Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of plant breeding equipment, in particular to a corn seed germination and cultivation device. Background Art

[0002] Before planting corn seeds, they need to go through the steps of drying, seed selection and germination breeding; germination breeding before corn sowing can greatly shorten the corn emergence time and achieve high sowing quality with uniform and strong seedlings.

[0003] Currently, corn seed germination and breeding methods include warm water immersion method and hotbed germination method. The hotbed germination method has a longer germination period, generally requiring 36-48 hours for the seeds to germinate, and its efficiency is low. The warm water immersion method generally places the corn seeds in 35-45°C warm water for germination, which can provide sufficient water and has a fast germination period, generally taking 4-10 hours.

[0004] However, the warm water germination method is limited by the differences in seed dryness, particle size, and other factors, resulting in poor germination uniformity. That is, some corn seeds are prone to anoxia and root rot after germination, or some larger and drier seeds are not soaked for enough time and have not germinated in time. At the same time, seed accumulation needs to be avoided during the batch germination process, as accumulation will cause the roots of the seeds to be entangled, which is not conducive to later sorting and seedling cultivation. In summary, it is necessary to obtain good germination quality and efficiency. In view of this, we propose a corn seed germination and cultivation equipment. Summary of the Invention

[0058] The following will be combined with the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments in this application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0059] See also Figure 1-13 The present invention describes the above technical solution in detail through the following embodiments:

[0060] A germination and cultivation equipment, suitable for corn seeds, includes a soaking and germination box 2 with a material conveyor belt 1 installed inside. The material conveyor belt 1 is used to carry corn seeds. In order to avoid the accumulation of seeds at the right end of the conveying turning point, this embodiment is provided with a reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The gap stop plate 23 of the structure shown further includes:

[0061] The processing part is used to make the soaking liquid in the soaking and germination box 2 flow and replenish the oxygen required for germination, including a water paddling base 3 installed horizontally in the soaking and germination box 2 and located above the material conveyor belt 1, such as Figure 1-Figure 4 The soaking and germination box 2 of this embodiment includes a water storage box 21 with a crossbeam frame 22 installed inside. The water-rowing base 3 is provided with a sliding hole 31 for slidingly installing on the crossbeam frame 22. The crossbeam frame 22 is provided with an electric cylinder 11 for driving the water-rowing base 3 to move back and forth along the horizontal plane. This process can horizontally push the soaking liquid to shake; at the same time, in order to match the moving action of the water-rowing base 3, a fixed top plate 24 is installed on the top of the water storage box 21 of this embodiment, and a slider 26 is slidably installed on the fixed top plate 24 through a slide rail 25. The motor 10 is installed on the slider 26, and a sliding groove 241 is provided on the fixed top plate 24 for moving the output shaft of the power supply 10; and in this embodiment, an output shaft rod 8 is provided with a transmission installed on the second transmission belt 7, and the output shaft rod 8 is coaxially mounted with a motor 10 as a driving source.

[0062] Specifically, the paddling base 3 is provided with an installation inner cavity 301 for installing the water stirring unit 5, and a U-shaped tube cavity 302 for inserting the aeration tube 4. The aeration tube 4 is provided with an aeration hole 41. The aeration tube 4 is externally connected to an aeration device that provides air or oxygen, which can replenish sufficient oxygen during use, thereby reducing the problem of root rot due to lack of oxygen, and at the same time is conducive to extending the soaking time, thereby improving the germination rate.

[0063] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the water stirring unit 5 is detachably mounted with the toggling and opening and closing unit 6 , and when the second transmission belt 7 rotates, the water stirring unit 5 can be driven to rotate.

[0064] like Figure 10 、 Figure 11 As shown in the structure, the water stirring unit 5 in this embodiment includes a connecting block 51 rotatably mounted on the mounting cavity 301 and provided with an axial hole 511, and a mounting shaft block 52 inserted into the axial hole 511; it is worth noting that in this embodiment, the mounting shaft block 52 includes a fixedly connected base block 521 and a vertical shaft rod 522; three support arms 53 are mounted on the connecting block 51, and a foldable arm 54 is mounted on the base block 521 through the support arms 53; in this embodiment, a spring 55 is sleeved on the vertical shaft rod 522, and the spring 55 is located between the connecting block 51 and the base block 521, and can keep the foldable arm 54 open when there is no other external force. A water-splitting plate 541 is provided on 54, which can obtain a stirring force during the rotation process; however, in order to avoid the problem of vortex aggregation formed during stirring by traditional stirring devices, this embodiment can drive the water-stirring unit 5 to open and close by tossing the opening and closing unit 6, which destroys the stable vortex structure, causing the flow state applied to the water flow or seeds to continuously change, and then manifests as the effect of the seeds being dispersed in the liquid. The water-splitting base 3 arranged for horizontal movement in this embodiment also improves the dispersion effect. In order to prevent the water-stirring unit 5 from contacting and hitting and damaging the bud body, a shield 9 is detachably installed at the installation cavity 301 and located outside the water-stirring unit 5.

[0065] like Figure 5-Figure 8 、 Figure 12 、 Figure 13 As shown in the structure, this embodiment is provided with two toggle opening and closing units 6, each of the toggle opening and closing units 6 specifically includes a first gear 61 and a second gear 62 connected coaxially, and a third gear 64 rotatably mounted on a fixed column 65 through a first transmission belt 63, and a second transmission belt 7 is mounted on the two first gears 61, and the first gear 61 is coaxially mounted on the connecting block 51, and can drive the water stirring unit 5 to rotate through the rotation of the first gear 61.

[0066] In addition, in this embodiment, the first gear 61 and the second gear 62 are provided with a first insertion hole 601 for inserting the vertical shaft 522, and the second gear 62 is provided with a pressure block 68 for being installed on the vertical shaft 522, and the pressure block 68 is provided with a mounting hole 681 corresponding to the vertical shaft 522; that is, the position of the vertical shaft 522 will affect whether the water stirring unit 5 is opened or closed. This embodiment is limited by the structure of the spring 55, and it is necessary to pull up the vertical shaft 522 and compress the spring 55 to realize the retraction action of the water stirring unit 5.

[0067] Specifically, in this embodiment, a pear-shaped cam block 66 is installed on the third gear 64. The cam block 66 is used to squeeze the pressure block 68 when rotating to drive the vertical shaft 522 to move upward, and the spring 55 has the function of resetting the vertical shaft 522; Figure 13 In the structure shown, the fixed column 65 is installed on the paddling base 3, and the third gear 64 is provided with a hollow sleeve hole 641 for being inserted into the fixed column 65. The fixed column 65 and the cam block 66 are respectively provided with a threaded hole 651 and a second socket 661. Bolts 67 are detachably installed in the threaded hole 651 and the second socket 661 to facilitate replacement of worn parts at this location.

[0068] In this embodiment, Figure 12 As shown in the positional relationship, an extrusion block 69 is provided between the pressure block 68 and the cam block 66, a threaded positioning rod 610 is installed on the fixed column 65, and the extrusion block 69 is slidably installed on the threaded positioning rod 610. The extrusion block 69 can maintain a consistent moving path when being squeezed by the cam block 66, and has a smoother movement than the cam block 66 directly squeezing the pressure block 68.

[0069] The working principle of the corn seed germination and cultivation equipment of this embodiment is as follows: the corn seeds to be germinated are put into the soaking and germination box 2 for soaking. During the soaking and germination process, the corn seeds are prevented from piling up. The electric cylinder 11 drives the paddling base 3 to move, so that the soaking liquid drives the seeds to flow and disperse. At this time, most of the seeds will be laid underneath under the action of gravity; the motor 10 drives the water stirring unit 5 to rotate, that is, stirring force is obtained, and a vortex is formed to promote the seeds to disperse again. In order to further obtain a high degree of dispersion, the cam block 66 rotates, squeezing the vertical shaft 522 to drive the water stirring unit 5 upward to retract, and then the soaking liquid obtains a continuously changing vortex vortex state, so that the seeds are fully dispersed in the liquid. In this process, oxygen is supplemented by aeration through the aeration pipe 4, which prolongs the soaking and germination time and reduces the problem of root rot of the buds under the same time.

[0070] It should be noted that if the embodiments of the present invention involve directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.), the directional indications are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components under a certain specific posture. If the specific posture changes, the directional indications will also change accordingly.

[0071] In addition, if the embodiments of the present invention include descriptions of "first," "second," etc., such descriptions are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, features specified as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of such features.

[0072] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the invention can be embodied in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as illustrative and non-restrictive, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description, and it is intended that all variations that come within the meaning and range of equivalents of the claims be embraced therein.
