Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of crop seed selection and germination, and more specifically, to a seed selection, seed drying and germination device and a method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Seeds are reproductive bodies unique to gymnosperms and angiosperms. They are formed by ovules through pollination and fertilization. They are generally composed of three parts: seed coat, embryo and endosperm. They play an important role in the continuation of species. The formation of seeds allows young sporophyte ovules to be protected by the mother and get sufficient nutrients like the fetus of mammals. Seeds also have various structures suitable for propagation or resistance to adverse conditions, creating good conditions for the continuation of plant races. In agricultural production, seeds are an important factor in stable production and high-quality development.

[0003] At present, it is found in actual applications that seed selection, seed drying and germination need to be processed using different devices. In the process of changing the device, steps such as collection, bagging, transportation, pouring and then spreading are required, which takes a lot of time and energy, making the seed processing efficiency extremely low;

[0004] To solve the above problems, this application proposes a method. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a seed selection, seed drying and germination device and method thereof. A motor is used to drive a rotating seat and a seed turning tooth to rotate. When drying the seeds, the seed turning tooth rotates to move the seeds on the sieve plate so that the seeds are evenly heated. At the same time, the sieve holes of shriveled, small and incomplete seeds fall down to complete the seed selection. After the seed drying is completed, the box cover is closed, and the liquid pump is started to draw the nutrient solution in the cavity into the atomizing nozzle and spray it on the seeds on the sieve plate to germinate. The seed selection, seed drying and germination device can realize the three steps of seed selection, seed drying and germination to solve the problems in the prior art.

[0006] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved by the following technical solutions:

[0007] A seed breeding, seed drying and germination device comprises a cultivation box with a receiving groove opened downward on the top surface, a box cover is arranged on the top of the cultivation box, a motor is arranged in the cultivation box, a sieve plate is fixedly arranged on the lower end of the inner wall of the cultivation box, a rotating seat is arranged above the sieve plate, a plurality of evenly distributed seed turning teeth are fixedly arranged on the bottom end of the rotating seat, atomizing nozzles are fixedly arranged on both sides of the seed turning teeth, a cavity is opened in the rotating seat, and a liquid pump is arranged in the cavity.

[0008] In the above technical scheme, when drying seeds, the seeds on the sieve plate are moved by the rotation of the seed turning teeth, so that the seeds can be evenly heated, and at the same time, the shriveled, small and incomplete seeds fall through the sieve holes, completing the seed selection. After the seed drying is completed, the nutrient solution in the cavity is sent to the atomizing nozzle through a liquid pump, and the nutrient solution is evenly sprayed on the seeds to germinate the seeds.

[0009] The liquid outlet end of the liquid pump is communicated with the liquid outlet pipe, and a connecting pipe is connected between the atomizing nozzle and the liquid outlet pipe.

[0010] In the above technical solution, the liquid pump draws the nutrient solution and sends it into the liquid outlet pipe from the liquid outlet end, and the nutrient solution enters the atomizing nozzle through the connecting pipe for spraying.

[0011] A fixing plate is fixedly provided on the upper end of the inner wall of the incubator, the motor is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the fixing plate, the transmission shaft of the motor passes through the fixing plate and is coaxially fixed with the driving gear, the driving gear is meshed and connected with the driven gear, the driven gear is penetrated by the rotating rod and is fixedly connected to the rotating rod, the rotating rod passes through the middle part of the fixing plate and is slidably connected to the fixing plate, and the bottom end of the rotating rod is fixedly connected to the top end of the rotating seat.

[0012] In the above technical solution, the motor is started, and the motor drives the active gear to rotate, thereby driving the driven gear and the rotating rod to rotate, and further driving the rotating seat, the atomizing nozzle and the seed turning teeth to rotate. The rotating seat drives the atomizing nozzle to rotate, so that the nutrient solution can be sprayed on all seeds when spraying the nutrient solution, and the seed turning teeth move the seeds on the sieve plate. In addition to making the seeds evenly heated during seed drying and making the dry, small and incomplete seeds fall from the sieve holes to complete the seed breeding, the seeds can also evenly receive the nutrient solution when the atomizing nozzle sprays the nutrient solution.

[0013] The top surface of the bottom plate of the incubator is gradually concave from the outside to the inside, and its shape is a trumpet shape with a low middle and high surroundings.

[0014] In the above technical solution, the shrunken, small and incomplete seeds falling from the sieve holes of the sieve plate and the subsequent nutrient solution will be collected in the middle part of the top surface of the bottom plate of the cultivation box.

[0015] The bottom end of the incubator is fixedly provided with a plurality of support legs perpendicular to the horizontal plane, and the support legs are evenly distributed. The middle part of the bottom plate of the incubator is penetrated by a waste pipe and fixedly connected to the waste pipe, and a collection box is arranged below the waste pipe.

[0016] In the above technical scheme, the shriveled, small and incomplete seeds and the subsequent nutrient solution collected in the middle part of the top surface of the bottom plate of the incubator will leave the incubator through the waste pipe and fall into the collection box for unified treatment. Since the time points for seed drying and germination are different, different collection boxes can be used to collect unqualified seeds and nutrient solution separately during seed drying and germination, which is convenient for subsequent treatment.

[0017] A valve is installed on the waste discharge pipe.

[0018] In the above technical solution, the opening and closing of the waste discharge pipe can be controlled by the valve.

[0019] A liquid infusion tube communicating with the cavity is fixedly arranged on the top of the rotating seat.

[0020] In the above technical solution, the nutrient solution is supplemented into the cavity in the rotating seat through the liquid replenishing tube to ensure sufficient supply of the nutrient solution.

[0021] A heat preservation lamp is fixedly arranged on the inner wall of the incubator, and the heat preservation lamp is arranged between the fixed plate and the rotating seat.

[0022] In the above technical solution, a heat-insulating lamp is used to provide a continuous and stable warm environment for the seeds, thereby ensuring that the seeds are not harmed by the cold and maintaining the temperature conditions required for their germination.

[0023] The box cover is penetrated by the transparent observation window and is fixedly connected to the transparent observation window.

[0024] In the above technical solution, after closing the box cover, the situation inside the incubator can be directly observed through the transparent observation window without opening the box cover, thereby preventing the environmental conditions inside the incubator from being damaged by opening the cover.

[0025] A seed selection, drying and germination method, using the above-mentioned seed selection, drying and germination device, comprises the following steps:

[0026] Step 1: Place the incubator in the sun, place the seeds on the sieve plate, and then dry the seeds. Turn on the motor and the valve, and the motor drives the active gear to rotate. The active gear drives the driven gear, the rotating rod and the rotating seat to rotate. The rotation of the rotating seat drives the seed turning teeth to move the seeds on the sieve plate, and the dry, small and incomplete seeds fall through the sieve holes. Then the seeds falling from the sieve plate leave the incubator through the waste pipe and fall into the collection box, completing the seed selection. When drying the seeds, the seed turning teeth move the seeds on the sieve plate to make the seeds evenly heated.

[0027] Step 2: Close the valve, turn on the liquid pump and the motor, the cavity is filled with nutrient solution, the nutrient solution in the cavity is pumped into the atomizing nozzle by the liquid pump and sprayed on the seeds on the sieve plate for germination, and the rotating seat drives the atomizing nozzle to rotate to spray the nutrient solution on the seeds for germination.

[0028] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0029] The invention can complete the three steps of seed selection, seed drying and germination, thereby solving the problem that different devices are required for seed selection, seed drying and germination. At the same time, since the seed selection, seed drying and germination steps can be completed by one device, the user does not need to perform the steps of collecting, bagging, transporting, pouring and spreading for many times, thereby reducing time and energy costs.

[0030] The present invention uses the seed turning teeth to move the seeds on the sieve plate, which not only makes the seeds evenly heated during seed drying and makes the shriveled, small and incomplete seeds fall from the sieve holes to complete seed breeding, but also makes the seeds evenly receive the nutrient solution when the atomizing nozzle sprays the nutrient solution.
