[0022] Reference Figure 1 A specific embodiment of the present invention includes six incubators 1, which are arranged in two rows up and down, and are respectively provided with a snap-on male connector 2 and a snap-on female connector 3 on both sides of the incubator 1, and ventilation holes 4 are provided on both sides of the incubator 1. A culture soil layer 5 is placed at the bottom of the inner side of the incubator 1, and a water supply pipe 6 is buried in the culture soil layer 5. Both ends of the water supply pipe 6 are connected to the side wall of the incubator 1, and both ends of the water supply pipe 6 are respectively provided with a quick-plug male connector 7 and a quick-plug female connector 8. A threaded hole 9 is provided at the bottom of the outer side of the incubator 1, and an elastic plug rod 10 that is plugged and matched with the threaded hole 9 is detachably installed on the top of the outer side of the incubator 1. An openable transparent cover plate 11 is respectively provided on the front and back of the incubator 1. When two incubators 1 are connected together by the snap-on male connector 2 and the snap-on female connector 3, the ventilation holes 4 of the two incubators 1 are connected to each other, and the water supply pipes 6 of the two incubators 1 are connected together by the corresponding quick-plug male connector 7 and the quick-plug female connector 8. The ventilation holes 4 on one side of each row of incubators 1 are connected to an air supply device 28, which has the function of adjusting air humidity and temperature. In order to facilitate the movement of the incubator 1, a universal wheel 27 is installed on the threaded hole 9 at the bottom. Of course, the incubator 1 of the present invention can be flexibly changed in number and number of rows and columns as needed, and the universal wheel 27 can also be chosen not to be installed. The elastic plug 10 is used to improve the stability of the installation of the incubator 1 between different layers. When the incubator 1 needs to be moved frequently, the elastic plug 10 can also be removed and not used.

[0023] The method of using the above-mentioned display cabinet is as follows: open the transparent cover 11, plant the plant seedlings in the culture soil layer 5, and then arrange the culture boxes 1 planted with the plant seedlings in sequence through the snap-fit ​​male head 2 and the snap-fit ​​female head 3. When the site space is insufficient, the culture boxes 1 are arranged in multiple layers, and the culture boxes 1 in adjacent layers are plugged and fixed through the elastic plug rods 10 and the threaded holes 9; the air flow with adjusted temperature and humidity is transported into the culture box 1 through the ventilation holes 4, and water is regularly added to the culture soil layer 5 through the water supply pipe 6.

[0024] In order to facilitate the installation and use of the incubator 1, we improve the structure of the incubator 1, referring to Figure 2 and 5 -6. The incubator 1 is installed in a vertical plug-in manner. The female snap-in connector 3 is two symmetrical slots vertically arranged on the edge of the incubator 1. The male snap-in connector 2 is two symmetrical flanges plugged with the female snap-in connector 3. The male snap-in connector 2 is inserted into the female snap-in connector 3 from top to bottom to achieve connection between adjacent incubators.

[0025] In order to match the installation method of the incubator 1, we have modified the joint of the water supply pipe 6. The quick-plug female connector 8 includes arc-shaped slots 20 arranged on both sides, and the spacing between the two arc-shaped slots 20 gradually decreases from top to bottom. A sealing groove 21 is arranged between the two arc-shaped slots 20. The top and bottom of the sealing groove 21 are symmetrical semicircular, and the part between the top and bottom of the sealing groove 21 is a straight line in the vertical direction. A first limiting plate 22 is fixed to the bottom of the sealing groove 21. The interface (not shown in the figure) between the quick-plug female connector 8 and the water supply pipe 6 is located on the inner side of the sealing groove 21. The quick-plug male connector 7 includes two elastic inserting strips 23 which are plugged into and matched with the arc-shaped slots 20, and an elastic sealing ring 24 is arranged between the two elastic inserting strips 23. The elastic sealing ring 24 is fixedly connected to the quick-plug male connector 7 through four fixed points, and the positions of the four fixed points correspond to the connection points of the semicircular part and the straight part of the sealing groove 21 respectively. The initial diameter of the elastic sealing ring is smaller than the top spacing of the two arc-shaped slots 20 and larger than the bottom spacing of the two arc-shaped slots 20. A second limiting plate 25 is fixed on the upper part of the elastic sealing ring 24, and the interface (not shown in the figure) between the quick-plug male connector 7 and the water supply pipe 6 is located on the inner side of the elastic sealing ring 24. After the elastic insert 23 is inserted into the arc-shaped slot 20, as the quick-plug male connector 7 moves downward, the two sides of the elastic sealing ring 24 are squeezed toward the middle by the arc-shaped slot 20 to deform, and the deformed elastic sealing ring 24 is inserted into the sealing groove 21, and the first limiting plate 22 and the second limiting plate 25 apply limiting squeezing force from the upper and lower directions, thereby ensuring that the elastic sealing ring 24 and the sealing groove 21 maintain a good and stable seal. The quick plug designed by us can cooperate with the plug-in installation method of the incubator 1 to realize the automatic connection of the water supply pipe 6 while the incubator 1 is installed, which is convenient for use.

[0026] The water supply pipe 6 designed by us can realize uniform and continuous water supply to the incubators 1 at different positions. Figure 3-4 The water supply pipe 6 includes hard pipe heads 12 at both ends, a delivery pipe 13 is connected between the two hard pipe heads 12, a plurality of water permeable holes 14 are arranged on the side wall of the delivery pipe 13, a sand blocking net 15 is arranged outside the water permeable hole 14, a flexible rubber sheet 16 is arranged inside the water permeable hole 14, a water permeable gap 17 is arranged on the surface of the flexible rubber sheet 16, a hard support sheet 18 is arranged between the water permeable hole 14 and the flexible rubber sheet 16, and a water absorbent cotton core 19 is filled inside the delivery pipe 13. When supplying water, the water flows out of the water absorbent cotton core 19 by relying on the water supply pressure, and the flexible rubber sheet 16 is pressed and fitted on the hard support sheet 18, thereby reducing the water permeable flow rate of the water permeable gap 17, realizing uniform water supply to each incubator 1, and there will be no problem that the water flow is concentrated in the incubator 1 at the front end and the water supply to the incubator 1 at the rear end is small. After the periodic water supply ends, the absorbent cotton core 19 will retain some moisture, and the flexible rubber sheet 16 will separate from the hard supporting sheet 18 after losing the squeeze of water pressure, and the water-permeable gap 17 will increase, so that the moisture retained by the absorbent cotton core 19 can slowly penetrate outward through the water-permeable gap 17, thereby achieving continuous humidification of the culture soil layer 5.

[0027] Reference Figure 7 The side wall of the elastic plug rod 10 is evenly provided with a plurality of annular spring pieces 26, which are engaged with the thread groove on the inner wall of the threaded hole 9. The annular spring piece 26 is provided with a plurality of notches 29, and an extension piece 30 facing the inner side of the notch 29 is provided on both sides of the notch 29. Of the two extension pieces 30 on the same notch 29, any one extension piece 30 is inclined upward, and the other extension piece 30 is inclined downward. When the annular spring piece 26 is engaged with the thread groove, the extension piece 30 can be elastically squeezed and engaged at different positions of the thread groove, thereby improving the insertion stability of the elastic plug rod 10 and the threaded hole 9.
