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.
[0027] Please see Figures 1-5 Seed germination dishes can be laid out in greenhouses for cultivation or on stacked shelves. Existing crop seed germination rate detection image acquisition equipment is of a single form, which is inconvenient to change the form of the acquisition equipment according to the seed cultivation location, and is inconvenient to disassemble and assemble the acquisition equipment as needed. In order to solve this technical problem, this embodiment discloses the following technical content.
[0028] A crop seed germination rate detection image acquisition device includes a support column 1, a mounting plate 2, rollers 3, a connecting shell 4, a reinforcing block 5, a crossbar 6, a horizontal position adjustment component, a vertical position adjustment component, a mounting block 13, an arc rod 14, a camera 15, and a threaded rod 16.
[0029] A mounting plate 2 is installed below the support column 1, and a roller 3 is installed at the bottom of the mounting plate 2. When it is necessary to photograph seedlings planted in the field, the device is first assembled. The bottom end of the support column 1 is inserted into the interior of the connecting shell 4, and the connecting shell 4 and the support column 1 are fixed with screws. Then, the cross frame 6 is fixed to the top of the support column 1 with screws. A reinforcing block 5 is fixed to the top of the support column 1. At this time, the upper surface of the reinforcing block 5 is in contact with the lower surface of the cross frame 6. A sliding groove is opened inside the cross frame 6. A mounting block 13 is fixed to the outer side of the camera 15. The mounting block 13 is inserted into the sliding groove of the cross frame 6. The structure composed of the support column 1, the reinforcing block 5 and the cross frame 6 is assembled into two sets. Then, the cross frames 6 on the two sets of structures are aligned with each other and fixed with screws to form a structure as shown in the figure. Figure 1 The U-shaped structure shown;
[0030] A lateral position adjustment assembly for camera 15 is installed on the side of support column 1. The lateral position adjustment assembly includes a side plate 7, a wire roller 8, and a traction line 9. The side plate 7 is fixed to the outer side of support column 1, and the front end of the wire roller 8 passes through the interior of the side plate 7. One end of the traction line 9 is fixed to the outer side of the wire roller 8. The end of the traction line 9 away from the wire roller 8 is connected to the arc-shaped rod 14. The end of the traction line 9 away from the wire roller 8 is tied to the arc-shaped rod 14. Two workers hold the support columns 1 on the left and right sides respectively and push the device to move on the field to remove the wire roller. The screw connecting the front end of the 8 to the side plate 7 is then rotated. The handle integrated with the front end of the left roller 8 is rotated to wind up the traction line 9. At this time, the right roller 8 rotates to release the traction line 9, causing the mounting block 13 to move to the left in the groove of the cross frame 6. Conversely, the right traction line 9 is wound up and the left traction line 9 is released. The mounting block 13 moves to the right in the groove of the cross frame 6, causing the camera 15 to move left and right. The camera 15 is used to take pictures of the seedlings in the field below to collect images of crop seed germination rate.
[0031] When seeds are planted on stacked seedling racks, such as Figure 2 As shown, a structure consisting of a set of support columns 1, reinforcing blocks 5 and crossbars 6 is used. The vertical position adjustment assembly of the camera 15 is installed inside the support column 1. The vertical position adjustment assembly includes a lead screw 10, an operating panel 11 and a lifting rod 12. The lead screw 10 is rotatably installed inside the support column 1. The operating panel 11 is fixed to the bottom end of the lead screw 10. The lifting rod 12 is threadedly connected to the outer end of the lead screw 10. The outer end of the operating panel 11 protrudes from the support column 1. The lifting rod 12 forms a lifting structure with the support column 1 through the lead screw 10. The threaded rod 16 is connected to the lifting rod 12 by a threaded connection.
[0032] The threaded rod 16, which is fixed to the outer side of the mounting block 13, is threaded onto the lifting rod 12. At this time, the camera 15 is installed on the lifting rod 12. The operator manually rotates the operating plate 11 and the lead screw 10, and the lifting rod 12, which is threaded onto the lead screw 10, rises and falls, thereby raising and lowering the camera 15. The camera 15 is used to photograph seedlings at different heights. The camera 15 has a built-in battery and is easy to carry.
[0033] Staff can also use a structure consisting of a set of support columns 1, reinforcing blocks 5 and crossbeams 6 to photograph seedlings in farmland, making the image acquisition method more flexible;
