[0002] Soilless cultivation technology, as an important innovation in the field of modern agriculture, uses substrate materials that do not contain natural soil to cultivate plants, effectively solving problems such as soil pollution, continuous cropping obstacles, and water waste that exist in traditional soil cultivation.
[0003] As a medium for plant growth, the homogeneity of the composition and the sterility of the soilless culture substrate are crucial for the healthy growth of plants. Therefore, in the preparation process of soilless culture substrates, achieving efficient mixing and effective sterilization has become a key step in improving substrate quality and ensuring safe plant growth.
[0004] Currently, various devices exist on the market for mixing hydroponic substrates, most of which use mechanical stirring to achieve this. However, in practical applications, these devices often have some shortcomings. For example, because hydroponic substrates are easily contaminated by microorganisms during preparation, effectively sterilizing the substrate while mixing is a significant challenge for current hydroponic substrate mixing equipment. Existing mixing equipment often lacks effective sterilization capabilities or achieves unsatisfactory sterilization results, leading to the presence of harmful microorganisms in the substrate and increasing the risk of plant diseases.

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.
[0036] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown:
[0037] Example 1: This utility model provides a mixing device for soilless cultivation substrate, including a mixing cylinder mechanism 1, a stirring mechanism 2, and a lifting mechanism 3;
[0038] The mixing cylinder mechanism 1 includes a mixing cylinder assembly 11, and an electric heating tube 12 is provided in the inner wall interlayer of the mixing cylinder assembly 11;
[0039] The stirring mechanism 2 includes an upper cover plate assembly 21 mounted on the mixing cylinder assembly 11, and a stirring assembly 22 mounted on the upper cover plate assembly 21;
[0040] The lifting mechanism 3 includes a support component 31, on which a lifting component 32 is mounted;
[0041] The mixing drum assembly 11 includes a mixing drum body 111, an inner wall of which is provided with a sandwich 112, a lifting frame 113 is slidably embedded at the bottom of the mixing drum body 111, a transfer hole 114 is provided at the lower end of one side of the mixing drum body 111, an operation hole 115 is provided at the lower end of the other side of the mixing drum body 111, and several support legs 116 are fixedly installed at the lower end of the mixing drum body 111.
[0042] The electric heating element 12 is fixedly installed in the interlayer 112, and the support leg 116 is installed on the support assembly 31 after being passed through by bolts.
[0043] After the hydroponic substrate is mixed and sterilized, the lifting component 32 drives the lifting frame 113 to move downward, so that the hydroponic substrate follows and descends. A tool can be inserted through the operation hole 115 to remove the hydroponic substrate from the transfer hole 114.
[0044] Specifically, the lifting frame component 113 includes a guide rod 1131, with an upper support plate 1132 fixedly connected to the upper end of the guide rod 1131 and a base plate 1133 fixedly connected to the lower end of the guide rod 1131.
[0045] The upper support plate 1132 is slidably embedded in the mixing drum body 111 and fits against the inner wall; the guide rod 1131 is slidably embedded in the bottom wall of the mixing drum body 111.
[0046] When the upper support plate 1132 descends to its lowest point, the upper support plate 1132 is flush with the transfer hole 114 and the operation hole 115, which facilitates the removal of the soilless culture medium.
[0047] Specifically, a temperature controller is also connected to the electric heating tube 12. The temperature controller is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the mixing drum body 111 and is used to monitor and adjust the heating temperature of the electric heating tube 12 in real time so that the soilless cultivation substrate in the mixing drum assembly 11 reaches the preset mixing temperature range.
[0048] As can be seen from the above, during operation, the hydroponic substrate is fed into the mixing cylinder assembly 11 through the feeding port 212, and the motor 222 drives the stirring rod 223 to rotate, so as to stir and mix the hydroponic substrate in the mixing cylinder assembly 11.
[0049] At the same time, the electric heating tube 12 in the inner wall interlayer 112 is controlled to operate, and the substrate is heated and sterilized.
[0050] After the mixing and sterilization are completed, the control cylinder 321 drives the bottom plate 1133 to move downward, which in turn drives the guide rod 1131 and the upper support plate 1132 to slide downward along the mixing cylinder body 111, so that the soilless cultivation substrate descends with the upper support plate 1132.
[0051] When the upper support plate 1132 is lowered to the bottom and is flush with the transfer hole 114 and the operation hole 115, the soilless cultivation substrate can be removed from the mixing cylinder assembly 11 by inserting a tool through the operation hole 115.
[0052] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown:
[0053] Example 2: This example is basically the same as the previous example, except that the support component 31 includes a workbench 311, and a second support leg 312 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the workbench 311.
[0054] The lifting assembly 32 includes a cylinder 321, and a fixing plate 322 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the cylinder 321. The fixing plate 322 is fixedly connected to the base plate 1133.
[0055] Specifically, the upper cover assembly 21 includes an upper cover body 211, and the upper end of the upper cover body 211 is equipped with a dispensing port 212 and an exhaust port 213.
[0056] The upper cover plate body 211 is fixedly installed on the mixing cylinder body 111, the inlet 212 is used to put in different soilless cultivation substrates, and the exhaust port 213 is used to discharge the waste gas generated by heating.
[0057] Specifically, the stirring assembly 22 includes a support cylinder 221 and a motor 222, with a stirring rod 223 fixedly connected to one end of the motor 222 via a coupling;
[0058] The stirring rod 223 is fixedly installed inside the mixing cylinder body 111 via a bearing, the support cylinder 221 is fixedly installed on the upper cover plate body 211, and the motor 222 is fixedly installed on the support cylinder 221.
[0059] As can be seen from the above, when using it, the soilless cultivation substrate is put into the mixing cylinder assembly 11 through the inlet 212;
[0060] Then, the motor 222 is started and drives the stirring rod 223 to rotate inside the mixing drum body 111 through the coupling to stir and mix the matrix. The stirring rod 223 is securely installed through bearings to ensure a smooth stirring process.
[0061] At the same time, the electric heating tube 12 in the inner wall interlayer 112 of the mixing cylinder assembly 11 works to heat and sterilize the substrate, and the generated exhaust gas is discharged through the exhaust port 213 on the upper cover plate body 211.
[0062] After the mixing and sterilization are completed, the cylinder 321 of the lifting component 32 is activated, pushing the fixed plate 322 and the bottom plate 1133 connected thereto to move downward, driving the guide rod 1131 and the upper support plate 1132 to slide downward along the bottom wall of the mixing cylinder body 111, so that the soilless cultivation substrate descends with the upper support plate 1132.
[0063] When the upper support plate 1132 is lowered to be flush with the transfer hole 114 and the operation hole 115, the soilless cultivation substrate can be removed from the mixing cylinder assembly 11 by inserting a tool through the operation hole 115.
[0064] Throughout the process, the mixing cylinder assembly 11 is securely mounted on the workbench 311 of the support assembly 31 via support leg 116. The workbench 311 is supported by support leg 2 312, ensuring the overall stable operation of the device.
