Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of planting boxes, specifically a soilless planting box that facilitates harvesting by agronomists. Background Technology
[0002] Soilless growing boxes are an innovative application of modern agricultural technology, allowing plants to grow without the use of traditional soil. This method utilizes various soilless cultivation techniques such as hydroponics, aeroponics, and substrate cultivation to provide plants with the necessary water, oxygen, and nutrients. Soilless substrates (such as perlite, vermiculite, coconut fiber, and rock wool) are used as the supporting medium for plant roots. These substrates have good aeration and water retention, and nutrient solutions are transferred to the plants through the substrate. Soilless growing boxes can be stacked vertically or arranged in shelves, greatly increasing the planting density per unit space, making them suitable for urban agriculture and planting in limited spaces. Compared with traditional farming, soilless cultivation significantly reduces water consumption by recycling nutrient solutions. The soilless environment reduces the risk of soil-borne pests and diseases, and the clean growing environment and regular disinfection effectively control disease occurrence.
[0003] However, in existing soilless planting boxes, the plant roots carrying nutrient solution are pulled out during the harvesting process, and the nutrient solution or nutrient substrate will be scattered on the surface of the planting box. Since the plants are planted relatively densely, it is difficult to clean them, and it is also difficult to remove the whole board of green plants during harvesting, resulting in low harvesting efficiency.
[0004] To address the problems raised in the background art, those skilled in the art have proposed a soilless planting box that facilitates harvesting by agronomists. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides a soilless planting box that facilitates harvesting by agronomists. This solves the problem in existing soilless planting boxes where plant roots carrying nutrient solution are pulled out during harvesting, and the nutrient solution or nutrient substrate is scattered on the surface of the planting box, making it difficult to clean due to the dense planting of plants.
[0006] A soilless planting box that facilitates harvesting by agronomists includes a soilless planting box and a tray. The tray is installed on the upper surface of the soilless planting box, and a plurality of planting grooves are formed on the upper surface of the tray. Protective components are provided in the planting grooves.
[0007] The protective components include a planting basket installed in the planting trough, a gathering ring fixed to the bottom of the planting basket, a protective plate installed at the port of the planting trough, and a through groove opened around the protective plate.
[0008] Preferably, the inner wall of the planting trough is provided with a threaded groove, and the protective plate is threadedly engaged with the planting trough.
[0009] Preferably, the upper surface of the tray is provided with a groove, the inner wall of the groove is provided with a handle, and a locking component is provided between the handle and the soilless planting box.
[0010] Preferably, the locking component includes spring grooves formed on opposite side walls of the tray, a return spring connected in the spring grooves, slots formed on the two inner walls of the soilless planting box, and a pull rope connected between the tray and the handle.
[0011] Preferably, the pull rope passes through the handle, and one end of the pull rope is fixedly connected to a limiting plate, which fits against the inner wall of the handle.
[0012] Preferably, the soilless planting box has a ventilated bottom plate on its bottom surface, and a ventilated pipe is installed on the inner wall of the soilless planting box. One end of the ventilated pipe extends to the outer wall of the soilless planting box, and several ventilated holes are opened around the ventilated pipe.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] 1. This utility model, by setting up protective components, makes the cultivation of each group of plants more uniform. The whole plant is located in the basket, and the plant roots are infiltrated into the soilless substrate through the planting basket for cultivation. When harvesting the plant, the plant roots pass through the binding ring. During the binding process, most of the culture medium is scraped away, and the plant is cleaned. After being pulled up, the roots at the bottom of the plant will open up after losing the restriction of the binding ring. During this process, most of the nutrient substrate will be shaken off, and it will be scraped away by the through groove of the protective plate. This realizes the cleaning of the plant during the harvesting process, which greatly improves the cleaning efficiency and ensures the cleanliness of the surface of the planting box.
[0015] 2. This utility model, by setting a reset spring, handle, pull rope, card plate and card slot, can quickly lift the entire tray, and the tray pulls the whole tray of plants out of the soilless substrate, realizing rapid harvesting. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model.
[0023] Example 1: As shown in the attached document Figure 1 To be continued Figure 4 As shown: This utility model provides a soilless planting box that is convenient for agronomists to harvest, including a soilless planting box 1 and a tray 3. The tray 3 is installed on the upper surface of the soilless planting box 1, and a plurality of planting grooves 4 are opened on the upper surface of the tray 3. The soilless planting box 1 is filled with soilless substrate, and the plant roots are located in the planting grooves 4. The planting grooves 4 are provided with protective components.
[0024] The protective components include a planting basket 5 installed inside the planting trough 4, a gathering ring 6 fixed to the bottom of the planting basket 5, a protective plate 8 installed at the port of the planting trough 4, and a through groove 9 opened around the protective plate 8.
[0025] The inner wall of the planting trough 4 is provided with a threaded groove 7, and the protective plate 8 is threadedly engaged with the planting trough 4; by providing the threaded groove 7, the protective plate 8 can be easily closed.
[0026] The bottom of the soilless planting box 1 is provided with a ventilation base plate 2, and the inner wall of the soilless planting box 1 is equipped with a ventilation pipe 18. One end of the ventilation pipe 18 extends to the outer wall of the soilless planting box 1, and several ventilation holes 19 are opened around the ventilation pipe 18. By setting the ventilation pipe 18, the soilless planting box 1 can be more breathable, avoiding oxygen deficiency and necrosis.
[0027] As can be seen from the above, during the planting process, the plant stems are located in the channel 9 and are bound by the protective plate 8, making the cultivation of each group of plants more neat. The planting basket 5 keeps the whole plant in the basket, and the plant roots can seep into the soilless substrate through the planting basket 5 for cultivation. When the plant is harvested and pulled out as a whole, the plant roots first pass through the binding ring 6, which binds the roots. During the binding process, most of the culture medium is scraped away, and the plant is cleaned. After being pulled out, the roots at the bottom of the plant will open up after losing the restraint of the binding ring 6. During this process, most of the nutrient substrate will be shaken off, and it will be scraped away by the channel 9 of the protective plate 8. This achieves the cleaning of the plant during the harvesting process, greatly improving the cleaning efficiency and ensuring the cleanliness of the planting box surface.
[0028] Example 2: Based on Example 1, a groove 10 is provided on the upper surface of the tray 3, and a handle 11 is installed on the inner wall of the groove 10. A locking component is provided between the handle 11 and the soilless planting box 1. The locking component includes a spring groove 12 opened on the opposite side walls of the tray 3, a return spring 13 connected in the spring groove 12, a slot 15 opened on the two inner walls of the soilless planting box 1, and a pull rope 16 connecting the slot plate 14 and the handle 11.
[0029] A pull rope 16 passes through the handle 11, and one end of the pull rope 16 is fixedly connected to a limiting plate 17, which fits against the inner wall of the handle 11.
[0030] As can be seen from the above, when plants need to be harvested quickly, the entire tray 3 can be lifted quickly by pulling the handle 11. The tray 3 pulls the whole tray of plants out of the soilless substrate, thus achieving rapid harvesting.
[0031] During the process of pulling the handle 11, the handle 11 is lifted first, and then the two sets of pull ropes 16 are pulled. The two sets of pull ropes 16 pull the two sets of clamping plates 14, pull the clamping plates 14 out of the clamping slots 15, release the clamping plates 14 from the clamping slots 15, and thus lift the tray 3.
[0032] During the subsequent installation of tray 3, tray 3 is pressed into the mounting groove on the surface of soilless planting box 1. During the insertion process, the clamping plate 14 is squeezed and pressed into the spring groove 12. When the position of the spring groove 12 is aligned with the clamping groove 15, the reset spring 13 pops out the clamping plate 14, and the clamping plate 14 is inserted into the clamping groove 15, so that the tray 3 is locked, thereby ensuring that the tray 3 can be installed stably.
