In the description of the present application, "a plurality" means two or more unless otherwise specifically defined.
[0021] In order to further illustrate the principle and structure of the present invention, the preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0022] As Figures 1 - 3As shown in the figure, a tomato planting device with a climbing structure provided by the present invention includes a first support frame 1, a second support frame 11, a top plate 2, a planting frame 3 and a pedal 4. The first support frame 1 and the second support frame 11 are rigid frame structures, which are parallel and relatively arranged at a certain distance, forming the main support structure of the device. The top plate 2 is fixedly connected to the upper parts of the two support frames by welding or high-strength bolts, forming a stable top platform. At the bottom of the top plate 2, a planting frame 3 is fixedly arranged, and the planting frame 3 is used for planting tomatoes. In addition, at the lower parts of the first support frame 1 and the second support frame 11, pedals 4 are respectively arranged. The pedals 4 facilitate people to pick tomatoes at high places. The picking personnel can climb with the help of the pedals 4 and easily reach the tomatoes at different heights on the planting frame 3, solving the problem of inconvenient picking of tomatoes at high places in traditional planting devices and greatly improving the picking efficiency. At the same time, this structural design makes the picking process safer and more convenient, reducing the risk brought by difficult climbing and making the tomato picking work easier and more efficient.
[0023] Furthermore, the pedal 4 is installed at the lower parts of the first support frame 1 and the second support frame 11 in a detachable manner. When the pedal 4 is not needed, it can be removed to avoid obstruction, or when the pedal 4 is damaged, it can be replaced. When it is necessary to climb to pick tomatoes at high places, it can be quickly installed, greatly improving the convenience of use and the scene adaptability of the device.
[0024] In the tomato planting device with a climbing structure, the pedal 4 is detachably connected to the first support frame 1 and the second support frame 11 through a first assembly unit. Specifically, a first assembly unit is fixedly arranged on the pedal 4, and a second assembly unit is correspondingly arranged at the lower parts of the first support frame 1 and the second support frame 11. The second assembly units are arranged at intervals in the vertical direction of the support frame, forming multiple optional connection points. Through the cooperation of the first assembly unit and the second assembly unit at any height, the user can flexibly adjust the installation height of the pedal 4 on the support frame according to actual needs, so as to adapt to the picking requirements of tomato plants at different growth stages.
[0025] Furthermore, in the connection structure between the pedal 4 and the support frame, the first assembly unit adopts a rectangular insertion rod (not shown in the figure) fixed to the end of the pedal 4, and the second assembly unit is an array of rectangular holes 42 opened at the lower parts of the first support frame 1 and the second support frame 11. The cross-sectional size of the rectangular insertion rod is exactly matched with that of the rectangular hole 42, and the pedal 4 is quickly positioned and installed through the plugging method. Multiple rectangular holes 42 are evenly arranged along the height direction of the support frame, forming stepped adjustment points. The user can insert the rectangular insertion rod of the pedal 4 into the rectangular hole 42 at the corresponding height according to the plant height or operation requirements, so as to realize the precise adjustment of the position of the pedal 4. This plugging structure has both guiding and limiting functions, effectively preventing the pedal 4 from shifting or loosening horizontally during use.
[0026] The first assembly unit and the second assembly unit are not limited to the above-mentioned rectangular insertion rods and rectangular holes 42. The first assembly unit and the second assembly unit can also be other structures. The first assembly unit is a bolt through-hole (not shown in the figure) opened on the pedal 4, and the second assembly unit is an array of threaded holes (not shown in the figure) provided at the lower parts of the first support frame 1 and the second support frame 11. A wing nut (not shown in the figure) passes through the bolt through-hole of the pedal 4 and is screwed into the threaded hole to achieve the detachable fixation of the pedal 4. The threaded holes are distributed at intervals along the height direction of the support frame. Users can select the hole positions with appropriate heights according to their needs, and quickly complete the installation or position adjustment of the pedal 4 through the screwing operation of the wing nut. The wide wing-shaped head design of the wing nut facilitates manual operation, and the tightening or disassembly can be completed without the aid of tools, significantly improving the adjustment efficiency.
[0027] Furthermore, there are multiple planting racks 3 provided at the bottom of the top plate 2. The multiple planting racks 3 are detachably installed at the bottom of the top plate 2. This design allows users to flexibly increase or decrease the number of planting racks 3 according to the planting density or the growth requirements of the plants, and at the same time facilitates disassembly, maintenance or replacement of components.
[0028] Furthermore, a first mounting plate 21 and a second mounting plate 22 are symmetrically provided at the bottom of the top plate 2. Both the first and second mounting plates 22 are strip-shaped. Longitudinal grooves 23 for mounting the first and second mounting plates 22 are opened at the bottom of the top plate 2. When the first and second mounting plates 22 are installed, they enter the grooves 23 of the bottom plate and are detachably connected to the bottom of the top plate 2. A plurality of planting racks 3 are fixedly provided on the lower surface of the mounting plate. The planting racks 3 are detachably arranged at the bottom of the top plate 2 through the first and second mounting plates 22. Users can flexibly increase or decrease the number of planting racks 3 according to the actual planting needs. The strip-shaped design of the mounting plate enhances the overall load-bearing stability, and its detachable feature facilitates the adjustment of the layout of the planting racks 3 or maintenance operations. Through modular combination, the device can meet the needs of different planting densities and plant growth stages, and at the same time simplifies the installation and replacement process of the planting racks 3, significantly improving the practicality and expandability of the device.
[0029] Furthermore, it further includes a locking mechanism, which is integrated in the inner cavity of the top plate 2 and is used to firmly lock the first mounting plate 21 and the second mounting plate 22 to the bottom of the top plate 2. Specifically, slots 6 are provided on the surfaces of the first and second mounting plates 22. The cavity of the top plate 2 communicates with the slots 6 of the mounting plates mentioned above. A bidirectional lead screw 5 is horizontally installed in the cavity of the top plate 2, and its vertical projection range overlaps with the vertical projection of the mounting plates, ensuring that the first and second mounting plates 22 are within the moving range of the first and second nuts described below. The two sides of the bidirectional lead screw 5 are respectively screwed with a first nut 51 and a second nut. A first latch 52 adapted to the slot 6 of the first mounting plate 21 is fixed on the first nut 51, and a second latch adapted to the slot 6 of the second mounting plate 22 is provided on the second nut. By driving the bidirectional lead screw 5 to rotate, the two nuts can move synchronously in opposite directions, driving the latches to engage with or disengage from the slots 6 of the mounting plates, thereby realizing the quick locking or unlocking of the mounting plates.
[0030] Furthermore, the driving structure includes a bevel gear set located in the cavity of the top plate 2. One end of the bidirectional lead screw 5 is fixed with a first bevel gear 53, and a second bevel gear 54 meshing with it is vertically arranged and extends to the top of the top plate 2 through a rotating shaft. A recessed receiving groove 7 is provided on the surface of the top plate 2. The driving end of the second bevel gear 54 is located in the groove and is configured with a hexagonal screw head 71. The user can drive the linkage of the bevel gear set by rotating the hexagonal screw head 71, thereby controlling the forward and reverse rotation of the bidirectional lead screw 5 and completing the clamping or release of the mounting plates by the latches. This design does not require complex tools and can be operated only with a hexagonal wrench, which not only ensures the reliability of locking but also simplifies the adjustment process of the mounting plates, meeting the requirements of scenarios where the planting rack 3 needs to be frequently replaced.
[0031] Furthermore, internal threads are provided in the receiving groove 7, and it further includes a tightening block 72. External threads are provided on the tightening block 72. The tightening block 72 is threadedly connected to the receiving groove 7. When the tightening block 72 is screwed into the receiving groove 7, the tightening block 72 will move towards the direction close to the hexagonal screw head 71 until it contacts the hexagonal screw head 71 and generates a certain squeezing force on it, thereby avoiding the rotation of the hexagonal screw head 71 and further improving the stability after the installation of the planting rack 3.
[0032] The bidirectional linkage mechanism of the locking mechanism significantly improves the stability and efficiency of the device. The rigid cooperation between the latches and the slots 6 can bear the vertical loads of the planting rack 3 and the plants, preventing the displacement of the mounting plates due to external forces. At the same time, the precise cooperation between the lead screw and the nuts ensures the consistency of the movement of the latches, preventing unilateral jamming problems. This structure takes into account both strength and flexibility, can not only meet the load-bearing requirements of large-scale planting but also adapt to the modular expansion of different planting densities, providing an efficient and durable solution for tomato planting.
[0033] Furthermore, plant growth lights 8 are installed on the sides of the first and second support frames 11 close to the planting frame 3. The plant growth lights 8 can provide illumination at night, thereby increasing the growth rate of tomatoes.
[0034] Furthermore, reinforcement members 9 inserted into the soil are provided on the first and second support frames 11 to reinforce the planting device and prevent it from moving.
[0035] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention, and do not impose any limitation on the technical scope of the present invention. Therefore, any minor modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
