[0023] The adjustment mechanism 5 includes a limiting rod 501. The limiting rod 501 is connected to the top of the base 1. Sliding sleeves 502 are installed on both the left and right sides of the planting box 2. A second electric push rod 503 is installed on the top of the limiting rod 501. A baffle 504 is movably installed on the top of the base 1. An insert rod 505 is connected to the outside of the baffle 504. A limiting groove 506 is opened inside the base 1. A limiting plate 507 is movably installed inside the limiting groove 506. A pull rod 508 is connected to the outside of the limiting plate 507.

[0024] exist Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the middle, there are three planting boxes 2, which are arranged longitudinally, and a placement platform 6 is installed on the top of the limiting rod 501.

[0025] Specifically, the water tank 7 is fixed by the placement platform 6, and the water in the water tank 7 can irrigate the plants in the three planting boxes 2.

[0026] exist Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the middle, a water tank 7 is fixedly installed on the top of the placement platform 6, and there are three sets of first electric push rods 3, which are located on the outside of the three planting boxes 2 respectively.

[0027] Specifically, water tank 7 injects water into water collection box 4 through water pipe, which is a corrugated flexible hose.

[0028] exist Figure 1 and Figure 3In the middle, the three sets of first electric push rods 3 are respectively connected to the three water collection boxes 4. The bottom of the water collection box 4 is equipped with a nozzle 8, which is located on the top of the planting box 2.

[0029] Specifically, the first electric push rod 3 drives the water collection box 4 to rise and fall, enabling the sprinkler head 8 to irrigate vegetation at different heights.

[0030] exist Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the middle, the rear side of the water tank 7 is connected to three water guide pipes. The three water guide pipes are connected to three water collection boxes 4 on the side away from the water tank 7. There are two limit rods 501 and two electric push rods 503.

[0031] Specifically, the various structures of the adjustment mechanism 5 work together to facilitate the adjustment of the spacing between the planting boxes 2, preventing the spacing between the planting boxes 2 from being too small and affecting the growth of the vegetation.

[0032] exist Figure 3 and Figure 4 In the middle, two sliding sleeves 502 are respectively sleeved on the outside of two limiting rods 501, and the opposite sides of the two second electric push rods 503 are respectively connected to the opposite sides of the two baffles 504.

[0033] Specifically, the sliding sleeve 502 slides on the limiting rod 501, thereby facilitating the adjustment of the spacing between the three planting boxes 2.

[0034] exist Figure 3 and Figure 5 In the middle, the sliding sleeve 502 has a slot 9 inside, the side of the insertion rod 505 away from the baffle 504 extends into the slot 9, and the sides of the two pull rods 508 away from the two limit plates 507 are respectively connected to the two baffles 504, and the number of insertion rods 505 is not less than ten.

[0035] In summary, this planting structure suitable for horticultural therapy uses a limiting rod 501 to limit the three planting boxes 2. The sliding sleeve 502 slides on the limiting rod 501, facilitating the adjustment of the distance between the three planting boxes 2. A second electric push rod 503 is provided, and the controller drives the second electric push rod 503 to extend and retract, causing the two baffles 504 to move in opposite or relative directions, thereby causing the insertion rod 505 to move synchronously. When the insertion rod 505 enters the slot 9, the sliding sleeve 502 is locked to prevent the planting box 2 from shaking. A limiting plate 507 is provided, and when the baffle 503 moves, the pull rod 508 slides synchronously inside the limiting groove 506, thereby keeping the baffle 504 stable. The first electric push rod 3 drives the water collection box 4 to rise and fall, thereby causing the sprinkler head 8 to rise and fall synchronously. The controller drives the booster pump to start, and the water in the water tank 7 enters the sprinkler head 8 through the water pipe to irrigate the vegetation.

[0036] Furthermore, during use, as the vegetation grows, the position of the planting box 2 needs to be adjusted. At this time, the second electric push rod 503 drives the two baffles 504 to move in opposite directions, causing the insertion rod 505 to exit the slot 9. At this time, the user pushes the planting box 2 up or down. When it reaches the appropriate position, the controller drives the two second electric push rods 503 to retract, causing the pull rod 508 to move into the limiting groove 506. At this time, the two insertion rods 505 can be inserted into the slot 9. When it is necessary to irrigate the vegetation, the controller drives the booster pump to start, and the water in the water tank 7 enters the nozzle 8 through the water pipe to irrigate the vegetation.

[0037] All electrical components mentioned in this article are connected to external controllers and 220V AC mains power. The controllers can be conventional known devices such as computers. The specific models and specifications of each device mentioned in this article need to be selected and determined according to the actual specifications of the device. The specific selection and calculation methods adopt existing technologies in this field, so they will not be described in detail here.
