Disclosed is a design method for a three-dimensional special-shaped jet nozzle used in the field of water-saving irrigation in farmland. According to a method based on a gas-liquid two-phase flow theory and computational fluid dynamics (CFD), a fan-shaped jet mode and a beam-shaped jet mode are coupled according to a certain area ratio and velocity ratio, which enables a cylindrical-conical coupling structure to be presented all the way from an inlet to an outlet of the nozzle, and a jet orifice is optimally designed into a three-dimensional special-shaped slotted structure; along a flowing direction of the jet orifice, V-shaped slots are formed in bottom and front portions of a midperpendicular plane, where a fan-shaped jet capable of forming a near-range water body prevails, and a strip-shaped slot is formed in an upper half portion of the midperpendicular plane, where a beam-shaped jet capable of forming a far-range water body prevails; and the V-shaped slots and the strip-shaped slot promote the formation of a narrow-band range S in a synergistic manner due to smooth joint transition therebetween. The present disclosure is particularly suitable for farmland sprinkling irrigation operations in non-planted areas such as tractor roads and field roads, and has the unique advantages of saving water and energy, and not rolling soil and crop seedlings.

A self-propelled platform for monitoring field crop phenotype is provided. The monitoring platform includes a traveling and steering mechanism, wheel track and ground clearance adjustment devices, damping devices, and a case. The traveling and steering mechanism includes wheel side motors, wheels, and torque motors. The wheels are connected to respective upright posts of the platform through respective rigid independent suspensions. Each upright post is of sleeve structure and includes an upper sleeve and a lower sleeve. A corresponding damping device is connected between the upper sleeve and the lower sleeve. The wheel track and ground clearance adjustment devices are configured for adjusting the height of the case and the tracks between the wheels. The lower ends of the wheel track and ground clearance adjustment devices are rotatably connected to respective upright posts, and the upper ends are rotatably connected to the case.
