Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of crop canopy technology, and more specifically, it relates to a height-adjustable support device for measuring the microenvironment of crop canopy. Background Technology
[0002] The internal phenotypes and micrometeorological parameters of crop canopies influence the photosynthetically active radiation interception, latent heat and sensible heat fluxes, and CO2 exchange between the surface ecosystem and the atmosphere. These parameters are important input parameters and conditional variables in vegetation growth and development models and remote sensing data assimilation. Automated, continuous, and online monitoring of changes in canopy phenotypes and micrometeorological parameters helps to understand the different roles of environmental parameters, cultivation methods, and varietal characteristics in the vegetative and reproductive growth stages of the canopy, and contributes to the further development of precision crop cultivation, commercial breeding, and crop germplasm resource conservation.
[0003] When measuring crop canopy now, the crop grows taller over time. To measure data such as temperature, humidity, and light at the top, middle, and bottom of the crop, the height of the small instrument needs to be adjusted, which makes it inconvenient to view from the side and does not allow for easy fixation and support. Therefore, a height-adjustable support device is needed for measuring the microenvironment of crop canopy. Utility Model Content

This adjustable support device for measuring the microenvironment of crop canopy features a snap-fit mechanism. Through the combination of the instrument body and the mounting frame, the device allows the connecting plate and scale to slide within the mounting frame via a sliding block, simultaneously moving the instrument body to facilitate height measurement. A spring then moves the sliding plate and the snap-fit block, locking them into a slot for secure fixation. Pulling a lever to one side moves the sliding plate and the snap-fit block, removing the snap-fit block from the slot for disassembly and measurement of temperature, humidity, light, and other data. This completes the fixation process and achieves the desired secure positioning.
