Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of forest tree monitoring technology, specifically a forest tree remote sensing monitoring device. Background Technology
[0002] In the process of forest protection, the damage caused by mudslides, insects, floods, fires, and diseases has become an undeniable natural hazard to forestry resources. To reduce losses of forestry resources, forestry environmental monitoring has received increasing attention in recent years, especially the monitoring of forest resources, disasters, and forest fires. Periodic dynamic monitoring of forestry resources allows for the early detection of various natural disasters, enabling timely preventative measures, reducing unnecessary losses, and providing objective and accurate data support for forestry bureaus and other government agencies in managing forestry resources.
[0003] Existing forest remote sensing monitoring devices achieve long-distance image capture and transmission by being mounted on drones or satellites. However, the method of mounting imaging equipment on drones requires selecting the flight time and manually controlling the drone's take-off and landing, while satellite remote sensing is too costly for plantations with limited area. Therefore, we propose a forest remote sensing monitoring device suitable for small plantations. Utility Model Content

[0023] Preferred, such as Figure 4 As shown, the main clamp assembly and the auxiliary clamp 20 are tangentially connected by a clamping rod 21, which is the main pole of the communication tower. The auxiliary clamp 20 applies an upward traction force to both ends of the male clamp 3 through the steel wire rope 18, serving as a stabilizing component of the male clamp 3.
[0024] Preferred, such as Figure 1 As shown, a threaded hole 101 is provided through the side of the female clamp 1, and a locking pin 102 is threadedly connected inside the threaded hole 101. One end of the locking pin 102 abuts against the surface of the clamping rod 21 or is threaded through the clamping rod 21, which can enhance the connection stability between the female clamp 1 and the clamping rod 21.
[0025] Preferred, such as Figure 1 As shown, the lead screw 6 passes through both ends of the interior of the slide groove 4, and a bearing is movably connected at the connection between the lead screw 6 and the slide groove 4, allowing the lead screw 6 to rotate in the vertical direction.

Through the limiting effect of the sliding groove 4 on the moving seat 7, the moving seat 7 can be kept moving along the edge of the sliding groove 4. By starting the AC motor 8, the output end of the AC motor 8 can drive the telescopic cylinder and the diagram. The image acquisition component 16 rotates horizontally to adjust its shooting angle. By activating the servo motor 15, the output of the servo motor 15 drives the image acquisition component 16 to rotate vertically by less than 180°, thereby adjusting the shooting angle of the image acquisition component 16 in the vertical direction to meet the imaging needs of different angles of the forest. By setting a main clamp assembly that can be adapted to and clamped to various communication towers and power transmission poles, the remote sensing monitoring device can be positioned and installed, so that the remote sensing detection device can be installed at a position higher than the trees for a long time, enabling long-term monitoring of small artificial forests while reducing the cost of remote sensing monitoring.
