Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fungal cultivation containers, specifically a tubular cultivation device for edible fungi. Background Technology
[0002] Straw mushrooms are rich in nutrients, including crude protein (especially essential amino acids such as leucine and lysine), various vitamins (most abundant in B vitamins), minerals, and carbohydrates (glucose and galactose). They have the effects of relieving summer heat, alleviating constipation, anti-oxidation, regulating blood pressure and heart function, and their tender and crisp taste is loved by many.
[0003] Currently, traditional cultivation methods such as single-layer greenhouse cultivation, small arched shed cultivation, and indoor shelf cultivation all involve direct sowing on the substrate. After one or two fruiting cycles, the nutrients in the substrate decrease, and the mycelial activity declines, essentially ending the cultivation process. The substrate is then cleaned, replaced with fresh substrate, and sown again for the next cultivation cycle. During this process, a significant amount of nutrients remain in the substrate. Replacing the substrate with fresh substrate without fully utilizing it not only increases substrate costs but also increases the frequency of cultivation, wasting considerable labor and time, and significantly reducing production efficiency.

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0025] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the tubular cultivation device for edible fungi disclosed in this utility model mainly includes an outer cylinder 1 and an inner cylinder 2.
[0026] The outer cylinder 1 is filled with a microbial inoculum layer 4. The outer cylinder 1 has a receiving cavity 11, and its outer wall has multiple cultivation holes 121 spaced apart. The inner wall of the receiving cavity 11 has multiple first permeation holes 131 spaced apart. It should be understood that the microbial inoculum layer 4 is used to grow edible fungi, which can only grow through the cultivation holes 121 of the outer cylinder 1. Nutrient solutions and water can permeate through the first permeation holes 131 to provide nutrients to the edible fungi.
[0027] The inner cylinder 2 is housed within the receiving cavity 11, wherein the inner cylinder 2 is filled with a substrate layer 5, and the outer wall of the inner cylinder 2 is provided with a plurality of second permeation holes at intervals. It should be understood that the substrate layer 5 is the base layer for providing fertilizer, nutrients and water to edible fungi, and the nutrient solution permeates from the substrate layer 5 into the fungal layer 5 through the second permeation holes and the first permeation holes 121 for absorption by the edible fungi.
[0028] In this embodiment, the inner cylinder 2 is detachably disposed within the receiving cavity 11 of the outer cylinder 1. It should be understood that since edible fungi require sufficient nutrients for growth, the substrate layer 5 needs to be replaced after the fertilizer in the substrate layer 5 is absorbed. At this time, the inner cylinder 2 can be detached from the receiving cavity 11, and the substrate layer 5 inside the inner cylinder 2 can be replenished with nutrients or replaced with a new inner cylinder 2. After the inner cylinder 2 is reinstalled into the receiving cavity 11 inside the outer cylinder 1, the replacement of the substrate layer 5 can be completed. There is no need to change the fungal strain, only the substrate needs to be replaced, which greatly reduces manual labor and increases work efficiency.
[0029] Preferably, the bottom wall of the inner cylinder 2 is provided with a first detachable structure, and the bottom wall of the receiving cavity 11 is provided with a second detachable structure for detachable connection with the first detachable structure, so that the inner cylinder 11 can be installed inside the inner cylinder 2 through the second detachable structure.
[0030] Specifically, the first detachable structure is a locking post set on the bottom wall of the inner cylinder 2, and the second detachable structure is a locking hole for locking the locking post. That is to say, when the inner cylinder 2 is installed inside the outer cylinder 1, the locking post is locked in the locking hole, thereby preventing the inner cylinder 2 from moving within the receiving cavity 11.
[0031] In this embodiment, the outer cylinder 1 includes a first annular isolation layer 12 and a second annular isolation layer 13 with an outer diameter smaller than that of the first isolation layer 12. The inoculum layer 4 is disposed between the first isolation layer 12 and the second isolation layer 13, wherein a plurality of cultivation holes 121 are disposed in the first isolation layer 12 and a plurality of first permeation holes 131 are disposed in the second isolation layer 13. That is, the inoculum layer 4 is annular.
[0032] Preferably, a plurality of first permeation holes 131 are arranged around the top of the second isolation layer 13.
[0033] In this embodiment, the inner cylinder 2 is also provided with a transmission through hole 20, wherein the inner wall of the transmission through hole 20 of the inner cylinder 2 is provided with a plurality of third permeation holes at intervals. It should be understood that this embodiment can also supply water, gas or nutrient solution into the transmission through hole 20, and this water, gas or nutrient solution can permeate into the base material layer 5 through the third permeation holes to further replenish the nutrient solution in the base material layer 5.
[0034] Furthermore, the inner cylinder 2 includes a third annular isolation layer 21 and a fourth annular isolation layer 22 with an outer diameter smaller than that of the third isolation layer 21. The base material layer 5 is disposed between the third isolation layer 21 and the fourth isolation layer 22, wherein the outer diameter of the third isolation layer 21 is equal to the inner diameter of the second isolation layer 13, a plurality of second permeation holes are disposed in the third isolation layer 21, and a plurality of third permeation holes are disposed in the fourth isolation layer 22. That is to say, the base material layer 5 is annular.
[0035] It is understandable that the third permeation hole is a hole through which a person injects nutrient solution or water into the substrate layer 5 from the outside, while the second permeation hole and the first permeation hole 131 are set in a corresponding manner. The nutrient solution or water that enters the substrate layer 5 can enter the inoculum layer 4 through the second permeation hole and the first permeation hole 131 for the edible fungi to absorb.
[0036] Preferably, the bottom of the first isolation layer 12 is provided with a first discharge hole, the bottom of the second isolation layer 13 is provided with a second discharge hole, the bottom of the third isolation layer 21 is provided with a third discharge hole, and the bottom of the fourth isolation layer 22 is provided with a fourth discharge hole. It should be understood that, due to the growth requirements of edible fungi, they cannot come into contact with excessive moisture. Therefore, residual moisture or nutrient solution needs to settle to the bottom of the inoculum layer 4 and the substrate layer 5, and then be discharged through the adjacent discharge holes, creating a suitable growth environment for the edible fungi.
[0037] Furthermore, the tubular cultivation device for edible fungi also includes a cover 3, which is detachably attached to the top of the outer cylinder 1.
[0038] Preferably, the top of the cover 3 is provided with a handle 31, and the edge of the cover 3 extends downward to form an extension 32 that surrounds the outer cylinder. It should be understood that when replacing the base material layer 5, the cover 3 can be lifted by holding the handle 31.
[0039] Furthermore, the other side of the cover 3 is also provided with a locking groove 33, in which the top of the third isolation layer 21 is locked (that is, the top of the third isolation layer 21 is locked in the locking groove 33), so that the inner cylinder 2 can be brought out together when the cover 3 is lifted. Moreover, the cover 3 is also provided with a transmission hole 34 that communicates with the transmission through hole. When it is necessary to transport nutrient solution or water into the base material layer 5, it can be permeated into the base material layer 5 from the transmission hole 34 into the third permeation hole of the transmission through hole 20.
[0040] Specific working principle:
[0041] Once the nutrients in the substrate layer 5 have been absorbed by the edible fungi, the handle 31 can be used to open the cover 3, separating the inner cylinder 2 from the receiving cavity 11. Then, the substrate layer 5 in the inner cylinder 2 can be replaced, the nutrients in the substrate can be replenished, or a new inner cylinder 2 can be directly replaced. The replaced inner cylinder 2 can then be reinstalled into the receiving cavity 11 of the outer cylinder 1, and the cover 3 can be put on to complete the replacement of the substrate layer 5. If you want to add extra water or nutrients to the inoculum layer 4 and the substrate layer 5, you can inject them into the transmission through hole 20 through the transmission hole 34 of the cover 3. The water and nutrient solution that enters the substrate layer 5 will gradually permeate into the inoculum layer 4 through the second permeation hole and the first permeation hole 131, thereby providing nutrients for the edible fungi. The water that remains after being absorbed by the edible fungi will sink to the bottom of the inoculum layer 4 and then be discharged through the adjacent discharge hole.

Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes said element.
[0043] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
