Compared with the prior art, the invention provides a method and a device for detecting the thickness of surface straws, which have the following beneficial effects:
1. the invention can detect the covering thickness of the straw on the ground in real time, and can provide 2 values of the covering thickness of the straw in the process of operating the straw thickness detector for one week. The detection range of the invention can be accurate to the operation point, and is not approximate statistics and rough estimation aiming at the straw coverage in a certain area. In addition, the invention also has the advantage of accurate detection result, and the detection result can be accurate to millimeter level.
2. In the actual operation process, the probe assembly is firstly contacted with the corn straws, then the probe assembly is contacted with the soil, the tail end of the probe assembly is connected with the conductivity sensing module, based on the characteristic that the conductivity of the straws is greatly different from that of the soil, when the probe assembly is positioned on a straw layer, the conductivity sensing module can detect the conductivity value fluctuating within a certain range, and when the probe assembly is contacted with the soil, the conductivity value detected by the conductivity sensing module generates step mutation, so the invention can immediately sense the position of a straw-soil interface, and has the advantage of quick response.

Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be obtained by a person skilled in the art without any inventive step based on the embodiments of the present invention, are within the scope of the present invention.
Please refer to fig. 1-7. Themounting shaft 62 of the invention is arranged on a special mechanism of the no-tillage planter supporting the mounting shaft, and the surface straw thickness detecting instrument of the invention can roll under the pushing of the no-tillage planter. At the moment shown in fig. 6, theprobe assembly 2 just penetrates through the straw covering layer and then contacts with soil, in the process, the conductivity value detected by theconductivity sensing module 5 is changed from the conductivity of the straw to the conductivity of the soil, and at the moment, the pose sensing module 1 records the included angle theta between theprobe assembly 2 and the vertical downward direction. For a surface straw thickness measuring instrument of the present invention, the radius d of the rim 3 and the distance l from the axial line of themounting shaft 62 to the soil-enteringtip 21 on theprobe assembly 2 are known by formula
