Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of maize breeding technology, specifically a pollen tube for maize breeding pollination. Background Technology

[0002] Compared to traditional grain crops such as rice and wheat, corn possesses strong drought resistance, cold resistance, tolerance to poor soil conditions, and excellent environmental adaptability. With the development of production, corn's role as a feed crop in my country is becoming increasingly important. In corn breeding, artificial pollination is essential to improve seed yield and quality.

[0003] A search of existing published patents (CN202121243074.X) reveals a pollen tube for corn breeding pollination. The tube comprises a cylinder and a lid. A partition is located on the lower inner side of the cylinder, and an arc-shaped baffle containing a desiccant is located on the inner wall of the cylinder. The cylinder contains pollen, and a sieve is located at the top of the cylinder. The lid is connected to the top of the cylinder and located outside the sieve. Graduation marks on the outside of the pollen tube allow for easy monitoring of the pollination amount. The cylinder is made of transparent material, allowing clear visibility of the pollen quantity and enabling accurate pollination control. The desiccant inside the cylinder keeps the pollen dry, preventing moisture that could affect pollination. A marker pen is attached to the bottom of the cylinder for easy recording after pollination, greatly simplifying the operation. One person can complete the task without assistance. This device has a simple structure, is easy to use, and achieves a high pollination success rate and good results.

[0004] However, when using the pollen tubes, the amount of pollination depends on the staff pouring it out, and there is a possibility of hand tremors, which can lead to too much or too little pollination, which is not conducive to corn breeding. In addition, the dehumidification effect of relying solely on desiccants is poor. Utility Model Content

[0005] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a pollen tube for corn breeding pollination, which solves the problems of relying on workers to pour out the pollen, which can lead to excessive or insufficient pollination due to hand tremors, thus hindering corn breeding, and the poor dehumidification effect of relying solely on desiccants.

[0007] (II) Technical Solution

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a pollen tube for corn breeding pollination, comprising: a pollen storage tube, a connecting cover fixedly connected to the bottom of the pollen storage tube, a dispensing box fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting cover, the dispensing box being circular, a pollination tube fixedly connected to the bottom of the dispensing box, a pollination adjustment component disposed inside the dispensing box, the pollination adjustment component comprising a rotating shaft rotatably connected inside the dispensing box, partition plates evenly distributed on the surface of the rotating shaft, a pollen storage cavity separated between two sets of partition plates, a pollen discharge hole opened at the bottom of the dispensing box, the pollen discharge hole communicating with the pollination tube, and a handwheel fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft.

[0009] Preferably, a handle is fixedly connected to the surface of the powder storage cylinder, and an observation port is provided on the surface of the powder storage cylinder.

[0010] Preferably, a powder filling cap is threadedly connected to the top of the powder storage cylinder, and a sealing strip is fixedly connected to the connection between the powder filling cap and the powder storage cylinder.

[0011] Preferably, a connecting rope is fixedly connected to the surface of the pollination tube, and a sealing cap is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rope. The sealing cap is snapped into the bottom of the pollination tube.

[0012] Preferably, the sealing cap is a rubber cap, and the pollination tube is a transparent tube.

[0013] Preferably, an observation plate is provided on the side of the component box away from the handwheel, and the observation plate is a transparent plate.

[0014] Preferably, the bottom of the powder storage cylinder is funnel-shaped, and the powder storage cylinder is a plastic cylinder.

[0015] Beneficial effects

[0016] This invention provides a pollen tube for corn breeding and pollination, which has at least the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0017] A pollination adjustment component is installed. Pollen is poured into the pollen storage cylinder. When pollination of corn is needed, the pollen falls through the pollination tube under the influence of gravity, pollinating the corn. A handwheel rotates the pollen storage chamber, which in turn rotates the separator plate within the dispensing box. The pollen in the storage cylinder falls into the pollen storage chamber under gravity, and the separator plate moves the pollen towards the discharge hole. When the pollen reaches the discharge hole, it falls, completing the pollination. The handwheel rotation ensures precise pollination, preventing issues like over- or under-pollination due to hand tremors. Attached Figure Description

[0023] 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.

[0024] Example 1:

The dispensing box 3 is circular, and a powder-applying tube 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the dispensing box 3. A powder-applying adjustment component 5 is provided inside the dispensing box 3. The powder-applying adjustment component 5 includes a rotating shaft 501 rotatably connected inside the dispensing box 3. Dividing plates 502 are evenly distributed on the surface of the rotating shaft 501, and a powder storage cavity 503 is separated between two sets of dividing plates 502. A powder discharge hole 505 is opened at the bottom of the dispensing box 3, and the powder discharge hole 505 is connected to the powder-applying tube 4. A handwheel 504 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft 501. The bottom of the powder storage cylinder 1 is funnel-shaped, and the powder storage cylinder 1 is a plastic cylinder.

[0026] Analysis of the above content: When pollen is poured into the pollen storage cylinder 1 and pollination of corn is required, the pollination tube 4 is aligned with the position to be pollinated, and the handwheel 504 is rotated. The handwheel 504 causes the pollen storage chamber 503 to rotate. The rotation of the pollen storage chamber 503 causes the separator 502 to rotate in the dispensing box 3. The pollen in the pollen storage cylinder 1 falls into the pollen storage chamber 503 under the action of gravity. Under the action of the separator 502, the pollen moves towards the pollen discharge hole 505. When it reaches the top of the pollen discharge hole 505, the pollen falls and falls into the desired position through the pollination tube 4 to complete the pollination.

The sealing cap 7 is snapped into the bottom of the pollination tube 4.

[0035] Analysis of the above content: When pollination is not required, cover the bottom of the pollination tube 4 with the sealing cap 7 to prevent air from entering and seal the inside of the powder storage cylinder 1.

[0036] Example 5:

[0037] Please see Figure 1-4 Based on Embodiment 1, this utility model provides a technical solution: the sealing cap 7 is a rubber cap, and the pollination tube 4 is a transparent tube.

[0038] Analysis of the above content: The rubber cap can improve the sealing effect of the pollination tube 4, and the transparent tube makes it easy to observe the pollination position.
