Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to aquaponics technology, and more particularly to an aquaponics planting device. Background Technology
[0002] Aquaponics is an ecological circular agriculture model that combines aquaculture with hydroponics. Through ecological design, it enables the synergistic coexistence of animals, plants, and microorganisms within a greenhouse. In this system, fish excrement in the fish farm wastewater is nitrified by bacteria to produce nitrates, which become plant nutrients. After absorbing these nutrients, the plants purify the water, and the purified water is returned to the fish farm, thus forming a closed water cycle system of "fish fertilizing water → vegetables purifying water → water nourishing fish." This system has the advantages of not requiring water changes for fish farming and not requiring watering for vegetable cultivation.
[0003] Currently, a common aquaponics device for hydroponically cultivating vegetables includes a planting trough and a foam board. The foam board has a flat structure with multiple planting holes. In use, the planting trough is filled with treated fish-raising water. The foam board floats on the water surface within the trough, and seed cups are placed in the planting holes. Vegetables are planted in these cups, and their roots are submerged in the water, absorbing nutrients. However, because the foam board is attached to the water surface, the roots are directly immersed in the water, resulting in poor oxygenation and potentially causing root rot. Utility Model Content
[0004] This application provides an aquaponics planting device to solve the problem that existing aquaponics planting devices have poor root oxygenation when planting vegetables, which easily leads to some roots being hypoxic and causing root rot.
[0005] This application provides an aquaponics planting device, including a planting trough and a foam board, wherein the lower end of the foam board has a ventilation groove structure that runs through the foam board along its length.
[0006] The upper end of the foam board has multiple planting holes arranged in an array and connected to the ventilation groove structure.
[0007] After the foam board floats on the water surface in the planting trough, the length end of the foam board is parallel to the width end of the planting trough, and there is a gap I between the two width ends of the foam board and the wall of the planting trough.
[0008] Optionally, the ventilation channel structure is composed of multiple evenly distributed channels, which are distributed along the length of the foam board and penetrate the foam board.
[0009] Each of the grooves has a row of planting holes at its upper end, and each planting hole is connected to the groove below it.
[0010] Optionally, both ends of the trough are provided with vertical grooves communicating with the trough, the trough and the two vertical grooves form a U-shaped trough structure, and the vertical grooves penetrate the upper end of the foam board.
[0011] Optionally, the groove body includes multiple rectangular grooves distributed along the same straight line, and a circular groove communicating with adjacent rectangular grooves is provided between them;
[0012] One of the planting holes has a circular groove at its lower end, and the planting hole and the circular groove are concentric.
[0013] Optionally, two mesh panels distributed along the length direction are fixed to the upper inner part of the planting trough, and each mesh panel has a gap II between it and the length end of the planting trough.
[0014] The foam board floats between the two mesh panels.
[0015] Optionally, air vents distributed along the length of the planting trough are opened at the upper part of both ends along the length of the planting trough.
[0016] Optionally, two adjacent circular grooves in the width direction of the foam board are connected by a connecting groove, and the connecting groove is located at the lower end of the foam board.
[0017] The aquaponics planting device provided in this application comprises a planting trough and a foam board. The lower end of the foam board has a ventilation channel extending along its length, while the upper end has multiple planting holes arranged in an array and connected to the ventilation channel. When the foam board floats on the water surface in the planting trough, its length is parallel to the width of the planting trough, and both width ends of the foam board have a gap I with the trough wall. This allows vegetables to be planted in the planting holes via planting cups during use, and the roots of the vegetables to penetrate the planting holes and ventilation channel structure into the planting trough. The planter absorbs nutrients from the water. Because the ventilation channel structure runs through the foam board along its length, and there is a gap I between the two ends of the foam board and the wall of the planting trough, the ventilation channel structure is located at the upper end of the water surface after the foam board floats on the water surface in the planting trough. The ventilation channel structure is connected to the gap I, which in turn is connected to the outside. This allows air to circulate within the ventilation channel structure, and outside air enters the ventilation channel structure and comes into contact with the root system, providing oxygen to the root system. This improves the oxygenation effect of the root system and reduces the phenomenon of root rot caused by root hypoxia. Attached Figure Description

[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application are described clearly and completely below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are also within the scope of protection of this application.
[0025] like Figures 1-4 As shown:
[0026] An embodiment of this application provides an aquaponics planting device, which includes a planting trough 1 and a foam board 2. The lower end of the foam board 2 has a ventilation groove structure 3 that runs through the foam board 2 along its length.
[0027] Furthermore, both the planting trough 1 and the foam board 2 are rectangular structures.
[0028] The upper end of the foam board 2 has multiple planting holes 4 arranged in an array and connected to the ventilation groove structure 3. The planting holes 4 are used to place the planting cup.
[0029] After the foam board 2 floats on the water surface 10 in the planting trough 1, the length end of the foam board 2 is parallel to the width end of the planting trough 1, and there is a gap Ⅰ5 between the two width ends of the foam board 2 and the trough wall of the planting trough 1.
[0030] In this embodiment, the planting trough 1 is distributed horizontally along its length, and the foam board 2 is distributed front-to-back along its length. There is a gap I5 between the front end of the foam board 2 and the front end of the planting trough 1, and between the rear end of the foam board 2 and the rear end of the planting trough 1.
[0031] In use, the planting trough 1 is filled with treated fish-raising water, and the foam board 2 is placed on the water surface 10, meaning the foam board 2 floats on the water surface 10. Each planting hole 4 is fitted with a planting cup, and vegetables are planted in the planting cup. The roots of the vegetables grow through the planting hole 4 and the ventilation channel structure 3 into the fish-raising water in the planting trough 1 to absorb nutrients from the water. Since the ventilation channel structure 3 runs through the foam board 2 from front to back, and there are gaps I5 between the front end of the foam board 2 and the front end of the planting trough 1, and between the rear end of the foam board 2 and the rear end of the planting trough 1, after the foam board 2 floats on the water surface 10 in the planting trough 1, the lower end of the foam board 2 is in contact with the water surface 10. The ventilation channel structure 3 is located at the upper end of the water surface 10 and is connected to the gaps I5, which in turn are connected to the outside. This allows air to circulate in the ventilation channel structure 3, enabling outside air to enter the ventilation channel structure 3 and come into contact with the roots, providing oxygen to the roots.
[0032] The aquaponics planting device provided in this application consists of a planting trough 1 and a foam board 2. The lower end of the foam board 2 has a ventilation channel structure 3 that runs through the length of the foam board 2. The upper end of the foam board 2 has multiple planting holes 4 arranged in an array and connected to the ventilation channel structure 3. After the foam board 2 floats on the water surface 10 in the planting trough 1, the length end of the foam board 2 is parallel to the width end of the planting trough 1. Both width ends of the foam board 2 have gaps Ⅰ5 between them and the walls of the planting trough 1. This allows outside air to enter the ventilation channel structure 3 and come into contact with the vegetable roots during the vegetable planting process, directly providing oxygen to the vegetable roots, increasing the oxygen content at the vegetable roots, thereby improving the oxygenation effect of the vegetable roots and reducing the phenomenon of root rot caused by root hypoxia.
[0033] In some embodiments of this application, the ventilation slot structure 3 is composed of a plurality of uniformly distributed slots 31, which are distributed along the length of the foam board 2 and penetrate the foam board 2.
[0034] In this embodiment, two adjacent troughs 31 are arranged side to side. The front end of the trough 31 is flush with the front end of the foam board 2, and the rear end of the trough 31 is flush with the rear end of the foam board 2.
[0035] Each groove 31 has a row of planting holes 4 at its upper end, and each planting hole 4 is connected to the groove 31 located below it.
[0036] When in use, outside air enters the tank 31 through gap I5, and air circulates in the tank 31. Since the planting hole 4 is located at the upper end of the tank 31 and is connected to the tank 31, the roots of the vegetables grow through the tank 31 and enter the fish water in the planting trough 1. As a result, the roots in the tank 31 can absorb oxygen in the tank 31, thereby reducing the phenomenon of root rot caused by root hypoxia.
[0037] In some embodiments of this application, both ends of the trough 31 are provided with vertical grooves 32 communicating with the trough 31. The trough 31 and the two vertical grooves 32 form a U-shaped groove structure, and the vertical grooves 32 penetrate the upper end of the foam board 2. Specifically, the upper end of the vertical groove 32 is flush with the upper end of the foam board 2.
[0038] In this embodiment, by setting the vertical groove 32, the air in the gap I5 can enter the tank 31 through the vertical groove 32, thereby improving the air circulation effect of the tank 31.
[0039] In some embodiments of this application, the groove 31 includes a plurality of rectangular grooves 311 distributed along the same straight line, and a circular groove 312 communicating with adjacent rectangular grooves 311 is provided between them.
[0040] One of the planting holes 4 has a circular groove 312 at its lower end, and the planting hole 4 and the circular groove 312 are concentric.
[0041] When in use, the vegetable roots pass through the middle of the circular groove 312 and enter the fish tank water of the planting trough 1. An annular gap is formed between the vegetable roots and the circular groove 312, allowing air to enter from the rectangular groove 311 into the annular gap and distribute around the vegetable roots. This enables the vegetable roots to absorb oxygen from their surroundings, further improving the oxygenation effect of the vegetable roots.
[0042] In some embodiments of this application, two mesh panels 6 distributed along the length direction are fixed to the upper inner part of the planting trough 1, and a gap II 7 is provided between each mesh panel 6 and the length end of the planting trough 1. Specifically, the left end of the mesh panel 6 is fixedly connected to the left end of the planting trough 1, and the right end of the mesh panel 6 is fixedly connected to the right end of the planting trough 1. A gap II 7 is provided between one mesh panel 6 and the front end of the planting trough 1, and between the other mesh panel 6 and the rear end of the planting trough 1.
[0043] Among them, foam board 2 floats between two mesh boards 6.
[0044] In this embodiment, by setting two mesh plates 6 to limit the floating foam board 2, a gap I5 is formed between the foam board 2 and the planting trough 1, and air can be normally circulated between the gap I5 and the trough 31.
[0045] In some embodiments of this application, air vents 8 are provided at the upper part of both length ends of the planting trough 1, distributed along the length direction of the planting trough 1.
[0046] In this embodiment, considering that when leafy vegetables are planted, they will cover the upper part of the entire planting trough 1 after they grow to a large size, resulting in poor ventilation at the upper part of the gap I5, an air vent 8 is opened at the length end of the planting trough 1, so that outside air can enter the gap I5 from the side end of the planting trough 1, thereby ensuring the air circulation effect of the gap I5.
[0047] In some embodiments of this application, two adjacent circular grooves 312 in the width direction of the foam board 2 are connected by a connecting groove 9, and the connecting groove 9 is located at the lower end of the foam board 2, so that air can circulate between the two adjacent grooves 31, thereby improving the air circulation effect of the grooves 31.
[0048] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and are not intended to limit them. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application.
