Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of vapor planting technology, and in particular relates to a cover plate type vapor planting device. Background Technology

[0002] Aerial misting is a method of planting by pumping out a liquid nutrient solution in the form of a mist. Specifically, in existing technologies, a certain pressure of nutrient solution is pumped to a pipeline through an atomizing nozzle, and a spray is formed through the atomizing nozzle on the pipeline.

[0003] Because the planting solution is applied to the cultivated plants as a spray with smaller particles, the plants absorb it more efficiently, resulting in higher cultivation efficiency.

[0004] Existing misting technologies for aeroponic cultivation mostly employ upward spraying. However, because the plant roots are buried in the nutrient soil, the mist generated by the upward-facing nozzles is difficult for the plant roots to absorb (the plant's roots are the primary site of nutrient absorption). Only a very small portion of the mist is absorbed through the plant leaves. This results in extremely low bioavailability of the mist during aeroponic cultivation, as seen in current greenhouse aeroponic cultivation methods.

[0005] Meanwhile, because a large amount of mist dissipates widely in space after being sprayed from the nozzle, the mist concentration can never reach a high level. Therefore, in actual operation, to ensure sufficient mist concentration in the planting environment, it is often necessary to spray mist for a long time at high intensity. This not only leads to excessive energy consumption in mist planting but also increases planting costs.

[0006] Therefore, in actual work, if a method can be developed that can maintain a high concentration of mist for a long time while increasing the efficiency of plant absorption of mist, it will not only significantly reduce the energy consumption required for mist generation but also increase the efficiency of mist planting, thus having a very significant beneficial effect on actual mist planting. Utility Model Content

[0007] Based on the above background, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a cover-type vapor mist planting device.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A cover-type vapor mist planting device includes a vapor mist chamber and a planting cover structure that can be detachably installed on the top of the vapor mist chamber. The planting cover structure includes a cover plate, on which several sunken planting units are provided. Each planting unit includes a planting basket, the main body of which is located inside the mist chamber. It also includes a mist generating mechanism installed in the mist chamber, which includes a mist pipe structure and several atomizing nozzles that spray mist toward the planting basket. It also includes a vapor-liquid collection structure.

[0009] Preferably, the top of the mist chamber is open; The top hatch of the mist chamber has an integrally formed frame-shaped protrusion below it; the cover plate is supported on the frame-shaped protrusion; the top surface of the cover plate is flush with the top surface of the mist chamber's hatch.

[0010] Preferably, the vapor chamber is equipped with a locking structure consisting of several locking cover plates. The locking structure includes a locking plate that locks onto the top of the cover plate. The locking plate is rotatably connected to a locking screw, which is fastened to the vapor chamber.

[0011] Preferably, the side wall of the mist chamber is provided with several ventilation windows, and a dustproof net is fixedly connected inside the ventilation windows.

[0012] Preferably, the vapor liquid collection structure includes a collection water tank that can be detachably installed at the bottom of the vapor chamber, and a plurality of drain holes communicating with the collection water tank are provided on one side of the bottom of the vapor chamber; The water collection tank is connected to a drain pipe; The bottom of the mist chamber is fixedly connected to a ramp platform corresponding to the drainage hole.

[0013] Preferably, the top opening of the water collection tank is integrally formed with a rectangular flange, which is fastened to the bottom of the mist chamber by several bolts.

[0014] Preferably, the cover plate has a plurality of mounting holes, and the planting basket is limited within the mounting holes; The top of the planting basket is integrally formed with a flange structure, which is fastened to the cover plate by bolts. The planting basket has several strip-shaped through holes.

[0015] Preferably, the vapor pipe structure includes several straight pipe sections arranged in parallel, with bent pipe connecting sections integrally formed at both ends of the straight pipe sections; the bent pipe connecting sections penetrate through the side wall of the vapor chamber. The vapor pipe structure also includes a pipe joint that is fixedly connected to the liquid inlet end; The atomizing nozzle is installed on the straight pipe section.

[0016] Preferably, a sealing gasket is installed between the frame-shaped boss and the bottom edge of the cover plate.

[0017] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: 1. During the mist generation process, since the mist is located in a relatively sealed mist chamber, this structural method utilizes the relative airtightness of the mist chamber to maintain a high concentration of mist within the chamber for an extended period, while significantly reducing the energy consumption required to generate the mist. Furthermore, the high concentration of mist is more conducive to the absorption of mist by plant growth (the mist is formed by liquid nutrient solution through a mist nozzle).

[0018] 2. During the operation, the plants planted in the planting basket sink into the mist chamber along with the planting basket, where they are surrounded by a high concentration of mist, thereby increasing the plants' absorption of the mist.

[0019] What's particularly impressive is that the plant roots are also in a high-concentration mist environment, so the plant roots absorb the mist more efficiently.

[0020] 3. The mist pipe structure includes several parallel straight pipe sections, with alternating integrally formed bent pipe connections at both ends of each straight pipe section; the bent pipe connections penetrate from the side wall of the mist chamber. This mist pipe structure design enables the synchronous generation of mist over a large area within the chamber, ensuring a high concentration of mist within the chamber. Attached Figure Description

[0027] Example 1 like Figure 1-6 As shown, a cover-type vapor planting device includes a vapor chamber 1 and a planting cover structure that can be detachably installed on the top of the vapor chamber 1.

[0028] Specifically, the planting cover structure includes a cover plate 2, which is detachably installed in the mist chamber 1. The structure is such that the top of the mist chamber 1 is open (the mist chamber 1 is a cuboid structure).

[0029] Meanwhile, a frame-shaped boss 11 is integrally formed below the top hatch of the mist chamber 1 (the height between the frame-shaped boss 11 and the top hatch corresponds to the thickness of the cover plate 2, that is, when the cover plate 2 is closed, the top surface of the cover plate 2 is flush with the top surface of the hatch of the mist chamber 1). The cover plate 2 is supported on the frame-shaped boss 11.

[0030] After the cover plate 2 is closed, in order to lock the cover plate 2, a locking structure 5 for locking the cover plate 2 is installed at each of the four corner positions of the mist chamber 1. The four locking structures 5 lock and position the cover plate 2 diagonally from the four corner positions of the cover plate 2.

[0031] Specifically, the locking structure 5 includes a locking plate that is locked at the top of the cover plate 2. The locking plate is rotatably connected to a locking screw (a through hole is opened on the locking plate to pass through the locking screw), and the locking screw is fastened to the mist chamber 1.

[0032] Meanwhile, a screwing nut with a downward locking plate is threaded onto the locking screw. Tightening the screwing nut downwards squeezes the locking plate until it presses down onto the top of the cover plate 2, thus locking the cover plate 2.

[0033] During the mist generation process, since the mist is located within the relatively sealed mist chamber 1, this structural method utilizes the relative airtightness of the mist chamber 1 to maintain a high concentration of mist within the chamber for an extended period, while significantly reducing the energy consumption required to generate the mist. Furthermore, the high concentration of mist is more conducive to the absorption of mist by plant growth (the mist is formed by liquid nutrient solution through a mist nozzle).

[0034] In actual operation, to further reduce leakage of vapor from the cover plate 2, a sealing gasket (not shown in the figure) is installed between the frame-shaped boss 11 and the bottom edge of the cover plate 2, as is the existing method. Specifically, according to the existing method, the sealing gasket is rectangular in shape to match the shapes of the frame-shaped boss 11 and the cover plate 2. Correspondingly, a rectangular gasket groove is opened on the sidewalls of the frame-shaped boss 11 and the cover plate 2 facing each other. This achieves increased sealing through the gasket groove and gasket structure after the cover plate 2 is placed, reducing leakage of vapor from the gaps in the cover plate 2.

[0035] Example 2 like Figure 1-6 As shown, in this embodiment, based on the structure of embodiment 1, in order to increase the absorption effect of the cultivated plants on the vapor mist, the cover plate 2 is provided with several sunken planting units 21. The planting units 21 are sunken into the vapor mist chamber 1, so that the plants planted in the planting units 21 are directly in a high-concentration vapor mist environment, thereby increasing the absorption efficiency of the plants on the vapor mist.

[0036] Specifically, the planting unit 21 includes a planting basket 211, the main body of which is located inside the vapor chamber 1.

[0037] Specifically, the cover plate 2 has several mounting holes, and the planting basket 211 is limited within the mounting holes; the top of the planting basket 211 has an integrally formed flange structure 212, which is fastened to the cover plate 2 by bolts; the planting basket 211 has several strip-shaped through holes.

[0038] During operation, the plants planted in the planting basket sink into the mist chamber 1, where they are surrounded by a high concentration of mist, thereby increasing the plants' absorption of the mist.

[0039] What's particularly impressive is that the plant roots are also in a high-concentration mist environment, so the plant roots absorb the mist more efficiently.

[0040] During the planting process, the planting basket 211 is filled with planting nutrient soil. Therefore, in actual operation, the diameter of the strip-shaped through hole is controlled (using a narrow hole design with a small width) to prevent the planting soil from leaking from the strip-shaped through hole (the planting soil itself is sticky and does not easily leak in a narrow hole environment).

[0041] Example 3 like Figure 1-6 As shown, in order to ensure ventilation, this embodiment is based on the structure of embodiment 1. In order to ensure ventilation, a number of ventilation windows 12 are provided on the side wall of the above-mentioned mist chamber 1. A dustproof net is fixedly connected inside the ventilation window 12.

[0042] Under normal circumstances (when mist does not occur), ventilation is provided through ventilation window 12 to meet the air requirements for plant production.

[0043] In actual operation, when vapor mist occurs, in order to reduce the leakage of vapor mist from the ventilation window 12, the ventilation window 12 can be sealed in a conventional way according to existing technology, such as by using a simple circular blind plate. The blind plate can be magnetically attached to the ventilation window 12 in the same way as existing methods. For example, if there is a ring magnetic sheet attached to the blind plate, iron ring pieces are attached to the ventilation window 12 to achieve sealing.

[0044] In actual operation, due to the small aperture of the dustproof mesh, the actual amount of vapor leakage is not large, and it is not necessary to seal it.

[0045] After the misting operation is completed, a large amount of mist will form water droplets. In order to achieve mist recovery (the mist is formed by the preparation of nutrient solution), the above also includes a mist liquid collection structure.

[0046] Specifically, the vapor collection structure includes a collection water tank 3 detachably installed at the bottom of the vapor chamber 1. Several drain holes A, connected to the collection water tank 3, are located on the left side of the bottom of the vapor chamber 1. Simultaneously, a ramp platform 13 (with a triangular longitudinal cross-section, higher on the right and lower on the left) corresponding to the drain holes A is fixedly connected to the bottom of the vapor chamber 1. The drain holes A are located at the lower end of the ramp platform 13. The ramp platform 13 is located below the vapor pipe structure described below.

[0047] After vapor liquefaction, the vapor flows down the ramp 13 into the drain hole A and is then collected in the collection tank 3.

[0048] Meanwhile, a drain pipe (with a valve) is connected to the water collection tank 3; opening the valve will discharge the recovered nutrient solution.

[0049] The installation method of water collection tank 3 is as follows: The top opening of the water collection tank 3 has an integrally formed rectangular flange, which is fastened to the bottom of the mist chamber 1 by several bolts.

[0050] Example 4 like Figure 1-6 As shown, this embodiment, based on the structure of embodiment 3, further includes a mist generating mechanism 4 installed inside the mist chamber 1 to generate mist. The mist generating mechanism 4 includes a mist pipe structure, on which several atomizing nozzles 42 are installed to spray mist towards the planting basket 211. The atomizing nozzles 42 are conventional atomizing nozzles 42 disclosed in the prior art. They function similarly to existing atomizing nozzles 42, where nutrient solution at a certain pressure passes through the atomizing nozzles 42 and is sprayed out as mist.

[0051] To increase the vapor generation area and maximize the dispersion concentration of vapor within the chamber, the aforementioned vapor pipe structure includes several parallel straight pipe sections 41 (with atomizing nozzles 42 mounted on each straight pipe section 41). Both ends of each straight pipe section 41 are alternately integrally formed with bent pipe connections. These bent pipe connections penetrate through the side wall of the vapor chamber 1. The vapor pipe structure also includes a pipe joint (a conventional pipe fitting disclosed in the prior art) fixedly connected to the liquid inlet end. Following conventional methods, the pipe joint is connected to a drain pipe, such as a pump body. This allows a high-pressure pump to deliver nutrient solution at a certain pressure to the vapor pipe structure, from which it is sprayed from each atomizing nozzle 42 to form vapor.

[0052] The vapor pipe structure designed above enables the synchronous generation of vapor over a large area inside the cabin, ensuring a high concentration of vapor inside the cabin.

[0053] Of course, the above description is not intended to limit the present utility model, and the present utility model is not limited to the examples given above. Any changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the present utility model should also fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
