[0002] In existing technologies, most cultivation racks for corn seed cultivation are multi-layered vertical structures, which can effectively reduce the floor space occupied by the cultivation rack and improve cultivation efficiency. However, the vertical structure can easily block sunlight, resulting in insufficient light for the lower layer of crops and affecting their normal growth. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To address the problem of insufficient sunlight for lower-level crops, this application provides a cultivation rack for maize seed breeding.
[0004] This application provides a cultivation rack for corn seed breeding, which adopts the following technical solution:
[0005] A cultivation rack for corn seed breeding includes a frame, a support plate, and a seedling box. The frame includes a connecting plate, an adjustable frame, and a fixed frame. The connecting plate is located at the top of the fixed frame. The adjustable frame is hinged to the connecting plate on the side away from the fixed frame. The bottom of the adjustable frame has lifting legs. The fixed frame has a sliding mechanism, including a slide rail, a slider, and a connecting rod. Multiple support plates are arranged along the length of the fixed frame, with each support plate having a corresponding slider at both ends. Multiple slide rails are provided on the fixed frame, each corresponding to a slider. The support plates are slidably connected to the slide rails via the sliders. Multiple oblong holes are formed along the length of the adjustable frame. The connecting rod is connected to the support plate and slides and rotates within the oblong holes. The seedling box is placed on the support plate.
[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, during the corn seed cultivation process, the adjustable support is rotated, allowing the waist-shaped hole to engage with the connecting rod, which in turn drives the support plate and slider to slide along the slide rail, resulting in a stepped arrangement of multiple support plates. Seedling boxes are then placed sequentially for cultivation. The stepped distribution of the multiple support plates increases the light exposure area, promotes crop growth, and the multi-layered structure fully utilizes the three-dimensional space for crop cultivation, effectively improving cultivation efficiency. When storing, the adjustable support can be folded down, reducing the floor space occupied and saving storage space. The lifting legs maintain the overall balance of the cultivation rack after the support plates slide. The movable seedling boxes are placed directly on the support plates, facilitating movement and replacement, and also making it convenient for later seedling removal.
[0007] Optionally, a spraying mechanism is provided on the bracket, the spraying mechanism including a water tank, a water pump, a spraying pipe and a nozzle; the water pump is installed on the bracket, the nozzle is set on the slide rail through the spraying pipe, the water tank, the water pump and the nozzle are connected through the spraying pipe, and the water inlet of the spraying pipe is placed in the water tank.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the seedling box can be automatically irrigated by sprinklers, eliminating the need for manual watering, saving time and effort; the sprinkler system can make watering more even, effectively maintain soil moisture, and save water.
[0009] Optionally, the spray pipe located above the support plate is a rigid pipe, while the spray pipe placed in the water tank is a flexible pipe.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, when the support plate is extended or retracted, the rigid sprinkler pipes can rotate simultaneously with the support plate without affecting the use of the sprinkler mechanism; the sprinkler pipes placed in the water tank use flexible pipes to facilitate complete water pumping and do not affect the movement of the water tank.
[0011] Optionally, a nozzle steering mechanism is also provided, which includes a rack, a gear, a central shaft, and a rotating frame; the rack is disposed on the support plate; the gear is fixedly connected to the central shaft and rotates on the slide rail via the central shaft; the rotating frame is connected to the central shaft; and the spray pipe is disposed on the rotating frame.

[0030] The following combination Figures 1 to 4 This application will be described in further detail.
[0031] This embodiment discloses a cultivation rack for corn seed cultivation.
[0032] Reference Figures 1 to 4 A cultivation rack for corn seed cultivation includes a support frame 1, a multi-layer support plate 2 slidably mounted on the support frame 1, a sliding mechanism 4 disposed between the support frame 1 and the support plate 2, and seedling boxes 3 placed on the support plate 2. When using the cultivation rack for seedling cultivation, the support frame 1 is first adjusted so that the multi-layer support plate 2 is arranged in a stepped manner, and then multiple seedling boxes 3 are placed on the multi-layer support plate 2. This can reduce the shading of the upper support plate 2 and increase the light area of the lower crop.
[0033] The support frame 1 includes a connecting plate 11, an adjustable support 12, and a fixed support 13. The connecting plate 11 is horizontally positioned on top of the fixed support 13. The adjustable support 12 is hinged to the side of the connecting plate 11 away from the fixed support 13. The support plate 2 is connected between the fixed support 13 and the adjustable support 12 through a sliding mechanism 4. The unfolding and retracting states of the cultivation rack can be adjusted by rotating the adjustable support 12.
[0034] Baffles 21 are provided on both sides of the support plate 2 to prevent the seedling box 3 from sliding inward or outward and falling, causing unnecessary losses and ensuring the safety of the staff; the support plate 2 is set as a frame structure or a hollow structure, so that when watering the corn seeds in the seedling box 3, excess water can flow out from the gaps or holes on the support plate 2; the width of the support plate 2 is less than the lateral spacing of the adjustable bracket 12, so that the support plate 2 can slide back and forth in the adjustable bracket 12; the distance between every two support plates 2 is 70-80cm.
[0035] The sliding mechanism 4 includes sliders 41 at both ends of each support plate 2 and slide rails 42 corresponding to the sliders 41 on the fixed bracket 13. The axis of the slide rails 42 is parallel to the side of the connecting plate 11. The support plate 2 is slidably connected to the slide rails 42 through the sliders 41 and moves horizontally toward the adjustable bracket 12. Multiple waist-shaped holes 121 are opened along the length of the adjustable bracket 12. Each support plate 2 is provided with a connecting rod 43 fixedly connected to both ends of the sliders 41. The axis of the connecting rods 43 is perpendicular to the axis of the slide rails 42. The connecting rods 43 slide and rotate within the waist-shaped holes 121. When the adjustable bracket 12 is rotated, the waist-shaped holes 121 cooperate with the connecting rods 43, causing the support plate 2 and the sliders 41 to slide along the slide rails 42, so that the multi-layer support plates 2 are arranged in a stepped manner.
[0036] A spraying mechanism 5 is also provided on the slide rail 42. The spraying mechanism 5 includes a water pump 52 installed on the fixed bracket 13, a spraying pipe 53 installed on the slide rail 42, and a nozzle 54 connected to the spraying pipe 53. The spraying pipe 53 is connected to the water tank 51, the water pump 52 and the nozzle 54 in sequence. The water inlet of the spraying pipe 53 is placed in the water tank 51. The spraying pipe 53 is located above the support plate 2 and corresponds to the seedling box 3 on the support plate 2.
[0037] To ensure the water spray direction aligns with the movement direction of the support plate 2, a nozzle steering mechanism 6 is also provided. The nozzle steering mechanism 6 includes a rack 61. The rack 61 is located on the side of the support plate 2 away from the ground, with its teeth facing the connecting plate 11. An mounting groove 421 is provided on the slide rail 42 at a position corresponding to the rack 61. A central shaft 63 rotates within the mounting groove 421. A gear 62 is coaxially and fixedly connected to the central shaft 63, and the gear 62 rotates within the mounting groove 421 via the central shaft 63. A rotating frame 64 is fixedly connected to the central shaft 63 through the slide rail 42. The rotating frame 64 is L-shaped, and the end of the rotating frame 64 not connected to the central shaft 63 is fixedly connected to the spray pipe 53. The spray pipe 53 rotates through the central shaft 63... The movable frame 64 rotates on the side of the slide rail 42 near the lower support plate 2, and the connecting plate 11 is also fixedly connected to the side wall near the support plate 2, which is used to spray and irrigate the seedling box 3 under the connecting plate 11. When the support plate 2 moves towards the adjustable bracket 12, the rack 61 also moves in the same direction, driving the gear 62 and the central shaft 63 fixedly connected to the gear 62 to rotate in opposite directions. The rotating frame 64 fixedly connected to the central shaft 63 also rotates, and the spray pipe 53 and the nozzle 54 fixedly connected to the rotating frame 64 also rotate. The spray direction of the nozzle 54 also changes at the same time, so that the spray direction is always towards the seedling box 3, ensuring timely and uniform water supply to the crops.
[0038] To ensure that the spray pipe 53 rotates when the rotating frame 64 rotates, the spray pipe 53 located above the support plate 2 is a rigid pipe. When the support plate 2 moves toward the adjustable bracket 12, the rack 61 on the support plate 2 also moves toward the adjustable bracket 12. The rigid spray pipe 53 can rotate with the support plate 2 at the same time without affecting the use of the spray mechanism 5. The spray pipe 53 placed in the water tank 51 is a flexible pipe, which facilitates complete water pumping and does not affect the movement of the water tank 51.
[0039] To maintain the balance of the cultivation rack, a lifting support leg 7 is provided at the bottom of the adjustable support 12. The lifting support leg 7 includes a lifting rod 71, which is sleeved inside the adjustable support 12. An elastic button 72 is provided on the lifting rod 71. A positioning hole 122 corresponding to the elastic button 72 is provided at the bottom of the adjustable support 12. When the support plate 2 is pulled out and distributed in a stepped manner, the length of the lifting rod 71 can be increased by pressing the elastic button 72. Then, the elastic button 72 is locked in the positioning hole 122 to achieve the length adjustment of the adjustable support 12.
[0040] To facilitate storage and prevent the bracket 1 from unfolding during storage, a locking structure 8 is provided between the adjustable bracket 12 and the slide rail 42. The locking structure 8 includes a buckle 81 and a retaining ring 82. The buckle 81 is rotatably connected to the slide rail 42, and the retaining ring 82 is fixedly connected to the adjustable bracket 12. In use, the buckle 81 on the slide rail 42 is fastened to the retaining ring 82 on the adjustable bracket 12.
[0041] Drainage holes are provided at the bottom of the seedling box 3 to drain excess water from the seedling box 3.
[0042] To prevent the cultivation racks from becoming unsightly and damaged due to rust, they are made of stainless steel, which is sturdy, durable, readily available, and has a longer service life.
[0043] To facilitate the movement of the cultivation rack, at least four casters 9 with brakes are installed at the bottom of the support frame 1, allowing for easy movement by a person, saving time and effort. The casters 9 can move in all directions, making it convenient to change direction during movement.
[0044] The implementation principle of a cultivation rack for corn seed cultivation in this application embodiment is as follows: During the corn seed cultivation process, by rotating the adjustable support 12, the waist-shaped hole 121 cooperates with the connecting rod 43, driving the support plate 2 and the slider 41 to slide along the slide rail 42, so that the multi-layer support plate 2 is arranged in a stepped manner, which is conducive to increasing the light area and promoting crop growth; During the crop growth process, the sprinkler mechanism 5 is used for watering and irrigation, and the nozzle turning mechanism 6 is set to ensure uniform watering. When the support plate 2 moves in the direction of the adjustable support 12, the rack 61 also moves in the same direction, driving the gear 62 and the central shaft 63 fixedly connected to the gear 62 to rotate in opposite directions. The rotating frame 64 fixedly connected to the central shaft 63 also rotates, and the sprinkler pipe 53 and the nozzle 54 fixed on the rotating frame 64 also rotate. The water spraying direction of the nozzle 54 also changes at the same time, so that the water spraying direction is always towards the direction of the seedling box 3, ensuring timely and uniform water supply to the crop.
[0045] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
