The bag type case 110 is a case in which the bird measuring device 120, the terminal 130, and the circuit board part 140 are built, and is provided with a handle for easy carrying, and a variety of general briefcases and the like. It may have a form. The bag type case 110 may be formed of an aluminum material, but is not necessarily limited thereto.

A charging power input terminal 111, a USB port 112, and a display unit 113 are provided outside the side surface of the bag type case 110. Accordingly, the outside of the bag-shaped case 110, the charging power supply through the power input terminal 111, the connection of the external device 10 through the USB port 112, and the display unit 113 It is possible to display the state of charge through. Detailed description thereof will be described later.

The tide meter 120 is provided to be stored and withdrawn in the bag-type case (110). The algae measuring device 120 is a device for measuring the ecological environment and toxicity by measuring the amount of algae, such as rivers, rivers, and can determine the amount of algae by measuring the amount of fluorescence from the algae.

The algae detector 120 may be used for fluorescence measurement of chlorophyll-a or green algae, but its use is not necessarily limited thereto. For detailed principles and configurations of the algae detector 120, refer to Patent Application No. 10-2008-0018146 or the previously known techniques by the applicant.

The algae detector 120 includes a first communication unit 121 and a first battery 122. The first communication unit 121 is used to transmit the measured bird flow measurement data to the terminal 130 or the external device 10. The first communication unit 121 may be used in various ways, such as RS232 communication, Bluetooth communication. The first battery 122 provides a driving power source of the tidal flow meter 120.

* The terminal 130 is to be accommodated and withdrawn in the interior of the bag-type case 110 on one side of the bird measuring device 120, has a form of a PC-type PMP.

The terminal 130 includes a second communication unit 131, a monitor 132, and a second battery 133. The second communication unit 131 receives the bird measurement data from the first communication unit 121 of the bird detector 120. The second communication unit 131 may be used in various ways such as USB communication, Bluetooth communication. Of course, the second communication unit 131 may also be used to transmit data received from the first communication unit 121 or data processed therein to the external device 10.

In addition, the monitor unit 132 processes and displays the received algae measurement data on a screen. At this time, the data can be displayed in conjunction with the Excel program. The second battery 133 provides driving power for the terminal 130.

Conventionally, accuracy of measurement data is problematic due to biological errors caused by environmental changes (ex, temperature, humidity, quantity of light, time delay, and other environments) that occur when data measured in the field are sampled and then moved back to the laboratory. There is a disadvantage that occurs. However, according to the portable algae measuring apparatus 100, it is possible to provide accurate and reliable measurement results in the field through the real-time communication and data transfer between the algae measurement unit 120 and the terminal 130.

Here, when both the first communication unit 121 and the second communication unit 131 of the terminal 130 side is a Bluetooth communication method, the communication between each other is conveniently performed wirelessly without a wire line. There is an advantage that can be. In addition, if the external device 10 is a device that supports Bluetooth communication, communication between the bird meter 120 and the external device 10, or between the terminal 130 and the external device 10 can also be conveniently performed wirelessly. Can be.

The circuit board unit 140 is provided in the bag type case 110 to be stored and withdrawn. The circuit board unit 140 may include a power supply unit 141, a first charging unit 142, a second charging unit 143, a charging sensing unit 144, a gender unit 145, and a USB hub unit 146. .
