Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of seedling raising devices, and in particular relates to a seedling raising device for growing vegetables. Background Technology

[0002] As people's living standards improve, the demand for vegetables and the requirements for their quality continue to rise, leading to the rapid development of the vegetable planting industry. As the initial stage of vegetable planting, the quality of seedling cultivation directly determines the growth cycle, yield, and disease resistance of vegetables. Traditional vegetable seedling cultivation often uses open-air seedbeds or simple greenhouses, relying on natural light and climate conditions. This method has gradually revealed many drawbacks in modern agricultural production, hence the use of seedling cultivation devices.

[0003] However, in the use of existing seedling raising devices, some areas of the seedlings are exposed to excessive light while others are exposed to insufficient light, resulting in uneven seedling growth. The stems grow faster on the side facing the light and slower on the side away from the light, causing the seedlings to have an irregular shape, affecting their photosynthetic efficiency, and thus affecting their overall growth and development. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a seedling raising device for planting vegetables. By setting a rotating mechanism, it solves the problem that in the use of existing seedling raising devices, some areas of the seedlings are exposed to excessive light while other areas are exposed to insufficient light, resulting in uneven seedling growth. The stems grow faster on the side facing the light and slower on the side away from the light, causing the seedlings to be irregular in shape, affecting their photosynthetic efficiency, and thus affecting their overall growth and development.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] This utility model is a seedling raising device for planting vegetables, including a rectangular base plate, on which a rotating mechanism and a wastewater collection mechanism are provided;

[0007] The top of the rectangular base plate is fixedly connected to two support frames, and the top of the two support frames is fixedly connected to a U-shaped frame. The rotating mechanism includes two rotating shafts rotatably connected to the inner wall of the U-shaped frame. The left side of the upper rotating shaft extends to the outside of the U-shaped frame. The wastewater collection mechanism includes a guide block fixedly connected to the top of the rectangular base plate, and a collection box is slidably connected to the inner wall of the guide block.

[0008] Furthermore, a motor is fixedly connected to the left side of the U-shaped frame, and the output shaft of the motor is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft located above via a coupling. Two sprockets are fixedly connected to the outer walls of both rotating shafts.

[0009] Furthermore, two chains mesh on several of the sprockets, and several connecting rods are fixedly connected between the two chains.

[0010] Furthermore, two connecting frames are rotatably connected to the outer walls of each of the connecting rods, and several planting boxes are fixedly connected to the bottom of each of the connecting frames.

[0011] Furthermore, each of the connecting frames has a rotating groove on its inner wall, and each of the connecting rods has two retaining rings fixedly connected to its outer wall. The outer walls of the retaining rings are rotatably connected to the rotating grooves.

[0012] Furthermore, a handle is fixedly connected to the front side of the collection box, and a filter screen is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the collection box.

[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. By setting up a rotating mechanism, when it is necessary to cultivate vegetable seedlings, the seedlings to be cultivated can be planted in the planting box. Then, the motor is started, and the motor will drive several sprockets to rotate through the rotating shaft, thereby driving two chains to rotate synchronously. At this time, several planting boxes will also rotate. Due to the setting of the rotating groove and the retaining ring, the connecting frame will always be vertically downward under the action of the weight of the planting box and the seeds inside the planting box. This allows the seedlings to have the opportunity to receive light evenly on all sides during the growth process, avoiding uneven seedling growth caused by a fixed angle of light. This is conducive to the photosynthesis of the seedlings, promoting the uniform growth of their stems and leaves, and cultivating seedlings with a straight shape and strong physique. During the rotation, the air around the planting box can circulate fully, which is conducive to the even distribution of gases such as carbon dioxide and oxygen around the seedlings, providing a good gas environment for the seedlings' respiration, promoting the metabolism of the seedlings, and making them grow more vigorously.

[0015] 2. By setting up a wastewater collection mechanism, when irrigation is needed, water can be directly applied to the top seedlings. As the system rotates, the water is evenly sprayed onto the seedlings in each planting box. Excess water during irrigation falls into the collection box through the round holes inside the planting box. The filter screen inside the collection box filters this water, and the filtered water is finally collected in the collection box. This ensures that all seedlings receive an equal amount of water, avoiding the uneven watering problem that may occur with manual irrigation. It is conducive to the balanced growth of seedlings, realizes the recycling of water resources, improves the utilization rate of water resources, and reduces water waste.

Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model is a seedling raising device for planting vegetables, including a rectangular base plate 1, a rotating mechanism 2 and a wastewater collection mechanism 3 on the rectangular base plate 1, two support frames 101 fixedly connected to the top of the rectangular base plate 1, and a U-shaped frame 102 fixedly connected to the top of the two support frames 101.

[0027] The rotating mechanism 2 includes two rotating shafts 211 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the U-shaped frame 102. The left side of the upper rotating shaft 211 extends to the outside of the U-shaped frame 102. A motor 212 is fixedly connected to the left side of the U-shaped frame 102. The output shaft of the motor 212 is fixedly connected to the upper rotating shaft 211 via a coupling. Two sprockets 213 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of each of the two rotating shafts 211. Two chains 214 mesh on several sprockets 213. Several connecting rods 215 are fixedly connected between the two chains 214. Two connecting frames 216 are rotatably connected to the outer walls of several connecting rods 215. Several planting boxes 217 are fixedly connected to the bottom of several connecting frames 216. The inner walls of several connecting frames 216... Each of the planting boxes 215 has a rotating groove 218. Two retaining rings 219 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of each of the connecting rods 215. The outer walls of the retaining rings 219 are rotatably connected to the rotating grooves 218. By setting the rotating mechanism 2, the seedlings can receive light evenly on all sides during the growth process, avoiding uneven growth of the seedlings due to fixed light angles. This is conducive to photosynthesis, promoting the uniform growth of stems and leaves, and cultivating seedlings with upright shape and strong growth. During the rotation, the air around the planting box 217 can circulate fully, which is conducive to the even distribution of gases such as carbon dioxide and oxygen around the seedlings, providing a good gas environment for the seedlings' respiration, promoting the metabolism of the seedlings, and making them grow more vigorously.

[0028] The wastewater collection mechanism 3 includes a guide block 311 fixedly connected to the top of the rectangular base plate 1. A collection box 312 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the guide block 311. A handle 313 is fixedly connected to the front side of the collection box 312. A filter screen 314 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the collection box 312. By setting up the wastewater collection mechanism 3, it can be ensured that all seedlings can receive an equal amount of water supply, avoiding the problem of uneven watering that may occur with artificial irrigation. This is conducive to the balanced growth of seedlings, and also realizes the recycling of water resources, improves the utilization rate of water resources, and reduces the waste of water resources.

[0029] A specific application of this embodiment is as follows: In use, the seedlings to be cultivated are first planted in the planting box 217, and then the motor 212 is started. The motor 212 will drive several sprockets 213 to rotate through the rotating shaft 211, thereby driving two chains 214 to rotate synchronously. At this time, several planting boxes 217 will also rotate. Due to the setting of the rotating groove 218 and the retaining ring 219, the connecting frame 216 will always be vertically downward under the action of the gravity of the planting box 217 and the seeds in the planting box 217. When it is necessary to irrigate the seedlings, the water source can be directly sprayed onto the top seedling. As the rotation proceeds, this water will be evenly sprayed onto the seedlings in each planting box 217. The excess water during irrigation will fall into the collection box 312 through the round hole in the planting box 217. At this time, the filter screen 314 in the collection box 312 will filter this water. The filtered water is finally collected in the collection box 312.
