Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of aeroponic bed technology, specifically relating to a potato aeroponic bed. Background Technology

[0002] Aeroponics provides a favorable growing environment for virus-free potato seedlings, enabling the roots to better absorb nutrients and water, promoting robust plant growth, and thus increasing the tuber formation rate of mini-tubers. Compared with traditional substrate cultivation, the average number of tubers per plant can reach 30 to 50, and in some cases more than 80, which is more than 20 times that of traditional substrate cultivation. Aeroponics technology allows for precise control of nutrient solution supply and environmental conditions, such as temperature, humidity, and light, creating optimal conditions for potato growth, accelerating growth, shortening the propagation cycle, and obtaining large quantities of high-quality seed potatoes more quickly, thereby accelerating the promotion of superior varieties.

[0003] Problems with existing technology:

[0004] In existing potato aeroponic beds, the support frame for potato seedlings and the spray pipe for nutrient solution are spaced at a fixed distance. This means that for potato seedlings with short roots, some nutrient solution droplets are lost during transport due to evaporation and dispersion, resulting in a reduced amount of nutrient solution reaching the roots. This makes it difficult to meet the seedlings' growth needs, leading to slow growth and yellowing leaves. Furthermore, the limited coverage and intensity of the nutrient solution sprayed from the nozzles result in significant differences in the amount of nutrient solution received by different parts of the root system, potentially causing uneven root development and affecting the seedlings' comprehensive absorption of nutrients. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a potato aeroponic bed that can solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0006] The specific technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0007] This utility model provides a potato aeroponic bed, comprising multiple sets of vertical rods, on which a collection support frame, a spray fixing frame, and a limiting fixing frame are provided. A lifting frame is movably sleeved between the multiple sets of vertical rods and overlapped on the limiting fixing frame. Multiple horizontal rods are provided inside the lifting frame. Multiple sets of symmetrical adjustment support mechanisms are provided on opposite sides of the outer periphery of the lifting frame. Multiple overlapping plates are provided on each of the multiple sets of vertical rods, and the adjustment support mechanism matches two horizontally corresponding overlapping plates.

[0008] The adjusting support mechanism includes a sleeve shaft, two movable plates, and two support plates. Multiple sets of mounting plates are detachably provided on the outer periphery of the lifting frame. The sleeve shaft is movably sleeved on the mounting plates, and the lower sides of the two movable plates are movably sleeved on the sleeve shaft and located between the mounting plates.

[0009] Using the aforementioned potato aeroponic bed, lifting the lifting frame causes two support plates on the adjusting support mechanism to rotate via bolts. Simultaneously, one side of the two support plates overlapping the other rotates and disengages, allowing for height adjustment of the lifting frame. After adjustment, the two support plates on the adjusting support mechanism overlap on the corresponding overlapping plates. At the same time, pressing down on the lifting frame causes the flange on the movable plate to press against the support plate, creating a restraint. This provides fixed support for the lifting frame, facilitating lowering adjustments during potato seedling cultivation. As the potato seedlings grow, the height of the lifting frame can be adjusted to accommodate root growth, thus improving the cultivation effect of the aeroponic bed.

[0010] Preferably, the spraying fixing frame is provided with a spraying pipe, the collection support frame is located below the spraying fixing frame and is provided with a collection frame, the spraying fixing frame is located below the limiting fixing frame, and the distance between the spraying fixing frame and the limiting fixing frame is set to between 150-300mm.

[0011] Preferably, a connecting plate is provided between the upper sides of the two movable plates, and two bolts are fitted on the connecting plate. The opposite sides of the two support plates are respectively fitted on the two bolts, and the bottom surfaces of the opposite ends of the two support plates overlap on two horizontally corresponding overlapping plates.

[0012] Preferably, both movable plates have vertical flanges at their upper ends, and the flanges press against the support plate.

[0013] Preferably, the lap plate is made of angle iron and is welded or screwed onto the vertical rod.

[0014] The beneficial effects are:

[0015] This invention allows for adjustment of the height of the lifting frame via a support mechanism, thereby adjusting the distance between the potato seedling roots and the spray pipe. This effectively improves the absorption of nutrient solution by the potato seedlings, ensuring even absorption of nutrients by the seedling roots. Furthermore, the support mechanism can be adjusted to raise the frame according to the root growth of the potato seedlings, facilitating the entire process of potato aeroponics and enhancing the cultivation effect of the aeroponic bed.

[0020] To make the objectives and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with embodiments. It should be understood that the following text is merely used to describe one or more specific embodiments of this utility model and does not strictly limit the scope of protection specifically claimed by this utility model.

[0021] like Figure 1-2 As shown, a potato aeroponic bed includes multiple sets of vertical rods 1, each set including two vertical rods 1. The multiple sets of vertical rods 1 are equipped with a collection support frame 3, a spray fixing frame 2, and a limiting fixing frame 6. A lifting frame 7 is movably sleeved between the multiple sets of vertical rods 1 and overlapped on the limiting fixing frame 6. Multiple horizontal rods are provided inside the lifting frame 7. Multiple sets of symmetrical adjustment support mechanisms 8 are provided on opposite sides of the outer periphery of the lifting frame 7. Multiple overlapping plates 9 are provided on each of the multiple sets of vertical rods 1, and the multiple overlapping plates 9 are composed of multiple sets of horizontally corresponding overlapping plates 9. The adjustment support mechanism 8 is matched with two horizontally corresponding overlapping plates 9.

[0022] The adjusting support mechanism 8 includes a sleeve shaft 801, two movable plates 803, and two support plates 806. Multiple sets of mounting plates 802 are detachably provided on the outer periphery of the lifting frame 7. The sleeve shaft 801 is movably sleeved on the mounting plates 802. The lower sides of the two movable plates 803 are movably sleeved on the sleeve shaft 801 and located between the mounting plates 802. With this arrangement, when the support plate 806 overlaps the overlapping plate 9, and the lifting frame 7 needs to be lowered and adjusted, the movable plate 803 can be pulled to rotate by relying on the sleeve shaft 801, thereby causing the support plate 806 to rotate and disengage from the overlapping plate 9. This facilitates the overlapping support adjustment of the support plate 806 and the lower overlapping plate 9.

[0023] As an optional implementation, a spraying pipe 4 is provided on the spraying fixing frame 2, and a collection support frame 3 is located below the spraying fixing frame 2. A collection frame 5 is provided on the collection support frame 3. The spraying fixing frame 2 is located below the limiting fixing frame 6. The distance between the spraying fixing frame 2 and the limiting fixing frame 6 is set to between 150-300mm. With this arrangement, the spraying pipe 4 on the spraying fixing frame 2 can fully spray and cover the bottom surface of the lifting frame 7 on the limiting fixing frame 6, thereby facilitating the absorption of nutrient solution when the roots of potato seedlings are short.

[0024] See attached document Figure 2A connecting plate 804 is provided between the upper sides of the two movable plates 803. Two bolts 805 are fitted on the connecting plate 804. The opposite sides of the two support plates 806 are respectively fitted on the two bolts 805. The bottom surfaces of the opposite ends of the two support plates 806 overlap on two horizontally corresponding overlapping plates 9. This arrangement makes it easy to rotate the support plates 806 onto the connecting plate 804 by means of the bolts 805 during installation, thereby improving the ease of installation of the support plates 806.

[0025] Furthermore, both movable plates 803 have vertical flanges at their upper ends, and the flanges press against the support plate 806. In this way, the flanges can be used to press the support plate 806, so that one side of the support plate 806 overlaps the overlapping plate 9, and the other side is rotatably connected to the connecting plate 804 by bolts 805. Then, the flanges are used to support the movable plate 803 and the lifting frame 7.

[0026] Furthermore, the overlapping plate 9 is made of angle iron, which is welded or screwed onto the vertical rod 1. This makes it easy to use the shape of the angle iron to overlap and support the support plate 806, and also makes it easy to fix the angle iron to the vertical rod 1 by screws or welding, thereby improving the installation effect.

[0027] Using the above structure, by lifting the lifting frame 7, the two support plates 806 on the adjusting support mechanism 8 are rotated by bolts 805. At the same time, the side of the two support plates 806 that overlaps with the overlapping plate 9 rotates and disengages. In this way, the lifting frame 7 can be adjusted in height. After adjustment, the two support plates 806 on the adjusting support mechanism 8 overlap with the corresponding overlapping plate 9. At the same time, the lifting frame 7 is pressed down, causing the flange on the movable plate 803 to press against the support plate 806 to form a restriction. In this way, the lifting frame 7 can be fixed and supported, which facilitates the lowering adjustment during potato seedling cultivation. As the potato seedlings grow, the height of the lifting frame 7 can be adjusted to accommodate root growth, thus improving the cultivation effect of the aeroponic bed.

[0028] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described or explained in this utility model, unless otherwise specified or limited, shall be implemented using conventional methods in the field.
