During use, the liquid level of the nutrient solution in the hydroponic pipe is unstable. When the liquid level is high, the roots of the vegetables are all soaked in the nutrient solution, which can easily cause the roots of the vegetables to lack oxygen and wither. The high liquid level will also cause the nutrient solution to leak out from the holes. When the liquid level is low, the roots of the vegetable seedlings cannot be completely immersed in the nutrient solution, which can easily cause the roots to lose water and damage the vegetable seedlings. In addition, the current method of connecting multiple hydroponic vegetable pipes side by side is adopted. When picking, the vegetables on both sides of the hydroponic pipe are easy to pick, but the vegetables on the hydroponic pipe in the middle are not easy to pick and are difficult to pick. The hydroponic pipe has the problem of being installed too low, and it is more laborious for the pickers to bend over to pick.

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.
[0023] like Figure 1-2 As shown, a hydroponic vegetable pipeline device comprises a hydroponic pipeline 1 and a support frame 2, wherein a plurality of the support frames 2 are liftably connected to the ground and arranged side by side, a plurality of hydroponic pipelines 1 are slidably connected to the top of the support frame 2, a slide rail 9 is provided on the support frame 2, a slider 10 is slidably connected to the slide rail 9, the top of the slider 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the hydroponic pipeline 1, a folding pipeline 7 is connected between the plurality of the hydroponic pipelines 1, one of the hydroponic pipelines 1 is connected to a nutrient solution recovery tank 3 via the folding pipeline 7, and a liquid level detector 6 is installed inside the hydroponic pipeline 1;
[0024] When picking vegetables on the hydroponic pipe 1, the hydroponic pipe 1 located in the middle is moved toward the hydroponic pipes 1 located on both sides by the slider 10.
[0025] The tops of both ends of the hydroponic pipe 1 are respectively fixedly connected with hydroponic pipe push-pull handles.
[0026] Specifically, when picking vegetables on the hydroponic pipe 1, the slider is used to move the hydroponic pipe in the middle close to the hydroponic pipes on both sides, so that the space spacing in the middle position is increased, which is convenient for pickers to enter the middle position to pick vegetables on the hydroponic pipe 1, solving the problem of difficulty in picking vegetables when multiple hydroponic pipes are arranged side by side. The hydroponic pipe push-pull handle is used to facilitate the movement of the hydroponic pipe 1 and the reset of the hydroponic pipe.
[0027] Specifically, the foldable pipe 7 can appropriately extend the length of the pipe so as not to affect the movement of the hydroponic pipe 1 , or an extended pipe can be used to replace the foldable pipe 7 .
[0028] In one embodiment, three support frames 2 are connected side by side on the ground and are all provided with slide rails. Slide blocks 10 are fixed to the bottom of the six hydroponic pipes 1. The six hydroponic pipes 1 are slidably connected to the support frames 2 through the slide blocks 10. When vegetables need to be picked, the positions of the hydroponic pipes on both sides do not move, and the four hydroponic pipes in the middle are moved closer to the hydroponic pipes on both sides, so that the space spacing in the middle position is increased, which is convenient for pickers to enter the middle position to pick vegetables on the hydroponic pipes 1.
[0029] The foldable pipe 7 is connected to both ends of two adjacent hydroponic pipes 1. In one embodiment, the foldable pipe 7 and the hydroponic pipe 1 are connected in series so that the liquid levels of the hydroponic pipes are the same.
[0030] The support frame 2 includes a support frame shell 11, an electric telescopic rod 12 and a top bracket 13. The bottoms of both ends of the top bracket 13 are respectively fixedly connected to the ends of the movable rods of the electric telescopic rod 12. The fixed ends of the electric telescopic rod 12 are installed inside the support frame shell 11. The bottom of the support frame shell 11 is connected to the ground. A slide rail 9 is provided on the top bracket 13, and the hydroponic pipe 1 is slidably connected to the top bracket 13.
[0031] Specifically, the electric telescopic rod 12 can be used to raise and lower the top bracket 13, thereby raising and lowering the hydroponic pipe 1, so that the pickers can enter the middle of the support frame, or adjust the support frame to a height suitable for picking, so as to facilitate picking vegetables on the hydroponic pipe. Each support frame 2 is provided with two sets of lifting components. When in use, six sets of electric telescopic rods 12 are started or closed at the same time, so that the three support frames are raised and lowered to the same height.
[0032] A water pump 4 is installed in the nutrient solution recovery pool 3, and the water pump 4 is connected to a foldable pipe 7; the water pump 4 and the liquid level detector 6 are electrically connected to a PLC controller, and the PLC controller is also electrically connected to an alarm, and the PLC controller is connected to a power supply 8; the PLC controller is electrically connected to a timer 5, and the timer 5 is installed on the wall of the nutrient solution recovery pool 3.
[0033] Specifically, when the water level in the hydroponic pipe 1 is lower than the set requirement, the alarm will sound, and the PLC controller will control the water pump 4 in the nutrient solution recovery pool 3 to inject fertilizer water into the hydroponic pipe 1 to increase the water level, so that the roots of vegetables in the hydroponic pipe 1 reach the water level range required for growth. The water level height can be set according to different growth periods of vegetables, which is conducive to the growth of hydroponic vegetables.
[0034] The end of the hydroponic pipe 1 is connected to a water outlet pipe, and the water outlet pipe is connected to a solenoid valve, and the solenoid valve is electrically connected to the PLC controller.
[0035] Specifically, the water outlet pipe is connected to the end of one of the hydroponic pipes, and the nutrient solution in the hydroponic pipe can be discharged through the water outlet pipe, so that the nutrient solution in the hydroponic pipe can be continuously updated. When the liquid level in the hydroponic pipe 1 is higher than the set value, the PLC controller controls the solenoid valve to open and discharge excess nutrient solution.
[0036] Specifically, the circulation of the nutrient solution can be carried out using a timer 5 as needed, and can adopt modes such as continuous circulation flow and intermittent circulation flow to meet the nutritional needs of vegetables and save resources.
[0037] Specifically, the power supply connected to the PLC controller distributes power to the alarm, the timer 5, and the liquid level detector. When the liquid level is lower than the set value, the alarm sounds to alert personnel.
[0038] The use process of the utility model is as follows:
[0039] First, multiple hydroponic pipes 1 are slidably connected to the support frame 2 using a slider 10;
[0040] Secondly, when the water level in the hydroponic pipe 1 is lower than the set requirement, the alarm will sound to remind personnel to pay attention. The PLC controller controls the water pump 4 in the nutrient solution recovery pool 3 to inject fertilizer water into the hydroponic pipe 1 to increase the water level, so that the roots of vegetables in the hydroponic pipe reach the water level range required for growth. The timer 5 can be used to transport the nutrient solution in modes such as non-stop circulation and intermittent circulation. When the liquid level in the hydroponic pipe 1 is higher than the set value, the PLC controller controls the solenoid valve to open and discharge excess nutrient solution, so that the water level in the hydroponic pipe is at the set value to meet the nutritional needs of the vegetables.
[0041] In addition, when picking vegetables on the hydroponic pipe 1, the slider 10 is used to move the hydroponic pipe 1 in the middle close to the hydroponic pipes 1 on both sides, so that the space spacing in the middle position is increased, which is convenient for pickers to enter the middle position to pick vegetables on the hydroponic pipe 1. The push-pull handle is used to facilitate moving and resetting the hydroponic pipe 1, and the height of the support frame can be appropriately raised or lowered to facilitate pickers to enter the middle of the support frame 2, thereby making it more convenient to pick vegetables on the hydroponic pipe 1.
