Detailed Implementation

[0035] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model. It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present utility model can be combined with each other.

[0036] Reference Figures 1 to 8 This embodiment describes a vertical planting frame with a multi-layer electric water and fertilizer rotatable circular flat planting tray, which includes three parts: a three-dimensional support frame, a planting tray 4, and a water source.

[0037] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment takes a three-layer example. The three-dimensional support frame includes: a support column 1 and three support plates 6. The support column 1 is a hollow tubular structure with openings at both ends. The three support plates 6 are stacked and fixed on the support column 1, so that the support column 1 is divided into three planting segments along its axial direction. A protective cover 9 is provided at the top opening of the support column 1 to prevent foreign objects from entering the support column 1.

[0038] Each support disc 6 contains a positioning ring 12, which is coaxial with the support column 1. Multiple grooves 10 are provided at the bottom of the support disc 6 within the positioning ring 12, and rolling devices are provided in both the grooves 10 and on the ring wall of the positioning ring 12. In this embodiment, the rolling device located in the groove 10 is a bullseye wheel 11, and the rolling device located on the ring wall is a bullseye wheel assembly 13.

[0039] Each support plate 6 contains a planting tray 4. The planting tray 4 comprises three concentric ring walls arranged from the inside out with the support column 1. A lower base is provided between the innermost and middle ring walls, forming a planting area. The lower base has multiple through holes. An upper base is provided between the outermost and middle ring walls, forming a rolling area. The planting area sits on the rolling device, and the rolling area cooperates with the positioning ring 12, allowing the planting tray 4 to rotate relative to the support plate 6. In practical applications, a certain space is left between the positioning ring 12 and the upper base of the planting tray 4, preventing interference with the edge of the positioning ring 12 and the uppermost edge of the bullseye wheel assembly 13, and ensuring that the rotation of the planting tray 4 is not hindered.

[0040] like Figures 5 to 7 As shown, in this embodiment, the planting tray 4 includes a lower half tray 14 and an upper half tray 15. Both the lower half tray 14 and the upper half tray 15 are semi-circular in shape, and an overlapping insert is provided at their intersection. In this embodiment, the overlapping insert is fixed to each other. When the lower half tray 14 and the upper half tray 15 overlap each other through the overlapping insert, they form a disc-shaped planting tray 4. A rotating handle 16 is provided on the upper surface of the bottom of the planting tray 4.

[0041] Each planting section is provided with a drain outlet 5 and a water inlet 8. The drain outlet 5 is higher than the innermost ring wall. The water inlet 8 is connected to the planting area through the gap between the support plate 6 and the planting plate 4 and the through hole on the bottom. Each planting section corresponds to a water and fertilizer pipe 2 and a drain pipe 3. The water and fertilizer pipe 2 and the drain pipe 3 are both located inside the support column 1. One end of the water and fertilizer pipe 2 is connected to the water inlet 8, and the other end of the water and fertilizer pipe 2 is connected to the water source. One end of the drain pipe 3 is connected to the drain outlet 5, and the other end of the drain pipe 3 is connected to the outside of the support column 1.

[0042] The three-dimensional support frame provides support for the planting trays 4 and facilitates watering or fertilization. The central support column 1 is hollow, and the water and fertilizer pipes 2 can supply water or fertilizer to the planting trays 4 on different shelves. The drain outlet 5 must be positioned higher than the inlet 8, and the water level in the pool must be lower than the water level in the support tray 6. When there is a large amount of water supplied, and the water level exceeds the substrate surface, the drain outlet 5 can drain water or fertilize, and the discharged liquid flows back to the pool through the drain pipe 3. A filter plug 7 is provided at the drain outlet 5, and the mesh size can be set according to the planting substrate to prevent large particles from clogging the pipe.

[0043] like Figure 1 and 8 As shown, the water source includes: a water tank, an electric pump rod 19, a water distributor 23, an inlet pipe, a faucet 18, a manual valve 27, and an electric valve 28.

[0044] The water tank is used to store irrigation water. The electric water pump 19 is fixed to the inner wall of the water tank by fixing screws 21 and fixing device 24, and the water inlet of the electric water pump 19 is located at the bottom of the water tank. The water outlet of the electric water pump 19 is connected to the other end of the water and fertilizer pipe 2 corresponding to each planting section through the water distributor 23, and the other end of the drain pipe 3 corresponding to each planting section is connected to the inside of the water tank. An electrical control cabinet 29 is provided on the outer wall of the water tank, and the electrical control cabinet 29 contains a controller for controlling the start or stop of the electric water pump 19.

[0045] Each water distributor 23 is equipped with a regulating valve 25 between itself and each water and fertilizer pipe 2. The regulating valve 25 is used to regulate the amount of water flowing into the water and fertilizer pipe 2.

[0046] A safety valve 26 is also provided between the regulating valve 25 and the water-fertilizer pipe 2. The safety valve 26 is used to overflow when the water pressure exceeds the water pressure range that the electric pump rod 19, the regulating valve 25, or the water-fertilizer pipe 2 can withstand, thereby protecting the electric pump rod 19, the regulating valve 25, and the water-fertilizer pipe 2.

[0047] One end of the water inlet pipe is connected to an external water source, and the other end passes through the wall of the pool and extends into the interior of the pool.

[0048] The other end of the water inlet pipe is equipped with a faucet 18, and a manual valve 27 is provided on the water inlet pipe. An electric valve 28 is provided in the passage between the faucet 18 and the manual valve 27. The manual valve 27 and the faucet 18 are both kept open under normal working conditions of the vertical planting rack of the multi-layer electric water and fertilizer rotatable circular flat planting tray.

[0049] When adding water or preparing fertilizer, an electric valve 28 is generally used to control whether water flows out. When water or fertilizer is added to the pool, if the water level exceeds the specified height of the water level gauge 22, an electrical signal will be emitted, and the electric valve 28 will close; at the same time, an overflow hole is also opened on the pool wall. The electric valve 28, the electric pump rod 19, and the water level gauge 22 can be powered through the upper wire hole 30. There is an electric control button 35 on the outside of the electrical control cabinet 29, which controls the electric valve 28 and the electric pump rod 19. A filter 32 is installed at the water inlet of the electric pump rod 19 to prevent large particles from being sucked in and to protect the electric pump rod 19.

[0050] This embodiment uses a stacked planting tray combination. Under the condition of being supported and fixedly supported by the bullseye wheel in the groove of the support tray, the planting tray group and the bullseye wheel in the groove cooperate with each other during rotation to realize the combined use of the planting tray group and the support tray.

[0051] This embodiment features an N-shaped structure on the edge of the planting tray and back-to-back N-shaped bullseye wheel sets for good positioning. When rotation is required, the back-to-back N-shaped bullseye wheel sets installed on the concentric positioning rings of the inner and outer edges of the planting tray and the outer circle of the support tray are tangent to each other. Furthermore, the planting tray and the support tray have a certain height gap, which allows for smooth rotation, low resistance, and no interference between them.

[0052] While specific embodiments of the present invention have been described herein with reference to them, it should be understood that these embodiments are merely examples of the principles and applications of the present invention. Therefore, it should be understood that many modifications can be made to the exemplary embodiments, and other arrangements can be designed without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined by the appended claims. It should be understood that different dependent claims and features described herein can be combined in ways different from those described in the original claims. It is also understood that features described in conjunction with individual embodiments can be used in other described embodiments.
