Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of seedling tray technology, specifically a seedling tray for celery cultivation. Background Technology

[0002] Celery, as a widely cultivated vegetable, plays a crucial role in its seedling cultivation process. The success of celery seedling cultivation directly affects the subsequent growth, yield, and quality of the plants. Seedling trays are commonly used tools in celery seedling cultivation, providing uniform substrate distribution and good drainage, which helps seed germination and growth.

[0003] The materials used to manufacture seedling trays generally include polystyrene foam, polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride, and polypropylene, and they are usually made using injection molding or blow molding methods to create trays with multiple planting holes. When using seedling trays, the preparation and replacement of the substrate is often a time-consuming and labor-intensive process. Traditional seedling trays are typically fixed containers where the soil substrate needs to be manually filled into each planting hole. When changing the substrate or dividing the seedlings, the plants usually need to be removed from the tray one by one, and then the old substrate needs to be cleaned up. This process, due to the limited space in the planting holes, can easily damage the celery seedlings. Furthermore, existing seedling trays require considerable time to cover with an insulating film, and this film needs to be covered again when replanting celery seedlings after transplanting, making the entire process cumbersome and inconvenient.

Detailed Implementation

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. 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.

[0022] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 6 A seedling tray for celery cultivation includes a tray section 10, a base section 20, a support section 30, and a cover section 40. The tray section 10 has multiple planting areas for celery seedling cultivation. Each planting area has an opening at its bottom, and the base section 20 has multiple sealing sections, each sealing section corresponding to a planting area on the tray section 10 to cover its opening. The support section 30 is located on the outside of the tray section 10 and the base section 20, and a limiting plate 31 is formed on the support section 30 to support the tray section 10 and prevent the tray section 10 from shifting downwards. After seedling cultivation, by pushing the base section 20 upwards, the celery seedlings planted in the soil substrate in the planting areas of the tray section 10 can be pushed out. After removing the soil substrate and celery seedlings as a whole, the user can easily transplant the celery seedlings. The cover portion 40 is rotatably connected to one side of the tray portion 10, and the cover portion 40 is used to cover the planting area on the tray portion 10 with the heat insulation film 42, so that the heat insulation film 42 can be used to cover and keep warm.

[0023] See Figure 3 and Figure 4The tray 10 includes a top plate 11 on which a plurality of planting seats 12 are formed. Each planting seat 12 is frustoconical with a top cross-section larger than its bottom cross-section, and the inner cavity of each planting seat 12 is open upward, allowing the user to place soil substrate and plant celery seedlings. The planting seats 12 constitute the planting area of ​​the tray 10. Each planting seat 12 has a removal opening 121 at its bottom, which communicates with its inner cavity and forms an opening at the bottom of the planting area. A groove 111 is formed on the top of the top plate 11. The cover 40 is rotatably connected to the top plate 11, and the cover 40 can be deflected to close the groove 111. A support block 13 is formed protruding outward on the side of the top plate 11 near the cover 40, which can be used to support the deflected and opened cover 40.

[0024] See Figure 5 The base portion 20 includes a base plate 21. The top of the base plate 21 has a number of sleeves 22 equal to the number of planting seats 12. Each sleeve 22 has a seedling tray 23 detachably secured to it. The top of each seedling tray 23 extends into the planting seat 12 above it, and the seedling tray 23 blocks the removal port 121 of the planting seat 12 above it. In this embodiment, the seedling tray 23 includes an insertion shaft 231, a sealing plate 232, and a positioning plate 233. The lower end of the insertion shaft 231 is secured to the sleeve 22, and the top end of the sleeve 22 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sealing plate 232. The sealing plate 232 cooperates with the removal port 121 and is used to block the removal port 121. The positioning plate 233 is formed on the top of the sealing plate 232 and is located in the inner cavity of the planting seat 12. The positioning plate 233 is used to support the soil substrate. Pushing the base plate 21 upwards allows the positioning plate 233 to push the soil substrate and celery seedlings it supports upwards to a certain height, and then the user can remove the soil substrate as a whole.

[0025] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The cover portion 40 includes an outer frame 41 and an insulating film 42. The shape and size of the outer frame 41 are adapted to the shape and size of the groove 111, and the outer frame 41 is rotatably connected to the top plate 11 by a pin. The insulating film 42 is bonded and fixed to the top of the outer frame 41, and a plurality of ventilation holes 43 are pre-formed on the insulating film 42 so that when the cover portion 40 covers the groove 111, it faces the planting seat 12, so that when the insulating film 42 is used to cover and keep the planting area warm, the ventilation holes 43 can also be used to keep the planting area breathable.

[0026] Of all the solutions mentioned above, those involving the connection between two components can be selected according to the actual situation, such as welding, bolt and nut connection, bolt or screw connection, or other known connection methods, which will not be elaborated here. For all the fixed connections mentioned above, welding is preferred. Although embodiments of this utility model have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model.
