Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0030] Secondly, the term "one embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The term "in one embodiment" that appears in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor does it refer to a separate or selective embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments.
[0031] Example 1, reference Figures 1 to 3 , which is the first embodiment of the utility model, and this embodiment provides an intermittent rotation mechanism, which can solve the problem of insufficient lighting conditions for succulents near indoors when a large number of succulents are cultivated. It includes a driving assembly 100, which includes a support plate 101, and also includes a driving motor 102 fixedly mounted on the support plate 101, and a dial member 103 fixedly connected to the output shaft of the driving motor 102, a groove wheel assembly 200, which includes a rotating rod 201 rotatably mounted on the support plate 101, and also includes a groove wheel member 202 arranged on the rotating rod 201.
[0032] The support plate 101 is U-shaped, and a fixed support rod 104 is provided on the driving motor 102 . The driving motor 102 is fixedly installed below the support plate 101 through the fixed support rod 104 .
[0033] In this embodiment, mounting holes are provided at both ends of the U-shape of the support plate 101. A fixing rod 104 is fixedly installed on the fixing hole of the drive motor 102 by bolts, and one end of the fixing rod 104 away from the drive motor 102 is fixedly connected to the support plate 101. The dial member 103 is rotatably installed on the support plate 101 through a bearing, and the rotating rod 201 is also rotatably installed on the support plate 101 through a bearing. The groove wheel member 202 is fixedly installed on the circumferential side wall of the rotating rod 201, and the groove wheel member 202 and the dial member 103 correspond to each other. The rotation of the drive motor 102 drives the dial member 103 to rotate, so that the driving groove wheel member 202 rotates intermittently, thereby making the rotating rod 201 on which the groove wheel member 202 is installed rotate intermittently. At this time, a placement plate 300 is installed on the rotating rod 201, and a plurality of succulents are placed in a circular array. Through the intermittent rotation of the rotating rod 201, the positions of the plurality of succulents on the placement plate 300 can be intermittently interchanged, so that they can all receive light evenly.
[0034] The dial member 103 includes a rotating shaft 103a rotatably mounted on the support plate 101. The rotating shaft 103a and the support plate 101 are rotatably connected via a bearing, and the rotating shaft 103a longitudinally penetrates the support plate 101. The rotating shaft 103a penetrates the support plate 101 to one end below it and is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 102.
[0035] The dial member 103 also includes a rotating disk 103b fixedly mounted on the upper end of the rotating shaft 103a, and a limiting disk 103c sleeved on the rotating shaft 103a and located at the top of the rotating disk 103b. The limiting disk 103c and the rotating disk 103b are fixedly connected by bolts, and the diameter of the limiting disk 103c is smaller than the diameter of the rotating disk 103b.
[0036] The rotating disk 103b is circular in shape, and a toggle pin 103d is fixedly installed at the edge of the rotating disk 103b by bolts. The toggle pin 103d is fixedly installed in the driving part of the rotating disk 103b which is larger than the limiting disk 103c. The limiting disk 103c is provided with an avoidance groove 103e, which is used to avoid the groove wheel 202a.
[0037] The groove wheel component 202 includes a groove wheel 202a fixedly mounted on the rotating rod 201, the groove wheel 202a is square, and a locking arc 202b and a pin groove 202c are provided in a circular array on the groove wheel 202a, and the locking arcs 202b provided in the circular array are respectively provided on the four sides of the square groove wheel 202a, and the pin groove 202c is provided at both ends of the two diagonals of the square groove wheel 202a, the locking arc 202b matches the arc edge of the limit plate 103c, the pin groove 202c matches the toggle pin 103d, and the avoidance groove 103e avoids the four corners of the square groove wheel 202a.
[0038] In this embodiment, the rotating disk 103b is arranged above the support plate 101, and the driving motor 102 drives the rotating shaft 103a to rotate, thereby driving the limiting disk 103c to rotate, and causing the driving pin 103d to rotate around the rotating shaft 103a as the axis. During the rotation process and when the driving pin 103d has not entered the pin groove 202c of the groove wheel 202a, the locking arc 202b and the arc edge of the limiting disk 103c match, so that the groove wheel 202a cannot rotate, that is, the position of the pin groove 202c is fixed, and when the driving pin 103d first enters the pin groove 202c of the groove wheel 202a, the driving pin 103d rotates with the rotating disk 103b in the pin groove 202c to push the groove wheel 202a to rotate, and when the driving pin 103d is disengaged from the pin groove 202c, the groove wheel 202a is fixed again, thereby achieving intermittent rotation.
[0039] Example 2, reference Figures 1 to 5, which is the second embodiment of the utility model. Different from the previous embodiment, this embodiment provides a light sensor 402 and a fill light strip 403, which solves the problem that succulents cannot receive enough light during long rainy days during the breeding process. It includes the intermittent rotation mechanism in the above embodiment, and also includes a placement plate 300 fixedly mounted on the rotating rod 201, and a frame 400 fixedly connected to the support plate 101. The placement plate 300 is provided with a ring array of placement grooves 301, and a control host 401 is arranged at the top of the frame 400.
[0040] In this embodiment, four placement grooves 301 are annularly opened on the placement plate 300, and the placement grooves 301 are used to place succulents. The placement plate 300 is fixedly installed on the top of the rotating rod 201. As the intermittent rotating mechanism performs intermittent movement, the succulents placed on the placement plate 300 can be exchanged in position so as to receive light evenly. The frame 400 is composed of an inverted U-shaped aluminum profile and an acrylic side panel. When the equipment is placed, the side of the acrylic needs to face the sun to improve the lighting of the succulents inside. The support plate 101 is fixed to the frame 400 of the inverted U-shaped aluminum profile through the mounting holes at both ends of the U-shape. After the intermittent rotating mechanism is installed, the drive motor 102 is suspended to prevent the drive motor 102 from being damaged by water leaking onto the bottom plate when watering the succulents.
[0041] A light sensor 402 is provided on the control host 401, and a fill light strip 403 is provided inside the frame 400, and the light sensor 402 and the fill light strip 403 are both electrically connected to the control host 401. The chip of the control host 401 adopts an ESP-32 control chip with a Wi-Fi module. When the utility model is in use, when the weather is bad and the succulents cannot receive sufficient sunlight, through the setting of the light sensor 402, the control host 401 will turn on the fill light strip 403 according to the data received by the light sensor 402, and fill light for the succulents on the placement plate 300.
[0042] The rest of the structure is the same as that of Example 1.
[0043] Example 3, reference Figures 1 to 5 , which is the third embodiment of the utility model. Different from the previous embodiment, this embodiment provides a humidity sensor 404, a water tank 500, a water pump 501 and a water replenishment nozzle 502, which solves the problem of being unable to grasp the watering timing when manually maintaining succulents. It includes a water tank 500 arranged on one side of the frame 400, and a water pump 501 is arranged on the water tank 500, a water replenishment nozzle 502 is fixedly installed on the top of the inner wall of the frame 400, and the water replenishment nozzle 502 and the water pump 501 are connected by a water pipe, the control host 401 is connected to the humidity sensor 404 by a wire, and the control host 401 and the water pump 501 are electrically connected.
[0044] In this embodiment, after the succulents are placed on the placement plate 300, the humidity sensor 404 is inserted into the soil of the succulents. The humidity sensor 404 monitors the soil humidity in real time, so as to replenish water in time. That is, when the humidity value monitored by the temperature sensor 404 reaches the value that needs to be replenished, the control host 401 starts the water pump 501, pumps out the water in the water tank 500, and waters the succulents through the water replenishment nozzle 502.
[0045] The rest of the structure is the same as that of Example 2.
