Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of plant cultivation equipment technology, and in particular to a modular multi-layer frame for plant cultivation. Background Technology

[0002] With the acceleration of urbanization and people's pursuit of quality of life, the demand for planting plants in limited space is growing. Modular multi-layer planting racks have become widely used equipment in urban agriculture, home gardening and scientific research cultivation because they can significantly improve space utilization. In order to further improve planting efficiency and automation, modern planting racks usually integrate automatic watering and wastewater recycling systems.

[0003] In planting racks that integrate wastewater recycling, excess water and nutrient solution after irrigation drip through the rack and are collected in a wastewater tank at the bottom. To facilitate users in emptying, replacing, or disposing of the recycled liquid, the wastewater tank is usually designed as a movable structure, for example, by installing casters at its bottom. While this design provides great convenience when moving the wastewater tank, it also brings a technical defect that urgently needs to be addressed.

[0004] Specifically, wastewater tanks with pulleys have poor stability when placed in the work area. During daily use, slight touches, uneven ground, or minor vibrations of the equipment itself can cause the wastewater tank to slide or shift position unexpectedly. Once the wastewater tank deviates from its precise water-collecting position under the frame, subsequent dripping wastewater cannot be effectively collected and flows directly onto the ground, wasting water resources, polluting the surrounding environment, and causing inconvenience and safety hazards to users. Existing technologies often overlook the balance between ease of movement and operational stability. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a modular multi-layer frame for plant cultivation, which aims to improve the problem that the automatic watering and wastewater collection functions of existing plant cultivation frames are usually separated, and that the movable wastewater tank lacks a stable and reliable fixing structure.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A modular multi-layer frame for plant cultivation includes at least one layer of perforated planting frame stacked on top of each other by support rods, and a collection mechanism disposed below the bottom perforated planting frame. The collection mechanism includes a wastewater tank, a fixed plate, a support column, a clamping block, a pin, and a spring; The fixing plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the multi-hole planting rack, providing an installation base for other components of the collection mechanism. The support column is vertically fixed to one side of the fixing plate. The clamping block is rotatably connected to the support column through a pin. The two ends of the spring abut against the fixing plate and the clamping block respectively, and drive the clamping block to rotate through its elastic force, thereby forming a stable clamping of the wastewater tank.

[0007] Preferably, the modular multi-layer frame also includes an automatic watering mechanism, which includes a water bucket, a water pump, a water supply pipe, and a nozzle. The water pump is located inside the water bucket, and its outlet is connected to the water supply pipe. The end of the water supply pipe is connected to the nozzle, and the nozzle is located above the porous planting frame.

[0008] Preferably, the automatic watering mechanism further includes a fixing block, and the water supply pipe is fixed to the bottom of the perforated planting frame through the fixing block.

[0009] Preferably, the bottom of the wastewater tank is equipped with pulleys.

[0010] Preferably, the two ends of the spring abut against the fixing plate and the clamping block, respectively.

[0011] Preferably, the clamping block has an arc-shaped clamping surface for abutting against the side wall of the wastewater tank, so as to increase the contact area and improve the stability of clamping.

[0012] Preferably, the porous planting rack and the support rod are detachably connected, allowing users to freely combine the number of rack layers according to their needs.

[0013] Preferably, the fixing plate is an integrally formed plate structure to improve its structural strength and installation accuracy.

[0014] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: 1. In this utility model, by setting a clamping mechanism consisting of a support column, clamping block, pin shaft and spring connected to the fixing plate, the problem of unstable position and easy accidental shaking or displacement of wastewater tanks with pulleys in the prior art is solved, and the technical effect of reliably clamping and fixing the wastewater tank is achieved, taking into account both the convenience of movement and the stability of operation.

[0015] 2. In this utility model, by integrating the multi-hole planting rack, automatic watering mechanism and wastewater collection mechanism into one integrated design, the problems of cumbersome manual watering, water waste and disorderly wastewater discharge leading to environmental pollution in the existing planting methods are solved. It achieves the comprehensive technical effect of automatic irrigation, water conservation and environmental cleanliness, making the entire planting device compact and functional.

[0018] 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.

[0019] Reference Figures 1-4 An embodiment of this utility model is provided: a modular multi-layer frame for plant cultivation, including a multi-hole planting frame 1 stacked on top of each other by support rods 2, the multi-layer multi-hole planting frame 1 and the support rods 2 are detachably connected, and an automatic watering mechanism 3 and a collection mechanism 4 are provided below the bottom multi-hole planting frame 1. The collection mechanism 4 includes a wastewater tank 401 and a clamping device for holding and fixing the wastewater tank 401. The bottom of the wastewater tank 401 is equipped with casters for easy movement. All components of the clamping device are mounted on a fixed plate 402. The fixed plate 402 is an integrally formed plate structure and is fixedly connected to the bottom of the perforated planting rack 1, providing a stable mounting reference for the clamping device. The clamping device includes a support column 403, which is vertically fixed to one side of the fixed plate 402. A clamping block 405 is rotatably connected to the support column 403 via a pin 404. 03. A spring 406 is also connected between the fixed plate 402 and the clamping block 405. The two ends of the spring 406 abut against the fixed plate 402 and the clamping block 405 respectively. Under the elastic force of the spring 406, the clamping block 405 always applies a stable clamping force to the side wall of the wastewater tank 401. The clamping block 405 has an arc-shaped clamping surface for abutting against the side wall of the wastewater tank 401, which increases the contact area and ensures the stability of clamping. Thus, the wastewater tank 401 with pulleys is firmly fixed in the preset working position. The automatic watering mechanism 3 includes a water tank 301 as a water source container, a water pump 302 installed inside the water tank 301, and the outlet of the water pump 302 connected to the inlet of the water supply pipe 303. The end of the water supply pipe 303 is connected to a nozzle 305. In the assembled state, the water supply pipe 303 is fixed to the bottom of the perforated planting rack 1 by a fixing block 304. This connection method ensures that the water supply pipe is stably laid out along the multi-layer rack and will not shake or fall off. The nozzle 305 is located above the perforated planting rack 1, and its position corresponds exactly to the plants that need to be watered. When the water pump 302 is started, the water is accurately delivered to the nozzle 305 through the water supply pipe 303 and sprayed out, thus forming a complete automated irrigation flow path integrated into the rack itself. To achieve modular assembly and flexible disassembly of the frame, the perforated planting rack 1 and the support rod 2 are detachably connected. For example, the end of the support rod 2 can be inserted into the corresponding insertion hole of the perforated planting rack 1, or it can be quickly fixed and separated through a snap-fit ​​structure. To facilitate the movement of the wastewater tank 401 for wastewater dumping and cleaning, multiple pulleys are fixedly connected to the bottom of the wastewater tank 401. To improve its overall structural strength and installation accuracy, the fixing plate 402 is designed as a one-piece molded plate structure. To make the structure more compact... It provides stable elastic force, with spring 406 abutting between fixed plate 402 and clamping block 405. In order to increase the contact area between clamping block 405 and wastewater tank 401 to improve clamping stability, the side of clamping block 405 that contacts wastewater tank 401 is constructed as an arc-shaped clamping surface for abutting against the side wall of wastewater tank 401. In order to ensure the stability of water pipe 303 along the frame, automatic watering mechanism 3 also includes fixed block 304. Water pipe 303 is fastened to the bottom of porous planting rack 1 by fixed block 304.

[0020] Working principle: When automatic irrigation of plants is required, the water pump 302 installed in the water tank 301 is activated. The water pump 302 draws water out of the water tank 301, and the water flows upward through the water pipe 303 which is fixed to the fixing block 304 at the bottom of the porous planting rack 1. Finally, it reaches the nozzle 305 located above the porous planting rack 1 and is evenly sprayed onto the plants by the nozzle 305, completing the automatic watering process. During or after watering, excess water will seep through the porous planting rack 1 and drip down into the wastewater tank 401 of the collection mechanism 4 located at the bottom of the rack, thus achieving effective collection of wastewater. At this time, the clamping device in the collection mechanism 4 plays a role. The support column 403 fixed on the fixed plate 402 provides support for the clamping device. Under the elastic force of the spring 406, the clamping block 405 always applies a stable clamping force to the side wall of the wastewater tank 401. Even if the bottom of the wastewater tank 401 is equipped with pulleys, it can be firmly fixed in place, thereby solving the problem that the movable wastewater tank is prone to accidental sliding during operation.
