Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of plant growth tents, specifically relating to a light-proof plant growth tent. Background Technology

[0002] Plant tents can be used for indoor plant cultivation. Through human intervention, the temperature, humidity, and lighting required for plant growth can be better controlled, allowing plants to grow better. Therefore, a controller is needed inside the tent to regulate temperature and humidity. For some special plants, which are generally used for indoor cultivation, modern artificial high-intensity plant lights are used to shorten the plant growth cycle and increase plant yield. However, if these artificial high-intensity plant lights leak out, they will cause serious light pollution and have a strong impact on people's daily lives. Therefore, it is necessary to provide shading for indoor plants. Currently, most indoor planting tents have multiple light leaks on their surfaces, such as zipper seams and needle holes at the joints of the tent fabric, making it impossible to achieve 100% shading.

[0003] In view of this, this case arises. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a plant growth tent with a reasonable structural design that can effectively prevent light from penetrating.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a light-proof plant growth tent, comprising a tarpaulin and a support frame for supporting the tarpaulin, the tarpaulin being made of an opaque material; one side of the tent is provided with a roller door, a hinged door, and a side door, the hinged door further having a window; the roller door, hinged door, and side door are opened and closed by zippers, characterized in that the roller door is connected to the tarpaulin by a double-layer opaque zipper and further covered by a roller door cover curtain; the window on the hinged door is a U-shaped window, which is covered by a window cover curtain attached to the window surface by Velcro; the window or roller door is made of a transparent film.

[0006] The double-layer opaque zipper includes an inner opaque zipper and an outer opaque zipper. One side of the outer opaque zipper is sewn onto both sides of the inner opaque zipper. After the inner opaque zipper is closed, the outer opaque zipper is further closed to cover it.

[0007] One side of the inner layer opaque zipper is sewn near the edge of the outer surface of the tarpaulin door, with a certain distance reserved from the edge to form a second covering extension edge, which is not flush with the edge; the other side of the zipper is sewn near the edge of the door frame on the inner side of the tarpaulin, with a certain distance reserved from the edge of the door frame to form a first covering extension edge.

[0008] The width of the second covering extension is wider than the width of the first covering extension.

[0009] The first and second covered extension edges are misaligned after the zipper is closed, thus blocking light from the zipper gaps.

[0010] Both the first and second extended cover edges are strip-shaped light-blocking fabric pieces.

[0011] The roller shutter is made of a transparent film covering, which makes it easy to observe the growth of plants inside the tent. The upper frame of the roller shutter is equipped with a rollable roller shutter cover.

[0012] The window is provided with double or multiple Velcro straps around its perimeter. The window is covered with a transparent film material, and a window cover curtain is provided on the surface of the window. The window cover curtain is attached to the window with Velcro straps in a staggered manner.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: Compared with the prior art, the door of this utility model is a double-layer door. The inner layer is a transparent door (transparent film material), which facilitates observation of plant growth without damaging the plant production environment (temperature and humidity). The outer layer is a light-proof tarpaulin door (tarpaulin material). The door curtain and tarpaulin door frame are connected by double-layer opaque zippers to form a complete tarpaulin structure. The window is designed as a U-shaped window. The inner opening of the U-shaped window is made of transparent film material, and the edges are Velcro. The outer opening Velcro extends outward from the inner opening and is attached to the window cover to cover the window surface. The Velcro of the cover and the window are designed in a staggered pattern to prevent light leakage due to needle holes in the seams. In addition, the connection between the door and the tarpaulin uses double-layer opaque zippers for light-proof closure. One side of the inner opaque zipper is fixed to the inner edge of the transparent door. One side is fixed to the inner edge of the door frame; one side of the outer opaque zipper is sewn to the inner edge of the outer light-proof tarpaulin door, and a strip of light-proof fabric is sewn on the inside of this zipper (to block light leaking through the needle holes and gaps in the zipper teeth); the other side is fixed to the inner edge of the door frame, and a strip of light-proof fabric is sewn on the inside of this zipper (to block light leaking through the needle holes and gaps in the zipper teeth); the inner side of the lower end of the inner transparent curtain is sewn with Velcro, which is attached to the Velcro sewn on the outer side of the lower door frame; the outer side of the lower end of the inner transparent curtain is sewn with Velcro, which is attached to the Velcro sewn on the inner side of the outer light-proof tarpaulin curtain; a light-proof cover wider than the curtain is sewn on the outer side of the lower end of the outer light-proof tarpaulin curtain, which is attached to the Velcro sewn on the outer side of the lower door frame, to block light leaking from the inner and outer curtains due to needle holes and gaps in the Velcro. Therefore, after the double-layer zipper, strip-shaped light-blocking cloth, and door curtain cover, the light that shines through the zipper gaps and needle holes can be completely blocked, ensuring that the light inside the tent does not leak out and preventing people's normal life from being affected (plant tents are generally used for indoor planting, and modern artificial high-intensity plant lights are used to shorten the plant growth cycle and increase plant yield, but strong light leakage will cause light pollution and have a strong impact on people's daily life).

[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0019] This invention mainly solves the structural problem of needing to completely block light when special plants grow inside a tent.

[0020] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a light-proof plant growth tent consists of a tent fabric 1 and a support frame supporting the tent fabric 1. The tent fabric 1 is made of opaque material. This tent is mainly used for planting special plants that grow in complete darkness. A roller shutter 2 and a hinged door 10 are located on the front side of the tent. A transparent window 6 is further provided on the hinged door 10. A side door 13 is located on the side. Both the window 6 and the roller shutter 2 are covered with transparent material for observing the plant growth inside the tent. The roller shutter 2 is opened and closed by a double-layered zipper. After the zipper of the roller shutter 2, side door 13, or hinged door 10 is opened, workers can enter the tent to operate. After the roller shutter 2 is connected to the tent fabric by the double-layered opaque zipper, a roller shutter cover 8 is tightly covered on the surface of the roller shutter 2. The lower end of the roller shutter cover 8 is further glued to the roller shutter cover Velcro 11, thus achieving a tight light-blocking effect. The two sides of the window 6 are glued to the window cover 7 in a staggered manner using Velcro, achieving a tight light-blocking effect. Window 6 is set on the surface of the hinged door 10.

[0021] Both the side door 13 and the hinged door 10 are made of opaque materials.

[0022] The double-layer opaque zipper includes an inner opaque zipper 4 and an outer opaque zipper 5. The double-layer zipper is formed by overlapping, that is, one side of the outer opaque zipper 5 (outer zipper side one 501 and outer zipper side two 502) is sewn onto the outer edge of the inner zipper side one 401 and inner zipper side two 402 respectively. In this way, when the inner opaque zipper 4 is closed, the outer opaque zipper 5 is then closed, which plays a double role in preventing light from passing through.

[0023] Specifically, the two zippers are staggered and sewn together, covering each other's edges to prevent light from entering through the gaps in the zipper teeth. One side (401) of the inner opaque zipper 4 is sewn near the outer edge of the tarpaulin door 3, leaving a distance to form a second covering edge (301), which is not flush with the edge. The other side (402) of the inner opaque zipper 4 is sewn near the edge of the door frame on the inner side of the tarpaulin, also leaving a distance to form a second covering edge (201). All these covering edges are strip-shaped light-blocking fabric pieces.

[0024] The specific sewing method is as follows: one side of the inner layer opaque zipper is fixed to the inner surface edge of the transparent door, and the other side is fixed to the inner surface edge of the door frame; one side of the outer layer opaque zipper is sewn to the inner surface edge of the outer layer opaque tarpaulin door, and a strip of light-blocking fabric is sewn on the inside of this single-sided zipper (to block light leaking through the sewing needle holes and zipper tooth gaps), and the other side is fixed to the inner surface edge of the door frame, and a strip of light-blocking fabric is sewn on the inside of this single-sided zipper (to block light leaking through the sewing needle holes and zipper tooth gaps).

[0025] The width of the second covered extension edge 301 should be wider than the width of the first covered extension edge. In this way, when the first covered extension edge 201 and the second covered extension edge 301 are pulled together in the inner layer of the opaque zipper 4, they form a misalignment, which plays a very good role in blocking the light from the gap between the zippers.

[0026] The materials of the first and second covering extension edges 201 and 301 are made of opaque materials.

[0027] After the inner opaque zipper 4 is closed, the outer opaque zipper 5 is then closed on both sides, zipper 1 501 and zipper 2 502. After the double zippers are closed again, the light that shines through the gaps between the zippers can be completely blocked.

[0028] The roller door 2 is made of a transparent film material, and a rollable roller door cover 8 is provided at the upper frame of the roller door 2. The roller door cover 8 is made of an opaque material, and the roller door cover 8 completely covers the double zipper and the transparent roller door 2. Furthermore, the lower end of the roller door cover 8 is pasted to the roller door cover Velcro 11 to ensure a tight light-blocking effect between the roller door cover 8 and the roller door 2.

[0029] The window 6 is surrounded by a double-sided Velcro window. The inside of the window 6 is initially covered with a transparent film material, and the edges are Velcro for easy observation of the plants growing inside the tent. A rollable window cover curtain 7 is installed on the upper frame of the window 6. The window cover curtain 7 is attached to the window 6 by two loops of Velcro. In order to achieve a better light-blocking effect, the window cover curtain 7 and the double-sided Velcro are staggered. That is, when the Velcro is attached, the double-sided Velcro is not completely aligned and is staggered by a certain distance before being attached. This is also to further prevent light leakage due to the needle holes in the stitching of the Velcro.

[0030] The side door 13 is opaque and is closed with the tarpaulin by a zipper, and the lower edge of the side door 13 is further attached to the side door Velcro 12.

[0031] The roller shutter 8 can be rolled up at the top frame when opened. The side door 13, roller door 2 and hinged door 10 can be opened to enter the tent for operation. The window 6 can be used to observe the growth of plants inside the tent.

[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, an additional strip of light-blocking fabric 9 is added to the joints between the tent fabrics on each side of the tent to further prevent light from passing through the seams between the tent fabrics.

[0033] This invention is not limited to openings on any surface of the tent. Different light-blocking structures are used at the seams of the tent fabric, the zipper closures, the zipper teeth, and the window covers to block light. The double-layered zippers, strip-shaped light-blocking fabric, and curtain covers completely block light from leaking through zipper gaps and needle holes, ensuring no light leaks out of the tent and preventing disruption to daily life. (Plant tents are generally used for indoor planting, where modern artificial high-intensity plant lights are used to shorten the plant growth cycle and increase yield; however, strong light leakage can cause light pollution, significantly impacting daily life.)
