[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cutting flower of Chinese month, especially to a cutting flower of Chinese month postharvest pretreatment device. BACKGROUND
[0002] As an important ornamental flower, the postharvest treatment of cutting flower of Chinese month is directly related to the commodity value and vase life. The harvested Chinese month flower still has physiological activities such as respiration and transpiration, and if not treated in time, it is easy to be affected by microbial infection, water loss and mechanical damage, resulting in problems such as petal wilting and stem rot. Therefore, postharvest pretreatment is a key link to prolong the preservation period of cut flowers. At present, the industry generally uses disinfectant solution immersion method to pretreat cutting flower of Chinese month, which can inhibit microbial reproduction through the synergistic effect of bactericides and preservatives, and can supplement flower stem water and maintain cell vitality.
[0003] However, the pretreatment device in the prior art has the following problems: first, the concentration of disinfectant solution decreases during the immersion process due to adsorption and evaporation of the cutting flower, and frequent manual replenishment is required, which is low in efficiency and difficult to maintain stable liquid level; second, the traditional disinfection barrel is of fixed structure and cannot adjust the inclination angle, resulting in insufficient contact of the cutting flower stem with the disinfectant solution and affecting the uniformity of treatment; third, the operator needs to hold the bouquet for a long time for immersion, which is labor-intensive and easy to cause fatigue. UTILITY MODEL CONTENT
[0004] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the utility model provides a cutting flower of Chinese month postharvest pretreatment device, which overcomes the deficiencies of the prior art and effectively solves the problems of disinfectant solution replenishment, disinfection barrel angle adjustment and operator fatigue.
[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme:

[0010] Preferably, the auxiliary support assembly includes a support frame fixedly connected to the top outer wall of the base by screws, adjacently distributed horizontal columns fixedly connected to the outer wall of the support frame, and a rotating tube rotatably connected to the outer wall of the horizontal columns.
[0011] Preferably, a stirring motor with a stirring rod is fixedly connected to the top outer wall of the storage tank by screws.
[0012] Preferably, a level gauge is installed on the top outer wall of the storage tank on the side of the stirring motor, and a replenishment pipe is fixedly connected to the top of one side outer wall of the storage tank, with a water pump installed on the outer wall of the replenishment pipe.
