DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples. In the following detailed description, only certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention are described by way of illustration. Needless to say, those skilled in the art will recognize that the described embodiments may be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the claims.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the combined hydroponic tray includes a hydroponic chassis 1, on which a hydroponic tray 2 is detachably supported, and a plurality of hydroponic through holes 3 are arranged through the hydroponic tray 2. The hydroponic tray 2 and the hydroponic chassis 1 are detachable assembled structures, and a plurality of the hydroponic chassis 1 can be used in combination, so as to fully utilize the indoor planting space. A limiting boss 4 is provided on the inner wall of the hydroponic chassis 1, and the hydroponic tray 2 is supported against the limiting boss 4. The limiting boss 4 can be arranged in sections on the hydroponic chassis 1, or can be arranged in an integrated manner around the hydroponic chassis 1, so that a certain distance is formed between the hydroponic chassis 1 and the hydroponic tray 2 to accommodate the roots of the plants. In this embodiment, the hydroponic chassis 1 and the hydroponic tray 2 are both arranged in a rectangular shape.

[0030] In this embodiment, stem straightening tubes 5 are respectively inserted into the bottom end of the hydroponic tray 2 corresponding to the hydroponic through holes 3, and the stem straightening tubes 5 are arranged to protrude from the bottom surface of the hydroponic tray 2. After the hydroponic plants pass through the hydroponic through holes 3 and the stem straightening tubes 5, their roots are immersed in the water in the hydroponic chassis 1. The arrangement of the stem straightening tubes 5 plays a certain supporting and straightening role for the plants, and because the stem straightening tubes 5 have a certain height, they play a certain protective role for the stems of the plants close to their roots, preventing the impact force generated during the water replenishment process from shaking the plants and abrading their stems.

[0031] In order to facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the hydroponic tray 2 and the hydroponic chassis 1, a tray handle 6 for easy removal is relatively provided on the top surface of the hydroponic tray 2. In this embodiment, a protrusion 7 corresponding to the tray handle 6 is relatively provided on the bottom surface of the hydroponic tray 2. After being assembled with the hydroponic chassis 1, the protrusion 7 abuts against the bottom wall of the hydroponic chassis 1, thereby playing an auxiliary supporting role for the hydroponic tray 2 and the plants arranged in the hydroponic through holes 3.

[0032] The top peripheral side of the hydroponic chassis 1 is provided with a chassis top plate edge 8 extending outward, and the chassis top plate edge 8 is actually the top flange structure of the hydroponic chassis 1. At least one water changing device is provided through the chassis top plate edge 8, and a water inlet 9 and a water outlet 10 are provided on the side wall of the hydroponic chassis 1. The water changing device is connected between the water inlet 9 and the water outlet 10, and the water outlet 10 is provided below the water inlet 9. When the hydroponic chassis 1 is used alone, the water in the hydroponic chassis 1 can be replaced by the water changing device, and the water can be changed without separating the hydroponic tray 2, which is convenient and labor-saving to use.

[0033] Specifically, the water changing device includes a water changing riser 11 that passes through the upper edge 8 of the chassis, and the water changing riser 11 is divided into a water inlet cavity 112 and a water outlet cavity 113 by a water changing baffle 111. The water inlet cavity 112 is sealed and connected with the water inlet 9 by a water inlet pipe section 12, and the water outlet cavity 113 is sealed and connected with the water outlet 10 by a water outlet pipe section 13. When changing water, the water is guided into the hydroponic chassis 1 through the cooperation of the water inlet cavity 112, the water inlet pipe section 12 and the water inlet 9. At the same time, the original water in the hydroponic chassis 1 is guided out from the hydroponic chassis 1 through the cooperation of the water outlet cavity 113, the water outlet pipe section 13 and the water outlet 10. A container is placed under the water outlet cavity 113 to collect the guided wastewater for centralized treatment and more sanitary use.

[0034] A transparent water condition observation window 14 is also sealed and embedded on the side wall of the hydroponic chassis 1. Through the water condition observation window 14, the water level, water quality and root conditions of some plants in the hydroponic chassis 1 can be observed for easy maintenance and management. Chassis handles 15 for easy movement are respectively provided on the two opposite side walls of the hydroponic chassis 1, so as to facilitate site transfer during the hydroponic cultivation of plants. The end of the chassis top plate edge 8 is provided with a chassis side plate edge 16 extending downward. The chassis side plate edge 16 is essentially a skirt after the chassis top plate edge 8 is folded over, which is used to increase the strength of the hydroponic chassis 1, making it more suitable for stacking and assembly, and strengthening the support for the water changing device. Handle through holes 17 corresponding to each of the chassis handles 15 are provided through the chassis side plate edge 16 to avoid the use of the chassis handles 15.

[0035] Insertion support holes are arranged through the top plate edge 8 of the chassis, and a reinforcing support sleeve 18 is correspondingly inserted and fixed in each of the insertion support holes, so as to facilitate overhead assembly when multiple hydroponic chassis 1 are stacked and used in combination, so as to reserve enough space for the growth of plants. The insertion support holes can be set as square holes, and accordingly, the reinforcing support sleeve 18 is set as a square tube, which helps to reduce the weight of the entire structure.

[0036] like Fig. 9 As shown, this embodiment also discloses a hydroponic device, including a plurality of combined hydroponic trays, each of which is stacked up and down, and an elevated support member 19 is inserted and connected between each of the reinforced support sleeves 18 corresponding to two adjacent layers of combined hydroponic trays. The elevated support member 19 is also set as a pipe structure, which is plugged and matched with the two adjacent and corresponding reinforced support sleeves 18 to realize the assembly of the two adjacent layers of combined hydroponic trays. Under the action of the elevated support member 19, a certain spacing space is formed between the two adjacent layers of combined hydroponic trays for plant growth. According to the type of hydroponic plants, the length of the elevated support member 19 can be appropriately adjusted to change the spacing between the two adjacent layers of combined hydroponic trays.

[0037] A connecting water pipe 20 is sealed between the water changing devices corresponding to the two adjacent layers of the combined hydroponic trays. With the cooperation of the connecting water pipe 20 and the water changing device, the water paths of the combined hydroponic trays at each layer are connected, so that water can be injected into the entire device through the water changing device on the top layer to realize water replacement of each combined hydroponic tray.

[0038] like Fig.10 As shown, a circulating water pump 21 is installed on one of the connecting water pipes 20, and the water exchange risers 11 at the upper and lower ends of the hydroponic device are connected by pipelines to form a closed waterway. When the circulating water pump 21 is turned on, water can be circulated between the combined hydroponic trays to increase the oxygen content of the water body, thereby facilitating the rapid growth of the plants. Of course, the circulating pipeline can also be connected to an external water source to achieve water replenishment or water exchange for the system.

[0039] The description of the present invention is given for the purpose of illustration and description, and is not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the present invention to the disclosed form. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art. The embodiments are selected and described to better illustrate the principles and practical applications of the present invention and to enable those of ordinary skill in the art to understand the present invention and design various embodiments with various modifications suitable for specific uses.
