Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of agricultural plant protection equipment, and more specifically, it relates to a seedling box. Background Technology

[0002] Seedling raising is the process of cultivating seedlings, which is crucial to the harvest of crops. Strong seedlings are the foundation of a bumper harvest. Currently, when cultivating and protecting agricultural plant seedlings, seedling boxes are generally used to protect the seedlings.

[0003] For example, a seedling box with authorization announcement number CN219593157U uses a fixed guide tube installed inside the box. With micropores on the surface of the guide tube, water gradually seeps into the soil, allowing the plant roots to effectively absorb water. Turning the first handle rotates the stirring shaft, which in turn rotates the stirring rod, allowing nutrients to be added into the water tank for convenient nutrient absorption. However, this seedling box has a limitation: when the seedling stems or leaves need water, the fixed height of the guide tube makes it difficult to water the higher parts of the seedling stems, thus reducing the overall effectiveness of the seedling box. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a seedling box that solves the problem that when the stems or leaves of seedlings inside the box need to absorb water, the height of the duct is fixed, making it difficult to water the higher parts of the seedling stems, which reduces the effectiveness of the seedling box.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a seedling box, comprising a box body, the upper surface of which is rotatably connected to a knob via a bearing, the lower end of which penetrates the box body and is fixedly connected to a threaded rod, the lower end of which is rotatably connected to the box body via a bearing, two corrugated pipes mounted on the surface of the threaded rod, one end of each corrugated pipe being fixedly connected to the inner wall of the box body, the outer wall of the threaded rod being threadedly connected to a threaded block, the other end of each corrugated pipe being fixedly connected to the threaded block, the outer wall of the threaded block being fixedly connected to a support, the inner wall of the support being connected to multiple connecting pipes, each connecting pipe having multiple nozzles mounted on its surface, the outer wall of the support being connected to two water storage tanks, and the support being U-shaped.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, both water tanks are equipped with water inlet pipes on their surfaces.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a baffle is installed on the inner wall of the box, and a serpentine tube is fixedly inserted through the outer wall of the baffle. One end of the serpentine tube is connected to the water inlet, and the other end of the serpentine tube is connected to the water outlet. Both the water inlet and the water outlet are machined on the surface of the sliding door, which is installed on the surface of the box. Sealing gaskets are installed at the ends of both the water inlet and the water outlet, and sealing gaskets are installed at both ends of the serpentine tube.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the surface of the sliding door is processed with an observation window, and a handle is installed on the surface of the sliding door.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, ventilation openings are machined on both sides of the box.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, soft pads are installed at the contact points between the bracket and the inner wall of the box.

[0011] This utility model provides a seedling box, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] 1. This new type of seedling cultivation system comprises a box, knob, threaded rod, corrugated pipe, threaded block, bracket, connecting pipe, nozzle, and water tank. When watering is needed at a higher point on the seedlings, the operator first adds nutrient solution to the water tank through the inlet pipe using an external pump. Then, the operator turns the knob, which drives the threaded rod to rotate. The threaded rod then moves the threaded block upward, which in turn moves the bracket upward. The bracket moves the connecting pipe upward, simultaneously moving both water tanks upward. When the connecting pipe moves the surface-mounted nozzle to a suitable height, allowing the nozzle to spray water onto the stem of the seedling, the operator stops turning the knob. The external pump then sends the nutrient solution from the water tank into the bracket and into the connecting pipe. Finally, the nozzle sprays the nutrient solution onto the neck of the seedling. This method ensures that when the stem or leaves of the seedling need water, the seedling box can also spray water to the required location, thus improving the working efficiency of the seedling box.

[0013] 2. Through the inlet, outlet, and serpentine pipe, when heating is required inside the seedling tray, the operator sends hot water of suitable temperature into the serpentine pipe through the inlet. Since the serpentine pipe is buried in the soil of the seedling tray, it will heat up the surrounding soil, bringing the temperature near the roots of the seedlings to a suitable level for seedling growth. Afterward, the hot water in the serpentine pipe is discharged from the outlet. In this way, the seedlings in the seedling tray can grow at a more comfortable temperature, which also improves the working efficiency of the seedling tray. Attached Figure Description

[0022] Please see Figures 1 to 4This utility model provides a seedling box technical solution: It includes a box body 1, the upper surface of which is rotatably connected to a knob 2 via a bearing. The knob 2 rotates on the box body 1, and its lower end penetrates the box body 1 and is fixedly connected to a threaded rod 4. The knob 2 drives the threaded rod 4 to rotate. The lower end of the threaded rod 4 is rotatably connected to the box body 1 via a bearing. The threaded rod 4 rotates on the box body 1. Two corrugated pipes 3 are installed on the surface of the threaded rod 4. The corrugated pipes 3 prevent soil from contacting the threaded rod 4, thereby preventing the threaded rod 4 from failing. One end of each of the two corrugated pipes 3 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the box body 1. The corrugated pipes 3 are fixed to the box body 1. The outer wall of the threaded rod 4 is connected to the threaded rod 4. The threaded block 5 is connected by threads, and the threaded rod 4 drives the threaded block 5 to move. The other ends of the two bellows 3 are fixedly connected to the threaded block 5. The threaded block 5 drives the other ends of the bellows 3 to move. The outer wall of the threaded block 5 is fixedly connected to the bracket 6. The threaded block 5 drives the bracket 6 to move. The inner wall of the bracket 6 is connected to multiple connecting pipes 7. The bracket 6 drives the connecting pipes 7 to move. Multiple nozzles 8 are installed on the surface of the multiple connecting pipes 7. The model of the nozzle 8 is selected according to actual needs and can meet the working requirements. The outer wall of the bracket 6 is connected to two water storage tanks 12. The liquid in the water storage tanks 12 can enter the bracket 6. The bracket 6 is U-shaped. When watering is needed at higher points on the seedlings, the operator first adds nutrient solution to the water tank 12 through the inlet pipe 18 using an external pump. Then, the operator turns knob 2, which drives the threaded rod 4 to rotate. The threaded rod 4 drives the threaded block 5 to move upward, which in turn drives the support 6 to move upward. The support 6 drives the connecting pipe 7 to move upward, simultaneously moving both water tanks 12 upward. When the connecting pipe 7 moves the surface-mounted nozzle 8 to a suitable height, allowing the nozzle 8 to spray water onto the stem of the seedling, the operator stops turning knob 2. Then, the nutrient solution in the water tank 12 is pumped into the support 6 and flows into the connecting pipe 7 through the external pump. Finally, the nutrient solution is sprayed onto the neck of the seedling through the nozzle 8. In this way, when the stem or leaves of the seedling need to absorb water, the seedling box can also spray water to the required location, thus improving the working efficiency of the seedling box.

[0023] Both water storage tanks 12 are equipped with water inlet pipes 18.

[0024] The inner wall of the box 1 is equipped with a baffle 11 to prevent soil from flowing out of the box 1 when the sliding door 15 is opened. A serpentine tube 10 is fixedly inserted through the outer wall of the baffle 11. One end of the serpentine tube 10 is connected to the water inlet 14, and hot water enters the serpentine tube 10 through the water inlet 14. The other end of the serpentine tube 10 is connected to the water outlet 16, and the water in the serpentine tube 10 is discharged from the water outlet 16. The water inlet 14 and the water outlet 16 are both machined on the surface of the sliding door 15. The sliding door 15 drives the water inlet 14 and the water outlet 16 to move. The sliding door 15 is installed on the surface of the box 1. Sealing gaskets are installed at the ends of the water inlet 14 and the water outlet 16 to prevent leakage at the contact point between the water inlet 14 and the water outlet 16 and the serpentine tube 10. Sealing gaskets are installed at both ends of the serpentine tube 10.

[0025] The sliding door 15 has an observation window 17 on its surface, which allows the operator to observe the inside of the box 1. The sliding door 15 is also equipped with a handle 9, which makes it easy for the operator to open the sliding door 15.

[0026] Ventilation openings 13 are machined on both sides of the box 1 to ensure that there is always fresh air inside the box 1, which is conducive to the growth of seedlings.

[0027] The bracket 6 and the inner wall of the housing 1 are fitted with soft pads to prevent damage to the bracket 6 and the housing 1 when they come into contact.

[0028] The specific usage and function of this embodiment are as follows:

[0029] In use, the operator first opens the sliding door 15 using handle 9, then places appropriate soil inside the box 1, transplants the seedlings into the soil, closes the sliding door 15, and observes the inside of the box 1 through the observation window 17. When watering is needed, nutrient solution is added to the water storage tank 12 through the external pump and water inlet pipe 18. The pump in the water storage tank 12 sprays the nutrient solution through the support 6, connecting pipe 7, and nozzle 8 to water the seedlings. When watering higher parts of the seedlings is needed, the operator turns knob 2. Knob 2 drives the threaded rod 4 to rotate, which in turn drives the threaded block 5 to move upward. The threaded block 5 drives the support 6 to move upward, and the support 6 drives the connecting pipe 7 to move upward, simultaneously driving the two... The water tank 12 moves upward. When the connecting pipe 7 moves the surface-mounted nozzle 8 to a suitable height so that the nozzle 8 can spray water onto the stem of the seedling, the operator stops turning the knob 2. Then, the nutrient solution in the water tank 12 is sent to the support 6 through the external pump and flows into the connecting pipe 7. The nutrient solution is then sprayed onto the neck of the seedling through the nozzle 8. When it is necessary to heat the seedling box, the operator sends hot water of suitable temperature into the serpentine pipe 10 through the inlet 14. Since the serpentine pipe 10 is buried in the soil of the seedling box, it will heat up the surrounding soil, so that the area near the roots of the seedling reaches a temperature suitable for seedling growth. Then, the hot water in the serpentine pipe 10 is discharged from the outlet 16, completing the seedling cultivation work in the seedling box.

[0030] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
