DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] 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.

[0022] Combination Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the embodiment of the utility model provides a bean sprout generator, including a first container 1, a second container 2, and a third container 3. The first container 1 is detachably connected to the second container 2, and the second container 2 is detachably connected to the third container 3; the first container 1 and the second container 2 are both black opaque containers, and the third container 3 is a transparent container. The second container 2 is provided with first through holes 4 at the bottom, and the third container 3 is provided with water permeable holes 5 at the bottom. The third container 3 is used to hold clean water for sprouting bean sprouts, and the water permeable holes 5 are convenient for dripping water into the second container 2. The third container 3 is a transparent container, which is convenient for observation. The process of water descending to the third container 3; the diameter of the first through hole 4 at the bottom of the second container 2 is smaller than the diameter of the beans, which can ensure that the beans in the second container 2 will not fall out; a circle of first air holes 8 is arranged on the upper end of the container wall of the first container 1, and a circle of second air holes 9 is arranged on the upper end of the container wall of the second container 2; the bean sprout generator also includes a pressing plate 6 and a sponge layer 7 for pressing on the beans in cooperation with the second container 2, and the pressing plate 6 is provided with a second through hole 10. The second through hole 10 and the sponge layer 7 on the pressing plate 6 facilitate the water dripping from the third container 3 to evenly penetrate into the beans in the second container 2.

[0023] Specifically, the pressing plate 6 can be made of metal, such as a steel plate, which is not easy to rust; the pressing plate 6 acts as a weight to press the beans to grow bean sprouts.

[0024] As a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, the height of the first container 1, the second container 2, and the third container 3 connected together is less than or equal to 26 cm.

[0025] As another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the height of the first container 1, the second container 2, and the third container 3 connected together is in the range of 16 to 24 cm.

[0026] As another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the diameters of the first container 1, the second container 2, and the third container 3 are the same, which are all less than or equal to 10 cm.

[0027] It should be noted that the height of the first container 1, the second container 2, and the third container 3 connected together and the diameters of the first container 1, the second container 2, and the third container 3 can be specifically set according to the actual needs of the user, and different amounts of bean sprouts required for consumption can be produced, not limited to the above-mentioned size values.

[0028] In summary, the utility model has a simple structure and is easy to use, and is extremely suitable for office workers and family members to grow bean sprouts, especially for white-collar workers working in offices, and can grow the required amount of bean sprouts for consumption.

[0029] Combined with the technical scheme and drawings of a bean sprout generator provided by the embodiment of the utility model, the operation steps are described:

[0030] ①. First, put the beans into the first container 1, pour clean water into the first container 1, and soak the beans for 6-12 hours;

[0031] ②. Then, pour out the water in the first container 1, leaving the beans; put the soaked beans into the second container 2; then put the sponge layer 7 on top, and put the pressure plate 6 on the sponge layer 7;

[0032] ③. Then install the first container 1, the second container 2, and the third container 3 together in sequence. Figure 1 As shown;

[0033] ④. Finally, pour clean water into the third container 3. When the water in the third container 3 is gone, it means that the water has flowed into the first container 1 through the second container 2. Then pour the water in the first container 1 back into the third container 3 to keep the beans in the second container 2 in a moist environment required for bean sprouts. Under normal circumstances, bean sprouts will grow in 5-7 days.

[0034] The bean sprouts grown by the bean sprout generator of the utility model are different from the bean sprouts on the market that are added with chemical substances. The bean sprout generator of the utility model can grow bean sprouts by using only clean water without any additives; the user can experience the fun of the homemade bean sprout process in daily life and can taste the fresh homemade bean sprouts.
