Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of seed storage technology, specifically a moisture-proof device for Xiangzao red eggplant seeds. Background Technology

[0002] Xiangzao Red Eggplant is a superior eggplant variety widely cultivated in southern my country, especially in Hunan Province. It is favored by growers and consumers for its early maturity, high yield, vibrant fruit color, and excellent quality. The quality of its seeds directly affects the germination rate, yield, and marketability of subsequent cultivation, making it a crucial link in ensuring the stable development of the industry. During the interval between harvest and sowing, seeds need to undergo a storage process of several weeks to several months. Humidity is one of the core environmental factors affecting seed vigor. Excessive air humidity causes seeds to absorb water, leading to increased respiration, accelerated consumption of nutrients, and even mold growth, resulting in decreased germination rate, mold growth, and necrosis, severely impacting the seed's utilization value. Currently, common moisture-proofing measures in seed storage include using sealed containers to isolate external moisture and adding desiccants to absorb internal moisture. These methods have played a positive role in conventional seed storage. However, due to their physiological characteristics, Xiangzao Red Eggplant seeds are more sensitive to the humidity of the storage environment, requiring more precise and suitable moisture-proofing devices to meet their requirements for a low-humidity environment, effectively maintaining seed germination rate and vigor, and ensuring the seed's value for cultivation.

[0003] Currently, existing moisture-proof devices mostly use desiccants to absorb moisture from the air inside the container to achieve moisture protection. However, with long-term use, it is difficult for staff to visually judge the real-time status of the desiccant, making it difficult to accurately grasp the best time to replace it, which in turn affects the moisture-proof effect of the red eggplant seeds. Therefore, we propose the Xiangzao Red Eggplant Seed Moisture-proof Device. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a moisture-proof device for Xiangzao red eggplant seeds, in order to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that existing moisture-proof devices mostly use desiccants to absorb moisture in the air inside the container to achieve moisture-proofing. However, in long-term use, it is difficult for staff to intuitively judge the real-time status of the desiccant, making it difficult to accurately grasp the best time to replace it, thus affecting the moisture-proofing effect of red eggplant seeds.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a moisture-proof device for Xiangzao red eggplant seeds, comprising a sealed container, a fixing ring fixedly installed on the outer surface of the sealed container, a threaded groove provided on the outer surface of the fixing ring, and a sealing cover threadedly installed on the outer surface of the threaded groove, the sealing cover being located directly above the sealed container, a moisture-proof mechanism installed at the bottom of the sealing cover, and the moisture-proof mechanism being located inside the sealed container and in contact with it, a limiting groove being opened at the top of the sealed container, and a limiting block being movably installed inside the limiting groove, and a first partition plate being fixedly installed on the outer surface of the limiting block.

[0006] The outer surface of the first partition is snapped onto the inner wall of the sealed container, and a connecting ring is fixedly installed on the top of the first partition. An extraction block is fixedly installed on one side of the connecting ring, and the outer surface of the connecting ring is in contact with the inner wall of the sealed container.

[0007] The moisture-proof mechanism includes a breathable cloth bag and a color-changing silica gel desiccant. The color-changing silica gel desiccant is located inside the breathable cloth bag, which is located directly below the first partition.

[0008] The breathable cloth bag has a second partition installed on top of it, and the second partition is fixedly connected to the inside of the sealed container. The second partition is located between the first partition and the breathable cloth bag, and the outer surfaces of both the first partition and the second partition are provided with ventilation holes.

[0009] The top of both the first and second partitions is equipped with a gauze bag, and the inside of the gauze bag contains red eggplant seeds, which are located above the color-changing silica gel desiccant.

[0010] A thermometer is fixedly installed at the bottom of the second partition, and the thermometer is located directly above the breathable cloth bag. The sealed container is transparent as a whole.

[0011] The fixing ring has a sealing ring installed inside, and the outer surface of the sealing ring is in contact with the inner wall of the sealing cover. The sealing ring is located outside the sealing container. The bottom of the sealing container is snapped with a fixing seat, and the bottom of the breathable cloth bag is in contact with the top of the fixing seat.

[0012] This utility model has at least the following beneficial effects: By incorporating a breathable cloth bag, color-changing silica gel desiccant, thermometer, sealed container, and a second partition, the system effectively absorbs humidity within the sealed container. The color-changing silica gel desiccant visually indicates its moisture absorption failure status through color changes, facilitating timely replacement to maintain continuous moisture protection. The thermometer, combined with the transparent sealed container, allows for real-time monitoring of internal temperature changes, preventing abnormal temperatures from affecting the viability of the eggplant seeds. The second partition, along with the ventilation holes, maintains a reasonable distance between the eggplant seeds and the desiccant, ensuring the desiccant absorbs moisture from the surrounding air while preventing excessive dehydration due to direct contact with the desiccant. Simultaneously, the breathable cloth bag ensures uniform moisture absorption by the desiccant. The double-sealing structure, combining a sealing ring and a threaded sealing cap, further enhances the device's sealing performance, effectively preventing the entry of external humid air. This provides a dry and stable storage environment for the Xiangzao eggplant seeds, contributing to maintaining their germination rate and quality. Attached Figure Description

[0015] 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.

[0016] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a moisture-proof device for Xiangzao red eggplant seeds, including a sealed container 1, a fixing ring 2 fixedly installed on the outer surface of the sealed container 1, a threaded groove 3 provided on the outer surface of the fixing ring 2, and a sealing cover 4 threadedly installed on the outer surface of the threaded groove 3, the sealing cover 4 being located directly above the sealed container 1, a moisture-proof mechanism 5 installed at the bottom of the sealing cover 4, and the moisture-proof mechanism 5 being located inside the sealed container 1 and in contact with it, a limiting groove 6 being opened at the top of the sealed container 1, and a limiting block 7 being movably installed inside the limiting groove 6, a first partition 8 being fixedly installed on the outer surface of the limiting block 7, the setting of the fixing ring 2 makes it easier for the staff to install the sealing cover 4 on the top of the sealed container 1.

[0017] The outer surface of the first partition 8 is snapped onto the inner wall of the sealed container 1, and a connecting ring 9 is fixedly installed on the top of the first partition 8. An extraction block 10 is fixedly installed on one side of the connecting ring 9. The outer surface of the connecting ring 9 is in contact with the inner wall of the sealed container 1. The setting of the extraction block 10 and the connecting ring 9 makes it convenient for subsequent staff to quickly disassemble the first partition 8 and expose the gauze bag 11 above the second partition 53.

[0018] The moisture-proof mechanism 5 includes a breathable cloth bag 51 and a color-changing silica gel desiccant 52. The color-changing silica gel desiccant 52 is located inside the breathable cloth bag 51, which is located directly below the first partition 8. The color-changing silica gel desiccant 52 is a mature existing technology. It is a modified silica gel material that combines moisture absorption and visual moisture indication. Its core is composed of a "porous silica gel matrix" and a "color-changing indicator". It can absorb moisture efficiently like ordinary silica gel, and can also intuitively reflect its moisture absorption level through color changes. By setting the color-changing silica gel desiccant 52, its moisture absorption failure status can be intuitively indicated by its own color change, which is convenient for timely replacement to maintain a continuous moisture-proof effect.

[0019] A second partition 53 is installed above the breathable cloth bag 51, and the second partition 53 is fixedly connected to the inside of the sealed container 1. The second partition 53 is located between the first partition 8 and the breathable cloth bag 51. Breathable holes 54 are provided on the outer surfaces of both the first partition 8 and the second partition 53.

[0020] Both the top of the first partition 8 and the second partition 53 are equipped with gauze bags 11, and the inside of the gauze bags 11 contains red eggplant seeds. The red eggplant seeds are all located above the color-changing silica gel desiccant 52. By setting the gauze bags 11, the red eggplant seeds can be effectively wrapped without affecting the moisture protection, preventing them from scattering when they are taken out later.

[0021] A thermometer 55 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the second partition 53, and the thermometer 55 is located directly above the breathable cloth bag 51. The sealed container 1 is transparent in all aspects. With the thermometer 55 and the sealed container 1, the internal temperature changes can be monitored in real time to avoid abnormal temperature from affecting the activity of the eggplant seeds.

[0022] A sealing ring 12 is installed inside the fixing ring 2, and the outer surface of the sealing ring 12 is in contact with the inner wall of the sealing cover 4. The sealing ring 12 is located outside the sealing container 1. The bottom of the sealing container 1 is snapped with a fixing seat 13, and the bottom of the breathable cloth bag 51 is in contact with the top of the fixing seat 13. By setting the sealing ring 12, the overall sealing performance of the device can be further improved in conjunction with the sealing cover 4.

[0023] The working principle of the moisture-proof device for Xiangzao red eggplant seeds based on the embodiment is as follows: First, rotate the sealing cap 4 to open it along the threaded groove 3 on the outer surface of the fixing ring 2, and remove the sealing cap 4. At this time, the connecting ring 9 can be pulled upwards by the extraction block 10, causing the first partition 8 to be removed along the limiting groove 6 on the inner wall of the sealed container 1 through the limiting block 7, exposing the gauze bag 11 at the top of the second partition 53. Xiangzao red eggplant seeds are then placed into the gauze bag 11 at the top of the first partition 8 and the second partition 53 respectively, ensuring that the seeds are evenly distributed and do not exceed the capacity of the gauze bag 11, avoiding seed compression that could affect respiration or moisture-proof effect. Then, the first partition 8 is placed back into the sealed container 1, allowing the limiting... The positioning block 7 is accurately engaged in the limiting groove 6, ensuring that the first partition 8 is in close contact with the inner wall of the sealed container 1, preventing external air from entering through gaps. Then, using the engagement relationship between the fixing seat 13 and the sealed container 1, the breathable cloth bag 51 containing the color-changing silica gel desiccant 52 is placed at the bottom of the sealed container 1, so that it is located directly below the second partition 53 and in complete contact with the inner bottom wall, ensuring that the desiccant can fully absorb the moisture in the air inside the sealed container 1. Then, the sealing cap 4 is aligned with the fixing ring 2 and screwed back. At this time, the inner wall of the sealing cap 4 is tightly fitted with the sealing ring 12 in the fixing ring 2, forming a double sealing structure of threaded seal and sealing ring 12 seal, blocking the entry of external humid air.

[0024] During daily storage, the internal condition can be directly monitored through the transparent sealed container 1. The thermometer 55 displays the internal temperature of the sealed container 1 in real time. If the temperature exceeds the suitable storage range for Xiangzao red eggplant seeds, which is generally 10-20℃, the container should be moved to a suitable environment, such as a cool and dry warehouse, in a timely manner. This is to avoid excessively high temperatures that would increase seed respiration and consume nutrients, or excessively low temperatures that would cause the seeds to freeze and lose their activity. The color-changing silica gel desiccant 52 is initially blue and turns pink when it reaches saturation. At this point, it needs to be replaced in time, and the above operation should be repeated. The expired color-changing silica gel desiccant 52 should be poured out and replaced with new blue color-changing silica gel desiccant 52 to ensure continuous moisture absorption and moisture prevention, effectively maintaining the germination rate and quality of the seeds. This method is suitable for large-scale seed storage or small-batch home storage. The overall operation process is now complete.
