[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are used to illustrate this utility model.
[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a vegetable seed germination and breeding device includes: a cultivation box 20, which is a rectangular box with a hollow interior. The front wall of the cultivation box 20 can be flipped open. An electric cylinder 21 is fixedly connected to the top of the cavity of the cultivation box 20. A servo motor 26 is arranged below the electric cylinder 21. Both the electric cylinder 21 and the servo motor 26 are electrically connected to a power source. This is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.
[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the seed soaking structure is set inside the cavity of the incubator 20 for adaptive soaking of seeds with walls of different thicknesses. The seed soaking structure includes: a soaking box 30, a connecting plate 31, a holding plate 32, a drainage trough 33, a rotating frame 34, and a base frame 35. The soaking box 30 is snapped into the bottom of the cavity of the incubator 20. The connecting plate 31 is movably connected inside the cavity of the incubator 20. The holding plate 32 is symmetrically fixed to the upper and lower walls of the connecting plate 31. The drainage trough 33 is opened on the wall of the holding plate 32. The rotating frame 34 is fixedly connected to the top of the holding plate 32. The base frame 35 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the electric cylinder 21. The rotating frame 34 can be rotatably connected to the wall of the base frame 35. The servo motor 26 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the base frame 35. The cavity of the soaking box 30 is hollow and can soak seeds inside.
[0029] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the soaking box 30 is a rectangular box with a hollow interior and an open top. The bottom of the soaking box 30 has a gradually sloping surface that slopes backward. The connecting plate 31 is a rectangular plate, and the holding plate 32 is also a rectangular plate. The upper holding plate 32 is shorter than the lower holding plate 32. The top of the holding plate 32 has a horizontal wave shape. The drainage groove 33 is a round hole, and multiple drainage grooves 33 are evenly distributed on the wall of the holding plate 32. The rotating frame 34 is an inverted L-shaped rod, and the servo motor 26 can drive the rotating frame 34 to rotate. The base frame 35 is a U-shaped plate with the opening facing downward. The top of the rotating frame 34 can rotate along the opening of the base frame 35. The soaking structure also includes a limiting rod 36, a cultivation plate 37, and a connecting rod 3. 8. Limiting rod 36 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the top of soaking box 30, culture plate 37 is slidably connected to the top of soaking box 30, connecting rod 38 is fixedly connected to the top of culture plate 37, limiting rod 36 is rectangular rod, the rear wall of culture plate 37 can contact the front wall of limiting rod 36, connecting rod 38 is rectangular rod, culture plate 37 is arranged parallel to the upper and lower walls of connecting rod 38, the length of the lower culture plate 37 is less than that of the upper culture plate 37, the width of culture plate 37 is the same as that of holding plate 32, culture plate 37 is a hollow rectangular box with open rear wall and top, the bottom of the cavity of culture plate 37 is a longitudinal wave-shaped surface, and the height of connecting rod 38 is the same as that of connecting plate 31.
[0030] In practical use, first open the front wall of the incubator 20, then add nutrient solution for soaking seeds into the cavity of the soaking box 30, and then place the seeds to be soaked into the nutrient solution. Before placing the seeds, ensure that the bottom plate 32 is at the lowest point in the cavity of the soaking box 30. After placing the seeds, close the front wall of the incubator 20 and turn on the power of the blower 22. The blower 22 can slowly blow air into the cavity of the incubator 20 through the air inlet 24 via the air pipe 23. The air blown out of the air inlet 24 by the air pipe 23 can blow backward towards the seeds in the cavity of the soaking box 30, causing the seeds in the nutrient solution to move towards the rear of the cavity of the soaking box 30. As the seeds move in the cavity of the soaking box 30, their state in the nutrient solution will vary due to differences in their wall thickness. The thicker the seed wall, the more the seeds will move towards the rear of the cavity of the soaking box 30. The thicker the seed wall, the lower it will be located in the soaking box 30 cavity. The thinner the seed wall, the more it will float on the nutrient solution. As the seed moves backward in the nutrient solution, it will move to the wall of the corresponding holding plate 32. Then, the electric cylinder 21 controls the partial retraction after the required soaking time. After several hours, the length is retracted again. After the second retraction, the upper holding plate 32 will be higher than the upper cultivation plate 37, and the lower holding plate 32 will be higher than the lower cultivation plate 37. At this time, the servo motor 26 can drive the rotating frame 34 to rotate forward. The rotating frame 34 can drive the holding plate 32 to tilt synchronously. The seeds on the top of the holding plate 32 will roll forward to the top of the corresponding cultivation plate 37 due to the tilt of the holding plate 32. At this time, the cultivation soil is placed on the top of the cultivation plate 37 beforehand to cultivate the soaked seeds.
[0031] In summary, by setting up a soaking structure, seeds with different wall thicknesses can be automatically adapted to the required soaking time. The soaking structure utilizes the different states of seeds with different wall thicknesses in the 30 chambers of the soaking box to control the soaking time in the nutrient solution, ensuring that the seeds are soaked within the optimal soaking time. Therefore, this solution can automatically soak each seed within the required optimal time, thereby ensuring that each seed has the best soaking and germination quality.
[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the walls of the incubator 20 are also provided with a ventilation structure, which includes a fan 22, a blower 23, an air inlet 24 and an exhaust outlet 25. The fans 22 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the two side walls of the incubator 20. The blower 23 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the top of each fan 22. The air inlets 24 are symmetrically opened on the two side walls of the incubator 20. The exhaust outlet 25 is opened on the rear wall of the incubator 20. The blower 23 on each side is located at the air inlet 24. The blower 23 is a hollow tube. The opening of the blower 23 on each side is connected to the air inlet 24. The air inlet 24 is located at the front of the side wall of the incubator 20. The exhaust outlet 25 is a circular groove. Multiple exhaust outlets 25 are evenly opened on the wall of the incubator 20.
[0033] In actual use, when the power of the fan 22 is turned on, the fan 22 can blow air through the air inlet 24 toward the seeds in the soaking box 30, and then the air in the incubation box 20 will be discharged from the exhaust port 25.
[0034] In summary, by setting up a ventilation structure, not only can the seeds be moved to the rear position within the soaking box 30, but the cultivation box 20 can also have a good ventilation effect, thereby promoting seed germination.
[0035] Working principle: First, open the front wall of the incubator 20. Then, add nutrient solution for soaking seeds into the cavity of the soaking box 30. Next, place the seeds to be soaked into the nutrient solution. Before placing the seeds, ensure that the bottom plate 32 is at the lowest point in the cavity of the soaking box 30. After placing the seeds, close the front wall of the incubator 20 and turn on the power of the blower 22. The blower 22 can slowly blow air into the cavity of the incubator 20 through the air inlet 24 via the air pipe 23. The air blown from the air inlet 24 by the air pipe 23 can blow the seeds in the cavity of the soaking box 30 backward, causing the seeds in the nutrient solution to move towards the rear of the cavity of the soaking box 30. As the seeds move in the cavity of the soaking box 30, their state in the nutrient solution will vary depending on the thickness of their seed walls. Seeds with thicker walls will be located at the bottom of the cavity of the soaking box 30, while seeds with thinner walls will float on the surface of the nutrient solution. The seeds will move backward in the nutrient solution and reach the wall of the corresponding holding plate 32. Then, the electric cylinder 21 will control the seed soaking time to partially retract the length. After several hours, the length will be retracted again. After the second retraction, the upper holding plate 32 will be higher than the upper cultivation plate 37, and the lower holding plate 32 will be higher than the lower cultivation plate 37. At this time, the servo motor 26 can drive the rotating frame 34 to rotate forward. The rotating frame 34 can drive the holding plate 32 to tilt synchronously. The seeds on the top of the holding plate 32 will roll forward to the top of the corresponding cultivation plate 37 due to the tilt of the holding plate 32. At this time, the cultivation soil is placed on the top of the cultivation plate 37 beforehand to cultivate the soaked seeds. After the seed cultivation is completed, the front wall of the cultivation box 20 is opened, and the cultivation plate 37 is directly taken out from the cavity of the cultivation box 20 and the seeds on the wall of the cultivation plate 37 are transplanted.

Furthermore, under the teachings of this utility model, these features and embodiments can be modified to adapt to specific situations and materials without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model.
