Description

Technical Field

Traditional germination equipment is complex in structure, integrating numerous precision temperature and humidity control components and intricate piping systems. This not only leads to high manufacturing costs but also makes repairs extremely difficult if any component malfunctions, severely impacting the continuity and timeliness of germination work. Most devices struggle to precisely control the temperature, humidity, and gas composition in the germination environment, failing to meet the individualized germination requirements of different seed species. For example, some seeds are extremely sensitive to humidity changes, and traditional humidification systems cannot provide a stable and precise humidity supply, easily leading to reduced germination rates due to excessive dryness or moisture. Regarding air circulation, some germination devices suffer from poor internal air circulation, making it difficult for carbon dioxide produced by seed respiration to escape and resulting in insufficient oxygen supply, severely hindering normal seed germination. Furthermore, many germination devices lack effective stirring functions, causing localized seed accumulation during germination and resulting in contact between seeds from different areas.

Detailed Implementation

[0027] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0028] Example 1: As Figures 1-4 ,include:

[0029] The outer cylinder 100 has a germination chamber 130 fixedly installed on its inner wall. The cavity between the germination chamber 130 and the outer cylinder 100 is a water tank 140. The side wall of the germination chamber 130 has a through hole 131, and a sponge water guide strip 132 is installed on the inner wall of the through hole 131.

[0030] A stirring assembly, comprising a stirring shaft 220 and stirring blades 230;

[0031] A top cover assembly, comprising a sealing cover 300, the top of which closes to a top cover 310.

[0032] The specific application scenario of this embodiment is as follows: the outer cylinder 100 and the germination chamber 130 constitute the main frame of the device. The water tank 140 between the two stores water. The through holes 131 on the side wall of the germination chamber 130, together with the sponge water guide strip 132, utilize the water absorption and capillary phenomenon of the sponge to slowly introduce the water in the water tank 140 into the germination chamber 130, providing the required humidity environment for seed germination. The stirring shaft 220 and stirring blade 230 in the stirring assembly can be manually or connected to a power source to stir the seeds in the germination chamber 130, so that the seeds are evenly exposed to environmental conditions such as water and temperature, avoiding uneven germination caused by local accumulation of seeds. The sealing cover 300 and the top cover 310 of the top cover assembly play a sealing role to prevent the evaporation of water in the germination chamber 130 and the entry of external impurities, thus maintaining the stability of the germination environment.

[0033] Example 2: Figure 1 and Figure 2 Support legs 120 are fixedly installed at the four corners of the bottom of the outer cylinder 100. A viewing window 110 is provided on the inner wall of the front end of the outer cylinder 100. A heating wire is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the top of the germination chamber 130. The heating wire is spiral in shape, and a heat-conducting plate 150 is fixedly installed on the top of the heating wire.

[0034] The specific application scenario of this embodiment is as follows: the support legs 120 at the bottom of the outer cylinder 100 provide support to ensure that the device is placed stably. The viewing window 110 on the inner wall of the front end facilitates observation of the germination status of the seeds in the germination chamber 130 and the remaining water in the water tank 140. The spiral heating wire on the inner wall of the top of the germination chamber 130 generates heat after being energized. The spiral design increases the heating area and can heat the space inside the germination chamber more evenly. The heat is further diffused through the heat conduction plate 150 on the top, making the heat distribution more uniform and avoiding local temperatures that are too high or too low. This creates a suitable temperature environment for seed germination and ensures that the seeds germinate smoothly under stable temperature conditions.

[0035] Example 3: As shown in Figure 3- Figure 5A servo motor 200 is fixedly installed on the bottom outer wall of the outer cylinder 100. The output shaft of the servo motor 200 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the outer cylinder 100 and the germination chamber 130 via bearings. A hexagonal groove is provided on the top of the output shaft of the servo motor 200. A hexagonal insert rod 210 is fixedly installed on the top of the output shaft of the servo motor 200. The hexagonal insert rod 210 is inserted and connected to the stirring shaft 220. A stirring blade 230 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the stirring shaft 220. The bottom stirring blade 230 is hooked to the bottom inner wall of the germination chamber 130. A sealing cover 300 is inserted and installed on the top of the outer cylinder 100 and the germination chamber 130. A top cover 310 is inserted and installed on the top of the sealing cover 300. A plug sleeve 340 is fixedly installed on the top of the top cover 310. The top of the stirring shaft 220 is rotatably connected to the plug sleeve 340. A discharge pipe 240 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the germination chamber 130. A valve 241 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the discharge pipe 240.

[0036] The specific application scenario of this embodiment is as follows: The servo motor 200 on the bottom outer wall of the outer cylinder 100 serves as the power source. The output shaft of the servo motor 200 is rotatably connected to the outer cylinder 100 and the inner wall of the germination chamber 130 through bearings to ensure the stability and smoothness of rotation. The hexagonal groove at the top of the output shaft cooperates with the hexagonal insert 210 to transmit the power of the servo motor to the stirring shaft 220, which drives the stirring blade 230 to rotate, continuously stirring the seeds in the germination chamber 130, promoting full contact between the seeds and water and oxygen, and accelerating the seed germination process. The plug-in installation method of the sealing cover 300 and the top cover 310 ensures the sealing of the top of the water tank 140. The plug-in sleeve 340 at the top of the top cover 310 cooperates with the top of the stirring shaft 220, which, while ensuring the rotation of the stirring shaft, also plays a certain limiting role. The discharge pipe 240 and valve 241 at the bottom of the germination chamber 130 can be opened after the seeds have germinated to discharge the germinated seeds through the discharge pipe for convenient subsequent collection and processing.

[0037] Example 4: Figure 1 and Figure 6 A handle 330 is fixedly installed on the top outer wall of the top cover 310. Ventilation holes 320 are evenly opened on the top of the top cover 310. Water is contained in the water tank 140. The bottom end of the sponge water guide strip 132 extends into the water in the water tank 140. The top end of the sponge water guide strip 132 is inserted into the through hole 131.

[0038] The specific application scenario of this embodiment is as follows: the handle 330 on the top of the top cover 310 facilitates opening and closing the top cover; the evenly spaced ventilation holes 320 ensure air circulation in the germination chamber 130, providing sufficient oxygen for seed respiration, while expelling carbon dioxide produced by seed respiration to maintain a good gaseous environment; the water in the water tank 140 is continuously and stably delivered to the germination chamber 130 through the sponge water guide strip 132 based on capillary action and siphon principle, maintaining a constant humidity in the germination chamber, meeting the humidity requirements for seed germination, and creating an ideal environment with suitable humidity and air circulation for seed germination.

[0039] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When used by those skilled in the art, the outer cylinder 100 and the germination chamber 130 constitute the main body. The water in the water tank 140 between the two is continuously and stably transported into the germination chamber by means of the sponge water guide strip 132 in the through hole 131 on the side wall of the germination chamber, using capillary action and siphon principle to ensure humidity. The spiral heating wire on the inner wall of the top of the germination chamber 130 generates heat through electricity, which is diffused through the heat conduction plate 150 to evenly regulate the internal temperature. The servo motor 200 at the bottom of the outer cylinder drives the stirring shaft 220 and stirring blade 230 to rotate through the hexagonal insert rod 210, so that the seeds can fully contact water and oxygen, avoid accumulation, and accelerate germination. The sealing cover 300 and the top cover 310 seal the germination chamber to prevent water evaporation and impurities from entering. The vent hole 320 on the top cover 310 ensures air circulation and maintains a good gas environment. After germination is completed, the valve 241 of the discharge pipe 240 at the bottom of the germination chamber is opened to discharge the seeds. All parts cooperate with each other to achieve an efficient and stable seed germination process.

[0040] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will understand 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 claims and their equivalents.
