Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of melon seedling cultivation technology, specifically relating to a melon seedling cultivation box. Background Technology

[0002] As an important economic crop, the growth status of melon seedlings directly determines their subsequent transplant survival rate, yield, and quality. To meet the precise environmental requirements of melon seedlings during germination and seedling stages, melon seedling cultivation boxes have been widely used in home gardening, greenhouse cultivation, and commercial seedling production, becoming a core piece of equipment for ensuring efficient melon seedling cultivation.

[0003] Existing melon seedling cultivation boxes typically use a box as the basic carrier, integrating core components such as a light regulation system, a watering and moisture retention system, and seedling trays. By regulating the microenvironment within the box, they provide suitable growth conditions for the melon seedlings. Among these, the seedling tray, as the core component holding the melon seedlings and cultivation substrate, directly affects the efficiency and survival rate of the transplanting process due to its structural design and ease of seedling removal. Currently, most commercially available melon seedling cultivation boxes come with seedling trays that use an integrated fixed-cell structure. The cells are filled with soil and used to cultivate the melon seedlings. Once the seedlings have grown to a suitable transplanting stage, they need to be removed from the seedling tray along with the soil around their roots for final transplanting.

[0004] However, in actual seedling cultivation, when removing seedlings with soil from the melon seedling trays, the soil-bearing cells are often designed with straight walls of equal diameter. Operators typically need to use tools to push the soil upwards from the bottom of the cells or directly pull the seedling stem upwards. When the soil is removed from the cells, it loses the constraint of the inner walls, and especially when soil moisture is not properly controlled, the soil is prone to breaking in the middle or falling apart, failing to form a complete soil ball. Furthermore, melon seedlings have a root system primarily composed of fibrous roots with fine and fragile root hairs. When the soil is dispersed, the fibrous roots are easily exposed and broken by external forces, resulting in significant root hair loss. This directly impairs the melon seedlings' absorption function, hindering the improvement of transplant survival rates and seedling cultivation efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] (1) Technical problems to be solved To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a melon seedling cultivation box. This box solves the problem that in existing technologies, when operators remove seedlings with soil from the seedling tray, they typically need to use tools to push the soil upwards from the bottom of the cells or directly pinch and pull the seedling stem upwards. When the soil is removed from the cells, it loses the constraint of the cell walls, and especially when soil moisture is not properly controlled, the soil is prone to breaking in the middle or falling apart, failing to form a complete soil ball. Furthermore, melon seedlings have a root system mainly composed of fibrous roots with fine and fragile root hairs. After the soil disperses, the fibrous roots are easily exposed and broken by external forces, resulting in a large amount of root hair loss. This directly impairs the absorption function of the melon seedlings, hindering the improvement of transplant survival rate and seedling cultivation efficiency.

[0014] (3) Beneficial effects Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This invention features a seedling-retrieving mechanism. As the arc-shaped cutting plate slides along the inner side of the cultivation pot, the plastic film is pulled, causing it to continuously move out of the groove from the outer end of the rotating rod. Finally, after the arc-shaped cutting plate rotates once and re-contacts the vertical rod, the plastic film that has moved out of the groove completely wraps the soil inside the cultivation pot, including the lower fixing ring and the non-woven fabric.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0020] This specific embodiment is a melon seedling cultivation box, the structural diagram of which is shown below. Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the device includes a box body 1. An installation plate 2 is fixedly connected to the upper inner side of the box body 1. Nursery pots 3 for cultivating melon seedlings are fixedly connected at equal intervals inside the installation plate 2. A protective cover 4 is connected to the upper side of the installation plate 2. The protective cover 4 is a transparent glass cover. The inner side of the box body 1 above the installation plate 2 is slidably connected to the lower outer side of the protective cover 4. The upper edge of the installation plate 2 abuts against the lower side of the protective cover 4. Thus, when the protective cover 4 is placed on the installation plate 2, the upper inner side of the box body 1 will restrict the edge of the protective cover 4, so that it is fixed above the installation plate 2, so as to keep the melon seedlings in the nursery pots 3 warm in winter.

[0021] The box body 1 is equipped with stacking mechanisms on its upper and lower sides. Each stacking mechanism includes threaded rods 501 fixedly connected to the four corners of the upper side of the box body 1. A sleeve 502 is provided at the outer end of each threaded rod 501, and the inner side of the sleeve 502 has an internal thread. The outer side of the threaded rod 501 is threadedly connected to the inner side of the sleeve 502. Therefore, when the sleeve 502 is rotated from the outer side of the threaded rod 501, the sleeve 502 can move relative to the threaded rod 501.

[0022] In addition, an outer limiting ring 503 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the sleeve 502, and support rods 504 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the lower side of the box 1. The lower side of the support rod 504 abuts against the upper side of the sleeve 502, and the lower outer side of the support rod 504 is slidably connected to the inner side of the outer limiting ring 503. Thus, when multiple incubators need to be stacked, the support rod 504 under one incubator can be placed into the outer limiting ring 503 above another incubator, allowing the two incubators to be stacked. Furthermore, by rotating the sleeve 502, the overall height of the threaded rod 501 and the sleeve 502 can be changed, thereby changing the spacing between the stacked incubators to adapt to different light angles in different regions, ensuring that the incubator at the bottom still receives sufficient light.

[0023] Cooperate Figures 5 to 8 As shown, the cultivation pot 3 is equipped with a seedling taking mechanism, which includes a fixing block 601 located on the upper left side of the cultivation pot 3. A vertical rod 602 is fixedly connected to the lower right side of the fixing block 601. A lower fixing ring 603 is fixedly connected to the lower side of the vertical rod 602. Non-woven fabric 604 is pasted on the inner side of the lower fixing ring 603. An upper fixing ring 605 is fixedly connected to the inside of the fixing block 601. A sliding block 606 is provided at the outer end of the upper fixing ring 605. A sliding hole is opened in the middle of the sliding block 606. The outer side of the upper fixing ring 605 is slidably connected to the inner side of the sliding hole. An arc-shaped cutting plate 607 is fixedly connected to the lower right end of the sliding block 606. The outer sides of the vertical rod 602, the lower fixing ring 603, and the arc-shaped cutting plate 607 are slidably connected to the inner side of the cultivation pot 3. The lower side of the fixing block 601 abuts against the upper side of the cultivation pot 3. The lower side of the sliding block 606 is slidably connected to the upper side of the cultivation pot 3. The lower side of the arc-shaped cutting plate 607 is slidably connected to the upper side of the lower fixing ring 603. One end of the arc-shaped cutting plate 607 is a pointed tip. Thus, when the sliding block 606 rotates along the outer side of the upper fixing ring 605, it can drive the arc-shaped cutting plate 607 to slide along the inner side of the cultivation pot 3. At the same time, the pointed tip of the arc-shaped cutting plate 607 will scrape off the soil attached to the inner side of the cultivation pot 3, preventing the moist soil from sticking to the inside of the cultivation pot 3 and being difficult to remove.

[0024] The arc-shaped cutting plate 607 has a bearing 608 located at its upper interior. A round rod 609 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the bearing 608, and a plastic film 610 is wound around the outer side of the round rod 609. The end of the plastic film 610 away from the round rod 609 is pasted to the outer side of the vertical rod 602. A groove is formed in the part of the arc-shaped cutting plate 607 away from its tip, and the bearing 608 is installed inside the arc-shaped cutting plate 607 at the upper end of the groove. The plastic film 610 is wound around the part of the round rod 609 located in the groove. As the arc-shaped cutting plate 607 slides along the inner side of the cultivation pot 3, the plastic film 610 is pulled and continuously moves out of the groove from the outer end of the rotating rod 609. Finally, after the arc-shaped cutting plate 607 rotates once and re-contacts the vertical rod 602, the plastic film 610, which has moved out of the groove, completely wraps the soil above the lower fixing ring 603 and non-woven fabric 604 inside the cultivation pot 3. Then, the plastic film 610 is moved upward, and when the vertical rod 602, lower fixing ring 603, non-woven fabric 604 and arc-shaped cutting plate 607 are pulled out of the cultivation pot 3, the soil and melon seedlings in the cultivation pot 3 can be completely removed. Then, while removing the plastic film 610 from the outer end of the soil, a biodegradable paper bag is used to wrap the soil, so that the melon seedlings can be completely removed and ready for transplanting. Finally, the rod 609 is rotated to re-roll the plastic film 610 and put it back into the cultivation pot 3 for reuse.

[0025] Working principle: When removing and transplanting melon seedlings from the cultivation box, the arc-shaped cutting plate 607 slides around the inside of the cultivation pot 3, moving from one end of the vertical rod 602 to the other. Then, the plastic film 610, which is removed from the outer end of the round rod 609 inside the arc-shaped cutting plate 607, completely wraps the soil above the lower fixing ring 603 and non-woven fabric 604 inside the cultivation pot 3. Then, the plastic film 610 is moved up, and when the vertical rod 602, lower fixing ring 603, non-woven fabric 604 and arc-shaped cutting plate 607 are pulled out of the cultivation pot 3, the soil and melon seedlings in the cultivation pot 3 can be completely removed. Then, while removing the plastic film 610 from the soil, a biodegradable paper bag is used to wrap the soil for temporary storage, completing the removal of the melon seedlings from the cultivation box.

[0026] All technical features in this embodiment can be freely combined according to actual needs.

[0027] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present 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 the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
