[0022] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0023] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 An embodiment of this utility model provides a multifunctional agricultural information collection camera, including a support rod 1, a camera 2 fixedly connected to the right side of the support rod 1, a fixed outer shell 3 installed on the outer wall of the camera 2, a glass plate 4 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixed outer shell 3, a cleaning brush 5 slidably connected to the outer wall of the glass plate 4, a moving rod 6 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the cleaning brush 5, a connecting shaft 7 fixedly connected to the bottom end of the moving rod 6, a moving frame 8 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting shaft 7, a connecting frame 9 rotatably connected to the outer wall of the moving frame 8, a control motor 11 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixed outer shell 3, a rotating disk 10 fixedly connected to the output end of the control motor 11, and a protective component provided on the left side of the support rod 1.

[0024] Specifically, by installing a fixed housing 3 on the outer wall of the camera 2, the glass plate 4 can cover the lens of the camera 2 through the fixed housing 3. Then, by controlling the motor 11 to be fixed inside the fixed housing 3, the rotating disk 10 can drive the connecting frame 9 and the moving frame 8 through the control motor 11. The moving frame 8 drives the moving rod 6 and the cleaning brush 5 to swing through the connecting shaft 7, so that the cleaning brush 5 can clean the glass plate 4, thereby preventing the camera 2 from having stains in the shooting angle.

[0025] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 The protective components include a control box 13, which is fixedly connected to the left side of the support rod 1. Two cooling fans 16 are installed on the inner wall of the control box 13. Insect screens 15 are slidably connected to the outer wall of the cooling fans 16. Multiple rain shields 14 are fixedly connected to both the front and rear ends of the control box 13. Two drying boxes 17 are placed on the inner wall of the control box 13.

[0026] Specifically, by opening ventilation holes on the front and rear sides of the control box 13 and installing multiple rain shields 14 outside the ventilation holes, rainwater can be prevented from entering the control box 13. Insect screens 15 and cooling fans 16 are then installed inside the ventilation holes. The insect screens 15 can prevent insects from entering the control box 13, and the cooling fans 16 can prevent the internal electronic components from being damaged due to excessive temperature inside the control box 13. The drying box 17 can keep the inside of the control box 13 dry, thus protecting the internal electronic components of the control box 13.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 A solar panel 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the support rod 1.

[0028] Specifically, the solar panel 12 is installed at the top of the support rod 1, so that when the solar panel 12 generates electricity through sunlight, it can reduce the power consumption of the camera 2, thereby achieving the effect of energy conservation and emission reduction.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The connecting shaft 7 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixed housing 3, the connecting frame 9 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the rotating disk 10, the rotating disk 10 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixed housing 3, the moving frame 8 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixed housing 3, and the cleaning brush 5 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the fixed housing 3.

[0030] Specifically, the connecting shaft 7 is rotatably connected inside the fixed housing 3. It contacts the inner wall of the fixed housing 3 through the rotating disk 10 and the moving frame 8. When the control motor 11 drives the rotating disk 10, and the moving frame 8 drives the connecting shaft 7 to rotate through the connecting frame 9, the moving frame 8 and the rotating disk 10 rotate on the inner wall of the fixed housing 3. This can prevent the moving frame 8 and the rotating disk 10 from shaking during transmission, which would cause the connecting shaft 7 to shake and prevent the cleaning brush 5 from fully contacting the glass plate 4, leaving dirt residue on the outer wall of the glass plate 4.

[0031] Reference Figure 4 The insect net 15 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the control box 13, and the insect net 15 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the rain shield 14.

[0032] Specifically, by clamping the insect net 15 between the rain shield 14 and the cooling fan 16, the insect net 15 can be fixed when the cooling fan 16 is fixed, which facilitates the replacement and fixation of the insect net 15.

[0033] Working principle: The support pole 1 is installed in the agricultural field, and the camera 2, solar panel 12, and control box 13 are installed on the support pole 1 respectively. By installing the fixed housing 3 on the bottom outer wall of the camera 2, the top part of the fixed housing 3 and the glass plate 4 can completely cover the shooting lens of the camera 2, so as to prevent the shooting lens of the camera 2 from getting dirty. When the glass plate 4 gets dirty, the control motor 11 is started and drives the rotating disk 10. The rotating disk 10 drives the moving frame 8 and the connecting shaft 7 through the connecting frame 9. The connecting shaft 7 drives the moving rod 6 and the cleaning brush 5 to swing, so that the cleaning brush 5 cleans the dirt on the glass plate 4, thereby preventing the camera 2 from having dirt in the shooting angle.

[0034] By installing rain shields 14, insect screens 15, and cooling fans 16 at the front and rear ends of the control box 13, the front cooling fan 16 draws air into the control box 13, and the rear cooling fan 16 exhausts the air. This can dissipate the heat generated inside the control box 13 by the electronic components and the external environment. The insect screen 15 can prevent insects from entering the control box 13, the rain shield 14 can prevent rainwater from entering the control box 13, and the drying box 17 can keep the inside of the control box 13 dry, thus protecting the electronic components inside the control box 13.

[0035] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
