Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of aeroponic equipment technology, specifically relating to an aeroponic plant planting machine. Background Technology

[0002] Existing aeroponic cultivation equipment has many limitations in practical applications. Among them, uneven distribution of atomized nutrient solution is a prominent problem. The atomization structure of traditional equipment is mostly single or fixed, which makes it easy for nutrient solution to accumulate in local areas of the root system. Roots far from the atomization area cannot obtain sufficient nutrition, resulting in poor plant growth uniformity. At the same time, the root environment is not well regulated. If the high humidity generated during the atomization process cannot be relieved in time, it can easily lead to root hypoxia and diseases, resulting in a high rate of root rot and seriously affecting plant survival and growth.

[0003] In addition, the existing equipment's lighting system is not well matched with the plant's growth needs. Most of the equipment's lighting mechanism is in a fixed position and has a single spectrum, making it impossible to dynamically adjust the lighting parameters according to different growth stages of the plant. This results in low photosynthetic efficiency, making the plant prone to problems such as excessive growth and yellowing leaves, which invisibly limits the promotion and application of aeroponic technology. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a mist-culture plant growing machine, which aims to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] 1) When supplying nutrient solution, the aeroponic plant planting machine of this utility model achieves nutrient solution distribution through the reasonable layout of the atomizing mechanism in the planting box and the three-way water outlet of the replenishment mechanism. This ensures that the nutrient solution produced by the atomizer evenly covers the root cavity, avoids local accumulation, and allows all roots to fully contact the nutrients, significantly improving the uniformity of plant growth.

[0023] Example

[0024] Please see Figures 1-5A hydroponic plant growing machine includes a growing box 100. An L-shaped connector 110 is integrally and fixedly connected inside the growing box 100. A liquid replenishment mechanism 200 is fixedly installed on one side of the connector 110. A submersible pump 210 of the liquid replenishment mechanism 200 is installed inside the growing box 100. An atomizing mechanism 300 is also installed inside the growing box 100. The atomizing mechanism 300 includes at least one atomizer 310. A box cover 120 is provided on the top of the growing box 100. Multiple root receiving cavities 121 communicating with the interior of the growing box 100 are formed on the surface of the box cover 120. The root system housing 121 is equipped with a humidity sensor and an oxygen sensor. A plug hole 122 is provided on one side of the root system housing 121 and is opened in the box cover 120. A plug rod 123 for installing a light sensor is inserted into the plug hole 122. An air inlet 124 for the blower exhaust pipe to pass through is also provided on the surface of the box cover 120. A telescopic rod 125 is provided at the notch on one side of the box cover 120 and is inserted into the plug seat 110. A spectrum adjustable lighting mechanism 400 is installed on the top of the telescopic rod 125. A control mechanism 500 is installed on the front of the planting box 100.

[0025] Specifically, during aeroponic cultivation, the root-containing cavity 121 on the cover 120 provides growth space for the plant roots. After planting, the plant roots fall into the planting box 100 through the root-containing cavity 121. The submersible pump 210 of the liquid replenishment mechanism 200 delivers nutrient solution to the atomizing mechanism 300. The atomized nutrient solution generated by the atomizer 310 directly acts on the roots in the root-containing cavity 121. Meanwhile, the light sensor on the plug rod 123 monitors the light near the plant leaves in real time, while the humidity sensor and oxygen sensor monitor the root environment. After the data is transmitted to the control mechanism 500, the controller can adjust the submersible pump 210, the atomizer 310, and the lighting mechanism 400 on the top of the telescopic rod 125. Then, in conjunction with the air inlet 124 of the cover 120, airflow is introduced to optimize the root environment, achieving precise control of the aeroponic process and ensuring efficient plant growth.

[0026] In this embodiment: support feet 130 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the planting box 100, water level scale line 140 is provided on the front of the planting box 100, and drainage port 150 is provided on the back of the planting box 100, with a sealing plug inside the drainage port 150.

[0027] Specifically, the support feet 130 at the bottom of the planting box 100 can raise the planting box 100 to avoid the bottom from directly contacting the ground and getting damp or worn. The water level scale 140 on the front can intuitively display the remaining nutrient solution in the planting box 100, making it convenient for users to replenish it in time. The liquid level can be monitored without opening the box. When it is necessary to change the nutrient solution or clean the box, the drain port 150 on the back can be pulled out to quickly drain the water, reducing the impact of residual liquid on the next planting.

[0028] In this embodiment, the replenishment mechanism 200 also includes a water supply tank connected to the water inlet of the submersible pump 210, and the water outlet of the submersible pump 210 is connected to a three-way water outlet 220.

[0029] Specifically, when the plant needs to be supplemented with nutrient solution, the submersible pump 210 starts and the nutrient solution in the water supply tank enters the pump body from the inlet end. It is then diverted through the three-way outlet 220 at the outlet end, so that the nutrient solution can flow evenly and quickly into the planting box 100. This ensures that the liquid supply of each atomizer 310 is balanced, and that the atomizers 310 in different positions can work stably, ensuring that the nutrient solution supply to each area in the root system receiving cavity 121 is consistent.

[0030] In this embodiment, the atomizing mechanism 300 also includes a fixing box 320 fixedly installed at the bottom of the planting box 100. The body of the atomizer 310 is placed inside the fixing box 320, and a heat dissipation groove 321 is provided at the bottom of the fixing box 320.

[0031] Specifically, when the atomizing mechanism 300 is working, the fixing box 320 securely installs the atomizer 310 body at the bottom of the planting box 100 to prevent positional displacement caused by vibration during atomization, ensuring that the atomization direction is always aligned with the root receiving cavity 121. The heat dissipation groove 321 at the bottom of the fixing box 320 can dissipate the heat generated by the atomizer 310 in a timely manner, avoiding high temperature from affecting the service life and atomization effect of the atomizer 310, ensuring the continuous stability of the atomization process, and providing uniform and continuous nutrient solution droplets to the roots.

[0032] In this embodiment, the lighting mechanism 400 includes a lamp body 410 rotatably mounted on the top of the telescopic rod 125, and the lamp body 410 is equipped with a spectrum-adjustable LED lamp group 420 and an LED driver module.

[0033] Specifically, when the lighting mechanism 400 is in use, the telescopic rod 125 can adjust the height of the lamp body 410 according to the plant's growth height. The rotating structure of the lamp body 410 can use a damping hinge to adjust the light angle, ensuring that the light accurately covers the plant leaves. Under the control of the LED driver module, the spectrum-adjustable LED lamp group 420 inside the lamp body 410 can switch between different spectra such as red light and blue light to meet the light needs of different stages of plant growth, such as seedling stage and growth stage, improve photosynthetic efficiency, and promote healthy plant growth.

[0034] In this embodiment: the control mechanism 500 includes a touch display controller 510 fixedly installed on the front of the planting box 100, and the touch display controller 510 also integrates a microcontroller controller.

[0035] Specifically, when the control mechanism 500 is running, the touch display controller 510 on the front of the planting box 100 serves as the operating interface, making it convenient for users to set planting parameters. The integrated microcontroller inside serves as the core processing unit, receiving environmental data transmitted from various sensors. When the humidity, oxygen concentration, or light intensity in the root area deviates from the preset value, the microcontroller will automatically issue instructions to achieve precise control of electrical equipment such as the submersible pump 210, atomizer 310, and lamp 410, ensuring a stable planting environment.

[0036] In this embodiment: the humidity sensor and the oxygen sensor are both electrically connected to the touch display controller 510. The touch display controller 510 is electrically connected to the submersible pump 210, the atomizer 310, the lamp body 410 and the LED driver module. The touch display controller 510 is also electrically connected to the power interface 160 on the back of the planting box 100.

[0037] Specifically, after the equipment is powered on, the power interface 160 supplies power to the electrical equipment inside the planter. The humidity sensor and oxygen sensor collect environmental data in the root system cavity 121 in real time and transmit the signals to the touch display controller 510. According to the preset program, when the humidity is lower than the threshold, the controller starts the submersible pump 210 and the atomizer 310 to increase the atomization amount. When the light is insufficient, the brightness and spectrum of the lamp body 410 are adjusted. At the same time, the controller displays the working status of each component in real time. Users can intervene through touch operation to realize the combination of automatic control and manual adjustment, thereby improving the practicality and reliability of the planter.

[0038] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the 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 this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
