Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of edible fungi cultivation technology, specifically to a fungi substrate briquetting machine. Background Technology

[0002] Edible fungi, or large fungi with large fruiting bodies that are edible for humans, are rich in protein, vitamins, minerals, and bioactive substances, and are widely used in people's daily meals. Currently, the main cultivation methods for edible fungi are bag cultivation and bed cultivation. Frame cultivation of edible fungi, which utilizes cultivation frames, offers advantages such as excellent ventilation, high space utilization, convenient centralized management and operation, high mobility, low labor costs, and recyclability, making it a research hotspot for novel edible fungi cultivation methods.

[0003] Before cultivating edible fungi in a briquetting frame, the substrate within the frame needs to be briquetized using a briquetting machine. This compacts the substrate, facilitating subsequent perforation and inoculation, and effectively increasing the contact area between the mycelium and the substrate, promoting mycelial growth. Furthermore, it allows for faster colonization of the mycelium within the substrate, ensuring uniform mycelial growth and overall quality. However, existing briquetting machines, such as those described in Chinese patent document CN210283375U (A Novel Improved Straw Briquetting Machine), cannot simultaneously briquetize the substrate and perforate it. This necessitates a perforation process after briquetting, reducing the efficiency of frame cultivation and causing problems such as loose or uneven hole walls, or even collapse, affecting subsequent inoculation, mycelial growth, yield, and the final quality of the edible fungi. Additionally, existing briquetting machines, when briquetting the substrate within the cultivation frame... During the pressing process, to ensure proper pressure, the length and width of the extruded blocks produced by the pressing machine are usually smaller than the length and width of the inner wall of the cultivation frame. This means that during the pressing process, there is a gap between the outer wall of the extruded block and the inner wall of the cultivation frame. At the same time, due to the pressure, loose substrate will overflow from the gap, resulting in a ring of loose substrate near the inner wall of the cultivation frame (i.e., the end face of the substrate block is uneven). This not only makes it impossible for the pressed substrate blocks to be uniformly tight, but the loose substrate can also easily fill the inoculation holes, affecting subsequent edible mushroom inoculation and cultivation management. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a mushroom substrate briquetting machine. This briquetting machine can punch holes in the mushroom substrate in real time during the briquetting process, ensuring smooth hole walls and improving the cultivation efficiency of edible fungi. At the same time, the briquetting machine achieves uniform and thorough briquetting through real-time vibration during the briquetting process, avoiding the occurrence of loose mushroom substrate.

[0005] The objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] A mushroom substrate briquetting machine includes a base, support rods, a top plate, a pressing mechanism, and a vibration mechanism. A support rod is installed at each of the four corners of the base end face, and the tops of the four support rods are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the same top plate. The pressing mechanism includes a lifting plate, a fixed frame, a movable plate, perforated columns, and a lifting drive mechanism. The four corners of the lifting plate are penetrated by corresponding support rods, and the lifting plate is slidably connected to the outer wall of the support rods. A fixed frame is fixedly installed in the middle of the bottom surface of the lifting plate, and a movable plate is slidably installed on the inner wall of the fixed frame. Multiple perforated columns are evenly distributed on the bottom surface of the movable plate, with the end of each perforated column away from the movable plate penetrating the bottom surface of the fixed frame. The lifting drive mechanism is located on the end face of the lifting plate. The vibration mechanism is located on the lower side of the base.

[0007] Based on further optimization of the above scheme, a protective shell is provided at the middle of the end face of the lifting plate and corresponding to the lifting drive mechanism.

[0008] Based on further optimization of the above scheme, the lifting drive mechanism includes a drive cylinder and a positioning slide rod. The drive cylinder is fixedly installed in the middle of the end face of the lifting plate, and its output end passes through the lifting plate and is fixedly connected to the end face of the movable plate. A through hole is opened in the middle of the protective shell corresponding to the drive cylinder. There are two positioning slide rods, which are distributed on both sides of the drive cylinder. The bottom ends of the positioning slide rods are fixedly connected to the top surface of the movable plate, and the ends of the positioning slide rods away from the movable plate pass through the lifting plate and the protective shell in sequence.

[0009] Based on further optimization of the above scheme, an opening is provided in the middle of the top plate corresponding to the lifting drive mechanism; a set of hydraulic cylinders are respectively provided on both sides of the end face of the top plate, and the output end of the hydraulic cylinder passes through the top plate and the top surface of the protective shell in sequence, and is fixedly connected to the top surface of the lifting plate.

[0010] Based on further optimization of the above scheme, the vibration mechanism includes a vibration motor, a connecting plate and vibration protrusions. The vibration motor is located on the lower side of the base and its upper end is connected to the connecting plate. Multiple vibration protrusions are evenly distributed on the end face of the connecting plate. The base has through slots corresponding to the vibration protrusions and the vibration protrusions are located in the corresponding through slots. Initially, the end face of the vibration protrusion is flush with the end face of the base.

[0011] To ensure that the vibration direction of the vibrating protrusions is controllable, based on the further optimization of the above scheme, an n-shaped auxiliary plate is fixedly installed on the top surface of the connecting plate, and the vibrating protrusions are evenly distributed on the end face of the auxiliary plate; positioning posts are respectively installed at the bottom of the base and on both sides of the auxiliary plate, and the positioning posts penetrate through the corresponding auxiliary plate lugs; a spring is installed between the bottom surface of the base and the lugs of the auxiliary plate and on the outer ring of the positioning posts.

[0012] Based on further optimization of the above scheme, a limiting block is provided at the bottom end of the positioning column.

[0013] The following are the technical effects of this utility model:

[0014] The mushroom substrate briquetting machine provided by this utility model, through the cooperation of a lifting plate, a fixed frame, a movable plate, a perforating column, and a lifting drive mechanism, utilizes the up-and-down sliding of the movable plate within the fixed frame to achieve the concealment of the perforating column within the fixed frame and the exposure of the bottom surface of the fixed frame for perforation. Combined with the up-and-down sliding of the lifting plate, it achieves the simultaneous perforation and compression of the mushroom substrate within the cultivation frame located on the upper side of the base. This effectively solves the problems of time consumption, uneven hole walls, or loosening and collapse that occur in existing briquetting and subsequent perforation processes, ensuring smooth inoculation and improving the efficiency of edible mushroom cultivation. Simultaneously, by setting a vibration mechanism on the lower side of the base, the process of pressing and vibrating simultaneously ensures the uniformity and compactness of the briquetting, avoiding problems such as loosening of the side substrate due to gaps during the briquetting process, thereby ensuring the smoothness of subsequent inoculation and cultivation and ensuring the quality of cultivated edible mushrooms.

Figure 1As shown, mounting holes are opened at the four corners of the lifting plate 41 corresponding to the support rods 20, and the mounting holes are fixedly engaged with the sliding sleeves. The inner wall of the sliding sleeves is slidably connected to the outer wall of the corresponding support rods 20. A fixed frame 42 is fixedly installed in the middle of the bottom surface of the lifting plate 41, and a movable plate 43 is slidably installed on the inner wall of the fixed frame 42 (e.g., Figure 2 As shown, the outer wall of the movable plate 43 is slidably connected to the inner cavity side wall of the fixed frame 42. Multiple perforated posts 44 are evenly distributed on the bottom surface of the movable plate 43 (the number of perforated posts 44 is determined according to the size of the cultivation frame 60 and the perforation size; the perforated posts 44 are arranged in an array on the bottom surface of the movable plate 43), and one end of the perforated post 44 away from the movable plate 43 penetrates the bottom surface of the fixed frame 42 (e.g., ...).

The drive cylinder 451 is fixedly installed in the middle of the end face of the lifting plate 41, and its output end passes through the lifting plate 41 and is fixedly connected to the end face of the movable plate 43 (as shown). Figure 2 As shown, a mounting block is provided on the end face of the movable plate 43, and the bottom of the output end of the drive cylinder 451 is fixedly snapped into the mounting block; at the same time, the drive cylinder 451 can be either a hydraulic cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder), and a through hole is opened in the middle of the protective shell 410 corresponding to the drive cylinder 451; there are two positioning slide rods 452, and the two positioning slide rods 452 are distributed on both sides (left and right) of the drive cylinder 451. The bottom ends of the positioning slide rods 452 are fixedly connected to the top surface of the movable plate 43, and the end of the positioning slide rod 452 away from the movable plate 43 passes through the lifting plate 41 and the protective shell 410 in sequence (e.g., Figure 2 As shown, the lifting plate 41 has mounting holes corresponding to the positioning slide rod 452, and a sliding sleeve is fixedly engaged in the mounting holes. The inner wall of the sliding sleeve is slidably connected to the outer wall of the positioning slide rod 452, and the positioning slide rod 452 is slidably connected to the protective shell 410. An opening 31 is provided in the middle of the top plate 30 corresponding to the lifting drive mechanism; a set of hydraulic cylinders 32 is provided on both sides of the end face of the top plate 30.

[0021] The vibration mechanism is located on the lower side of the base 10, including a vibration motor 51, a connecting plate 52, and vibration protrusions 53. The vibration motor 51 is located on the lower side of the base 10, and its upper end is connected to the connecting plate 52 (i.e., the vibration motor 51 drives the connecting plate 52 to vibrate).

[0022] Example 2:

[0023] As another preferred embodiment of this utility model, based on the above embodiment 1, a limiting ring is sleeved on the outer wall of the support rod 20 between the lifting plate 41 and the base 10 (the limiting ring can be adjusted in height direction on the support rod 20). The distance between the limiting ring and the end face of the base 10 is less than the height of the cultivation frame 60, thereby limiting the downward movement of the lifting plate 41 and ensuring the consistency of each pressing block.

[0024] Example 3:

[0025] As another preferred embodiment of this utility model, in order to avoid the cultivation frame 60 shifting during vibration and pressing, based on the above embodiment 1, the two sides between the base 10 and the top plate 30 (i.e., Figure 2 H-shaped supports are respectively set on the left and right sides shown. The top of the H-shaped support is connected to the bottom surface of the top plate 30, and the bottom of the H-shaped support is connected to the end face of the base 10. The width of the H-shaped support is greater than the width of the lifting plate 41. The bottom end of the support rod 20 is changed from being connected to the end face of the base 10 to being connected to the horizontal bar of the corresponding H-shaped support. The vertical bars of the two H-shaped supports are connected by a positioning rod on the lower side of the horizontal bar of the H-shaped support. The positioning rod (i.e., its height position) is located in the middle of the cultivation frame 60 placed on the end face of the base 10. The side of the positioning rod that is close to each other is equipped with a clamping plate through a sliding connecting rod (i.e., one end of the sliding connecting rod is fixedly connected to the clamping plate, and the other end is slidably connected to the positioning rod). The clamping plate is controlled by a hydraulic cylinder set on the positioning rod to control the relative sliding between it and the positioning rod.

[0026] Working principle:

[0027] In use, firstly, the cultivation frame 60 that needs to be pressed and perforated is moved to the end face of the base 10, and the cultivation frame 60 is filled with substrate; then, the clamping plate is moved to the side of the cultivation frame 60 to position the cultivation frame 60 and prevent the lifting plate 41 from shifting or misaligning with the cultivation frame 60; then, the drive cylinder 451 is activated to push the movable plate 43 down (during this process, the positioning slide rod 452 also moves down), thereby exposing the perforated column 44 to the bottom surface of the fixed frame 42, and the perforated column 44 is perforated through the contact between the bottom surface of the fixed frame 42 and the movable plate 43. 4. After the hard limit is lowered, the drive cylinder 451 is stopped and the hydraulic cylinder 32 is started simultaneously, causing it to drive the lifting plate 41 to move downward. The lifting plate 41 simultaneously drives the protective shell 410, the fixed frame 42, the movable plate 43, the perforating column 44, and the lifting drive mechanism to move downward. At this time, the fixed frame 42 presses the substrate in the cultivation frame 60 into blocks, and the perforating column 44 perforates the substrate during the pressing process. During the pressing and perforating process, the vibration motor 51 is started in real time, and the cultivation frame 60 is vibrated through the vibration ridge 53, thereby ensuring the uniformity of pressing and perforation and the smoothness of the hole walls. After the pressing and perforation are completed, the drive cylinder 451 is started first to retract the perforating column 44 and position it in the fixed frame 42, then the hydraulic cylinder 32 is started to move the lifting plate 41 upward, and finally the clamping plate is started to release, and the cultivation frame 60 is removed from the base 10 for the next inoculation step.

[0028] Example 4:

[0029] As another preferred embodiment of this utility model, based on any of the above embodiments 1 to 3, a roller-type conveying assembly (i.e., multiple conveying rollers evenly distributed within the conveying frame) can be provided on the end face of the base 10 for conveying the cultivation frame 60; at the same time, the initial "the end face of the vibration protrusion 53 is flush with the end face of the base 10" is changed to "the end face of the vibration protrusion 53 is flush with the end face of the roller of the roller-type conveying assembly", and the vibration protrusion 53 is set to correspond to the gap between two adjacent rollers, and after passing through the through groove, it is located in the gap between two adjacent rollers.
