Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of soilless cultivation technology, and in particular to floating beds for soilless cultivation. Background Technology
[0002] Soilless floating beds are a modern soilless cultivation technology, also known as floating hydroponics. In this technology, the plant's roots are suspended in water, and the plant's growth needs are met through nutrient supply from the hydroponic nutrient solution and gas exchange via oxygen bubbles. This technology is commonly used to grow vegetables, strawberries, flowers, and other plants.
[0003] Existing hydroponic floating beds require connecting individual small floating beds together and then enclosing them with PVC pipes to form a large floating bed. If the area of the floating bed needs to be changed, the external PVC pipes need to be removed, and then some of the small floating beds need to be dismantled and reassembled. This method is inconvenient for repeatedly changing the area of the floating bed, and the splicing operation is also time-consuming and labor-intensive. Secondly, existing floating beds do not have a vine climbing structure, which makes it easy for some hydroponic plants to detach from the floating bed during the growth stage. This not only reduces the aesthetics of the hydroponic plants on the floating bed, but also makes it inconvenient to harvest the hydroponic plants or their fruits later.
[0004] To address this, a floating bed for soilless cultivation is proposed, which has the advantages of easy and quick assembly and disassembly, as well as convenient vine management, thereby solving the problems mentioned in the background technology. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a floating bed for soilless cultivation.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a floating bed for soilless cultivation, comprising a floating bed body, wherein the floating bed body is composed of several sub-floating beds assembled together, and each sub-floating bed has an integrally injection-molded splicing plug on two adjacent sides, and an integrally injection-molded concave insert on the other two adjacent sides of each sub-floating bed; the splicing plug has integrally formed locking blocks on its left and right sides, and a pleated part is provided in the middle of the splicing plug; the inner side of the concave insert has a locking groove corresponding to the locking block; the top surface of the sub-floating bed is provided with several planting troughs, and several screw holes are opened through the periphery of each planting trough through the sub-floating bed; a climbing rod is provided above the screw holes, and several hooks are integrally injection-molded on the surface of the climbing rod; and a threaded head connected to the screw holes is provided at the bottom of the climbing rod.
[0007] As a further description of the above technical solution: two strip-shaped airbags are arranged in parallel in the concave cavity at the bottom of the sub-float, and two rows of limiting blocks are integrally injection molded on the inner side of the concave cavity of the sub-float. Each row of limiting blocks forms a group of two, and each group of limiting blocks is provided with a protruding part that contacts the airbag.
[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution: the pleated part of the splicing plug is a W-shaped structure, and the locking block of the splicing plug is an isosceles trapezoidal structure.
[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution: each planting trough of the sub-floating bed has several circular holes at its bottom, and the depth of the planting trough is less than the thickness of the sub-floating bed.
[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution: the inner space of the concave insert shell matches the size of the concave insert shell, and both sides of the concave insert shell are provided with slots corresponding to the card blocks.
[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution: the top surface of the sub-floating bed is a hollow structure, and several diamond-shaped holes are evenly arranged on the hollow structure.
[0012] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0013] In this invention, each sub-float of the floating bed body has an integrally injection-molded splicing plug on two adjacent sides, and an integrally injection-molded concave insert shell on the other two adjacent sides of each sub-float. By bringing the two sub-floats close to each other, the splicing plug of one sub-float is inserted into the concave insert shell of the other sub-float. Since the splicing plug is provided with a W-shaped pleated part and isosceles trapezoidal locking blocks are provided on the left and right sides of the splicing plug, as the splicing plug is inserted into the concave insert shell, the W-shaped pleated part of the splicing plug deforms, making room for the locking blocks to extend into the concave insert shell. When the locking block extends to the locking groove position opened on the inner side of the concave insert shell, the locking block engages with the locking groove of the concave insert shell. This structure facilitates repeated changes to the area of the floating bed and makes it easy to quickly assemble and disassemble the floating bed.
[0014] In this invention, several screw holes are made on the top surface of the sub-floating bed relative to the planting trough, and a climbing rod is installed in each screw hole through a threaded head. By connecting the threaded head of the climbing rod to the screw hole on the sub-floating bed, the climbing rod is installed vertically relative to the sub-floating bed. Combined with several hooks evenly arranged on the surface of the climbing rod, it is easy to hang and place the hydroponic plant vines in the planting trough. On the one hand, it increases the aesthetics of the hydroponic plants on the floating bed body, and on the other hand, it makes it inconvenient to harvest the hydroponic plants or their fruits later.

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0022] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a floating bed for hydroponics is provided.
[0023] The present invention will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, such as... Figure 1-4 As shown, the floating bed for soilless cultivation according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a floating bed body 1, which is composed of several sub-floating beds 2 assembled together. Each sub-floating bed 2 has two adjacent sides integrally injection-molded with a splicing insert 4, and two other adjacent sides integrally injection-molded with a concave insert shell 10. The left and right sides of the splicing insert 4 are integrally formed with locking blocks 12, and the middle of the splicing insert 4 is provided with a pleated portion 13. The inner side of the concave insert shell 10 is provided with a locking groove 11 corresponding to the locking block 12. The top surface of the sub-floating bed 2... The system is equipped with several planting troughs 3, and each planting trough 3 has several screw holes 14 through the periphery of the sub-floating bed 2. A climbing rod 5 is provided above the screw holes 14, and several hooks 6 are integrally injection molded on the surface of the climbing rod 5. The bottom of the climbing rod 5 is provided with a threaded head 7 connected to the screw holes 14. The sub-floating beds 2 of the floating bed body 1 are spliced together. Due to the setting of the W-shaped pleated part 13 and the isosceles trapezoidal locking block 12, it is easy to adapt to deformation and disengage from the locking state, so that the sub-floating beds 2 can be quickly disassembled.
[0024] In one embodiment, two strip-shaped airbags 8 are arranged in parallel within the concave cavity at the bottom of the sub-float 2, and two rows of limiting blocks 9 are integrally injection molded on the inner side of the concave cavity of the sub-float 2. Each row of limiting blocks 9 forms a group of two, and each group of limiting blocks 9 is provided with a protruding part that contacts the airbag 8. With this structure, the two rows of limiting blocks 9 serve as the limiting structure for the airbag 8, which not only ensures the fixation of the airbag 8 but also facilitates the replacement of the airbag 8 in case of deflation.
[0025] In one embodiment, the pleated portion 13 of the splicing plug 4 has a W-shaped structure, and the locking block 12 of the splicing plug 4 has an isosceles trapezoidal structure. This structure allows the W-shaped pleated portion 13 of the splicing plug 4 to deform during the pressure stage, making room for the locking block 12 to extend into the concave insert shell 10.
[0026] In one embodiment, each planting trough 3 of the sub-floating bed 2 has several circular holes at the bottom. The depth of the planting trough 3 is less than the thickness of the sub-floating bed 2. This structure facilitates the planting of hydroponic plants.
[0027] In one embodiment, the inner space of the concave insert 10 matches the size of the concave insert 10, and both sides of the concave insert 10 are provided with slots 11 corresponding to the card block 12. With this structure, it is easy to assemble two or more sub-floating beds 2.
[0028] In one embodiment, the top surface of the sub-floating bed 2 is a hollow structure, and several diamond-shaped holes are evenly arranged on the hollow structure. The hollow structure helps to reduce the material used in the sub-floating bed 2 and save costs.
[0029] Working principle:
[0030] In use, first select an appropriate number of sub-floating beds 2 according to the expected hydroponic area of the plants. By bringing two sub-floating beds 2 close together, the splicing plug 4 of one sub-floating bed 2 is inserted into the concave insert 10 of the other sub-floating bed 2. Because the splicing plug 4 has W-shaped pleats 13 and isosceles trapezoidal locking blocks 12 on both sides, as the splicing plug 4 is inserted into the concave insert 10, the W-shaped pleats 13 deform, making room for the locking blocks 12 to extend into the concave insert 10. When the locking blocks 12 extend to the inner side of the concave insert 10... When the slot 11 is in position, the locking block 12 engages with the slot 11 of the concave insert shell 10. Multiple sub-floating beds 2 can be sequentially spliced using the above steps. When it is necessary to tidy up the vines of hydroponic plants, the threaded head 7 of the climbing rod 5 is connected to the screw hole 14 on the sub-floating bed 2, so that the climbing rod 5 is installed vertically about the sub-floating bed 2. Combined with several hooks 6 evenly arranged on the surface of the climbing rod 5, it is easy to hang and place the vines of hydroponic plants at the planting trough 3. On the one hand, it increases the aesthetics of the hydroponic plants on the floating bed body 1, and on the other hand, it makes it inconvenient to collect the hydroponic plants or their fruits later.
[0031] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
