[0047] To more clearly illustrate the embodiments of the present invention, specific implementation methods will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the drawings described below are merely some embodiments of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, other drawings and other implementation methods can be obtained based on these drawings without any creative effort.
[0048] Example 1:
[0049] like Figure 1-11 As shown, the swing-type three-dimensional planting device of this embodiment includes two support frames 1 and planting troughs 2 supported by them, and also includes a drainage pipe 3 for draining excess water from the planting troughs 2. The support frames 1 are distributed sequentially at intervals along the length of the planting troughs 2, and the number of support frames is determined according to the length of the planting troughs, specifically based on the size of the greenhouse or glass house planting area.
[0050] The support frame 1 in this embodiment includes a fixed base 10, a support seat 11, a first swinging upright 12, a second swinging upright 13, a lifting adjustment component 14, and a U-shaped support 15.
[0051] The support base 11 is fixedly installed in the middle of the fixed base 10. The first swinging upright 12 and the second swinging upright 13 are located on both sides of the support base 11. The bottom ends of the first swinging upright 12 and the second swinging upright 13 are respectively hinged to the fixed base 10 through T-shaped connectors 16.
[0052] Specifically, the first swinging upright 12 and the second swinging upright 13 are square tube structures, and the vertical section of the T-shaped connector 16 is a square tube structure that is inserted and matched with the first swinging upright or the second swinging upright, so that the bottom of the first swinging upright or the second swinging upright can be inserted into the vertical section of the T-shaped connector 16 and fixed by bolts; in addition, the horizontal section of the T-shaped connector 16 is hinged to the fixed base 10. The specific hinge method can be referred to the prior art, which will not be elaborated here.
[0053] In this embodiment, the support frame 1 is equipped with a drive mechanism 4 for swinging the first swinging upright 12 and the second swinging upright 13. Specifically, the drive mechanism includes a drive motor 41, a pulley 42, and a transmission belt 43. The pulley 42 is rotatably mounted (e.g., mounted via bearings) on the support base 11. The transmission belt 43 is wound in a single layer around the groove of the pulley 42. The two ends of the transmission belt 43 are fixedly connected to the first swinging upright 12 and the second swinging upright 13, respectively. The drive motor 41 is used to drive the pulley 42 to rotate in the forward or reverse direction, and the first swinging upright 12 and the second swinging upright 13 swing in the same direction and synchronously to the left or right through the transmission belt 43.
[0054] The two ends of the transmission belt 43 are fixedly connected to the first swinging upright 12 and the second swinging upright 13 respectively by fasteners 5. Specifically, the fastener 5 includes a male fastener and a female fastener. The male fastener includes a base 510 and two elastic arms 511 located on the base 510 and spaced apart. The inner sides of the two elastic arms 511 are respectively provided with locking teeth 5110. The female fastener includes a mounting body 520 and fastening grooves 521 located on both sides of the mounting body 520. The mounting body 520 has a sleeve through hole 5201 for sleeve mounting on the first swing upright 12 or the second swing upright 13. The bottom of the fastening groove 521 has an insertion hole 5210 for inserting the end of the transmission belt 43. The two opposite groove walls of the fastening groove 521 have guide slopes 5211. When the elastic arm 511 of the male fastener is inserted into the fastening groove 521 of the female fastener, the two elastic arms are clamped together by the guide slopes of the fastening groove to fix the transmission belt 43 by locking teeth 5110.
[0055] In this embodiment, the pulleys 42 corresponding to the two support frames are connected by a transmission shaft 6 to achieve synchronous rotation; and the drive motor is shared by one.
[0056] In this embodiment, the top ends of the first swinging upright 12 and the second swinging upright 13 are respectively hinged to the planting trough 2. Specifically, lifting adjustment components 14 are respectively provided between the top ends of the first swinging upright 12 and the second swinging upright 13 and the planting trough 2 to facilitate adjustment of the height and inclination of the planting trough 2.
[0057] The lifting adjustment component 14 includes an upper connector 71 and a lower connector 72. The upper connector 71 includes an upper support section 710 and a lower threaded section 711, and the lower connector 72 includes an upper threaded section 720 and a lower hinged section 721. The upper support section 710 of the upper connector is sleeved with a U-shaped support 15, which supports the planting trough 2. The lower threaded section 711 of the upper connector is threadedly connected to the upper threaded section 720 of the lower connector. The lower hinged section 721 of the lower connector is hinged to the top of the first swinging upright 12 or the top of the second swinging upright 13. In this embodiment, the lifting adjustment is achieved through the threaded engagement of the lower threaded section 711 of the upper connector and the upper threaded section 720 of the lower connector. Among them, the lower thread section 711 of the upper connector has an internal thread structure, the upper thread section 720 of the lower connector has an external thread structure, and the outer periphery of the lower thread section 711 of the upper connector has a lifting adjustment handle 7110. The lifting adjustment handle 7110 has a ring structure, and the outer periphery of the lifting adjustment handle 7110 has a knurled structure to facilitate the rotation of the upper connector 71.
[0058] In addition, the lower connectors of the two lifting adjustment components in this embodiment are integrally formed, that is, the two lifting adjustment components are integrated into one. The lower hinge section 721 of the lower connector has a first limiting groove 7210 and a second limiting groove 7211. The top ends of the first swinging upright and the second swinging upright are respectively hinged in the first limiting groove 7210 and the second limiting groove 7211. The first limiting groove 7210 and the second limiting groove 7211 are respectively used to limit the swing stroke of the first swinging upright 12 and the second swinging upright 13, that is, the swing stroke is limited by the groove walls on both sides of the limiting groove.
[0059] In this embodiment, the lower two sides of the U-shaped support 15 have sleeve positions 150, which are cylindrical structures used to connect to the upper support section 710 of the upper connector of the lifting adjustment component at the top of the first and second swing uprights. The sleeve positions 150 abut against the lifting adjustment handle 7110. Additionally, the upper two sides of the U-shaped support 15 have elastic latches 151 for installing crossbars 8, meaning that a crossbar 8 is provided on each side of the planting trough 2. Furthermore, the upper two sides of the U-shaped support 15 also have limiting elbows W. The outer edges of the planting trough 2 on both sides are embedded in the limiting elbows W, and the limiting elbows W and the U-shaped groove of the U-shaped support 15 form a limiting space for the planting trough 2, preventing the planting trough 2 from tipping over.
[0060] In this embodiment, the planting trough 2 has open ends, each with an end cap 20 installed. The two sides of the end cap 20 are respectively fitted onto the crossbars 8 on both sides of the planting trough. Additionally, a mesh fabric 9 is installed inside the planting trough 2. The mesh fabric 9 is fixed to the crossbars 8 on both sides by multiple pressure clips L, maintaining a predetermined distance between the bottom of the mesh fabric and the bottom of the planting trough to form a drainage channel. A drainage pipe 3 connected to the drainage channel is installed on one side of the end cap 20 of the planting trough 2. The upper space enclosed by the mesh fabric 9 is used for planting strawberries.
[0061] In this embodiment, a drip irrigation pipe K is provided above the planting trough 2 for drip irrigation of the strawberries planted in the planting trough 2 to supplement the water and nutrients needed for strawberry growth. The drip irrigation pipe K is placed on multiple positioning frames D installed on the horizontal bars 8 on both sides (that is, the two sides of the positioning frame are fixed on the horizontal bars on both sides respectively) to realize the positioning of the drip irrigation pipe.
[0062] The above-mentioned fixed installation methods can adopt common existing technologies such as bolts, screws, and snap-fits, which will not be elaborated here.
[0063] After the swing-type three-dimensional planting device of this embodiment is arranged in several rows, as an example, taking four rows as an example, it can be used as follows: Figure 12 The four modified structures shown can save or increase planting space by more than 30%.
[0064] The swing-type three-dimensional planting device in this embodiment can not only grow strawberries, but also flowers, fruits, vegetables, etc., and is suitable for various usage scenarios. It can be used on balconies, outdoors, in gardens, courtyards and other places, adapting to different sites and planting different kinds of plants.
[0065] For example, a U-shaped support structure holds flowerpots or seedling pots, which are then moved inwards or outwards by a drive motor to adapt to different weather conditions and maintain plant growth. On rainy days, the drive motor activates the swinging column, causing the flowerpot or seedling pot to move smoothly inwards, effectively shielding it from rain and preventing root rot caused by excessive watering; even during prolonged rainy seasons, plants can maintain healthy growth. On sunny days, the drive motor activates the swinging column, moving the flowerpot or seedling pot outwards so that the plant can be fully exposed to sunlight and absorb sufficient light and energy. This flexible adjustment method ensures that plants receive optimal growth conditions under different light requirements, resulting in more vigorous growth. Therefore, it not only improves the efficiency and effectiveness of balcony planting but also brings a more convenient and enjoyable planting experience to plant enthusiasts.
[0066] Example 2:
[0067] The difference between the swing-type three-dimensional planting device in this embodiment and that in embodiment 1 is:
[0068] like Figure 13 As shown, a height adjustment pad Z is provided between the sleeve position of the U-shaped support and the upper support section of the upper connector of the lifting adjustment component. One or more height adjustment pads Z can be provided (such as three), depending on the actual application requirements.
[0069] As an example: Modern greenhouses are 90 or 100 meters long, and the drainage drop is usually 15-20cm. Therefore, in addition to adjusting the lifting adjustment parts (e.g., adjusting the stroke 0-50mm), 1-3 height adjustment pads are needed.

[0080] The difference between the swing-type three-dimensional planting device in this embodiment and that in embodiment 1 is:
[0081] like Figure 14 As shown, the U-shaped support and its related components are omitted. The tops of the first and second swinging uprights are directly hinged to the bottom of the planting trough or hinged through a connector (see the lower connector of the lifting adjustment component, i.e., the upper threaded section of the lower connector is replaced with a sleeve, which is directly sleeved with the protruding post at the bottom of the planting trough) to meet the actual needs of different applications.
[0082] As an example, when applied to flower planting, the planting trough can be replaced by multiple flower pots H connected in sequence;

[0087] Other structures can be found in Example 1.
[0088] Example 7:
[0089] The difference between the swing-type three-dimensional planting device in this embodiment and that in embodiment 1 is:
[0090] The design omits drip irrigation pipes, mesh fabric, and other structural elements, simplifying the structure and meeting the needs of different applications.
[0091] For the specific structure, please refer to Example 1.
[0092] Example 8:
[0093] The difference between the swing-type three-dimensional planting device in this embodiment and that in embodiment 1 is:

[0095] For the specific structure, please refer to Example 1.
[0096] It should be noted that the above embodiments can be freely combined as needed. The above description is only a detailed explanation of the preferred embodiments and principles of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods based on the ideas provided by the present invention, and these changes should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
