Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of Polygonatum cultivation technology, and in particular to a seedling box for Polygonatum cultivation. Background Technology
[0002] Seedling trays are containers used to cultivate plants. They contain nutrient-rich substrates such as potting soil and are often used for seedling cultivation in protective facilities such as plastic greenhouses and hothouses. This allows seedlings to obtain better nutrition and environmental conditions for growth and development. Seedlings are planted with the root ball of soil, resulting in less root damage during the lifting and planting process, high survival rate, short recovery period, rapid growth, and vigorous growth. They are especially suitable for crops or trees that cannot tolerate transplanting.
[0003] A search of Chinese literature with publication number CN218499693U reveals a seedling box for growing Polygonatum sibiricum, comprising a box body, a protective door, and an installation assembly. The installation assembly includes a slider, a seedling box, a partition, a handle, a limiting block, and a grip. Pushing the slider into the box body causes the seedling box to slide laterally. Then, rotating the grip aligns the limiting block with the slider. Pushing the grip again pushes the limiting block into the box body. Finally, rotating the grip aligns the limiting block perpendicularly with the slider, embedding it into a groove in the box body, thus fixing the seedling box in place. For disassembly, rotating the grip rotates the limiting block until it aligns with the slider, releasing the seedling box from its fixed position. Removing the limiting block allows the seedling box to be taken out. The seedling box can then be fixed in a horizontal groove at a different height within the box body, allowing for adjustment of the growth space for Polygonatum sibiricum seedlings to meet their different growth stages.
[0004] The device cannot adapt to the water supply requirements of different planting chambers when watering, which can easily lead to over- or under-watering of different varieties of Solomon's seal. The existing leakage collection device is not easy to disassemble and clean, which causes sewage and impurities to adhere to the surface of the structure for a long time, which nourishes bacteria and microorganisms and is not conducive to the safe planting of Solomon's seal. In order to address the above problems, a seedling box for planting Solomon's seal is provided. Utility Model Content

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] Reference Figure 1-4 An embodiment of this utility model is provided: a seedling box for planting Polygonatum sibiricum, including an outer box 1 and an inner box 2 installed inside the outer box 1. The inner box 2 and the outer box 1 are equipped with slide rails 3 around each other. A cultivation box 4 is installed inside the inner box 2. A water tank 5 with a built-in water pump is installed at the top inside the inner box 2. A nozzle mechanism 6 is installed at the bottom of the water tank 5. A drain plate 7 is installed inside the cultivation box 4. A pull plate 8 is installed at the bottom of the drain plate 7. A quick-release mechanism 9 connects the pull plate 8 and the drain plate 7.
[0025] The nozzle mechanism 6 includes a drive motor 61 fixed to one side of the bottom of the water tank 5. The output shaft of the drive motor 61 is connected to a lead screw 62. A slider 63 is screwed on the outer surface of the lead screw 62. A nozzle 64 is installed at the bottom of the slider 63. A water delivery hose 65 connects the nozzle 64 and the water tank 5. When the drive motor 61 is started, the lead screw 62 is rotated. The lead screw 62 drives the slider 63 to move laterally and reciprocally on its surface through screw transmission. The slider 63 drives the nozzle 64 to move synchronously. The water pump in the water tank 5 is started by an external controller. The water is then pumped to the water delivery hose 65 and sprayed out through the nozzle 64 to complete the watering work.
[0026] The quick-release mechanism 9 includes a corner bracket 91 fixed at the connection between the drain plate 7 and the pull plate 8. A multi-angle head 92 is fitted onto the surface of the corner bracket. The bottom of the multi-angle head 92 is set as an open structure. One end of the corner bracket 91 is inserted into the interior of the multi-angle head 92 and connected to a rod 93. A positioning plate 94 is installed inside the multi-angle head 92. A positioning element 95 is set through the rod 93 on one side of the multi-angle head 92. A tension spring 96 connects the positioning element 95 and the positioning plate 94. When disassembling, the positioning element 95 is manually held and pulled out of the rod 93. At this time, the multi-angle head 92 can be separated from the corner bracket 91. When installing the drain plate 7, the multi-angle head 92 is aligned with the rod 93 and the corner bracket 91. The positioning element 95 is driven into the interior of the rod 93 by the tension spring 96, thus completing the fixation of the multi-angle head 92.
[0027] The top and bottom edges of the outer box 1 are fitted with edge strips 10, and insect-proof nets 11 are installed between the edge strips 10. Ventilation slots 12 are provided at both ends of the outer box 1. The insect-proof nets 11 form a three-dimensional protective barrier, effectively isolating pests such as grubs and aphids from invading. At the same time, the design of the ventilation slots 12 of the top cover can ensure natural light and avoid direct impact from rain and snow, making it suitable for shady and humid environments under the forest.
[0028] The surface of the cultivation box 4 is equipped with several partition plates 13, and the bottom of the outer box 1 is equipped with a support base 14. The partition plates 13 divide the inside of the cultivation box 4 into several cultivation chambers with different diameters to accommodate different types and sizes of Solomon's seal. The support base 14 improves the stability of the cultivation box when it is moved and protects the integrity of the seedling roots.
[0029] Working principle: In use, different types of Polygonatum are placed inside different cavities of the cultivation box 4. The water pump is started by an external power source, and the water source in the water tank 5 is delivered to the nozzle 64 through the water delivery hose 65 to water the Polygonatum seedlings. The drive motor 61 is started to drive the lead screw 62 to rotate. The lead screw 62 drives the slider 63 to move laterally back and forth on its surface through the screw transmission. The slider 63 drives the nozzle 64 to move synchronously, so as to water a specific area quantitatively and then move to the upper part of the lower cultivation cavity to realize the adjustment of different water delivery volumes. The water leaks through the drain plate 7 into the draw plate 8. The draw plate 8 is fixedly connected to the drain plate 7 by the quick release mechanism 9. The draw plate 8 can be pulled out of the cultivation box 4 for wastewater disposal. By holding the positioning piece 95, the polygonal head 92 can be pulled out. The insertion rod 93 can be separated from the polygonal head 92, completing the disassembly of the draw plate 8 and the drain plate 7. The next step is to clean and disinfect. The insect-proof net 11 is fixed to the ventilation groove 12 by the side strip 10 to solve the pest problem.
[0030] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model.
