The support seat with a truncated quadrangular structure in the support box can prevent water accumulation in the roots of the tender shoots. Excessive irrigation water will pass down through the water outlet at the bottom of the support box through the hollow bottom plate and be stored in the base. 3. In this device, the outer support box is fixed to the upper frame by a limiting rod engaging with the limiting groove. The upper frame and the connected lower frame are fitted onto the support column by a locking block. All parts of the device can be disassembled and assembled. The outer support box can be removed separately to fill with substrate and insert tender shoots. If a tender shoot in a certain outer support box has a problem, it can be removed and treated separately without affecting the overall device. At the same time, the liquid inlet extends from the lower frame and passes through the notch in the upper shell, so the nutrient solution can be added without disassembling the upper shell.

The outer surface of the upper baffle 6 and the inner wall of the square through hole of the upper housing 4 are fixed by friction. like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 9 As shown, when using this device to propagate chayote shoots by cuttings, the device is first assembled. The four support columns 2 are connected to the pre-drilled threaded holes on the upper surface of the base 1 via the bottom threaded structure, forming a rectangular distribution and the basic support frame of the device. The locking blocks 9 on the outer surfaces of the lower frame 7 and the connected upper frame 8 are aligned with the support columns 2, and the circular holes on the surface of the locking blocks 9 are fitted onto the outer surfaces of the support columns 2 until the lower frame 7 is horizontally placed above the base 1. The circular through holes on the surface of the upper shell 4 are then aligned with the support columns 2, and the support columns 2 are fitted from top to bottom. The outer surface is moved until the lower surface of the upper housing 4 is in contact with the upper surface of the outer protrusion 3 of the base 1. At this time, the square notch on the side surface of the upper housing 4 corresponds to the position of the liquid inlet groove 13 of the lower frame 7. One end of the liquid inlet groove 13 extends out from the square notch. The fixing rod 5 is connected to the threaded hole on the upper surface of the support column 2 to complete the installation and fixing of the upper housing 4.

The connecting groove 12 is connected to all the liquid storage tanks 11. The liquid storage tanks 11 and the connecting groove 12 form a grid structure on the upper surface of the base plate 10. The end of the connecting groove 12 is connected to the liquid inlet groove 13. The liquid inlet groove 13 is a box structure with an open upper surface. The liquid inlet groove 13 is embedded and fixed on the surface of the lower frame 7. The end of the liquid inlet groove 13 away from the connecting groove 12 extends out from a square notch provided on the side surface of the upper shell 4. like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, during the assembly and installation of the device, as the locking block 9 on the outer surface of the lower frame 7 engages with the support column 2, the bottom plate 10 on the inner wall of the lower frame 7 aligns with the opening of the lower base 1. The liquid storage tank 11 on the upper surface of the bottom plate 10 remains connected to the connecting groove 12. During the cutting growth process, nutrient solution for chayote cuttings is prepared, and the nutrient solution is poured into the liquid inlet 13 from one end of the square notch on the side surface of the upper shell 4. Nutrient solution flows into connecting tank 12 along inlet tank 13, and finally enters each storage tank 11 through connecting tank 12. Nutrient solution is transported upward to substrate of outer box 16 through capillary tube 18 of support seat 17, realizing continuous supply of nutrient solution. Nutrient solution can be added directly to inlet tank 13 when replenishing, without disassembling upper shell 4.
[0025] The upper insertion structure includes an upper frame 8, which is a hollow square frame structure. The inner wall of the upper frame 8 is divided into a square grid structure by a bracket. Each square grid of the upper frame 8 has a limiting groove 14 fixedly installed on its inner wall. The surface of the limiting groove 14 is provided with a circular through hole. The inner wall of the limiting groove 14 engages and fixes a limiting rod 15. The limiting rod 15 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the supporting outer box 16. The supporting outer box 16 is a square box with an open upper surface. A supporting seat 17 is embedded and fixed on the bottom surface of the supporting outer box 16. The support 17 is a truncated pyramid structure. The support 17 is a hollow structure with an open lower surface. A circular water inlet is provided around the bottom of the support 17. A square groove is provided on the upper surface of the support 17. A capillary tube 18 is fixed through the surface of the support 17. The lower end of the capillary tube 18 is inserted into the liquid storage tank 11. The lower frame 7 and the upper frame 8 are fixedly connected by a column. Each liquid storage tank 11 provided at the lower frame 7 is aligned with the support 16 and the support 17 provided at the upper frame 8. like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 10 As shown, after the upper frame 8 is installed and before the upper shell 4 is installed, the device can be used for the propagation of chayote shoots. Propagation substrate is filled into each support box 16, with the substrate filling height covering the square groove on the upper surface of the support seat 17. After processing, the chayote shoots are inserted into the propagation substrate inside the support box 16. The limiting rod 15 on the outer surface of the support box 16 is aligned with the limiting groove 14 on the inner wall of the square grid of the upper frame 8, so that the limiting rod 15 engages in the circular through hole of the limiting groove 14, thus supporting the outer box. With the 16 fixed, the support 17 at the bottom of the outer box 16 is aligned with the liquid storage tank 11 below, and the lower end of the capillary tube 18 on the surface of the support 17 can be inserted into the liquid storage tank 11. During the cutting process, the upper baffle 6 on the surface of the upper shell 4 can be rotated to water the chayote shoots. During the watering process, excess water will flow along the quadrangular prism structure of the support 17 to the water outlet at the bottom of the outer box 16, and flow downward from the water outlet, eventually passing through the hollow bottom plate 10 and entering the base 1 for temporary storage.
[0026] Working principle: When using this chayote shoot cutting propagation box, the upper shell 4 is installed above the base 1 via the support column 2. The transparent upper shell 4 can provide shielding and protection for the chayote shoots and allow for observation of their growth. The perforated upper baffle 6 ensures air circulation and watering. The chayote shoots are inserted into the propagation substrate in the outer support box 16. The outer support box 16 is inserted into the limiting groove 14 via the limiting rod 15, thus achieving the installation between the outer support box 16 and the upper frame 8. The capillary tube 18 of the support seat 17 at the bottom of the outer support box 16 is inserted into the liquid storage tank 11, and the nutrient solution is transported to the substrate through capillary action for the shoots to absorb. The liquid inlet 13 extends out of the upper shell 4. By injecting nutrient solution into the liquid inlet 13, the nutrient solution enters the connecting groove 12 along the liquid inlet 13 and finally enters each liquid storage tank 11, achieving a continuous supply of nutrient solution and increasing the overall practicality.
