[0002] Tropical rainforests, as one of the most biodiverse ecosystems on Earth, rely heavily on litter for their nutrient cycling and energy flow. Efficient collection and research of tropical rainforest litter can provide crucial data support for nutrient cycling and carbon storage estimation within the ecosystem, which is of great significance for a deeper understanding of tropical rainforest ecosystem functions and maintaining their ecological balance.

[0003] Currently, most existing tropical rainforest litter collection devices on the market adopt traditional fixed structures, which present numerous problems in practical use. Firstly, the connection methods between the various components are complex, often requiring tedious assembly with tools, consuming significant time and manpower. During storage and transportation, the large size and difficulty in disassembling the overall structure increase transportation costs and make handling inconvenient. Secondly, when inserted into the ground, the device lacks effective securing measures, relying solely on simple support legs for contact with the ground. In the complex and varied terrain and humid environment of the tropical rainforest, this makes it prone to swaying or even tipping over, resulting in incomplete litter collection and affecting the accuracy of research data. Furthermore, during transportation, the fixing components used for insertion into the ground are exposed, making them susceptible to collision damage and posing safety hazards. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a tropical rainforest litter collection device that allows for rapid installation and disassembly, facilitates storage and transportation, and provides good stability and safety during use.

[0004] In response to this technical problem, this application proposes a litter collection device for tropical rainforests. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Reference Figures 1-3This utility model provides an embodiment of a rainforest litter collection device, comprising a collection net 1, a net bag support 2 fixedly connected to the outside of the collection net 1, connecting posts 3 fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the net bag support 2, a support post 11 at the bottom of the connecting post 3, a rotating block 12 fixedly connected to the top of the support post 11, positioning blocks 13 fixedly connected to the upper parts of both sides of the rotating block 12, a slot 14 provided at the top of the positioning block 13, a rotating shaft 17 fixedly connected to the bottom of both sides of the support post 11, a housing 18 rotatably connected to the side of the rotating shaft 17, and a fixing post 15 fixedly connected to the bottom of the support post 11. A soil-breaking cone 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom of pile 15. Sliding grooves are opened on both sides of the connecting column 3. A lever 7 is installed inside the sliding groove. A lever block 8 is installed at one end of the outer side of the lever 7. A locking block 6 is installed at one end of the inner side of the lever 7. A sliding rod 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the locking block 6. A spring 4 is sleeved on the outer side of the sliding rod 5. A positioning groove 10 is opened at the bottom of the connecting column 3. A rotating groove 9 is opened at the bottom of the connecting column 3. The rotating groove 9 is above the positioning groove 10. The lower side of the rotating block 12 is set in the positioning groove 10. The upper side of the rotating block 12 is set in the rotating groove 9. The positioning block 13 is set in the rotating groove 9. The locking block 6 is set in the locking groove 14.

[0026] Specifically, a net bag support 2 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the collection net 1, and a connecting column 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the net bag support 2. All are fixedly connected to each other, increasing the overall stability of the upper net bag structure. The bottom of the connecting column 3 has a positioning groove 10 and a rotating groove 9. The top of the support column 11 has a rotating block 12 and a positioning block 13. By inserting the positioning block 13 into the positioning groove 10, the rotating block 12 falls into the rotating groove 9. Rotation causes the rotating block 12 to rotate along the rotating groove 9 to the corresponding position. The positioning block 12 is then engaged with the positioning block 13 by the locking block 6 in the connecting column 3. The slot 14 at the top of block 13 enables a quick and secure connection between the support column 11 and the connecting column 3. The spring 4 is sleeved on the outside of the slide rod 5, which is located on the top of the block 6. The side of the block 6 is connected to one side of the lever 7, and the other side of the lever 7 is fixedly connected to the lever 8. By lifting the lever 8, the lever 7 can be moved upward, thereby compressing the spring 4 of the block 6 and moving it upward along the slide rod 5, further disengaging the block 6 from the slot 14. By rotating the support column 11, the positioning block 13 can be rotated to the positioning groove 10, separating the support column 11 from the connecting column 3 and achieving quick disassembly.

[0027] Reference Figures 2-4 The outer shell has a protective groove 19 on the inside, the fixing pile 15 is set inside the protective groove 19, the soil breaking cone 16 is set inside the protective groove 19, and the outer shell 18 is fitted with a binding strap 20.

[0028] Specifically, a fixed pile 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support column 11, and a ground-breaking cone 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed pile 15. The fixed pile 15 is inserted into the soil through the ground-breaking cone 16, which ensures the stability of the entire device during use. The two sides of the support column 11 are rotatably connected to the outer shell 18 through the rotating shaft 17. The outer shell 18 is provided with protective grooves 19 corresponding to the shapes of the fixed pile 15 and the ground-breaking cone 16. During use, the protective shell 18 is flipped up to the side of the support column 11 and fixed with straps 20, so that the fixed pile 15 and the ground-breaking cone 16 can be inserted into the ground without obstruction. During transportation, the outer shell 18 is flipped down so that the protective grooves 19 inside the outer shell 18 wrap around the fixed pile 15 and the ground-breaking cone 16 and are fixed with straps 20, which improves the safety during transportation.

[0029] Working principle: When using this device, pulling the lever 8 drives the lever 7 and the locking block 6, causing the locking block 6 to move upward, aligning the rotating block 12 and the positioning block 13 and inserting them into the positioning groove 10, thereby allowing the positioning block 13 to enter the rotating groove 9. By rotating, the positioning block 13 rotates to the corresponding position in the rotating groove 9. Lowering the lever 8 allows the locking block 6 to enter the locking groove 14 on the positioning block 13, thus fixing the positioning block 13 and achieving a quick connection between the support column 11 and the connecting column 3. Untie the straps 20 on the lower outer shell 18 of the support column 11, flip the outer shell 18 up to both sides of the support column 11 and fix it with the straps 20, exposing the fixing pile 15 and the ground-breaking cone 16. Insert the fixing pile 15 into the soil through the ground-breaking cone 16, thus fixing the entire device in the tropical rainforest. Correspondingly, after collecting a certain amount of debris, the fixed stake 15 and the ground-breaking cone 16 can be pulled out of the soil. The binding strap 20 can be untied so that the protective groove 19 can cover the fixed stake 15 and the ground-breaking cone 16. The outer shell 18 can be fixed by the binding strap 20 so that the outer shell 18 will not be easily opened to expose the internal ground-breaking cone 16, thus protecting the safety of the transport personnel. By pulling up the lever 8, the locking block 6 can be disengaged from the locking groove 14. The support column 11 can be rotated to drive the positioning block 13 to rotate along the rotating groove 9 to the corresponding position of the positioning groove 10. Pulling down the support column 11 can realize the quick separation between the connecting column 3 and the support column 11, thus achieving convenience in the use of the device and portability in the transportation process.

[0030] 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.
