[0035] Example 1

[0036] like Figures 1-5 The diagram shows the structure of a basket-grown edible fungus inoculation and watering device provided by the present invention. It includes: a body 1; a mycelium-inoculation unit 2 with multiple cultivation baskets stacked along its height; a rising component 3 arranged within the body 1 to support the mycelium-inoculation unit 2 before inoculation or watering; a descending component 7 arranged within the body 1 to support the mycelium-inoculation unit 2 after inoculation or watering; a translation component 4 located at the top of the body 1 for transferring the uppermost cultivation basket of the rising component 3 to the descending component 7; a spraying component 5 arranged within the body 1 for spraying liquid onto the uppermost cultivation basket within the body 1; and two conveying components 6 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the body 1. One conveying component 6 is opposite to the rising component 3 to deliver the mycelium-inoculation unit 2 before inoculation or watering into the body 1, and the other conveying component 6 is opposite to the descending component 7 to deliver the mycelium-inoculation unit 2 after inoculation or watering out of the body 1.

[0037] In practical application, this embodiment uses cultivation baskets to hold edible fungus culture medium, which are then stacked in multiple layers to form a mycelium growth unit 2. The medium is fed in and out by two conveying components 6 located on both sides of the machine body 1. An ascending component 3 inside the machine body 1 drives the mycelium growth unit 2 fed in by the conveying components 6 to rise gradually. A translation component 4 transfers the top cultivation basket to a descending component 7. Before and after transferring the cultivation basket, a spraying component 5 can spray liquid into the top cultivation basket to inoculate or replenish the water for the edible fungi. The descending component 7 then gradually descends to stack the inoculated cultivation baskets. Finally, it faces the conveying component 6 on the other side and transfers the inoculated mycelium growth unit 2 to the conveying component 6. This achieves automatic inoculation or automatic water replenishment of the edible fungus cultivation baskets, reducing the labor intensity of workers, improving operational efficiency, and meeting the inoculation and water replenishment needs of basket-grown edible fungi.

[0038] Specifically, the mycelium incubation unit 2 also includes: a tray 21 for supporting the cultivation baskets and a counterweight basket 22 for pressing onto the topmost cultivation basket. The cultivation baskets are stacked sequentially on the tray 21 along the height direction and distributed in two rows. The body 1 is provided with a support platform 11 located next to the descending component 7 for placing the counterweight basket 22.

[0039] It can be known that the cultivation basket can be lifted by the tray 21 to provide a foundation for the stacked cultivation basket, and the tray 21 can move on the conveying assembly 6 on both sides to send or take out the fungus growing unit 2 from the machine body 1, and the counterweight basket 22 is arranged to be pressed on the uppermost cultivation basket to ensure that the whole row of cultivation baskets is more stable and convenient for transfer, and the supporting table 11 beside the descending assembly 7 is convenient for placing the counterweight basket 22.

[0040] It should be noted that the fungus growing unit 2 is in a whole tray unit, which is convenient for lifting by a forklift or other transport tools in the actual production process, and then transferred to the fungus growing greenhouse to realize full automation of the transfer process and improve the transfer efficiency.

[0041] Further, the ascending assembly 3 comprises a guide rail 31 fixed in the machine body 1 and extending in the vertical direction, a support frame 32 slidably connected to the guide rail 31, a moving unit 33 arranged at the top of the support frame 32 and used for supporting the fungus growing unit 2 and moving it in the horizontal direction, two limiting units 34 symmetrically arranged at both ends of the support frame 32 and used for blocking the fungus growing unit 2, and a driving unit 35 connected to the support frame 32 and used for driving the support frame 32 to move along the guide rail 31.

[0042] It can be known that the guide rail 31 extending in the vertical direction can drive the support frame 32 to move up and down along the guide rail 31 under the action of the driving unit 35, thereby driving the fungus growing unit 2 on the moving unit 33 at the top of the support frame 32 to move up and down; since the moving unit 33 can also drive the fungus growing unit 2 to move in the horizontal direction, it is convenient to be connected with the conveying assembly 6 to complete the transfer of the fungus growing unit 2, and the limiting units 34 symmetrically arranged at both ends of the support frame 32 can limit the fungus growing unit 2 on the moving unit 33 to avoid displacement of the fungus growing unit 2 during the ascending process, thereby ensuring the stability thereof.

[0043] In one case of the embodiment, the guide rails 31 are fixed to the inner walls of the machine body 1 and the number is four. Illustratively, the guide rails 31 can be guide columns, and the four corners of the support frame 32 are slidably sleeved outside the four guide columns. Of course, they can also be other shapes of slide rails, which are not limited in the embodiment.

[0044] Further, the driving unit 35 comprises a double-output shaft motor 351 fixed to the bottom of the machine body 1, two rotating shafts 352 connected to the output end of the double-output shaft motor 351, and two lead screws 353 threadedly connected to both sides of the support frame 32 and respectively corresponding to the two rotating shafts 352, one end of each lead screw 353 is connected to one of the rotating shafts 352 through a bevel gear set, and the other end is rotatably connected to the machine body 1.

[0045] It can be known that the two shafts 352 are driven to rotate by the double-output shaft motor 351, so as to drive the two lead screws 353 to rotate by the bevel gear set, and then drive the support frame 32 which is threadedly connected with the lead screw 353 to move along the direction of the guide rail 31, so as to realize the vertical movement of the support frame 32.

[0046] It should be noted that in addition to the screw nut transmission mechanism of the lead screw 353 in the embodiment, the support frame 32 can also be driven to move along the vertical direction by a lifting cylinder or a hydraulic rod, and therefore the driving mode of the support frame 32 in the embodiment is not a restrictive provision.

[0047] In an example of the present application, the limiting unit 34 comprises a driving member 341 fixed to the end of the support frame 32, and a blocking member 342 connected with the driving member 341 and movable up and down to block the fungus unit 2.

[0048] It can be known that the driving member 341 arranged at the end of the support frame 32 is used to drive the blocking member 342 to move up and down, so as to limit the two sides of the fungus unit 2 which has completed horizontal transfer, to avoid displacement of the fungus unit 2 during the rising process.

[0049] For example, the moving unit 33 can be a synchronous belt pulley set fixed to the top of the support frame 32, which is convenient for driving the fungus unit 2 above to move horizontally; the driving member 341 can be a cylinder fixed to the end of the support frame 32, and can also be a hydraulic rod or a screw nut mechanism, and the blocking member 342 can be a block or a blocking piece, as long as it can limit the fungus unit 2, which is not limited in the embodiment.

[0050] In actual operation, the descending assembly 7 is arranged in parallel beside the ascending assembly 3 and has the same structure as the ascending assembly 3, so that the fungus unit 2 can be lowered, and the fungus unit 2 which has completed inoculation is sent out opposite to the conveying assembly 6.

[0053] It can be known that the moving frame 42 is driven to move along the guide frame 41 by the translation assembly 4, so as to transfer the cultivation basket at the top of the ascending assembly 3 to the descending assembly 7, to complete inoculation and stacking.

[0054] Further, the clamping unit 44 comprises two lifting frames 441 which can abut on both sides of the cultivation basket respectively to lift it, and two air cylinders 442 which are fixed to the moving frame 42 and connected to the two lifting frames 441 respectively.

[0055] It can be known that the two lifting frames 441 which can abut on both sides of the cultivation basket respectively can abut on both sides of the cultivation basket to lift it, and the two air cylinders 442 which are fixed to the moving frame 42 can drive the two lifting frames 441 to rise or fall.

[0056] In actual operation, the lifting frame 441 can be an L-shaped clamping groove which can abut on the basket supports on both sides of the top of the cultivation basket to lift the cultivation basket, and of course the lifting frame 441 can also be a clamping jaw as long as it can lift the cultivation basket under the drive of the air cylinder 442, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment.

[0057] For example, the transfer unit 43 comprises two installation frames which are fixedly installed on both sides of the machine body 1, two pulleys which are rotatably installed on the two installation frames respectively, a belt which is connected between the two pulleys and fixedly connected to the moving frame 42, and a motor which is fixedly installed on the machine body 1 and connected to one of the pulleys.

[0058] It can be known that the pulley and the belt can drive the moving frame 42 to move along the installation frame to complete the transfer of the cultivation basket, and it should be noted that the transfer unit 43 can also be other driving structures in addition to the motor and pulley mechanism in the application, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment.

[0059] Embodiment 3

[0060] As shown in Figs. Figure 7 and Figure 8 On the basis of Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, the spraying assembly 5 comprises a plurality of liquid guide pipes 51 which are fixedly installed on the machine body 1 and opposite to the uppermost cultivation basket of the lifting assembly 3, a liquid outlet head 52 which is installed on one end of each liquid guide pipe 51 and located above the uppermost cultivation basket of the machine body 1, and a liquid guide pump (not shown in the figure) which is connected to the end of each liquid guide pipe 51 away from the liquid outlet head 52.

[0061] In actual operation, the liquid guide pump supplies the liquid to the plurality of liquid guide pipes 51 to spray the liquid or water on the uppermost cultivation basket through the liquid outlet head 52 located above the uppermost cultivation basket of the lifting assembly 3 to complete the inoculation or water replenishment, and then the uppermost cultivation basket of the lifting assembly 3 which has completed the inoculation or water replenishment is transferred to the lowering assembly 7.

[0062] It should be noted that the spraying assembly 5 can be arranged above the cultivation basket opposite to the ascending assembly 3, or above the cultivation basket opposite to the descending assembly 7, or can move along with the translating assembly 4 to achieve different spraying requirements; of course, the liquid guide pipe 51 can also be arranged as a telescopic pipe to move along with the translating assembly 4 to facilitate the spraying action during the movement of the uppermost cultivation basket, thus the installation position of the spraying assembly 5 and the sequence of the spraying and transferring of the cultivation baskets are not limited.

[0063] Further, as shown in Figure 9 the conveying assembly 6 comprises a fixed frame 61 arranged beside the machine body 1 and a synchronous belt 62 mounted on the fixed frame 61, which facilitates the conveying and transferring of the whole set of the fungus growing units 2 to realize the automation of the transferring process.
