Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of seedling cultivation device technology, and more specifically, to a device for simultaneously germinating and hulling buckwheat. Background Technology

[0002] Buckwheat seedling cultivation is similar to that of most other crops. It requires cultivating buckwheat seeds separately until they germinate, and then removing the sprouts for planting.

[0003] In the process of germinating and cultivating buckwheat seedlings, key steps include controlling light, temperature and humidity, and watering. After germination, the seed coat may remain on the leaves of the buckwheat seedlings, requiring manual removal, which is a significant workload for workers, as extreme care must be taken to avoid damaging the seedlings. For large-scale industrial cultivation, automated irrigation equipment is commonly used. The soil or sand (culture medium) used in the cultivation process is usually placed in a fixed location and reused repeatedly. However, after germination, some buckwheat seed coats remain in the soil or sand. After multiple batches of use, the large amount of residual seed coats hinders the penetration and absorption of water and nutrients. Cleaning or replacing this culture medium is very troublesome, significantly impacting production efficiency. Therefore, a more efficient buckwheat germination device could be designed.

Detailed Implementation

[0023] Example

[0024] The following description, in conjunction with specific embodiments, further illustrates the point, as shown in the appendix. Figure 1 -Appendix Figure 7As shown, the device for simultaneously germinating and hulling buckwheat in this embodiment includes a box 11 with an open top, a cultivation basket 21 slidably disposed within the box 11, a drive device 40 for driving the cultivation basket 21 to rise and fall, a water inlet pipe 14 connected to the box 11, a drain pipe 15 connected to the box 11, a water spraying device 30 communicating with the bottom of the box 11, a heating device disposed at the bottom of the box 11, a pair of through holes 12 respectively opened on opposite side walls of the box 11, and a baffle 16 slidably disposed in the pair of through holes 12; the cultivation basket 21 contains coarse sand and is positioned above the baffle 16; the bottom of the cultivation basket 21 has multiple drainage holes 22, and the water outlet of the water spraying device 30 is located above the box 11 and faces the cultivation basket 21. Specifically, during use, buckwheat seeds are laid inside the coarse sand in the cultivation basket 21, and water is sprayed onto the cultivation basket 21 using the watering device 30, which draws water from the box 11 to promote germination. After germination, the buckwheat husks remain in the coarse sand due to friction from the sand particles. At this point, the buckwheat sprouts can be directly pulled out of the coarse sand without further hulling. After cultivation is complete, the cultivation basket 21 is lifted using the drive device 40, and the buckwheat seedlings can be manually removed from the cultivation basket 21. After multiple cultivation cycles, the baffle 16 below the cultivation basket 21 can be removed. Then, the cultivation basket 21 is lowered to the bottom of the box 11 using the drive device 40, so that the cultivation basket 21 is submerged in water. At this time, the buckwheat hulls in the coarse sand particles can float on the water surface. Water is injected into the box 11 through the water inlet pipe 14, so that the water level is at the through hole 12. The buckwheat hulls can then overflow from the through hole 12, eliminating the need to separately clean the buckwheat hulls in the coarse sand particles. This method also allows for the cleaning and disinfection of the coarse sand particles, further reducing the operational steps in buckwheat seedling cultivation and improving seedling efficiency. It should be noted that the diameter of the drainage hole 22 is smaller than the diameter of the coarse sand particles.

[0025] In this embodiment, an electric heating element 13 is installed at the bottom of the box 11. Specifically, the electric heating element 13 can heat the water in the box 11 to a suitable temperature, creating a suitable temperature and humidity environment for the buckwheat seedlings. Furthermore, after immersing the cultivation basket 21 and coarse sand in the water at the bottom of the box 11, the electric heating element 13 can be used to heat the water to a high temperature, thereby achieving the purpose of disinfecting and sterilizing the coarse sand. Disinfection can also be achieved by adding a disinfectant.

[0026] The watering device 30 in this embodiment includes multiple watering pipes 31 located on the upper side wall of the housing 11, nozzles 33 located at the ends of the watering pipes 31, a water supply pipe 32 connected to the multiple watering pipes 31, and a water pump connected to the water supply pipe 32. The multiple watering pipes 31 are distributed along the length of the housing 11, and the nozzles 33 are positioned facing the culture basket 21. The water inlet of the water pump is connected to the interior of the housing 11. The watering device 30 also includes a transfer box 34, which is connected to the housing 11 via a connecting pipe 35. The water pump is located in the transfer box 34, and a thermometer is installed in the transfer box 34. Specifically, water in the housing 11 first flows into the transfer box 34 through the connecting pipe 35, the thermometer accurately measures its temperature, and then the water pump delivers it to each watering pipe 31 through the water supply pipe 32. Finally, the water is sprayed out through the nozzles 33, evenly spraying it onto the culture basket 21. By setting up the transfer box 34, the temperature of the water sprayed onto the buckwheat seeds can be controlled more precisely, mainly to avoid the temperature from being too high.

[0027] In this embodiment, a sealing strip is provided between the upper surface of the baffle 16 and the inner top wall of the through hole 12, and gaps are provided between the two ends of the baffle 16 and the inner walls of the two ends of the box 11. Specifically, excess water can flow back into the box 11 through the gaps between the two ends of the baffle 16 and the inner walls of the box 11, and will not leak out from the sides of the baffle 16. This can prevent excessive water loss.

[0028] In this embodiment, an elastic connector 50 is provided between the baffle 16 and the housing 11. Multiple elastic connectors 50 are provided, evenly distributed on both sides of the housing 11. Each elastic connector 50 includes a connecting plate 51 connected to the side wall of the housing 11, a spring 52 connected to the connecting plate 51, a fixing block 53 located at the end of the spring 52 away from the connecting plate 51, a hook 54 fixedly mounted on the fixing block 53, and a connecting rod 17 located on the side wall of the baffle 16. The hook 54 is attached to the connecting rod 17. Specifically, after the baffle 16 is inserted into the through hole 12, the elastic connector 50 can make the baffle 16 fit tightly against the inner top wall of the through hole 12, achieving a better sealing effect. The specific operation is as follows: after the baffle 16 is inserted into place, pull down the hook 54 so that it hangs on the connecting rod 17. After each hook 54 is hung on the connecting rod 17, the elastic force of the spring 52 can pull the baffle 16 to keep it close to the inner wall of the through hole 12.

[0029] The driving device 40 in this embodiment includes a bracket 41 mounted above the housing 11, a motor 43 mounted on the bracket 41, a winding roller 42 mounted on the output shaft of the motor 43, a pair of hanging rings 23 respectively located at both ends of the upper side of the culture basket 21, and a pair of pull ropes 44; the pair of pull ropes 44 are respectively connected to the pair of hanging rings 23, and the pair of hanging rings 23 are simultaneously wound around the winding roller 42. Specifically, the motor 43 drives the winding roller 42 to rotate, thereby enabling the pull ropes 44 to be wound or unwound, thus adjusting the height of the culture basket 21 by pulling the ropes 44.

[0030] In summary, the device for simultaneously germinating and hulling buckwheat in this embodiment involves spreading buckwheat seeds inside coarse sand in a cultivation basket 21 during use, and using a water spraying device 30 to spray water from the box 11 to promote buckwheat seed germination. After germination, the buckwheat hull remains in the coarse sand due to friction from the coarse sand particles. At this point, the buckwheat sprouts can be directly pulled out of the coarse sand without the need for separate hulling. After multiple cultivation cycles, the baffle 16 below the cultivation basket 21 can be removed, and then the cultivation basket 21 can be lowered to the bottom of the box 11 by the drive device 40, so that the cultivation basket 21 is submerged in water. At this time, the buckwheat hulls in the coarse sand particles can float on the water surface. Water is injected into the box 11 through the water inlet pipe 14, so that the water surface is at the through hole 12. At this time, the buckwheat hulls can overflow from the through hole 12. There is no need to clean the buckwheat hulls in the coarse sand particles separately. In addition, the coarse sand particles can be cleaned and disinfected, which can better reduce the operation steps of buckwheat seedling cultivation and improve the seedling cultivation efficiency.

Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
