[0018] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.
[0019] Example: Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The sweet potato storage and transportation box includes a frame 1, a rotating door 101 is rotatably connected to the frame 1, and the rotating door 101 is opened to facilitate the taking and placing of sweet potatoes. The frame 1 is in a ventilated form to ensure ventilation. A multi-layer partition board 2 is slidingly provided in the frame 1. In order to store more sweet potatoes 13 and to avoid the mutual squeezing of more sweet potatoes 13, the multi-layer partition board 2 is used to separate the sweet potatoes 13. An electric telescopic rod 3 is connected between two adjacent partition boards 2. One end of the electric telescopic rod 3 is fixed to the partition board 2, and the telescopic end is fixedly connected to the bottom side of the partition board 2. The frame 1 is fixed It is fixedly connected with a slide rail 102, and a slider corresponding to the slide rail 102 is fixedly linked to the partition plate 2; in order to adjust the distance between the partition plates 2 to hold sweet potatoes 23 of different sizes, a plurality of support bar groups are provided on the upper side of the partition plate 2, and a plurality of lower pressing bar groups are provided on the lower side of the partition plate 2. The support bar group and the lower pressing bar group are used to clamp the sweet potatoes 13. By setting multiple areas on the partition plate 2, support bar groups and lower pressure adjustment groups are respectively provided in the multiple areas to separate, support and clamp the sweet potatoes 13, and to support and separate the sweet potatoes 13, effectively preventing the sweet potatoes 13 from being squeezed and damaged by each other.
[0020] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in the specific implementation, in order to further effectively support and clamp the sweet potato 13, according to the characteristics of the irregular shape of the sweet potato 13, the following technical solution is adopted to support and clamp it. The support bar group is composed of multiple support bars 4, and the lower pressing bar group is composed of multiple lower pressing bars 5. The support bar 4 includes a support cylinder 401 slidably set on the partition plate 2, and the support cylinder 401 is slidably connected to the first telescopic bar 402. The lower pressing bar 5 includes a lower pressing cylinder 501 connected to the bottom side of the partition plate 2, and the lower pressing cylinder 501 is slidably connected to the second telescopic bar 502. The second telescopic bar 502 and the lower pressing cylinder 501 are connected. A third spring 503 is arranged in the middle, and the first telescopic strip 402 and the second telescopic strip 502 are used to support the sweet potato 13. The sweet potato 13 is placed on the support strip 4. First, the part with the largest diameter of the sweet potato 13 will press down the corresponding support strip 4, and for the part with a smaller diameter of the end of the sweet potato 13, the support strip 4 will press down slightly. The overall support strip 4 will move downward according to the shape of the sweet potato 13 to form an overall groove to support the sweet potato 13. Similarly, the lower pressing strip 5 is also pressed down to form an irregular groove corresponding to the shape of the sweet potato 13, which is used to support the wrapped sweet potato 13, and can effectively support and clamp the sweet potato 13 for easy transportation.
[0021] Reference Figure 6 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8, It should also be noted that, when scientific researchers are conducting seedling research and development, in order to facilitate the selection and removal of excessively bent and bifurcated tubers, a support ring 406 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the support cylinder 401, a first conductive sheet 408 is fixedly connected to the support ring 406, a second conductive sheet 409 corresponding to the first conductive sheet 408 is fixedly connected to the partition plate 2, a third conductive sheet 505 is fixedly connected to the second telescopic strip 502, and a fourth conductive sheet (504) corresponding to the third conductive sheet 505 is fixedly connected to the lower pressure cylinder 501. The first conductive sheet 408, the second conductive sheet 409, the third conductive sheet 505 and the fourth conductive sheet (504) are all electrically connected to an external computer; When the sweet potato 13 is placed on the support bar group, the sweet potato 13 will move downward under the action of its own weight to press the support bar 4. When multiple support bars 4 are gradually and slowly pressed down by the sweet potato 13, the support tube 401 moves downward, and the first conductive sheet 408 and the second conductive sheet 409 are separated. The remote computer receives the separation signals on the multiple support bars 4 in turn, records the separation time, moves the partition plate 2 to clamp the sweet potato, and at the same time, the first conductive sheet 408 and the second conductive sheet 409 on the lower pressing bar 5 are separated, and the signal is transmitted to the computer. The computer analyzes the recorded time and the corresponding positions of the support bars 4 and the lower pressing bar 5, and preliminarily analyzes the shape regularity of the sweet potato 13. The computer is used to analyze the overall regular shape of a batch of sweet potatoes 13 in the frame. When they are removed for research and development seedling cultivation, the tubers that are relatively bent too much and have large forks in the same batch are removed to ensure that the overall shape of the sweet potatoes in the same batch of seedlings will not deviate too much, so as to facilitate subsequent research and development seedling cultivation.
[0022] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 1 In some other embodiments, in order to better protect the sweet potato 13, the ends of the first telescopic strip 402 and the second telescopic strip 502 are fixedly connected with a protective soft cover 403, which can play a protective role when supporting and clamping.
[0023] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 In the specific implementation, it should be noted that, since the end diameter of the sweet potato is small, it is necessary to apply light pressure on the sweet potato 13 to move the support tube 401 downward, thereby realizing the separation of the first conductive sheet 408 and the second conductive sheet 409. Therefore, when the first telescopic strip 402 is used to support the sweet potato 13, a first spring 404 is provided in the support tube 401, and a second spring 407 is connected between the support ring 406 and the partition plate 2. The elastic force of the first spring 404 is greater than that of the second spring 407, ensuring that the support tube 401 moves downward first, and after reaching the elastic force value of the second spring 407, the first telescopic strip 402 moves downward relative to the support tube 401.
[0024] Reference Figure 5 、 Figure 6 and Figure 7In some other embodiments, in order to further facilitate R&D personnel to distinguish and select a batch of sweet potatoes 13, and to select sweet potatoes from the same batch without too much deviation in size or weight, the following technical solution is adopted: buffer water is contained in the support cylinder 401, a sliding hole 201 is provided on the partition plate 2, the support cylinder 401 is slidably set on the sliding hole 201, a plurality of collection tanks 202 are provided on the partition plate 2, and the plurality of collection tanks 202 are connected through the connecting hole 8. The support cylinder 401 is connected to the collection tank 202 through a drain pipe 405 with a pressure valve, and a measuring cylinder 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom side of the partition plate 2. The top wall of the measuring cylinder 6 A water level measuring instrument 9 is provided on it, and the measuring tube 6 is connected to the collecting tank 202 through the collecting hole 7. After the sweet potato 13 is placed on the support bar 4 and before the lower pressing bar 5 is pressed down, the sweet potato 13 will press down the first telescopic bar 402 under the action of its own weight. The support tube 401 contains buffer water, which can play a buffering role on the one hand, and on the other hand, the buffer water enters the collecting tank 202 through the drain pipe 405 after being pressurized and flows into the measuring tube 6. The water level is measured by the water level measuring instrument 9, and the water levels measured by the measuring tubes 6 in multiple areas on the partition plate 2 are compared. For those with large deviations, they will be removed during the subsequent seedling cultivation and will not participate in the seedling cultivation.
[0025] Reference Figure 6 It should be noted again that, in some embodiments, in order to ensure the overall ambient temperature of the sweet potato, the electric heating tube 10 connected to the measuring tube 6 can be turned on and off according to the overall ambient temperature of the frame 1 to avoid freezing in cold weather.
