Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medicinal herb cultivation technology, and in particular to a device for the simulated wild cultivation of Dendrobium officinale. Background Technology

[0002] Dendrobium officinale is a precious medicinal orchid with extremely high medicinal and economic value, but it has relatively strict requirements for its growing environment.

[0003] Dendrobium officinale typically grows on cliffs, making harvesting difficult. Artificial cultivation has now been achieved, significantly reducing the difficulty and danger of harvesting. Current techniques generally involve cultivation using racks or greenhouses. The cultivation substrate typically consists of tree bark or a mixture of bark and gravel. Greenhouses control the internal environment to ensure optimal growth for Dendrobium officinale. However, due to the large space of greenhouses, precise environmental control is difficult in a timely manner. Racks, on the other hand, suffer from low planting density. Furthermore, while greenhouses and racks reduce harvesting difficulty, they also result in lower polysaccharide content in Dendrobium officinale compared to its wild counterpart. In other words, artificially cultivated Dendrobium officinale is of lower quality than its wild counterpart. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the above problems, this utility model provides a device for the simulated wild cultivation of Dendrobium officinale.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: a simulated wild cultivation device for Dendrobium officinale, including a support frame, an outer shell provided outside the support frame, a cultivation part and an environmental simulation mechanism fixedly connected to the support frame, Dendrobium officinale being planted in the cultivation part, and the environmental simulation mechanism including a controller and a light simulation device, a humidity simulation device and a temperature simulation device connected to the controller, the environmental simulation mechanism being used to simulate a wild environment inside the outer shell.

[0006] By adopting the above setup, a relatively independent space is created inside the outer shell, and the space is modified using an environmental simulation mechanism, so that the environment inside the outer shell can be closer to the original wild environment, thereby creating more suitable growth conditions for Dendrobium officinale, thus ensuring that Dendrobium officinale can have near-wild quality in an artificial environment.

[0007] Furthermore: the light simulation device includes a light source, a diffuser for reflecting light is provided on the top of the outer casing, and a light-shielding cloth is provided below the diffuser, the light-shielding cloth being located below the light source and outside the cultivation section.

[0008] By adopting the above setup—where the light source illuminates the diffuser and then reflects the light onto the plant instead of shining directly onto the plant surface—we can not only avoid strong light damaging Dendrobium officinale, but also simulate the effect of Dendrobium officinale growing in the wild on a shady slope with less sunlight. The shade cloth further reduces the penetration of light, simulating the effect of light passing through the leaves, allowing Dendrobium officinale to obtain light conditions closer to those in the wild, thus achieving its natural growth state.

[0009] Furthermore, the humidity simulation device includes a humidity sensor and a spray generator. The humidity sensor is used to detect the humidity inside the outer casing, and the spray generator is controlled by a controller.

[0010] By adopting the above settings, the water mist sprayed by the spray generator can further keep Dendrobium officinale in a moist and dimly lit state, making it closer to wild conditions.

[0011] Furthermore: the temperature simulation device includes a temperature sensor and a fan, the outer casing is provided with a vent, the fan is connected to the vent, the temperature sensor is used to monitor the temperature inside the outer casing and the controller controls the operation of the fan.

[0012] By adopting the above settings, the rotation of the fan increases air circulation, thereby cooling the environment and creating a good ventilation environment, which in turn creates an environment conducive to the accumulation of polysaccharides in Dendrobium officinale, thus improving its medicinal value.

[0013] Furthermore: the cultivation section includes an inclined plate, on which several planting troughs are provided, and Dendrobium officinale is planted in the planting troughs, and the light-blocking cloth is parallel to the inclined plate.

[0014] By adopting the above setup: the inclined plate simulates a steep slope environment, and Dendrobium officinale is planted in the planting trough. Multiple planting troughs can plant multiple clumps of Dendrobium officinale, thereby increasing the planting density and improving the yield.

[0015] Furthermore, the inclined plate is provided with fixing strips at both the top and bottom, and the two ends of the light-shielding cloth are respectively wrapped around the fixing strips.

[0016] By adopting the above-mentioned setup, the fixing strip is used to fix the light-blocking cloth, ensuring that the light-blocking cloth and the inclined plate can be in a parallel state, which is conducive to the light-blocking cloth playing its role.

[0017] Furthermore, the planting trough is filled with a substrate, which is divided into a support layer, a permeable layer and a nutrient layer.

[0018] By adopting the above setup: the support layer provides support for the substrate and also provides space for Dendrobium officinale to take root. Larger gravel is usually used to keep the roots relatively dry and prevent root rot. Most of the water in the nutrient layer flows out of the planting trough through the permeable layer, so that the roots of Dendrobium officinale are moist but not waterlogged, further simulating the rooting state on the cliff. The nutrient layer itself can provide sufficient nutrients for Dendrobium officinale to ensure its vigorous growth.

[0019] Furthermore, a flow guide groove is also provided on the inclined plate, the flow guide groove is connected to the bottom of the planting trough, and a water collection trough is provided at the bottom of the flow guide groove.

[0020] By adopting the above setup, the infiltrated water can be collected by the diversion channel and the water collection channel, and then water can be pumped back to water, thereby achieving the effect of water circulation. This can save water resources to a certain extent, and can also simulate the effect of rainwater carrying mud and sand from the cliff above onto Dendrobium officinale.

[0021] Furthermore, the lower part of the outer casing is also provided with a movable opening and closing window.

[0022] By adopting the above settings, the opening and closing window can facilitate the monitoring of the growth status of Dendrobium officinale inside the outer shell at any time, and can also provide emergency treatment for Dendrobium officinale when the internal temperature is too high and it is difficult to restore it to normal in a short time by relying solely on the temperature simulation device.

[0023] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0024] The outer shell creates a relatively independent growing environment for Dendrobium officinale compared to the external environment. An environmental simulation mechanism controls the light, humidity, and temperature inside the outer shell, making the growing environment closer to the wild environment. This allows Dendrobium officinale to grow in a wild-like manner, thus achieving a quality closer to that of the wild. Furthermore, since the environment inside the outer shell can be finely adjusted according to the actual growth conditions, it not only eliminates the impact of extreme climates in the wild on the quality of Dendrobium officinale, but also allows it to be planted at densities not available in the wild, thereby further ensuring quality and increasing yield.

[0030] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the Dendrobium officinale simulated wild cultivation device includes a support frame 1, which is the basic structure of the cultivation device and is used to support other components on it. An outer shell 2 is set outside the support frame 1, which can isolate the cultivation device from the external environment, thereby dividing the planting area into relatively independent small spaces, which makes it easier to modify the internal environment, thereby creating a state that is closer to the wild environment, so that Dendrobium officinale can grow in a state close to the wild, thus obtaining near-wild quality. The lower part of the outer shell 2 is also provided with an operable opening and closing window 22, which allows staff to open at any time to monitor the growth status of Dendrobium officinale inside, so as to adjust the environment inside the outer shell 2 in a timely manner according to the actual situation, ensuring that Dendrobium officinale has higher quality.

[0032] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, a cultivation section 3 and an environmental simulation mechanism 4 are fixedly connected to the support frame 1. Dendrobium officinale is planted in the cultivation section 3. The environmental simulation mechanism 4 includes a controller and a light simulation device 41, a humidity simulation device 42 and a temperature simulation device 43 connected to the controller. The environmental simulation mechanism 4 is used to simulate the wild environment inside the outer casing 2. The light simulation device 41 includes a light source 411. A diffuser 412 for reflecting light is provided on the top of the outer casing 2. The light source 411 emits light, which is reflected by the diffuser 412 and then shines on the Dendrobium officinale, avoiding the damage that direct light may cause to the Dendrobium officinale. This makes the light received by the Dendrobium officinale softer and can also simulate the environment in which the Dendrobium officinale grows on cliffs where it is difficult to receive direct light. A light-blocking cloth 413 is provided below the diffuser 412. The light-blocking cloth 413 is located below the light source 411 and is parallel to the cultivation part 3. The setting of the light-blocking cloth 413 is a simulation of sunlight shining on the cliff through the leaves in the wild. It can not only further reduce the light intensity, but also simulate the wild environment more realistically.

[0033] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the humidity simulation device 42 includes a humidity sensor and a spray generator 421. The humidity sensor is used to monitor the humidity inside the outer casing 2. The temperature simulation device 43 includes a temperature sensor and a fan 431. A vent 21 is provided on the outer casing 2, and the fan 431 is connected to the vent 21. The temperature sensor is used to monitor the temperature inside the outer casing 2. Both the temperature simulation device 43 and the humidity simulation device 42 are electrically connected to a controller, which is then electrically connected to the spray generator 421 and the fan 431. When parameters such as temperature and humidity inside the outer casing 2 change, the sensors will reflect the data. The data is fed to the controller, which then makes corresponding adjustments to the spray generator 421 and the fan 431, so that the environment inside the outer casing 2 can be maintained in a state close to that of the wild. Furthermore, the data can be fine-tuned to adjust the environment according to the actual growth condition of Dendrobium officinale, thereby transforming the environment into a more suitable state for its growth based on simulating the wild, thus improving the quality of Dendrobium officinale. In addition, the controller can be set to time, such as sending a signal to the spray generator 421 at regular intervals to simulate the climate of heavy fog in the wild in the morning, making the internal environment even closer to the wild.

[0034] In summary, the environmental simulation mechanism 4 is the main structure for modifying the internal environment of the outer shell 2. It can adjust the internal environment of the outer shell 2 based on near-wild conditions to meet the environmental elements for the growth of Dendrobium officinale, thereby promoting the growth of Dendrobium officinale in accordance with wild conditions and thus obtaining quality close to or even exceeding that of wild plants.

[0035] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the cultivation section 3 includes an inclined plate 31, which is fixed to both sides of the support frame 1. Several planting troughs 32 are provided on the inclined plate 31, and *Dendrobium officinale* is planted in the planting troughs 32. The inclined plate 31 and planting troughs 32 can simulate the clump-like growth of *Dendrobium officinale* on a cliff, further approximating the wild environment and ensuring the growth of *Dendrobium officinale*. A light-blocking cloth 413 is parallel to the inclined plate 31. Fixing strips 311 are provided on both the upper and lower parts of the inclined plate 31. The two ends of the light-blocking cloth 413 are wrapped around the fixing strips 311, which maintain the state of the light-blocking cloth 413, ensuring it remains parallel to the inclined plate 31, thus maximizing its function. The planting troughs 32 are filled with a substrate 33, which consists of a support layer 331, a permeable layer 332, and a nutrient layer 333. The density of the substrate 33 increases sequentially with the density of the nutrient layer 33. This increasing density allows the roots of Dendrobium officinale to remain relatively dry, with only a certain degree of moisture without direct contact with water, thus preventing root rot and ensuring the quality of Dendrobium officinale. The support layer 331 is typically composed of larger gravel, which not only improves its permeability but also simulates a cliff face. The nutrient layer 333 provides the necessary nutrients for the growth of Dendrobium officinale, ensuring its quality. The inclined plate 31 is also equipped with a flow channel 34, which is connected to the bottom of the planting trough 32. A water collection trough 35 is provided at the bottom of the flow channel 34. Both the flow channel 34 and the water collection trough 35 are used to collect water after each watering, allowing water to be recycled and avoiding water waste to a certain extent.
