Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of plant factory internal environment regulation, and in particular to intelligent remote control equipment for the plant factory internal environment. Background Art

[0002] Large-scale greenhouses have internal and external forced ventilation functions to control the humidity inside the greenhouse and even solve problems such as condensation on the roof. However, when considering factors such as the temperature difference between the inside and outside, the limitations of the ventilation function are infinitely magnified due to the intolerance of crops under large temperature differences. In addition, the condensation on the roof affects the light intensity, which is also a significant problem. Therefore, in large-scale planting, or plant factory-style planting, it is necessary to seek an environmental intelligent control equipment that is less affected by temperature differences and can maintain light intensity. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an intelligent remote control device for the internal environment of a plant factory to solve the above technical problems.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0005] An intelligent remote control device for the internal environment of a plant factory comprises a plurality of curved flexible rods arranged along a straight line, and a landing frame located at the end of each flexible rod;

[0006] Several curved soft rods are in close contact with each other;

[0007] The end of each flexible rod has a rotating shaft that is rotatably matched with the adjacent landing bracket;

[0008] There is a second wheel at the reel;

[0009] It also includes a synchronization rod whose end extends into the corresponding landing frame and slides with the landing frame, wherein the synchronization rod has a first wheel that frictionally engages with the second wheel. When the synchronization rod slides with the landing frame, the first wheel twists the curved soft rod, flipping the curved surface originally on the inside of the soft rod to the outside.

[0010] Preferably, the first wheel contacts at most two adjacent second wheels simultaneously.

[0011] Preferably, a limit frame is provided to trap all the soft rods, and the limit frame is equipped with a slide for fixing the synchronization rod and a transmission belt rotating around the limit frame; wherein the synchronization rod and the limit frame are slidably engaged, and the slide is fixedly combined with the transmission belt, so that when the transmission belt rotates around the limit frame, the slide is driven by the transmission belt and drives the synchronization rod to slide with the landing frame.

[0012] Preferably, an air component connected to the soft rod is provided in the landing frame, and the air component reduces the pressure of the air in the corresponding soft rod when the second wheel and the first wheel are frictionally engaged, or pressurizes the air in the corresponding soft rod when the second wheel and the first wheel are frictionally engaged in the opposite direction.

[0013] Preferably, the flexible rod has a channel, which enables the air components located at two ends of the flexible rod to communicate.

[0014] Preferably, the footrest has a footrest slot, a support plate is provided in the footrest slot, and a bag is squeezed or decompressed by the support plate in the footrest slot;

[0015] The rotating shaft is also equipped with a screw extending toward the support plate and cooperating with the support plate thread. When the rotating shaft and the landing frame rotate and cooperate, the screw draws air from the soft rod through the bag, or, when the rotating shaft and the landing frame rotate in the opposite direction, the support plate pushes the bag and increases pressure into the soft rod through the bag.

[0016] Preferably, the support plate is slidably engaged with the footrest in a height direction within the footrest slot.

[0017] Preferably, the bag is equipped with a spring for supporting the bag to restore its shape.

[0018] Preferably, the combination of the screw and the rotating shaft has a docking channel for connecting the inner channel of the soft rod with the capsule. In addition, the tail of the screw is connected to the capsule by a hose.

[0019] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0020] 1. In the present invention, when the humidity in the shed increases and water condenses on the roof, the humidity sensor can be used to detect the value and transmit the value to the terminal, and then the corresponding driving component drives the synchronization rod. When the synchronization rod slides with the first landing frame and the second landing frame, the curved soft rod is twisted, and the curved surface originally located on the inside of the soft rod is flipped to the outside, and then the condensed water is quickly dried by combining multiple drying factors such as wind and temperature in the external environment.

[0021] 2. In the present invention, the screw rod cooperates with the support plate thread, and the support plate can pull the bag, thereby exhausting the gas in the corresponding soft rod, reducing the contact force between the soft rod and the adjacent soft rod, or even making the soft rod not contact the adjacent soft rod, thereby facilitating the flipping of the soft rod.

[0022] 3. In the present invention, when the screw and the support plate are threaded in opposite directions, the support plate will squeeze the bag and press the air in the bag into the soft rod, making the soft rod thicker. Then, under the constraint of the limit rod, it will be in closer contact with the adjacent soft rod, thereby obtaining a good sealing effect. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easier to understand, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments and drawings. However, the following embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not exhaustive. Based on the embodiments in the implementation manner, other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making any creative work are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] Specific embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] Example 1

[0031] In this embodiment, an intelligent remote control device for the plant factory environment is proposed. Figure 1 The control device includes a plurality of curved soft rods 2 along a straight array, and a first landing bracket 1 and a second landing bracket 8 located at the end side of each soft rod 2.

[0032] See also Figure 1 , a plurality of curved soft rods 2 are in close contact with each other. In addition, the end of each soft rod 2 has a rotating shaft 12 that is rotatably matched with the first landing bracket 1 and the second landing bracket 8.

[0033] See also Figure 1 In the enlarged view, the rotating shaft 12 has a second wheel 16 that coincides with the axis of the rotating shaft 12 .

[0034] There is also a synchronization rod 7 whose end portion extends into the first landing frame 1 and the second landing frame 8 and is slidably engaged with the first landing frame 1 and the second landing frame 8.

[0035] To further illustrate, the synchronization rod 7 is equipped with a first wheel 15 that frictionally cooperates with the second wheel 16. When the synchronization rod 7 slides with the first landing frame 1 and the second landing frame 8, the first wheel 15 twists the curved soft rod 2, flipping the curved surface of the soft rod 2 originally located on the inside to the outside.

[0036] In this embodiment, a number of tightly contacted curved soft rods 2 constitute the shed of the plant factory. Accordingly, when the humidity in the shed increases and water condenses on the roof, the humidity sensor can be combined to detect the value and transmit the value to the terminal, and then the corresponding driving component can be used to drive the synchronization rod 7, so that when the synchronization rod 7 slides with the first landing frame 1 and the second landing frame 8, the curved soft rod 2 is twisted, and the curved surface of the soft rod 2 originally located on the inside is flipped to the outside.

[0037] Example 2

[0038] In this embodiment, an intelligent remote control device for the plant factory environment is proposed. Figures 1-4 The control device includes a plurality of curved soft rods 2 along a straight array, and a first landing bracket 1 and a second landing bracket 8 located at the end side of each soft rod 2.

[0039] See also Figure 1 , a plurality of curved soft rods 2 are in close contact with each other, and the end of each soft rod 2 has a rotating shaft 12 that is rotatably matched with the first landing bracket 1 and the second landing bracket 8.

[0040] See also Figure 1 In the enlarged view, the rotating shaft 12 has a second wheel 16 that coincides with the axis of the rotating shaft 12 .

[0041] There is also a synchronization rod 7 whose end portion extends into the first landing frame 1 and the second landing frame 8 and is slidably engaged with the first landing frame 1 and the second landing frame 8.

[0042] Further explanation: the end of the synchronization rod 7 is provided with a synchronization rod extension end 14. In addition, the tops of the first landing frame 1 and the second landing frame 8 are also provided with a concave extension groove 13, thereby making the synchronization rod 7 slideably matched with the first landing frame 1 and the second landing frame 8.

[0043] The extending end 14 of the synchronization rod is equipped with a first wheel 15 which frictionally cooperates with the second wheel 16. When the synchronization rod 7 slides with the first landing frame 1 and the second landing frame 8, the first wheel 15 twists the curved soft rod 2, flipping the curved surface of the soft rod 2 originally located on the inside to the outside.

[0044] Different from the embodiment 1, in this embodiment, a limit frame 5 is provided to trap all the soft rods 2, such as Figure 3 As shown, a plurality of soft rod grooves 18 for trapping and restraining the soft rod 2 are arrayed on the limit frame 5 . In addition, the limit frame 5 is equipped with a slide 3 for fixing the synchronization rod 7 and a transmission belt 6 rotating around the limit frame 5 .

[0045] The synchronous rod 7 is slidably matched with the limit frame 5, and the slide 3 is fixedly combined with the transmission belt 6 (see Figure 3 A transmission belt positioning groove 19 is provided at the slide 3, and the transmission belt positioning groove is used to fix the transmission belt 6 that penetrates into the slide 3). In this way, when the transmission belt 6 rotates around the limit frame 5, the slide 3 can be driven by the transmission belt 6 to drive the synchronization rod 7 to slide with the landing frame.

[0046] In this embodiment, an air component connected to the soft rod 2 is also provided in the first landing frame 1 and the second landing frame 8 (the soft rod 2 has a channel, which connects the air components located at the two ends of the soft rod 2).

[0047] Specifically, when the second wheel 16 and the first wheel 15 are frictionally engaged, the air component reduces the pressure of the air in the corresponding soft rod 2, or when the second wheel 16 and the first wheel 15 are frictionally engaged in the opposite direction, the air in the corresponding soft rod 2 is pressurized.

[0048] In order to match the gas assembly, the first landing frame 1 and the second landing frame 8 are also provided with Figure 4 The footrest shown is slotted 9.

[0049] As for the air component, it includes a support plate 10 located in the footrest slot 9, and a bag 17 that is squeezed or decompressed by the support plate 10 in the footrest slot 9. In addition, in order to cooperate with the support plate 10, the rotating shaft 12 is also equipped with a screw 11 extending toward the support plate 10 and threadedly engaged with the support plate 10.

[0050] To further explain, when the screw 11 rotates with the shaft 12 and the footrest, the bag 17 sucks the air in the soft rod 2, or, when the shaft 12 and the footrest rotate in the opposite direction, the support plate 10 pushes the bag 17, and the pressure is increased in the soft rod 2 through the bag 17.

[0051] In this embodiment, the following contents need to be explained:

[0052] ① The support plate 10 is limited to sliding cooperation with the landing frame in the height direction within the landing frame slot 9.

[0053] ② The bag 17 is equipped with a spring for supporting the bag 17 to restore its shape.

[0054] ③ The combination of the screw 11 and the rotating shaft 12 has a docking channel for connecting the inner channel of the soft rod 2 with the bag 17. In addition, the tail of the screw 11 is connected to the bag 17 by a hose.

[0055] The core of this embodiment lies in sealing. That is, although the soft rods 2 are in close contact with each other in Example 1, the strength of the close contact is still slightly insufficient to provide the required sealing performance. Therefore, it is necessary to introduce an air component. The air component can both intake air into the soft rods 2 and exhaust air from the soft rods 2.

[0056] Specifically, when the curved surface of the soft rod 2 originally located on the inside needs to be flipped to the outside, the screw 11 in this embodiment can be threadedly matched with the support plate 10, and the support plate 10 can pull the soft rod 2 to rotate. Figure 4 The bag 17 shown in the figure further pumps out the gas in the corresponding soft rod 2, reducing the contact force between the soft rod 2 and the adjacent soft rod 2, or even making the soft rod 2 not contact the adjacent soft rod 2, thereby facilitating the flipping of the soft rod 2.

[0057] On the contrary, when the screw 11 and the support plate 10 are threaded in the opposite direction, the support plate 10 will squeeze the bag 17 and press the air in the bag 17 into the soft rod 2, making the soft rod 2 thicker, and then under the constraint of the limiting rod 5, it will be in closer contact with the adjacent soft rod 2, thereby obtaining a good sealing effect.

[0058] In the present invention, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, a first feature being "above" or "below" a second feature may include the first and second features being in direct contact, or may include the first and second features being in contact not directly but through another feature between them. Furthermore, a first feature being "above," "above," and "above" a second feature may include the first feature being directly above or obliquely above the second feature, or may simply mean that the first feature is higher in level than the second feature. A first feature being "below," "below," and "below" a second feature may include the first feature being directly below or obliquely below the second feature, or may simply mean that the first feature is lower in level than the second feature.

[0059] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are merely preferred examples of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Various changes and improvements may be made to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Such changes and improvements fall within the scope of the present invention. The scope of protection claimed in the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
