Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of soilless culture, and in particular to a small-scale, green and healthy vegetable soilless culture machine. Background Technology
[0002] Soilless vegetable cultivation is a modern agricultural technology that grows vegetables by replacing traditional soil-based cultivation media, such as hydroponics, aeroponics, and substrate culture. This cultivation method mainly relies on providing the plants with the necessary water, nutrients, and air without using soil. Hydroponics is the most common form, where the plant's roots are immersed in a nutrient solution, absorbing water and nutrients from the liquid. Aeroponics supplies the plants with air and nutrient solution through spraying, with the roots directly exposed to the air to adapt to a high-oxygen environment. Substrate culture uses artificial substrates to support plant growth while maintaining the necessary water and nutrients.
[0003] The advantages of soilless culture include water conservation, efficient land use, reduced pests and diseases, and increased yield and quality. Because it does not rely on traditional soil, crop growth is not affected by soil pollution and degradation. Moreover, it allows for precise control of water and nutrient supply, optimizing the plant's growth environment. Soilless culture technology is not only suitable for greenhouses and urban agriculture, but also for vegetable cultivation in areas where the environment is unsuitable for traditional agriculture. Through reasonable design and scientific management, soilless vegetable cultivation can significantly improve agricultural production efficiency and meet the growing demand for vegetables.
[0004] When using a hydroponic vegetable growing machine, nutrient solution is diluted with water and poured into the machine's water tank. A water pump then circulates the water, and combined with lighting, soilless cultivation is achieved. However, during cultivation, many factors can cause some vegetables to die, resulting in root rot. This rotten root rots and flows away with the water into the circulation system, easily causing water pollution or pipe blockage. Therefore, a small-scale, green, and healthy soilless vegetable growing machine is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a small-scale green and healthy soilless vegetable cultivation machine, which aims to improve the problem that in the planting process, many factors can cause some vegetables to die, at which point the roots will rot and flow away with the water into the circulation system, easily causing water pollution or pipe blockage.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a small-scale green and healthy soilless vegetable cultivation machine, comprising three planting trays, four supports fixedly connected between two adjacent planting trays, a partition plate slidably connected to the top of the planting tray, a water tank fixedly connected to the bottom of the lower planting tray through the four supports, a water pump fixedly connected to the inner wall of the water tank, a water pipe fixedly connected to the output end of the water pump, the top end of the water pipe fixedly connected to the bottom of the upper planting tray and penetrating the other two planting trays, a filter assembly installed on the right side of the bottom planting tray, and an anti-push-out assembly installed on the top of the planting tray;

A spring is fixedly connected to the right side of the sliding plate. A baffle is slidably connected inside the housing, and a limit plate is fixedly connected to the top of the housing.
[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0011] The outer surface of the ball abuts against the inner shell, and the outer surface of the ball engages with the left side of the filter frame.
[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0013] The bottom of the casing is fixedly connected to the right side of the water tank, and the outside of the water pipe is fixedly connected to the inside of the bracket on the left rear side.
[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0015] The limiting frame is externally slidably connected to the inner wall of the inner shell, and the outer side of the inner shell is fixedly connected to the inside of the bracket.
[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0017] The insertion rod is externally inserted into the front side of the separator plate, and the left side of the baffle is slidably connected to the right side of the limiting plate.
[0018] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0020] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0021] The right end of the second spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer shell, and the second spring is internally sleeved on the outside of the insert rod.
[0022] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0023] 1. In this utility model, the water circulation between the planting tray and the water tank will pass through the filter frame to filter out impurities such as rotten vegetable roots and leaves, preventing them from entering the water tank. At the same time, a spring pushes the limiting frame to drive the ball bearing to lock on the left side of the filter frame, which prevents impurities from entering the circulation and clogging the water pump. The filter frame can also be quickly removed for easy cleaning of impurities.
[0024] 2. In this utility model, the spring pushes the sliding plate, which drives the insert rod into the interior of the dividing plate, thus firmly fixing the dividing plate to the planting plate. This prevents the larger roots from pushing the dividing plate out during vegetable growth, which would cause the smaller vegetable roots to be suspended in the air and unable to contact the nutrient solution, resulting in death.

[0035] Working Principle: When using this device to grow vegetables, first add the nutrient solution diluted with water to the water tank 4, and start cultivating vegetable seeds at the top of the water tank 4 until the seeds germinate. Then transplant them onto the planting tray 1. Before transplanting, install the dividing plate 18. By pulling the insertion rod 15, the sliding plate 16 is driven to compress the second spring 17, causing the insertion rod 15 to retract into the outer shell 14. At the same time, the baffle 3 will automatically fall into the outer shell 14, blocking the outlet of the insertion rod 15. Then, insert the rear side of the dividing plate 18 into the slot on the rear side of the planting tray 1. Next, under the limit of the limiting plate 5, pull the baffle 3. At this time, the second spring 17 will immediately push the sliding plate 16 to reset, driving the insertion rod 15 into the dividing plate 18, thus fixing the dividing plate 18. This way, the dividing plate 18 will not be pushed open by the large vegetable roots during planting. After the dividing plate 18 is installed, control the water pump 6 and the brightness of the light. The water pump 6 pressurizes the water in the water tank 4 and delivers it along the water pipe 7 to the uppermost planting tray 1. Then, through the internal partition, the water flows through each planting tray 1 in sequence, and finally flows back to the water tank 4 through the casing 8, completing a cycle. During the cycle, the water is filtered by the filter frame 9 to remove impurities and prevent damage to the water pump 6. After a period of use, the impurities need to be removed. By pulling the filter frame 9, the filter frame 9 is disengaged from the ball bearing 13, and the impurities inside the filter frame 9 are cleaned before it is reinserted into the casing 8. Initially, the filter frame 9 pushes the ball bearing 13 to compress the spring 11 of the limiting frame 12. When the filter frame 9 is fully inserted, the spring 11 immediately pushes the limiting frame 12 to lock the ball bearing 13 on the left side of the filter frame 9, keeping the filter frame 9 stable. At this point, the cycle of planting can continue. The operation is convenient and labor-saving.
[0036] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
