[0018] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0019] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown in the figure, this utility model embodiment proposes a seedling cultivation device for citrus planting, which is used for the preliminary cultivation of citrus seedlings.

[0020] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4The citrus seedling cultivation device includes a support plate 1 and a seedling box 2 placed inside the support plate 1. The seedling box 2 has a receiving cavity 21 for containing soil and citrus seedlings. The seedling box 2 includes a hinged first shell 22 and a second shell 23, which together form the receiving cavity 21 and a through hole 24 communicating with the receiving cavity 21. The through hole 24 is located at the bottom of the seedling box 2 and is used to allow air to pass through the receiving cavity 21 and to drain excess water from the receiving cavity 21. The seedling box 2 also includes a connecting ring 3, which includes a connecting buckle 31, a locking buckle 32, and two connecting arms 33. The two ends of the connecting buckle 31 are respectively hinged to the two connecting arms 33 one-to-one. The buckle 31 and the two connecting arms 33 encircle the seedling box 2, keeping the first housing 22 and the second housing 23 in close fit. The end of the connecting arm 33 away from the connecting buckle 31 is provided with a connecting rod 34 and a locking block 35 connected in sequence. The locking buckle 32 is provided with a through hole 36 for the locking block 35 to pass through and is rotatably connected to the connecting rod 34. When the locking buckle 32 rotates, the locking block 35 is aligned or misaligned with the through hole 36. When the locking block 35 is misaligned with the through hole 36, the locking buckle 32 keeps the two connecting arms 33 in a state of tightly hugging the seedling box 2. When the locking block 35 is aligned with the through hole 36, the locking buckle can be removed from the connecting arm 33. At this time, the connecting arm 33 can be rotated to separate the connecting ring 3 from the seedling box 2.

[0021] Specifically, the operation steps for cultivating citrus seedlings using the citrus seedling cultivation device provided in this embodiment are as follows: First, close the first shell 22 and the second shell 23 and wrap the connecting ring 3 around the seedling box 2. Then, simultaneously pass the locking blocks 35 on the two connecting arms 33 through the through holes 36 on the locking buckle 32 and rotate the locking buckle 32 to misalign the through holes 36 with the locking blocks 35. At this time, soil can be placed into the seedling box 2 and the seedlings to be cultivated can be planted. The citrus seedlings are placed in the seedling box 2 on the support plate 1 for cultivation. When it is necessary to remove the citrus seedlings from the seedling box 2, first rotate the locking buckle 32 to align the locking block 35 with the through hole 36 and remove the locking buckle 32. Then rotate the connecting arm 33 to remove the connecting ring 3 from the seedling box 2. Finally, rotate the first shell 22 or the second shell 23 to open the seedling box 2, and the citrus seedlings can be poured out of the seedling box 2. The citrus seedling cultivation device provided in this embodiment uses a hinged first shell 22 and second shell 23 to form a seedling box 2 for accommodating citrus seedlings. Rotating the first shell 22 or the second shell 23 to open the seedling box 2 allows the citrus seedlings to be easily taken out. This avoids damage to the roots of the citrus seedlings when they are forcibly pulled out after being inserted into the through hole 24 during the cultivation process. This ensures that the roots of the citrus seedlings remain intact after being taken out of the seedling box 2, which is beneficial to improving the survival rate of citrus seedlings.

[0022] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the support plate 1 has a plurality of mounting holes 11 spaced apart to mate with the seedling boxes 2, and the plurality of mounting holes 11 are arranged in a matrix on the support plate 1. The mounting holes 11 on the support plate 1 are used to position the seedling boxes 2 placed on the support plate 1, so that when multiple seedling boxes 2 are placed on the support plate 1 at the same time, they are arranged neatly on the support plate 1, which facilitates the management of citrus seedlings during the cultivation process.

[0023] In detail, the support plate 1 is provided with a stepped portion 12, which surrounds the opening of the mounting hole 11 and abuts against the seedling box 2. After the seedling box 2 is placed into the mounting hole 11, it abuts against the stepped portion 12, so that the stepped portion 12 supports the support plate 1 and keeps the position of the seedling box 2 on the support plate 1 stable.

[0024] like Figure 1As shown, the support plate 1 is provided with two handles 13 spaced apart, and the two handles 13 are respectively located on opposite sides of the support plate 1. The handles 13 on both sides of the support plate 1 are used to facilitate the handling of the support plate 1, and to facilitate the movement of the support plate 1 and the seedling box 2 placed on the support plate 1 as a whole.

[0025] Please refer to Figure 3 The first housing 22 and the second housing 23 are respectively provided with annular grooves 25, which are used to accommodate the connecting ring 3. When the connecting ring 3 surrounds the first housing 22 and the second housing 23, it cooperates with the annular grooves 25, which helps to improve the stability of the connection between the connecting ring 3 and the seedling box 2 and prevents the connecting ring 3 from accidentally detaching from the seedling box 2.

[0026] In this embodiment, the first housing 22 is provided with a protruding positioning protrusion 26, and the second housing 23 is provided with a positioning hole 27 that mates with the positioning protrusion 26. When the seedling box 2 is closed, the positioning protrusion 26 and the positioning hole 27 mate to position the relative positions of the first housing 22 and the second housing 23, preventing misalignment between the first housing 22 and the second housing 23 and creating a gap between them, thus ensuring a tight fit between the first housing 22 and the second housing 23.

[0027] Please combine Figure 2 and Figure 3 The first housing 22 and the second housing 23 are each provided with a guide surface 28, which surrounds the opening of the through hole 24. The guide surface 28 on the first housing 22 and the second housing 23 guides excess water in the seedling box 2 to drain out through the through hole 24, preventing water accumulation in the seedling box 2 and causing root rot of the citrus seedlings.

[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the first housing 22 and the second housing 23 are respectively provided with handles 29, which are located on the top of the first housing 22 or the second housing 23. By pulling the handles 29, the seedling box 2 can be removed from the support plate 1, making it easy to separate the seedling box 2 from the support plate 1.

[0029] like Figure 4As shown, the locking buckle 32 is provided with two levers 37, which are located at opposite ends of the locking buckle 32. The levers 37 on both sides of the locking buckle 32 are used to operate the locking buckle 32 to rotate, so as to fix the connecting ring 3 on the seedling box 2 or remove the connecting ring 3 from the seedling box 2, thus facilitating the use of the citrus seedling cultivation device.

[0030] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
