Description

A high-efficiency plant cultivation device Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of plant seedbed cultivation technology, and in particular to a high-efficiency cultivation device for plants. Background Technology

[0002] Seedbed cultivation refers to the cultivation of seedlings in a specific environment and with specific nutrients. It mainly refers to the cultivation of plant seedlings in nurseries, hotbeds, or greenhouses in preparation for transplanting into the ground. After the seedling stage, the roots develop rapidly and need to obtain a large amount of necessary nutrients from the soil. At this time, the pot space in the seedbed can no longer meet the growth needs of the plant roots. The usual practice at this time is to repot and transplant.

[0003] Conventional seedbeds often use rectangular seedbeds and divide the seedlings into equal sections for sowing. It is difficult to control the uniformity of nutrition during cultivation, which leads to differences in growth rate. Furthermore, the roots of adjacent plants are prone to intertwining and are not easy to separate. When transplanting, it is necessary to cut off the soil around the plant and pull it out together, which will cause some damage to the plant's roots and affect the subsequent transplanting quality. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a highly efficient plant cultivation device that enables seedlings to grow independently without affecting each other, while maintaining the same cultivation environment in the same substrate. This ensures that most seedlings maintain similar growth conditions, and allows for the selection of superior individuals and the elimination of inferior ones, achieving efficient seedling cultivation with simultaneous planting and transplanting. Furthermore, when transplanting seedlings after cultivation, there is no need to pull them out, avoiding wasted time and ensuring the integrity of the seedling roots, thus improving transplanting quality.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, a high-efficiency plant cultivation device is provided, comprising: a culture medium bed, a partition rack fixedly connected to the top inner side of the culture medium bed, a culture solution pool located at the bottom inner side of the culture medium bed, a plurality of T-shaped slots arranged in a rectangular array at the top of the partition rack, the T-shaped slots communicating downwards with the culture solution pool, ceramic seedling tanks slidably mounted on the inner side of each T-shaped slot, a plurality of drainage holes arranged in a circular array at the bottom of each ceramic seedling tank, the drainage holes connecting the ceramic seedling tank and the culture solution pool vertically, and an annular gasket extending from the outer top of each ceramic seedling tank. The ceramic seedling tanks, in conjunction with the T-shaped slot array mounted on top of the partition rack, are designed for independent cultivation. The ceramic seedling jars are designed for seedling cultivation, allowing the pre-drained holes at the bottom to connect with the nutrient solution pool inside the culture medium bed and absorb nutrients. This ensures that seedlings grow independently without affecting each other, while maintaining the same culture environment within the same substrate. This ensures that most seedlings maintain similar growth conditions and allows for the selection of superior individuals and the elimination of inferior ones, enabling efficient seedling cultivation with simultaneous planting and transplanting. Furthermore, conventional crude ceramic seedling jars are not easily broken and do not cause environmental pollution. They are also economical. When transplanting seedlings, the jars can be broken directly for planting without pulling out the seedlings, saving time and ensuring the integrity of the seedling roots, thus improving transplanting quality.

[0006] According to the aforementioned high-efficiency plant cultivation equipment, the culture medium bed has several symmetrically arranged liquid guiding holes on its left and right sides in a cross shape. A three-way conduit is fixedly connected to each of the opposite sides of the liquid guiding holes, and a liquid extraction pipe is fixedly connected to the center of each opposite side of the three-way conduit. A liquid storage tank is fixedly connected to the outer side of the lower middle end of each liquid extraction pipe. This facilitates the continuous introduction of culture medium into the culture medium tank.

[0007] According to the aforementioned high-efficiency plant cultivation device, each of the upper front sides of the liquid storage tank is provided with a liquid replenishment port, and each of the upper middle ends of the liquid extraction pipe is equipped with a pressure pump. The outer side of the pressure pump is correspondingly fitted and fixed to the liquid storage tank, providing stable liquid extraction power and a liquid replenishment port.

[0008] According to the aforementioned high-efficiency plant cultivation device, insertion holes are provided on both the left and right sides of the annular opening. Inserting rods slide within each insertion hole, and Z-shaped support rods are fixedly connected to the opposite ends of the inserting rods. Rubber sleeves are fixedly connected to the outer sides of the opposite ends of the Z-shaped support rods. This facilitates quick removal of the ceramic seedling container.

[0009] According to the aforementioned high-efficiency plant cultivation equipment, a plurality of support rods are symmetrically arranged in a cross shape on the top of the culture medium bed. These support rods are vertically erected and penetrate downwards through the culture medium bed, being fixedly connected to it. A base pad is fixedly connected to the bottom end of each support rod. This elevates the culture medium bed, preventing damage from rodents and ants, and mitigating the impact of geothermal heat on the stability of the cultivation temperature.

[0010] According to the aforementioned high-efficiency plant cultivation equipment, a top cover is horizontally mounted directly above the culture medium bed. Several sets of fluorescent lamps are fitted and mounted on the top cover in a left-right direction. Support rods extend upwards through the top cover and are locked in place with it vertically. This provides a stable and comprehensive lighting environment.

[0011] According to the aforementioned high-efficiency plant cultivation device, each of the outer ends of the support rods is threaded with a sleeve, and the bottom of each sleeve is fitted into the top cover. This secures the top cover and prevents it from sliding up and down.

[0012] According to the aforementioned high-efficiency plant cultivation equipment, the bottom of each annular gasket is press-fitted with a rubber gasket, and the bottom of each rubber gasket is fixedly connected to the partition groove frame. This provides elastic cushioning protection when the tank is inserted and placed along the T-slot to prevent damage from impacts.

[0013] The above-mentioned solution has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] In this invention, ceramic seedling tanks are used in conjunction with T-shaped slot arrays mounted on top of a partition rack for independent seedling cultivation. Simultaneously, the pre-set drainage holes at the bottom of the ceramic seedling tanks connect with the nutrient solution pool inside the culture medium bed, allowing for nutrient absorption. This ensures independent seedling growth without interference from others, while maintaining a consistent culture environment within the same substrate. This ensures that most seedlings maintain similar growth conditions, and allows for the selection of superior individuals and the elimination of inferior ones, achieving efficient seedling cultivation with simultaneous planting and transplanting. Furthermore, conventional crude ceramic seedling tanks are easily broken and do not cause environmental pollution; they are also economical. Upon transplanting, the tanks can be broken directly for planting without removing the seedlings, saving time and ensuring the integrity of the seedling roots, thus improving transplant quality.

[0015] Additional aspects and advantages of this invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention. Attached Figure Description
