[0034] References to "one embodiment" or "some embodiments" in this specification mean that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with that embodiment is included in one or more embodiments of the present invention. Thus, phrases such as "in one embodiment," "in some embodiments," "in other embodiments," and "in yet other embodiments" appearing in various places in this specification do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, but rather mean "one or more, but not all, embodiments," unless otherwise specifically emphasized. The terms "including," "comprising," "having," and variations thereof mean "including but not limited to," unless otherwise specifically emphasized.
[0035] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 1-Figure 5 A double-helix tower vegetable and fruit seedling raising system comprises two sets of first support frames 1, second support frames 2 and a plurality of seedling raising trays 13. A first support rail 3 and a second support rail 4 are fixedly connected between the plurality of first support frames 1 and the second support frames 2. The first support rail 3 and the second support rail 4 cooperate to form a fixed route to guide the seedling raising trays 13.
[0036] The first support rail 3 and the second support rail 4 are both closed-loop arrangements. The first support rail 3 and the second support rail 4 form two spiral towers between the two groups of first support frames 1. The first support rail 3 and the second support rail 4 form a horizontal shape between the second support frames 2 for loading and unloading. The first support rail 3 and the second support rail 4 cooperate to guide the seedling tray 13, thereby reducing the space occupied during seedling cultivation.
[0037] A connecting mechanism is provided in the second support rail 4 for connecting a plurality of seedling trays 13;
[0038] The driving mechanism 5 is arranged on the surface of the second support frame 2 and is used to drive the seedling tray 13 to move.
[0039] In the present invention, the bottom of the seedling tray 13 is rotatably connected to two pairs of symmetrically arranged rollers 14, and the two pairs of rollers 14 respectively contact the first support rail 3 and the second support rail 4. The rollers 14 can support the seedling tray 13 and facilitate the rolling of the seedling tray 13 on the first support rail 3 and the second support rail 4.
[0040] In particular, the connecting mechanism includes a avoidance opening 8 arranged at the top of the second support rail 4 and a steel wire rope 9 located in the second support rail 4. The circumference of the steel wire rope 9 is fixedly connected with a plurality of evenly distributed fixed balls 10, and the tops of the fixed balls 10 are fixedly connected with mounting posts 12. The setting of the fixed balls 10 can also avoid friction between the steel wire rope 9 and the second support rail 4. The mounting posts 12 pass through the avoidance opening 8, and the seedling tray 13 is fixed on the tops of several of the mounting posts 12. When the steel wire rope 9 moves in the second support rail 4, it can drive the seedling tray 13 to move in a cycle.
[0041] It should be noted that both sides and the bottom of the fixed ball 10 are rotatably connected with balls 11, which further facilitate the displacement of the wire rope 9 in the second support rail 4 and reduce friction.
[0042] In the present invention, the driving mechanism 5 includes a driving disk 16 rotating on the top of one of the second support frames 2, and a plurality of driving blocks 17 are fixedly connected to the circumference of the driving disk 16. A driving groove 18 is provided on one side of the driving block 17. The driving block 17 cooperates with the driving groove 18 to push the fixed ball 10 to move the wire rope 9. It also includes a reducer 15, which is fixed to the bottom of one of the second support frames 2. One end of the output shaft of the reducer 15 is fixed to the driving disk 16. When the reducer 15 is started, the reducer 15 drives the driving disk 16 to rotate. The driving disk 16 uses the driving blocks 17 and driving grooves 18 on its circumference to push the fixed ball 10. The fixed ball 10 drives the wire rope 9 to move in the second support rail 4, thereby driving the seedling tray 13 to move, forming a cyclic displacement, which is convenient for use.
[0043] In another embodiment, referring to Figure 1 -Figure 1 shows an improved double-helix tower vegetable and fruit seedling system based on Example 1.
[0044] In the present invention, main pipes 34 for water supply are provided on both sides of the second support frame 2, and multiple branch pipes 35 are fixedly connected to one side of the main pipe 34. Atomizing nozzles are fixedly installed at the bottom of the branch pipes 35, and a solenoid valve is installed on one side of the branch pipes 35 to control the water output of the branch pipes 35. Multiple branch pipes 35 are distributed at different positions to water different seedling trays 13. Through the atomizing nozzles, the seedling trays 13 can be irrigated during the movement and growth process, which is convenient for growth.
[0045] In particular, a top plate 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the first support frame 1, and two through mounting openings are provided on the top of the top plate 6, and a mounting frame 20 is fixedly connected to the mounting opening. The surface of the mounting frame 20 is rotatably connected to a through rotating shaft 21, and a group of fan blades 22 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating shaft 21. The two groups of fan blades 22 are respectively located above the two spirals. A motor 19 is fixedly connected to the top of the top plate 6, and one end of the output shaft of the motor 19 is connected to the two rotating shafts 21 through a synchronous wheel and synchronous belt transmission. When the motor 19 is started, the motor 19 drives the rotating shaft 21 to rotate through the synchronous wheel and synchronous belt, and then drives the fan blades 22 to rotate, so that the interior of the spiral tower is ventilated to facilitate the growth of seedlings.
[0046] It should be noted that a protective cover 7 is fixedly connected to the top of the top plate 6, and the protective cover 7 protects the internal components.
[0047] In the present invention, an insect catching mechanism 24 is provided at the bottom of the top plate 6. The insect catching mechanism 24 includes a mounting seat 25, which is fixed to the bottom of the top plate 6. A worm 26 is rotatably connected to the top of the mounting seat 25. The worm 26 is fixed to one end of the output shaft of the motor 19. A driving shaft 27 is rotatably connected between the two sides of the mounting seat 25. A worm gear 28 is fixedly connected to the circumference of the driving shaft 27. The worm gear 28 is engaged with the worm 26. At least three blades 29 are fixedly connected to both ends of the driving shaft 27. One side of the blade 29 is bonded with an insect attractant 36 (which can be a sex attractant). A fixing sleeve 30 is fixedly connected to both sides of the mounting seat 25. The blades 29 on both sides are respectively located at two Inside the fixed sleeve 30, a notch 31 is provided at the top of the fixed sleeve 30, and a guide tube 32 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed sleeve 30. A collecting box 33 is provided at the bottom of the guide tube 32. When the motor 19 is started, the worm 26 is also driven to rotate, and the worm 26 drives the worm gear 28 and the drive shaft 27 to rotate. The drive shaft 27 drives the blades 29 to rotate, and the insect attractant 36 on the blades 29 attracts flying insects. When the flying insects follow the blades 29 into the guide tube 32, due to the smaller space, some flying insects will fall into the collecting box 33 and then be drowned by the water therein, reducing flying insects and facilitating the growth of seedlings. The collecting box 33 is fixed to the guide tube 32 by a lock, and water is provided in the collecting box 33.
[0048] In particular, a light strip 23 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the top plate 6, and the light strip 23 can provide supplementary light to meet the growth needs of the seedlings.
[0049] However, as is well known to those skilled in the art, the working principles and wiring methods of the reducer 15, motor 19, and light strip 23 are all conventional means or common knowledge, and will not be elaborated here. Those skilled in the art can make any selections according to their needs or convenience.
[0050] The working principle and use process of this technical solution are as follows: when in use, the reducer 15 is started, and the reducer 15 drives the driving disc 16 to rotate. The driving disc 16 uses its circumferential driving block 17 and driving groove 18 to push the fixed ball 10, and the fixed ball 10 drives the steel wire rope 9 to move in the second support rail 4, thereby driving the seedling tray 13 to move. When the seedling tray 13 moves to the top of the second support frame 2, it is in a horizontal state, and thus can be loaded and unloaded. When the seedling tray 13 enters the spiral tower position with the steel wire rope 9, it grows. During the growth process, the nutrient solution is supplemented in stages to the seedling tray 13 through the main pipe 34 and the branch pipe 35. During the growth process, the light strip 23 is turned on for supplementary lighting, and the motor 19 is started at the same time. The motor 19 drives the rotating shaft 21 to rotate through the synchronous wheel and synchronous belt, and then drives the fan blades 22 to rotate, so that the interior of the spiral tower is ventilated to facilitate the growth of the seedlings. When the motor 19 is started, it also drives the worm 26 to rotate, and the worm 26 drives the worm wheel 28 and the drive shaft 27 to rotate. The drive shaft 27 drives the blades 29 to rotate, and the insect attractant 36 on the blades 29 attracts flying insects. When the flying insects follow the blades 29 into the guide tube 32, due to the smaller space, some flying insects will fall into the collection box 33 and be drowned by the water therein, reducing the number of flying insects and facilitating the growth of the seedlings.
[0051] The above are only specific embodiments of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention. The embodiments of the present invention and the features therein can be combined with each other unless there is a conflict. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be based on the scope of protection of the claims.
