Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of soil testing technology, and in particular to a soil testing device for vegetable cultivation. Background Technology

[0002] Soil testing is a technique that assesses the physical properties of soil, including its moisture, air, and heat characteristics, without causing chemical changes. This type of testing is closely related to farmland irrigation, drainage engineering, and soil management, and is fundamental to agricultural planning and soil improvement. Its core measurement content includes indicators such as soil bulk density, specific gravity, porosity, structure, and mechanical composition, involving various methods such as the ring sampler method, the hydrometer bottle method, and the dry sieving method. For example, soil bulk density reflects the mass of soil per unit volume, porosity characterizes soil aeration, and mechanical composition determines soil texture. In addition, the testing also covers parameters such as soil adhesion, expansion and contraction characteristics, air composition, and temperature, which are quantitatively analyzed using instruments such as geothermometers and gas chromatographs. The results of these measurements provide a scientific basis for optimizing cultivation conditions and regulating the soil environment.

[0003] Some existing soil testing devices have probes that tend to stick to the soil surface after insertion, requiring timely cleaning after testing. This process is cumbersome, increases the workload of staff, and reduces the efficiency of soil testing. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of some existing soil testing devices, where the surface of the probe is easily covered with soil after insertion into the soil for testing, requiring timely cleaning after testing. This process is cumbersome, increases the workload of workers, and reduces the efficiency of soil testing. The invention provides a soil testing device for vegetable cultivation.

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a soil testing device for vegetable planting, including a base, a sleeve installed on the base, a first electric push rod installed inside the sleeve, a probe body installed at the telescopic end of the first electric push rod, a sensor assembly installed on the probe body, and a lifting channel for the probe body to move up and down between the base and the sleeve. The first electric push rod can push the probe body to extend out of the base along the lifting channel to perform soil testing.

[0006] The sleeve is equipped with multiple sets of nozzles corresponding to the probe body. The water outlets of these nozzles are angled towards the outer surface of the probe body, and the nozzles are evenly distributed around the circumference of the probe body. A liquid storage tank connected to the water inlet of the nozzles is installed on the sleeve. By setting multiple sets of nozzles evenly distributed around the circumference of the probe body, the probe body can be thoroughly cleaned, removing the soil adhering to it. The cleaned soil can be directly discharged through the bottom of the lifting channel, thereby improving the convenience of cleaning the probe body, effectively saving manpower, and keeping the probe body clean after testing. This ensures the accuracy of the sensor components on the probe body during subsequent soil testing.

[0007] A handle is installed on the upper part of the sleeve, and a controller is installed on the handle. The controller is connected to the first electric push rod, the sensor assembly, and the nozzle. The handle makes the device easy to move, and the connection between the controller and the first electric push rod, the sensor assembly, and the nozzle improves the ease of operation. The controller can control the raising and lowering of the probe body through the first electric push rod to detect soil at different depths. The controller is equipped with a data processing unit connected to the sensor assembly for further analysis of the data detected by the sensor assembly. The controller is connected to the nozzle to control the nozzle to rinse the surface of the probe body.

[0008] A further technical solution is to install two sets of second electric push rods connected to the controller inside the base. The telescopic ends of the two sets of second electric push rods are equipped with scrapers adapted to the outer surface of the probe body. The scrapers are made of flexible rubber. By setting the scrapers at the telescopic ends of the second electric push rods, the soil adhering to the outer surface of the probe body can be scraped off, further improving the cleaning effect of the device on the probe body.

[0009] A further technical solution is that a mounting base is installed on the telescopic end of the first electric push rod, and a motor is installed inside the mounting base. The probe body is installed on the power output end of the motor. By setting the motor, the probe body can be driven to rotate, which not only makes it easy to adjust the angle of the probe body for easy detection by the sensor component, but also drives the probe body to rotate when the nozzle washes the surface of the probe body, further improving the cleaning effect on the outer surface of the probe body.

[0010] A further technical solution is that the sensor assembly includes a soil moisture sensor, a soil temperature sensor, a soil nutrient sensor, a soil pH sensor, and a pressure sensor. The pressure sensor is located on the bottom surface of the probe body and is used to detect the pressure changes experienced by the probe body when it is inserted into the soil. By setting up the soil moisture sensor, soil temperature sensor, soil nutrient sensor, and soil pH sensor, comprehensive monitoring of soil texture data can be achieved. Setting up the pressure sensor on the bottom surface of the probe body to detect the pressure changes experienced by the probe body when it is inserted into the soil ensures the safety of the probe body.

[0011] A further technical solution is that the soil moisture sensor, soil temperature sensor, soil nutrient sensor, soil pH sensor, and pressure sensor all support IP-level waterproof and dustproof capabilities. By setting these sensors to support IP-level waterproof and dustproof capabilities, it is ensured that the sensor components can be used in different soil environments, thus guaranteeing the lifespan of the sensor components.

[0012] A further technical solution is that slide rods are installed on both sides of the lifting channel, and the two sides of the moving end of the first electric push rod are slidably connected to the slide rods through guide rods. The sliding connection between the two sides of the moving end of the first electric push rod and the slide rods through guide rods can limit the movement of the moving end of the first electric push rod, ensuring the stability of the probe body on the moving end of the first electric push rod when it is raised and lowered.

[0013] A further technical solution is to have anti-slip textures on the bottom surface of the base, which can improve the stability of the base on the soil.

[0014] This invention has the following advantages: By setting multiple sets of nozzles evenly distributed around the circumference of the probe body, the probe body can be thoroughly cleaned, removing the soil adhering to it. At the same time, the cleaned soil can be directly discharged through the bottom of the lifting channel, thereby improving the convenience of cleaning the probe body, effectively saving manpower, keeping the probe body clean after testing, and ensuring the accuracy of the sensor components on the probe body in subsequent soil testing.
