Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model mainly relates to the field of agricultural planting technology, specifically a seed soaking device to improve germination efficiency. Background Technology

[0002] In agricultural research, due to research needs, it is necessary to accelerate the ripening of some seeds with slow germination cycles, kill insect eggs and viruses in the seeds, and shorten the seed germination cycle. Generally, researchers use artificial soaking to accelerate germination, which requires preheating, formal heating and drying of the seeds. The process is time-consuming, labor-intensive and inefficient, affecting the research progress. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a seed soaking device to improve germination efficiency. The main advantages are achieved by incorporating a disc-shaped seed soaking tank structure, further enhanced by a heating structure at the rear of the tank. Nutrient solution is injected into the tank, and seeds are then immersed inside for soaking. The heating structure heats the nutrient solution to preheat the seeds and then proceeds with the final heating process to promote ripening. A rotating shaft groove structure is installed inside the tank, and within this groove is a gear-driven telescopic plate structure. Adjusting the length of the telescopic plate allows for adjustment of the distance between its end and the tank. Furthermore, adjusting the rotation of the telescopic plate ensures even distribution of seeds at the bottom of the tank, resulting in more uniform soaking. The device also allows for adjustments to the extension length and rotation angle of the telescopic plate. The system automatically completes the seed stirring process, improving the efficiency of soaking and heating. It further extends the telescopic plate structure to fit snugly against the soaking tank, and then rotates the telescopic plate structure to remove the seeds from the nutrient solution. By rotating to a certain angle, the seeds are moved and spread evenly on the surface of the telescopic trough plate structure. A dryer on one side dries the seed surface. After drying, the telescopic plate structure is rotated again to move the seeds from the surface of the telescopic trough plate structure to the surface of the discharge plate on one side. The dried seeds are then removed from the device by aligning the discharge plate with the device opening, completing the seed ripening and soaking process. This structure automatically completes the seed soaking, preheating, heating, drying, and discharge processes, reducing the workload of personnel, minimizing seed ripening steps in agricultural research, and improving work efficiency.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model employs the following technical solution: A seed soaking device for improving germination efficiency includes a seed soaking tank. A support plate is fixedly provided at the bottom of the seed soaking tank. Support columns are fixedly connected to both sides of the support plate and are fixedly connected to the seed soaking tank. A transparent plate opening is provided on the lower front side of the seed soaking tank. A transparent observation plate is fixedly provided inside the transparent plate opening. Several fixed connecting plates are fixedly connected to the transparent observation plate and are fixedly connected to the seed soaking tank. A through-hole is provided on one side of the seed soaking tank. A discharge trough plate is fixedly connected to the outside of the through-hole.

[0005] Furthermore, the seed soaking tank has a central rotating shaft hole, inside which a rotating shaft is rotatably connected. A rotating shaft motor is fixedly connected to the rear of the seed soaking tank, and the output end of the rotating shaft motor is coaxially fixedly connected to the rotating shaft. Discharge plates are fixedly connected to both sides of the rotating shaft. Telescopic groove plates are fixedly connected to the upper and lower sides of the rotating shaft and communicate with it. Movable telescopic plates are slidably connected inside the upper and lower telescopic groove plates. Several gear grooves are evenly spaced on one side of each movable telescopic plate. A series of gear slots are fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating shaft. A motor support plate is provided, with a servo motor fixedly connected to its front side. The output end of the servo motor passes through the motor support plate and is rotatably connected to it. A gear rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor. A rotating gear is fixedly sleeved on the outer periphery of the gear rod and meshes with the gear groove. Several drying protrusions are fixedly connected to one side of the telescopic trough plate. A conveying inclined plate is fixedly connected between the telescopic trough plate and the discharge plate. Opening slots are opened on both sides of the end of the discharge plate. Opening slot plates corresponding to the shape of the opening slots are fixedly installed on both sides inside the opening.

[0006] Furthermore, a dryer hole is provided on one side of the seed soaking tank, and a dryer is fixedly connected to the side of the seed soaking tank at the position corresponding to the dryer hole. Baffle holes are provided on both sides inside the output hole of the dryer, and rotating baffles are provided inside the baffle holes on both sides. A baffle motor is fixedly connected to one side of the dryer, and the output end of the baffle motor is fixedly connected to the rotating baffle.

[0007] Furthermore, a heater is fixedly connected to the bottom rear part of the seed soaking tank.

[0008] Compared with the existing technology, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. By setting up a disc-shaped seed soaking tank structure, and further setting up a heating structure at the rear of the seed soaking tank structure, nutrient solution is injected into the seed soaking tank structure and seeds are placed inside the seed soaking tank for soaking. The heating structure further heats the nutrient solution to complete the seed preheating and formal heating to complete the ripening work. Furthermore, a rotating shaft groove plate structure is set up inside the seed soaking tank, and a telescopic plate structure driven by gears is set up inside the rotating shaft groove plate. The distance between the end of the telescopic plate structure and the seed soaking tank is adjusted by adjusting the length of the telescopic plate structure. Furthermore, adjusting the rotation of the telescopic plate makes the seeds evenly spread at the bottom of the seed soaking tank, thereby making the soaking more uniform. At the same time, by adjusting different extension lengths and rotation angles of the telescopic plate, the seeds can be stirred, making the soaking and heating work more efficient. 2. The telescopic plate structure is extended to fit the seed soaking tank. The seeds are then removed from the nutrient solution by rotating the telescopic plate structure. After rotating to a certain angle, the seeds are moved and spread flat on the surface of the telescopic trough plate structure. The surface of the seeds is then dried by a dryer located on one side. After drying, the seeds are moved from the surface of the telescopic trough plate structure to the surface of the discharge plate located on one side by continuing to rotate the telescopic plate structure. The dried seeds are then removed from the device by the discharge plate corresponding to the opening position of the device, completing the seed ripening and soaking process. This structure automatically completes the seed soaking, preheating, heating, drying and discharge processes, reducing the workload of personnel, reducing the seed ripening steps in agricultural research, and improving work efficiency.

[0017] Working principle: In use, the nutrient solution and seeds are first injected into the soaking tank 1 through the inlet 7. The movable telescopic plate 14 is then extended and retracted to change the distance between its end and the surrounding area of ​​the soaking tank 1. The rotating shaft tube 10 drives the movable telescopic plate 14 to rotate, evenly spreading the seeds at the bottom of the soaking tank 1. The seeds can be stirred by modifying the extension length and rotation angle of the movable telescopic plate 14 to make the soaking process more uniform. The internal soaking process can be observed through the transparent observation plate 5. Simultaneously, the nutrient solution is heated by the heater 29 to improve seed germination efficiency. After soaking and heating, the movable telescopic plate 14 is rotated to one side of the device. The movable telescopic plate 14 is then extended to align with the surrounding area of ​​the soaking tank 1. The seeds are placed against the inside of the soaking tank 1, and the rotation of the movable telescopic plate 14 moves the seeds out of the nutrient solution. The rotation of the movable telescopic plate 14 further moves the seeds to the position of the dryer hole 24. The seeds are then moved to the surface of the telescopic trough plate 13 by tilting and blowing by the dryer. The seeds are then evenly distributed on the surface of the telescopic trough plate 13 by the drying protrusions 20. The seeds can then be dried by the dryer 25. After drying, the rotating shaft tube 10 continues to rotate, causing the telescopic trough plate 13 to rotate. The seeds are then moved from the surface of the telescopic trough plate 13 to the surface of the discharge plate 12 by the conveying inclined plate 21. The discharge plate 12 is then moved to the position of the outlet 7 so that the seeds can be discharged through it, thus completing the seed soaking and heating drying process.
