Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of binocular monitoring technology for aquaculture, and in particular to a binocular monitoring device for aquaculture with temperature warning. Background Technology
[0002] In modern livestock and poultry farming, environmental monitoring is of great significance for ensuring animal health and improving farming efficiency. Because farm sheds often suffer from high temperatures, high humidity, dust, and poor ventilation, these conditions can easily trigger stress responses in animals or lead to disease transmission. Therefore, real-time monitoring of environmental temperature and humidity, harmful gas concentrations, and biological activity is necessary. Binocular monitoring devices, which can simulate human stereoscopic vision, possess depth perception and image recognition capabilities and are widely used in intelligent inspections, behavior analysis, and anomaly warnings in farming areas. Binocular monitoring devices with temperature warning functions integrate video monitoring, environmental temperature sensing, and automatic alarm functions, enabling 24 / 7 automated and intelligent monitoring of the farming environment, thereby improving management efficiency and biosafety levels.
[0003] However, most existing aquaculture monitoring equipment is fixedly installed, with a single monitoring perspective and limited coverage, making it difficult to meet the dynamic inspection needs of large-scale aquaculture areas. It often requires frequent manual adjustments or the addition of multiple monitoring points, increasing operation and maintenance costs. Although some equipment has pan-tilt adjustment function, it only supports rotation at a limited angle and lacks linear movement capability, making it impossible to achieve long-distance inspection.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to design a binocular monitoring device for aquaculture with temperature early warning to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] To overcome the shortcomings of existing aquaculture monitoring equipment, which is mostly fixed, has a single viewing angle and limited coverage, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale inspections, requiring manual adjustment or additional points, resulting in high costs; and although some have pan-tilt units, they can only rotate to a limited extent and lack mobility, making long-distance inspection impossible, this utility model provides an aquaculture binocular monitoring device with temperature warning.
[0006] The technical solution is as follows: A dual-lens monitoring device for aquaculture with temperature early warning, comprising a slide rail, a controller, a rack, a sliding frame, a first motor, a gear, a movable frame, and a monitoring head.

The upper part of the connecting frame slides in the long slot. The controller is electrically connected to the second motor.
[0009] Furthermore, it also includes a third motor, a rotating frame, and a fourth motor. The third motor is fixedly connected to the front of the movable frame, the output shaft of the third motor is connected to the rotating frame, the fourth motor is fixedly connected to the upper right side of the rotating frame, the output shaft of the fourth motor is connected to the monitoring head, and the controller is electrically connected to the third motor and the fourth motor respectively.
[0010] Furthermore, it also includes an electric push rod, a cleaning block, a frame, a housing, a push frame, a spring, and a top cover. The frame is located on the front top of the monitoring head, and the electric push rod is fixedly connected to the front bottom of the monitoring head.

Detailed Implementation
[0021] Example: A binocular monitoring device for aquaculture with temperature early warning, such as... Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the system includes a slide rail 1, a controller 2, a buzzer 3, a rack 4, a sliding frame 5, a first motor 6, a gear 7, a movable frame 8, and a monitoring head 14. The controller 2 is bolted to the top center of the slide rail 1. The buzzer 3 is mounted on the top right side of the slide rail 1. The rack 4 is mounted on the rear side wall inside the slide rail 1. The sliding frame 5 is slidably connected to the front of the slide rail 1. The first motor 6 is bolted to the rear of the sliding frame 5. The output shaft of the first motor 6 is connected to the gear 7, which meshes with the rack 4. The movable frame 8 is mounted to the front of the sliding frame 5. The monitoring head 14 is located on the top front side of the movable frame 8. Monitoring eyes are mounted on the left and right sides of the front of the monitoring head 14. The monitoring head 14 integrates a temperature sensor. The outer shell of the monitoring head 14 is made of engineering plastic, and the lens is made of optical glass. The controller 2 is electrically connected to the first motor 6, the monitoring head 14, and the buzzer 3.
[0022] like Figure 2As shown, it also includes a second motor 9 and a connecting frame 10. The second motor 9 is bolted to the bottom of the movable frame 8. The output shaft of the second motor 9 passes through the movable frame 8 and is connected to the connecting frame 10. A long groove is opened on the rear side of the top of the movable frame 8. The upper part of the connecting frame 10 slides in the long groove. The controller 2 is electrically connected to the second motor 9.
[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it also includes a third motor 11, a rotating frame 12 and a fourth motor 13. The third motor 11 is bolted to the front of the movable frame 8. The output shaft of the third motor 11 is connected to the rotating frame 12. The fourth motor 13 is bolted to the upper right side of the rotating frame 12. The output shaft of the fourth motor 13 is connected to the monitoring head 14. The controller 2 is electrically connected to the third motor 11 and the fourth motor 13 respectively.
[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, it also includes an electric push rod 15, a cleaning block 16, a frame 17, a housing 18, a push frame 19, a spring 20, and a top cover 21. The top front of the monitoring head 14 is provided with a frame 17, and the bottom front of the monitoring head 14 is bolted to an electric push rod 15. The telescopic rod of the electric push rod 15 extends upward and is connected to the cleaning block 16. The cleaning block 16 slides inside the frame 17 and slides in contact with the lens surface of the monitoring head 14. The top of the monitoring head 14 is provided with a housing 18. Multiple through holes are evenly opened on the rear side wall of the frame 17 and are connected to the housing 18. The push frame 19 is slidably connected inside the frame 17. A spring 20 is sleeved between the push frame 19 and the frame 17. The top of the housing 18 is rotatably connected to the top cover 21. The controller 2 is electrically connected to the electric push rod 15.
[0025] When this device is needed, first, fix the device in the preset installation position in the breeding shed, connect the power supply, and the controller 2 will start to operate. The controller 2 receives and processes the environmental data collected by the temperature sensor in the monitoring head 14 in real time, and performs analysis and judgment. When the controller 2 has a preset temperature alarm threshold, when the monitored ambient temperature exceeds the threshold for a continuous period of time (e.g., 3 seconds), the controller 2 will trigger the buzzer 3 to sound until the temperature returns to normal or the manager manually turns it off, realizing the high temperature warning function and reminding the manager to take timely control measures such as ventilation and cooling to avoid the impact of abnormal ambient temperature on the health of livestock and poultry.
[0026] Subsequently, the controller 2 starts the first motor 6 according to the preset inspection program. Its output shaft drives the gear 7 to rotate. The gear 7 meshes with the rack 4 to form a stable transmission relationship. Under the synergistic action of the gear 7 and the rack 4, the sliding frame 5 slides smoothly along the slide rail 1 in the left and right directions, driving its movable frame 8 and monitoring head 14 to move as a whole, realizing linear automatic inspection of the breeding area, significantly expanding the monitoring coverage and reducing the frequency of manual inspection.
[0027] After the sliding frame 5 moves to the target area, if the monitoring angle needs to be adjusted, the controller 2 can start the second motor 9. The output shaft of the second motor 9 drives the connecting frame 10 to move. Since the top rear side of the movable frame 8 has a long groove, the upper part of the connecting frame 10 can slide in the groove, thereby pushing the front end of the movable frame 8 to move back and forth around the fulcrum, realizing the adjustment of the monitoring head 14 to adapt to the observation needs, such as focused monitoring of ground livestock and poultry activities or top ventilation facilities.
[0028] To further optimize the field of view, the controller 2 can simultaneously start the third motor 11, whose output shaft is connected to the rotating frame 12, driving the rotating frame 12 to rotate 360 degrees in the horizontal plane, so that the monitoring head 14 can rotate horizontally. At the same time, the fourth motor 13 starts, whose output shaft is directly connected to the monitoring head 14, and can drive the monitoring head 14 to rotate around its own axis, so as to achieve precise adjustment of the pitch angle and ensure all-round, blind-spot-free coverage of complex breeding environments.
[0029] During long-term operation, the lens at the front of the monitoring head 14 is easily contaminated by dust, moisture or dirt, which affects the image quality. When the controller 2 determines that the lens is blurry according to the set period or image recognition algorithm, it activates the electric push rod 15. Its telescopic rod pushes the cleaning block 16 to move up and down in the frame 17. The cleaning block 16 slides in close contact with the surface of the optical glass lens at the front of the monitoring head 14, effectively removing the attached dust and water film and keeping the lens clean and transparent.
[0030] During the cleaning process, multiple through holes evenly distributed on the rear side wall of the frame 17 are connected to the interior of the rear box 18. The box 18 can store cleaning liquid. When the cleaning block 16 moves upward, the through holes open, and the liquid flows out under the action of gravity to rinse the lens surface, realizing a "water washing + wiping" composite cleaning mode. The push frame 19 inside the frame 17 is connected to the cleaning block 16. A spring 20 is sleeved between the push frame 19 and the frame 17. The spring 20 provides a reset force to ensure that the cleaning block 16 returns stably to its original position when the electric push rod 15 retracts, and the action is reliable.
[0031] When not in operation or after cleaning, the top cover 21 of the box 18 can be closed around the rotating shaft, covering the top of the box 18 to form a physical barrier to prevent dust, flying insects or water droplets from entering the box 18, thus playing a dustproof role. The monitoring eyes on the left and right sides of the front of the monitoring head 14 continuously collect high-definition video signals and transmit them to the central control system through wired or wireless means to realize real-time visual monitoring and remote management of the breeding environment.
