Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gas control technology, specifically to a gas control device for bean sprout growth. Background Technology

[0002] Bean sprouts, as an important vegetable, are increasingly favored by consumers due to their delicious taste and excellent nutritional and health benefits. From seed to germination and harvest, bean sprouts only take a few days, and under normal circumstances, they do not require fertilizers or pesticides, making them a recognized safe and clean vegetable. However, bean sprouts grown with just water are thin and have a coarser texture, failing to meet consumers' sensory and quality requirements. Therefore, over a long period, people have gradually explored a series of methods to assist bean sprout production. One of these methods is influencing the cultivation environment. The cultivation environment significantly affects the growth of bean sprouts; temperature, moisture, and air conditions at each stage all affect the quality of the finished product. Among these, the gas environment has the greatest impact on bean sprouts.

[0003] Although an existing bean sprout growth gas control device has the characteristics of good gas control and promoting bean sprout growth.

[0004] However, this type of bean sprout growth gas control device has the following disadvantages: during the use of the bean sprout gas control device, most of them use valves to exhaust the gas inside the bean sprout device, resulting in poor performance of the bean sprout growth gas control device, and it is not easy for personnel to clean the gas control device one by one. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a bean sprout growth gas control device that effectively solves the problems of poor performance and difficulty in cleaning the gas control device, which is often achieved by using valves to vent gas from the bean sprout device during its use.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] This utility model provides a gas control device for bean sprout growth, including a connector tube. One end of the connector tube is connected to a connecting tube, and one end of the connecting tube is fixedly connected to a connecting ring. A circular block is fixedly connected to the center of the top surface of the connecting ring. An anti-blocking component is provided at the bottom of the circular block. A microcontroller is provided on one side of the connecting ring. A venting tube is threaded inside the connecting ring. The outer surface of the venting tube has venting holes arranged in a ring array at equal intervals.

[0008] Preferably, the anti-blocking component includes a circular block with an irregularly shaped electric telescopic rod fixedly connected to the center of its bottom surface, and a circular blocking plate fixedly connected to one end of the irregularly shaped electric telescopic rod.

[0009] Preferably, the diameter of the circular plug is the same as the inner diameter of the vent pipe, and the outer surface of the irregularly shaped electric telescopic rod is coated with an anti-oxidation coating.

[0010] Preferably, the surface of the vent pipe is threaded with a cover, and the outer surface of the cover is provided with anti-slip stripes.

[0011] Preferably, a fixing ring is provided on one side of the surface of the connecting pipe, and a gas detector is provided on one side of the surface of the fixing ring.

[0012] Preferably, the gas detector has a display embedded in its front side, and the outer surface of the connector has a through hole.

[0013] Preferably, a circular pad is provided on the front of the cover, and a waterproof coating is applied to the outer surface of the circular pad.

[0014] The technical solution provided by this utility model has the following advantages compared with the known prior art:

[0015] 1. Through the coordinated use of the anti-blocking components, vent pipe, and vent hole, when personnel need to release the air inside the bean sprout growing device, the gas detector can detect the gas inside the connecting pipe. If too much gas is detected, the microcontroller can turn on the power of the irregularly shaped electric telescopic rod, causing the irregularly shaped electric telescopic rod to push the circular blocking plate towards one end of the vent pipe. Subsequently, the vent hole is opened, thus facilitating the release of gas inside the bean sprout growing device.

[0016] 2. By setting up the insertion pipe, connecting pipe and vent pipe, when personnel need to disassemble and clean the connecting pipe, they can unscrew the insertion pipe and connecting pipe to remove their threads, and then unscrew the vent pipe, making it convenient for personnel to disassemble and clean the insertion pipe and connecting pipe one by one.

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0024] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments.

[0025] Example: Refer to Figures 1 to 4 A bean sprout growth gas control device includes a connector 1, one end of which is connected to a connecting pipe 2. One end of the connecting pipe 1 is fixedly connected to a connecting ring 3. A circular block 4 is fixedly connected to the middle of the top surface of the connecting ring 3. An anti-blocking component 5 is provided at the bottom of the circular block 4. The anti-blocking component 5 includes an irregularly shaped electric telescopic rod 51 fixedly connected to the center of the bottom surface of the circular block 4. One end of the irregularly shaped electric telescopic rod 51 is fixedly connected to a circular blocking plate 52. The diameter of the circular blocking plate 52 is the same as the inner diameter of the vent pipe 7. The outer surface of the irregularly shaped electric telescopic rod 51 is coated with an anti-oxidation coating.

[0026] When personnel control the gas inside the bean sprout growth device, they can place the connector 1 inside the growth device, then turn on the gas detector 10, causing its display to detect the air inside the connector 1. The gas detector 10 then transmits the gas data to the connecting pipe 2, and the microcontroller 6 transmits power to the irregularly shaped electric telescopic rod 51. The irregularly shaped electric telescopic rod 51 then drives the circular plug 52 to open the vent pipe 7, allowing the gas to leak out through the vent hole 8. This facilitates automatic gas control. When personnel need to clean the inside of the connector 1 and connecting pipe 2, they can unscrew the connector 1 and connecting pipe 2 to disassemble them, and then disassemble the vent pipe 7 for easy cleaning.

[0027] Reference Figures 1 to 4 A microcontroller 6 is provided on one side of the connecting ring 3, and a vent pipe 7 is threaded inside the connecting ring 3. The outer surface of the vent pipe 7 is provided with vent holes 8 in a ring array at equal intervals.

[0028] With the microcontroller 6 and the vent pipe 7 in place, when personnel need to ventilate the gas inside the bean sprout growth device, they can use the microcontroller 6 to ventilate the vent pipe 7.

[0029] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The surface of the vent pipe 7 is threaded with a cover 11, and the outer surface of the cover 11 is provided with anti-slip stripes.

[0030] The cover 11 facilitates the opening of the vent pipe 7 by personnel.

[0031] Reference Figures 1 to 4 A fixing ring 9 is provided on one side of the surface of the connecting pipe 2, and a gas detector 10 is provided on one side of the surface of the fixing ring 9. A display is embedded on the front of the gas detector 10. A through hole is opened on the outer surface of the plug pipe 1. A circular pad is provided on the front of the cover 11, and a waterproof coating is applied to the outer surface of the circular pad.

[0032] By setting up the gas detector 10, when personnel need to detect the gas inside the connecting pipe 2, they can turn on the power of the gas detector 10 so that the gas detector 10 can detect the gas inside the connecting pipe 2, thus facilitating the detection of gas by personnel.

[0033] Working principle: When personnel control the gas inside the bean sprout growth device, they can place the connector 1 inside the growth device and then turn on the power to the gas detector 10. The display will then detect the air inside the connector 1, and the gas detector 10 will transmit the gas data to the connecting tube 2. Subsequently, the microcontroller 6 will transmit power to the irregularly shaped electric telescopic rod 51. Then, the irregularly shaped electric telescopic rod 51 will drive the circular plug 52 to open the vent pipe 7, and the vent hole 8 will allow the gas to leak out, thus facilitating automatic control of the gas. When personnel need to clean the inside of the connector 1 and the connecting tube 2, they can unscrew the connector 1 and the connecting tube 2 to disassemble them, and then disassemble the vent pipe 7 to facilitate cleaning one by one.

[0034] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions will not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the protection scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
