Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of radish hybrid pollination technology, specifically a portable auxiliary tool for fermented radish hybrid pollination. Background Technology
[0002] In the process of fermented radish hybridization breeding, artificial pollination is a crucial step in ensuring varietal purity and improving the efficiency of transferring superior traits, directly affecting the quality and yield of hybrid seeds. Currently, fermented radish hybridization pollination largely relies on traditional manual operations. Workers need to use tools such as cotton swabs, brushes, or pollination sticks to first collect pollen from the male parent flowers and then apply it one by one to the stigma of the female parent flowers to complete the hybridization pollination. This method is feasible to some extent in small-scale breeding scenarios.
[0003] However, this traditional pollination method has significant drawbacks: each pollination requires repeated pollen collection, a cumbersome and time-consuming process. Especially in large-scale hybridization breeding, frequent pollen collection significantly increases labor intensity and reduces pollination efficiency. More importantly, the amount of pollen collected depends entirely on the operator's experience. Too much pollen can damage the stigma or cause pollen buildup, affecting fertilization; insufficient pollen makes it difficult to guarantee pollination success, directly impacting the hybridization seed set rate.
[0004] Therefore, developing a portable auxiliary tool for hybrid pollination of fermented radishes that can simplify the operation process and accurately control the amount of pollination has become an urgent need to improve the efficiency of hybrid breeding and ensure the quality of pollination. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a portable auxiliary tool for hybrid pollination of fermented radishes, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0007] A portable auxiliary tool for hybrid pollination of fermented radishes includes a pollination pen, a powder brush head, and a powder storage tank. The side wall of the pollination pen is fixedly provided with a feed inlet communicating with it, and one end of the pollination pen is provided with a discharge outlet with a mesh structure.

The powder brush head is provided with a soft brush. The other end of the pollination pen is also provided with a drive assembly for intermittently rotating the conveying auger.
[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the driving assembly includes a limiting sleeve, a movable tube, a rotating column, a first spring, a second spring, a movable rod, and a lever. The limiting sleeve is fixedly installed at the end of the pollination pen rod, and a circular hole is provided at the end of the limiting sleeve. The rotating column is rotatably disposed inside the limiting sleeve and is coaxially and fixedly connected to the conveying auger. Two first lever grooves and two second lever grooves are provided on the side wall of the rotating column. The first lever grooves and the second lever grooves are spaced apart and connected to each other.

A baffle is installed at one end of the movable rod, and a lever that slides and adapts to the first lever grooves and the second lever groove is fixedly disposed at the other end.
[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the outer side wall of the movable tube is symmetrically provided with limiting grooves, and a protrusion that is slidably adapted to the limiting groove is fixedly provided in the circular hole.
[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the pollination pen is also provided with a blower assembly, which includes an inflation tube, a movable button, a third spring, a connecting tube, and a nozzle.

The overall structure simplifies the operation process and significantly improves pollination efficiency.
[0014] This utility model's blower assembly uses airflow to assist pollen discharge, preventing outlet blockage and ensuring smooth pollen delivery; the dustproof net prevents pollen from entering the connecting pipe in reverse and causing blockage, further improving the stability and reliability of the pollination process and helping to increase the success rate of hybridization pollination.

[0022] The technical solution of this patent will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments. Example
[0023] Please see Figure 1-6A portable auxiliary tool for hybrid pollination of fermented radishes includes a pollination pen 1, which serves as the main frame of the tool, connecting various functional components and providing an operating grip, a brush head 2, and a pollen storage tank 3. A feed inlet 4 is fixedly provided on the side wall of the pollination pen 1, providing a channel for pollen to enter the pollination pen 1 from the pollen storage tank 3. An outlet 5, which has a mesh structure, is provided at one end of the pollination pen 1 to evenly disperse the pollen and prevent concentrated spillage. A conveying auger 6 is also rotatably installed inside the pollination pen 1, which pushes the pollen by rotation to achieve quantitative delivery. This invention addresses the problem of controlling pollination quantity in the background technology. A pollen storage tank 3 is threaded onto the inlet 4. The storage tank 3 seals and stores pollen, reducing frequent dabbing operations and simplifying the process. A brush head 2 is threaded onto the outlet 5 and equipped with a soft brush 7. The soft brush 7 applies pollen to the stigma, avoiding damage. The other end of the pollination pen 1 is equipped with a drive assembly that intermittently rotates the conveying auger 6. This drive assembly controls the amount of pollen delivered by the conveying auger 6 through intermittent rotation, achieving precise quantity control. This part combines pollen storage with quantitative conveying, eliminating repeated dabbing steps and solving the problem of cumbersome traditional operations. Example
[0024] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6The driving assembly includes a limiting sleeve 8, a movable tube 9, a rotating column 10, a first spring 13, a second spring 15, a movable rod 14, and a lever 16. The limiting sleeve 8 is fixedly installed at the end of the pollination pen rod 1, providing installation and protection space for the driving assembly. A circular hole is provided at the end of the limiting sleeve 8. The rotating column 10 is rotatably disposed within the limiting sleeve 8 and coaxially fixedly connected to the conveying auger 6. Two inclined first lever grooves 11 and two vertically arranged second lever grooves 12 are provided on the side wall of the rotating column 10. The first lever grooves 11 and second lever grooves 12 are spaced apart and connected to each other. The depth of the first lever grooves 11 decreases progressively from top to bottom, and the top depth of the second lever groove 12 is lower than the top depth of the first lever groove 11. The inclined structure of the first lever groove 11 drives... The rotating column 10 rotates, and the vertical structure of the second groove 12 ensures that the rotating column 10 is not driven during reset, realizing unidirectional drive. The movable tube 9 passes through the circular hole and is movably sleeved on the rotating column 10 through the first spring 13. The first spring 13 provides the reset elastic force for the movable tube 9, realizing reciprocating pressing operation. The side wall of the movable tube 9 is also equipped with a movable rod 14 through the second spring 15. One end of the movable rod 14 is equipped with a baffle, and the other end is fixedly equipped with a lever 16 that slides and adapts to the first groove 11 and the second groove 12. The lever 16 slides along the groove and drives the rotating column 10 to rotate. The second spring 15 ensures that the lever 16 fits tightly in the groove. The number of times the movable tube 9 is pressed controls the number of rotations of the conveying auger 6, realizing quantitative pollen delivery and solving the problem of traditional pollination quantity relying on experience. Example
[0025] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5 The outer side wall of the movable tube 9 is also symmetrically provided with limiting grooves 17, and a protrusion 18 is fixedly provided in the round hole to slide and adapt to the limiting groove 17. The limiting groove 17 and the protrusion 18 cooperate to restrict the movable tube 9 to move only along the axial direction, avoid rotation or falling off, and ensure driving stability. Example
[0026] Please see Figure 1-3The pollination pen 1 is also equipped with a blower assembly, which includes an inflation tube 19, an active button 20, a third spring 21, a connecting tube 22, and a nozzle 23. The inflation tube 19 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the pollination pen 1. The inflation tube 19 stores air for blowing. The nozzle 23 is installed on the side wall of the inflation tube 19 through the connecting tube 22. The nozzle 23 is installed at the discharge port 5 of the pollination pen 1 and tilted towards the discharge port 5. The nozzle 23 blows air in a directional manner to help pollen be discharged from the discharge port 5 and avoid blockage. The active button 20 is movably installed in the inflation tube 19 through the third spring 21. The end of the active button 20 located in the inflation tube 19 is also equipped with a piston 24. The piston 24 is slidably installed in the inflation tube 19. The piston 24 compresses air to generate airflow through reciprocating motion. The third spring 21 assists the active button 20 to reset. The blower assembly solves the problem of pollen accumulation at the discharge port 5 and ensures smooth pollen delivery. Example
[0027] Please see Figure 3 The nozzle 23 is also equipped with a dustproof net 25, which prevents pollen from entering the connecting pipe 22 in reverse and causing blockage, thus ensuring the long-term reliable use of the blower assembly.
[0028] Working principle:
[0029] In use, pollen is loaded into the pollen storage tank 3 and screwed tightly onto the inlet 4. The pollen enters the pollination pen 1 through the inlet 4. Holding the pollination pen 1, the soft brush 7 of the brush head 2 is aligned with the stigma of the parent flower. The thumb presses the movable tube 9: the movable tube 9 drives the lever 16 to slide along the first groove 11, driving the rotating column 10 to rotate synchronously with the conveying auger 6 at a certain angle, pushing a quantitative amount of pollen towards the outlet 5. Releasing the movable tube 9 causes the first spring 13 to reset it, the lever 16 slides along the second groove 12, and the rotating column 10 does not rotate. This process is repeated, and the amount of pollen conveyed is precisely controlled by the number of presses. If pollen accumulates at the outlet 5, the movable button 20 is pressed, the piston 24 compresses the air in the air inlet tube 19, and the airflow is blown from the nozzle 23 to the outlet 5 through the connecting tube 22, helping the pollen fall onto the soft brush 7 through the mesh structure, and finally being applied to the stigma through the soft brush 7. The dustproof net 25 prevents pollen backflow, and the limiting groove 17 and the protrusion 18 ensure the stable movement of the movable tube 9. This design, through the structure of "continuous pollen supply from the pollen storage tank + quantitative pollen delivery by the conveying auger + air-assisted pollen discharge", solves the problems of cumbersome pollination operation and difficulty in controlling the pollen quantity in the background technology, and improves the efficiency and accuracy of hybrid pollination of fermented radishes.
