Description

A Chinese medicinal herb cultivation and seedling raising device Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine cultivation technology, specifically a device for planting and cultivating seedlings of traditional Chinese medicine. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) originated primarily in China and boasts a long history and profound cultural heritage. Guided by TCM theory, it comprises medicines widely used for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases, as well as for regulating bodily functions.

[0003] The cultivation of Chinese medicinal herbs is an important source of traditional Chinese medicine and occupies a fundamental and crucial position in the Chinese medicine industry chain. Using seedling trays to cultivate Chinese medicinal herb seedlings is an effective seedling cultivation method. It can provide seedlings with relatively independent growth space, which is conducive to maintaining the stability of environmental factors such as soil moisture and temperature, thereby promoting seedling growth.

[0004] Currently, some seedling cultivation devices employ multi-layered structures to improve space utilization, which to some extent solves the problem of limited planting space. However, this structure has significant shortcomings in terms of environmental parameter control. For example, temperature and humidity are crucial for the growth and development of medicinal herb seedlings. Different types of medicinal herb seedlings have different requirements for temperature and humidity, but existing devices often struggle to precisely control temperature and humidity within suitable ranges. Light conditions are also a key factor affecting seedling growth; light intensity and duration need to be precisely adjusted according to different seedling species, but current devices lack precision in this regard.

[0005] Regarding air circulation, most existing systems rely primarily on natural ventilation. While natural ventilation can meet some air exchange needs in certain situations, it has significant limitations in enclosed spaces. Medicinal herb seedlings require ample fresh air for respiration during their growth, and natural ventilation struggles to provide a stable and suitable air environment, failing to meet their fresh air requirements. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a device for planting and cultivating Chinese medicinal herbs, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a Chinese herbal medicine planting and seedling raising device, comprising a main body, a support base installed below the main body, an air inlet provided at the lower end of the main body, a water supply module installed above the air inlet, a seedling rack installed below the water supply module, a heating block installed below the seedling rack, and a fan assembly installed above the heating block.

[0008] Preferably, the water replenishment module includes a water inlet, a water distribution device installed on the water inlet, a branch pipe installed on the water distribution device, an atomizing nozzle installed on the branch pipe, an information transmission module installed at the other end of the branch pipe, an information processing center installed on the right side of the information transmission module, and a fluorescent tube installed on the left side of the information transmission module.

[0009] Preferably, the information processing center intelligently controls the water spray volume of the water supply module and the irradiation intensity of the fluorescent tubes through the information transmission module based on the pre-set Chinese herbal seedling cultivation data.

[0010] Preferably, the seedling rack is provided with a tray, and the tray is provided with lamp tube mounting slots on both sides, and the lamp tube mounting slots are provided with ventilation openings on the upper and lower sides.

[0011] Preferably, the fan assembly is equipped with multiple exhaust fans, which extract air from the main body and allow fresh air to enter the main body through the air inlet. Then, under the action of the exhaust fans, the fresh air flows to various parts of the main body through the ventilation openings on the seedling rack.

[0012] Preferably, the transparent door installed at the front of the main body and the transparent panel installed at the rear allow for direct observation of the seedling cultivation inside the main body, while also increasing the area of ​​natural light illuminating the interior of the main body.

[0019] 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.

[0020] Example: Please refer to Figure 1. This utility model provides a technical solution: a Chinese herbal medicine planting and seedling raising device, including a main body 1, a support base 2 installed below the main body 1, an air inlet 3 provided at the lower end of the main body 1, a water supply module 4 installed above the air inlet 3, a seedling rack 5 installed below the water supply module 4, a heating block 6 installed below the seedling rack 5, and a fan assembly 8 installed above the heating block 6.

[0021] The water replenishment module 4 includes a water inlet 9, a water distribution device 10 installed on the water inlet 9, a branch pipe 11 installed on the water distribution device 10, an atomizing nozzle 12 installed on the branch pipe 11, an information transmission module 14 installed at the other end of the branch pipe 11, an information processing center 15 installed on the right side of the information transmission module 14, and a fluorescent tube 13 installed on the left side of the information transmission module 14.

[0022] The information processing center 15 intelligently controls the water spray volume of the water supply module 4 and the irradiation intensity of the fluorescent tube 13 through the information transmission module 14 based on the pre-set Chinese herbal seedling cultivation data.

[0023] In this embodiment, the water supply module enables precise irrigation, preventing localized waterlogging or drought and providing a suitable moisture environment for seedlings. Simultaneously, the information transmission module connects the water supply module and the information processing center. The information processing center can intelligently control the water supply module's spray volume based on pre-set herbal seedling data via the information transmission module. This eliminates the need for frequent manual operation, saving significant labor costs. Furthermore, intelligent control ensures that seedlings maintain an optimal moisture environment throughout their growth process, greatly improving seedling quality and efficiency.

[0024] Regarding lighting, the information processing center can intelligently control the intensity of fluorescent lamps through an information transmission module. This intelligent control of light intensity meets the needs of seedlings at various growth stages. Appropriate light intensity helps seedlings perform photosynthesis, thus providing sufficient energy and nutrients for their growth and development, and improving the success rate of seedling cultivation.

[0025] The seedling rack 5 is equipped with a tray 17, and the tray 17 has lamp tube mounting slots 18 on both sides. The lamp tube mounting slots 18 have ventilation openings 16 on the upper and lower sides.

[0026] The fan assembly 8 is equipped with multiple exhaust fans, which extract the air from the main body 1. Fresh air enters the main body 1 through the air inlet 3, and then flows to various positions of the main body 1 through the ventilation openings 16 set on the seedling rack 5 under the action of the exhaust fans.

[0027] In this embodiment, lamp mounting slots are provided on both sides of the tray. This structural design makes the installation of fluorescent lamps more convenient and allows for a more rational lamp layout. A reasonable lamp layout ensures that light can evenly cover the seedling area, avoiding any dark corners and thus guaranteeing uniform light distribution for seedlings, providing a strong guarantee for their healthy growth.

[0028] The fan unit is equipped with multiple exhaust fans. This design, in conjunction with the air inlet and the ventilation openings on the seedling rack, enables efficient air circulation within the main unit. This ensures the freshness of the air inside, promptly removes harmful gases, and provides a suitable air environment for seedling cultivation. This is because seedlings need to respire during their growth, and fresh air provides sufficient oxygen for respiration, thereby promoting seedling growth.

[0029] The transparent door 7 installed at the front of the main body 1 and the transparent panel installed at the rear allow for a direct observation of the seedling cultivation inside the main body 1, while also increasing the area of ​​natural light illuminating the interior of the main body 1.

[0030] In this embodiment, on the one hand, it allows staff to directly observe the seedling cultivation inside the main structure. Through the transparent doors and panels, various problems arising during the seedling process can be detected promptly, such as pest and disease infestations, excessive or insufficient moisture, allowing for timely intervention and prevention of further deterioration. On the other hand, the presence of transparent doors and panels increases the area illuminated by natural light inside the main structure. Increased natural light offers numerous benefits, reducing the need for artificial lighting and thus saving energy. Furthermore, natural light contains various spectral components that positively promote the growth and development of medicinal herb seedlings.

[0031] Working principle: In the actual operation process, the transparent door 7 is first opened and the seedling tray is placed on the tray 17 of the seedling rack 5. The seedling rack 5 is a device specially designed for seedling cultivation, and its tray 17 can stably support the seedling tray, providing a suitable placement space for seedling cultivation.

[0032] Next, the water pipe connecting to the water source needs to be connected to the inlet 9. This inlet 9 is the entrance to the entire irrigation system, and the stability of the connection is crucial for subsequent water supply operations. After the connection is complete, the water will be evenly distributed to the branch pipes 11 through the water distribution device 10. The function of the water distribution device 10 is to accurately and rationally allocate the water source, ensuring that each branch pipe 11 receives a uniform water supply.

[0033] Then, relying on the seedling data pre-input into the information processing center 15, which includes important information such as environmental parameters required for each stage of seedling growth, the information transmission module 14 controls the switching on and off of the atomizing nozzles 12 on the branch pipe 11. The atomizing nozzles 12 spray water in atomized form, providing the seedlings with an appropriate amount of moisture. At the same time, it can also control the irradiation intensity of the fluorescent tubes 13 installed on the seedling rack 5. The fluorescent tubes 13 are important devices for providing light to the seedlings, and the reasonable control of their irradiation intensity has an undeniable impact on the photosynthesis and overall growth and development of the seedlings, thereby ensuring that the entire seedling environment reaches a state suitable for seedling growth.

[0034] During this process, the fans inside fan assembly 8 also function. The fans in fan assembly 8 continuously draw air out of the main body 1, maintaining internal air circulation. Simultaneously, fresh air enters the main body 1 through air inlet 3, which serves as the channel for fresh air intake. The incoming fresh air is then distributed to various corners through ventilation openings 16 on the seedling rack 5, ensuring a supply of fresh air to each seedling area and meeting the air requirements for seedling respiration.

[0035] In addition, the heating block 6 at the bottom will function as a heater in winter or when the temperature is low. Located at the bottom, the heating block 6 heats the incoming cold air as it enters through the air inlet 3. This is to raise the internal temperature of the main body 1, as low temperatures can negatively impact seedling growth. Heating ensures the seedlings can grow normally at a suitable temperature, preventing problems such as stunted growth or frost damage caused by low temperatures.

[0036] In the description of this utility model, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set," "install," "connect," and "link" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0037] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
