Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bird ecological research technology, specifically a monitor for bird diversity observation. Background Technology
[0002] Birds, as indicator species in ecosystems, directly reflect the health of the ecological environment through their population size, distribution range, and behavioral changes. Bird diversity observation can help identify potential problems in the ecosystem in a timely manner, provide early warning for ecological protection, and help understand the structure and function of the food chain, as well as assess the stability and resilience of the ecosystem. Therefore, it is necessary to use monitoring devices to observe bird diversity in a timely manner. However, when using traditional monitoring devices, since they are installed in the field, they may shake due to insufficient contact area with the ground, affecting the stability of the monitoring devices during use.
[0003] To overcome the aforementioned shortcomings, the existing technology (Chinese patent publication number CN219841330U, publication date 2023-10-17) for bird observation in the wild includes: a fixed base, a fixed frame fixedly connected above the fixed base, a connecting frame above the fixed frame, and a motor installed inside the connecting frame. This bird observation device forms an observation structure by incorporating a motor, a first transmission gear, a second transmission gear, a hollow bearing, a protective frame, a solar cell, a solar controller, a battery, and a camera. The motor drives the camera to move, allowing for observation of a wide range of birds. The protective frame protects the internal electrical components from damage by external impacts, and the solar cell charges the battery, ensuring long-term observation capability. An adjustment structure is formed by a sliding rod, a threaded rod, a first bevel gear, a second bevel gear, a turntable, and fixing bolts. Rotating the turntable allows for adjustment of the camera's height, facilitating quick adjustments by staff based on site conditions.
[0004] The aforementioned institutions use a turntable to adjust the height of the camera, thereby enabling the observation of a wide range of birds. However, in actual use, the continuous height adjustment causes the unstable bottom contact surface to wobble, which in turn causes the entire monitor to tip over, affecting the overall stability during use. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a monitor for bird diversity observation, in order to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that traditional monitors, when installed in the field, may shake due to insufficient contact area with the ground, thus affecting the stability of the monitor during use.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a monitor for bird diversity observation, comprising a monitor body, a sliding plate installed at the bottom of the monitor body, and a protective box sleeved on the outer side of the sliding plate, with a lifting rod installed at the bottom of the protective box; support frames are evenly distributed at the lower outer side of the lifting rod, and a mounting mechanism for fixing the position is installed at the bottom of the support frames, the mounting mechanism including a limiting rod, and the limiting rod being fixedly connected to the side of the bottom of the support frame away from the lifting rod; the protective box and the sliding plate are slidably connected, and a lifting and storage mechanism for adjusting the height of the sliding plate is provided inside the protective box.
[0007] Furthermore, the limiting rod is internally provided with a limiting mechanism for increasing friction. The limiting mechanism includes a fixed plate, and a positioning rod is hinged to the top of the fixed plate. A push rod is hinged to the middle position of the positioning rod, and a push plate is hinged to the top of the push rod. A sleeve rod is fixedly connected to the top of the push plate, and a lead screw is threaded inside the sleeve rod. A drive gear is installed at the top of the lead screw, and a second drive motor is provided at the top of the drive gear. A gear ring meshes with the outer side of the drive gear.
[0008] Furthermore, the gear ring and the support frame are slidably connected, and the gear ring is located at the upper end of the support frame.
[0009] Furthermore, the push plate and the limiting rod are slidably connected, and the push plate is positioned above the positioning rod.
[0010] Furthermore, the limiting rod has fixing grooves on both sides, and the side of the positioning rod passes through and extends to the outside of the fixing groove.
[0011] Furthermore, the lifting and storage mechanism includes a first drive motor, which is located on the outside of the protective box. The output end of the first drive motor extends into the interior of the protective box and is fitted with a threaded rod. A movable block is threadedly connected to the outside of the threaded rod. A hinge rod is hinged to the top of the movable block, and the top of the hinge rod is hinged to the sliding plate.
[0012] Furthermore, a limiting plate is provided at the lower end of the interior of the protective box, and a sliding block is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the movable block. A sliding groove matching the sliding block is provided at the top end of the limiting plate.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0014] 1. By applying pressure to the support frame, the limiting rod can be inserted into the ground. The cooperation between the limiting rod and the support frame can fix the position of the device itself. By moving the output end of the lifting rod up and down, the height of the monitor body can be changed, which facilitates better observation of birds.
[0015] Furthermore, since the support frame and limit rod are angularly distributed on the outside of the lifting rod, and the length of the support frame is greater than the length of the protective box, the support frame can increase the stability of the lifting rod and the monitoring device itself, effectively preventing the device from shaking or tipping over during use, and increasing its applicability.
[0016] Furthermore, when the sleeve moves downward, it pushes the push plate downward. The bottom end of the push plate is hinged to a push rod, which pushes the positioning rod outward when it rotates. The positioning rod and the fixed plate are hinged, increasing the distance between the upper ends of the positioning rods. At the same time, the upper end of the positioning rod extends to the outside of the fixed groove. The positioning rod increases the friction when the limit rod is pulled upward, thus making the device more stable and effectively reducing the problem of device shaking.
[0017] 2. The output end of the first drive motor rotates and drives the threaded rod to rotate. The threaded rod and the movable block are connected by a thread, so that the threaded rod can drive the movable block to move left and right. When the movable block moves, the angle between the hinge rod and the sliding plate changes, thereby changing the height of the sliding plate. The sliding plate can be used to move and store the monitor body inside the protective box, effectively preventing damage to the monitor body when it is not in use.
[0018] Furthermore, when the movable block moves, it will cause the sliding block to slide at the top of the limiting plate. The sliding block and the slide groove are slidably connected, so that when the movable block is moved by the threaded rod, the angle of the movable block will not deviate, thus increasing the stability of the movable block when it moves.

[0026] 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.
[0027] Example 1: As Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 The technical solution shown addresses the issue that traditional monitors, when installed in the field, may wobble due to insufficient contact area with the ground, affecting their stability during use. This monitor for bird diversity observation discloses an installation mechanism, including a monitor body 3. A sliding plate 4 is installed at the bottom of the monitor body 3, and a protective box 2 is fitted over the outer side of the sliding plate 4. A lifting rod 1 is installed at the bottom of the protective box 2. Support frames 12 are evenly spaced at the lower outer side of the lifting rod 1, and a mounting mechanism for fixing the position is installed at the bottom of the support frames 12. The mounting mechanism includes a limiting rod 13, which is fixedly connected to the side of the bottom of the support frame 12 away from the lifting rod 1.
[0028] In this example, the support frame 12 is placed on the ground at the installation location. By applying pressure to the support frame 12, the limiting rod 13 can be inserted into the ground. The cooperation between the limiting rod 13 and the support frame 12 can fix the position of the device itself. By moving the output end of the lifting rod 1 up and down, the height of the monitor body 3 can be changed, which is convenient for better observation of birds. Since the support frame 12 and the limiting rod 13 are distributed at equal angles on the outside of the lifting rod 1, and the length of the support frame 12 is greater than the length of the protective box 2, the support frame 12 can increase the stability of the lifting rod 1 and the monitor body 3, effectively preventing the device from shaking and tipping over during use, and increasing its applicability.
[0029] Example 2: Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The technical solution shown addresses the issue of low friction between the limiting rod 13 and the ground when the device is inserted into the ground for position restriction. The monitor for bird diversity observation discloses a limiting mechanism. The limiting rod 13 has an internal mechanism to increase friction. This limiting mechanism includes a fixed plate 21, with a positioning rod 19 hinged to its top. A push rod 18 is hinged to the middle of the positioning rod 19, and a push plate 20 is hinged to the top of the push rod 18. A sleeve rod 17 is fixedly connected to the top of the push plate 20. The internal threaded connection is a lead screw 16, the top of the lead screw 16 is equipped with a drive gear 15, and the top of the drive gear 15 is equipped with a second drive motor 14. The outer side of the drive gear 15 is meshed with a gear ring 22. The gear ring 22 is slidably connected to the support frame 12, and the gear ring 22 is located at the upper end of the support frame 12. The push plate 20 is slidably connected to the limiting rod 13, and the push plate 20 is located above the positioning rod 19. The limiting rod 13 has fixing grooves 23 on both sides, and the side of the positioning rod 19 passes through and extends to the outside of the fixing grooves 23.
[0030] In this example, the output of the second drive motor 14 rotates, driving the drive gear 15 to rotate. The drive gear 15 meshes with the gear ring 22, causing the gear ring 22 to synchronously drive the other drive gears 15 to rotate. When the drive gear 15 rotates, it drives the lead screw 16. The lead screw 16 is threadedly connected to the sleeve rod 17. Therefore, when the lead screw 16 rotates, it causes the sleeve rod 17 to move downward. When the sleeve rod 17 moves downward, it pushes the push plate 20 downward. The bottom end of the push plate 20 is hinged with a push rod 18. When the push rod 18 rotates, it pushes the positioning rod 19 outward. The positioning rod 19 and the fixed plate 21 are hinged, increasing the distance between the upper ends of the positioning rods 19. At the same time, the upper end of the positioning rod 19 extends to the outside of the fixed groove 23. The positioning rod 19 can increase the friction when the limiting rod 13 is pulled upward, thereby making the device itself more stable and effectively reducing the problem of device shaking. The push plate 20 and the limiting rod 13 are slidably connected, so that the push plate 20 can move downward stably when the sleeve rod 17 is pushed downward.
[0031] Example 3: Figure 2 and Figure 4 The technical solution shown addresses the problem that the monitor body 3 is easily damaged when the device is not in use: The monitor for bird diversity observation discloses a lifting and storage mechanism. The protective box 2 and the sliding plate 4 are slidably connected. The protective box 2 has a lifting and storage mechanism inside for adjusting the height of the sliding plate 4. The lifting and storage mechanism includes a first drive motor 5, which is located on the outside of the protective box 2. The output end of the first drive motor 5 extends into the interior of the protective box 2 and is fitted with a threaded rod 6. A movable block 7 is threadedly connected to the outside of the threaded rod 6. A hinge rod 8 is hinged to the top of the movable block 7, and the top of the hinge rod 8 is hinged to the sliding plate 4. A limit plate 10 is provided at the lower end inside the protective box 2, and a sliding block 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the movable block 7. A groove 11 matching the sliding block 9 is provided at the top of the limit plate 10.
[0032] In this example, the output end of the first drive motor 5 rotates, driving the threaded rod 6 to rotate. The threaded rod 6 is threadedly connected to the movable block 7, allowing the threaded rod 6 to drive the movable block 7 to move left and right. When the movable block 7 moves, the angle between the hinge rod 8 and the sliding plate 4 changes, thereby changing the height of the sliding plate 4. The sliding plate 4 can be used to move and store the monitor body 3 inside the protective box 2, effectively preventing damage to the monitor body 3 when not in use. When the movable block 7 moves, it will drive the sliding block 9 to slide at the top of the limiting plate 10. The sliding block 9 is slidably connected to the slide groove 11, ensuring that the angle of the movable block 7 will not deviate when it is driven by the threaded rod 6, increasing the stability of the movable block 7 during movement.
[0033] 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.
