[0002] Seed soaking is a process of agricultural planting, which refers to soaking seeds before sowing for seeds that germinate slowly. The purpose of seed soaking is to make seeds absorb water quickly to reach the water content for normal germination. The water content of dry seeds is usually below 15%, and the physiological activity is very weak, so the seeds are in a dormant state. After the seeds absorb water, the seed coat swells and softens, and the embryo obtains water, energy and nutrients. Under suitable temperature and oxygen conditions, cells begin to divide and elongate, and finally break through germination.
[0003] The existing germination device mainly includes a soaking barrel. The burlap bag or woven bag containing seeds is directly placed in the barrel for soaking. A heating device is arranged inside the barrel to keep the water temperature constant. However, an oxygenator is needed to increase the oxygen in the water in the barrel during use, which increases the cost due to the increased equipment investment. In addition, the seeds need to be manually transported during use, which is labor-intensive. Therefore, the present utility model provides a seed soaking and germination device to solve the above problems. UTILITY MODEL CONTENT

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0022] As shown in Figs. 1-3 the drawings, it relates to a seed soaking and germination device, which comprises a bottom plate 1, a cylinder 2 fixed on the upper surface of the bottom plate 1, a seed storage assembly 3 arranged in the cylinder 2, an oxygenation pipe 4 fixed at the bottom of the cylinder 2 and provided with a plurality of air outlets on the surface, a heating and inflation assembly 5 installed on the outer wall of the cylinder 2 and communicated with the oxygenation pipe 4, a vertical pipe 7 fixed on the upper surface of the bottom plate 1, a vertical rod 8 rotatably connected to the vertical pipe 7 through a bearing, a top plate 9 fixed at the top end of the vertical rod 8, a lifting assembly 11 installed on the upper surface of the top plate 9, a controller 12 fixed on the surface of the vertical rod 8, and a drain pipe 13 fixed at the bottom end of the side wall of the cylinder 2 and provided with a valve at the middle part.
[0023] The heating and inflation assembly 5 comprises an air pump 51 fixed on the outer wall of the cylinder 2, an inflation pipe 52 fixedly connected to the air outlet of the air pump 51, the other end of the inflation pipe 52 communicated with the oxygenation pipe 4, a heating pipe 53 fixedly connected to the middle part of the inflation pipe 52, and an electric heating wire installed in the heating pipe 53.
[0024] Since the inflation pipe 52 is communicated with the oxygenation pipe 4, air can be injected into the cylinder 2 to increase the oxygen concentration of the water in the cylinder 2 after the air pump 51 is started, and the injected air can be heated by starting the electric heating wire, and the heated air can directly heat the water, so that the oxygenation and heating of the water are realized simultaneously by one device.
[0025] A temperature sensor 6 is installed on the inner wall of the cylinder 2, and the temperature sensor 6, the electric heating wire and the air pump 51 are electrically connected with the controller 12.
[0026] In this embodiment, the temperature sensor 6 is a DS18B20, and the controller 12 is a CP29xx. The temperature sensor 6 is used to monitor the water temperature inside the barrel 2 in real time, and the temperature information is fed back to the controller 12. When the temperature reaches the peak value, the controller 12 reversely controls the electric heating wire to stop working. When the temperature is lower than the lower limit, the controller 12 controls the electric heating wire to start working, so as to ensure that the water temperature inside the barrel 2 is constant.
[0027] The inflating pipe 52 is fixedly connected with the one-way valve 41.
[0028] By arranging the one-way valve 41, the water inside the barrel 2 can be prevented from flowing back to the inside of the inflating pipe 52.
[0029] The lifting assembly 11 comprises a motor 111 fixed to the upper surface of the top plate 9. The output shaft of the motor 111 is fixedly connected with a wire reel 112. The wire reel 112 is wound with a steel wire 113. The storage assembly 3 comprises a mesh barrel 31. The mesh barrel 31 is covered with a top cover 32 at the top end. The top end of the mesh barrel 31 is fixed with a handle 33 on both sides. The bottom end of the steel wire 113 is fixed with two hooks 114. The hooks 114 are connected with the handle 33. The motor 111 is electrically connected with the controller 12.
[0030] The two hooks 114 are directly hung on the surface of the handle 33. After the controller 12 controls the motor 111 to rotate forward or reversely, the wire reel 112 can unwind or wind the steel wire 113. The steel wire 113 pulls the storage assembly 3 to rise or fall.
[0031] The support rod 10 is fixedly connected with the top plate 9 at the lower surface and the side wall of the vertical rod 8.
[0032] By arranging the support rod 10, the support strength of the top plate 9 can be increased.
[0033] The vertical pipe 7 is fixedly connected with the lock bolt 71 at the top end. The vertical rod 8 can rotate in the vertical pipe 7. When the vertical rod 8 is rotated to a specified angle, the lock bolt 71 can be tightened to press and fix the vertical rod 8.
[0034] Working principle: first, add seeds in the mesh barrel 31. Then, hang the hooks 114 on the handle 33 on the top of the mesh barrel 31 away from the barrel 2. Then, control the motor 111 to drive the storage assembly 3 to rise through the controller 12. Then, rotate the vertical rod 8 to make the storage assembly 3 rotate to the top of the barrel 2. Then, start the motor 111 to drive the storage assembly 3 to fall into the barrel 2. Then, add water in the barrel 2. During the germination period, open the air pump 51 to oxygenate the water. The electric heating wire and the temperature sensor 6 are used to monitor the water temperature, so as to realize constant heating of the water. After the germination is completed, start the motor 111 to drive the storage assembly 3 to rise from the inside of the barrel 2. Then, rotate the storage assembly 3 to the side away from the barrel 2 to disassemble.
