Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of Cornus officinalis planting technology, and in particular to a Cornus officinalis seedling rack. Background Technology
[0002] Cornus officinalis is a commonly used traditional Chinese medicine. It is the dried, mature fruit pulp of the Cornus officinalis plant (family Cornaceae). It has the effects of tonifying the liver and kidneys, and astringing and consolidating. It is mainly distributed in Yunnan, Shanxi, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui, Jiangxi, Shandong, Henan, Hunan, Sichuan, Shaanxi, and Gansu provinces. Traditional methods of propagating Cornus officinalis mainly include seed cultivation, grafting, transplanting, and field management. During the seed cultivation period, due to unstable temperature and light conditions, coupled with the hard seed coat containing high levels of germination inhibitors, germination is slow. Therefore, more and more growers are using seedling racks in greenhouses to soak the Cornus officinalis seeds before seed cultivation to ensure a higher germination rate and faster seedling growth.
[0003] For example, the existing patent document CN218218541U discloses an "intelligent seedling rack for planting Cornus officinalis," which includes a manure soaking component consisting of a soaking tank, baffles, a seed placement basket, and a lifting support rod. This component allows for soaking Cornus officinalis seeds in manure during the early stages of seed cultivation to facilitate better seed germination. However, this technical solution requires nursery workers to repeatedly and manually place and remove seeds from the seed placement basket before sowing and seedling cultivation. This operation is cumbersome, time-consuming, and labor-intensive, reducing the soaking efficiency of the Cornus officinalis seeds and the subsequent seedling cultivation efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the technical problem that existing technologies require nursery workers to repeatedly and manually place and retrieve seeds from a seed basket before sowing and seedling cultivation, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive and reduces the efficiency of seed soaking and subsequent seedling cultivation, this utility model provides the following technical solution.
[0005] This utility model discloses a Cornus officinalis seedling rack, comprising several fixed columns and several seedling frames arranged vertically and vertically connected to the fixed columns. The seedling frames are provided with several interconnected soaking chambers side by side. At least one soaking chamber is connected to a liquid inlet pipe, and at least one soaking chamber is connected to a liquid outlet pipe at its lower end. A seedling basket is placed inside each seedling chamber. The seedling basket includes a basket body and several mesh holes located at the lower end of the basket body that are connected to the soaking chamber.
[0006] As a further technical solution, a through hole is provided between adjacent soaking chambers, and a drain hole is provided at the lower end of the soaking chamber.
[0007] As a further technical solution, the main drain pipe includes a plurality of drain branch pipes communicating with the drain hole and a drain connection port located at the lower end of the main drain pipe.
[0008] As a further technical solution, the drain pipe is inclined.
[0009] As a further technical solution, the main liquid inlet includes a liquid inlet connection port connected to an external water pump and several vertically distributed liquid inlet branches communicating with the soaking chamber.
[0010] As a further technical solution, handles are provided on both sides of the basket.
[0011] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: When soaking and cultivating Cornus officinalis seeds, the seeds are simply placed in a seedling basket, which is then placed into the soaking chamber. The soaking liquid is then introduced into each soaking chamber through the inlet pipe, eliminating the need for repeated manual handling of the seeds and improving the soaking efficiency. Furthermore, after soaking, the soaking liquid can be completely drained by opening the drain pipe, after which the seeds in the seedling basket can be directly covered with soil and fertilized for seedling cultivation. This reduces operational steps and improves the subsequent seedling cultivation efficiency of Cornus officinalis seeds. Attached Figure Description

Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.
[0015] like Figure 1 As shown, this utility model discloses a Cornus officinalis seedling rack, comprising several fixed posts 1 and several seedling frames 2 connected to the fixed posts 1 and distributed vertically. In this embodiment, the lower end of the fixed posts 1 is provided with an anti-slip pad, and there are four fixed posts 1 arranged in a quadrilateral shape. There are also four seedling frames 2, evenly distributed along the vertical direction of the fixed posts 1. Of course, the number of seedling frames 2 is not particularly limited, and other numbers of seedling frames 2 are also possible.
[0016] The seedling frame 2 and the fixed column 1 can be fixedly connected by bolts or pins. Of course, the seedling frame 2 and the fixed column 1 can also be detached to facilitate the adjustment of the height distance between two adjacent seedling frames 2, and to facilitate the cultivation of Cornus officinalis seedlings of different heights.
[0017] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the seedling frame 2 has three interconnected soaking chambers 201 arranged side by side. The height of each soaking chamber 201 is 5-10 cm, and the length and width of the soaking chambers 201 are not limited. The soaking chambers 201 are used to soak the seeds of Cornus officinalis in a soaking solution to facilitate successful germination. The soaking solution consists of bleaching powder and water. The soaking volume is 15 g of bleaching powder and 5 L of water per kilogram of seeds. After soaking for 3 days, the soaking solution is drained, and the seeds are ready for seedling treatment.
[0018] In a preferred embodiment, a liquid inlet main pipe 4 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixed column 1, and the soaking chamber 201 near the liquid inlet main pipe 4 is connected to the liquid inlet main pipe 4. After bleaching powder and water are mixed in a water tank, an external water pump is connected to the water tank and the liquid inlet main pipe 4, so that the soaking solution made of bleaching powder and water can enter each soaking chamber 201 from the liquid inlet main pipe 4. At this time, the liquid inlet main pipe 4 includes a liquid inlet connection port 401 connected to the external water pump, and also includes multiple vertically distributed liquid inlet branch pipes 402 that communicate with the soaking chambers 201. The liquid inlet branch pipes 402 are equipped with water valve switches to control the amount of soaking solution entering the soaking chambers 201. At the same time, through holes 202 are provided between adjacent soaking chambers 201. The through holes 202 are located at the bottom of the soaking chambers 201, and the soaking solution in the liquid inlet branch pipes 402 can enter all soaking chambers 201 of the same seedling frame 2 from one soaking chamber 201.
[0019] In a preferred embodiment, at least one soaking chamber 201 is connected to a drain pipe 5 at its lower end, which is used to drain the waste liquid from the multiple soaking chambers 201. The lower end of each soaking chamber 201 is provided with a drain hole 203. After the Cornus officinalis seeds are soaked for 3 days, the waste liquid is discharged from the drain hole 203. At this time, the drain pipe 5 includes several drain branches 502 connected to the drain holes 203, each drain branch 502 corresponding to one drain hole 203. The lower end of the drain pipe 5 is provided with a drain connection port 501, which connects to an external wastewater tank. It should be noted that the drain branches 502 are inclined to facilitate the discharge of waste liquid from the soaking chambers 201.
[0020] Of course, the inlet pipe 4 and the outlet pipe 5 are not only used for the entry and exit of the soaking solution, but also for watering operations during seedling cultivation.
[0021] In a preferred embodiment, each seedling chamber 201 contains a seedling basket 3. The seedling basket 3 includes a basket body 301 made of corrosion-resistant PE material, and has handles 303 on both sides for easy lifting. The lower end of the basket body 301 has several mesh openings 302 communicating with the soaking chamber 201. The mesh openings 302 allow liquid to pass through only, preventing the seeds of Cornus officinalis from passing through. The soaking solution in the soaking chamber 201 enters the basket body 301 through the mesh openings 302 and soaks the seeds. After soaking for 3 days, the waste liquid in the soaking chamber 201 is drained, and then the seeds in the basket body 301 can be directly covered with soil and fertilized.
[0022] In use, the seedling basket 3 is first placed into the soaking chamber 201, and the seeds are then placed into the seedling basket 3. Next, the liquid inlet main pipe 4 is opened and connected to an external water pump and soaking solution, allowing the soaking solution to enter the soaking chamber 201 of each seedling frame 2. After all the soaking chambers 201 in each seedling frame 2 have reached a certain height, the liquid inlet branch pipe 402 is closed. After soaking for 3 days, the drain branch pipe 502 is opened to drain the waste liquid from all the soaking chambers 201. After draining, the seeds in the basket 301 are covered with soil and fertilized.
[0023] The preferred embodiments and examples of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments and examples. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes or equivalent substitutions can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, and all embodiments falling within the scope of the claims of this application are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
