A bean sprout soaking device

Abstract

This utility model relates to the field of bean sprout cultivation technology, specifically a bean sprout soaking device, including a box body. A circular tube is rotatably connected to the bottom of the box body via a bearing, and a screw is threadedly connected to the inside of the circular tube. When nutrient solution needs to be added to the box body, the motor is started, driving the circular tube to rotate, which in turn drives the screw inside the tube to rotate. The screw lifts the culture dish, and a connecting block causes a vertical rod to slide out from within the vertical block. Simultaneously, nutrient solution is added through the feeding hopper. As the circular tube rotates, it is threadedly connected to the circular block via a groove, causing the circular block to move upwards. The circular block then drives the circular rod and paddle upwards. Under the combined action of water resistance and the paddle, the paddle rotates, thus thoroughly mixing the nutrient solution with the water. This avoids the high labor intensity of manual operation. Furthermore, the culture dish is raised a certain distance before mixing to prevent damage to the bean sprout roots from the paddle rotation.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bean sprout cultivation technology, specifically a bean sprout seed soaking device. Background Technology

[0002] Bean sprouts, also known as sprouted vegetables, are edible sprouts cultivated from the seeds of various grains, beans, and trees. They are also called "living vegetables." Bean sprouts are a common vegetable in our lives, and they offer many health benefits, making them a popular choice. Before sprouting beans, the bean seeds need to be soaked.

[0003] To improve germination rates, nutrient solution is added periodically during the soaking process of soybean seeds. However, traditional soaking devices are not convenient for fully mixing the nutrient solution with water, requiring manual lifting of the culture dish and stirring of the mixture, which is time-consuming and laborious. Therefore, we propose a soybean sprout soaking device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a bean sprout soaking device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a bean sprout soaking device, comprising a box body, a circular tube rotatably connected to the bottom of the box body via a bearing, a screw threadedly connected to the inside of the circular tube, a culture dish rotatably connected to the top of the screw, a threaded groove on the outside of the circular tube, a circular block threadedly connected to the circular tube via the threaded groove, multiple circular rods rotatably connected to the outside of the circular block via a bearing, multiple paddles fixedly connected to the outside of the circular rods, two limiting rods fixedly connected to the bottom of the box body, the circular block slidably sleeved on the outside of the limiting rods, a baffle fixedly connected to the top of the limiting rods, a spring fixedly connected between the baffle and the circular block, and the spring movably sleeved on the outside of the limiting rods.

[0006] More preferably, the two sides of the culture dish are fixedly connected to limit blocks, and the two sides of the box are provided with limit grooves, and the limit blocks are slidably connected to the limit grooves.

[0007] More preferably, a connecting block is fixedly connected to the outer side of the limiting block, and vertical blocks are fixedly connected to both sides of the box.

[0008] More preferably, a vertical rod is slidably connected inside the vertical block, and the top end of the vertical rod is fixedly connected to the connecting block.

[0009] More preferably, the top of the petri dish has several through holes, the diameter of which is smaller than the diameter of the bean seed.

[0010] More preferably, the front and rear sides of the box are respectively provided with a filling hopper and a drain outlet, and the bottom of the box is fixedly connected to a base.

[0011] More preferably, a motor is fixedly connected to the bottom of the housing, and the output shaft end of the motor is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the round tube.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: When using this utility model, bean sprout seeds are evenly placed in the through holes at the top of the culture dish. When nutrient solution needs to be added to the box, the motor is started. The motor drives the round tube to rotate, which in turn drives the screw inside the round tube to rotate. The screw drives the culture dish to rise, and the connecting block drives the vertical rod to slide out from the vertical block. At the same time, nutrient solution is added through the feeding hopper. While the round tube is rotating, it is threadedly connected to the round block through the threaded groove, which drives the round block to move upward. The round block drives the round rod and the paddle to move upward. Under the action of water resistance and the paddle, the paddle rotates, thereby fully mixing the nutrient solution and water. This can avoid the high labor intensity of manual operation. At the same time, the culture dish is raised a certain distance before mixing to avoid damage to the bean sprout roots by the rotation of the paddle. Attached Figure Description

[0018] 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. Example

[0019] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a bean sprout soaking device, including a box body 1. A circular tube 2 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the box body 1 via a bearing. A screw 3 is threadedly connected to the inside of the circular tube 2. A culture dish 4 is rotatably connected to the top of the screw 3. A threaded groove 5 is opened on the outer side of the circular tube 2. A circular block 6 is threadedly connected to the circular tube 2 via the threaded groove 5. Multiple circular rods 7 are rotatably connected to the outer side of the circular block 6 via a bearing. Multiple paddles 8 are fixedly connected to the outer side of the circular rods 7. Two limiting rods 9 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the box body 1. The circular block 6 is slidably sleeved on the outer side of the limiting rods 9. A baffle 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the limiting rods 9. A spring 11 is fixedly connected between the baffle 10 and the circular block 6. The spring 11 is movably sleeved on the outer side of the limiting rods 9. In use, bean sprout seeds are evenly placed... The nutrient solution is placed in the through hole 17 at the top of the petri dish 4. When it is necessary to add nutrient solution to the box 1, the motor 21 is started. The motor 21 drives the round tube 2 to rotate, which in turn drives the screw 3 inside the round tube 2 to rotate. The screw 3 drives the petri dish 4 to rise. The connecting block 13 drives the vertical rod 15 to slide out from the vertical block 14. At the same time, the nutrient solution is added through the feeding hopper 18. While the round tube 2 is rotating, it is threadedly connected to the round block 6 through the threaded groove 5, which drives the round block 6 to move upward. The round block 6 drives the round rod 7 and the paddle 8 to move upward. Under the action of water resistance and the paddle 8, the paddle 8 rotates, which fully mixes the nutrient solution with the water. This can avoid the high labor intensity of manual operation. At the same time, the petri dish 4 is raised a distance before mixing to prevent the rotation of the paddle 8 from damaging the root system of the bean sprouts.

[0020] In this embodiment, specifically: limiting blocks 12 are fixedly connected to both sides of the petri dish 4, and limiting grooves 16 are opened on both sides of the box body 1, with the limiting blocks 12 and the limiting grooves 16 slidably connected.

[0021] In this embodiment, specifically: a connecting block 13 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the limiting block 12, and vertical blocks 14 are fixedly connected to both sides of the box body 1.

[0022] In this embodiment, specifically: a vertical rod 15 is slidably connected inside the vertical block 14, and the top end of the vertical rod 15 is fixedly connected to the connecting block 13;

[0023] In this embodiment, specifically: the top of the petri dish 4 is provided with several through holes 17, the diameter of which is smaller than the diameter of the bean seed.

[0024] In this embodiment, specifically: a filling hopper 18 and a drain outlet 19 are respectively provided on the front and rear sides of the box body 1, and a base 20 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the box body 1.

[0025] In this embodiment, specifically: a motor 21 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the housing 1, and the output shaft end of the motor 21 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the round tube 2.

[0026] In operation, this invention works as follows: When in use, bean sprout seeds are evenly placed in the through-hole 17 at the top of the culture dish 4. When nutrient solution needs to be added to the box 1, the motor 21 is started. The motor 21 drives the round tube 2 to rotate, which in turn drives the screw 3 inside the round tube 2 to rotate. The screw 3 lifts the culture dish 4, and the connecting block 13 drives the vertical rod 15 to slide out from the vertical block 14. Simultaneously, nutrient solution is added through the feeding hopper 18. As the round tube 2 rotates, it is threadedly connected to the round block 6 through the threaded groove 5, which moves the round block 6 upward. The round block 6 then moves the round rod 7 and the paddle 8 upward. Under the combined action of water resistance and the paddle 8, the paddle 8 rotates, thus fully mixing the nutrient solution with the water. This avoids the high labor intensity of manual operation. Furthermore, the culture dish 4 is raised a certain distance before mixing to prevent the paddle 8 from damaging the bean sprout roots.
