Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of fruit tree planting technology, and in particular to a seedling raising device. Background Technology

[0002] The process of cultivating fruit tree seedlings requires the use of seedling cultivation devices. After the fruit tree seedlings are cultivated by the seedling cultivation devices, they need to be transplanted. When the seedlings are transplanted after being cultivated by the existing seedling cultivation devices, the root system at the edge of the seedlings is easily scratched and damaged, which reduces the cultivation effect of the seedling cultivation devices on the fruit tree seedlings.

[0003] A search of related technologies revealed a Chinese patent document (authorization announcement number CN222193284U) entitled "A Seedling Cultivation Device for Fruit Tree Planting," which includes a placement frame, a cultivation frame mounted on the upper end of the placement frame, a support ring fitted at the lower end of the cultivation frame, and a fixing rod installed at one end of the support ring. This invention, through the setting of the cultivation frame and the lifting frame, allows for the lifting of the cultivation frame via a handle installed in the device, facilitating faster removal of the cultivated fruit tree seedlings. However, this device does not consider the susceptibility of the seedling roots to scratches and damage during transplantation, thus reducing the cultivation effect of the seedling cultivation device on the fruit tree seedlings. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a seedling raising device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a seedling raising device, comprising:

[0006] The seedling container has a hollow top and a bottom plate connected to the bottom surface.

[0007] The seedling assembly is located inside the seedling tank. The seedling assembly includes a fixing ring and a positioning ring. Two mutually closed seedling shells are arranged on the adjacent sides of the fixing ring and the positioning ring. The bottom surface of the seedling shell is connected to a semi-circular positioning plate. The adjacent sides of the two positioning plates abut against each other. The centrifugal side of the two positioning plates is slidably connected to the positioning ring. The outer ring surface of the positioning ring is threaded with two fixing bolts for tightly abutting the positioning plates. The inner ring surface of the fixing ring is slidably connected with two mutually closed semi-circular arc-shaped fixing plates. The top surface of the seedling shell is embedded and fixedly connected to the fixing plates. The outer ring surface of the fixing ring is threaded with two limiting bolts for tightly abutting the fixing plates.

[0008] Preferably, the inner wall of the seedling tank is slidably connected to the two seedling shells, and the bottom surfaces of the two positioning plates abut against the inner bottom surface of the seedling tank.

[0009] Preferably, a measuring component is provided on the upper part of the base plate, the measuring component including a measuring plate and a measuring rod with a scale on its surface.

[0010] Preferably, the bottom surface of the measuring plate is connected and fixed to the measuring rod, and a connecting plate is provided at the bottom of the measuring plate.

[0011] Preferably, the end face of the connecting plate is connected to the seedling tank, and a fixed bearing is embedded in the top surface of the connecting plate.

[0012] Preferably, the inner ring of the fixed bearing is interference-fitted with a hollow connecting rod, and the inner cavity of the connecting rod is square-shaped.

[0013] Preferably, a square-shaped limiting block is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the connecting rod, and the top surface of the limiting block is fixedly connected to the measuring rod.

[0014] Preferably, the top surface of the connecting rod is slidably embedded in the measuring rod, and the top surface of the connecting rod is flush with the top surface of the seedling shell.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0016] This seedling raising device is equipped with seedling raising components for cultivating fruit tree seedlings. When the two seedling shells are closed together, they form a tank-like structure. Cultivation soil is introduced into the tank, allowing the fruit tree seedlings to be planted in the soil. The top and bottom surfaces of the seedling shells are connected to a fixing plate and a positioning plate, respectively. The fixing ring limits the two closed fixing plates, and the positioning ring limits the two closed positioning plates, providing conditions for the two seedling shells to close together. When the fruit tree seedlings are cultivated and need to be transplanted, the two seedling shells can be easily disassembled to prevent the roots of the fruit tree seedlings from rubbing against the seedling shells at the edges, providing protection for the right side of the fruit tree and enhancing the cultivation effect of the device on the fruit tree seedlings.

[0017] This seedling raising device allows the seedling raising components to be placed inside the seedling raising tank. The centrifugal side of both seedling shells is slidably connected to the inner side wall of the seedling raising tank, so that the seedling raising tank limits the two seedling shells and makes the two seedling shells fit tightly together, thereby improving the structural stability of the device's components.

[0018] This seedling raising device is used to measure the growth height of fruit tree seedlings during cultivation to determine whether they are suitable for transplanting. A limiting block moves vertically along the inner cavity of the connecting rod, which in turn moves the measuring rod vertically. During this transmission, the measuring plate moves, bringing its bottom surface into contact with the fruit tree seedling. The height of the seedling is measured by observing the scale readings on the measuring rod surface aligned with the top surface of the connecting rod. This eliminates the need to carry measuring tools, improving the ease of use of the device. The connecting plate provides a connection, and the fixed bearing allows for relative rotation between the connecting rod and the connecting plate. The measuring plate can be adjusted to a designated position for use. Attached Figure Description

[0029] In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a more thorough understanding of the present invention. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention can be practiced without one or more of these details. In other instances, certain technical features well-known in the art have not been described in order to avoid confusion with the present invention.

[0030] Unless otherwise defined, the directions mentioned herein, such as up, down, left, right, front, back, inside, and outside, are based on the directions shown in the figures of this utility model, and are explained here together.

[0031] The connection method can be any existing method, such as bonding, welding, or bolting, depending on the actual needs.

[0032] Please see Figures 1 to 5 A seedling raising device, in this embodiment including:

[0033] The seedling tank 1 has a hollow top, which allows the top of the seedling tank 1 to have an opening. The bottom surface of the seedling tank 1 is connected to the bottom plate 2, which provides support for the seedling tank 1. At the same time, when the bottom plate 2 is placed directly on the ground, it can increase the contact area with the ground compared to the seedling tank 1 being placed directly on the ground, thereby increasing the support stability of the device.

[0034] The seedling component 3 is located inside the seedling tank 1. The seedling component 3 includes a fixing ring 303 and a positioning ring 305. Two mutually closed seedling shells 301 are arranged adjacent to the fixing ring 303 and the positioning ring 305. These two mutually closed seedling shells 301 can be combined to form a tank-like structure. This tank-like structure is used to store cultivation soil for cultivating fruit tree seedlings. The top surface of the cultivation soil poured into the structure formed by the two seedling shells 301 is flush with the top surface of the seedling shells 301. A semi-circular positioning plate 304 is connected to the bottom surface of the seedling shells 301. When the two positioning plates 304 are closed, they can be combined to form a disc-like structure. The adjacent sides of the two positioning plates 304 abut against each other. The centrifugal side of each positioning plate 304 is slidably connected to the positioning ring 305. Two fixing bolts are threaded onto the outer ring surface of the positioning ring 305 to tightly abut against the positioning plate 304. Two fixing bolts are respectively set on opposite sides of the two positioning plates 304. The two positioning plates 304 are mutually abutted by the tight abutment of the fixing bolts. Two mutually closed semi-circular arc-shaped fixing plates 302 are slidably connected to the inner ring surface of the fixing ring 303. The top surface of the seedling shell 301 is embedded and fixedly connected to the fixing plate 302. Two limiting bolts for tightly abutting the fixing plate 302 are threadedly connected to the outer ring surface of the fixing ring 303. The two limiting bolts are respectively set on opposite sides of the two fixing plates 302. Under the fixation of the two limiting bolts, the two fixing plates 302 are tightly abutted. The mutually closed side of the seedling shell 301 is flush with the mutually closed side of the fixing plate 302 and the mutually closed side of the positioning plate 304, so that the two seedling shells 301, the two fixing plates 302, and the two positioning plates 304 are divided into left and right parts. The inner wall of the seedling tank 1 is slidably connected to the two seedling shells 301.

[0035] To improve the seedling cultivation effect, fruit tree seedlings need to be transplanted after cultivation. Directly digging up the seedlings can easily damage their root system. When the seedlings are taken out along with the cultivation soil, the roots at the edges of the seedlings may be scratched and damaged, which will reduce the cultivation effect of the seedling device. After the seedling component 3 is separated from the seedling tank 1, the limiting bolts can be released from the fixing plate 302, the fixing ring 303 can be removed, the fixing bolts can be released from the positioning plate 304, and the positioning ring 305 can be removed. During the transmission process, the two seedling shells 301 are separated, which makes it easier to take out the seedlings on the outer side of the cultivation and prevents the roots of the seedlings from being scratched and damaged, thus improving the cultivation effect of the device on the seedlings. When the seedling component 3 is located in the inner cavity of the seedling tank 1, the inner cavity of the seedling tank 1 is slidably connected to the two seedling shells 301, so that the seedling tank 1 provides a clamping effect on the mutual closure of the two seedling shells 301, which strengthens the structural stability of the device components.

[0036] The bottom surfaces of both positioning plates 304 abut against the inner bottom surface of the seedling tank 1. A measuring component 4 is provided on the upper part of the bottom plate 2. The measuring component 4 includes a measuring plate 401 and a measuring rod 402 with graduations on its surface. The measuring values ​​of the measuring rod 402 are arranged from top to bottom. The bottom surface of the measuring plate 401 is connected and fixed to the measuring rod 402. The measuring plate 401 can be located on the upper part of the seedling tank 1. A connecting plate 403 is provided on the lower part of the measuring plate 401. The end face of the connecting plate 403 is connected to the seedling tank 1. The tank 1 is connected, and a fixed bearing 404 is embedded and fixedly connected to the top surface of the connecting plate 403. The inner ring of the fixed bearing 404 is interference-fitted with a hollow connecting rod 405. The inner cavity of the connecting rod 405 is square-shaped. A square-shaped limiting block 406 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the connecting rod 405. The top surface of the limiting block 406 is fixedly connected to the measuring rod 402. The top surface of the connecting rod 405 is slidably connected to the measuring rod 402. The top surface of the connecting rod 405 is flush with the top surface of the seedling shell 301.

[0037] To measure the height of fruit tree seedlings, it is necessary to measure their growth height during the seedling cultivation process. Once the seedlings reach a specified height, they can be transplanted. However, measuring the height of the seedlings often requires carrying measuring tools, which is inconvenient. A new device addresses this by allowing the limiting block 406 to move vertically along the inner cavity of the connecting rod 405. During transmission, the vertical position of the measuring plate 401 is adjusted. With the connection and fixation of the fixed bearing 404, the connecting rod 405 can rotate relative to the connecting plate 403, allowing the measuring plate 401 to rotate to a specified angle for use. This allows the bottom surface of the measuring plate 401 to contact the highest branch and leaves of the seedling, enabling observation of the scale values ​​on the surface of the measuring rod 402. This allows for the measurement of the seedling's growth height without the need for measuring tools, improving the ease of use of the device.

[0038] The principle is as follows: When it is necessary to measure the growth height of fruit tree seedlings, under the connection of fixed bearing 404, the connecting rod 405 and the connecting plate 403 can rotate relative to each other, so that the measuring plate 401 can be moved to a specified angle for use, and the limiting block 406 can move along the inner cavity of the connecting rod 405. During the transmission process, the bottom surface of the measuring plate 401 contacts the highest branch and leaves of the fruit tree seedling, and the scale value of the measuring rod 402 can be observed.

[0039] When it is necessary to transplant fruit tree seedlings, the seedling component 3 is detached from the seedling tank 1, the limiting bolts are released from the clamping of the fixing plate 302, and the fixing bolts are released from the clamping of the positioning plate 304, so that the fixing ring 303 is detached from the two fixing plates 302 and the positioning ring 305 is detached from the two positioning plates 304, so that the two seedling shells 301 are separated from each other, and the fruit tree seedlings inside can be taken out and transplanted.
