Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of planting pots, specifically to a planting pot base with data monitoring capabilities. Background Technology

[0002] There are many styles of planting pots available, mainly used in agricultural planting. Planting pots are needed in some hydroponics or greenhouse planting. Planting pots are usually equipped with a base. In some households, when there is a need to grow flowers, placing a base at the bottom of the planting pot allows the water in the planting pot to collect on the base, thus preventing waterlogging on the ground or reducing the risk of root rot in plants.

[0003] Existing planting pot bases have a very simple structure, generally a disc shape. While they can allow users to collect water from the planting pots, they don't provide intuitive control over plant cultivation for some growers. Sometimes they overwater, sometimes they underwater, and there are no warnings. As a result, many users experience water and fertilizer deficiencies in their plants, leading to wilting. Therefore, monitoring the environment at the bottom of the planting pot is essential. Consequently, this simple planting pot base with only water collection function can no longer meet the needs of the aforementioned users. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the technical problems and shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a planting pot base with data monitoring, which can overcome the monitoring of the environment at the bottom of the planting pot, thereby reducing the difficulty of planting and making it easier for users to plant.

[0005] To achieve the above and other related objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A planting pot base with data monitoring includes a base body, a soil probe, a temperature sensor, a humidity sensor, a power supply module, and a wireless communication module. The base body has a support platform and a limiting stop at the edge of the support platform. The inner edge of the support platform forms a sloping surface towards the center. A flow guide channel is provided in the diameter direction of the base body. Interfaces are respectively provided at both ends of the bottom of the flow guide channel. The soil probe is fixed in the middle of the base body. The temperature sensor and humidity sensor are respectively fixed at both ends of the top of the flow guide channel. The power supply module and the wireless communication module are installed at the bottom of the base body. The power supply module supplies power to the soil probe, temperature sensor, humidity sensor, and wireless communication module. The soil probe, temperature sensor, and humidity sensor transmit data through the wireless communication module.

[0007] Preferably, the soil probe includes a probe head, a first probe tube, and a second probe tube. The probe head, the first probe tube, and the second probe tube are isolated from each other by an insulating component. The end of the probe head is connected to a first wire, the second probe tube is connected to a second wire, and the third probe tube is connected to a third wire.

[0008] Preferably, the soil probe, temperature sensor, and humidity sensor are respectively connected to the microprocessor module, and the microprocessor module is then connected to the wireless communication module to wirelessly transmit the monitoring data.

[0009] Preferably, an energy-saving circuit is connected between the power supply module and the microprocessor module. The energy-saving circuit includes a timing module and a switching circuit. The timing module triggers a start signal at regular intervals, and the switching circuit is connected to the timing module and connects the power supply line of the microprocessor module after receiving the start signal.

[0010] Preferably, the switching circuit includes resistor R1, resistor R2, transistor Q1, diode D1, and relay. One end of resistor R1 is connected to the timing module to receive the start signal. The other end of resistor R1 is connected to one end of resistor R2 and the base of transistor Q1. The other end of resistor R2 and the emitter of transistor Q1 are grounded. The collector of transistor Q1 is connected to the anode of diode D1 and one end of the coil K1 of the relay. The other end of the coil K1 of the relay and the cathode of diode D1 are connected to a voltage source. The normally open switch K1-1 of the relay is connected to the power supply line between the power supply module and the microprocessor module.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0012] 1. This utility model supports the planting pot through the base body, while the soil probe can be inserted into the soil of the planting pot from the bottom to detect the soil pH value. The temperature sensor and humidity sensor can detect the ambient temperature and humidity, and then transmit these detection data through the wireless communication module. The upper limit stop of the base body can limit the position of the planting pot, the drainage channel can accumulate excess water, and it also has an interface for guidance, which makes it easy for users to understand the planting situation.

[0013] 2. In this utility model, the soil probe structure utilizes a layered insulation method, which facilitates wire connection and transmission of electrical signals. It is positioned in the middle and can be inserted into the soil of the planting pot from the bottom for testing. The wire part is well insulated, so water will not affect it.

[0014] 3. In this utility model, the switching circuit can work with the timing module to control the power supply, thereby effectively saving electricity. Since the potted plants do not need to be monitored in real time, but only periodically, the timing module can be used to supply power periodically, thereby extending the power supply time and significantly extending the reporting and monitoring time.

[0015] Other additional advantages and benefits of this application will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of this application. Attached Figure Description

[0027] This invention discloses a planting pot base with data monitoring capabilities, as described in the embodiments below. Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the system includes a base body 1, a soil probe 2, a temperature sensor 3, a humidity sensor 4, a power supply module 5, and a wireless communication module 6. The base body 1 has a support platform 11 and a limiting baffle 12 located at the edge of the support platform 11. The planting pot can be placed on the support platform 11 and is limited by the baffle, preventing water from overflowing during watering. The inner edge of the support platform 11 forms a slope 13 towards the center, and a guide channel 14 is provided along the diameter of the base body 1. The slope 13 allows water to flow more quickly into the guide channel 14. Interfaces 15 are provided at both ends of the bottom of the guide channel 14. These interfaces 15 can be connected to flexible hoses, or multiple planting pot base interfaces 15 can be connected via flexible hoses. This design effectively drains water, preventing water accumulation at the bottom and root rot, and also promotes aerobic respiration of the plant roots.

[0028] It should be noted that planting pots with multiple ventilation holes at the bottom or through holes in the middle can be selected. In conjunction with the scheme described in this application, a soil probe 2 is fixed in the middle of the base body 1. The soil probe 2 can be directly inserted into the soil of the planting pot for testing. Its main function is to detect the soil pH value and acidity / alkalinity.

[0029] exist Figure 1 As can be seen, a temperature sensor 3 and a humidity sensor 4 are fixed at the top two ends of the guide channel 14, respectively. Although Figure 1 The circuit section is not shown in the diagram, but it can be understood by combining... Figure 2 The base body 1 has a power supply module 5 and a wireless communication module 6 installed at its bottom. The power supply module 5 powers the soil probe 2, temperature sensor 3, humidity sensor 4, and wireless communication module 6. The soil probe 2, temperature sensor 3, and humidity sensor 4 transmit data through the wireless communication module 6. The base body 1 supports the planting pot. During use, the soil probe 2 can be inserted into the soil in the planting pot from the bottom to detect the soil pH value. The temperature sensor 3 and humidity sensor 4 can detect the ambient temperature and humidity, and then transmit this detection data through the wireless communication module 6. The upper limit guard 12 of the base body 1 can limit the position of the planting pot, the drainage channel 14 can collect excess water, and the interface 15 can guide the water, making it easy for the user to understand the planting situation.

[0030] For details, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4As can be seen, the soil probe 2 includes a probe head 21, a first probe tube 22, and a second probe tube 23. The probe head 21, the first probe tube 22, and the second probe tube 23 are isolated from each other by an insulating component 24. The end of the probe head 21 is connected to a first wire 25, the second probe tube 23 is connected to a second wire 26, and the third probe tube is connected to a third wire 27. The connection points of the first wire 25, the second wire 26, and the third wire 27 are all insulated and sealed with epoxy resin. The soil probe 2 structure utilizes a layered insulation method, facilitating wire connection and signal transmission. Being positioned in the middle, it can be inserted into the soil of the planting pot from below for detection. The wire portion is properly insulated, so water will not affect it. Example

[0031] Based on Example 1, further optimizations can be made to improve data processing efficiency by combining... Figure 5 As you understand, soil probe 2, temperature sensor 3, and humidity sensor 4 are connected to microprocessor module 7, which in turn is connected to wireless communication module 6 to wirelessly transmit the monitoring data. Microprocessor module 7 is a single-chip microcomputer circuit; a 51 microcontroller module can be used as the specific chip.

[0032] More specifically, an energy-saving circuit 8 is connected between the power supply module 5 and the microprocessor module 7. The energy-saving circuit 8 includes a timing module 81 and a switching circuit 82. The timing module 81 triggers a start signal at regular intervals. The switching circuit 82 is connected to the timing module 81 and connects the power supply line of the microprocessor module 7 after receiving the start signal. The switching circuit 82 includes resistors R1 and R2, transistor Q1, diode D1, and a relay. One end of resistor R1 is connected to the timing module 81 to receive the start signal. The other end of resistor R1 is connected to one end of resistor R2 and the base of transistor Q1. The other end of resistor R2 and the emitter of transistor Q1 are grounded. The collector of transistor Q1 is connected to the anode of diode D1 and one end of the coil K1 of the relay. The other end of the coil K1 of the relay and the cathode of diode D1 are connected to a voltage source. The normally open switch K1-1 of the relay is connected to the power supply line between the power supply module 5 and the microprocessor module 7. The switching circuit 82 can work with the timing module 81 to control the power supply, thereby effectively saving electricity. Since the potted plants do not need to be monitored in real time, but only periodically, the timing module 81 can be used to provide power periodically, thereby extending the power supply time and significantly extending the reporting and monitoring time.

[0033] It should be noted that in Figure 2 and Figure 5 The smart terminal in this application can be a mobile phone. The wireless communication module 6 can be a Bluetooth module. Wireless data transmission via Bluetooth is existing technology. This application does not protect the software communication method, but only the hardware structure.
