[0030] The support net 7 is located at the bottom of the support plate 5. The mesh of the support net 7 is distributed in a gradient pattern, with the mesh density in the central area being greater than that at the edges. A float plate 8 is suspended above the support plate 5 inside the incubator. The float plate 8 has a third circular opening 9. Several hooks 16 are distributed at rounded corners at the bottom of the support plate 5 outside the second circular opening 6. The support net 7 is hung on the hooks 16. Through the cooperation of the hooks 16, the support net 7 can be easily installed and removed from the bottom of the support plate 5, thereby facilitating the cleaning and maintenance of the support net 7.

[0031] Four movable rods 10 are fixedly installed at the four corners of the bottom of the float plate 8, and a vertical holding mechanism 11 is provided on the support bracket 1.

[0032] The support height adjustment mechanism 4 includes:

[0033] Threaded rod 4-1, there are four threaded rods 4-1, which are respectively inserted into four support rods 3 by threaded rotation. The upper end of the threaded rod 4-1 is inserted into the support plate 5 by bearing rotation. The upper end of the threaded rod 4-1 is fixedly sleeved with a gear 4-2. A connecting rod 4-5 connects adjacent support rods 3.

[0034] Adjustment handle 4-3 is rotatably inserted into the upper part of support plate 5 via bearing, and is fixedly connected to the upper end of threaded rod 4-1 on the left front side. A gear ring 4-4 ​​is rotatably installed in support plate 5 via bearing, and the gear ring 4-4 ​​meshes with four gears 4-2. The distance between support rod 3 and support plate 5 can be adjusted by rotating threaded rod 4-1, thereby facilitating the adjustment of the hydroponic height of European plum.

[0035] The vertical holding mechanism 11 includes:

[0036] The semi-ring retainer 11-1 consists of two semi-ring retainers 11-1, both of which are abutted on the upper part of the support bracket 1. Two protrusions 11-2 are fixedly provided at the bottom of the semi-ring retainer 11-1, and the protrusions 11-2 are movably inserted into the groove 12 opened on the upper part of the support bracket 1.

[0037] The second protrusion 11-3 consists of two protrusions, which are respectively fixedly installed on the front and rear sides of the right side wall of the left semi-ring retainer 11-1.

A rubber pad 14 is fixedly mounted on the side wall of the movable plate 11-6. The rubber pad 14 has anti-slip textures 15. The rubber pad 14 can prevent the movable plate 11-6 from directly contacting the stem of the European plum when clamping and fixing it, thus avoiding damage. At the same time, the anti-slip textures 15 can also increase the friction between the rubber pad 14 and the European plum, thereby improving the support stability of the European plum in hydroponic conditions.

[0039] When using this invention, the support plate 5 is placed inside the incubator, and the support rod 3 is pressed against the bottom wall of the incubator to provide support. Then, the roots of the European plum are placed on the support net 7. Next, the float plate 8 is fitted onto the European plum, and part of the roots are passed through the No. 3 circular opening 9 and placed above the float plate 8. The float plate 8 floats on the water surface of the incubator according to water level changes, allowing the roots above the float plate 8 to be exposed to air and avoid oxygen deficiency. Finally, the support bracket 1 is fitted onto the European plum and pressed against the top opening of the incubator. Then, place the two semi-ring retainers 11-1 on the left and right sides of the European plum stem, respectively. Then, insert the second protrusion 11-3 into the second groove 13 so that the semi-ring retainers 11-1 on both sides abut against each other. At the same time, several rubber pads 14 also abut against the European plum stem. The moving plate 11-6 clamps the European plum stem under the influence of the pushing force applied by the spring 11-5. Finally, insert the first protrusion 11-2 into the first groove 12 to limit the two semi-ring retainers 11-1 on the support bracket 1 and complete the support and fixation of the European plum in hydroponic state.

[0040] If it is necessary to adjust the height of the European plum root in the incubator, the adjustment handle 4-3 can be rotated. The adjustment handle 4-3 drives the threaded rod 4-1 on the left front side to rotate. The threaded rod 4-1 drives the gear 4-2 connected to it to rotate. By using the rotation of gear 4-2 and gear ring 4-4, the four threaded rods 4-1 can be rotated synchronously, changing the distance between the support rod 3 and the support plate 5, thereby adjusting the height of the European plum root placed on the support net 7.

[0041] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0042] By combining the support rod 3, support plate 5, support net 7, floating plate 8 and movable rod 10, part of the roots of the European plum can be exposed to the air, so as to maintain good oxygen supply to the roots of the European plum.

[0043] With the support of the height adjustment mechanism 4, the height of the European plum roots inside the incubator can be adjusted to meet the needs of different growth stages.

[0044] With the help of hook 16, the support net 7 can be easily installed and removed from the bottom of the support plate 5, which makes it convenient to clean and maintain the support net 7.

[0045] The observation window 17 allows for observation of the root development of European plum in the incubator, and the scale lines 18 also allow staff to determine the remaining water level in the incubator.
