Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of Chinese medicinal herb cultivation technology, specifically to a seedling bed for Chinese medicinal herb cultivation. Background Technology

[0002] During the seedling stage, Chinese medicinal herbs are relatively fragile and have weak resistance to wind and cold. In order to improve the survival rate of seedlings, seedling growers place the seedlings in greenhouses for cultivation. They usually do not place these seedlings directly on the ground for cultivation, but place them on fixed or mobile seedbeds and cultivate them through seedling media.

[0003] Chinese patented invention CN212436622U discloses a seedling bed for planting Chinese medicinal herbs, including a support frame with a grooved plate on the frame. The grooved plate is connected to the support frame on both sides via a limiting mechanism. Support plates are fixed to both sides of the upper part of the support frame. A horizontal pipe is installed above two of the support plates, and multiple round holes are opened below the horizontal pipe, all located directly above the grooved plate. A funnel-shaped chamber is located above one of the support plates, and a connecting pipe is connected below the funnel-shaped chamber. One end of the connecting pipe is connected to the horizontal pipe, and a valve is installed on the connecting pipe. This seedling bed cultivates Chinese medicinal herbs by planting them on the grooved plate. When the grooved plate needs to be replaced or cleaned, simply pull the handle to pull the limiting rod out of the limiting hole.

[0004] However, the device still has certain problems. In actual use, the irrigation system for the seedling bed of Chinese medicinal herbs has a problem that the irrigation horizontal pipe cannot move back and forth, which greatly limits the irrigation effect and the growth quality of Chinese medicinal herbs. The irrigation horizontal pipe cannot move back and forth, and the irrigation water can only be concentrated in the middle of the trough. For Chinese medicinal herbs near the two sides, it is difficult to obtain sufficient and uniform water supply. This uneven irrigation mode not only affects the normal growth and development of Chinese medicinal herbs, but may also cause some areas to develop diseases due to excessive water, while other areas will grow slowly due to lack of water, which seriously affects the overall quality and yield of Chinese medicinal herbs. Therefore, we propose a seedling bed for Chinese medicinal herb cultivation to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0016] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a seedling bed for planting Chinese medicinal herbs, which has the following characteristics:

[0017] Beneficial effects:

[0018] This invention involves placing multiple seedling cups containing plants into placement holes on a support plate. When irrigation is needed, a first motor and a water pump are activated. The water pump draws water from a water tank and discharges it through a hose into a rectangular tube. The water is then sprayed out through nozzles to irrigate the plants in the seedling cups. Simultaneously, the first motor drives a second gear to rotate via a rotating rod. The second gear, through a meshing first gear, drives a reciprocating screw to rotate. The reciprocating screw moves a corresponding L-shaped plate, which in turn moves the rectangular tube. The rectangular tube then moves the nozzles, resulting in the rectangular tube driving multiple nozzles to reciprocate left and right for uniform irrigation, ensuring a sufficient and even water supply.

The end of the rotating rod 10 extends to the front side of the front L-shaped block 9 and is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first motor 12. An L-shaped plate 13 is threaded onto the lead screw 7. The tops of the two L-shaped plates 13 are fixedly connected to the same rectangular tube 14. The bottom of the rectangular tube 14 is connected to and fixed with multiple nozzles 15. The front side of the rectangular tube 14 is connected to and fixed with a flexible hose 16. Multiple seedling cups containing plants are placed sequentially into the placement holes 5 on the support plate 4. When irrigation is needed, the first motor 12 and the water pump 18 are started. The water pump 18 draws water from the water tank 17 and discharges it into the rectangular tube 14 through the flexible hose 16. The water is then sprayed out through the nozzles 15 to irrigate the plants in the seedling cups. At the same time, the first motor 12 drives the second gear 11 to rotate through the rotating rod 10. The second gear 11 drives the reciprocating lead screw 7 to rotate through the meshing first gear 8. The reciprocating lead screw 7 drives the corresponding L-shaped plate 13 to move. The L-shaped plate 13 drives the rectangular tube 14 to move. The rectangular tube 14 drives the nozzles 15 to move, so that the rectangular tube 14 drives the multiple nozzles 15 to move back and forth for uniform irrigation.

[0027] In some embodiments, a water tank 17 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, and a water pump 18 is fixedly connected to the top of the water tank 17. The input pipe of the water pump 18 extends into the water tank 17, and the output pipe of the water pump 18 is connected to and fixed to a hose 16. The hose 16 serves as a connection.

[0028] In some embodiments, a connecting pipe 19 is fixed between the top of the water tank 17 and the bottom of the trough plate 3.

[0032] In terms of working principle or structural principle, during use, multiple seedling cups containing plants are placed sequentially into the placement holes 5 on the support plate 4. When irrigation is needed, the first motor 12 and water pump 18 are started. The water pump 18 draws water from the water tank 17 and discharges it into the rectangular tube 14 through the hose 16, then sprays it out through the nozzle 15 to irrigate the plants in the seedling cups. At the same time, the first motor 12 drives the second gear 11 to rotate through the rotating rod 10. The second gear 11 drives the reciprocating screw 7 to rotate through the meshing first gear 8. The reciprocating screw 7 drives the corresponding L-shaped plate 13 to move, and the L-shaped plate 13 drives the rectangular tube 14 to move. The rectangular tube 14 drives the nozzles 15 to move, thereby causing the rectangular tube 14 to drive multiple nozzles 15 to reciprocate left and right for uniform irrigation. When it is necessary to move the entire device, the second motor 24 is started. The second motor 24 drives the moving rod 21 to slide on the square rod 26 through the screw 20. During the movement, the moving rod 21 squeezes the hinge rod 22. Under the action of the squeezing force, the hinge rod 22 moves and rotates. The hinge rod 22 drives the universal wheel 25 to contact the ground through the moving plate 23. The moving plate 23 drives the limiting plate 28 to slide on the corresponding rectangular hole 27, thereby moving the entire device.
