Description

Technical Field

[0002] Epimedium is a perennial herb, 20-60 cm tall, and a commonly used traditional Chinese medicine for treating impotence, seminal emission, weakness of muscles and bones, and rheumatic pain caused by kidney yang deficiency. Because Epimedium is a perennial herb, understanding its fertilizer requirements at different phenological stages and growth phases is crucial for improving its quality and yield. Currently, Epimedium seedlings are mainly cultivated directly in soil. However, due to the high environmental requirements of Epimedium seedlings, the survival rate is low.

[0028] The two ends of the slide rod 22 are rotatably connected to the first mounting platform 21 through bearings; the width of the first mounting platform 21 is not greater than the width of the seedling rack 1.

[0029] Several raised truncated cones 31 are formed on the seedling board 3; the raised truncated cones 31 are placed at the center of the four seedling grids 4 or at the center between the boundary of the two seedling grids 4 and the seedling board 3; adjacent raised truncated cones 31 form an arc-shaped baffle 32; the bottom end of the arc-shaped baffle 32 extends to form a seedling trough; several positioning grooves 33 are opened circumferentially on the inner wall of the seedling trough.

[0031] The spraying and fertilizing mechanism includes a transmission component and a fertilizing component; the transmission component includes two second mounting platforms 5 fixedly installed on the outside of the guard 2; each of the two second mounting platforms 5 is equipped with a lead screw 51 and a servo motor 52; the lead screw 51 is fixedly connected to the servo motor 52 through a coupling; a lead screw nut 53 is installed on the lead screw 51; a gantry frame 54 is installed on the two lead screw nuts 53; the fertilizing component is installed on the gantry frame 54.

[0034] One end of the spray pipe 61 is set horizontally, and the other end is bent downwards at an angle; a screen is also installed at the bottom of the spray pipe 61.

[0035] The crossbeam of the gantry 54 is perpendicular to the traction rope 23.

[0036] In one embodiment of the present invention, the gantry frame 54 slides horizontally on the lead screw 52 via the lead screw nut 53, thereby adjusting the watering and fertilization area of ​​the water supply pipe 55; the lead screw 52 adjusts the direction of movement of the gantry frame 54 by rotating forward and backward.

[0037] In one embodiment of the present invention, in order to prevent the shaft 63 from tilting due to excessive force and to prevent damage to the gantry frame 54, a sleeve 64 is provided on the shaft 63 to enhance the stability of the shaft 63.

[0038] In one embodiment of the present invention, in order to enhance the stability of the connection between the sleeve 64 and the gantry 54, and also to enhance the supporting effect of the sleeve 64 on the shaft 63, the length ratio of the sleeve 64 to the shaft 63 is 1:2, the inner diameter of the sleeve 64 is equal to the outer diameter of the shaft 63, and the length ratio of the sleeve 64 to the shaft 63 is set to 1:2.

[0039] In one embodiment of the present invention, a screen is provided to atomize the medicine; the micropore diameter of the screen is 1mm-4mm, which can make the atomized particles as small as possible, thereby improving the atomization effect of the medicine.

[0040] In one embodiment of the present invention, the seedling grid 4 is inserted into the seedling trough by positioning protrusion 41, and the positioning protrusion 41 is offset from the position of the seedling trough by rotating the seedling grid to form a fixed position; by abutting against the arc-shaped baffle 32 by abutting protrusion 42, the stability of horizontal fixation can be enhanced; at the same time, it is easy to pick up.

[0041] In one embodiment of the present invention, during the spraying and fertilization process, the pesticide sprayed from the spray pipe 61 splashes and is contained by the inner inclined side of the shield 2. The pesticide is then directed into the seedling grid by the arc-shaped baffle 32 formed by connecting several raised truncated cones 31, thus preventing waste.

[0042] Generally, foliar fertilizer can be absorbed and utilized by tree leaves within 15 mm to 2 hours after spraying. However, the absorption intensity and speed are related to leaf age, fertilizer composition, and solution concentration. Young leaves of Epimedium generally absorb water faster and have a higher absorption rate than older leaves, and the underside of the leaves absorbs water more quickly than the upper surface. Therefore, it is essential to spray the underside of the leaves evenly to facilitate absorption by the tree. Different compounds of the same element enter the leaf at different rates. The pH of the spray solution also affects the penetration rate. Furthermore, the rate of solution concentration, temperature, humidity, wind speed, and the water content within the plant all influence the effectiveness of foliar fertilization. Therefore, understanding the internal and external factors affecting tree absorption is crucial for maximizing the effectiveness of foliar fertilization.

[0043] In one embodiment of the present invention, the shield 2 is inclined, and the shading cloth 24 is laid out through the traction groove opened on the shield 2. The traction rope 23 is used as the traction, and the drive motor 23 is used as the drive source to realize the raising and lowering of the shading cloth 24 on the slide rod 22. Since the two slide rods 22 are at different heights, the raising and lowering of the shading cloth 24 is simple and not easy to deviate or get stuck.

[0044] In one embodiment of the present invention, partial or complete shading can be achieved by adjusting the arrangement of the shading cloth 24 on the traction rope 23.

[0045] Furthermore, since Epimedium seedlings are sun-loving plants and tolerant of shade, some leaves may turn green when the light intensity is slightly poor or the density is too high. In this case, shading cloth 24 is used to adjust the light intensity and prevent the leaves from turning green.

[0046] Furthermore, placing the Epimedium seedlings in an environment of 15.22℃ facilitates germination.

[0047] In one embodiment of the present invention, the fertilization of Epimedium generally involves two stages: basal fertilizer and top dressing. Basal fertilizer should be applied early, and top dressing should be applied skillfully; basal fertilizer is the basic fertilizer that supplies nutrients to the plant over a relatively long period.

[0048] Furthermore, during the basal fertilization process, slow-release organic fertilizers, such as humic acid fertilizers, compost, manure, pen manure, fish manure, blood fertilizer, as well as crop straw, branches, fallen leaves, etc., are applied in seedling grid 4, so that they can be gradually decomposed and provided for trees to absorb and utilize macro- and micro-elements for a longer period of time.

[0049] Furthermore, foliar fertilization is employed; this mainly involves the fertilizer entering the leaves through the stomata and cuticle of the Epimedium leaves, and then being transported to the tree and its various organs. In recent years, the development of sprinkler irrigation machinery has greatly promoted the widespread application of foliar fertilization technology.

[0051] The embodiments described above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Various modifications and improvements made by those skilled in the art to the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the spirit of the present invention should fall within the protection scope defined by the claims of the present invention.
