Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of Phalaenopsis orchid cultivation rack technology, specifically to a three-dimensional Phalaenopsis orchid cultivation rack. Background Technology

[0002] Phalaenopsis orchids belong to the genus Phalaenopsis in the family Orchidaceae. Native to subtropical rainforests, they are epiphytic orchids. Their large, white aerial roots protrude around the leaves, serving not only to absorb nutrients from the air but also for growth and photosynthesis. With advancements in science and technology, tissue culture techniques for Phalaenopsis orchids have become widely used. Vertical cultivation racks for Phalaenopsis orchids are specifically designed for vertical planting of plants like Phalaenopsis orchids. Their design and use aim to improve space utilization, promote healthy growth, and enhance their ornamental value.

[0003] The tiers of a three-dimensional cultivation rack are generally composed of multiple support plates arranged longitudinally. Phalaenopsis orchids are planted inside flowerpots, with several groups of flowerpots placed on several groups of support plates. Too many layers and too dense arrangement can affect the light and ventilation conditions of the Phalaenopsis orchids. For flowerpots on excessively high tiers, personnel need to use ladders to assist in operation. Climbing ladders to retrieve and place flowerpots on higher tiers not only increases the difficulty of the work but also poses safety hazards. Improvements should be made to address these issues.

[0004] Therefore, a three-dimensional cultivation rack for Phalaenopsis orchids is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0024] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a three-dimensional Phalaenopsis orchid cultivation rack includes a main body 1, a control box 2, and U-shaped frames 3. The control box 2 is fixedly mounted on one side wall of the main body 1. Two sets of U-shaped frames 3 are provided and staggered. A support plate 4 is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of each U-shaped frame 3. The top and one side of the support plate 4 are provided with limiting mechanisms 5 for clamping and limiting flowerpots of various sizes. The surfaces of the main body 1 and the two sets of U-shaped frames 3 are provided with driving mechanisms 6 for driving the two sets of U-shaped frames 3 to move in opposite directions. Specifically, the control box 2 controls the start and stop of the driving mechanisms 6. As the Phalaenopsis orchids grow, the flowerpots need to be replaced. When the Phalaenopsis orchids need to be replaced... The limiting mechanism 5 can clamp and fix flower pots of various sizes, thereby expanding the scope of application. The limiting mechanism 5 also ensures the stability of the flower pot and the Phalaenopsis orchid, thereby preventing the flower pot from tipping over or shaking, and thus avoiding adverse effects on the growth of the Phalaenopsis orchid. The two sets of U-shaped frames 3 are staggered, which is conducive to the light and ventilation of the Phalaenopsis orchid, thereby ensuring the growth and flowering of the Phalaenopsis orchid. The driving mechanism 6 can drive the two sets of U-shaped frames 3 to move longitudinally and in opposite directions, so that relevant personnel can easily pick up and place flower pots at high places without the need for ladders, thereby reducing the difficulty of work and eliminating safety hazards.

[0025] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the limiting mechanism 5 includes a groove 501 and a slide groove 502. The top of the support plate 4 has a groove 501 and a slide groove 502. A bidirectional lead screw 503 is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the slide groove 502. One end of the bidirectional lead screw 503 passes through the surface of the support plate 4 and extends to the outside of the slide groove 502. A knob 504 is fixedly mounted on this end of the bidirectional lead screw 503. Two sets of sliders 505 are threadedly connected to the surface of the bidirectional lead screw 503. Both sets of sliders 505 are slidably installed with respect to the inner wall of the slide groove 502. A connecting rod is fixedly mounted on the top of each set of sliders 505. 506. Each of the two sets of connecting rods 506 has a fixed limiting plate 507 at its other end, and the two sets of limiting plates 507 are arranged correspondingly. Specifically, rotating the knob 504 causes the bidirectional lead screw 503 to rotate, and the rotation of the bidirectional lead screw 503 causes the two sets of sliders 505 to slide in opposite directions, thereby causing the two sets of connecting rods 506 to move in opposite directions, thereby adjusting the distance between the two sets of limiting plates 507. When the distance between the two sets of limiting plates 507 is large enough, the flowerpot is placed inside the groove 501. At this time, rotating the knob 504 in the opposite direction causes the distance between the two sets of limiting plates 507 to decrease. When the surfaces of the two sets of limiting plates 507 contact the surface of the flowerpot, the flowerpot is clamped and fixed.

[0026] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the limiting plate 507 is arc-shaped, and the bottom of the limiting plate 507 is located inside the groove 501; specifically, the arc-shaped surfaces of the two sets of limiting plates 507 can fit as closely as possible to the surface of the flowerpot, thereby increasing the contact area. The two sets of limiting plates 507 clamp the flowerpot, thereby ensuring the stability of the flowerpot.

[0027] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the support plate 4 is provided in several groups, and each support plate 4 has several groups of grooves 501 and sliding grooves 502 on its top. Specifically, each group of grooves 501 can hold a group of flower pots, and the limiting plate 507 inside each group of grooves 501 can clamp and fix the flower pots.

[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 As shown, the driving mechanism 6 includes a motor 601 and a fixing plate 602. The motor 601 and the fixing plate 602 are fixedly mounted on one side wall of the culture rack body 1. A rotating shaft 603 is rotatably mounted on the surface of this side of the culture rack body 1. A worm gear 604 is rotatably mounted on the surface of the fixing plate 602. A worm wheel 605 and a gear 606 are respectively fixedly mounted on the surface of the rotating shaft 603, and the worm wheel 605 meshes with the worm gear 604. A rack 607 is slidably mounted on the inner wall of one side of the culture rack body 1. The U-shaped frame 3 is fixedly connected to the rack 607. Specifically, the motor 601 drives the worm gear 604 to rotate, thereby causing the worm wheel 605 to rotate, which in turn causes the rotating shaft 603 to rotate. When the rotating shaft 603 rotates, it drives the gear 606 to rotate, thereby causing the rack 607 to slide longitudinally, which in turn causes the U-shaped frame 3 to move longitudinally.

[0029] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, there are two sets of racks 607, and the two sets of racks 607 are fixedly connected to the two sets of U-shaped frames 3 respectively; specifically, the rotation of gear 606 causes the two sets of racks 607 to slide in opposite directions, thereby causing the two sets of U-shaped frames 3 to move in opposite directions.

[0030] In summary: The control box 2 controls the start and stop of the drive mechanism 6. As the Phalaenopsis orchid grows, the flowerpot needs to be replaced. When the Phalaenopsis orchid needs to be replaced, the limiting mechanism 5 can clamp and fix flowerpots of various sizes, thus expanding the scope of application. The limiting mechanism 5 can also ensure the stability of the flowerpot and Phalaenopsis orchid, thus preventing the flowerpot from tipping over or shaking, and thus avoiding adverse effects on the growth of the Phalaenopsis orchid. The two sets of U-shaped frames 3 are staggered, which is conducive to the light and ventilation of the Phalaenopsis orchid, thus ensuring the growth and flowering of the Phalaenopsis orchid. The drive mechanism 6 can drive the two sets of U-shaped frames 3 to move longitudinally and in opposite directions, thus ensuring that relevant personnel can easily pick up and place flowerpots at high positions without the need for ladders, thereby reducing the difficulty of work and eliminating safety hazards.
