[0026] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0027] like Figures 1-6 As shown, a crop growth cycle monitoring device includes a cultivation cover 1. A sprayer 2 is fixedly connected to the middle of the upper inner surface of the cultivation cover 1. A monitoring mechanism 3 is movably installed on the upper inner surface of the cultivation cover 1 near the rear side. A light heating mechanism 4 is movably installed on the rear inner surface of the cultivation cover 1. A mechanism platform 5 is fixedly connected to the left inner side of the cultivation cover 1 near the front side. A fixing mechanism 6 is movably sleeved on the inner side of the mechanism platform 5. Several vertically distributed clips 7 are fixedly connected to the right side of the cultivation cover 1. Several vertically distributed slots 8 are opened on the left side of the cultivation cover 1. A conveying mechanism 9 is rotatably connected to the upper side of the cultivation cover 1 near the rear side.

[0028] The fixing mechanism 6 includes a baffle 61. The outer side of the baffle 61 is movably sleeved on the inner side of the mechanism platform 5. A movable frame 62 is movably sleeved on the outer side of the baffle 61 near the right side. Several vertically distributed inclined grooves 63 are opened on the front and rear sides of the inner side of the movable frame 62. The round shafts on the front and rear sides of the baffle 61 are slidably connected to the inner side of the inclined grooves 63.

[0029] It should be noted that the sprayer 2 can control multiple variables such as water output and spraying interval. The monitoring mechanism 3 and the mechanism platform 5 are the same as the structural components with the same function in the reference case. The locking strips 7 and locking slots 8 on the multiple cultivation hoods 1 cooperate with each other to form a row of multiple cultivation hoods 1. The cultivation hood 1 is equipped with a power socket. The internal circuits of two adjacent cultivation hoods 1 can be connected in parallel by wires. When the baffle 61 blocks the locking strip 7, the locking strip 7 cannot slide out from the inside of the locking slot 8. Pushing the movable frame 62 upward causes the baffle 61 to slide in the inclined groove 63, so that the baffle 61 is disengaged from the front side of the mechanism platform 5, allowing the locking strip 7 to slide out from the inside of the locking slot 8.

[0030] like Figure 4As shown, two limiting rods 67 are fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the inner side of the mechanism platform 5 by a stop block. Several vertically distributed second springs 69 are movably sleeved on the outer side of the two limiting rods 67, and the second springs 69 are located on the lower side of the stop block. Several vertically distributed horizontal plates 68 are fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the movable frame 62. The inner side of the horizontal plate 68 is movably sleeved on the outer side of the limiting rod 67, and the second springs 69 are located on the upper side of the horizontal plate 68.

[0031] It should be noted that the second spring 69 pushes down the horizontal plate 68, causing the movable frame 62 to push up and then reset itself, thus avoiding the friction between the parts affecting the reset.

[0032] like Figure 4 As shown, several vertically distributed telescopic rods 64 are fixedly connected to the inner left side of the baffle 61, and the right side of the telescopic rods 64 is fixedly connected to the inner right side of the mechanism platform 5. The outer sides of the several telescopic rods 64 are movably sleeved with first springs 65, and several vertically distributed straight grooves 66 are opened on the inner front and rear sides of the movable frame 62.

[0033] It should be noted that the outer side of the baffle 61, near the left side, is trapezoidal in shape, which allows the limiting rod 67 to be directly pushed into the inner side of the slot 8 without the need to manually move the baffle 61. The first spring 65 can automatically reset the fixing mechanism 6.

[0034] like Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the conveying mechanism 9 includes a rotating tube 91. The lower end of the rotating tube 91 is rotatably connected to the upper side of the incubation hood 1 near the left rear side. The inner side of the rotating tube 91 is movably sleeved with a movable tube 92. The outer side of the movable tube 92 is threadedly connected to a threaded seat 94 near the bottom. The inner side of the threaded seat 94 is movably sleeved with a connecting seat 93 near the bottom. The lower side of the connecting seat 93 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the incubation hood 1 near the right rear side.

[0035] It should be noted that when multiple culture covers 1 are connected together, the threaded seat 94 is rotated so that the connecting seat 93 is disengaged from the inside of the threaded seat 94. The rotating tube 91 is rotated so that the threaded seat 94 is aligned with the connecting seat 93 on the adjacent culture cover 1. The threaded seat 94 is then rotated so that the connecting seat 93 enters the threaded seat 94. The leftmost threaded seat 94 is connected to the water pump, and the rightmost connecting seat 93 is connected to the cap. The connecting seat 93 has an internal thread for connecting the cap.

[0036] like Figure 6As shown, a round tube 97 is fixedly connected to the bottom inner side of the threaded seat 94. A push seat 95 is movably sleeved on the outer side of the round tube 97 near the upper side. The outer side of the push seat 95 is movably sleeved on the inner side of the movable tube 92 near the bottom. A third spring 96 is movably sleeved on the inner side of the movable tube 92 near the bottom, and the third spring 96 is located on the upper side of the push seat 95.

[0037] It should be noted that when rotating the rotating tube 91, the lower side of the push seat 95 abuts against the connecting seat 93. The outer side of the push seat 95 near the bottom is spherical, causing the push seat 95 to be pushed upward. Then, when the third spring 96 is aligned with the inner side of the push seat 95, the third spring 96 pushes the push seat 95 to return to its original position.

[0038] like Figure 6 As shown, a rubber pad is fixedly connected to the upper side of the round tube 97.

[0039] It should be noted that the inner side of the push seat 95 is connected to the sprayer 2 by a hose, and the rubber gasket is used to seal the push seat 95 and the round tube 97.

[0040] like Figure 6 As shown, a pressure plate 98 is rotatably connected to the upper side of the threaded seat 94, and the pressure plate 98 is located above the third spring 96.

[0041] It should be noted that when the threaded seat 94 moves up and down in the movable tube 92, it drives the pressure plate 98 to move down. The downward movement of the pressure plate 98 pushes the third spring 96, causing the third spring 96 to be compressed, which further compresses the rubber gasket and improves the sealing performance.

[0042] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, when the baffle 61 blocks the locking strip 7, the locking strip 7 cannot slide out from the inside of the slot 8. Pushing the movable frame 62 upward causes the baffle 61 to slide in the inclined groove 63, causing the baffle 61 to disengage from the front side of the mechanism table 5, allowing the locking strip 7 to slide out from the inside of the slot 8. The second spring 69 pushes down the horizontal plate 68, causing the movable frame 62 to automatically reset after being pushed up, avoiding the friction between components affecting the reset. The outer side of the baffle 61 is trapezoidal in shape near the left side, allowing the limiting rod 67 to be directly pushed into the inside of the slot 8 without manually moving the baffle 61. The first spring 65 can automatically reset the fixing mechanism 6. Through the mutual cooperation of the locking strips 7 and slots 8 on multiple cultivation covers 1, and the fixing mechanism 6 for fixation, multiple cultivation covers 1 can be combined together. This allows the device to accommodate equipment according to quantity requirements, avoiding the possibility of multiple functional components on one cultivation cover 1 being separated by vertical plates. When the rotating tube 91 is rotated, the lower side of the push seat 95 abuts against the connecting seat 93. The outer side of the push seat 95 near the bottom is spherical, causing the push seat 95 to be pushed upward. Then, when the third spring 96 is aligned with the inner side of the push seat 95, the third spring 96 pushes the push seat 95 to return to its original position. The inner side of the push seat 95 is connected to the sprayer 2 by a hose. The rubber gasket is used to seal between the push seat 95 and the round tube 97. When the moving tube 92 moves up and down, the threaded seat 94 drives the pressure plate 98 to move down. The pressure plate 98 moves down and pushes the third spring 96, causing the third spring 96 to be compressed, which further compresses the rubber gasket and improves the sealing performance. By rotating the rotating tube 91, the threaded seat 94 is aligned with the connecting seat 93 on the adjacent cultivation hood 1. Then, by rotating the threaded seat 94, the water flow channels on the two adjacent devices are connected to each other, so that the combination of multiple devices can be supplied with water by only one water pump. The connection is convenient and the operation is simple.

[0043] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
