Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of underwater observation equipment technology, specifically a portable underwater observation mirror assembly for monitoring lotus root growth. Background Technology
[0002] As modern agriculture develops towards intelligence and precision, real-time monitoring of crop growth environment has become crucial for improving yield and quality. Lotus root, as an important aquatic economic crop, is sensitive to conditions such as water level, water temperature, light, and nutrients during its growth cycle (e.g., budding, leaf expansion, root swelling). Traditional manual inspection methods suffer from low efficiency, data lag, and potential damage to the growth environment, making automated monitoring technology urgently needed.
[0003] Current underwater observation mirror components for monitoring lotus root growth often utilize industrial underwater inspection equipment, such as pipeline inspection robots and underwater drones. However, these are unsuitable for large-scale deployment in agricultural settings due to their high cost, large size, and complex operation, and are also inconvenient to carry. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a portable underwater observation mirror component for monitoring lotus root growth to address the aforementioned problems of traditional equipment's large size, high cost, inconvenience, and difficulty in large-scale deployment in agricultural settings.

[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:
[0028] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a portable underwater observation mirror assembly for monitoring lotus root growth, including: a frame 1, an observation platform 2 mounted on the top of the frame 1, an extension column 6 disposed inside the frame 1, and an observation mirror 5 mounted on the bottom of the extension column 6; a handle 3 and an adjustment mechanism 8 disposed on one side of the frame 1, the adjustment mechanism 8 including a handwheel 7 and a gear 19, the gear 19 being rotatably connected to the inside of the adjustment mechanism 8, the handwheel 7 being disposed outside the adjustment mechanism 8 and connected to the gear 19; and a mounting frame 4 hinged to the side of the frame 1, the mounting frame 4 being provided with a buckle 9.
[0029] In this embodiment, the main and secondary components of the frame 1, the observation mirror 5, the extension column 6, and the adjustment mechanism 8 constitute a portable underwater observation mirror assembly for monitoring lotus root growth according to this application, thus realizing a portable underwater observation mirror assembly for monitoring lotus root growth.
[0030] In this embodiment, the observation mirror 5 is common knowledge in the field. It is used without modification, so the control method and circuit connection will not be described in detail.
[0031] In this embodiment, when the mounting bracket 4 is retracted, the buckle 9 engages with the slot provided on the side of the frame 1, reducing the overall size of the underwater observation mirror assembly and making it easier to carry.
[0032] Specifically, the observation platform 2 is equipped with a display screen 11.
[0033] In this embodiment, the display screen 11 is used to receive and display the image information transmitted by the observation mirror 5. Effect: Allows users to directly observe the growth of the lotus root.
[0034] Specifically, the observation mirror 5 includes a lens 12 and a protective mirror 13. The lens 12 is located at the center of the observation mirror 5, and the protective mirror 13 is located around the lens 12.
[0035] As a preferred implementation, the lens 12 is used to capture underwater lotus root growth images, and the protective lens 13 is made of transparent composite material to protect the lens 12, achieving clear shooting and protecting the core shooting components.
[0036] Example 2:
[0037] Based on Example 1, a rack 18 is provided on the fixed block 10 to facilitate adjustment of the monitoring range;
[0038] Specifically, a fixing block 10 and a data cable 15 are provided at the end of the extension column 6 away from the observation mirror 5. A rack 18 is provided above the fixing block 10, and the rack 18 meshes with a gear 19. A slider 17 is provided on the side of the fixing block 10.
[0039] It should be noted that by meshing gear 19 with rack 18, turning handwheel 7 drives gear 19 to rotate, thereby moving extension column 6 up and down, which can adjust the height of observation mirror 5 and facilitate adjustment of monitoring range.
[0040] Specifically, a groove 20 is provided on the inner side of the frame 1, and the slider 17 slides in the groove 20.
[0041] In a preferred embodiment, the slider 17 slides within the groove 20, which guides and limits the movement of the extension column 6, ensuring that the extension column 6 moves stably up and down.
[0042] Example 3:
[0043] Based on embodiment 2, in order to prevent the data cable 15 from getting tangled or damaged when the extension post 6 moves, a guide ring 16 is provided at the bottom of the inner wall of the frame 1.
[0044] Specifically, a guide ring 16 is provided at the bottom of the inner wall of the frame 1, and the guide ring 16 is sleeved around the data cable 15.
[0045] It should be noted that the guide ring 16 guides and protects the data cable 15, preventing the data cable 15 from getting tangled or damaged when the extension post 6 moves.
[0046] Specifically, a sealing gasket 14 is provided at the bottom opening of the frame 1.
[0047] In this embodiment, the sealing gasket 14 fills the gap at the bottom opening of the frame 1, seals the opening, prevents water from entering the interior of the frame 1, and ensures the safety of the electronic components inside the assembly.
[0048] In use, the operator lifts the handle of the frame 1 to bring the underwater observation mirror assembly to a suitable observation position, and adjusts the position of the extension column 6 by turning the handwheel 7 to move the observation mirror 5 to a certain height underwater for easy observation. The growth of lotus roots is monitored through the display screen 11. The protective mirror 13 can effectively protect the lens 12, and the sealing gasket 14 prevents water from entering the frame 1 and damaging the internal electronic components. If it is necessary to fix the underwater observation mirror assembly for a long time, the mounting bracket 4 is unfolded, and the underwater observation mirror assembly is fixed to the pond bank by bolts that fit the pin holes on the mounting bracket 4.
[0049] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
