Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of edible fungi technology, and in particular to a humidification device for edible fungi cultivation. Background Technology
[0002] Edible mushroom cultivation is an important part of modern agriculture, and its growth environment is extremely sensitive to parameters such as temperature, humidity, oxygen, and carbon dioxide concentration. Among these, humidity and air circulation are key factors affecting mycelial development, fruiting body formation, and quality.
[0003] Existing humidification devices for edible fungi include fixed-nozzle humidifiers, where the nozzles are fixed, limiting the humidification area and causing moisture to accumulate in localized areas, failing to achieve large-area uniform humidification; and mobile humidifiers, which use nozzles that move horizontally back and forth on a pole for humidification, but for multi-layered mushroom racks, the bottom racks do not receive sufficient moisture, resulting in uneven humidification. Furthermore, current edible fungi cultivation relies solely on natural ventilation via exhaust fans on both sides of the greenhouse. In the high-temperature and high-humidity environment of large edible fungi cultivation greenhouses, poor air circulation at the bottom of the racks hinders respiration, slowing or even halting growth of the fungi. Excessive carbon dioxide concentration can also lead to an accumulation of carbon dioxide within the greenhouse, inhibiting fungi growth, particularly negatively impacting the formation and development of fruiting bodies.
[0004] Therefore, this application provides a humidification device for edible fungi cultivation to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a humidification device for edible fungi cultivation, which solves the problems of poor humidification uniformity and poor air circulation in existing humidification devices.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a humidification device for edible fungi cultivation, including a greenhouse. Several mushroom racks are arranged longitudinally and parallel inside the greenhouse. Two crossbeams are symmetrically arranged above the two ends of the mushroom racks at the top of the greenhouse. Several long rods are vertically arranged between the two crossbeams. Water channels and air channels are arranged parallel inside the long rods. The water channels and air channels are connected to several water nozzles and air nozzles on the side walls of the long rods, respectively. The water nozzles and air nozzles are arranged at intervals on the side walls of the long rods. The water nozzles and air nozzles are used to humidify the greenhouse and replenish fresh air, respectively.
[0007] A further improvement of this utility model is that: parallel water channels and air channels are arranged inside the long rod along its length; several sets of first water outlet holes and first air outlet holes are arranged on one side of the long rod; and several sets of second air outlet holes and second water outlet holes are arranged on the other side of the long rod.
[0008] A further improvement of this utility model is that: the first water outlet is perpendicular to the water channel, the second water outlet is connected to one end of the semi-circular annular channel A, and the other end of the semi-circular annular channel B is connected to the water channel.
[0009] A further improvement of the present invention is that: the first air outlet is connected to one end of the semi-circular annular channel B, the other end of the semi-circular annular channel A is connected to the air channel, and the second air outlet is perpendicular to the air channel.
[0010] A further improvement of this utility model is that: water nozzles are provided for the first water outlet and the second water outlet, and air nozzles are provided for the first air outlet and the second air outlet.
[0011] A further improvement of this utility model is that: one end of the long rod extends outward through the fixing ring to connect the water inlet pipe and the air inlet pipe, and the water inlet pipe and the air inlet pipe are respectively connected to the water supply system and the air supply system on both sides of the greenhouse.
[0012] A further improvement of this utility model is that: the two ends of the long rod are adapted to be installed in the fixing ring, the fixing ring is set at the bottom end of the telescopic rod of the reversing electric cylinder, and the top surface of the reversing electric cylinder is vertically fixed to the bottom surface of the crossbeam.

[0014] A further improvement of this utility model is that the distance between adjacent long rods is greater than the width of the mushroom rack, and a mushroom rack is set between every two long rods.
[0015] A further improvement to the technical solution of this utility model is that natural ventilation openings are provided at both the front and rear ends of the greenhouse.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0017] 1. This utility model provides a humidification device for edible fungi cultivation. Several water and air nozzles are spaced apart on both sides of the long rod, which sprays water and air to humidify and introduce fresh air at the same time. The spaced arrangement of the water and air nozzles avoids direct airflow from multiple air nozzles, which can cause mycelium to become skewed. At the same time, the long rod can move up and down vertically under the action of the reversing electric cylinder, which can meet the humidification needs of the bottom layer in multi-layer mushroom racks. In addition, the airflow generated by the air nozzles can break the traditional static humidification mode, avoid excessive local humidity or ventilation dead spots, and reduce the risk of mold growth.

[0032] The present invention will be further explained below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0033] like Figures 1-7As shown, this embodiment provides a humidification device for edible mushroom cultivation, including a greenhouse 1. Several mushroom racks 2 are arranged longitudinally and parallel within the greenhouse 1. Two crossbeams 3 are symmetrically arranged above the top of the greenhouse 1 at both ends of the mushroom racks 2. Several long rods 4 are vertically arranged between the two crossbeams 3. Water channels 41 and air channels 42 are arranged parallel to each other within the long rods 4. The water channels 41 and air channels 42 are connected to several water nozzles 414 and air nozzles 424 on the side walls of the long rods 4, respectively. The water nozzles 414 and air nozzles 424 are arranged at intervals on the side walls of the long rods 4. The water nozzles 414 and air nozzles 424 are used to humidify the greenhouse 1 and replenish fresh air, respectively. Specifically, two... The crossbeam 3 is used to fix the reversing electric cylinder 44. The bottom end of the telescopic rod of the reversing electric cylinder 44 is fixed to both ends of the long rod 4 by the fixing ring 43. One end of the water channel 41 and the air channel 42 of the long rod 4 are connected to the water inlet pipe 5 and the air inlet pipe 6, respectively. The water inlet pipe 5 and the air inlet pipe 6 are connected to the external water supply system 7 and the air supply system 8. Water and air enter the water channel 41 and the air channel 42 of the long rod 4 through the water inlet pipe 5 and the air inlet pipe 6, respectively, and then spray out from several water nozzles 414 and air nozzles 424 arranged at intervals on both sides of the long rod 4, so as to humidify and introduce fresh air at the same time. At the same time, the water nozzles 414 and the air nozzles 424 are arranged at intervals to avoid the mycelium from being blown directly by multiple air nozzles 424.
[0034] like Figures 4-7As shown, in this embodiment, parallel water channels 41 and air channels 42 are arranged inside the long rod 4 along its length. Several sets of first water outlets 411 and first air outlets 421 are arranged on one side of the long rod 4, and several sets of second air outlets 422 and second water outlets 412 are arranged on the other side of the long rod 4. The first water outlets 411 are perpendicular to the water channels 41, and the second water outlets 412 are connected to one end of the semi-circular annular channel A413, while the other end of the semi-circular annular channel B413 is connected to the water channels 41. The first air outlets 421 are connected to one end of the semi-circular annular channel B423, while the other end of the semi-circular annular channel A423 is connected to the air channels 42. The second air outlets 422 are perpendicular to the air channels 42. Specifically, multiple sets of first water outlets 411 and first air outlets 421 are opened along the length of the long rod 4 on the side near the water channels 41. Water flows through the water channels 411 and B421. Water flows through the first vertical water outlet 411 and is sprayed out by the water nozzle 414. Air flows through the air channel 42 into the semi-circular annular channel B423 and then through the first air outlet 421 and is sprayed out by the air nozzle 424. Multiple sets of second air outlets 422 and second water outlets 412 are opened along the length direction on the side of the long rod 4 near the air channel 42. Air flows through the air channel 42 into the second vertical air outlet 422 and is sprayed out by the air nozzle 424. Water flows through the water channel 41 into the semi-circular annular channel A413 and then through the second water outlet 412 and is sprayed out by the water nozzle 414. This achieves that each side of the long rod 4 has water nozzles 414 and air nozzles 424 arranged alternately, realizing simultaneous humidification and air circulation. At the same time, the water channel 41 and the air channel 42 are independently controlled, and the water-air ratio can be flexibly adjusted to meet the different humidity and oxygen requirements of different bacterial species.
[0035] like Figures 4-5 As shown, in this embodiment, the first water outlet 411 and the second water outlet 412 are equipped with water nozzles 414, and the first air outlet 421 and the second air outlet 422 are equipped with air nozzles 424; one end of the long rod 4 extends outward through the fixing ring 43 to connect the water inlet pipe 5 and the air inlet pipe 6, which are respectively connected to the water supply system 7 and the air supply system 8 on both sides of the greenhouse 1; both ends of the long rod 4 are adapted to be fitted into the fixing ring 43, which is located at the bottom end of the telescopic rod of the reversing electric cylinder 44, which is vertically fixed to the bottom surface of the crossbeam 3; specifically, the water inlet pipe 5 and the air inlet pipe 6 are independently controlled. The system allows for adjustment of the water-to-air ratio. The water nozzle 414 is an atomizing nozzle, a readily available product. The sprayed water is directly atomized into water vapor, facilitating even distribution of water vapor within the greenhouse 1. The air nozzle 424, spaced apart from the water nozzle 414, creates an air vortex, promoting uniform temperature and humidity distribution within the greenhouse 1. Simultaneously, the long rod 4 can move up and down under the action of the telescopic rod of the reversing electric cylinder 44, meeting the humidification needs of the bottom layer of the multi-layer mushroom rack 2. Furthermore, the airflow generated by the air nozzle 424 breaks the traditional static humidification mode, preventing excessively high local humidity or ventilation dead zones, and reducing the risk of mold growth.
[0036] like Figures 3-4 As shown, in this embodiment, several sets of automatic pipe retractors A51 and B61 are provided on the outer wall of the crossbeam 3. Automatic pipe retractors A51 and B61 are used for winding and releasing the water inlet pipe 5 and the air inlet pipe 6, respectively. The distance between adjacent long rods 4 is greater than the width of the mushroom rack 2, and a mushroom rack 2 is set between every two long rods 4. Natural ventilation openings 9 are provided at the front and rear ends of the greenhouse 1, respectively. Specifically, the automatic pipe retractor B61 is a commercially available product, and its specific structure and principle will not be described in detail here. Parts of the water inlet pipe 5 and the air inlet pipe 6 are wound inside the automatic pipe retractors A51 and B61, respectively, so that the water inlet pipe 5 and the air inlet pipe 6 can be automatically wound and released when the long rods 4 are raised and lowered, and the excessively long water inlet pipe 5 and air inlet pipe 6 can be pulled off from the outside and fall off.
[0037] This utility model provides a working principle for a humidification device used in edible fungus cultivation: When in use, the operator starts the water supply system 7 and the air supply system 8 to send water and air into the water inlet pipe 5 and the air inlet pipe 6. The water and air enter the water channel 41 and the air channel 42 of the long rod 4 through the water inlet pipe 5 and the air inlet pipe 6, respectively, and are then sprayed horizontally by the water nozzles 414 and the air nozzles 424 spaced apart on both sides of the long rod 4. At the same time, the reversing electric cylinder 44 can be activated. The reversing electric cylinder 44 drives the long rod 4 to move up and down in the vertical direction through the telescopic rod, so that each layer of mushroom bags on the mushroom rack 2 can receive water vapor and fresh air.
[0038] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the 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 or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
