Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of rice cultivation, and more specifically, to a rice cultivation box and its usage method. Background Technology

[0002] Rice is a major food crop in China, and its production plays a pivotal role in the national economy. During the growth process of rice seedlings, rice cultivation boxes are used to provide suitable temperature, humidity, light and other conditions for rice seeds to promote rapid seed germination and robust seedling growth.

[0003] In the early stages of seedling growth, when the root system is not fully developed, foliar spraying in rice culture boxes is needed to quickly replenish water and promote seedling growth. In the middle stages of seedling growth, as the seedlings grow and the root system gradually develops, soil spraying in rice culture boxes is needed to ensure that the roots can fully absorb water. However, in existing rice culture boxes, the water sprayed through foliar spraying and soil spraying is usually directly discharged from the rice culture box and cannot be recycled, which leads to a waste of water resources.

[0004] Therefore, we have made improvements to this and proposed a rice cultivation box and its usage method. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the problem that existing rice cultivation boxes use foliar spraying and soil spraying to replenish water for rice seedlings, but the water after spraying is usually discharged directly from the rice cultivation box and cannot be recycled, thus leading to water waste.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, this invention provides a rice cultivation box and its usage method to solve the aforementioned problems.

[0007] The application is as follows:

[0008] Includes a box body, a planting pot slidably disposed on the box body, and a switching mechanism disposed on the box body;

[0009] The switching mechanism includes a water storage chamber disposed within the housing, a delivery pipe fixedly passing through the housing, a water outlet on the delivery pipe, a rotatable rectangular frame disposed on the delivery pipe, an atomizing nozzle disposed on the rectangular frame, a sealing block disposed on the delivery pipe, an L-shaped pipe disposed on the rectangular frame, a semi-circular block disposed on the L-shaped pipe, a semi-circular groove disposed on the rectangular frame, a mounting base disposed on the delivery pipe, a drive gear disposed on the mounting base, a motor disposed on the housing, a transmission gear disposed on the output end of the motor, a water pump disposed on the housing, and a through hole disposed on the planting pot.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the sealing block and the atomizing nozzle are adapted to each other, the semicircular block and the semicircular groove are adapted to each other, the rectangular frame is set on the mounting base, the conveying pipe is set on the water pump, the through hole and the water storage chamber are connected, and the drive gear and the transmission gear are adapted to each other.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the planting pot is provided with an annular cavity, and the annular cavity is provided with a connecting hole.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the mounting base is provided with an electric telescopic rod, the electric telescopic rod is provided with a drive rack, and the L-shaped tube is provided with a synchronous gear, the synchronous gear and the drive rack being compatible.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the inside of the rectangular frame is cylindrical, and the sealing block is slidably disposed inside the rectangular frame.

[0014] As a preferred technical solution of this application, a guide groove is provided on the rectangular frame, a jacking column is slidably provided on the guide groove, a spring is provided on the corresponding surface of the guide groove and the jacking column, and a slot is provided on the L-shaped tube.

[0015] As a preferred technical solution of this application, both the slot and the push post are dome-shaped, and the slot and the push post are adapted to each other.

[0016] As a preferred technical solution of this application, a filter screen is provided inside the water storage cavity, and the filter screen is disposed on the planting pot.

[0017] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the filter screen is cylindrical.

[0018] The method for using a rice incubator is as follows:

[0019] Step S1: During use, in the early stage of rice seedling development, the motor is started, and the output end of the motor drives the transmission gear to rotate. The transmission gear rotates and drives the drive gear to rotate. The drive gear rotates and drives the mounting base, rectangular frame, and atomizing nozzle to rotate synchronously. The output end of the atomizing nozzle is aimed at the rice seedling. The water pump is started, and the water in the water storage chamber is pumped into the rectangular frame through the delivery pipe and water outlet through the water pump. Finally, the water in the rectangular frame is discharged in an atomized form through the atomizing nozzle. The atomized water is used to spray the leaves of the rice seedling. The semi-circular block on the L-shaped pipe blocks the semi-circular groove, so that the water in the L-shaped pipe and the rectangular frame are not connected. At this time, the excess water in the planting pot will be discharged into the water storage chamber through the through hole.

[0020] Step S2: When the rice is in the middle of its growth, the electric telescopic rod is activated to drive the drive rack to slide, which in turn drives the synchronous gear to rotate synchronously. The synchronous gear then drives the L-shaped tube to rotate synchronously, causing the L-shaped tube to rotate 180 degrees. At this point, the semicircular block releases the blockage on the semicircular groove, allowing the water in the L-shaped tube and the rectangular frame to connect. Similarly, the rectangular frame is rotated by the motor, at which point the blocking block blocks the channel of the atomizing nozzle, preventing the atomizing nozzle from atomizing the water. Then, the water pump is activated to discharge the water in the water storage chamber from the L-shaped tube. The water then flows through the annular cavity and enters the soil in the planting pot through the connecting holes. There are multiple connecting holes arranged in a circular and linear array on the planting pot. This distribution method allows the water in the annular cavity to irrigate the soil layer by layer, improving the uniformity of soil spraying.

[0021] Step S3: When the rice seedlings are in a high-temperature period, the rectangular frame and the atomizing nozzle are rotated by the motor. At this time, the output end of the atomizing nozzle is opposite to the direction of the rice seedling. Then, the water pump is started, so that the atomizing nozzle sprays water mist in the opposite direction of the rice seedling, and the humidity around the rice seedling is regulated by the water mist.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0023] In the scheme of this application:

[0024] 1. To address the problem that existing rice cultivation boxes replenish water to rice seedlings through foliar spraying and soil spraying, but the sprayed water is usually directly discharged from the rice cultivation box and cannot be recycled, thus wasting water resources, this application proposes a switching mechanism that enables the switching between foliar spraying and soil spraying. During foliar spraying and soil spraying, excess water in the planting pot is discharged into the water storage chamber through the through hole, realizing water recycling and improving resource utilization.

[0025] 2. By setting a switching mechanism, the soil is watered layer by layer during soil spraying, which improves the uniformity of soil spraying, avoids water concentration on the soil surface or a certain layer, improves water utilization, and solves the problem of low water utilization caused by soil moisture concentration in the existing technology.

[0026] 3. By setting a switching mechanism, water mist is sprayed in the opposite direction of rice seedlings through atomizing nozzles. The water mist regulates the humidity around the rice seedlings, preventing high temperature from affecting the growth of rice seedlings and solving the problem of high temperature environment affecting the growth of rice seedlings in the existing technology.

[0027] 4. By setting a switching mechanism, the root system of rice seedlings is guided to prevent the roots of adjacent rice seedlings from getting tangled together, thus avoiding uneven growth caused by competition among the roots of rice seedlings and improving the uniformity of growth. This solves the problem of uneven growth caused by root entanglement in rice seedlings in the prior art. Attached Figure Description

[0040] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0041] As described in the background section, rice seedlings are watered by foliar spraying and soil spraying in rice cultivation boxes. However, the water after spraying is usually discharged directly from the rice cultivation box and cannot be recycled, which leads to a waste of water resources.

[0042] To solve this technical problem, the present invention provides a rice cultivation box and its usage method, which is applied to rice cultivation.

[0043] For details, please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 9 As shown, the rice cultivation box specifically includes: a box body 1, a planting pot 101 slidably disposed on the box body 1, and a switching mechanism 2 disposed on the box body 1. In the prior art, the planting pot 101 contains soil for planting rice, and rice seeds are planted in the soil.

[0044] The switching mechanism 2 includes a water storage chamber 201 disposed inside the housing 1, a conveying pipe 202 fixedly passing through the housing 1, a water outlet 203 disposed on the conveying pipe 202, a rectangular frame 204 rotatably disposed on the conveying pipe 202, an atomizing nozzle 205 disposed on the rectangular frame 204, a sealing block 206 disposed on the conveying pipe 202, an L-shaped pipe 207 rotatably disposed on the rectangular frame 204, a semi-circular block 208 disposed on the L-shaped pipe 207, a semi-circular groove 209 disposed on the rectangular frame 204, a mounting base 210 rotatably disposed on the conveying pipe 202, a drive gear 211 disposed on the mounting base 210, a motor 212 disposed on the housing 1, a transmission gear 213 disposed on the output end of the motor 212, a water pump 214 disposed on the housing 1, and a through hole 215 disposed on the planting pot 101.

[0045] The rice cultivation box and its usage method provided by this invention address the problem that in the prior art, rice cultivation boxes replenish water to rice seedlings through foliar spraying and soil spraying, but the sprayed water is usually directly discharged from the rice cultivation box and cannot be recycled, resulting in water waste. This application solves the problem by setting a switching mechanism 2, which realizes the switching between foliar spraying and soil spraying. During foliar spraying and soil spraying, excess water in the planting pot 101 is discharged into the water storage chamber 201 through the through hole 215, realizing water recycling and improving resource utilization.

[0046] By using the switching mechanism 2, the soil is sprayed layer by layer during soil spraying, which improves the uniformity of soil spraying, avoids water concentration on the soil surface or a certain layer, improves water utilization, and solves the problem of low water utilization caused by soil moisture concentration in the prior art.

[0047] By using the switching mechanism 2, water mist is sprayed out in the opposite direction of the rice seedlings through the atomizing nozzle 205. The water mist regulates the humidity around the rice seedlings, preventing high temperature from affecting the growth of the rice seedlings and solving the problem of high temperature environment affecting the growth of rice seedlings in the existing technology.

[0048] By using the switching mechanism 2, the roots of rice seedlings are guided to prevent the roots of adjacent rice seedlings from becoming entangled. This avoids uneven growth caused by competition among the roots of rice seedlings, improves the uniformity of growth, and solves the problem of uneven growth caused by root entanglement in rice seedlings in the prior art.

[0049] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0050] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features and technical solutions in the present invention can be combined with each other.

[0051] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0052] Example 1, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, a rice cultivation box has a sealing block 206 and an atomizing nozzle 205 that are adapted to each other, a semi-circular block 208 and a semi-circular groove 209 that are adapted to each other, a rectangular frame 204 that is set on a mounting base 210, a conveying pipe 202 that is set on a water pump 214, a through hole 215 that is connected to a water storage chamber 201, and a drive gear 211 and a transmission gear 213 that are adapted to each other.

[0053] In use, during the early stages of rice seedling growth, starting the motor 212 causes the transmission gear 213 to rotate. The rotation of the transmission gear 213 then drives the drive gear 211 to rotate, which in turn drives the mounting base 210, the rectangular frame 204, and the atomizing nozzle 205 to rotate synchronously. Figure 6 As shown, the output end of the atomizing nozzle 205 is aimed at the rice seedlings. The water pump 214 is activated, and the water storage chamber 201 contains water. The water pump 214 pumps the water from the storage chamber 201 into the rectangular frame 204 through the delivery pipe 202 and the outlet hole 203. Finally, the water in the rectangular frame 204 is atomized and discharged through the atomizing nozzle 205, spraying the rice seedlings with the atomized water. The semi-circular block 208 on the L-shaped pipe 207 blocks the semi-circular groove 209, preventing water flow between the L-shaped pipe 207 and the rectangular frame 204. Excess water in the planting pot 101 is then discharged into the storage chamber 201 through the through hole 215. When the rice is in the middle growth stage, such as... Figure 7As shown, driving the L-shaped tube 207 to rotate 180 degrees causes the semi-circular block 208 to release the blockage of the semi-circular groove 209, allowing the water in the L-shaped tube 207 and the rectangular frame 204 to connect. Similarly, the rectangular frame 204 is driven to rotate by the motor 212. At this time, the blocking block 206 blocks the channel of the atomizing nozzle 205, preventing the atomizing nozzle 205 from atomizing the water. Then, the water pump 214 is started, and the water in the water storage chamber 201 is discharged from the L-shaped tube 207 by the water pump 214. The water discharged from the L-shaped tube 207 is used for soil spraying. The excess water in the planting pot 101 is discharged into the water storage chamber 201 through the through hole 215. In this way, the switching between foliar spraying and soil spraying is realized. When spraying foliar water or soil, the excess water in the planting pot 101 is discharged into the water storage chamber 201 through the through hole 215, realizing the recycling of water and improving the utilization rate of resources.

[0054] The planting pot 101 is provided with an annular cavity 216, and the annular cavity 216 is provided with a connecting hole 217;

[0055] like Figure 6 As shown, the output end of the L-shaped tube 207 is aligned with the annular cavity 216. When the L-shaped tube 207 discharges water, the water will pass through the annular cavity 216 and enter the soil in the planting pot 101 through the connecting hole 217. Multiple connecting holes 217 are provided, and the multiple connecting holes 217 are arranged in a circular array and a linear array on the planting pot 101. Through this distribution method, the water in the annular cavity 216 can water the soil layer by layer, improve the uniformity of soil spraying, avoid water concentration on the soil surface or a certain layer, and improve the water utilization rate.

[0056] The mounting base 210 is provided with an electric telescopic rod 218, the electric telescopic rod 218 is provided with a drive rack 219, and the L-shaped tube 207 is provided with a synchronous gear 220, which is compatible with the drive rack 219.

[0057] By activating the electric telescopic rod 218, the drive rack 219 is driven to slide, the drive rack 219 drives the synchronous gear 220 to rotate synchronously, and the synchronous gear 220 drives the L-shaped tube 207 to rotate synchronously. In this way, the automatic rotation of the L-shaped tube 207 is achieved, thereby quickly switching the blocking status of the semicircular block 208 and the semicircular groove 209.

[0058] The interior of the rectangular frame 204 is cylindrical, and the sealing block 206 is slidably disposed inside the rectangular frame 204.

[0059] When rice seedlings are exposed to high temperatures, such as Figure 8As shown, the rectangular frame 204 and the atomizing nozzle 205 are driven to rotate by the motor 212. At this time, the output end of the atomizing nozzle 205 is opposite to the direction of the rice seedling. Then, the water pump 214 is started, so that the atomizing nozzle 205 sprays water mist in the opposite direction of the rice seedling. The water mist is used to regulate the humidity around the rice seedling and prevent high temperature from affecting the growth of the rice seedling.

[0060] The switching mechanism 2 enables the switching between foliar spraying and soil spraying. During foliar spraying and soil spraying, excess water in the planting pot 101 is drained into the water storage chamber 201 through the through hole 215, realizing water recycling and improving resource utilization. During soil spraying, the soil is watered layer by layer, improving the uniformity of soil spraying and avoiding water concentration on the soil surface or a certain layer, thus improving water utilization. When rice seedlings are in high temperature, water mist is sprayed in the opposite direction of the rice seedlings through the atomizing nozzle 205, and the humidity around the rice seedlings is regulated by the water mist to prevent high temperature from affecting the growth of rice seedlings.

[0061] Example 2 further optimizes the rice culture box provided in Example 1, specifically, as follows: Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, a guide groove 221 is provided on the rectangular frame 204, a top moving post 222 is slidably provided on the guide groove 221, a spring 223 is provided on the corresponding surface of the guide groove 221 and the top moving post 222, and a slot 224 is provided on the L-shaped tube 207.

[0062] When the L-shaped tube 207 rotates, the slot 224 and the push pin 222 on the L-shaped tube 207 are in a state of engagement and disengagement. The elasticity of the spring 223 drives the push pin 222 to hit the slot 224, causing the L-shaped tube 207 to vibrate. The vibration disturbs the water flow in the atomizing nozzle 205, preventing impurities from depositing and accumulating inside the atomizing nozzle 205, thus improving the service life of the atomizing nozzle 205. The engagement of the push pin 222 and the slot 224 positions the L-shaped tube 207.

[0063] Furthermore, both the slot 224 and the push post 222 are dome-shaped, and the slot 224 and the push post 222 are compatible with each other;

[0064] The dome-shaped design of both the slot 224 and the push post 222 reduces friction at the contact ends of the slot 224 and the push post 222, preventing jamming when the L-shaped tube 207 rotates.

[0065] Furthermore, a filter screen 225 is installed inside the water storage chamber 201, and the filter screen 225 is installed on the planting pot 101;

[0066] The water discharged into the water storage chamber 201 through the through hole 215 is filtered by the filter screen 225 to prevent soil particles in the water storage chamber 201 from affecting the normal use of the atomizing nozzle 205.

[0067] Furthermore, filter 225 is cylindrical;

[0068] The cylindrical filter 225 guides the roots of rice seedlings. Since the roots of rice seedlings will enter the filter 225 through the through-hole, the cylindrical filter 225 guides the roots of rice seedlings, preventing the roots of adjacent rice seedlings from getting tangled together. This avoids uneven growth caused by competition among the roots of rice seedlings and improves the uniformity of growth.

[0069] By using the switching mechanism 2 to guide the roots of rice seedlings, the roots of adjacent rice seedlings are prevented from becoming entangled, thus avoiding uneven growth caused by competition among the roots and improving the uniformity of growth.

[0070] Example 3: A method for using a rice incubator, comprising the following steps:

[0071] Step S1: During use, in the early stage of rice seedling development, the motor 212 is started. The output of the motor 212 drives the transmission gear 213 to rotate. The rotation of the transmission gear 213 drives the drive gear 211 to rotate. The rotation of the drive gear 211 drives the mounting base 210, the rectangular frame 204, and the atomizing nozzle 205 to rotate synchronously. The output of the atomizing nozzle 205 is aligned with the rice seedling. The water pump 214 is started, and water is stored in the water storage chamber 201. The water pump 214 pumps water to the seedlings. Water in the water storage chamber 201 is discharged into the rectangular frame 204 through the delivery pipe 202 and the water outlet 203. Finally, the water in the rectangular frame 204 is discharged in an atomized form through the atomizing nozzle 205. The atomized water is used to spray the leaves of the rice seedlings. The semi-circular block 208 on the L-shaped pipe 207 blocks the semi-circular groove 209, so that the water in the L-shaped pipe 207 and the rectangular frame 204 are not connected. At this time, the excess water in the planting pot 101 will be discharged into the water storage chamber 201 through the through hole 215.

[0072] In step S2, when the rice is in the middle stage of growth, the electric telescopic rod 218 is activated to drive the drive rack 219 to slide. The drive rack 219 drives the synchronous gear 220 to rotate synchronously, and the synchronous gear 220 drives the L-shaped tube 207 to rotate synchronously, causing the L-shaped tube 207 to rotate 180 degrees. At this time, the semi-circular block 208 releases the blockage on the semi-circular groove 209, allowing the water in the L-shaped tube 207 and the rectangular frame 204 to connect. Similarly, the motor 212 drives the rectangular frame 204 to rotate, at which time the blocking block 206 seals the channel of the atomizing nozzle 205. If the blockage prevents the atomizing nozzle 205 from atomizing the water, the water pump 214 is activated. The water in the water storage chamber 201 is discharged from the L-shaped pipe 207 by the water pump 214. The water then flows through the annular chamber 216 and enters the soil in the planting pot 101 through the connecting hole 217. Multiple connecting holes 217 are provided, and the multiple connecting holes 217 are arranged in a circular array and a linear array on the planting pot 101. Through this distribution, the water in the annular chamber 216 can water the soil layer by layer, improving the uniformity of soil spraying.

[0073] In step S3, when the rice seedlings are in a high-temperature period, the rectangular frame 204 and the atomizing nozzle 205 are driven to rotate by the motor 212. At this time, the output end of the atomizing nozzle 205 is opposite to the direction of the rice seedlings. Then, the water pump 214 is started, so that the atomizing nozzle 205 sprays water mist in the opposite direction of the rice seedlings, and the humidity around the rice seedlings is regulated by the water mist.

4. A rice cultivation box according to claim 3, characterized in that, The filter screen (225) is cylindrical.

5. A method of using a rice culture box, comprising using a rice culture box as described in claim 4, characterized in that, Includes the following steps: Step S1: In use, during the early stage of rice seedling development, the motor (212) is started. The output end of the motor (212) drives the transmission gear (213) to rotate. The rotation of the transmission gear (213) drives the drive gear (211) to rotate. The rotation of the drive gear (211) drives the mounting base (210), the rectangular frame (204), and the atomizing nozzle (205) to rotate synchronously. The output end of the atomizing nozzle (205) is aligned with the rice seedling. The water pump (214) is started, in which water is stored in the water storage chamber (201). The water is pumped by the water pump (214) to pump the stored water. Water in the water chamber (201) is discharged into the rectangular frame (204) through the delivery pipe (202) and the outlet hole (203). Finally, the water in the rectangular frame (204) is discharged in a mist form through the atomizing nozzle (205). The atomized water is used to spray the leaves of the rice seedlings. The semicircular block (208) on the L-shaped pipe (207) blocks the semicircular groove (209), so that the water in the L-shaped pipe (207) and the rectangular frame (204) are not connected. At this time, the excess water in the planting pot (101) will be discharged into the water storage chamber (201) through the through hole (215). Step S2: When the rice is in the middle stage of growth, the electric telescopic rod (218) is activated to drive the drive rack (219) to slide. The drive rack (219) drives the synchronous gear (220) to rotate synchronously. The synchronous gear (220) drives the L-shaped tube (207) to rotate synchronously, so that the L-shaped tube (207) rotates 180 degrees. At this time, the semicircular block (208) releases the blockage on the semicircular groove (209), so that the water in the L-shaped tube (207) and the rectangular frame (204) is connected. Similarly, the motor (212) drives the rectangular frame (204) to rotate. At this time, the blocking block (206) blocks the flow of water through the atomizing nozzle (205). The channel is blocked, preventing the atomizing nozzle (205) from atomizing the water. At this time, the water pump (214) is started, and the water in the water storage chamber (201) is discharged from the L-shaped pipe (207) by the water pump (214). The water will then enter the annular cavity (216) and enter the soil in the planting pot (101) through the connecting hole (217). There are multiple connecting holes (217), which are arranged in a circular array and a linear array on the planting pot (101). Through the above arrangement, the water in the annular cavity (216) can irrigate the soil layer by layer, improving the uniformity of soil spraying. In step S3, when the rice seedlings are in a high-temperature period, the rectangular frame (204) and the atomizing nozzle (205) are driven to rotate by the motor (212). At this time, the output end of the atomizing nozzle (205) is opposite to the direction of the rice seedlings. Then, the water pump (214) is started, so that the atomizing nozzle (205) sprays water mist in the opposite direction of the rice seedlings, and the humidity around the rice seedlings is regulated by the water mist.
