[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] This application provides an energy-saving, full-cycle intelligent management smart planting cabinet, mainly to address the problem that: without photovoltaic modules, outdoor planting cabinets cannot utilize solar energy for self-sufficiency, and therefore require continuous electrical energy consumption to maintain operation, leading to increased energy costs. The following technical solution is provided and will be described in detail:

[0024] Example 1:

[0025] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, a support frame 1 is included, a support frame 2 is fixedly installed on the top of the support frame 1, a top plate 3 is fixedly installed on the top of the support frame 2, a photovoltaic mechanism 4 for utilizing solar energy is provided on the top surface of the top plate 3, a planting cabinet 5 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the support frame 1, a watering mechanism 6 for watering is provided above the planting cabinet 5, a support plate 7 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the support frame 1, the photovoltaic mechanism 4 includes a solar panel 401 fixedly installed on the top surface of the top plate 3 and a battery 402 disposed inside the support frame 1, the solar panel 401 and the battery 402 are electrically connected, an mounting frame 9 is fixedly installed in the middle of the support frame 1, and the battery 402 is fixedly installed on the mounting frame 9.

[0026] Specifically, through the photovoltaic mechanism 4 on the top panel 3, the planting cabinet 5 can efficiently capture and utilize solar energy to provide the necessary power for its operation. This not only reduces dependence on the traditional power grid but also significantly reduces energy consumption and operating costs.

[0027] The working principle here is as follows: Solar panels 401 are fixedly installed on the top surface of the top plate 3, responsible for capturing sunlight and converting it into electrical energy. This process is achieved through the photovoltaic effect, that is, when sunlight shines on solar panels 401, photons interact with silicon atoms in the panels, releasing electrons, thereby generating current. The converted electrical energy is transmitted through wires to a storage battery 402 installed inside the support frame 1 (specifically on the mounting frame 9). The storage battery 402 is responsible for storing this electrical energy so as to provide power support for the planting cabinet 5 in the absence of sunlight or insufficient light. Inside the storage battery 402, electrical energy is converted into chemical energy through a chemical reaction and stored. When needed, the chemical energy is converted back into electrical energy for output. Plants are planted inside the planting cabinet 5, and a watering mechanism 6 is installed above it. The watering mechanism 6 is used for root watering. Irrigation is carried out according to the growth needs of the plants. When irrigation is needed, the battery 402 provides power to the watering mechanism 6. In the whole system, components such as the solar panel 401, the battery 402, the watering mechanism 6, and the possible intelligent control system work together to provide a suitable growth environment for the plants. The solar panel 401 continuously collects solar energy and converts it into electrical energy. The battery 402 stores electrical energy and releases it when needed. The watering mechanism 6 irrigates according to the needs of the plants, while the intelligent control system is responsible for monitoring and managing the entire system. This design makes full use of solar energy, a renewable energy source, to achieve energy self-sufficiency and reduce dependence on the traditional power grid and energy consumption. At the same time, precise irrigation and efficient use of resources also help to save water resources and reduce waste, which is in line with the concept of environmental protection and sustainable development.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, a drain valve 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom side of the planting cabinet 5. The working principle here is as follows: inside the planting cabinet 5, plants may produce excess water during their growth process, such as residual water after irrigation or water released by plant transpiration. This water will accumulate at the bottom of the planting cabinet 5. As a key component for controlling fluid discharge, the drain valve 8 is activated when drainage is needed, thereby allowing the accumulated water to flow out through the drain valve 8.

[0029] Example 2:

[0030] The following section provides a further description of the scheme in Example 1, focusing on its specific working method. See the description below for details:

[0031] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, the watering mechanism 6 includes a water tank 601 fixed to the side of the support frame 1. A water pump 602 is fixedly connected to the side of the water tank 601. The water pump 602 is fixed to the inner side of the support frame 1. A T-shaped pipe 603 is fixedly connected to the outlet of the water pump 602. Multiple watering pipes 604 are fixedly connected to the end of the T-shaped pipe 603 away from the water pump 602. Multiple watering holes 605 are provided at the bottom of the watering pipes 604. A connecting frame 10 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the support frame 1. The watering pipes 604 are fixed to the top of the connecting frame 10. The working principle here is as follows: the water tank 601 fixed to the side of the support frame 1 is used to store the water required for irrigation. The capacity of the water tank 601 should be large enough to meet the irrigation needs of the plants for a period of time. When irrigation is needed, the water pump 602 starts to work. The input end of the water pump 602 is connected to the water tank. Water is drawn into the water tank 601 by a suction action. The water pump 602 usually has sufficient suction to ensure that the water can be drawn out smoothly. The outlet of the water pump 602 is fixedly connected to a T-shaped pipe 603. The design of the T-shaped pipe 603 allows the water flow to be evenly distributed into multiple watering pipes 604 at the bifurcation of the T-shaped pipe 603 after flowing out of the water pump 602. Multiple watering pipes 604 are fixedly connected to the end of the T-shaped pipe 603 away from the water pump 602. These watering pipes 604 are fixedly installed along the top of the connecting frame 10 on the inner side of the support frame 1 to ensure that the irrigation water can evenly cover the plants in the support frame 1. Multiple watering holes 605 are provided at the bottom of the watering pipes 604 to ensure that the irrigation water can drip onto the plant roots or soil surface at an appropriate flow rate and speed, thereby achieving uniform irrigation.

[0032] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
