Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of seedling raising device technology, and in particular to a watermelon seedling raising device. Background Technology
[0002] Watermelon seedling trays are an important tool in the industrialized production process of watermelon seedlings, ensuring the rapid and large-scale production of watermelon seedlings. Common materials for seedling trays include polypropylene, polystyrene, and polyvinyl chloride, and the shapes of the holes are mainly square and round.
[0003] Watermelon seedlings require a lot of water to grow. Therefore, when cultivating watermelon seedlings in seedling trays, a lot of water is usually poured into the trays to ensure that the soil in the trays is thoroughly soaked. Excess water will flow out from the drainage holes at the bottom of the seedling trays to prevent the watermelon seedlings from rotting. However, this also leads to a waste of water resources and is not conducive to water conservation and environmental protection. Utility Model Content
[0004] This invention provides a watermelon seedling raising device to address the problem that excess water leaks out from the drainage holes at the bottom of the seedling pot chamber when watering watermelon seedlings, leading to water waste and hindering water conservation and environmental protection.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a watermelon seedling raising device, including a seedling pot body, the seedling pot body having a plurality of chambers inside, and a water-saving device being provided at the bottom of the seedling pot body, the water-saving device collecting water flowing out of the chambers by setting a collection box.
[0006] The effects achieved by the above components are as follows: by setting up a collection box, the collection box can collect the water flowing out from the seepage hole at the bottom of the chamber, so that the water is not wasted. At the same time, the water in the collection box can be reused to irrigate watermelon seedlings, which helps to prevent watermelon root rot, reduce water waste, improve water resource utilization, and help achieve water conservation and environmental protection.
[0007] Preferably, the water-saving device includes a collection box, which is fitted onto the bottom of the outer surface of the seedling pot body. Extension blocks are symmetrically fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the collection box and both sides of the seedling pot body, and the same spring is fixedly installed on one side of the two extension blocks.
[0008] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: by setting a collection box at the bottom of the seedling pot body, the collection box can collect the water flowing out from the seepage hole at the bottom of the chamber. At the same time, under the action of the spring, when there is no other external force, the spring can support the seedling pot body, so that the collection box and the seedling pot body maintain a certain distance. Thus, the collection box can collect the water flowing out of the seedling pot body, and at the same time prevent the water from re-entering the chamber.
[0009] Preferably, the spring has a round rod inside, one end of which is fixedly installed at the bottom of the top extension block and slidably installed on the inner wall of the bottom extension block.
[0010] The effect achieved by the above components is that by setting up springs, the springs mainly play the role of limiting and guiding the springs, which helps to prevent the springs from bending during deformation.
[0011] Preferably, a fixing component is also provided between the seedling pot body and the collection box. The fixing component includes two rectangular rods, which are respectively fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom of the seedling pot body. Connecting blocks are symmetrically fixedly installed on both sides of the collection box. The rectangular rods are slidably installed on the inner wall of the connecting blocks, and a bolt is threaded into one side of the connecting block.
[0012] The aforementioned components achieve the following effects: By rotating the bolt, one end of the bolt abuts against one side of the rectangular rod, thus fixing the rectangular rod and the connecting block. This provides auxiliary fixation between the collection box and the seedling pot, reducing the supporting pressure on the spring and preventing the seedling pot from falling into the water-filled collection box, which could cause the watermelon seedlings to be in a waterlogged environment for an extended period, leading to root rot. Simultaneously, when the watermelon seedlings are dehydrated, releasing the bolt from the rectangular rod allows the seedling pot to move downwards. The extension block on the seedling pot compresses the spring, causing it to deform until the drainage hole at the bottom of the seedling pot is below the water level in the collection box. Then, the bolt is used to fix the rectangular rod again. At this point, the nutrient soil in the chamber absorbs water from the collection box, improving water resource utilization.
[0013] Preferably, a rubber strip is adhered to the inner wall of one side of the rectangular rod, and the bolt is located on one side of the rubber strip.
[0014] The effect achieved by the above components is that by setting a rubber strip, one side of the rectangular rod can be replaced to abut against one end of the bolt, and the friction between the bolt and the rectangular rod can be increased, making the bolt more secure in fixing the seedling pot body and the collection box.
[0015] Preferably, the collection box is made of transparent plastic.
[0016] The effect achieved by the above components is that by setting up a transparent plastic collection box, it is convenient to observe the water level inside the collection box from the outside, and thus it is convenient to adjust the distance between the seedling pot and the collection box accordingly.
[0017] Preferably, an auxiliary component is provided at the bottom of the chamber, the auxiliary component including a sponge block, the sponge block being disposed at the bottom of the chamber.
[0018] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: by setting up the sponge block, the water flowing through the nutrient soil can be filtered and the sediment can be blocked. This helps to prevent the sediment from entering the collection box through the seepage holes at the bottom of the chamber and adhering to the inner wall of the collection box, thus obstructing the observation of the water level outside the collection box.
[0019] Preferably, a rectangular frame is installed at the bottom of the chamber, and several through holes are opened at the top of the rectangular frame, with the sponge block disposed inside the rectangular frame.
[0020] The effect achieved by the above components is that by setting a rectangular frame with through holes, the sponge block can be supported and protected without hindering water seepage from the chamber. This helps to prevent watermelon seedlings and nutrient soil from excessively squeezing the sponge block and reducing its water seepage capacity.
[0021] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0022] In this invention, a collection box is installed at the bottom of the seedling pot to collect water flowing out from the drainage holes at the bottom of the chamber. This prevents the water from flowing directly onto the ground and being wasted. Furthermore, when the nutrient soil in the chamber becomes dry again, the water in the collection box can be reused to irrigate the watermelon seedlings. This helps the watermelon seedlings grow in a suitable soil environment, prevents root rot, reduces water waste, and greatly improves water resource utilization, thus contributing to water conservation and environmental protection.

[0028] Example 1, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in the figure, this embodiment discloses a watermelon seedling raising device, including a seedling pot body 1. The seedling pot body 1 has several chambers 2 inside. A water-saving device 3 is provided at the bottom of the seedling pot body 1. The water-saving device 3 collects the water flowing out of the chambers 2 by setting a collection box 31. By setting the collection box 31, the collection box 31 can collect the water flowing out of the seepage hole at the bottom of the chamber 2, so that the water is not wasted. At the same time, the water in the collection box 31 can be reused to irrigate the watermelon seedlings, which helps to prevent watermelon root rot, reduce water waste, improve water resource utilization, and help to achieve water conservation and environmental protection.
[0029] Reference Figure 2 As shown, the water-saving device 3 includes a collection box 31, which is fitted onto the bottom of the outer surface of the seedling pot body 1. Extension blocks 32 are symmetrically fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the collection box 31 and both sides of the seedling pot body 1. A single spring 33 is fixedly installed on one side of each extension block 32. By setting the collection box 31 at the bottom of the seedling pot body 1, the collection box 31 can collect water flowing out from the seepage holes at the bottom of the chamber 2. Simultaneously, under the action of the spring 33, the spring 33 can support the seedling pot body 1 when no other external force is applied. The support ensures that the collection box 31 and the seedling pot body 1 are kept at a certain distance, so that the collection box 31 can collect the water flowing out of the seedling pot body 1 and prevent the water from re-entering the chamber 2; the spring 33 is provided with a round rod 34 inside, one end of which is fixedly installed at the bottom of the top extension block 32 and slidably installed on the inner wall of the bottom extension block 32. By setting the spring 33, the spring 33 mainly plays the role of limiting and guiding the spring 33, which helps to prevent the spring 33 from bending during deformation.
[0030] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, a fixing component 4 is also provided between the seedling tray body 1 and the collection box 31. The fixing component 4 includes two rectangular rods 41, which are respectively fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom of the seedling tray body 1. Connecting blocks 42 are symmetrically fixedly installed on both sides of the collection box 31. The rectangular rods 41 are slidably installed on the inner wall of the connecting blocks 42. A bolt 43 is threaded into one side of the connecting block 42. By rotating the bolt 43, one end of the bolt 43 abuts against one side of the rectangular rod 41, thus fixing the rectangular rod 41 and the connecting block 42. This provides auxiliary fixing between the collection box 31 and the seedling tray body 1, and reduces the pressure on the spring 33. The supporting pressure helps prevent the seedling pot body 1 from falling into the water-filled collection box 31, which would cause the watermelon seedlings to be in a waterlogged environment for a long time and develop root rot. At the same time, when the watermelon seedlings are short of water, the bolt 43 is released from fixing the rectangular rod 41, pushing the seedling pot body 1 downward. The extension block 32 on the seedling pot body 1 will squeeze the spring 33, causing the spring 33 to deform until the drainage hole at the bottom of the seedling pot body 1 is below the water level in the collection box 31. Then the bolt 43 is fixed to the rectangular rod 41. At this time, the nutrient soil in the chamber 2 will absorb the water in the collection box 31, improving the utilization rate of water resources.
[0031] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a rubber strip 44 is bonded to the inner wall of one side of the rectangular rod 41, and a bolt 43 is set on one side of the rubber strip 44. By setting the rubber strip 44, it can replace one side of the rectangular rod 41 to abut against one end of the bolt 43, and increase the friction between the bolt 43 and the rectangular rod 41, so that the bolt 43 can more firmly fix the seedling pot body 1 and the collection box 31. The collection box 31 is made of transparent plastic. By setting the collection box 31, it is convenient to observe the water level inside the collection box 31 from the outside, and thus it is convenient to adjust the distance between the seedling pot body 1 and the collection box 31 accordingly.
[0032] Reference Figure 3 As shown, an auxiliary component 5 is provided at the bottom of the chamber 2. The auxiliary component 5 includes a sponge block 51. The sponge block 51 is located at the bottom of the chamber 2. By setting the sponge block 51, the water flowing through the nutrient soil can be filtered and the mud and sand can be blocked. This helps to prevent the mud and sand from entering the collection box 31 through the seepage holes at the bottom of the chamber 2 and adhering to the inner wall of the collection box 31, thus obstructing the water level observation outside the collection box 31. A rectangular frame 52 is installed at the bottom of the chamber 2. Several through holes are opened at the top of the rectangular frame 52. The sponge block 51 is located inside the rectangular frame 52. By setting the rectangular frame 52 with through holes, the sponge block 51 can be supported and protected without hindering the seepage of the chamber 2. This helps to prevent the watermelon seedlings and nutrient soil from excessively squeezing the sponge block 51 and reducing its seepage capacity.
[0033] Working principle: Rotating bolt 43 away from rectangular rod 41 allows spring 33 to push and support the seedling pot body 1, maintaining a certain distance between the collection box 31 and the seedling pot body 1. Rotating bolt 43 in the opposite direction allows one end of bolt 43 to abut against the rubber strip 44 on one side of rectangular rod 41, thus fixing the rectangular rod 41 and connecting block 42. This provides auxiliary fixation between the collection box 31 and the seedling pot body 1, reducing the supporting pressure on spring 33 and preventing the seedling pot body 1 from falling into the water-filled collection box 31, which could lead to root rot due to prolonged waterlogging of the watermelon seedlings. The collection box 31 collects water flowing out of the seedling pot body 1 during watering. When the watermelon seedlings are dehydrated, releasing bolt 43 from the rectangular rod 41 pushes the seedling pot body 1 towards... As the seedling pot moves downwards, the extension block 32 on the seedling pot body 1 compresses the spring 33, causing the spring 33 to deform until the drainage hole at the bottom of the seedling pot body 1 is below the water level in the collection box 31. Then, the rectangular rod 41 is fixed by bolts 43. At this time, the sponge block 51 and the nutrient soil in the chamber 2 will absorb the water in the collection box 31. The sponge block 51 can filter the water flowing through the nutrient soil and block the mud and sand, which helps to prevent the mud and sand from entering the collection box 31 through the drainage hole at the bottom of the chamber 2 and adhering to the inner wall of the collection box 31, thus obstructing the observation of the water level outside the collection box 31. The rectangular frame 52 with through holes can support and protect the sponge block 51 without hindering the water seepage of the chamber 2, which helps to prevent the watermelon seedlings and nutrient soil from excessively compressing the sponge block 51 and reducing the water seepage capacity of the sponge block 51.
