Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of seedling rack technology, specifically relating to a multi-layer experimental rack structure for detecting wheat ear germination. Background Technology
[0002] Wheat ear sprouting is a serious natural disaster affecting wheat production in my country, severely impacting yield and quality. Developing and creating superior resistant resources is the most fundamental and effective way to solve this problem. Seedling racks play a vital role in modern agricultural production, helping growers improve efficiency, conserve resources, and provide a better growing environment.
[0003] Existing seedling racks are poorly designed, requiring the entire large unit to be opened to retrieve seedlings, a time-consuming and labor-intensive process. Frequent opening also severely disrupts the stable environment of other seedlings within the rack. Traditional seedling racks lack automated humidity control, relying on manual, timed watering. This method struggles to ensure uniform and stable humidity, easily leading to localized areas of excessive dryness or wetness, and is also labor-intensive and inefficient. The inherent dimensions of the seedling racks and the limited space within the boxes severely restrict the number of plants that can be cultivated at a time. To obtain sufficient data, multiple batches of experiments must be repeated, significantly extending the cycle and increasing overall costs related to labor and materials. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, this utility model provides a multi-layer experimental rack structure for detecting wheat ear germination.
[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is: a multi-layer experimental rack structure for detecting wheat ear germination, including an experimental rack, a detection system, and several transparent flexible plates. The experimental rack has multiple layers, each layer of the experimental rack is provided with a support frame, and the support frame is provided with a corresponding support plate. The support plates are movably connected to support trays, and the support trays have seedling trays on them. A spray pipe is laid under the support frame, and the spray pipe is provided with atomizing nozzles. The pillars around each layer of the experimental rack have elongated openings, and the several transparent flexible plates pass through the openings and are movably connected to the experimental rack.
[0006] Furthermore, the experimental rack has four layers; each side of the experimental rack is provided with a transparent flexible plate.
[0007] Furthermore, each of the four sides of the experimental frame is provided with a groove corresponding to the opening, and the two ends of the groove are connected to the opening; the width of the groove and the opening is at least greater than the thickness of the two transparent flexible plates.
[0008] Furthermore, the transparent flexible plate has a limiting block on one side and a handle on the other side.
[0009] Furthermore, a sponge layer is provided around the opening.
[0010] Furthermore, the transparent flexible sheet is a PVC flexible sheet.
[0011] Furthermore, the support plate has guide rails on both inward sides, and the support disk has slide rails on both sides corresponding to the guide rails.
[0012] Furthermore, a main spray pipe is fixed on one side of the experimental frame, and each layer of spray pipes is connected to the main spray pipe. A valve is installed at the connection between each layer of spray pipes and the main spray pipe.
[0013] Furthermore, the monitoring system includes temperature and humidity sensors installed on each layer of the experimental rack.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] (1) In this technical solution, the spray pipes and atomizing nozzles laid under the support frame on the experimental rack have precise and uniform spray characteristics, providing a highly consistent water supply for wheat ears in each layer of seedling trays, effectively avoiding the difference in wheat ear germination caused by uneven water distribution, thereby greatly improving the accuracy and scientific nature of the wheat ear germination detection experimental results, and providing reliable data support for in-depth research on the wheat ear germination mechanism.
[0016] (2) The design of the slender openings on the four pillars of each layer and the movable connection with the transparent flexible plate ensures that the experimenters can clearly observe the germination of wheat ears while forming an effective physical barrier to prevent external dust, pests and other adverse factors from interfering with the experimental samples, thus ensuring the stability of the experimental environment. Moreover, the movable connection method gives the operator the convenience of flexibly opening the transparent flexible plate according to the experimental process, which can meet the experimental operation needs at different stages such as sample handling and environmental parameter adjustment. This makes the entire multi-layer experimental rack structure exhibit efficient, stable and flexible characteristics in wheat ear germination detection. Attached Figure Description
