Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of planting trough technology, and in particular to a Chinese herbal medicine planting trough that is easy to irrigate. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) herb cultivation techniques refer to a series of methods and measures for cultivating TCM herbs using agricultural science and technology, aiming to obtain high-quality medicinal materials to meet the needs of the TCM and health product markets. Buddha's Hand, as a TCM herb with special medicinal and ornamental value, is mainly propagated through two methods: cutting and grafting. Cutting requires inserting Buddha's Hand cuttings into planting troughs.

[0003] As a traditional Chinese medicine, Buddha's Hand needs water to maintain normal physiological functions, such as photosynthesis and nutrient transport. Traditional watering methods, such as watering cans and buckets, directly pour water onto the roots or the entire planting trough to ensure that the Buddha's Hand receives sufficient water support.

[0004] Currently, manual irrigation methods cannot precisely control the amount of water and the irrigation area, often leading to a large waste of water resources. Furthermore, uneven irrigation can result in improper water management of the Buddha's Hand fruit, which in turn affects its growth. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problem that the existing artificial irrigation method cannot accurately control the amount of water and the irrigation range, thus affecting the growth of Buddha's Hand. Therefore, this invention proposes a Chinese herbal medicine planting trough that is easy to irrigate.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A medicinal herb planting trough that is easy to irrigate includes a fixed shell and a planting box that can be detachably installed inside the fixed shell. It also includes: a nozzle installed on the fixed shell, wherein the fixed shell is provided with a liquid supply part, which is used to drive the nozzle to move laterally along the plane of the fixed shell and spray water; and a linkage provided on the fixed shell, wherein when the nozzle moves laterally, the linkage drives the nozzle to swing up and down.

[0008] To enable the sprinkler head to spray water while moving, preferably, the liquid supply unit includes a water storage box mounted on a fixed shell, the sprinkler head is connected to the water storage box via a water supply component, and the fixed shell is provided with a drive component for driving the water storage box to move laterally.

[0009] To drive the nozzle to move laterally, the driving component further includes: a motor fixedly mounted on the fixed housing, the output end of the motor being fixedly connected to a lead screw, the end of the lead screw away from the motor being rotatably connected inside the fixed housing, a threaded sleeve being threadedly connected to the lead screw, and the threaded sleeve being fixedly connected to the water storage box; and a slide rod fixedly mounted inside the fixed housing, a slide sleeve being slidably connected to the slide rod, and the slide sleeve being fixedly connected to the threaded sleeve.

[0010] To achieve water spraying from the nozzle and water replenishment to the water storage box, the water supply component further includes: a flexible hose fixedly connected to the water storage box, with one end of the hose away from the water storage box fixedly connected to the nozzle; a water supply pipe fixedly connected to the water storage box, the water supply pipe being located above the motor; and an adjusting screw threadedly connected to the water storage box, one end of the adjusting screw penetrating into the water storage box and rotatably connected to a piston plate, the end of the adjusting screw away from the water storage box being fixedly connected to a gear, and a gear plate meshing with the gear.

[0011] To adjust the nozzle angle and increase the irrigation range, preferably, the linkage includes: a positioning plate fixedly installed on the fixed shell, the positioning plate being fixedly connected to the toothed plate, a limit rod fixedly connected to the positioning plate, a limit frame and an inclined bracket slidably connected to the limit rod, the inclined bracket being located inside the limit frame, a torsion spring fixedly connected to the inclined bracket and the limit frame being provided inside the limit frame, and the end of the inclined bracket away from the limit rod being fixedly connected to the nozzle; wherein, a guide plate is fixedly connected to the positioning plate, and the inclined surface of the inclined bracket contacts the inclined surface of the guide plate.

[0027] Example:

[0028] Reference Figures 1-6 A medicinal herb planting trough for easy irrigation includes a fixed shell 1, a planting box 2 installed inside the fixed shell 1, and a nozzle 6 mounted on the fixed shell 1. The fixed shell 1 is provided with a liquid supply unit for driving the nozzle 6 to move laterally along the plane of the fixed shell 1 and spray water. A linkage component is provided on the fixed shell 1, wherein when the nozzle 6 moves laterally, the linkage component drives the nozzle 6 to swing up and down, thereby increasing the irrigation range by swinging the nozzle 6. A water-blocking shell 8 is fixedly connected inside the planting box 2, and a filter screen 9 is fixedly connected inside the water-blocking shell 8.

[0029] Specifically, by setting up a liquid supply unit, the position of the nozzle 6 can be adjusted while the water is pressurized to flow towards the nozzle 6, thereby precisely controlling the amount of water used for irrigation. Furthermore, by using a linkage, the angle of the nozzle 6 can be adjusted, thereby increasing the irrigation range of the nozzle 6. In addition, by using the water-blocking shell 8 and the filter screen 9 together, excess water inside the planting box 2 can be drained.

[0030] The liquid supply unit includes a water storage box 5, which is mounted on a fixed housing 1. The nozzle 6 is connected to the water storage box 5 via a water supply component. The fixed housing 1 is equipped with a drive component for driving the water storage box 5 to move laterally.

[0031] Specifically, by utilizing the water supply component, pressure can be applied to the inside of the water storage box 5 as it moves, causing the water inside to flow through the nozzle 6 and spray onto the planting box 2.

[0032] The driving components include a motor 3, which is fixedly mounted on a fixed housing 1. A lead screw 31 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 3. The free end of the lead screw 31 is rotatably connected inside the fixed housing 1. A threaded sleeve 32 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 31 and is fixedly connected to the water storage box 5. A slide rod 33 is fixedly mounted inside the fixed housing 1. A slide sleeve 34 is slidably connected to the slide rod 33 and is fixedly connected to the threaded sleeve 32.

[0033] Specifically, by setting up a driving component, when the motor 3 drives the lead screw 31 to rotate, the position of the water storage box 5 and the nozzle 6 can be adjusted to realize automatic watering of the Buddha's Hand inside the planting box 2.

[0034] The water supply component includes two hoses 4, both of which are fixedly connected to the water storage box 5. The end of the hose 4 away from the water storage box 5 is fixedly connected to the nozzle 6. A water supply pipe 41 is fixedly connected to the water storage box 5 and is located at the upper end of the motor 3. An adjusting screw 42 is threadedly connected to the water storage box 5. The bottom of the adjusting screw 42 passes through the water storage box 5 and is rotatably connected to a piston plate 43. A gear 44 is fixedly connected to the top of the adjusting screw 42, and a toothed plate 45 is meshed on the gear 44.

[0035] Specifically, by setting up a water supply component, when the driving component drives the water storage box 5 and the nozzle 6 to move laterally, the gear 44 rotates on the surface of the toothed plate 45. As the gear 44 rotates, it will drive the adjusting screw 42 to rotate, which will cause the adjusting screw 42 to drive the piston plate 43 to move downward to pressurize the water flow and discharge it through the nozzle 6. When the driving component drives the water storage box 5 and the nozzle 6 to move in the opposite direction, the piston plate 43 moves upward. By utilizing the negative pressure inside the water storage box 5, the effect of automatic water replenishment can be achieved.

[0036] The linkage includes a positioning plate 7, which is fixedly installed on the fixed shell 1 and is fixedly connected to the toothed plate 45. A limit rod 71 is fixedly connected to the positioning plate 7. A limit frame 72 and a bevel bracket 73 are slidably connected to the limit rod 71. The bevel bracket 73 is located inside the limit frame 72. Two torsion springs 74 are fixedly connected to the bevel bracket 73 and the limit frame 72 inside the limit frame 72. The torsion springs 74 are sleeved on the limit rod 71. The end of the bevel bracket 73 away from the limit rod 71 is fixedly connected to the nozzle 6. A guide plate 75 is fixedly connected to the positioning plate 7, and the bevel surface of the bevel bracket 73 contacts the bevel surface of the guide plate 75.

[0037] Specifically, by setting up a linkage component, when the driving component drives the nozzle 6 to move laterally, the inclined bracket 73 and the limiting bracket 72 move with the nozzle 6. Affected by the inclined pressure of the protruding surface of the guide plate 75, the angle of the inclined bracket 73 and the nozzle 6 can be adjusted, thereby increasing the irrigation range of the nozzle 6.

[0038] Working principle: During use, the operator starts the motor 3 using an external control switch. The output end of the motor 3 drives the lead screw 31 to rotate. When the lead screw 31 rotates, it drives the threaded sleeve 32 to move laterally. When the threaded sleeve 32 moves laterally, it drives the water storage box 5 to move laterally. When the water storage box 5 moves laterally, it drives the nozzle 6 and the gear 44 to move laterally. The gear 44 rotates on the surface of the toothed plate 45, which drives the adjusting screw 42 to rotate. The adjusting screw 42 rotates inside the water storage box 5 and moves downward. When the adjusting screw 42 moves downward, it drives the piston plate 43 to move downward. When the piston plate 43 moves downward, it applies pressure to the water flow inside the water storage box 5, causing it to be discharged through the nozzle 6, thus irrigating the Buddha's Hand inside the planting box 2.

[0039] Simultaneously, when the nozzle 6 moves laterally, it causes the inclined bracket 73 and the limiting bracket 72 to slide on the surface of the limiting rod 71. After the inclined opening of the inclined bracket 73 contacts the protruding inclined opening on the surface of the guide plate 75, the angle of the inclined bracket 73 tilts due to the pressure, causing the nozzle 6 to tilt along with the inclined bracket 73. After disengaging from the protruding inclined opening on the surface of the guide plate 75, the inclined bracket 73 and the nozzle 6 are reset under the reaction force of the torsion spring 74. Moreover, the guide plate 75 has multiple inclined openings on its surface. Affected by the multiple inclined openings, the nozzle 6 tilts and resets repeatedly, thereby adjusting the angle of the nozzle 6 and increasing the irrigation range of the nozzle 6.

[0040] Furthermore, after the nozzle 6 moves laterally to irrigate the inside of the planting box 2, the staff uses an external control switch to start the motor 3. The output end of the motor 3 drives the lead screw 31 to rotate in the opposite direction, causing the adjusting screw 42 to drive the piston plate 43 to move upward. At this time, the valve connected to the water supply pipe 41 is opened, and the negative pressure inside the water storage box 5 can draw the water flow in the water supply pipe 41 into its interior, realizing automatic water replenishment of the water storage box 5.

[0041] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
