The traditional cultivation method is to cultivate them in greenhouses. This method has simple conditions and poor survival of seedlings.

[0003] Nowadays, plant seeds are usually cultivated in incubators. During the cultivation process, the plants need to be watered and cared for so that the seeds grow healthily and high-quality seedlings are cultivated. However, watering plant seeds is usually done directly by spraying them through sprinkler heads. This cannot ensure that the seeds in each cultivation cup can get enough water. Appropriate humidity during seed cultivation can increase the survival rate of seeds and improve production capacity. On the contrary, unsuitable humidity will cause the seeds to rot and die.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0023] Embodiment 1:

[0024] See also Figure 1-6 A seed cultivation device comprises a cultivation bin 1, wherein a fixed plate 2 is fixedly installed inside the cultivation bin 1, and a plurality of groups of cultivation cups 3 are fixedly installed on the fixed plate 2. A water replenishing mechanism is installed inside the cultivation bin 1, and the water replenishing mechanism comprises a hole groove 4, a semipermeable membrane 5, a support plate 7, a cylindrical seat 8 and a threaded column 9. A hole groove 4 is provided at the middle position of the bottom end of each group of cultivation cups 3, and a semipermeable membrane 5 is fixedly installed inside each group of hole grooves 4. A support plate 7 is slidably installed at a position below the fixed plate 2 inside the cultivation bin 1, a cylindrical seat 8 is rotatably installed at the middle position of the bottom end of the cultivation bin 1, a threaded column 9 is fixedly installed at the middle position of the bottom end of the support plate 7, an internal thread corresponding to the threaded column 9 is provided inside the cylindrical seat 8, and the threaded column 9 is threadedly connected with the internal thread.

[0025] The water replenishment mechanism also includes a first motor 10, a rotating shaft 11, a worm gear 12 and a worm 13. The first motor 10 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the rear end of the cultivation bin 1, and the output end of the first motor 10 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 11. The other end of the rotating shaft 11 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the front end of the cultivation bin 1. The worm gear 12 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the cylindrical seat 8. The worm 13 is fixedly installed at the corresponding position of the rotating shaft 11 and the worm gear 12. The worm gear 12 is meshingly connected with the worm gear 13.

[0026] A soil moisture sensor 6 is fixedly installed on one side of the bottom end of each group of cultivation cups 3, a liquid level sensor 17 is fixedly installed on the bottom end of the fixed plate 2, a control panel 18 is fixedly installed on the right outer wall of the cultivation bin 1, and two groups of fill lights 19 are fixedly installed on the top end of the cultivation bin 1. The soil moisture sensor 6, the first motor 10, the second motor 15, the liquid level sensor 17, the fill light 19 and the electromagnetic valve 25 are all electrically connected to the control panel 18.

[0027] When the device needs to replenish water for the cultivated seeds, the staff can control the operation of the first motor 10 through the control panel 18, thereby driving the worm 13 fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 11 to rotate. Because the worm 13 is meshed and connected with the worm wheel 12 fixedly installed on the outer wall of the cylindrical seat 8, the cylindrical seat 8 is synchronously driven to rotate. Because the internal thread of the cylindrical seat 8 is threadedly connected with the threaded column 9 fixedly installed at the lower end of the support plate 7, the rotation of the cylindrical seat 8 can drive the support plate 7 to rise and fall. Then, the signal detected by the liquid level sensor 17 is checked through the control panel 18, so that the support plate 7 lifts the water until the semipermeable membrane 5 is submerged. Then, the signal detected by the soil moisture sensor 6 is checked through the control panel 18, and the first motor 10 is reversed to lower the support plate 7, thereby ensuring that the seeds in each cultivation cup 3 can get enough water, while also preventing the seeds from being subjected to excessive humidity, which will cause the seeds to rot and die.

[0028] Embodiment 2:

[0029] See also Figure 1-6 This embodiment provides a technical solution based on the first embodiment: two groups of mounting grooves 14 are opened on the support plate 7, and a second motor 15 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the support plate 7 directly below the two groups of mounting grooves 14. The output ends of the two groups of second motors 15 are fixedly connected to driving shafts, and the other ends of the two groups of driving shafts extend to the inside of the mounting grooves 14 at corresponding positions, and are fixedly connected to fan blades 16. An electromagnetic valve 25 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the cultivation chamber 1 below the fixed plate 2.

[0030] A warehouse door 20 is rotatably installed at the left edge of the top front end of the cultivation warehouse 1, a magnetic attraction piece 21 is vertically fixedly installed at the right edge of the rear end of the warehouse door 20, a magnetic attraction piece 22 is fixedly installed at the corresponding position of the cultivation warehouse 1 and the magnetic attraction piece 21, and a handle 23 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the front end of the warehouse door 20.

[0031] Rubber pads 24 are fixedly installed at the four corners of the bottom of the cultivation bin 1.

[0032] When the device adds nutrient solution to the water for supplementing the seeds, before starting the first motor 10 to drive the water replenishing mechanism to operate, the staff can first inject the nutrient solution into the water through the set electromagnetic valve 25, and then synchronously start the two sets of set second motors 15 through the control panel 18, so that the two sets of fan blades 16 are synchronously driven to rotate, so that the nutrient solution added to the water is mixed with the water more evenly, and it also ensures that when replenishing water for the seeds, each group of seeds can also absorb the nutrient solution evenly, so that the practicality of the device is higher.
