Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of seedling cultivation bed technology, and in particular to a seedling substrate cultivation bed with adjustable structure. Background Technology

[0002] Seedling substrate cultivation beds are specialized facilities used in modern agriculture for seedling cultivation. Their core function is to replace traditional soil with artificially prepared substrate materials (such as peat, coconut coir, perlite, vermiculite, etc.) to provide seedlings with the physical support and nutrient environment necessary for growth. These facilities typically consist of a substrate layer, drainage system, irrigation device, and protective structure, aiming to promote rapid and uniform seedling growth through precise control of moisture, nutrients, and aeration. Currently, seedling cultivation beds are usually installed on multi-tiered mounting racks. However, in some greenhouses or simple sheds where seedling growth is judged based on human experience, the height of the cultivation beds placed on the top rack makes observation difficult, affecting usability. Utility Model Content

[0003] This invention provides a seedling substrate culture bed with an adjustable structure, which solves the problems in the background technology.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] An adjustable seedling substrate culture bed includes a support frame, a mounting plate connected to the surface of the support frame, a rotating rod rotatably connected to the surface of the mounting plate, and a motor for driving the rotating rod mounted on one side of the mounting plate.

[0006] A sprocket is connected to the surface of the rotating rod, and a chain is connected to the surface of the sprocket. A horizontal plate is provided on one side of the chain, and a rotating rod is rotatably connected to the surface of the horizontal plate. A sleeve is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating rod, and a support rod is provided inside the sleeve. The culture bed body is installed at the bottom end of the support rod.

[0007] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0008] A counterweight is installed at the center of the bottom end or on both sides of the bottom end of the culture bed body.

[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0010] Mounting brackets are installed on both sides of the support frame.

[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0012] The inner wall of the sleeve is provided with sliding grooves on both sides, and a slider connected to the support rod is slidably connected inside the sliding groove.

[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0014] The support rod has grooves on both sides, and springs are connected inside the grooves. A fixing rod with a "T"-shaped cross-section is connected to one side of the spring. Fixing holes with the same inner diameter as the fixing rod are equidistantly opened on both sides of the sleeve.

[0015] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0016] The opening of the groove is provided with a stop block for blocking the fixing rod.

[0017] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0018] The length of the sleeve and the support rod exposed outside the sleeve is less than the length of the horizontal plate.

[0019] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0020] In this invention, the sprocket drives the chain, horizontal plate, rotating rod, sleeve, support rod and culture bed body to move in a cycle through the motor, so as to move the culture bed body to a specified height, so that the staff can observe the seedlings inside the culture bed. At the same time, the distance between two adjacent culture beds can be adjusted according to the growth stage of the seedlings, so as to take into account both space utilization and growth needs.

[0026] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 An adjustable seedling substrate cultivation bed includes a support frame 1, a mounting plate 2 connected to the surface of the support frame 1, a rotating rod 3 rotatably connected to the surface of the mounting plate 2, and a motor 4 for driving the rotating rod 3 mounted on one side of the mounting plate 2; a sprocket 5 connected to the surface of the rotating rod 3, a chain 6 connected to the surface of the sprocket 5, a horizontal plate 7 provided on one side of the chain 6, a rotating rod 8 rotatably connected to the surface of the horizontal plate 7, a sleeve 9 fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating rod 8, and a support rod 10 provided inside the sleeve 9, with a support rod 10 mounted at the bottom end of the support rod 10. The cultivation bed body 11 is equipped with a motor 4, which drives the rotating rod 3 to rotate the sprocket 5. This causes the chain 6 on the surface of the sprocket 5 to move the horizontal plate 7, rotating rod 8, sleeve 9, support rod 10, and cultivation bed body 11. This allows the seedlings inside the cultivation bed body 11 to be moved to a designated position for easy observation by staff. During the movement, the cultivation bed body 11 rotates through the rotating rod 8 due to gravity, ensuring that its top always faces upwards. A brake can be installed on the motor 4 to prevent the chain 6 and other components from moving.

[0028] Furthermore, a counterweight is installed at the center of the bottom end or on both sides of the bottom end of the culture bed body 11. The counterweight can be increased according to the actual weight of the culture bed body 11 so that the top of the culture bed body 11 will always face upward due to gravity when the chain 6 moves.

[0029] Furthermore, mounting frames 12 are installed on both sides of the support frame 1. The mounting frames 12 are for installing equipment such as nozzles or lighting to facilitate the cultivation of seedlings inside the cultivation bed body 11.

[0030] Furthermore, the inner wall of the sleeve 9 is provided with sliding grooves 13 on both sides, and the sliding grooves 13 are slidably connected to the sliders 14 connected to the support rods 10. This is to facilitate the support rods 10 to adjust the distance between two adjacent culture bed bodies 11 by limiting the movement of the sliders 14 and the sliding grooves 13.

[0031] Furthermore, grooves 15 are provided on both sides of the support rod 10, and springs 16 are connected inside the grooves 15. A fixing rod 17 with a "T"-shaped cross section is connected to one side of the spring 16. Fixing holes 18 with the same inner diameter as the fixing rod 17 are provided at equal intervals on both sides of the sleeve 9. This is to facilitate the adjustment of the distance between two adjacent culture bed bodies 11, and the fixing rod 17 connected to it can be moved by the action of the spring 16 so that the fixing rod 17 can be moved into the fixing hole 18 for limiting.

[0032] Furthermore, a stop 19 is provided at the opening of the groove 15 to block the fixing rod 17. The stop 19 is to prevent the spring 16 from popping the fixing rod 17 out of the groove 15 and affecting its subsequent use.

[0033] Furthermore, the length of the sleeve 9 and the support rod 10 exposed outside the sleeve 9 is less than the length of the horizontal plate 7. At the same time, the length of the sleeve 9 and the support rod 10 exposed outside the sleeve 9 is less than the length between the bottom end of the chain 6 and the support frame 1. This is to avoid the sleeve 9 plus the support rod 10 being too long to be exposed outside, which would prevent the culture bed body 11 from moving when it is at the top or bottom.

[0034] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
