Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of strawberry seedling technology, specifically relating to an adaptable and adjustable strawberry seedling tray. Background Technology

[0002] Strawberry seedlings are the seedlings of strawberries, that is, the offspring seedlings propagated in elevated structures or open fields after the original seed has been verified for its production characteristics. The growth of strawberry tissue culture seedlings generally takes more than two months, and it takes about six months to propagate them into production seedlings that can be used for planting.

[0003] Traditional strawberry seedling cultivation using seedling trays has several shortcomings. The seedling tubes on these trays are mostly fixed structures, making them difficult to disassemble, replace, and clean, causing considerable inconvenience. Furthermore, the irrigation systems in traditional seedling trays are poorly designed, leading to uneven water distribution. Excessive water in some areas causes root rot, while insufficient water in others hinders growth. Moreover, excess water cannot be effectively collected and utilized, resulting in water waste.

[0004] Therefore, we propose an adaptive and adjustable strawberry seedling tray. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an adaptable and adjustable strawberry seedling tray to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, where the seedling tubes on the seedling trays are mostly fixed structures, making it inconvenient to disassemble, replace, and clean them, which brings many inconveniences to seedling operations. The irrigation system design of traditional seedling trays is not reasonable enough, and uneven water distribution is prone to occur during irrigation. Excessive water in some areas leads to root rot, while insufficient water in other areas affects growth. Moreover, excess irrigation water cannot be effectively collected and utilized, resulting in water waste.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an adaptable and adjustable strawberry seedling tray, comprising several tray bodies; The seedling tubes are numerous and can be detached and inserted into the tube slots opened on the tray; The pouring assembly is mounted on the tray. The irrigation assembly includes a square flow channel 1 and several flow channels 2 on the surface of the tray, and a flow port is provided on the seedling tube. The several flow channels 2 are connected to the flow channel 1 and the flow port. An overflow pipe is installed on the disc body and connected to the flow channel; The collection cylinder is detachably installed on one side of the disc and located directly below the outlet of the overflow pipe. The number of inserts is several, and they are fixedly installed at the four corners of the upper surface and the four corners of the lower surface of the disc body respectively; Adjustment components, consisting of several pieces, are used to engage with the corresponding inserts on the upper and lower discs. The adjusting component includes an adjusting outer cylinder and an adjusting inner rod that is slidably installed inside the adjusting outer cylinder. A plug rod is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the adjusting outer cylinder and the top end of the adjusting inner rod, and the plug rod is inserted into the plug cylinder at the corresponding position.

[0007] The above solution utilizes a tray system in conjunction with multiple detachable seedling cylinders. Damaged seedling cylinders can be easily disassembled and replaced without replacing the entire tray. The use of multiple independent trays allows for the selection of an appropriate number of trays based on the strawberry seedling specifications, maximizing vertical space utilization. An adjustable mechanism connects two trays, with an inner adjusting rod sliding within the outer adjusting cylinder and locking in place. This allows for adaptive adjustment based on seedling height, enhancing versatility. Flow channels one and two, along with a flow outlet, ensure even irrigation, preventing localized drought and waterlogging. An overflow pipe, collection cylinder, and filter screen further filter and collect excess water and fertilizer, preventing waste and allowing for recycling.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, a sealing groove is provided on the outer surface of the seedling tube, and a sealing ring is embedded in the inner wall of the sealing groove. The outer surface of the sealing ring is fitted to the inner wall of the tube's insertion port.

[0009] By adopting the above solution, the sealing ring can enhance the sealing between the seedling tube and the tube socket, prevent irrigation water from leaking out from the gap between the two, ensure that water can fully enter the seedling tube for strawberry seedlings to absorb, and at the same time avoid leakage water from damaging other parts of the tray.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, a clamping rod is fixedly installed on the side of the seedling cylinder, an operating rod is fixedly installed on the surface of the clamping rod, and an elastic clamping seat is fixedly installed on the surface of the tray opposite the clamping rod, with the clamping rod clamped onto the inner wall of the elastic clamping seat.

[0011] Using the above solution, the cooperation between the clamping rod and the elastic clamping seat can stably fix the seedling tube in the tube insertion port of the tray, preventing the seedling tube from loosening or falling off during use. The operating rod makes it convenient for operators to operate the clamping rod, making it easy to insert or remove the clamping rod into the elastic clamping seat, thereby realizing the quick installation and disassembly of the seedling tube.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, a mounting plate is fixedly installed on the side of the collecting cylinder, and a number of pins are inserted between the mounting plate and the disc body to achieve a detachable connection.

[0013] By adopting the above solution, the cooperation between the mounting plate and the pin enables the detachable connection between the collection cylinder and the tray. When the water collected in the collection cylinder reaches a certain amount or when the collection cylinder needs to be cleaned, the collection cylinder can be easily disassembled.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment, a filter screen is fitted inside the collection cylinder, and several limiting plates are fixedly installed on the side of the filter screen. Several limiting grooves are formed on the inner wall of the collection cylinder.

[0015] Using the above solution, the filter screen can filter the collected excess water, removing impurities and soil particles from the water, preventing impurities from clogging the pipes or equipment used for secondary irrigation. At the same time, it can also ensure the cleanliness of the secondary irrigation water, avoiding adverse effects on the growth of strawberry seedlings. The cooperation between the limiting plate and the limiting groove can stably fix the filter screen in the collection cylinder, preventing the filter screen from shifting or falling off during use, and also making it convenient to remove the filter screen for cleaning or replacement later.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment, an adjusting rod is slidably mounted on the top of the adjusting outer cylinder, and an adjusting shell is fixedly mounted on one side of the top of the adjusting outer cylinder opposite to the adjusting rod. One end of the adjusting rod slides through the adjusting shell and is fixedly mounted with a pull plate. A plurality of adjusting grooves are opened on one side of the adjusting inner rod, and the other end of the adjusting rod is inserted into the adjusting groove. A limiting ring is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the adjusting rod, and the limiting ring is located inside the adjusting shell, with a spring fixedly mounted between the limiting ring and the adjusting shell.

[0017] Using the above scheme, the inner adjusting rod slides within the outer adjusting cylinder, changing the overall length of the adjusting component and thus adjusting the distance between the upper and lower discs to meet the height requirements of strawberry seedlings at different growth stages. Inserting the adjusting rod into different adjusting slots allows the inner adjusting rod to be fixed in different positions, thus fixing the length of the adjusting component. The pull plate facilitates the operator to pull the adjusting rod, and the spring applies elastic force to the adjusting rod through the limiting ring, ensuring that the adjusting rod is stably inserted into the adjusting slot and preventing the length of the adjusting component from changing during use.

[0018] As a preferred embodiment, a reinforcing rib is fixedly installed between two adjacent adjusting outer cylinders.

[0019] By adopting the above solution, the reinforcing ribs can enhance the connection strength between two adjacent adjusting outer cylinders, improve the overall stability and load-bearing capacity of the adjusting components, and ensure that multiple discs can be placed stably after being stacked.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: This adaptable and adjustable strawberry seedling tray is designed to work with multiple detachable seedling tubes. When the seedling tubes are damaged, they can be easily disassembled and replaced without replacing the entire tray. Furthermore, by using multiple independent trays together, the appropriate number of trays can be selected according to the specifications of the strawberry seedlings, making full use of vertical space and effectively improving space utilization. This adaptive adjustable strawberry seedling tray connects two trays by setting an adjustment mechanism. The inner adjustment rod slides inside the outer adjustment cylinder and is locked in conjunction with the adjustment rod. This allows for adaptive adjustment according to the height of the strawberry seedlings, improving its versatility. This adaptable and adjustable strawberry seedling tray achieves uniform irrigation by setting up two flow channels and a flow outlet, avoiding localized drought and waterlogging. In addition, the overflow pipe, collection cylinder, and filter screen can filter and collect excess water and fertilizer to avoid waste, and can be recycled after filtration.
