Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of agricultural planting technology, and in particular to a rock-planted fruit cucumber cultivation device. Background Technology
[0002] Greenhouses provide a stable and suitable growing environment for cucumbers, allowing them to reach their full potential and improving both yield and quality. Greenhouses isolate cucumbers from external climate influences, providing a continuous and stable environment. This extends the growing season and increases planting opportunities. By controlling environmental factors such as light, temperature, and humidity, greenhouses promote the growth and development of cucumbers, thereby increasing yield.
[0003] When growing cucumbers in greenhouses, using ropes to guide the vines to grow vertically significantly saves ground space and improves greenhouse space utilization. Simultaneously, keeping the cucumbers vertical accelerates air circulation, reduces humidity, lowers the incidence of diseases like powdery mildew, and avoids friction wounds caused by vines creeping along the ground, reducing the risk of soil-borne disease infection. Currently, the common method of trellising involves running a steel wire along the row above the cucumber planting rows, attaching nylon hanging lines, one for each plant, and tying slipknots on the vines. This method is cumbersome, time-consuming, and labor-intensive, hindering large-scale cucumber cultivation. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a rock-planted fruit cucumber cultivation device that uses planting rock as the cultivation medium. The planting rock can be perlite. This device can solve the problem of severe soil-borne diseases in fruit cucumbers, enabling uninterrupted continuous planting and production, and quickly trellising the vines of greenhouse-grown fruit cucumbers, thus reducing labor intensity.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0006] A rock-planted fruit cucumber cultivation device includes a greenhouse body and a traction mechanism. Cultivation areas are respectively set on both sides of the bottom of the greenhouse body. Multiple planting troughs are set at intervals in the cultivation areas. Planting rocks are set at the bottom of the planting troughs.
[0007] A connecting rod is fixedly installed above each planting trough. Multiple traction mechanisms are provided and located within the connecting rods. Each traction mechanism includes a winding box, a traction rope, and a fixing clamp. The winding box is connected to the connecting rod. A winding drum is rotatably installed inside the winding box. One end of the traction rope is fixedly connected to the winding drum and wound inside the winding drum. The other end extends out of the winding box and is connected to the fixing clamp. The fixing clamp is a spring clamp for holding the cucumber stem. The winding box is provided with a first handle screw for limiting the rotation of the winding drum.
[0008] Furthermore, limit plates are fixedly provided on both sides of the winding drum, and the first handle screw is threaded through the winding box and abuts against the limit plates to restrict the rotation of the winding drum.
[0009] Furthermore, an adjusting shaft is provided on the side of the winding drum away from the first handle screw. The adjusting shaft passes through the winding box and is rotatably connected to the winding box. One end of the adjusting shaft is fixedly connected to the limiting plate, and the other end is provided with a handle.
[0010] Furthermore, one end of the winding box is provided with a through lead hole, and the other end is provided with a connector. One side of the connector is recessed with a connection port so that the connector can be embedded in the connecting rod through the connection port.
[0011] Furthermore, the connector is threaded with a second handle screw, which, after being threaded into the connector port, can abut against the connecting rod.
[0012] Furthermore, a nutrient solution tank is also installed inside the greenhouse.
[0013] Nutrient solution sub-pipes are installed above the planting trough, and a through-hole is provided on the side of the nutrient solution sub-pipes facing the planting trough. Each nutrient solution sub-pipe in the cultivation area is connected to the nutrient solution tank through a nutrient solution main pipe, and a drainage pump is provided in the nutrient solution main pipe.
[0014] A collection pool is provided at one end of the planting trough. The opening height of the collection pool is aligned with the height of the planting rock so that the nutrient solution overflowing from the planting rock can enter the collection pool. The collection pool is provided with a discharge pipe.
[0015] The discharge pipe of the cultivation area is connected to the nutrient solution tank through a recovery main pipe, and the recovery main pipe is equipped with a water pump.
[0016] The drainage pump and the water pump are controlled by a controller.
[0017] Furthermore, the collection pools of the two cultivation areas are arranged opposite each other, and the ground of the cultivation area is provided with a sloping slope. The sloping slope is arranged along both sides of the shed to the middle, so that the middle of the shed ground is lower than the sides of the shed ground.
[0018] Furthermore, a nutrient solution concentration sensor is installed in the nutrient solution tank. The nutrient solution tank is equipped with a nutrient solution replenishment pipe and a water replenishment pipe. One end of the nutrient solution replenishment pipe is electrically connected to the nutrient solution tank, and the other end is connected to the nutrient solution stock storage tank. The nutrient solution replenishment pipe is also equipped with a first switching valve. One end of the water replenishment pipe is electrically connected to the nutrient solution tank, and the other end is connected to the water supply end. The water replenishment pipe is also equipped with a second switching valve. The nutrient solution concentration sensor, the first switching valve, and the second switching valve are electrically connected to the controller.
[0019] Furthermore, each of the planting troughs is equipped with a soil sensor, and a third switch valve is provided at one end of the nutrient solution sub-pipe near the main nutrient solution pipe. The soil sensor and the third switch valve are electrically connected to the controller.
[0020] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0021] 1. A connecting rod is installed above the planting trough for connecting the traction mechanism. The traction rope is adjusted to a suitable length by winding up the reel and then secured with the first handle screw. The fixing clip is then attached to the stem of the cucumber plant to suspend the vines. This simple and quick operation improves vine-suspending efficiency, eliminating the need to knot the traction rope and preventing damage to the cucumber stems. Furthermore, using perlite as the planting medium ensures ample oxygen intake for the cucumber roots, reducing the risk of root rot. It also deprives many soil-borne pests and diseases of their habitat, significantly reducing pesticide use and pest and disease incidence. The resulting produce is greener, safer, and meets consumer demand for high-quality agricultural products.
[0022] 2. Because the connector has a recessed connection port, the connector can be embedded in the connecting rod through the connection port. This allows for the selection of an appropriate number of traction mechanisms based on the number of cucumbers in each planting trough. At the same time, by tightening the second handle screw, the connector can be fixed to the connecting rod to prevent the connector from falling off accidentally.
[0023] 3. The nutrient solution discharged from the main pipe is collected into the nutrient solution tank by a water pump, thus realizing continuous recycling and reuse of the nutrient solution and improving its reuse efficiency. A nutrient solution concentration sensor can monitor the concentration of the nutrient solution in the tank in real time. Based on the data from the sensor, the controller controls the opening and closing of the first and second switching valves to inject water and nutrient solution concentrate into the tank, ensuring the nutrient solution is at the required concentration. This guarantees that the cucumbers receive the appropriate nutrients, reducing the need for manual mixing and enabling barrier-free crop rotation production. Attached Figure Description

[0033] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
[0034] Please also see Figures 1 to 6 A preferred embodiment of the present invention is a rock-planted fruit cucumber cultivation device, which includes a greenhouse body 1 and a traction mechanism. Cultivation areas are respectively set on both sides of the bottom of the greenhouse body 1, and multiple planting troughs 3 are set at intervals in the cultivation areas. Planting rocks 31 are set at the bottom of the planting troughs 3.
[0035] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a connecting rod 11 is fixedly installed above each planting trough 3. Multiple traction mechanisms are installed in the connecting rod 11. The traction mechanism includes a winding box 2, a traction rope 21, and a fixing clamp 22. The winding box 2 is connected to the connecting rod 11. A winding drum 201 is rotatably installed inside the winding box 2. One end of the traction rope 21 is fixedly connected to the winding drum 201 and wound inside the winding drum 201. The other end passes out of the winding box 2 and is connected to the fixing clamp 22. The fixing clamp 22 is a spring clamp for clamping the stem of the fruit cucumber. The winding box 2 is provided with a first handle screw 23 for limiting the rotation of the winding drum 201.
[0036] like Figure 4 As shown, the clamping part of the fixing clip 22 in this embodiment is provided with a rubber protective pad 221 to prevent damage to the stem of the cucumber. The fixing clip 22 is provided with a connecting ring 222 for connecting to the traction rope 21.
[0037] A connecting rod 11 is installed above the planting trough 3 for connecting the traction mechanism. The traction rope 21 is adjusted to a suitable length by winding the winding drum 201 and then fixed by the first handle screw 23. The fixing clip 22 is clamped at the stem of the cucumber to achieve vine trellising. The operation is simple and quick, improving the efficiency of vine trellising. There is no need to tie the traction rope 21, which avoids the traction rope 21 from damaging the stem of the cucumber.
[0038] Using planting rocks, such as perlite, as the cultivation medium allows the roots of cucumbers to breathe more oxygen, making them less prone to root rot. It also deprives many soil-borne pests and diseases of their habitat, significantly reducing pesticide use and pest and disease occurrence. The resulting agricultural products are greener and safer, meeting consumers' demand for high-quality agricultural products.
[0039] like Figure 3 As shown, limit plates 202 are fixedly installed on both sides of the winding drum 201. The first handle screw 23 is threaded through the winding box 2 and abuts against the limit plate 202 to restrict the rotation of the winding drum 201, so that the traction rope 21 can be fixed at the current length.
[0040] An adjusting shaft 25 is provided on the side of the winding drum 201 away from the first handle screw 23. The adjusting shaft 25 passes through the winding box 2 and is rotatably connected to the winding box 2. One end of the adjusting shaft 25 is fixedly connected to the limiting plate 202, and the other end is provided with a handle 251. By rotating the handle 251, the winding adjustment of the traction rope 21 can be easily performed to adjust the length of the traction rope 21, thereby adapting it to the position of the cucumber stem.
[0041] like Figure 3 As shown, the winding box 2 has a through lead hole 203 at one end and a connector 24 at the other end. A connection port 241 is recessed on one side of the connector 24 so that the connector 24 can be embedded in the connecting rod 11 through the connection port 241.
[0042] The connector 24 is threaded with a second handle screw 242, which, after being threaded into the connection port 241, can abut against the connecting rod 11. In this embodiment, the connecting rod 11 has a rectangular cross-section, and the connection port 241 is a rectangular structure that slides with the connecting rod 11.
[0043] Since the connector 24 has a recessed connection port 241, the connector 24 can be embedded in the connecting rod 11 through the connection port 241, so that the appropriate number of traction mechanisms can be selected according to the number of cucumbers in each planting trough 3. At the same time, by tightening the second handle screw 242, the connector 24 can be fixed on the connecting rod 11 to prevent the connector 24 from falling off accidentally.
[0044] like Figure 5As shown, a nutrient solution pool 12 is also installed inside the greenhouse 1.
[0045] Nutrient solution sub-pipes 4 are installed above the planting trough 3. A through drain hole 401 is provided on the side of the nutrient solution sub-pipes 4 facing the planting trough 3. Each nutrient solution sub-pipe 4 in the cultivation area is connected to the nutrient solution tank 12 through the nutrient solution main pipe 41. The nutrient solution main pipe 41 is equipped with a drain pump 42.
[0046] A collection pool 32 is provided at one end of the planting trough 3. The opening height of the collection pool 32 is aligned with the height of the planting rock 31 so that the nutrient solution overflowing from the planting rock 31 can enter the collection pool 32. The collection pool 32 is provided with a discharge pipe 5.
[0047] The discharge pipe 5 of the cultivation area is connected to the nutrient solution tank 12 through the recycling main pipe 51, and the recycling main pipe 51 is equipped with a water pump 52.
[0048] The drainage pump 42 and the water pump 52 are controlled by the controller 6.
[0049] Under the action of the drainage pump 42, the nutrient solution in the nutrient solution tank 12 is discharged into the nutrient solution sub-pipe 4 through the nutrient solution main pipe 41 and then discharged through the drain hole 401. This allows the nutrient solution to supplement the nutrients needed for the growth of fruit cucumbers in each planting trough 3. At the same time, by setting up a collection tank 32, the nutrient solution overflowing from the planting rock 31 can enter the collection tank 32 and then be discharged into the nutrient solution main pipe 41 through the discharge pipe 5. Under the action of the drainage pump 42, it re-enters the nutrient solution tank 12, thereby realizing the continuous circulation and reuse of the nutrient solution and improving the reuse efficiency of the nutrient solution. At the same time, it can solve the problems of large water and fertilizer loss in traditional soil cultivation and serious salinity in substrate cultivation, and improve the growth rate of fruit cucumbers.
[0050] like Figure 1 As shown, the collection pools 32 of the two cultivation areas are arranged opposite each other. The ground of the cultivation area is provided with a sloping slope, which is set along both sides of the shed 1 towards the middle, so that the middle of the ground of the shed 1 is lower than the sides of the ground of the shed 1. Under the action of the sloping slope, the nutrient solution in the planting trough 3 can flow into the collection pool 32 more quickly under the action of gravity, which improves the return speed of the nutrient solution and further avoids the problem of severe salting.
[0051] In this embodiment, a nutrient solution concentration sensor 121 is installed in the nutrient solution tank 12. The nutrient solution tank 12 is equipped with a nutrient solution replenishment pipe 71 and a water replenishment pipe 72. One end of the nutrient solution replenishment pipe 71 is electrically connected to the nutrient solution tank 12, and the other end is connected to the nutrient solution stock storage tank. The nutrient solution replenishment pipe 71 is equipped with a first switch valve 711. One end of the water replenishment pipe 72 is electrically connected to the nutrient solution tank 12, and the other end is connected to the water supply end. The water replenishment pipe 72 is equipped with a second switch valve 721. The nutrient solution concentration sensor 121, the first switch valve 711, and the second switch valve 721 are electrically connected to the controller 6.
[0052] Each planting trough 3 is equipped with a soil sensor 33, and a third switch valve 43 is installed at one end of the nutrient solution sub-pipe 4 near the nutrient solution main pipe 41. The soil sensor 33 and the third switch valve 43 are electrically connected to the controller 6.
[0053] Under the action of nutrient solution concentration sensor 21, the concentration of nutrient solution in nutrient solution tank 2 can be obtained in real time. Based on the data of nutrient solution concentration sensor 21, controller 6 controls the opening and closing of first switch valve 711 and second switch valve 721, which can inject water and nutrient solution stock solution into nutrient solution tank 2, so that the nutrient solution in nutrient solution tank 12 can be at the required concentration, ensuring that crops can obtain suitable nutrients. Moreover, it is not necessary to manually adjust the solution, reducing labor intensity and realizing barrier-free crop rotation planting production.
[0054] In this embodiment, each planting trough 3 is equipped with a soil sensor 33, and a third switching valve 43 is installed at the end of the nutrient solution sub-pipe 4 near the main nutrient solution pipe 41. The soil sensor 33 and the third switching valve 43 are electrically connected to the controller. The soil sensor 33 in this embodiment includes a soil moisture sensor, a soil temperature sensor, a nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium sensor, and a pH sensor. The soil sensor 33 monitors the data in the planting rock 31, and at the same time, the third switching valve 43 is controlled to individually replenish the nutrient solution in each planting trough 3, thereby achieving precision cultivation.
[0055] This embodiment provides an optimal growing environment for fruit cucumbers, cleverly solving problems such as high water and fertilizer loss in traditional soil cultivation, root rot in hydroponics, heavy salinity in general substrate cultivation, and high energy consumption in aeroponics. The rock-planting cultivation method results in a low and controllable incidence of pests and diseases, enabling pesticide-free, pest-free production; high yield, high efficiency, and high quality; free from pests, diseases, and heavy metal pollution; green, safe, and hygienic; low in fiber; rich in various vitamins; crisp, tender, juicy, and refreshing; vitamin C content is more than three times that of ordinary cultivation; and product quality meets or exceeds the national green double-A standard.
