The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0022] This utility model embodiment provides a chili pepper root development observation and culture device, such as... Figure 1-4As shown, the chili pepper root development observation and cultivation device includes: a transparent cultivation rack 1; a placement plate 2 set on the transparent cultivation rack 1, the placement plate 2 being provided with multiple measuring rulers 201 for measuring the length of the cultivated chili pepper roots; multiple cultivation net frames 3 set on the placement plate 2 for cultivating chili peppers, the multiple cultivation net frames 3 corresponding to the multiple measuring rulers 201 respectively; two protective mechanisms set on the transparent cultivation rack 1 for protecting the cultivated chili peppers; and a water supply mechanism set on the transparent cultivation rack 1 for supplying water to the transparent cultivation rack 1.

[0023] In this embodiment, when cultivating chili peppers, the peppers are cultivated within a cultivation net frame 3. Nutrient solution is introduced into a transparent cultivation rack 1 via a water supply mechanism, allowing for hydroponic cultivation of the peppers. During the cultivation process, the root development of the peppers can be visually observed through the transparent cultivation rack 1, and the length of the root growth can be measured using a measuring ruler 201. This allows cultivators to better understand the root development of the peppers. Simultaneously, during the pepper growth process, two protective mechanisms protect both sides of the main stem of the pepper, preventing the cultivated peppers from falling over and improving the safety of pepper cultivation. This device allows for direct observation of the root development of the peppers during cultivation, enabling cultivators to better understand the root development of the peppers. It also protects both sides of the main stem of the cultivated pepper, preventing the cultivated peppers from falling over and improving the safety of pepper cultivation.

[0024] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the protective mechanism includes: a winch 4 fixedly installed on one side of the transparent cultivation rack 1; a protective rope 5 wound on the winch 4 for protecting the cultivated peppers; and two mounting rods 6 respectively disposed on both sides of the transparent cultivation rack 1, each mounting rod 6 having a positioning ring 7 fixedly installed on it, one end of the protective rope 5 being fixedly connected to one of the positioning rings 7, and the protective rope 5 passing through the other positioning ring 7.

[0025] In this embodiment, when using the protective mechanism, the worker removes the protective rope 5 from the winch 4. One end of the protective rope 5 is fixedly connected to the winch 4. Then, one end of the protective rope 5 is passed through the positioning ring 7 near the winch 4. The protective rope 5 is then pulled to one side of the main stem of the planted chili pepper. Subsequently, the other end of the protective rope 5 is fixedly connected to another positioning ring 7. The same operation is performed on the other protective rope 5 of the chili pepper. The two protective ropes 5 can protect both sides of the main stem of the chili pepper, thereby preventing the cultivated chili pepper from falling over and improving the safety of chili pepper cultivation.

[0026] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, the transparent culture rack 1 is provided with an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the height of the positioning ring 7. The adjustment mechanism includes: a lead screw 8 fixedly installed on the transparent culture rack 1; a slide plate 9 slidably installed on the lead screw 8, the slide plate 9 being fixedly connected to the mounting rod 6; and two nuts 10 threadedly installed on the lead screw 8, the two nuts 10 respectively abutting against the two sides of the two slide plates 9.

[0027] In this embodiment, when using the protective rope 5, the height of the positioning ring 7 is adjusted according to the growth of the chili pepper. During adjustment, the two nuts 10 are rotated to disengage from the sides of the sliding plate 9, and then the position of the sliding plate 9 on the screw 8 is adjusted to adjust the height of the positioning ring 7. After adjustment, the two nuts 10 are rotated to engage and fix the sides of the sliding plate 9, thereby fixing the positioning ring 7 after adjustment. This facilitates the adjustment of the height of the positioning ring 7 and the protective rope 5 according to the growth height of the chili pepper plant, thus providing better protection for the main stem of the chili pepper.

[0028] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, a guide rod 11 is fixedly installed on the transparent cultivation rack 1, and a guide hole 12 is provided on the slide plate 9. The guide hole 12 is adapted to the guide rod 11, and a ball bearing 13 is nested in the guide hole 12. The ball bearing 13 is in contact with the guide rod 11.

[0029] In this embodiment, when adjusting the position of the slide plate 9 on the guide rod 11, the slide plate 9 will move along the guide rod 11 at the same time to prevent the slide plate 9 from rotating randomly. At the same time, under the action of the ball bearing 13 contacting the guide rod 11, the slide plate 9 can move in a directional manner to prevent the slide plate 9 from causing wear on the lead screw 8.

[0030] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a protective plate 14 is provided on the transparent cultivation rack 1, and a plurality of clearance openings 15 are provided on the protective plate 14, and the plurality of clearance openings 15 correspond to the plurality of cultivation net racks 3 respectively.

[0031] In this embodiment, the protective plate 14 can protect the nutrient solution in the transparent cultivation rack 1 to avoid unnecessary evaporation, and the clearance opening 15 facilitates the growth of the cultivated peppers.

[0032] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the water supply mechanism includes: a first connecting pipe 16 fixedly installed on one side of the transparent culture rack 1; a water inlet pipe 17 disposed on the transparent culture rack 1, the water inlet pipe 17 being connected to the first connecting pipe 16, and the water outlet end of the first connecting pipe 16 extending into the transparent culture rack 1; and a second connecting pipe 19 fixedly installed on one side of the transparent culture rack 1, the second connecting pipe 19 being connected to a drain pipe 18, the drain pipe 18 being connected to the transparent culture rack 1.

[0033] In this embodiment, the first connecting pipe 16 is first connected to the corresponding pump source pipe. When adding nutrient solution to the transparent culture rack 1, the water inlet pipe 17 is opened, and the nutrient solution enters the water inlet pipe 17 through the first connecting pipe 16, thereby adding the nutrient solution to the transparent culture rack 1. At the same time, when it is necessary to discharge the nutrient solution in the transparent culture rack 1, the drain pipe 18 is opened, and the nutrient solution enters the second connecting pipe 19 through the drain pipe 18 for discharge.

[0034] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a positioning block is fixedly installed at the bottom of the protective plate 14, and a positioning groove is provided at the top of the transparent cultivation rack 1, wherein the positioning groove and the positioning block are adapted to and connected.

[0035] In this embodiment, the stability of the protective plate 14 placed on the transparent cultivation rack 1 can be improved by the cooperation of the positioning groove and the positioning block.

[0036] In summary, compared with related technologies, this device allows for direct observation of root development during chili pepper cultivation, enabling growers to better understand the root development of chili peppers. It also provides protection for both sides of the main stem of the chili pepper plant, preventing it from lodging and improving the safety of chili pepper cultivation.
