Detailed Implementation

[0019] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs; the terminology used herein in the specification of the application is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application; the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, in the specification, claims, and foregoing drawings of this application are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. The terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, or foregoing drawings of this application are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a particular order.

[0020] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of this application. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0021] This utility model embodiment provides a cultivation box for edible fungi, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, the edible fungus cultivation box includes: a box body 1, a drawer 2 inside the box body 1, a breathable plate 3 inside the drawer 2 for holding edible fungus cultivation bags; an exhaust pipe 4 fixedly connected to the box body 1; a purification box 5 and a settling box 8 installed on the box body 1 for purifying the air entering the box body 1, the purification box 5 for holding activated carbon material, and the settling box 8 for holding water; a removable sealing cover 6 installed on the purification box 5, an air supply pipe 7 fixedly connected to the sealing cover 6, the air outlet of the air supply pipe 7 being connected to the box body 1; and an air guiding mechanism installed on the box body 1 and the settling box 8 for guiding air.

[0022] In this embodiment, the box 1 serves as the main structure of the entire cultivation box, providing a relatively enclosed and independent growth space for edible fungi. It integrates components such as drawer 2, ventilation pipes, purification box 5, and settling box 8 to form a complete cultivation environment system, protecting the edible fungi from direct interference from the external environment and creating stable conditions for their growth. The drawer-type design of drawer 2 facilitates the operation and management of the edible fungi cultivation bags by the grower, such as adding culture medium, checking the growth status of the edible fungi, and harvesting mature edible fungi, without having to disassemble the entire cultivation box, thus improving operational convenience and efficiency. Simultaneously, the breathable plate 3 inside drawer 2 ensures air circulation under the cultivation bags, allowing all parts of the edible fungi to come into contact with fresh air, while also providing stable support to prevent the bags from tipping over or shifting during growth, promoting uniform growth and development of the edible fungi. The exhaust pipe 4 is used to expel stale air and excess moisture from the box 1, maintaining air circulation and freshness within the box. During the growth of edible fungi, gases such as carbon dioxide and water vapor are produced. If these gases are not expelled in time, it will lead to polluted air inside the box, affecting the respiration and normal growth of the edible fungi. The exhaust duct 4 effectively solves this problem, maintaining a suitable gaseous environment inside the chamber through air exchange with the outside air, promoting the healthy growth of edible fungi. The activated carbon material inside the purification chamber 5 has a strong adsorption capacity. Before outside air enters the chamber 1 through the air supply duct 7, it passes through the purification chamber 5 first. Activated carbon can adsorb harmful gases, odors, and some microorganisms in the air, effectively filtering out substances that may have a negative impact on the growth of edible fungi, such as industrial waste gas and pesticide residues, providing clean and pure air for edible fungi, thereby ensuring the quality and yield of edible fungi, reducing the probability of pests and diseases caused by air pollution, and improving the safety of edible fungi for consumption. The sealing cover 6 ensures the airtightness of the purification chamber 5, preventing the leakage of activated carbon material and ensuring the stability and durability of the purification effect. On the other hand, its fixedly connected air supply duct 7 provides a channel for outside air to enter the purification chamber 5, allowing air to... The air enters the chamber 1 through an orderly activated carbon filter, ensuring the normal operation of the entire ventilation system. The air supply duct 7, connecting the purification chamber 5 and the chamber 1, serves as the channel for outside air to enter the chamber 1. It delivers purified fresh air into the chamber 1, providing sufficient oxygen for the growth of edible fungi, meeting their respiration needs, and aiding in their metabolism and growth. Simultaneously, it ensures that the incoming air has been filtered by the purification chamber 5, preventing untreated polluted air from directly entering the chamber 1 and guaranteeing the air quality inside. The settling tank 8 contains water to settle dust and impurities in the air. When air passes through the settling tank 8 under the action of the air guide mechanism, dust and impurities settle into the water due to gravity, further purifying the air entering the chamber 1 and preventing dust and impurities from covering the surface of the edible fungi, thus affecting their photosynthesis and respiration.This is crucial for ensuring the appearance quality and healthy growth of edible fungi, avoiding problems such as hindered growth and deteriorated quality caused by the accumulation of dust and impurities, thus improving the commercial value of edible fungi. The air guiding mechanism, located on the box 1 and the settling box 8, guides the air to flow rationally between the box 1, the purification box 5, and the settling box 8. This ensures that the air is fully filtered by the activated carbon in the purification box 5 and treated by the dust settling in the settling box 8, and then evenly distributed within the box 1, providing a comprehensive high-quality air environment for the edible fungi. This makes the ventilation and air exchange within the box more efficient and stable, improving the overall ventilation system performance of the cultivation box and optimizing the growth conditions for edible fungi. In summary, this edible fungi cultivation box, through the synergistic effect of its various parts, effectively solves the problem of ineffective air filtration during ventilation and air exchange in current edible fungi cultivation environments. It provides a clean, stable, and suitable air environment for the growth of edible fungi, helping to improve the yield and quality of edible fungi, and has significant practicality and innovation.

[0023] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the air guiding mechanism includes: a fan 9 fixedly installed on the housing 1 for supplying air; a first air guiding pipe 10 fixedly connected to the air outlet end of the fan 9, the air outlet end of the first air guiding pipe 10 extending into the settling box 8; and a second air guiding pipe 11 fixedly connected to the top of the settling box 8, the end of the second air guiding pipe 11 extending into the purification box 5.

[0024] In this embodiment, the fan 9 serves as the power source for the entire ventilation system. The fan 9 actively draws in outside air and provides the necessary pressure for air circulation within the growing box. The operation of the fan 9 overcomes the resistance from the ventilation ducts and filters, ensuring a continuous flow of fresh air into the box 1. This meets the oxygen requirements of the edible fungi during their growth and maintains good air circulation, ensuring smooth respiration and preventing problems such as poor growth or pest infestation caused by poor air circulation. One end of the first air duct 10 is fixedly connected to the outlet of the fan 9, and the other end extends into the settling box 8. The air blown out by the fan 9 is precisely guided into the settling box 8 through the first air duct 10, allowing the air to pass through the settling box 8 for dust and impurity settling before entering the box 1. This directional airflow ensures that air flows along a predetermined purification path, improving the efficiency and reliability of air purification. It prevents untreated air from directly entering chamber 1, effectively preventing dust from accumulating on the surface of the edible fungi, ensuring their photosynthesis is unaffected, and maintaining their normal growth and development. The second air duct 11 at the top of the settling chamber 8 guides the air, after dust settling, into the purification chamber 5. It plays a crucial role in connecting the settling chamber 8 and the purification chamber 5, ensuring that air, after initial dust settling, can smoothly enter the purification chamber 5 for activated carbon adsorption purification. Through this orderly airflow design, air passes through two important stages—settling and adsorption purification—maximizing the removal of dust, impurities, and harmful gases from the air. This provides an extremely pure air environment for the edible fungi, improving their quality and yield, reducing various planting risks caused by air pollution, ensuring the efficient and stable operation of the ventilation system within the cultivation chamber, and optimizing the overall cultivation conditions for the edible fungi.

[0025] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of plug-in blocks 12 are symmetrically fixedly installed on the bottom of the box 1, and the plug-in blocks 12 are provided with detachable support legs 13.

[0026] In this embodiment, multiple plug-in blocks 12 symmetrically and fixedly installed at the bottom of the box 1 provide a convenient connection method for the support legs 13. This design allows the support legs 13 to be quickly and stably combined or separated from the box 1, facilitating operation and adjustment of the planting box in different usage scenarios. For example, when the planting box needs to be moved, the support legs 13 can be easily disassembled, reducing the overall volume and weight of the planting box and making it easier to transport; while when the planting box is fixed for planting operations, the support legs 13 can be easily plugged into the plug-in blocks 12, providing stable support for the box 1 and ensuring that it will not affect the growth environment of edible fungi due to shaking or tilting during use.

[0027] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the bottom of the box 1 is fixedly connected to a drain pipe 14 for draining accumulated water, and a valve 15 is provided on the drain pipe 14.

[0028] In this embodiment, the drain pipe 14, fixedly connected to the bottom of the box 1, plays a crucial role in drainage. During the cultivation of edible fungi, a certain amount of water may accumulate inside the box 1 due to factors such as water spraying for humidification and condensation. If this water cannot be drained in time, the humidity inside the box will remain too high for a prolonged period, easily leading to the growth of harmful microorganisms such as bacteria and mold, thereby causing diseases in the edible fungi and affecting their growth and quality. The drain pipe 14 provides a channel for the drainage of accumulated water, effectively preventing the adverse effects of water accumulation on the growth environment of edible fungi, maintaining the humidity inside the box within a suitable range, and ensuring the healthy growth of edible fungi.

[0029] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a water filling hopper 17 is fixedly connected to the top of the settling tank 8, and a removable plug 18 is provided on the water filling hopper 17.

[0030] In this embodiment, the water filling hopper 17 fixedly connected to the top of the settling tank 8 provides a convenient way to replenish water in the settling tank 8; the plug 18 can tightly cover the water filling hopper 17 to prevent external dust, impurities and other pollutants from entering the settling tank 8 through the water filling hopper 17, thus avoiding secondary pollution of the water in the settling tank 8.

[0031] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, the box body 1 is connected to a box door by a hinge, and the box door is provided with a visual observation window.

[0032] In this embodiment, the door design allows growers to directly operate and manage the edible fungi cultivation inside the box 1. Connected by hinges, the door can be opened and closed flexibly. Operations such as placing or replacing edible fungi cultivation bags, checking the growth status of the fungi, and cleaning debris inside the box do not require complex disassembly or movement of the entire cultivation box, greatly improving operational convenience and efficiency. Furthermore, this connection method ensures that the door fits tightly against the box 1 when closed, maintaining the box 1's airtightness and preventing untreated outside air from entering. This ensures the stability of the purified and regulated air environment inside the cultivation box, which is conducive to the growth of edible fungi in a suitable environment. The visual observation window provides growers with a way to view the growth of edible fungi inside the box in real time without opening the door.

[0033] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a lamp holder is provided on the top of the box 1, a temperature control lamp 16 is provided on the lamp holder, and a ventilation opening is provided at the bottom of the drawer 2.

[0034] In this embodiment, the lamp holder provides a stable mounting position for the temperature-controlled lamp 16, which can automatically adjust its light emission and heating state according to a preset temperature range. The temperature requirements vary at different growth stages of edible fungi. For example, during the mycelial growth stage, a relatively low temperature may be suitable, while during the fruiting body formation and development stage, a slightly higher temperature may be required. The temperature-controlled lamp 16 can provide heat when the ambient temperature is low, maintaining the temperature inside the chamber within a suitable range, ensuring that the growth process of the edible fungi is not inhibited by low temperatures, and promoting their healthy growth and development.

[0035] In summary, the fan 9 provides power, allowing air to enter the settling box 8 through the first air duct 10 for dust settling, then through the second air duct 11 into the purification box 5 for activated carbon adsorption purification, and finally through the air supply duct 7 into the box body 1, forming a complete air purification and circulation path. This ensures that the air inside the box is clean, fresh, and well-circulated, providing a high-quality air environment for the growth of edible fungi, solving the air filtration problem during ventilation, promoting the respiration and metabolism of edible fungi, reducing the breeding of pests and diseases, and improving yield and quality. The drawer 2 design facilitates growers to add culture medium, check growth status, and harvest edible fungi cultivation bags without disassembling the cultivation box, improving operational convenience and efficiency. The breathable plate 3 inside the drawer 2 ensures air circulation and stability of the cultivation bags.
