Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of agricultural planting technology, and in particular relates to an ecological three-dimensional hydroponic planting device. Background Technology

[0002] Hydroponics is a relatively new soilless cultivation method that has emerged in recent years. Nutrient solutions are formulated based on the various nutrients required for plant growth and development, allowing plants to directly absorb and utilize them. Hydroponics is unrestricted; plants can be cultivated anywhere with air and water. Currently, there are several hydroponic methods: Deep flow (easy to maintain, plant roots are completely immersed in the nutrient solution, ensuring nutrient availability, but requires oxygen supply to prevent drowning; unsuitable for potatoes, yams, etc., and requires large water consumption); Nutrient film (also called shallow flow) is the most widely used method, where plant roots partially contact the nutrient film at the bottom of the channel; it uses less water and ensures oxygen availability, but controlling the flow rate is difficult, and nutrient absorption efficiency is low); Aeroponics involves spraying a mist of nutrient solution onto the plant roots, providing ample nutrients and oxygen, but it requires advanced technology and expensive equipment; and Tidal hydroponics involves controlling the nutrient solution to soak the plant roots at intervals, effectively utilizing water resources, but requires precise timing; uneven timing can lead to oversaturation or drying out of the plants.

[0003] Patent application number 202223368322.0 discloses an ecological three-dimensional hydroponic planting device. This patent uses a floating suspension plate and hydroponic planting nests to allow plants to float in the hydroponic planting basin. The basin also features water-regulating components at both ends and a wide-mouthed design to meet the growth needs of different types of hydroponic plants and different growth stages of the same type. However, this patent has the following shortcomings: the floating hydroponic method used in this patent is actually a type of deep-flow hydroponics, requiring continuous aeration, but this patent lacks an aeration structure, which could easily lead to plant drowning; the patent designs the hydroponic planting basin to be transparent for easy observation, but large-scale hydroponics typically uses opaque equipment to maintain temperature; the patent also mentions that when used outdoors, water tanks on both sides of the hydroponic planting basin can collect and filter rainwater, but conversely, rainwater should be avoided when using outdoor hydroponics. Most hydroponic equipment is designed to prevent water accumulation, thus preventing algae growth and reducing the oxygen content in the nutrient solution. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an ecological, three-dimensional hydroponic planting device to solve the problems existing in the prior art.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this invention to solve its technical problem is: an ecological three-dimensional hydroponic planting device, including a support frame, the support frame including a base, a vertical pole welded on the base, several horizontal supports sleeved on the vertical pole, pipe supports bolted to the horizontal supports, a hydroponic mechanism placed on the pipe supports, the hydroponic mechanism including a hydroponic trough, a pipe support installed on the inner wall of one side of the hydroponic trough, a drip irrigation pipe snapped onto the pipe support, a planting plate covering the top of the hydroponic trough, several planting holes provided on the planting plate, hydroponic cups placed in the planting holes, the drip irrigation pipe passing through one end of the hydroponic trough and connected to an inlet pipe, one end of the hydroponic trough having an outlet connected to a return pipe.

[0006] Furthermore, a through hole is provided in the center of the cross brace, and internal threaded holes are provided on both sides of the through hole. Bolts are connected to the internal threads of the internal threaded holes. The cross brace is fixed to the upright through the through hole, internal threaded holes, and bolts.

[0007] Furthermore, the hydroponic trough is open at the top, and there are protrusions on both sides of the outer wall of the upper edge of the hydroponic trough. The planting board is convex at the top, and there are grooves on the inner walls on both sides of the planting board. The protrusions and grooves are used together, and the planting board is snapped onto the hydroponic trough through the protrusions and grooves.

[0008] Furthermore, the drip irrigation pipe is a rigid round pipe with a drip irrigation hole on one side, facing the hydroponic cup, and the spacing between the drip irrigation holes is the same as the spacing between the planting holes.

[0009] Furthermore, the hydroponic tank is placed at an angle on the cross brace, with one end of the hydroponic tank's liquid outlet in a low position and the other end of the hydroponic tank sealed off.

[0010] Furthermore, the drip irrigation pipe is located at the top of the hydroponic tank, and the end of the drip irrigation pipe away from the liquid inlet pipe is sealed.

[0011] Furthermore, when in use, the hydroponic system introduces nutrient solution through an inlet pipe, which is connected in parallel with each drip irrigation pipe. The nutrient solution in the inlet pipe is sprayed onto the roots of the plant through the drip irrigation pipe and drip irrigation holes. The hydroponic tank collects the dripping nutrient solution, and the nutrient solution collected in the hydroponic tank enters the return pipe through the outlet.

[0012] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. The horizontal brace can be freely adjusted in height on the upright to adapt to the planting height requirements of different plants, whether small vegetables or large flowers and vegetables.

[0014] 2. Using drip irrigation pipes to spray nutrient solution directly onto the plant roots increases the contact area between the roots and the nutrient solution, improving the efficiency of nutrient absorption by the plants and overcoming the shortcomings of shallow liquid flow hydroponics.

[0015] 3. During hydroponics, plants do not need to be completely immersed in the nutrient solution. The plant roots can fully absorb oxygen from the air, eliminating the need to continuously supply oxygen to the hydroponic tank, thus solving the shortcomings of deep flow hydroponics.

[0016] 4. This invention has a simple structure, is easy to operate, requires low equipment investment, and has a low technical threshold, thus overcoming the shortcomings of aeroponics and tidal methods.

[0017] 5. The hydroponic system of the present invention is suitable for hydroponics of different kinds of vegetables and flowers. It can be applied to plants such as potatoes and yams that are suitable for shallow hydroponics, as well as plants such as tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce, and celery that are suitable for deep hydroponics.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] The invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] like Figure 1-3As shown, an ecological three-dimensional hydroponic planting device includes a support frame 1, which includes a base 2. A vertical pole 3 is welded onto the base 2. Several horizontal supports 4 are sleeved on the vertical pole 3. Pipe supports 5 are bolted to the horizontal supports 4. A hydroponic mechanism 9 is placed on the pipe supports 5. The hydroponic mechanism 9 includes a hydroponic trough 10. A pipe support 11 is installed on the inner wall of one side of the hydroponic trough 10. A drip irrigation pipe 12 is snapped onto the pipe support 11. A planting plate 13 is placed on the top of the hydroponic trough 10. Several planting holes 17 are provided on the planting plate 13. Hydroponic cups 18 are placed in the planting holes 17. The drip irrigation pipe 12 passes through one end of the hydroponic trough 10 and is connected to an inlet pipe 19. One end of the hydroponic trough 10 is provided with an outlet 20, which is connected to a return pipe 21. A through hole 6 is provided in the center of the cross brace 4. Internal threaded holes 7 are provided on both sides of the through hole 6, with bolts 8 connected to the internal threads of the internal threaded holes 7. The cross brace 4 is fixed to the upright 3 through the through hole 6, internal threaded holes 7, and bolts 8. The hydroponic trough 10 is open at the top. Protrusions 14 are provided on both sides of the outer wall of the upper edge of the hydroponic trough 10. The planting plate 13 is convex upwards, and grooves 15 are provided on the inner walls on both sides of the planting plate 13. The protrusions 14 and grooves 15 work together to secure the planting plate 13 to the hydroponic trough 10. The drip irrigation pipe 12 is a rigid round pipe. A drip irrigation hole 16 is provided on one side of the drip irrigation pipe 12, facing the hydroponic cup 18. The spacing of the drip irrigation holes 16 is the same as the spacing of the planting holes 17. The hydroponic trough 10 is placed at an angle on the cross brace 4, with one end of the liquid outlet 20 of the hydroponic trough 10 in a low position and the other end of the hydroponic trough 10 sealed. The drip irrigation pipe 12 is located at the top of the hydroponic tank 10, and the end of the drip irrigation pipe 12 away from the inlet pipe 19 is sealed. When the hydroponic device 9 is in use, the nutrient solution is introduced through the inlet pipe 19. The inlet pipe 19 is connected in parallel with each drip irrigation pipe 12. The nutrient solution in the inlet pipe 19 is sprayed to the roots of the plant through the drip irrigation pipe 12 and the drip irrigation hole 16. The hydroponic tank 10 collects the dripping nutrient solution, and the nutrient solution collected in the hydroponic tank 10 enters the return pipe 21 through the outlet 20.

[0024] The working principle of this invention is as follows: During use, the inlet pipe 19 is connected to the inlet pump of the hydroponic system. The nutrient solution is input into the drip irrigation pipe 12 through the inlet pipe 19 and sprayed onto the roots of the plant through the drip irrigation hole 16, allowing the roots to absorb nutrients and oxygen. The nutrient solution drips from the roots into the hydroponic tank 10, then flows through the outlet 20 into the return pipe 21 and back to the storage tank of the hydroponic system. After filtration, nutrient replenishment, and oxygenation, the nutrient solution is then pumped back to the drip irrigation pipe 12, thus forming a cycle. This drip irrigation method allows the plant roots to remain partially submerged in the nutrient solution, increasing oxygen absorption through contact with air. Simultaneously, the direct spraying of the nutrient solution onto the plant roots improves the efficiency of nutrient absorption, while maintaining a low equipment cost. It combines the advantages of deep flow, shallow flow, aeroponics, and tidal methods, while overcoming the disadvantages of these hydroponic methods.
