Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of plant cutting propagation technology, and in particular to a cutting propagation device for Liquidambar formosana. Background Technology

[0002] As a tree species with high economic and ornamental value, the cultivation of its seedlings has attracted widespread attention. Cutting propagation is a common technique for the asexual reproduction of Liquidambar formosana, a method that preserves the superior traits of the parent plant. During the cutting process, to ensure the survival rate of the cuttings, a stable and suitable growing environment needs to be provided, especially with strict requirements regarding light, water, and nutrient supply.

[0003] To meet these conditions, existing technologies typically employ various cutting boxes or propagation beds for cultivation. However, in practical use, these devices have been found to have some shortcomings. First, *Liquidambar formosana* cuttings are highly sensitive to light intensity in the early stages of rooting. They require sufficient diffused light for photosynthesis while avoiding strong direct sunlight that could cause excessive water evaporation and wilting. Existing cutting devices often use fixed shade nets or lack shading functionality, failing to flexibly switch between shading and lighting states according to changes in external light intensity (such as cloudy or rainy days or weak light in the morning or evening), thus affecting the survival rate of the cuttings.

[0004] Furthermore, in terms of water and fertilizer management, frequent spraying is required to keep the substrate moist. Excess water and nutrient solution leak to the bottom of the container, and if not cleaned in time, they can easily breed bacteria, affecting the health of the cuttings. The waste liquid collection structure of existing devices is usually quite simple, mostly an integrated tray or a collection box that is not easy to disassemble, making cleaning and maintenance very cumbersome, time-consuming, and labor-intensive. At the same time, this seeping water and fertilizer containing nutrients is directly treated as waste liquid, which also wastes resources.

[0005] Therefore, this utility model proposes a spruce cutting propagation device to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art. Utility Model Content

[0006] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a maple cutting propagation device, which aims to improve the problems of the existing maple cutting propagation device, such as the inability to fix and retract the shade net, the inconvenience of switching the shade state, and the cumbersome operation of waste liquid collection and cleaning.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a spruce cutting propagation device, comprising: a cutting propagation box, a cutting pot disposed in the cutting propagation box, a collection mechanism disposed at the bottom of the cutting propagation box, and a shading mechanism installed on the cutting propagation box.

[0008] The bottom of the cutting pot is provided with a water outlet, and the collection mechanism includes a removable collection box.

[0009] The shading mechanism includes a take-up and release roller rotatably mounted on a support frame and a shading net wound around the take-up and release roller.

[0010] The collection mechanism also includes a limiting frame fixed inside the cutting propagation box, a locking plate connected to the collection box, and a pull plate for driving the locking plate away from the limiting frame. These components are combined to achieve stable locking and convenient unlocking of the collection box.

[0011] Preferably, the shading mechanism further includes a locking shaft and a limiting rod for fixing the unfolded position of the shading net.

[0012] Preferably, the collection mechanism further includes a support plate fixed to the collection box and a spring disposed between the card plate and the support plate, the spring being used to apply an elastic force to the card plate to engage it with the limiting frame.

[0013] Preferably, the front end of the collection box is provided with a handle for easy removal.

[0014] Preferably, the sycamore cutting propagation device further includes a circulating water pump and a nozzle. The inlet of the circulating water pump is connected to the collection tank, and its outlet is connected to the nozzle through a connecting pipe. The nozzle is positioned above the cutting pot.

[0015] Preferably, the sycamore cutting propagation device further includes a filter screen disposed at the upper opening of the collection box for filtering the liquid flowing down from the cutting pot.

[0016] Preferably, the cutting propagation box is also provided with a top cover.

[0017] Preferably, the top cover is provided with an observation window and a handle.

[0018] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0019] 1. In this utility model, by setting up a shading mechanism including a take-up and release roller, a shading net, a locking shaft and a limiting rod, the problem that the shading net is usually fixed in the prior art and cannot be flexibly put away or unfolded according to weather changes is solved. The technical effect of being able to quickly switch between shading and lighting states, thereby creating a suitable growth environment for the cuttings according to the lighting conditions is achieved.

[0020] 2. In this utility model, by setting a collection mechanism including a limit frame, a locking plate, a spring and a pull plate for unlocking and locking, the problem of fixed structure of waste liquid collection box in the prior art, cumbersome cleaning process and inconvenient operation is solved.

[0029] 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.

[0030] Reference Figures 1-6 The present invention provides an embodiment of a sycamore cutting propagation device, which aims to solve the problems existing in the prior art, such as the inability to fix and retract the shade net, the inconvenience of switching the shade state, and the cumbersome operation of waste liquid collection and cleaning.

[0031] The sycamore cutting propagation device includes a cutting propagation box 1, which serves as the base of the entire device. A cutting pot 6 is placed inside the cutting propagation box 1. The cutting pot 6 is used to hold the substrate and sycamore cuttings. A drainage hole 7 is provided at the bottom of the cutting pot 6. A collection mechanism 8 is provided at the bottom of the cutting propagation box 1. The collection mechanism 8 includes a removable collection box 801.

[0032] The shading mechanism 5 includes a support frame 501 fixedly connected to the upper outer side of the cutting propagation box 1. A retractable roller 502 is rotatably connected to the support frame 501. A shading net 503 is wrapped around the outer circumference of the retractable roller 502. The shading net 503 can be unfolded and retracted by rotating the retractable roller 502. The shading mechanism 5 also includes a locking shaft 504 set at the free end of the shading net 503 and a limiting rod 505 fixed to the cutting propagation box 1 or the support frame 501. When the shading net 503 is unfolded to the predetermined position, the locking shaft 504 and the limiting rod 505 engage with each other to fix the position of the shading net 503. This retractable shading structure ensures that the shading can be conveniently selected to block sunlight or allow full sunlight according to the intensity of external light, providing a suitable growth environment for the spruce cuttings.

[0033] In order to achieve stable locking and convenient unlocking of the collection box 801, the collection mechanism 8 also includes a support plate 804 fixed to the upper part of the collection box 801, and a spring 805 disposed between the card plate 806 and the support plate 804. The spring 805 is used to apply a downward elastic force to the card plate 806 so that it is stably engaged with the limit frame 803, and a handle 802 is also fixedly connected to the front outer wall of the collection box 801.

[0034] In order to realize the automated spraying and recycling of water and fertilizer, the device also includes a circulating water pump 10, a connecting pipe 11 and a nozzle 12. The inlet of the circulating water pump 10 is connected to the inside of the collection box 801 through a pipe, and its outlet is sealed to the nozzle 12 through the connecting pipe 11. The nozzle 12 is set above the cutting pot 6. Furthermore, a filter screen 9 is provided at the upper opening of the collection box 801.

[0035] In order to protect the cutting environment and facilitate observation, the top of the cutting propagation box 1 is also equipped with a top cover 2, and an observation window 3 is opened on the top cover 2 and a handle 4 is fixed on its surface.

[0036] Working principle: In the process of using the sycamore cutting propagation device, firstly, the cutting propagation box 1 serves as the base of the device to support the sycamore. When performing the sycamore cutting operation, the prepared sycamore cuttings are inserted into the substrate in the cutting pot 6. The drainage hole 7 on the cutting pot 6 ensures the flow of water and nutrient solution in the substrate. The top cover 2 of the device provides initial protection to prevent external debris from falling in. At the same time, with the observation window 3, it is convenient for personnel to check the growth status of the sycamore cuttings in the cutting pot 6 at any time. The handle 4 facilitates the opening and closing of the top cover 2.

[0037] When shading is required, the shading mechanism 5 can quickly provide shading to prevent direct sunlight from hitting the vegetation. By rotating the take-up and release roller 502, the shading net 503 wrapped around it can be taken up and released. The support frame 501 provides stable support for the take-up and release roller 502, while the locking shaft 504 and the limiting rod 505 can fix the take-up and release position of the shading net 503. Thus, the shading net 503 can be unfolded according to the light intensity to create a suitable light environment for the maple cuttings and prevent strong direct sunlight from affecting the growth of the cuttings.

[0038] In the water and fertilizer supply stage, the circulating water pump 10 starts, transporting the water or nutrient solution stored in the collection tank 801 to the nozzle 12 through the connecting pipe 11. The nozzle 12 sprays the water and fertilizer onto the substrate and the maple cuttings in the cutting pot 6, meeting the water and fertilizer needs of the cuttings. Excess water and fertilizer will flow down through the drainage hole 7 of the cutting pot 6. When passing through the filter screen 9, the filter screen 9 can filter out impurities in the water and fertilizer, and then enter the collection tank 801 to realize the recycling of water and fertilizer. The collection tank 801 in the collection mechanism 8 01 can also be used to store recycled water and fertilizer as well as waste liquid generated during the cutting process. When it is necessary to clean the collection box 801, pull the pull plate 807 to make it move upward. By pulling the pull plate 807 and the support plate 804 to squeeze the spring 805, the locking plate 806 is driven to disengage from the limit frame 803 to unlock. After unlocking, the collection box 801 can be stably placed in the device and smoothly pulled out by pulling the handle 802, which is convenient for cleaning the collection box 801 and treating waste liquid.
