Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of moss variety screening technology, specifically to an intelligent moss variety screening device based on machine vision. Background Technology

[0002] As is well known, traditional methods for identifying and screening moss species rely heavily on the knowledge and experience of experts. Manual identification of moss species is a time-consuming task. Due to the large number of moss species and their similar appearances, meticulous observation and analysis are required, significantly limiting the speed of identification. Different people may have different judgments about the same moss sample, especially when detailed features are not obvious. This subjectivity can lead to biased identification results. Even experienced experts may experience fatigue and misjudgment after long periods of work. Furthermore, subtle differences between some moss species are difficult to distinguish accurately with the naked eye, further affecting the accuracy of identification. With the advancement of technology… With the development of technology, machine vision has begun to be introduced into plant taxonomy, especially for small plants such as mosses. It provides a non-invasive, high-throughput method for collecting and analyzing image data. In order to obtain high-quality image data, the device needs to be stably installed in a suitable position. However, traditional installation methods, such as using screws and brackets, are not only complicated to operate, but also difficult to adjust the angle, which is not conducive to rapid deployment and adjustment. In practical applications, mosses may be distributed at different angles and positions. Single-view camera devices cannot meet the need for full coverage, and some existing devices have failed to effectively solve this problem, resulting in limited recognition range. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a solution to this technical problem. Utility Model Content

[0014] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0015] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides an intelligent screening device for moss varieties based on machine vision, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] This machine vision-based intelligent moss variety screening device uses suction cups for fixation, utilizing air pressure difference to achieve a firm adhesion between the device and the placement surface.

[0023] 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.

[0024] Please see Figures 1-4This utility model is an intelligent moss variety screening device based on machine vision, including a sealed box 1 and a monitoring box 2. The bottom of the sealed box 1 is provided with a sealing cylinder 3, and the bottom of the sealing cylinder 3 is provided with a suction cup 4. The interior of the sealed box 1 is provided with a lifting mechanism 5, and a sealing plug 6 is provided between the output end of the lifting mechanism 5 and the sealing cylinder 3. The top of the sealed box 1 is provided with an adjusting box 7, which is equipped with a heat dissipation mechanism and has a slot. The top of the adjusting box 7 is also provided with a bearing seat 8. An adjusting column 9 is provided between the monitoring box 2 and the bearing seat 8. The monitoring box 2 is equipped with a camera mechanism. A rotating mechanism is provided between the interior of the adjusting box 7 and the adjusting column 9. In this embodiment, the suction cup 4 is placed on a designated surface, such as a storage platform. The device is then connected to a power source. The output end of the lifting mechanism 5 is controlled to move upwards, causing the sealing plug 6 to move upwards within the sealing cylinder 3, thus sealing the suction cup 4 against the surface and preventing it from being exposed to the outside world. The air generates an angular pressure difference, which allows the suction cup 4 to firmly adhere to the flat surface, thus enabling rapid assembly and fixation of the structure. Then, by using a rotating mechanism to rotate the adjusting column 9 on the bearing seat 8, the adjusting column 9 stably drives the monitoring box 2 to rotate. The camera mechanism on the monitoring box 2 can intelligently screen and identify moss species in the surrounding environment. By rotating the angle of the monitoring box 2, a wide range of intelligent moss species screening operations can be performed on the surrounding environment. By connecting to an existing machine vision recognition system, the system can compare and analyze with the database to achieve the screening and identification operation. The control methods of the lifting mechanism 5 and the rotating mechanism are both common in existing technologies, which are controlled by external controllers and will not be described in detail in this structure. When it is necessary to remove the structure, the output end of the lifting mechanism 5 is controlled to move the sealing plug 6 downward, so that the sealing plug 6 moves downward in the sealing cylinder 3 to the suction cup 4, thereby stopping the suction cup 4 from adhering to the flat surface, thus quickly removing the structure for handling, inspection and maintenance operations.

[0025] The above-mentioned method of rotating the adjustment column 9 can be any one. In order to facilitate high-precision adjustment of the angle of the adjustment column 9, in this solution, the rotation mechanism includes a drive motor 10. The drive motor 10 is installed inside the adjustment box 7. The output end of the drive motor 10 is connected to the center position of the bottom end of the adjustment column 9. By controlling the output end of the drive motor 10 to drive the adjustment column 9 to rotate, the adjustment column 9 stably follows the rotation angle of the output end of the drive motor 10 on the bearing seat 8, thereby enabling high-precision adjustment of the angle of the monitoring box 2, enabling efficient video recording of the surrounding environment and reducing blind spots.

[0026] To facilitate ventilation and heat dissipation of the drive motor 10, the heat dissipation mechanism in this design includes a heat dissipation port located on the outside of the regulating box 7. The heat dissipation port is equipped with a dustproof grille 11. The heat dissipation port facilitates ventilation and heat dissipation, while the dustproof grille 11 helps reduce dust entry into the interior. Multiple heat dissipation mechanisms arranged in a circular array further improve ventilation and heat dissipation efficiency, thereby enhancing the heat dissipation effect on the rotating motor.

[0027] To facilitate video surveillance and screening of the surrounding environment, this solution includes a camera 12 mounted on the outside of the monitoring box 2. Multiple cameras 12 are arranged in a circular array. The camera setup also includes a supplementary light 13 mounted on the outside of the monitoring box 2. The multiple cameras 12 arranged in a circular array facilitate video surveillance and screening of the surrounding environment, while the supplementary light 13 provides additional illumination, reducing the likelihood of failure to screen or identify objects due to poor lighting conditions.

[0028] To facilitate indication of the operating status of this structure, in this solution, a handle 14 is provided at the top of the monitoring box 2, and an indicator alarm light 15 is provided on the handle 14. By holding the handle 14, the structure can be easily moved, and the indicator alarm light 15 on the handle 14 can easily display the operating status of the structure through light.

[0029] To facilitate control and use of this structure, in this solution, the lifting mechanism 5 is an electric telescopic rod, and the drive motor 10 is a servo motor. The electric telescopic rod can move the sealing plug 6 with high precision, and the servo motor has the characteristic of high rotational precision, thereby enabling high-precision adjustment of the angle of the monitoring box 2.

[0030] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
