Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of morel production, in particular to a morel planting vertical incubator with a scattering light structure. Background Art
[0002] Morchella, also known as Morchella, belongs to the Ascomycetes, Pestozoales, Morchaceae, and Morchella genus. It is one of the world's most valuable and rare edible fungi and is recognized worldwide as a renowned and rare edible and medicinal mushroom. It has a unique aroma, rich nutrition, comprehensive functions, and significant dietary benefits. Rich in essential amino acids and organic germanium, it has kidney-tonifying, aphrodisiac, brain-tonifying, and mentally stimulating properties. Its significant anti-cancer properties, including its strong inhibitory effect on myoma cells, have earned it high edible and medicinal value.
[0003] As a precious edible fungus with high economic value, morels have a relatively special growth environment and strict requirements on temperature, humidity, light and other conditions. Therefore, artificial cultivation of morels requires not only precise environmental control, but also the maximization of cultivation efficiency and increase of yield within a limited space. However, most cultivation equipment on the current market is mainly designed for the cultivation of ordinary edible fungi and does not adequately support the growth characteristics of special fungi such as morels.
[0004] Most existing incubators use fixed nozzles or a single atomizer for humidity control, which cannot ensure uniform humidity distribution in all areas of the incubator. This design results in localized humidity being too high or too low, which is not conducive to the uniform growth of morels. It may cause poor mycelial growth in some areas and even infection by pathogens such as mold. For fungi like morels, which are sensitive to humidity fluctuations, the traditional fixed nozzle water spraying method is inefficient and cannot meet their dynamic humidity requirements at different growth stages.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 2 The utility model provides an embodiment: a vertical incubator for growing morels with a scattered light structure, comprising: a box body 1, inside which a culture basin 3 is slidably provided for cultivating morels; a water spraying assembly 5, which is arranged on the box body 1 and is used for evenly sprinkling water; a lighting assembly 6, which is arranged at the top of the box body 1 and is used to provide a light source for the morels; a moving assembly 7, which is arranged inside the box body 1 and is used to control the movement of the culture basin 3; the water spraying assembly 5 includes a water tank 501, the outer wall of the water tank 501 is fixed to the outer wall of the box body 1, and the upper surface of the water tank 501 is fixed with a A water pump 502 is provided, wherein a water pumping pipe 503 is fixed to the input end of the water pump 502, and the end of the water pumping pipe 503 is fixed to the inside of the water tank 501. A hose 504 is fixed to the output end of the water pump 502, and a diverter 505 is fixed to the end of the hose 504. A plurality of connecting pipes 506 are fixed to the bottom end of the diverter 505, and an atomizing nozzle 507 is fixed to the bottom end of each connecting pipe 506. An electric slide rail 509 is fixed to the inner wall of the box body 1, and an electric slider 508 slides inside the electric slide rail 509, and the outer wall of the electric slider 508 is fixed to the outer wall of the diverter 505.
[0033] The outer wall of the box body 1 is hingedly connected to a cabinet door 2, and a collection box 4 is provided below the culture basin 3, and the lower surface of the collection box 4 slides on the inner bottom of the box body 1;
[0034] The water spray assembly 5 further includes a fixing block 510 , the lower surface of which is fixed to the top of the box 1 , and the interior of the fixing block 510 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the hose 504 ;
[0035] Specifically, the water pump 502 is fixed on the upper surface of the water tank 501 and is connected to the water pumping pipe 503 through the input end. The end of the water pumping pipe 503 is deep into the water tank 501 to ensure that the water pump 502 can fully absorb the water source in the water tank 501 and effectively transport it to the output end. The output end of the water pump 502 is connected to the hose 504. The flexible hose 504 structure allows the water to flow smoothly and flexibly to the diverter 505. The diverter 505 is located at the end of the hose 504, and the water is evenly distributed to multiple connecting pipes 506 through the diversion pipeline. An atomizing nozzle 507 is provided at the end of each connecting pipe 506. The nozzle can atomize the water and evenly spray it inside the box body 1, thereby achieving an efficient wetting effect. The electric slide rail 509 is fixed to the inner wall of the box body 1, and the electric slider 508 inside the slide rail is driven by the motor 702 to slide back and forth on the track, thereby driving The diverter 505 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the slider can move left and right, so that the atomizing nozzle 507 can cover the entire culture area. Through this design, the water flow can dynamically adjust the spray range and direction to ensure that the humidity of the entire culture area is evenly distributed, avoiding local over-wetting or over-drying. The cabinet door 2 is connected to the outer wall of the box 1 by a hinge, which is convenient for opening for internal operations. The culture basin 3 is arranged in the box 1. A collection box 4 is provided under the culture basin 3 for collecting excess water and is slidably installed on the bottom of the box 1 to avoid water accumulation affecting the bacterial culture environment and further improve the stability of humidity control. In addition, a fixed block 510 is installed on the top of the box 1 for sliding connection with the outer wall of the hose 504 to fix and guide the hose 504 to prevent the hose 504 from swinging unstably due to vibration or pressure changes during the water spraying process, thereby ensuring the stability of the water spraying.
[0036] Reference Figure 5 , the lighting assembly 6 includes a sliding block 601, the outer wall of the sliding block 601 slides on the top of the box body 1, and a bracket 602 is fixed to the upper surface of the sliding block 601;
[0037] A lighting lamp 603 is fixed to the lower surface of the bracket 602, and a scattering plate 604 is slidably provided inside the bracket 602. The outer wall of the scattering plate 604 is arranged directly below the lighting lamp 603, and the outer wall of the lighting lamp 603 is arranged directly above the culture basin 3;
[0038] Specifically, the sliding fit structure between the sliding block 601 and the housing 1 ensures the flexible adjustment of the lighting system at different positions to meet the specific lighting requirements of different cultivation stages. A bracket 602 is fixed to the upper surface of the sliding block 601. The firm support of the bracket 602 allows the lighting lamp 603 to remain directly above the cultivation area, while providing reliable light source support. The lighting lamp 603 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the bracket 602. The lighting lamp 603 can provide sufficient and uniform lighting for the culture basin 3 to meet the suitable light environment required for the growth of morels. In addition, a slidable scattering plate 604 is designed inside the bracket 602. The scattering plate 604 is located directly above the lighting lamp 603. The multi-layer structure cleverly disperses the intensity of the light source so that the light can be evenly scattered to the cultivation area, avoiding the situation where strong light is concentrated in a specific area of the culture basin 3 and causes local light to be too strong or too weak. The sliding design of the scattering plate 604 further enhances the flexibility of light regulation. The operator can adjust the position of the scattering plate 604 to change the intensity and range of the light according to the light requirements of the morels at different growth stages, so that the light distribution of the entire culture area is more uniform. This design effectively prevents the problem of local overexposure caused by direct light source, while improving the coverage of light, ensuring that the morels in each culture basin 3 can obtain sufficient and uniform light, which is conducive to the healthy growth of the fungus. Through the multiple coordination of the sliding block 601, the bracket 602 and the scattering plate 604, not only the adjustability of the lighting angle and intensity is achieved, but also the stability and softness of the lighting system are enhanced, providing a more natural and suitable light environment for the morels, and ultimately improving the balance and yield of the overall planting.
[0039] Reference Figure 2 - Figure 4 , the moving component 7 includes a fixed plate 701, the outer wall of the fixed plate 701 is fixed to the inner wall of the box 1, and the outer wall of the fixed plate 701 is in contact with the outer wall of the culture basin 3;
[0040] A motor 702 is fixed inside the fixed plate 701, a gear 703 is fixed to the output end of the motor 702, a rack 704 is fixed to the outer wall of the culture basin 3, and the gear 703 and the rack 704 are meshed;
[0041] The moving assembly 7 includes a support plate 705, the inner wall of the support plate 705 is in contact with the outer wall of the culture basin 3, and a plurality of balls 706 are provided inside the support plate 705, and the outer wall of the balls 706 is in contact with the outer wall of the culture basin 3;
[0042] Specifically, the moving component 7 is stably fixed on the inner wall of the box body 1 through the structural design of the fixed plate 701, and fits with the outer wall of the culture basin 3, ensuring that the culture basin 3 is firmly placed and smoothly moved in the box body 1. The fixed plate 701 is equipped with a motor 702. The motor 702 provides power output through precise control, so that the gear 703 at the output end is engaged with the rack 704 fixed on the outer wall of the culture basin 3 to form a drive system. When the motor 702 is started, the gear 703 moves precisely linearly along the rack 704, thereby pushing the culture basin 3 to move in the box body 1, so that the culture basin 3 can be flexibly slid back and forth or adjusted laterally in the box body 1. This design allows the operator to easily move the culture basin 3 in or out of the box body 1, which is convenient for observing, maintaining or harvesting morels, greatly improving the convenience of operation.
[0043] In addition, in order to ensure the smooth movement of the culture basin 3, the moving component 7 also includes a support plate 705. The inner wall of the support plate 705 fits with the outer wall of the culture basin 3, so that the culture basin 3 is well supported laterally during the movement. A plurality of balls 706 are designed inside the support plate 705. The outer wall of the ball 706 is in close contact with the outer wall of the culture basin 3, thereby forming a low-friction rolling support structure. The rolling design of the ball 706 can significantly reduce the resistance of the culture basin 3 during movement, making the culture basin 3 slide more smoothly in the box 1, while reducing wear and extending the service life of the component. This ball 706 support structure cooperates with the drive system of the gear 703 and rack 704, which not only ensures the smooth movement of the culture basin 3, but also enhances the accuracy of the movement.
[0044] Working principle: When the device needs to be used, the water spray component 5 draws water from the water tank 501 through the water pump 502 and transmits it to the hose 504 through the suction pipe 503. After the water flows through the diverter 505, it is transported to the atomizing nozzle 507 through multiple connecting pipes 506 to realize atomized spraying. The electric slider 508 slides along the electric slide rail 509 in the box body 1, driving the diverter 505 and the atomizing nozzle 507 to move, so that the water spray component 5 can move back and forth inside the box body 1 to increase the water spray coverage and achieve a uniform wetting effect.
[0045] The lighting assembly 6 is located at the top of the box body 1 and slides on the top of the box body 1 through the sliding block 601. A lighting lamp 603 is fixed on the bracket 602, and a scattering plate 604 is installed directly above the lighting lamp 603. The sliding block 601 can adjust the position of the lighting lamp 603 and scatter the light for the second time through the scattering plate 604 to ensure that the light evenly covers the surface of the culture basin 3, improve the light distribution in the box body 1, make the light soft and not concentrated, which is conducive to the synchronous growth of morels.
[0046] The moving component 7 is used to control the movement of the culture basin 3. The fixed plate 701 is installed on the inner wall of the box body 1. The motor 702 is fixed inside the fixed plate 701. The output end of the motor 702 drives the rack 704 engaged with it through the gear 703. The rack 704 is fixed on the outer wall of the culture basin 3. The movement of the culture basin 3 is achieved by the cooperation of the gear 703 and the rack 704. In addition, a plurality of balls 706 are provided inside the support plate 705. These balls 706 fit with the outer wall of the culture basin 3, which can effectively reduce the friction of the culture basin 3 during movement, improve the stability and convenience of movement, and facilitate the operator to move the culture basin 3 out of the box body 1 for inspection or maintenance at any time.
