An intelligent seedling raising device for germination experiments of aquatic plant seed banks

Abstract

This application relates to an intelligent seedling raising device for aquatic plant seed bank germination experiments, belonging to the field of seed cultivation technology. It includes a cultivation box with wheels, internally equipped with multiple layers of clamps, on which culture dishes containing cultivation troughs and germination paper are placed. An intelligent camera is fixed by a mounting bracket and faces the culture dishes to acquire images. A nozzle can move vertically under the action of a drive mechanism and spray water mist onto the culture dishes. A humidity sensor monitors the humidity inside the box. A heating and cleaning mechanism is linked to the nozzle position; when the nozzle is to the side of the camera, it is in a retracted state to ensure lens imaging; when the nozzle moves down below the camera, the mechanism unfolds and forms a shielding space, spraying and heating air onto the lens to remove moisture and impurities, keeping the lens clear. This device, through the coordinated action of multiple mechanisms, balances water supply, environmental control, and image quality to a certain extent, facilitating the stable conduct of aquatic plant seed germination experiments.
