Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of Chinese medicinal herb cultivation technology, and in particular to a green cultivation rack for Chinese medicinal herbs. Background Technology

[0002] Different varieties of Chinese medicinal herbs have varying requirements for light intensity and duration, as well as water needs. Excessive soil moisture leads to poor aeration, reduced effective components, and root hypoxia, resulting in poor growth and increased susceptibility to root rot and sclerotinia in some rhizomes. Conversely, insufficient soil moisture fails to meet the plant's physiological needs, causing wilting, and accelerates the decomposition of soil organic matter, leading to nutrient deficiencies. In space-constrained environments, intercropping or tiered trellis planting can be employed. For sun-loving seedlings, 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily, with unobstructed views, is essential. Scientific management of space, water, and light can significantly improve the yield and effective component content of Chinese medicinal herbs.

[0003] For example, patent application number CN202323076036.1 discloses a seedling tray for easy transplanting of Chinese medicinal herbs. The movable frames are hinged to the front and rear of the upper part of the seedling tray body; the fixed frames are L-shaped, with four squares of rounded corners distributed on the outside of the seedling tray body; the bottom of the fixed frames is fixed to a placement plate by support legs; a lifting mechanism is located on the placement plate and connected to the seedling tray body; this facilitates the overall movement of the seedling tray body, improving practicality; when transplanting is needed, the seedlings can be separated from the cultivation soil, allowing the Chinese medicinal herbs to be pulled out along with the cultivation soil, facilitating transplanting. However, because the Chinese medicinal herbs are uniformly cultivated in the seedling tray, the bottom of the tray is in a closed state, which poses a risk of root rot during rainy days. Opening drainage holes at the bottom of the seedling tray can effectively improve this problem; however, the drainage holes can cause water to accumulate in the tray and flow onto the placement plate, thus affecting the working environment of the cultivation area, which needs further improvement. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model proposes a green cultivation rack for Chinese medicinal herbs, which solves the shortcomings of existing methods.

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0023] according to Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figures 3 and 4, this embodiment proposes a green cultivation rack for Chinese medicinal herbs, including a support frame. A cultivation group is provided on each of the left and right sides of the support frame. The cultivation group includes multiple cultivation boxes 2, and the bottom of the cultivation box 2 is provided with several ventilation holes 14.

[0024] The support frame includes two triangular frames 1, and multiple reinforcing plates 6 are provided between the two triangular frames 1. The left and right ends of the reinforcing plates 6 are fixedly connected to the two triangular frames 1. A water storage tray 5 is provided between the two triangular frames 1, and the left and right ends of the water storage tray 5 are engaged with the bottom of the two triangular frames 1.

[0025] The cultivation box 2 has a water collection tray structure at its bottom, which is fixedly connected to the outside of the triangular frame 1. The water collection tray structure is detachably connected to the cultivation box 2, and a guide is provided between the water collection tray structure and the water storage tray 5. When the cultivation box 2 is full of water, the water will flow into the water collection tray structure through the air vents 14 at the bottom of the cultivation box 2. Each water collection tray structure will guide the water into the water collection tray through the guide. There is a gap between the water collection tray structure and the air vents 14, which will not affect the air circulation at the bottom of the soil, effectively preventing root rot and preventing wastewater from flowing around, thus ensuring the ground environment of the cultivation area.

[0026] The detachable installation of the water receiving tray structure and the water storage tray 5 makes it easy for staff to replace and clean the water receiving tray structure and the water storage tray 5, and facilitates daily maintenance.

[0027] It is worth explaining in detail that the various cultivation boxes 2 in the cultivation group are arranged in a stepped manner on one side of the triangular frame 1. The advantage of this arrangement is that it allows the medicinal herb seedlings planted in the cultivation boxes 2 to receive sufficient sunlight, without being completely blocked by the cultivation boxes 2 above.

[0028] Regarding the structure of the drip tray:

[0029] The water collection tray structure includes a water collection tray 3 and a diagonal support rod 10. The diagonal support rod 10 is fixedly connected to the outside of the triangular frame 1. The water collection tray 3 is placed below the cultivation box 2. The end of the diagonal support rod 10 away from the triangular frame 1 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the water collection tray 3. A water collection groove 13 is provided at the upper end of the water collection tray 3. When the cultivation box 2 is full of water, it will flow into the water collection tray 3 through the ventilation hole 14 at the bottom of the cultivation box 2. The water collection tray 3 will collect the excess water. The diagonal support rod 10, fixed to the outside of the triangular frame 1, supports the water collection tray 3 from the bottom.

[0030] It is worth explaining in detail that a support frame 4 for supporting the cultivation box 2 is provided between the water tray 3 and the cultivation box 2. The support frame 4 includes multiple limiting rods 16 located on the outside of the water tray 3. Each limiting rod 16 surrounds the cultivation box 2, and the outer wall of the cultivation box 2 is slidably connected to the limiting rod 16. The lower end of the limiting rod 16 is fixedly connected to the water tray 3, and a baffle 15 is sleeved on the upper end of the limiting rod 16. The baffle 15 is fixedly connected to the limiting rod 16 and is placed between the water tray 3 and the cultivation box 2. When the cultivation box 2 is placed on the upper end of the water tray 3, the limiting rods 16 fixed on the outside of the water tray 3 will limit the cultivation box 2 from the outside, so that the cultivation box 2 can slide up and down along the limiting rods 16 when placed, and its left, right, front and back positions will not be offset.

[0031] Once the cultivation box 2 has completely fallen, the baffle 15 will support the cultivation box 2 from the bottom, ensuring that there is enough airflow gap between the cultivation box 2 and the water tray 3.

[0032] Regarding the airflow guide:

[0033] The guide component includes a guide pipe 9, which is fixedly connected to the lower end of the water receiving tray 3. The guide pipe 9 is connected to the drain hole 11 at the bottom of the water receiving trough 13. The end of the guide pipe 9 away from the water receiving tray 3 extends to the top of the water storage tray 5, and a water storage trough 12 is provided at the upper end of the water storage tray 5. The water that falls into the water receiving trough 13 will flow into the water storage trough 12 at the upper end of the water storage tray 5 through the guide pipe 9. The water storage trough 12 will collect the water accumulated in each cultivation box 2, preventing the water from flowing erratically through the vent hole 14 and affecting the ground environment of the cultivation area.

[0034] To facilitate replacement of the water storage tray 5, its left and right ends extend into the two triangular frames 1 respectively. Two slots 17 are provided on the lower surface of the water storage tray 5, which engage with the bottom of the two triangular frames 1 respectively. This engagement effectively prevents the water storage tray 5 from shifting. To remove the water storage tray 5 from the bottom of the triangular frames 1, simply lift the water storage tray 5 upwards and pry the triangular frames 1 out of the slots 17.

[0035] The connections between the diagonal brace 10 and the water tray 3, the water tray 3 and the triangular frame 1, and the reinforcing plate 6 and the triangular frame 1 are all fixed by welding. Of course, in addition to welding, other connection methods can also be used for fixing, such as bolt connection, which will not be discussed in detail here.

[0036] Because the water tray 3 protrudes outwards, the entire device is prone to tipping over during the support of the cultivation box 2. To improve the stability of the device, in the preferred embodiment, at least two support legs 7 are provided at the bottom of the water tray 3, which is fixedly connected to the water tray 3. Rubber pads 8 are provided at the lower ends of the support legs 7. The rubber pads 8 provide auxiliary support to the triangular frame 1 from the left and right sides.

[0037] How this application works:

[0038] When the cultivation box 2 is full of water, the water will flow into the water collection tray structure through the air vent 14 at the bottom of the cultivation box 2. Each water collection tray structure will guide the water to the water collection tray through the guide component. There is a gap between the water collection tray structure and the air vent 14, which will not affect the air circulation at the bottom of the soil, effectively avoid the occurrence of root rot, and also prevent sewage from flowing around, ensuring the ground environment of the cultivation area.
