[0001] The present disclosure relates to a cultivation house.

[0002] A known configuration of a cultivation house for growing plants is one in which a tunnel-shaped small house is constructed inside a building made of vinyl, glass, etc., in which plants are placed, and temperature-regulating gas is circulated inside the small house to regulate the temperature of the plants inside the small house (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

[0003] Patent No. 6861883

[0004] In the cultivation greenhouse described in Patent Document 1, the plants are enclosed from the sides and above, which may reduce the amount of sunlight reaching the plants and the activity of pollinating insects.

[0005] The present disclosure has been made in consideration of the above, and aims to provide a cultivation house that can efficiently regulate the temperature of plants and suppress a reduction in the amount of solar radiation on plants and a reduction in the activity of pollinating insects.

[0006] The cultivation house according to the present disclosure comprises a light-transmitting building, a cultivation shelf arranged inside the building on which the plants to be cultivated are placed, an enclosure member provided on the cultivation shelf and surrounding the sides of the plants so as to leave the top of the plants open, and a temperature control device that supplies temperature-controlled gas to the space enclosed by the enclosure member.

[0007] According to the present disclosure, a cultivation house can be provided that can efficiently regulate the temperature of plants and suppress a reduction in the amount of solar radiation on plants and a reduction in the activity of pollinating insects.

[0008] Fig. 1 is a front view showing an example of a cultivation house according to this embodiment. Fig. 2 is a plan view showing an example of the internal configuration of the cultivation house. Fig. 3 is a diagram showing an example of an enclosing member. Fig. 4 is a diagram showing an example of an enclosing member. Fig. 5 is a diagram showing an example of a temperature adjustment device. Fig. 6 is a diagram showing an example of a temperature adjustment device.

[0009] Hereinafter, embodiments of the cultivation greenhouse according to the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that the present invention is not limited to these embodiments. Furthermore, the components in the following embodiments include those that are easily replaceable by those skilled in the art, or those that are substantially identical.

[0010] FIG. 1 is a front view showing an example of a cultivation house 100 according to this embodiment. FIG. 2 is a plan view showing an example of the internal configuration of the cultivation house 100. The cultivation house 100 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is built, for example, on the ground surface G outdoors, and cultivates plants P by mainly taking in natural light such as sunlight. Examples of the plants P include strawberries, but are not limited to strawberries and may be other types of plants. The cultivation house 100 includes a building 10, a cultivation shelf 20, an enclosure member 30, and a temperature control device 40.

[0011] The building 10 houses the plants P to be cultivated. The building 10 transmits light of wavelengths that allow the plants P to perform photosynthesis. The building 10 is formed using a transparent material such as vinyl or glass. The materials constituting the building 10 are not limited to those mentioned above, and other materials may be used as long as they transmit light of wavelengths that allow the plants P to perform photosynthesis. The building 10 is arranged in an extended state on a frame 11 that serves as a framework. The building 10 has a front portion 10a and a back portion 10b that serve as gables, side portions 10c and 10d, and a ceiling portion 10e. Doors (not shown) are arranged on the front portion 10a, back portion 10b, or side portions 10c and 10d of the building 10.

[0012] The building 10 is equipped with a ventilation device 12, a shading sheet 13, and a heat-insulating curtain 14. The ventilation device 12 takes in air from outside the building 10 and exhausts air from inside the building 10 to the outside. The building 10 may be configured such that a lining is provided along the ceiling 10e below the ventilation device 12. The lining is arranged to separate the space housing the plants P from the space in the ceiling along the ceiling 10e. The ventilation device 12 also takes in air into the space in the ceiling and exhausts the air from that space. With this configuration, the ventilation device 12 takes in outside air into the space in the ceiling, thereby regulating the temperature of the space housing the plants P via the lining.

[0013] The shading sheet 13 can be placed, for example, below the ceiling 10e of the building 10. The shading sheet 13 reflects or absorbs at least a portion of light such as sunlight. The shading sheet 13 may be switchable between, for example, a covered state in which it covers at least a portion of the lower part of the ceiling 10e, and an open state in which it does not cover the lower part of the ceiling 10e.

[0014] The insulating curtain 14 can be placed, for example, on the outside of the side surfaces 10c, 10d of the building 10. The insulating curtain 14 reflects or absorbs at least a portion of light, such as sunlight. The insulating curtain 14 may be switchable between, for example, a covered state in which at least a portion of the side surfaces 10c, 10d are covered, and an open state in which the side surfaces 10c, 10d are not covered. Furthermore, the insulating curtain 14 can reduce the amount of heat passing through the building 10 by acting as a heat shield when sunlight is not irradiated or when the sunlight is weak. This can prevent the temperature inside the building 10 from becoming too high in summer and from becoming too low in winter, for example.

[0015] The cultivation shelf 20 is placed inside the building 10 and places the plants P on it. The cultivation shelf 20 has a shelf portion 21 and a support portion 22. The plants P and soil for planting the plants P are placed on the shelf portion 21. The support portion 22 supports the shelf portion 21.

[0016] The cultivation shelves 20 are formed so that their longitudinal axis is in the first direction D1. The plants P are arranged on the cultivation shelves 20 so that multiple plants are lined up in the first direction D1. Multiple cultivation shelves 20 are arranged in one building 10 in a second direction D2 that is perpendicular to the first direction D1 along a horizontal plane. The first direction D1 and the second direction D2 are each perpendicular to the up-down direction D3. Each cultivation shelf 20 is arranged to be movable in the second direction D2. For example, wheels 22a are provided on the bottom of the support portion 22. Rails (not shown) that guide the wheels 22a in the second direction D2 are provided on the ground of the building 10. By moving the wheels 22a along the rails, the cultivation shelves 20 can be moved in the second direction D2. Moving the cultivation shelves 20 in the second direction D2 ensures that a worker can enter between the cultivation shelves 20. This allows the cultivation shelves 20 to be efficiently arranged in the second direction D2 within the building 10.

[0017] At least one of the cultivation shelves 20 is provided with a detection unit 25. The detection unit 25 detects the temperature of the portion of the cultivation shelf 20 surrounded by the enclosing member 30. The detection unit 25 can transmit the detection result to the temperature adjustment device 40. The detection units 25 can be configured to be disposed, for example, on every other cultivation shelf 20 lined up in the second direction D2. Note that the arrangement of the detection units 25 is not limited to the above and may be other arrangements.

[0018] An enclosure member 30 is provided for each cultivation shelf 20. FIGS. 3 and 4 are diagrams illustrating an example of the enclosure member 30. The enclosure member 30 is supported by the cultivation shelf 20 and moves integrally with the cultivation shelf 20 when the cultivation shelf 20 moves in the second direction D2. The enclosure member 30 is configured to enclose the sides of the plants P so that the upper side of the plants P is open to the interior of the building 10. As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 , the enclosure member 30 may be configured to enclose at least a height range H covering the entire plants P. The enclosure member 30 may be configured to enclose at least a height range HL of the plants P from the upper end of the cultivation shelf 20 to the lowest leaf PL. Alternatively, the enclosure member 30 may be configured to enclose at least a height range HC of the root portion PC of the plants P extending from the upper end of the cultivation shelf 20. The enclosure member 30 has an opening 30a that opens above the plants P. In this embodiment, the enclosure member 30 surrounds the bottom and sides of the cultivation shelf 20. The enclosure member 30 has a bottom 31, a first wall 32, and a second wall 33. The bottom 31 is disposed below the cultivation shelf 20 and extends upward from both sides of the cultivation shelf 20 in the second direction D2. The bottom 31 may be configured to be supported by the support portions 22 of the cultivation shelf 20, for example.

[0019] The enclosure member 30 is capable of retaining a temperature-controlled gas in a space (hereinafter referred to as a retention space) K surrounded by the bottom portion 31, the first wall portion 32, and the second wall portion 33. The retention space K is a space defined by the bottom portion 31, the first wall portion 32, the second wall portion 33, and an opening 30a formed by the first wall portion 32 and the second wall portion 33. The enclosure member 30 is provided so that the entire plant P is accommodated in the retention space K.

[0020] The first wall portion 32 and the second wall portion 33 are provided to protrude upward from the cultivation shelf 20. The dimensions of the first wall portion 32 and the second wall portion 33 in the vertical direction D3 are set so that, for example, when surrounding the plant P, they are arranged in a range in the vertical direction D3 that is wider than the height range H that covers the entire plant P. This allows the temperature-controlled gas to be distributed throughout the entire height of the plant P. The first wall portion 32 is arranged to face both end faces of the cultivation shelf 20 in the first direction D1. The first wall portion 32 is supported by the bottom portion 31.

[0021] The second wall portions 33 are arranged to face both end surfaces of the cultivation shelf 20 in the second direction D2. The second wall portions 33 have hook members 34 at their upper ends. The hook members 34 can be hung on the upper frame 35 or the lower frame 36. The upper frame 35 and the lower frame 36 extend along the cultivation shelf 20 and are arranged one above the other. In this embodiment, the upper frame 35 and the lower frame 36 extend, for example, along the first direction D1.

[0022] 3, by hanging the hook members 34 on the upper frame 35, the bottom 31, the first wall 32, and the second wall 33 are positioned at a holding position P1 surrounding the sides of the plant P and the bottom of the cultivation shelf 20. In other words, by hanging the hook members 34 on the upper frame 35 and positioning the second wall 33 at the holding position P1, a holding space K is formed.

[0023] 4, by hanging the hook members 34 on the lower frame 36, the second wall portion 33 is positioned at an open position P2 that leaves the side of the plant P open. In this case, workers can easily access the plant P, making it easier to perform work, etc.

[0024] In this way, by switching between hooking the hook members 34 on the upper frame 35 and the lower frame 36, it is possible to move the second wall portion 33 in the up-down direction D3.

[0025] The temperature adjusting device 40 supplies a temperature adjusting gas to the holding space K surrounded by the enclosing member 30. The temperature adjusting device 40 includes a pipe 41 and a supply device 42.

[0026] The piping 41 is provided for each cultivation shelf 20. The piping 41 extends in a first direction D1, which is the longitudinal direction of the cultivation shelf 20. For example, the piping 41 may be provided such that the portion from the connection with the supply device 42 to the connection with the enclosing member 30 can be deformed in response to movement of the cultivation shelf 20 in the second direction D2.

[0027] The piping 41 is connected to the supply device 42 and is provided so as to penetrate the first wall portion 32 of the enclosing member 30. The piping 41 is disposed, for example, below the cultivation shelf 20 and above the bottom portion 31 of the enclosing member 30. The piping 41 has a gas outlet 41a. The gas outlet 41a is formed toward the enclosed portion of the enclosing member 30. The gas outlets 41a are arranged in a row in the first direction D1.

[0028] The supply device 42 adjusts the temperature (e.g., cools) the gas inside or outside the building 10 and supplies the temperature-adjusted gas to the piping 41. The supply device 42 is arranged in a position on the first direction D1 relative to the cultivation shelves 20. In the present embodiment, the supply device 42 is arranged in the first direction D1 at a position between the cultivation shelves 20 arranged side by side in the first direction D1.

[0029] The supply device 42 is connected to a plurality of pipes 41 via a header 43. The supply device 42 supplies a temperature-controlled gas to the plurality of pipes 41 via the header 43. The supply device 42 may adjust the temperature of the temperature-controlled gas in accordance with the detection result of the detection unit 25.

[0030] 5 and 6 are diagrams schematically illustrating an example of the temperature adjustment device 40. Illustrated in Fig. 5 and Fig. 6 is an example in which gas outlets 41a are formed in a row in the pipe 41. As shown in Fig. 5 and Fig. 6, the gas outlets 41a are formed such that the opening area of ​​the pipe 41 increases from the supply device 42 side toward the opposite side of the supply device 42 in the first direction D1.

[0031] For example, as shown in Fig. 5, the gas outlets 41a may be configured so that the diameter gradually increases from the supply device 42 side toward the opposite side of the supply device 42. Also, as shown in Fig. 6, the gas outlets 41a may be configured so that the pitch gradually decreases from the supply device 42 side toward the opposite side of the supply device 42.

[0032] 5 and 6 , the opening area of ​​the pipe 41 gradually increases from the supply device 42 side toward the opposite side of the supply device 42. With this configuration, the amount of temperature-control gas ejected from the pipe 41 into the enclosure 30 becomes uniform in the first direction D1.

[0033] In the cultivation greenhouse 100 configured as described above, soil and plants P are placed on the cultivation shelves 20, and with the second wall portion 33 of the enclosure member 30 positioned at the holding position P1, the temperature control device 40 supplies temperature control gas into the interior of the enclosure member 30. The temperature control gas flows from the supply device 42 through the piping 41, and is ejected from the gas outlet 41a of the piping 41 into the interior of the enclosure member 30. In this case, because the opening area of ​​the piping 41 gradually decreases from the supply device 42 side toward the opposite side of the supply device 42, the amount of temperature control gas ejected into the interior of the enclosure member 30 is uniform in the first direction D1.

[0034] When the temperature-controlled gas is supplied to the inside of the enclosure member 30 by the temperature control device 40, the temperature-controlled gas is retained inside the enclosure member 30. By retaining the temperature-controlled gas locally around the plant P, the temperature around the plant P can be more efficiently controlled than when the temperature of the entire building 10 is controlled. Furthermore, the enclosure member 30 is positioned such that the upper ends of the first wall portion 32 and the second wall portion 33 are higher than the height position of the plant P. Therefore, the temperature-controlled gas retained inside the enclosure member 30 is supplied to the entire plant P in the height direction. Furthermore, because the top of the plant P is open to the inside of the building 10, a reduction in the amount of sunlight reaching the plant P is suppressed, creating an environment in which pollinating insects can easily be active.

[0035] When a worker works on the cultivation shelves 20, the plants P, the soil, or the like, the cultivation shelves 20 to be worked on and the surrounding cultivation shelves 20 can be moved in the second direction D2 to ensure space for the worker to enter. By placing the second wall portion 33 of the enclosing member 30 in the open position P2, the worker can easily access the cultivation shelves 20, the plants P, the soil, or the like.

[0036] As described above, the cultivation house 100 of this embodiment comprises a light-transmitting building 10, a cultivation shelf 20 arranged inside the building 10 and on which the plant P to be cultivated is placed, an enclosure member 30 provided on the cultivation shelf 20 and surrounding the sides of the plant P so as to leave the top of the plant P open, and a temperature control device 40 that supplies temperature-controlled gas to the holding space K surrounded by the enclosure member 30.

[0037] According to this configuration, the temperature-controlled gas can be held in the holding space K surrounded by the enclosing member 30. This allows for efficient temperature control of the plant P. Furthermore, because the enclosing member 30 is positioned so that the top of the plant P is open to the inside of the building 10, it is possible to suppress a reduction in the amount of solar radiation on the plant P and a reduction in the activity of pollinating insects.

[0038] In the cultivation greenhouse 100 according to this embodiment, the enclosing member 30 encloses at least a height range HC of the root portions PC of the plants P that extend from the upper end of the cultivation shelf 20. Therefore, the temperature of the height range HC of the root portions PC of the plants P can be efficiently regulated.

[0039] In the cultivation house 100 according to this embodiment, the enclosing member 30 encloses at least a height range HL from the upper end of the cultivation shelf 20 to the lowest leaf PL of the plant P. Therefore, it is possible to efficiently regulate the temperature in the height range HL from the upper end of the cultivation shelf 20 to the lowest leaf PL of the plant P (for example, the root portion PC and the upper portion thereof).

[0040] In the cultivation greenhouse 100 according to this embodiment, the enclosing member 30 can be configured to enclose, for example, at least a height range H that covers the entire plant P. Therefore, the temperature can be efficiently controlled in the height range H that covers the entire plant P.

[0041] In the cultivation house 100 according to this embodiment, the enclosing member 30 is provided so as to enclose the bottom and sides of the cultivation shelf 20. Therefore, the temperature-regulating gas can be held in the holding space K including the cultivation shelf 20.

[0042] In the cultivation greenhouse 100 according to this embodiment, at least a portion of the enclosing member 30 is provided so as to be movable in the vertical direction D3. Therefore, by moving at least a portion of the enclosing member 30 in the vertical direction D3, a situation can be created in which an operator can easily access the cultivation shelves 20.

[0043] In the cultivation greenhouse 100 according to this embodiment, the enclosing member 30 has a second wall portion 33 facing the cultivation shelf 20, an upper frame 35 and a lower frame 36 that extend along the cultivation shelf 20 and are arranged one above the other, and a hook member 34 that is provided at the upper end of the second wall portion 33 and can be hung by switching between the upper frame 35 and the lower frame 36. Therefore, by hanging the hook member 34 by switching between the upper frame 35 and the lower frame 36, the second wall portion 33 can be easily moved in the vertical direction D3.

[0044] In the cultivation house 100 according to this embodiment, the cultivation shelves 20 are formed so that their longitudinal direction is in the first direction D1, and the plants P are arranged so that multiple plants P are lined up in the first direction D1. Therefore, it is possible to efficiently supply temperature-controlled gas to the multiple plants P lined up in the first direction D1.

[0045] In the cultivation greenhouse 100 according to this embodiment, the cultivation shelves 20 are formed so as to be longitudinal in a first direction D1, and the temperature control device 40 is formed so as to extend in the first direction D1 and includes a pipe 41 having a gas outlet 41a directed toward the portion surrounded by the enclosing member 30 and arranged along the first direction D1, and a supply device 42 that circulates a temperature-controlled gas through the pipe 41. Therefore, the temperature-controlled gas can be supplied in a manner that corresponds to the shape of the cultivation shelves 20 and the planting state of the plants P.

[0046] In the cultivation greenhouse 100 according to this embodiment, the piping 41 has a gas outlet 41a formed in the portion surrounded by the enclosing member 30 so that the opening area increases in the first direction D1 from the supply device 42 side toward the opposite side from the supply device 42. Therefore, the temperature-controlled gas is supplied to the portion surrounded by the enclosing member 30 at a uniform injection amount in the first direction D1.

[0047] In the cultivation house 100 according to this embodiment, the gas outlet 41a is formed so that the diameter gradually increases from the supply device 42 side toward the opposite side of the supply device 42. Therefore, the gas outlet 41a can supply the temperature-controlled gas at a uniform injection amount in the first direction D1.

[0048] In the cultivation house 100 according to this embodiment, the gas outlets 41a are formed so that the pitch between them gradually narrows from the supply device 42 side toward the opposite side of the supply device 42. Therefore, the gas outlets 41a can supply the temperature-controlled gas at a uniform injection amount in the first direction D1.

[0049] In the cultivation house 100 according to this embodiment, a plurality of cultivation shelves 20 are arranged in a second direction D2 that intersects the first direction D1 along a horizontal plane, a pipe 41 is arranged for each cultivation shelf 20, and one supply device 42 is connected to the plurality of pipes 41. Therefore, the temperature-controlled gas can be efficiently supplied from the single supply device 42 to the plurality of pipes 41.

[0050] In the cultivation greenhouse 100 according to this embodiment, the enclosing member 30 is provided to enclose at least the bottom of the cultivation shelf 20, and the piping 41 is disposed below the cultivation shelf 20 and above the bottom 31 of the enclosing member 30. Therefore, by utilizing the space below the cultivation shelf 20 and above the bottom 31 of the enclosing member 30, the piping 41 can be disposed efficiently.

[0051] In the cultivation house 100 according to this embodiment, the supply device 42 is disposed at a position on the first direction D1 relative to the cultivation shelf 20. Therefore, a space can be secured at a position on the second direction D2 relative to the cultivation shelf 20, so that an operator can perform work without interfering with the supply device 42.

[0052] In the cultivation house 100 according to this embodiment, a plurality of cultivation shelves 20 are provided, and at least one of the cultivation shelves 20 further includes a detection unit 25 that is arranged on the cultivation shelf 20 and is capable of detecting the temperature of the area surrounded by the enclosing member 30. Therefore, the temperature of the area surrounded by the enclosing member 30 can be detected efficiently.

[0053] The technical scope of the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and appropriate modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention. For example, in the above-described embodiment, the temperature adjustment device 40 supplies, as the temperature-adjusted gas, a cooled gas obtained by cooling a gas inside or outside the building 10. However, the present invention is not limited to this. The temperature adjustment device 40 may be configured to supply, as the temperature-adjusted gas, a heated gas obtained by heating a gas inside or outside the building 10.

[0054] In the above embodiment, the position where the hook member 34 is hung on the upper frame 35 is described as the holding position P1 of the second wall portion 33, but this is not limited to this. A frame corresponding to the upper frame 35 may be provided in multiple stages in the vertical direction D3. In this case, by hanging the hook member 34 on the frame, the second wall portion 33 can be moved in multiple stages in the vertical direction D3. This allows the position of the second wall portion 33 to be changed in accordance with the growth of the plant P, for example.

[0055] In the above embodiment, the first wall portion 32 of the enclosure member 30 does not move in the vertical direction D3. However, the present invention is not limited to this. The enclosure member 30 may be configured such that the first wall portion 32 moves in the vertical direction D3.
