[0002] Seed soaking for germination is a method that activates the growth potential of seeds by soaking them, thereby promoting rapid germination. The basic principle of soaking for germination is to soak the seeds so that they absorb water, break the dormancy of the seeds, and activate their inherent germination ability.
[0003] The prior art, disclosed in patent publication number CN219999962U, presents the following technical solution: a seed germination soaking device. The device includes a soaking tank. Several sets of evenly distributed fixed support piles are bolted to the bottom of the soaking tank. A control display panel is bolted to one side of the soaking tank. An upper sealing cover is rotatably connected to the top of the soaking tank via a rotating shaft. A water inlet is bolted to the top of the upper sealing cover. A fixed handle is bolted to the top of the upper sealing cover. A glass window is bolted to the inner wall of the upper sealing cover.
[0004] The above-mentioned technical solution involves soaking seeds in a soaking tank. The stirring structure may damage germinating seeds due to stirring. Furthermore, after the seeds have germinated, manually removing them from the soaking tank can further damage the buds, and the process is slow. Utility Model Content

[0016] As a further preferred embodiment of this technical solution, two insertion slots are provided at both ends of the upper part of the cylinder, and one insertion slot is provided at both ends of the upper part of the soaking tank. The insertion slots are aligned with each other, and a insertion plate is inserted between the insertion slots. Limiting plates are fixedly connected to both sides of the insertion plate to prevent the insertion plate from falling into the soaking tank.
[0017] The above technical solution can fix the seed placement tube in the soaking tank, preventing the seed placement tube from shaking and squeezing and damaging the germ that has emerged from the tube.
[0018] As a further preferred embodiment of this technical solution, a drain pipe is provided on the outer wall of the soaking tank and below the support base, and a valve is provided on the drain pipe.
[0019] As a further preferred embodiment of this technical solution, a gap is provided between the soaking tank and the seed placement cylinder.
[0020] This utility model provides a seed soaking and germination device, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0021] (1) This utility model sets a seed placement tube in the soaking tank. The seed placement tube can be taken out or put in by lifting the rope. The tube body and the bottom of the tube are connected by an arc-shaped positioning block, an arc-shaped positioning groove and a screw, which facilitates the separation of the tube body and the bottom of the tube, so that the seeds can flow out. Compared with the traditional tilting method of taking out seeds, it can avoid damage to the germinated seeds, reduce friction or collision that causes the germ to break, and the separation of the tube body and the bottom of the tube can quickly take out the seeds, reducing the amount of seeds left in the tube.

A gap is provided between the soaking tank 1 and the seed placement cylinder 3. The seed placement cylinder 3 includes a cylinder body 31 and a cylinder bottom 34. Arc-shaped positioning blocks 33 are arranged circumferentially at the bottom of the cylinder body 31. Arc-shaped positioning grooves 35 are arranged circumferentially at the upper end of the cylinder bottom 34. The arc-shaped positioning blocks 33 are all engaged within the arc-shaped positioning grooves 35. A screw thread is used between the arc-shaped positioning blocks 33 and the arc-shaped positioning grooves 35. All holes are threaded with screws 36, and a lifting rope 32 is provided on the inner side of the upper part of the cylinder 31. By setting a seed placement cylinder 3 in the soaking tank 1, the seed placement cylinder 3 can be taken out or put in by lifting rope 32. The cylinder 31 and the bottom 34 are connected by an arc-shaped positioning block 33, an arc-shaped positioning groove 35 and screws 36, which facilitates the separation of the cylinder 31 and the bottom 34, so that the seeds can flow out. Compared with the traditional tilting method of taking out seeds, it can avoid damage to germinating seeds, reduce friction or collision that could break the germ, and the separation shell between the cylinder 31 and the bottom 34 can quickly remove the seeds, reducing the amount of seeds left in the cylinder.
[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the inner walls of the soaking tank 1 are provided with limiting grooves 18, and limiting blocks 191 are engaged in the limiting grooves 18. Mesh cover plates 19 are fixedly connected between the limiting blocks 191. The upper end of the mesh cover plate 19 is provided with a handle 192. The mesh cover plate 19 abuts against the upper end of the cylinder 31. The mesh cover plate 19 can cover the top of the cylinder 31 to prevent suspended seeds from drifting into the soaking tank 1.
[0031] like Figure 3 As shown, a support base 12 is provided on the bottom side of the soaking tank 1. A filter screen 15 is snapped onto the inner wall of the soaking tank 1 and located on the upper end of the support base 12. The filter screen 15 can intercept impurities floating out of the tank and can be removed for cleaning later. The bottom 34 of the tank is supported on the filter screen 15. A heating element 13 and a temperature sensor 14 are installed inside the support base 12. A control module 11 is installed outside the soaking tank 1. The control module 11 is electrically connected to the heating element 13 and the temperature sensor 14. The heating element 13 and the temperature sensor 14 can measure the temperature of the soaking water in real time, so that the seeds are soaked at the most suitable temperature, thereby improving the germination efficiency.
[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, two insertion slots are provided at both ends of the upper part of the cylinder 31, and two insertion slots 16 are provided at both ends of the upper part of the soaking tank 1. Insertion slots 16 and 2 are aligned. Insertion plates 17 are inserted between insertion slots 16 and 2. Limiting plates 171 are fixedly connected to both sides of the outside of the insertion plates 17 to prevent the insertion plates 17 from falling into the soaking tank 1. The insertion slots 16, 2, and 17 can fix the seed placement cylinder 3 in the soaking tank 1, and prevent the seed placement cylinder 3 from shaking and squeezing and damaging the germ that has emerged from the cylinder.
[0033] This utility model provides a seed soaking and germination device, the specific working principle of which is as follows: the seeds are poured into the seed placement cylinder 3, and the user holds the seed placement cylinder 3 by the carrying rope 32 and places it into the soaking tank 1. The position is adjusted so that the first insertion slot 16 is aligned with the second insertion slot, and the insertion plate 17 is inserted to fix it. Then the limiting block 191 is inserted into the limiting groove 18, and the mesh cover plate 19 is slid to abut against the upper end of the seed placement cylinder 3. Then soaking water is injected into the seed placement cylinder 3 and submerged. The heating element 13 and the temperature sensor 14 are operated by the control module 11 until the water temperature is a suitable soaking temperature.
[0034] After soaking, the user takes out the mesh cover 19 and lifts the seed placement cylinder 3 by the carrying rope 32 and places it in the basin. Then, the user loosens the screws 36 around the cylinder to separate the cylinder body 31 from the bottom 34, allowing the soaked seeds to flow out.
[0035] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
