Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a seedling rack, specifically a seedling rack for hydroponic vegetables, and belongs to the field of hydroponic vegetable technology. Background Technology

[0002] This hydroponic vegetable rack uses pipes as its main frame, with plastic clips to secure the plants, and a tray to collect the nutrient solution. The pipes allow for root growth and nutrient flow, the clips stabilize seedlings to prevent them from falling over, and the tray collects excess nutrient solution to prevent waste. The lightweight and easy-to-assemble structure is suitable for home balconies or small planting areas, making full use of vertical space, facilitating management, and promoting efficient hydroponic cultivation.

[0003] The existing hydroponic vegetable rack consists of stainless steel pipes, plastic sleeves, and a tray. The sleeves are fitted onto the stainless steel column, and the tray is placed on the stainless steel column and the plastic sleeve. The tray is used to hold nutrient solution and vegetables, saving space and being easy to assemble.

[0004] The aforementioned device has obvious drawbacks: Initially, the plastic clamps, due to their excellent elasticity, provide a tight and secure fit for the stainless steel tube. However, over time, repeated insertion and removal, along with aging, gradually diminish their elasticity, causing the clamp holes to enlarge. This results in a looser hold on the stainless steel tube, leading to overall structural instability. Furthermore, using bolts for fixing makes assembly and disassembly quite cumbersome. Therefore, this paper proposes a seedling rack for hydroponic vegetables. Utility Model Content

Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this application.

[0023] Please see Figures 1-4 The present invention proposes the following implementation scheme: a seedling rack for hydroponic vegetables, including a seedling base 1, the seedling base 1 including a bottom shell 101 and a seedling frame 103, the seedling frame 103 being disposed inside the bottom shell 101, the bottom shell 101 being disposed on a U-shaped frame 201, the bottom shell 101 being used to hold nutrient solution, and the seedling frame 103 being used to hold vegetables.

[0024] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 A limiting plate 102 is fixed on the bottom shell 101. The bottom shell 101 is set on the loop frame 201 through the limiting plate 102. The limiting plate 102 is used to support the bottom shell 101 and can rest on the loop frame 201.

[0025] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 1 and Figure 3 The seedling frame 103 is fixed with a water permeable hole 105. The seedling frame 103 is set inside the bottom shell 101 through the water permeable hole 105. The seedling frame 103 can be placed inside the bottom shell 101 through the water permeable hole 105. The bottom of the seedling frame 103 is provided with evenly distributed handrails 104. When the seedling frame 103 and the vegetables inside the seedling frame 103 are taken out, the handrails 104 can prevent the nutrient solution from being taken out at the same time.

[0026] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 3 and Figure 4 It also includes a support component 2, which is set on the seedling base 1. The support component 2 includes a herringbone frame 201, a sleeve 202, a support tube 203, and a limiting hole 204. The sleeve 202 is fixed at the corner of the herringbone frame 201. The limiting hole 204 is opened at the top and bottom of the sleeve 202. The support tube 203 is slidably connected to the sleeve 202 through the limiting hole 204.

[0027] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 3 and Figure 4 The limiting component 3 includes a cylinder 301 and a limiting rod 302. The cylinder 301 is disposed inside the sleeve 202, and the limiting rod 302 is slidably disposed inside the cylinder 301. Both ends of the limiting rod 302 are located outside the cylinder 301. The limiting component 3 also includes a positioning hole 303, which is opened on the support tube 203. An elastic plate 305 is provided on the cylinder 301 and the positioning hole 303 through a connecting component. The elastic plate 305 is used to limit the limiting rod 302.

[0028] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 3 and Figure 4 The connecting components include a spring 304, an elastic plate 305, and a locking hole 306. The elastic plate 305 is fixed on the limiting rod 302 and is located inside the cylinder 301. The elastic plate 305 is made of a material that can undergo elastic deformation, such as an elastic metal strip.

[0029] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 4 An annular base is provided between the elastic plate 305 and the spring 304. The spring 304 is fixed between the elastic plate 305 and the limiting rod 302. A locking hole 306 is opened on the cylinder 301. One end of the elastic plate 305 away from the limiting rod 302 extends into the locking hole 306. The locking hole 306 is used to limit the elastic plate 305.

[0030] When the support tube 203 needs to be removed, press the elastic plate 305 so that the elastic plate 305 returns to the inside of the cylinder 301. At this time, under the action of the spring 304, the limiting rod 302 will drive the elastic plate 305 to move inside the cylinder 301, and at the same time the limiting rod 302 moves out of the positioning hole 303.

[0031] Working principle: When installing the device, first insert the support tube 203 into the limiting hole 204, then press the limiting rod 302. The limiting rod 302 will push the elastic plate 305 to move inside the cylinder 301. At the same time, the spring 304 will be compressed and deformed until the end of the elastic plate 305 away from the limiting rod 302 moves to the position of the locking hole 306.

[0032] When the elastic plate 305 is located inside the cylinder 301, the elastic plate 305 is in a deformed state. The end of the elastic plate 305 away from the limiting rod 302 abuts against the inner wall of the cylinder 301. When the end of the elastic plate 305 away from the limiting rod 302 moves to the position of the locking hole 306, the elastic plate 305 will spring into the locking hole 306. At the same time, under the action of the spring force of the spring 304, the elastic plate 305 will be locked in the locking hole 306.

[0033] At this time, the limiting rod 302 has moved into the positioning hole 303, thereby fixing the support tube 203 and the sleeve 202. The support tube 203 cannot be pulled out from the sleeve 202. This device can stabilize the support tube 203 for a long time, avoid structural loosening caused by the aging of the sleeve 202, and is easy to disassemble and assemble.
