[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0018] Example 1

[0019] This embodiment discloses a potato seedling planting trough, including a planting trough 10, planting pots 30 and a spraying mechanism. Multiple planting pots 30 are evenly arranged in the planting trough 10. The planting pots 30 are used for potato seedling cultivation. The spraying mechanism is used for watering, fertilizing and preventing and controlling pests and diseases, thereby improving the quality of potato seedling management.

[0020] The planting trough 10 is equipped with support legs 11 around its bottom. These legs allow the planting trough 10 to be erected to a certain height (see reference). Figure 2 A support plate 12 is provided above the bottom surface of the planting trough 10. The support plate 12 has a circular opening for placing the planting pot 30. Multiple openings are evenly spaced along the horizontal and vertical sides of the planting trough 10. In this embodiment, four openings are arranged horizontally and two openings are arranged vertically along the planting trough 10.

[0021] The planting pot 30 has a top opening diameter of 25-30cm and a height of 35cm. The larger volume is beneficial for potato seedling cultivation and root development. The bottom of the planting pot 30 is equipped with drainage holes. The upper outer edge of the planting pot 30 abuts against the support plate 12, and there is a distance between the bottom of the planting pot 30 and the inner bottom surface of the planting trough 10.

[0022] The sprinkler system includes troughs 14 arranged laterally on both sides of the top of the planting trough 10. Each trough 14 contains pulleys that slide within it. A U-shaped frame 24 is positioned between the pulleys on both sides. A nozzle 23 is mounted on the upper crossbar of the U-shaped frame 24, with the nozzle orifice facing downwards. The nozzle 23 is located above the planting pot 30. A water pump and a first water tank 21 are located below the planting trough 10. The water pump's inlet is connected to the first water tank 21 via a water pipe, and the water pump's outlet is connected to the nozzle 23 via a water pipe. The first water tank 21 serves as a liquid storage container, primarily used to store irrigation water, fertilizer, and pesticides for pest and disease control.

[0023] Drainage holes 13 are evenly distributed on the support plate 12. (Refer to...) Figure 2 The bottom surface of the planting trough 10 slopes from one end to the other, and a drain outlet is provided on the lower end side. A second water tank 22 is provided below the planting trough 10. The second water tank 22 is used to collect and store various recycled liquids. The drain outlet is connected to the second water tank 22 through a pipe, and a filter screen 16 is provided at the drain outlet. The side wall of the planting trough 10 is provided with a pick-up and drop opening 15 for easy removal and cleaning of the filter screen 16.

[0024] The working principle of this embodiment:

[0025] Virus-free potato tubers are planted in planting pot 30. Planting pot 30 is inserted into the opening of support plate 12. At this time, the outer edge of the top opening of planting pot 30 abuts against support plate 12 to support planting pot 30. The bottom of planting pot 30 is separated from the bottom surface of planting trough 10 to facilitate drainage of planting pot 30.

[0026] During the seedling stage, irrigation water, fertilizer, or pesticides for pest and disease control can be added to the first water tank 21, and the spraying mechanism can be used to spray each planting pot 30.

[0027] The spraying process of the sprinkler system is as follows: the water pump is started, the water pump draws liquid from the first water tank 21 and delivers the liquid to the nozzle 23 through the pipeline. The U-shaped frame 24 is moved manually, and each planting pot 30 is sprayed evenly through the nozzle 23. Excess water in the planting pot 30 drips into the bottom of the planting trough 10 through the drainage hole at its bottom. At the same time, the liquid sprayed on the surface of the support plate 12 drips into the bottom of the planting trough 10 through the drainage hole 13. After the liquid gathers, it flows along the inclined inner bottom of the planting trough 10 to its lower end, is filtered by the filter screen 16 at the drain outlet, and flows into the second water tank 22 for collection, which is convenient for resource reuse.

[0028] The specific model of the water pump can be determined based on the actual specifications of the planting trough 10 and the water tank, and can be purchased and installed from commercially available water pump products. In this embodiment, the water pump can be a Xinjie QDX type submersible pump, such as QDX1.5-17-0.37L3 / 1 inch. The installation of the water pump and the connection of the nozzle 23 are existing technologies known to those skilled in the art, and will not be described in detail here.

[0029] Example 2

[0030] Example 2 is a further improvement on Example 1.

[0031] This embodiment discloses a potato seedling planting trough (refer to...). Figure 2 The planting pot 30 adopts a nested double-layer structure, including an outer planting pot 32 and an inner planting pot 31, wherein (refer to...) Figure 4 The outer planting pot 32 has a first drainage hole 322 at the bottom and a limiting rib 321 on the inner wall of the outer planting pot 32. The limiting rib 321 extends from the bottom of the side wall of the outer planting pot 32 to the top. Multiple limiting ribs 321 are evenly distributed circumferentially along the inner wall of the outer planting pot 32. In this embodiment, four limiting ribs 321 are evenly distributed on the inner wall of the outer planting pot 32.

[0032] Reference Figure 3 The inner planting pot 31 is embedded inside the outer planting pot 32, and the height of the inner planting pot 31 is higher than that of the outer planting pot 32. The inner planting pot 31 adopts a frame structure, including a tray 313 at the bottom and an annular connecting part 311 above the tray 313. A support groove plate 312 is provided between the annular connecting part 311 and the tray 313. The support groove plate 312 is inserted and engaged with the limiting rib 321. The number of support groove plates 312 and the limiting rib 321 are the same and their positions correspond. In this application, four support groove plates 312 are evenly distributed in the inner planting pot 31.

[0033] Reference Figure 3 The bottom of the inner planting pot 31 is provided with a second drainage hole 314, which is the same number as the first drainage hole 322 and is located in the same position.

[0034] The upper part of the annular connecting part 311 of the inner planting pot 31, that is, the outer edge of the pot opening of the inner planting pot 31, is provided with a handle, which makes it easy to lift the inner planting pot 31 separately to observe the root development of the plant.

[0035] The working process of this embodiment follows that of Embodiment 1, and is specifically described as follows:

[0036] Before seedling cultivation, virus-free potato tubers are planted by nesting the inner planting pot 31 and the outer planting pot 32. The outer planting pot 32 provides overall support and supports the planting soil from the outside.

[0037] During the seedling stage, after watering, as the potato tuber roots continue to grow, the inner planting pot 31 can be lifted separately, separating it from the outer planting pot 32. This allows for observation of potato root development between adjacent support troughs 312, facilitating precise management of the potato seedlings. The support troughs 312 and the limiting ribs 321 are interlocked, ensuring precise alignment of the first drainage hole 314 and the second drainage hole 322, facilitating the timely drainage of excess water from the planting pot 30.

[0038] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
