Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of seedling trays, and more specifically, to a rotatable, dimming seedling tray. Background Technology

[0002] This rotatable, light-adjustable sweet orange seedling tray is specifically designed for the seedling cultivation and propagation of sweet oranges and other citrus plants. It integrates rotation and light-adjustment functions to provide optimal growing conditions and ensure the healthy growth of sweet orange seedlings. Its design takes into account the plant's light requirements and space utilization, achieving efficient seedling cultivation through light-adjustment and rotation functions.

[0003] A search revealed that Chinese Patent Publication No. CN 216018033 U discloses "A Seedling Tray," comprising a base with a receiving groove, multiple first mounting slots, and multiple second mounting slots. Multiple first mounting plates are also present in the base, with first clamping plates fixedly connected to both ends of each first mounting plate and inserted into the first mounting slots. Multiple second mounting plates are also present in the base, with second clamping plates fixedly connected to both ends of each second mounting plate and inserted into the second mounting slots. In this invention, the tray can be disassembled into the base, multiple first mounting plates, and multiple second mounting plates. If the base is damaged, it can be replaced; if the first or second mounting plates are damaged, they can be replaced, eliminating the need to replace the entire tray. This reduces seedling costs and facilitates the use of the device. However, the following drawbacks still exist:

[0004] (1) The above application uses a chassis with a receiving groove, which makes it impossible to rotate the seedling tray, resulting in the inability to ensure that each seedling can receive light when irradiating the seedlings.

[0005] (2) The above application cannot recycle the excess water that flows out during watering, resulting in the inability to reuse the excess water and causing a waste of water resources.

[0006] Therefore, we have made improvements to this by proposing a rotatable, light-adjustable seedling tray. Utility Model Content

The bottom of the seedling tray 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating rod 46.

[0036] like Figure 2As shown, a water tank 47 is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1, and a water supply pipe 48 is fixedly connected through the top of the water tank 47. A nozzle 49 is fixedly connected to one end of the water supply pipe 48. A water pump 410 is installed on the top of the water tank 47. A water outlet 411 is opened at the bottom of the seedling tray 5. The function of the nozzle 49 is to water the seedlings in the seedling tray 5, and the function of the water outlet 411 is to allow excess water to flow out.

[0037] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the circumferential surface of sprocket 43 engages with the inner wall of chain 44, and the inner wall of chain 44 engages with the circumferential surface of sprocket 45. The purpose of the engagement between the circumferential surface of sprocket 43 and the inner wall of chain 44 is to drive chain 44 to rotate when sprocket 43 rotates, and the purpose of the engagement between the inner wall of chain 44 and the circumferential surface of sprocket 45 is to drive sprocket 45 to rotate when chain 44 rotates.

[0038] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, a recycling device 6 is provided on the top of the base plate 1. The recycling device 6 includes a channel 61, which is opened on the top of the base plate 1. A water outlet 62 is opened on the front side of the channel 61. A recycling box 63 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the base plate 1. A filter screen 64 is fixedly connected to the side of the water outlet 62. A storage trough 65 is opened at the bottom of the channel 61. The function of the filter screen 64 is to filter the water flowing out of the seedling tray 5.

[0039] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, a collection box 66 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the storage tank 65, a filter plate 67 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the collection box 66, and a water inlet pipe 68 is fixedly passed through the side of the collection box 66. One end of the water inlet pipe 68 is fixedly passed through the back side of the recycling box 63. The function of the collection box 66 is to collect impurities that flow out with excess water.

[0040] like Figure 3 As shown, a connecting rod 69 is fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the rotating rod 46, and a push plate 610 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting rod 69. The function of the push plate 610 is to push the impurities in the through groove 61 into the collection box 66.

[0041] like Figure 3 As shown, the top of the recycling bin 63 is located above the outlet 62, and the bottom of the push plate 610 is located above the collection bin 66. The purpose of the top of the recycling bin 63 being located above the outlet 62 is to allow water to enter the recycling bin 63 through the outlet 62.

[0042] Specifically, when using this rotatable, dimmable seedling tray: First, the seedlings need to be planted in the seedling tray 5. Then, the intensity of the dimmable growth lamp 3 is adjusted to illuminate the seedlings. By starting the motor 41, when the output shaft of the motor 41 rotates, it drives the rotating shaft 42 to rotate. When the rotating shaft 42 rotates, it drives the first sprocket 43 to rotate. When the first sprocket 43 rotates, it drives the chain 44 to rotate. When the chain 44 rotates, it drives the second sprocket 45 to rotate. Thus, when the second sprocket 45 rotates, it drives the rotating rod 46 to rotate on the base plate 1. In turn, when the rotating rod 46 rotates, it drives the seedling tray 5 to rotate, ensuring that each seedling receives light. This helps the seedlings receive light evenly and avoids uneven growth in some areas due to fixed positions. When it is necessary to water the seedlings, the water pump 410 can be started, so that the water in the water tank 47 enters the nozzle 49 through the water pipe 48 and the nozzle 49 waters the seedlings.

[0043] When watering the seedlings, excess water flows into the channel 61 through the drain 411 below the seedling tray 5. After entering the channel 61, the water is filtered through the filter screen 64 to remove impurities flowing out with the water. After filtration, the water flows into the recycling box 63 through the outlet 62, thus reusing the excess water and saving water resources. When the rotating rod 46 rotates, it drives the connecting rod 69 to rotate. When the connecting rod 69 rotates, it drives the push plate 610 to rotate, so that the push plate 610 can push the filtered impurities into the collection box 66. After the impurities enter the collection box 66, they will be on the filter plate 67, and the water in the impurities will drip into the bottom of the collection box 66. The water can enter the recycling box 63 through the water inlet pipe 68.

[0044] All technical features in this embodiment can be freely combined according to actual needs.

[0045] The above embodiments are preferred implementations of this utility model. In addition, this utility model can also be implemented in other ways. Any obvious substitutions without departing from the concept of this technical solution are within the protection scope of this utility model.
