic mechanisms 8 are fixedly connected to both ends of the traction plate 7 and the positioning plate 3. The installation plate 1 is also fixedly connected to an installation assembly, which includes a horizontal plate 9 and an assembly plate 10 mounted on the horizontal plate 9. A monitoring probe 11 is fixedly connected to the assembly plate 10. In specific implementation, the horizontal plate 9 and the assembly plate 10 can be configured according to the structure of the artificial nest 2 so that the monitoring probe 11 mounted on the assembly plate 10 can monitor the interior of the artificial nest 1. Figure 1 In the structure shown, monitoring probes 11 are installed at both ends of the assembly plate 10 so that the artificial bird nest 2 can be monitored from two angles.
[0025] In the specific implementation process, the side wall of the artificial bird's nest 2 is provided with an observation port, and a transparent plate 12 is installed on the observation port. The transparent plate 12 can be made of glass. In the specific implementation, the number and position of the observation port and the transparent plate 12 correspond and match the number and position of the monitoring probes 11 that need to be installed. The monitoring probes 11 face the transparent plate 12 so that the monitoring probes 11 can monitor the interior of the artificial bird's nest 2 through the transparent plate 12.
[0026] In the specific implementation process, the horizontal plate 9 is also fixedly connected to an equipment box 13. The equipment box 13 has an openable and closable cover. The equipment box 13 contains a storage battery 14 and a signal transceiver 15, and the signal transceiver 15 is connected to the storage battery 14. A temperature and humidity sensor 16 and a light sensor 17 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the equipment box 13, and the signal transceiver 15 is electrically connected to the temperature and humidity sensor 16 and the light sensor 17. Specifically, the mounting plate 1 is fixed in the designated installation area, and the positioning plates 3 on both sides of the artificial bird's nest 2 are fitted onto the alignment plate 4. At this time, the inclined section 6 on the clamping plate 5 will press against the alignment plate 4, and the clamping plate 5 will move along the positioning plate 3. The elastic mechanism 8 is stretched by the traction plate 7. After the alignment plate 4 is inserted into the positioning plate 3, the elasticity of the elastic mechanism 8 causes the traction plate 7 to push the clamping plate 5 back, thereby locking it into the slot on the alignment plate 4 to fix the artificial bird's nest 2. The monitoring probe 11 installed on the assembly plate 10 monitors the inside of the artificial bird's nest 2, and the temperature and humidity sensor 16 and the light sensor 17 collect environmental data, which are then transmitted through the signal transceiver 15.
[0027] In this embodiment, the beveled section 6 on the card plate 5 is a polished surface to reduce frictional resistance; the four corners of the mounting plate 1 are provided with assembly holes, and fixing nails 18 are inserted into the assembly holes to facilitate fixing the mounting plate 1; the elastic mechanism 8 is a spring with high availability.
[0028] Working principle: First, fix the mounting plate 1 in the designated installation area. Then, attach the positioning plates 3 on both sides of the artificial bird's nest 2 to the alignment plate 4. At this time, the inclined section 6 on the clamping plate 5 will press against the alignment plate 4. The clamping plate 5 will move along the positioning plate 3. The elastic mechanism 8 is stretched by the traction plate 7. After the alignment plate 4 is inserted into the positioning plate 3, the elasticity of the elastic mechanism 8 will cause the traction plate 7 to push the clamping plate 5 back, thereby locking it into the slot on the alignment plate 4 to fix the artificial bird's nest 2. The monitoring probe 11 installed on the bottom of the assembly plate 10 monitors the inside of the artificial bird's nest 2. The temperature and humidity sensor 16 and the light sensor 17 collect environmental data and then transmit the signal through the signal transceiver 15.
[0029] The artificial bird nest 2 can be decorated according to needs to make it more similar to an actual bird nest. After the artificial nest system of this utility model is installed in a suitable location, it can attract wild birds to mate and breed. The monitoring probe 11 collects relevant images of bird activities in real time, and the temperature and humidity sensor 16 and the light sensor 17 collect environmental data such as temperature, humidity, and light in real time. Based on the collected data, the living habits of specific birds can be obtained, accumulating experience and data for the artificial breeding and rescue of corresponding wild birds. In specific applications, the artificial nest system can be set in areas that are safe for birds, avoiding wild birds from setting up near high-voltage lines, high-voltage poles, etc.
[0030] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as illustrative and non-restrictive, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims, not the foregoing description, and all variations within the meaning and range of equivalents of the claims are intended to be encompassed within the present invention.
