[0002] Lychee is the fruit of the litchi tree, a plant in the Sapindaceae family. As an important economic fruit in southern my country, the growth and development of litchi are closely related to the soil environment. Parameters such as soil pH, water content, nutrient content, and electrical conductivity directly affect the growth of litchi tree roots, nutrient absorption, and fruit quality. Before obtaining soil information, it is necessary to sample the soil in the orchard. With the continuous development of technology, robots are now gradually being used for soil collection. However, the existing technology has the following shortcomings:

[0026] Example:
[0027] like Figure 1-4As shown in this embodiment, a multifunctional soil parameter acquisition robot for lychee orchards includes a tracked chassis 1. A U-shaped frame 2 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the tracked chassis 1. The tracked chassis 1 is moved to a designated position in the orchard and then stopped. A servo motor 3 is fixedly installed on the inner upper surface of the U-shaped frame 2. A connecting column 4 is rotatably connected to the top of the U-shaped frame 2. The output shaft end of the servo motor 3 is fixedly connected to the center of the bottom of the connecting column 4. A connecting frame 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting column 4. A connecting rod 6 and a multi-stage electric telescopic rod 7 are fixedly installed on the lower surface of the connecting frame 5. A sleeve plate 8 is fixedly connected to the push rod end of the multi-stage electric telescopic rod 7. The sleeve plate 8 is parallel to the U-shaped frame 2. A sampling tube 9 is fixedly installed on the inner surface of the sleeve plate 8. The multi-stage electric telescopic rod 7 drives the sleeve plate 8 and the sampling tube 9 to move downwards, so that the sampling tube 9 is inserted into the soil. A push plate 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting rod 6. Then, through the multi-stage electric telescopic rod 7, the push plate 6 and the sampling tube 9 are moved downwards. The rod 7 drives the sleeve plate 8 and sampling tube 9 to move upward, so that the sampling tube 9 is separated from the soil. The sampling tube 9 can collect a portion of the soil. The upper surface of the tracked chassis 1 is provided with an arc-shaped groove 11, and an arc-shaped collection box 12 is placed in the arc-shaped groove 11. When the height of the lower end face of the sampling tube 9 is higher than the height of the upper end face of the arc-shaped collection box 12, the multi-stage electric telescopic rod 7 stops working. Several partition plates 13 arranged in an arc shape at equal angles are fixedly installed inside the arc-shaped collection box 12. The arc-shaped collection box 12 is divided into multiple placement cavities 14 by several partition plates 13. The servo motor 3 drives the connecting column 4 and the connecting frame 5 to rotate through the output shaft. The multi-stage electric telescopic rod 7, connecting rod 6, push plate 10, sleeve plate 8 and sampling tube 9 all rotate synchronously with the connecting frame 5, rotating the connecting frame 5 to a suitable angle position so that the sampling tube 9 is directly above one of the placement cavities 14.
[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a battery 15 and a control switch 16 are installed on the upper surface of the connecting frame 5. The power input terminal of the control switch 16 is electrically connected to the power output terminal of the battery 15, and the power output terminal of the control switch 16 is electrically connected to the power input terminal of the servo motor 3 and the multi-stage electric telescopic rod 7. The control switch 16 can be used to control the start of the servo motor 3 and the multi-stage electric telescopic rod 7.
[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, the pusher plate 10 is located directly above the sampling tube 9. The pusher plate 10 is adapted to the sampling tube 9. After the sampling tube 9 completes sampling, the sleeve plate 8 and the sampling tube 9 are moved upward by the multi-stage electric telescopic rod 7. During the upward movement of the sampling tube 9, since the position of the pusher plate 10 is fixed, the soil collected in the sampling tube 9 can be pushed out by the pusher plate 10, so that the soil is located inside one of the placement troughs 14.
[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the arc-shaped groove 11 is adapted to the arc-shaped collection box 12. The depth of the arc-shaped groove 11 is less than the height of the arc-shaped collection box 12. After the soil sampling is completed, the arc-shaped collection box 12 is taken out from the arc-shaped groove 11 to facilitate subsequent analysis of soil parameters.
[0031] like Figure 4 As shown, the several placement troughs 14 are of the same size, so that the amount of soil that can be placed in each placement trough 14 is roughly the same.
[0032] Specifically, when using the multi-functional soil parameter collection robot in this lychee orchard: after moving the tracked chassis 1 to the designated location in the orchard and stopping, the multi-stage electric telescopic rod 7 is first activated by the control switch 16. The multi-stage electric telescopic rod 7 drives the sleeve plate 8 and the sampling tube 9 to move downwards, so that the sampling tube 9 is inserted into the soil. Then, the multi-stage electric telescopic rod 7 drives the sleeve plate 8 and the sampling tube 9 to move upwards, so that the sampling tube 9 is detached from the soil. The sampling tube 9 can collect samples from a portion of the soil. When the height of the lower end of the sampling tube 9 is higher than the upper end of the arc-shaped collection box 12... When the end face height is reached, the multi-stage electric telescopic rod 7 is stopped by control switch 16, and the servo motor 3 is started by control switch 16. The servo motor 3 drives the connecting column 4 and the connecting frame 5 to rotate through the output shaft. The multi-stage electric telescopic rod 7, the connecting rod 6, the push plate 10, the sleeve plate 8, and the sampling tube 9 all rotate synchronously with the connecting frame 5. The connecting frame 5 is rotated to a suitable angle position so that the sampling tube 9 is directly above one of the placement slots 14. Then, the multi-stage electric telescopic rod 7 is started again by control switch 16, and the multi-stage electric telescopic rod 7 drives the sleeve plate 8 to rotate. As the sampling tube 9 moves upward, the pusher plate 10, with its fixed position, pushes out the soil collected in the sampling tube 9, placing the soil inside one of the placement troughs 14. When soil sampling is required at different locations within the orchard, the tracked chassis 1 is moved to the remaining sampling locations, and the above steps are repeated. This can be achieved by changing the rotation angle of the connecting column 4 via the output shaft of the control servo motor 3 using the control switch 16, ensuring the sampling tube 9 is positioned directly above the remaining placement troughs 14. The multi-stage electric telescopic rod 7 is activated by the control switch 16. The multi-stage electric telescopic rod 7 drives the sleeve plate 8 and the sampling tube 9 to move upward. The soil collected in the sampling tube 9 is pushed out by the pusher plate 10, so that the soil is placed in the empty single placement trough 14. Thus, after sampling soil from different locations in the orchard, the soil collected multiple times can be placed separately in the arc-shaped collection box 12, and the soil will not be mixed. After the soil sampling is completed, the arc-shaped collection box 12 is removed from the arc-shaped trough 11 for subsequent analysis of soil parameters.
[0033] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present utility model and are not intended to limit the technical solutions described in the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, the present utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. Therefore, any modifications or equivalent substitutions to the present utility model, and all technical solutions and improvements that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the utility model, are covered within the scope of the claims of the present utility model.
