Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of soil and water monitoring, specifically a soil and water conservation monitoring device. Background Technology

[0002] Soil and water conservation is the work of preventing soil erosion, protecting, improving and rationally utilizing soil and water resources, increasing land productivity, and establishing a good ecological environment. Soil and water conservation monitoring probes are a special tool for soil and water conservation monitoring. They are mainly used to measure soil erosion and are characterized by being portable, flexible in implementation, simple to set up, and inexpensive. They are widely used in soil and water conservation monitoring work.

[0003] Currently, most field monitoring for soil and water conservation uses the stake insertion method. This method involves inserting several thin stakes into the ground in a regular pattern on a slope plot, while minimizing disturbance to the surface soil. The stakes are marked with positions level with the soil surface as the initial elevation points. After rainfall, the amount of soil erosion is calculated by observing the thickness of the reduced surface soil layer.

[0004] Existing technologies related to the insertion method include:

[0005] 1) The patent application CN220271326U discloses a safety probe and measuring device for soil and water conservation monitoring. In this application, the measuring device includes a probe base, a probe, and a hammer-impact protective cap. The upper surface of the probe base has a groove, and multiple sliders are slidably connected inside the groove. A guide tube is fixedly installed at the center of the upper surface of the slider. A ruler is fixedly installed at the front of the groove. An indicator is provided on the upper surface of the slider near the ruler. A bolt is threadedly connected to the upper surface of the slider. A through hole is provided on the outer wall of the uppermost end of the probe. The device of this utility model places the probe base in the area to be monitored, pulls the slider to move the slider along the groove, and uses the ruler and indicator to distribute multiple sliders at equal intervals. The probe is placed inside the guide tube, the hammer-impact protective cap is placed on the top of the probe, and finally, multiple probes are hammered into the ground in sequence. Multiple probes can be inserted without repeated measurements, which greatly improves the efficiency of probe insertion.

[0006] 2) CN217212690U discloses a probe device for soil and water conservation monitoring. In this application, the probe device includes a rod with a pointed cone at its lower end. A height-adjustable connector is mounted on the upper part of the rod. Multiple insert rods are movably mounted on the connector along the circumference of the rod. Each insert rod is fixed to the connector by fastening bolts. Multiple anti-reverse claws are pivotally connected to the pointed cone evenly along its circumference. Assembly grooves are constructed on the pointed cone at positions corresponding to each anti-reverse claw. Each anti-reverse claw is assembled within an assembly groove, and its lower end is pivotally connected to the two side walls of the assembly groove. A layer of foamed rubber is fixed to the inner wall of the assembly groove. This utility model is adaptable to fixing on slopes of different gradients, improving the stability of its installation and fixing, thereby enabling accurate monitoring of soil and water conservation conditions.

[0007] The main purpose of document 2 is to adapt to the fixing on slopes with different gradients. The insertion rod of document 2 also needs to be configured with a 1 square meter sample box to realize point monitoring. In order to reduce the carrying and purchase of sample boxes, document 1 adopts structures such as grooves and rulers to realize point monitoring. However, the point monitoring range of document 1 is limited, and it can only measure 3 points in the area. It cannot be expanded, which makes the applicability of the device low. Based on this, this utility model proposes a soil and water conservation monitoring device. This monitoring device adopts a modular and expandable design. Multiple insertion rod modules can be spliced ​​into a rectangle or square according to the point measurement needs in the area. By inserting the insertion rod unit in the point of the rectangular or square area, the soil and water conservation monitoring of the point is carried out using the insertion rod unit. On the one hand, the modular structure of the device of this utility model is simpler and saves the use of sample boxes. On the other hand, because the device of this utility model is modular, it can be expanded and combined according to needs, making it more convenient to use. Utility Model Content
