Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of maize breeding technology, specifically to a maize breeding germination device. Background Technology
[0002] Corn breeding is a crucial part of agricultural production, and germination, as a key step in the breeding process, directly affects the germination rate of seeds and the growth quality of seedlings. Traditional methods of germinating corn seeds often involve wrapping them in damp gauze or using a sand bed. However, this method limits the number of seeds that can be germinated, and wrapping multiple seeds together is not conducive to the germination process.
[0003] Therefore, further, in the prior art, corn seeds are germinated by using a constant temperature and humidity germination box, in which multiple corn seeds are placed separately in the box, and a germination device that can control temperature and humidity is used to germinate the seeds, thereby improving germination efficiency and germination quality.
[0004] However, when using this germination device, after multiple seeds have germinated, it is often necessary to remove each seed individually and transplant them into potted soil. This operation is inefficient and requires a lot of manpower. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a corn breeding germination device to solve the technical problem in the prior art that the need to transplant corn seeds one by one leads to a delay in germination and breeding efficiency.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model specifically provides the following technical solution:
[0007] A corn breeding and germination device includes a temperature and humidity control box. A feeding plate is located at the bottom of the box, and multiple feeding holes are provided on the feeding plate. A transverse plate is slidably mounted on the upper surface of the feeding plate, and multiple position holes are provided on the transverse plate. Corn seeds are placed in the position holes, and the multiple position holes are positioned one-to-one with the multiple feeding holes on one side. One end of the transverse plate is connected to a transverse drive source to drive the transverse plate to move and align the position holes with the feeding holes. Multiple transplanting pots are detachably mounted below the feeding plate to receive corn seeds falling from the position holes.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the feeding plate includes two fixed plates, which are respectively fixedly disposed on both sides of the bottom of the temperature and humidity control box, forming a feeding area between the two fixed plates. An auxiliary moving plate is disposed in the feeding area, and the feeding hole is disposed on the auxiliary moving plate. The two ends of the auxiliary moving plate are slidably sleeved on the outside of the fixed plate. The auxiliary moving plate is connected to the transverse moving plate through a linkage structure. The transverse moving drive source drives the transverse moving plate and the auxiliary moving plate to move synchronously in opposite directions.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, upright wing plates are fixedly provided on both sides of the auxiliary moving plate, and sliders are fixedly provided on the sides of the upright wing plates. A sliding groove is provided on the wall of the temperature and humidity control box, and the slider is slidably embedded in the sliding groove.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the linkage structure includes toothed grooves formed on the sides of the transverse plate and the upright wing plate, and a linkage gear meshing with the toothed grooves. The linkage gear is disposed between the upright wing plate and the transverse plate, and the transverse plate drives the auxiliary plate to slide synchronously in opposite directions through the linkage gear.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a soil covering structure is provided on the bottom surface of the auxiliary moving plate. The soil covering structure includes a soil turning plate and a soil covering plate. The soil turning plate is rotatably disposed on one side of the discharge hole via a one-way hinge. The soil covering plate is disposed on the side of the soil turning plate away from the discharge hole. The length of the soil turning plate is greater than the length of the soil covering plate.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages:
[0013] This invention features a position hole and a feeding hole on a horizontal sliding plate and an auxiliary moving plate, respectively. During germination, the position hole and feeding hole are staggered, ensuring the temperature and humidity control box remains sealed and creating a suitable germination environment. After germination, the horizontal movement of the horizontal sliding plate aligns the position hole and feeding hole, allowing the corn seeds to fall directly and accurately into the transplanting pot below, reducing seed transplanting steps and improving overall germination and breeding efficiency. Furthermore, the linkage structure and soil-covering structure enable the auxiliary moving plate to move synchronously and automatically create a recessed planting position in the transplanting pot below. When the auxiliary moving plate returns to its original position, soil is filled into the planting position, further reducing the overall planting operation steps. Attached Figure Description

[0023] 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.
[0024] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, this utility model provides a corn seed germination device, including a temperature and humidity control box 1. The temperature and humidity control box 1 adopts a constant temperature and humidity control system in the prior art, which can control the temperature and humidity inside the box to provide a suitable environment for corn seed germination. Specifically, the temperature range can be set to 20-30℃, and the humidity range can be set to 70%-90% to meet the germination requirements of corn seeds. The constant temperature and humidity control system can be installed on the box lid.
[0025] The temperature and humidity control box 1 has a rectangular box structure and is equipped with a heating device and a humidification device inside. A feeding plate 2 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the box. Multiple feeding holes 3 are evenly distributed on the feeding plate 2. The diameter of each feeding hole 3 is slightly larger to suit the germination and passage of corn seeds.
[0026] A transverse plate 4 is slidably disposed on the upper surface of the feeding plate 2. The transverse plate 4 is a rectangular plate structure and is slidably disposed on the upper surface of the feeding plate 2. Multiple position holes 5 are opened on the transverse plate 4 for placing a single corn seed. The multiple position holes 5 are arranged one-to-one with the multiple feeding holes 3 on one side, so that the position holes 5 and the feeding holes 3 are misaligned to prevent the internal environment of the temperature and humidity control box 1 from being linked with the external environment, thereby ensuring that the internal temperature and humidity are suitable for seed germination.
[0027] The transverse plate 4 is slidably connected to the unloading plate 2 via a guide rail or slide 13 to ensure smooth sliding. One end of the transverse plate 4 is connected to a transverse drive source 6, as shown in the figure. One end of the transverse plate 4 penetrates the wall of the temperature and humidity control box 1 and is located on the outside. This end is connected to the transverse drive source 6, which can be manually driven or motor driven, so that the position hole 5 is aligned or misaligned with the unloading hole 3.
[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, multiple transplanting pots 7 are detachably installed below the feed plate 2. The opening of each transplanting pot 7 is located below the feed hole 3, and the pot is pre-filled with nutrient soil suitable for the growth of corn seedlings (such as a mixture of humus and sand). The transplanting pots 7 are fixed to the bottom of the feed plate 2 by snap-fit or magnetic structure, which facilitates quick disassembly and replacement.
[0029] In practical use, individual corn seeds are placed into the position holes 5 of the transverse plate 4. The initial position of the transverse plate 4 is such that the position holes 5 are misaligned with the feeding holes 3, thereby sealing the environment inside the temperature and humidity control chamber 1 for seed germination. Then, the temperature and humidity control chamber 1 is activated, and the internal environment is adjusted to suitable temperature and humidity conditions (e.g., temperature 25℃, humidity 80%) for germination treatment. The duration is typically 48-72 hours, depending on the seed variety.
[0030] After germination is completed, the transverse drive source 6 is activated, which drives the transverse plate 4 to slide. At this time, the position hole 5 moves the corn seeds inside it. When the position hole 5 is aligned with the feeding hole 3, the corn seeds in the position hole 5 fall into the transplanting pot 7 below through the feeding hole 3.
[0031] Finally, the transplanting pot 7 was disassembled and the transplanting pot 7 containing the germinated seeds was transferred to the seedling area for subsequent cultivation, avoiding the traditional operation of taking seeds and transplanting them one by one, and reducing mechanical damage to the seedlings.
[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, to further shorten the displacement path of the transverse plate 4 and to cover the transplanting pot 7 with soil, the feeding plate 2 in this utility model includes two fixed plates 8. The two fixed plates 8 are respectively fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom of the temperature and humidity control box 1. The fixed plates 8 are fixedly and sealed to the box wall of the temperature and humidity control box 1 without gaps. The two fixed plates 8 are coplanar. A feeding area 9 is formed between the opposite positions of the two fixed plates 8. An auxiliary moving plate 10 is provided in the feeding area 9. The feeding hole 3 is provided on the auxiliary moving plate 10. A sealing element can be provided on the side of the auxiliary moving plate 10 to contact the inner wall of the temperature and humidity control box 1, thereby avoiding the accelerated destruction of the constant temperature and humidity environment inside the temperature and humidity control box 1. The two ends of the auxiliary moving plate 10 are slidably sleeved on the outside of the fixed plate 8. The sealing degree between the auxiliary moving plate 10 and the fixed plate 8 can be improved by the plug-in sleeve connection method. A rubber ring can be added at the connection position to improve the sealing performance and further maintain the suitable temperature inside the temperature and humidity control box 1. The auxiliary moving plate 10 is connected to the transverse moving plate 4 through a linkage structure. The transverse moving drive source 6 drives the transverse moving plate 4 and the auxiliary moving plate 10 to move synchronously in opposite directions.
[0033] Among them, such as Figure 5 As shown, the sliding connection between the auxiliary moving plate 10 and the temperature and humidity control box 1 can be achieved by connecting the slider 12 and the slide groove 13. Specifically, upright wing plates 11 are fixedly installed on both sides of the auxiliary moving plate 10, and sliders 12 are fixedly installed on the sides of the upright wing plates 11. The box wall of the temperature and humidity control box 1 is provided with a slide groove 13, and the slider 12 is slidably embedded in the slide groove 13.
[0034] like Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, the linkage structure includes toothed grooves 14 formed on the sides of the transverse plate 4 and the vertical wing plate 11, and a linkage gear 15 meshing with the toothed grooves 14. The linkage gear 15 is located between the transverse plate 4 and the auxiliary moving plate 10. When the transverse drive source 6 drives the transverse plate 4 to move, the toothed grooves 14 on the transverse plate 4 drive the linkage gear 15 to rotate. The linkage gear 15 then drives the auxiliary moving plate 10 to move in the opposite direction through the toothed grooves 14 on the vertical wing plate 11, realizing the synchronous and opposite sliding of the transverse plate 4 and the auxiliary moving plate 10. The purpose of this device is to simultaneously drive the position hole 5 and the discharge hole 3 to move synchronously towards each other, achieving faster alignment with less stroke. In addition, a soil covering structure is provided on the bottom surface of the auxiliary moving plate 10. The soil covering structure includes a soil turning plate 16 and a soil covering plate 17. The soil turning plate 16 is located on one side of the discharge hole 3, and the soil covering plate 17 is located on the side of the soil turning plate 16 away from the discharge hole 3. The length of the soil turning plate 16 is greater than the length of the soil covering plate 17, which is inserted into the transplanting pot 7. When the auxiliary moving plate 10 moves, it drives the soil turning plate 16 to move synchronously. At this time, the one-way hinge 18 restricts the soil turning plate 16 to keep it upright, turning the soil in the transplanting pot 7 to form a concave transplanting position. Then the discharge hole 3 and the position hole 5 are aligned, and the corn seeds fall into the transplanting pot. After the position is reached, the auxiliary moving plate 10 slides in the opposite direction, causing the soil turning plate 16 and the soil covering plate 17 to move synchronously. Due to the unidirectional rotational nature of the one-way hinge 18, the soil turning plate 16 rotates when it touches the corn planting during the reverse movement, so as not to push the corn seeds to move. At the same time, the soil covering plate 17 pushes the soil turned up by the soil turning plate 16 back into the transplanting position. At this time, part of the soil covers the corn seeds and part of the soil covers the soil turning plate 16. After the transplanting pot 7 is disassembled and removed, the soil turning plate 16 leaves the transplanting pot 7, so that the soil can completely cover the corn seeds to form a wrap.
[0035] The above embodiments are merely exemplary embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit this application. The scope of protection of this application is defined by the claims. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications or equivalent substitutions to this application within its substance and scope of protection, and such modifications or equivalent substitutions should also be considered to fall within the scope of protection of this application.
