Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of melon cultivation technology, and in particular to a melon cultivation support. Background Technology
[0002] Melon is an annual vine-like herbaceous plant belonging to the Cucurbitaceae family and the Cucurbita genus. Its leaves are heart-shaped, and its flowers are unisexual, yellow, monoecious, or hermaphroditic. The melon is spherical, oval, elliptical, or flattened-round, with a yellow, white, or green rind or various markings. The flesh is green, white, reddish-brown, or orange-yellow, crisp or soft, fragrant and sweet. It thrives in high temperatures, dryness, and ample sunshine. Originally from the tropics, it is widely cultivated throughout my country, with many varieties. Melons from North and Northwest China are particularly sweet, while those from humid regions are more watery and less flavorful. It is one of the best summer fruits. The shape and color of the fruit vary depending on the variety. It is fragrant, has a smooth rind, and off-white seeds. Widely cultivated in temperate to tropical regions, it is grown throughout my country, resulting in numerous varieties and significant fruit variations. It can be divided into several varieties and, in horticulture, belongs to several strains. Among them, the sweet melon, cantaloupe, and white melon each belong to different varieties or strains.
[0003] As disclosed in the utility model patent with authorization announcement number CN219919819U, a melon planting support is provided with two adjustable support rods symmetrically and detachably through two sets of fastening mechanisms; multiple bearing plates are detachably mounted on the two adjustable support rods; the multiple bearing plates and the two adjustable support rods in this melon planting support are all detachable, which facilitates transportation and greatly saves transportation space, and the melon planting support is very simple and quick to disassemble and assemble.
[0004] The existing technology still has the following problems when used:
[0005] During the growth of melons, some herbivorous insects such as fruit flies and ladybugs will eat the leaves, thus affecting the quality of the melons. This device does not take preventive measures against this, thereby reducing its functionality. In addition, melons are greatly affected by sunlight during their growth. However, the angle of the sun changes over time. After the entire support is installed on the ground, the angle of the support is fixed, which reduces the flexibility of adjusting the support and thus reduces the utilization rate of sunlight. Utility Model Content
[0006] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a melon planting support frame, which solves the problem of reducing the impact of herbivorous insects on the growth of melons by setting up a hollow box, a hollow tube and an opening.
[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a melon planting support, including a base, a turntable above the base, and a deflection component between the turntable and the base. A hollow box is symmetrically provided on the top surface of the turntable, and a hollow tube is symmetrically connected to the top surfaces of the two hollow boxes. Multiple openings are provided on the surface of the hollow tube. Two fixing rods are symmetrically connected to the top surface of the turntable. A support plate for melon planting is fixedly connected to the top of the fixing rods. Uprights are provided at the four corners of the top surface of the support plate.
[0008] Preferably, the deflection assembly consists of a connecting rod, a slider, and a groove. The top surface of the base has a groove, and sliders are symmetrically arranged inside the groove. The top surface of the slider is fixedly connected to the connecting rod, which extends upward a certain distance and the extended end is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the turntable.
[0009] Preferably, the top surface of the turntable has multiple positioning holes, and the bottom surface of the base is fixedly connected with multiple grounding rods.
[0010] Preferably, the top surface of the base has multiple insertion holes, and a positioning rod is inserted between the insertion holes and the positioning hole.

[0023] To make the technical means, creative features, and achieved objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model is further described below with reference to specific embodiments. However, the following embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and not all of them. Other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments described in the implementation are all within the protection scope of this utility model without creative effort.
[0024] Example
[0025] Please refer to Figure 1 As shown, this utility model provides a melon planting support, including a base 1. Ground-inserting rods 2 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the base 1 to secure the support body to the ground. A turntable 4 is provided above the base 1. Multiple fixing rods 5 are fixedly connected to the top surface of the turntable 4. A support plate 11 for planting melons is fixedly connected to the top of each fixing rod 5. A deflection assembly for adjusting the angle of the turntable 4 is provided between the turntable 4 and the base 1. The deflection assembly consists of a connecting rod 3, a slider 14, and a groove 7. The slide groove 7 is opened on the top surface of the base 1. Slider 14 is symmetrically arranged inside the slide groove 7, and the slide groove 7 and the slider 14 are slidably connected. The top surface of the two sliders 14 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 3, and the top end of the connecting rod 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the turntable 4. The top surface of the turntable 4 is provided with multiple positioning holes 8, and the top surface of the base 1 is provided with multiple insertion holes 9. A positioning rod 6 is inserted between the insertion hole 9 and the positioning hole 8. When the positioning rod 6 is inserted into the insertion hole 9 and the positioning hole 8, the turntable 4 can be restricted to stop rotating.
[0026] When using this device, insert it into the designated position using the insertion rod 2. When it is necessary to adjust the angle of the turntable 4 and the upper support plate 11, the positioning rod 6 can be pulled out from the insertion hole 9 and the positioning hole 8. Then, rotate the turntable 4. The turntable 4 drives the slider 14 to slide inside the slide groove 7 through the connecting rod 3, thereby increasing the stability of the turntable 4 when rotating. When the turntable 4 rotates, it can drive the upper support plate 11 to deflect, thereby adjusting the angle of the support plate 11. This ensures that the melons planted on the support plate 11 are always facing the sunlight, increasing the utilization rate of sunlight and benefiting the growth of melons.
[0027] As a further implementation of this embodiment, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, uprights 19 are provided at the four corners of the top surface of the support plate 11. Hollow boxes 10 are symmetrically provided on the top surface of the turntable 4. The interior of the hollow boxes 10 is hollow, and a door cover is connected to one side of the hollow boxes 10 by a hinge. By opening the door cover, insect repellent items can be placed inside the hollow boxes 10. Hollow tubes 12 are symmetrically connected on the top surfaces of the two hollow boxes 10. The hollow tubes 12 extend upwards for a certain distance, and multiple openings 13 are provided on the surface of the extended end. When in use, the insect repellent aromatherapy is placed inside the hollow boxes 10. At this time, the scent of the insect repellent aromatherapy will enter the interior of the hollow tubes 12. Through the openings 13 on the surface of the hollow tubes 12, the scent of the insect repellent aromatherapy will diffuse to the surrounding area of the support, thereby controlling the insect repellent around the support. To create an insect-repelling area and reduce the impact of herbivorous insects on the growth of melons, the top surface of the support plate 11 has multiple holes. The interior of these holes has screw holes 16 and mounting holes 15. The top ends of the hollow tube 12 and the upright 19 are fixedly connected to the insertion rods 18, and the size of the insertion rods 18 corresponds to the mounting holes 15. The bottom ends of the hollow tube 12 and the upright 19 are fixedly connected to the screws 17. When installing the bracket, the screws 17 at the bottom ends of the hollow tube 12 and the upright 19 can be screwed into the screw holes 16 on the top surface of the support plate 11, and the insertion rods 18 can be inserted into the mounting holes 15 on the bottom surface of another support plate 11. This allows for the installation and overlap of the support plate 11, the upright 19 and the hollow tube 12.
[0028] It is worth noting that the hollow tube 12 is fixedly connected to the two ends of the insertion rod 18 and the screw rod 17. Its interior is hollow and not solid. This ensures that the interiors of multiple hollow tubes 12 are connected after they are overlapped, which facilitates the diffusion of insect repellent odor. The bottom support plate 11 of this device is fixedly connected to the fixing rod 5, and its top surface is provided with screw holes 16.
[0029] When using this device further, open the door on one side of the hollow box 10, place the insect-repelling aromatherapy inside the hollow box 10, and close the door. Since the hollow box 10 is sealed, the scent of the insect-repelling aromatherapy will rise and enter the hollow tube 12, and then drift outward through the opening 13 on the surface of the hollow tube 12. This can create an insect-repelling area around the support, greatly reducing the impact of herbivorous insects on melon production.
[0030] Specific working principle: The device is installed in the designated position using the ground-inserting rod 2. When it is necessary to adjust the angle of the support plate 11, the positioning rod 6 can be pulled out, and the turntable 4 can be rotated. The turntable 4 drives the slider 14 to slide inside the slide groove 7 through the connecting rod 3, thereby increasing the stability of the turntable 4 during rotation. When the turntable 4 rotates, it can drive the support plate 11 above to deflect, thereby facilitating the adjustment of the angle of planting melons to align with the sunlight, which is beneficial to melon production and increases the flexibility of the device. The screw 17 at the bottom of the upright rod 19 is screwed into the screw hole 16 on the top surface of the support plate 11 to fix the upright rod. After the four uprights 19 are fixedly installed on the top surface of the support plate 11, insert the mounting hole 15 on the bottom surface of the next support plate 11 into the insertion rod 18 at the top of the upright 19 (the installation method of the hollow tube 12 is the same as above). Repeat the above operation to connect and install the bracket. Place the insect repellent incense into the hollow box 10. The insect repellent gas will enter the interior of the hollow tube 12 and then diffuse to the surrounding area of the support plate 11 through the opening 13 on the surface of the hollow tube 12. This can form an insect repellent area around the bracket, which greatly reduces the impact of herbivorous insects on the growth of melons.
