Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of plant cultivation tools, specifically, it relates to a crop cultivation device that integrates a pot and a container. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, existing potted plant experimental devices are mainly divided into two categories: open-type ordinary flowerpots and closed-type cultivation boxes. Open-type ordinary flowerpots are simple in structure and low in cost, and can provide crops with a near-natural growth environment. However, due to the lack of a sealed structure, they cannot form a stable gas collection space, making it difficult to accurately capture and quantitatively monitor gases such as CO2 and CH4 emitted from the root zone, resulting in larger errors in experimental data. To solve this problem, researchers usually adopt an improved method of placing observation boxes around the soil inside the pot and around the crop roots. These boxes create a locally sealed space to achieve gas collection.

[0003] However, this improved box-like planting method has the following drawbacks. Due to the incompatibility between the internal space and the planting area, it severely restricts the stability of crop growth. On the one hand, the observation box is directly placed around the roots, which forcibly compresses the rhizosphere soil space, destroys the original soil aggregate structure and aeration, and leads to hindered root growth, reduced water and fertilizer absorption capacity, and even root rot, causing the plant to fail to grow normally and significantly reducing the survival rate of experimental samples. On the other hand, the box occupies a large amount of effective cultivation space in the pot, squeezing out soil resources that could be used for root extension and nutrient storage, resulting in low soil utilization and waste of soil resources. At the same time, the gap between the box and the flowerpot is prone to forming dead volume, leading to gas accumulation or leakage, further affecting the accuracy of monitoring data and failing to meet the needs of high-precision pot experiments. In addition, although existing closed cultivation boxes have airtight monitoring functions, they are mostly fixed structures, which are cumbersome to assemble and disassemble, and lack functional partitions for the rhizosphere and upper growth space, making it difficult to meet the dynamic monitoring needs of a single crop throughout its entire growth period. In summary, current crop pot experiment devices cannot simultaneously meet the needs of stable gas emission monitoring and ensure normal crop growth. Furthermore, the use of observation boxes can hinder plant growth and waste soil resources, and they also have poor airtightness and adaptability. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a crop cultivation device that integrates a pot and a box, which can solve the problems of plant growth stagnation and soil resource waste caused by using observation boxes in potted plant experiments, as well as poor airtightness and adaptability.

[0005] This utility model is implemented as follows:

[0006] This utility model provides a crop cultivation device integrating a pot and a box, which includes a planting container and a cover. The top edge of the planting container is provided with a groove structure, and the bottom end of the cover is provided with a protrusion structure that is corresponding to the groove structure for snap-fit ​​and fixation. A sealing component is provided between the groove structure and the protrusion structure, and a connecting component for connecting experimental pipelines is provided on the cover.

[0007] The technical advantages of this integrated pot-and-box crop cultivation device are as follows: Experimental crops are directly cultivated in planting containers. The planting containers and the cover are connected via grooved and protruding structures, enabling rapid assembly and disassembly. A sealing component between the grooves and protrusions effectively blocks the exchange of gases and liquids, ensuring the airtightness of the cultivation space and providing a stable environment for crop cultivation. Connecting components on the cover allow for easy connection to experimental pipelines, such as nutrient solution delivery pipes, gas circulation pipes, and data monitoring pipes, meeting the needs for precise control of cultivation environment parameters during experiments. While meeting experimental requirements, this device minimizes the impact on potted crop growth within a limited space, maintains long-term high-quality monitoring, and avoids the problems of traditional cover methods that prevent normal crop growth or waste soil resources.

[0008] Based on the above technical solution, the integrated pot and container crop cultivation device of this utility model can be further improved as follows:

[0009] The groove structure includes a slot and a lateral oblique protrusion for guiding purposes, wherein the slot is a concave rectangular structure.

[0010] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improvement scheme are as follows: by forming a complementary snap-fit ​​between the slot and the protruding structure, the structural stability of the connection between the planting vessel and the cover is enhanced, and the cover is prevented from tipping over or shifting during use; furthermore, by adding a lateral oblique protrusion to play a guiding role, the protruding structure can be guided to slide quickly into the slot during assembly, reducing the difficulty of assembly alignment and further improving assembly efficiency.

[0011] Furthermore, the cross-section of the lateral convex part is a right-angled trapezoidal structure, and the lateral convex part is located on the upper outer edge of the slot.

[0012] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improvement scheme are as follows: by designing the lateral convex section as a right-angled trapezoidal structure, its inclined surface can be used to smoothly guide the protruding structure during assembly.

[0013] Furthermore, the sealing assembly includes a sealing gasket and a flange, the flange being disposed on the side opposite to the lateral oblique protrusion of the slot, and the sealing gasket being disposed above the flange and abutting against the protruding structure at the bottom of the cover.

[0014] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improvement scheme are as follows: by setting the sealing gasket to directly abut against the protruding structure at the bottom of the cover, the elastic deformation of the sealing gasket is used to fill the gap between the groove and the protrusion, thereby improving the sealing performance of the device; the raised edge is used to provide stable support and positioning for the sealing gasket, preventing the sealing gasket from shifting during assembly or use, and ensuring the consistency of the sealing effect; the raised edge is located on the side opposite to the slot and the lateral oblique protrusion, forming a bidirectional limit with the lateral oblique protrusion, further optimizing the stability of the snap-fit ​​structure.

[0015] Furthermore, a sealing groove is provided on the raised edge, and a sealing gasket is installed inside the sealing groove.

[0016] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improvement scheme are as follows: by setting a sealing groove, the sealing gasket is embedded in the groove to achieve precise positioning and prevent the sealing gasket from shifting during assembly, disassembly or use; at the same time, the sealing groove can limit the compression deformation range of the sealing gasket, avoid sealing gasket failure caused by excessive compression, and extend the service life of the sealing assembly.

[0017] Furthermore, the protruding structure includes a protrusion that adapts to the slot and an inner abutting plate that abuts against the top of the sealing gasket, the inner abutting plate and the protrusion being an integral structure.

[0018] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improvement scheme are as follows: the protrusion and the rectangular slot form a snap-fit, and the inner abutment plate abuts against the sealing gasket, so that the sealing gasket is subjected to uniform force and the sealing effect is improved; at the same time, the inner abutment plate strengthens the rigidity of the protrusion structure and prevents it from deforming during snap-fit.

[0019] Furthermore, the inner edge of the planting container is provided with a protrusion, and an isolation basket is installed above the protrusion.

[0020] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improvement scheme are as follows: by setting up the protrusion to provide a stable support platform for the isolation basket, the isolation basket can be conveniently placed and disassembled; by setting up the isolation basket to divide the internal space of the planting container into layers, crop substrate or plants can be placed in the isolation basket, and the space below the isolation basket can be used to store nutrient solution, thus realizing the functional zoning of the cultivation space.

[0021] Furthermore, the isolation basket includes an upper edge wall and a bottom basket. The shape of the upper edge wall is adapted to the shape of the inner edge of the planting container. The bottom basket is located at the center of the upper edge wall, with an opening at the top and extending downward along the central axis at the bottom.

[0022] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improved scheme are as follows: by adapting the shape of the upper edge wall of the isolation basket to the inner wall of the planting container, it is ensured that the isolation basket is installed on the raised platform. The bottom basket has an opening at the top and extends downward at the bottom to accommodate the growth space of the crop roots, while allowing the roots to fully contact the nutrient solution or air stored below. It is suitable for hydroponics, aeroponics and other soilless cultivation modes.

[0023] Furthermore, the bottom basket is evenly provided with strip grids or mesh.

[0024] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improvement scheme are as follows: the bottom basket is evenly equipped with strip grids or mesh to realize the free flow of liquid and gas. On the one hand, the nutrient solution or atomized liquid below can penetrate upward to contact the root system, and on the other hand, the waste gas generated by root respiration can be discharged.

[0025] Furthermore, the cover is made of transparent acrylic material, and the sealing gasket is made of rubber.

[0026] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improvement scheme are as follows: the cover is made of transparent acrylic material, which has good light transmittance, meets the light requirements of crop photosynthesis, and facilitates the observation of crop growth status; the sealing gasket utilizes the excellent elasticity and weather resistance of rubber to ensure the long-term effectiveness of the sealing components, while the rubber material is resistant to acid and alkali corrosion and is suitable for various nutrient solution cultivation environments.

[0027] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this integrated pot-and-box crop cultivation device are as follows: The device adopts a groove and protrusion snap-fit ​​structure, combined with a sealing component to form a reliable sealed space. The gas monitoring pipeline can be precisely connected via the connecting components on the cover, far exceeding the monitoring accuracy of open flower pots and large closed cultivation boxes. The sealing component maintains long-term airtightness, meeting the needs of long-term experiments. Inside the device, the cultivation space can be layered through the cooperation of the isolation basket and the protrusions, ensuring sufficient space for root growth. Secondly, planting crops inside the device allows for full utilization of the soil, avoiding the soil waste problem of the box-type solution and improving crop survival rate. The transparent acrylic cover ensures over 90% light transmittance, meeting the needs of photosynthesis while allowing real-time observation of crop growth status. Data can be recorded without disassembly, improving experimental efficiency. The strip grid bottom basket on the isolation basket enables efficient flow of water, fertilizer, and gas, reducing root rot rate and shortening the overall assembly time. Compared with traditional sealed boxes, it ensures both space and soil utilization while meeting the needs of dynamic monitoring of a single crop throughout its entire growth period.

[0041] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, a boss 19 is provided on the inner edge of the planting container, and an isolation basket 20 is installed above the boss.

[0042] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the isolation basket includes an upper edge wall 21 and a bottom basket 22. The shape of the upper edge wall is adapted to the shape of the inner edge of the planting container. The bottom basket is located at the center of the upper edge wall, with an opening at the top and the bottom extending downward along the central axis.

[0043] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, strip grids or meshes are evenly arranged on the bottom basket.

[0044] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the cover is made of transparent acrylic material, and the sealing gasket is made of rubber material.

[0045] The following is a specific embodiment: This embodiment is used for soil cultivation in wheat stress resistance testing. The device includes a planting dish and a cover. The top edge of the planting dish has a groove structure, and the bottom of the cover has a corresponding protrusion structure for locking and fixing to the groove structure. A sealing component is installed between the groove structure and the protrusion structure. The cover is equipped with a connecting component for connecting the experimental pipeline. The planting dish is made of ABS injection molding and is a truncated pyramid (top side length 18cm, height 28cm), wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. A drainage hole is provided on the side wall of the planting dish 5cm from the bottom, with a matching rubber plug. The cover is made of transparent acrylic and is a square prism (side length 20cm, height 38cm). The bottom protrusion structure is locked and fixed to the groove structure on the edge of the planting dish. The connecting component adopts a dual-interface design with control valves (two DN15 threaded quick-connect interfaces, one for connecting to the O2 monitoring tube and the other for the humidity sensor) at the ends. The sealing gasket is made of fluororubber and installed in the sealing groove. After installing the sealing gasket, place the isolation basket on the raised platform; fill the isolation basket with sterilized sandy loam soil (15% organic matter content), and adjust the soil moisture content to 25%; select wheat seeds that have germinated for 3 days, sow 3 seedlings, and cover with 2cm of soil; install the cover and snap it shut, and connect it to the O2 monitor and soil moisture sensor through two connecting components respectively. Insert the sensor probe into the soil in the isolation basket, and seal the drainage hole of the planting container with a rubber stopper, leaving space at the bottom for collecting leachate. Set up a drought stress group (stop watering) and a control group (water 200ml per week), and observe the wheat leaf morphology through the transparent cover; monitor the rhizosphere O2 concentration and soil moisture daily. When the leachate accumulates to 3cm, open the drainage hole to drain and collect it, and test the nutrient content of the leachate; after 15 days of stress treatment, disassemble the device and measure the wheat root dry weight and root-to-shoot ratio.

[0046] Specifically, the principle of this invention is as follows: During assembly, the protruding structure at the bottom of the cover slides into the slot along the inclined surface of the planting container, forming initial positioning. The inner abutment plate fits tightly with the rubber sealing gasket in the sealing groove, and the elastic deformation of the rubber fills the gaps, creating a sealed cultivation environment and providing a stable space for gas monitoring. After the cover connection component is connected to the test pipeline, the rhizosphere gas can be accurately collected for quantitative monitoring. Secondly, if the test sample is a hydroponic object, the protrusion on the inner wall of the planting container provides support for the isolation basket, dividing the device into an upper cultivation area and a lower functional area. The upper part holds the substrate and crops, while the lower part can store nutrient solution or arrange pipelines, avoiding interference from water and fertilizer mixing. The upper edge of the isolation basket fits the inner wall of the container to ensure stability, and the downward-extending structure of the bottom basket provides ample growth space for the roots. The strip grid or mesh allows the nutrient solution to permeate upwards for root absorption while simultaneously expelling root respiration waste gas, ensuring the balance of the rhizosphere microenvironment. The transparent acrylic cover transmits light to facilitate photosynthesis, while the rubber sealing gasket resists the corrosion of the nutrient solution's acids and alkalis, extending the device's lifespan. The overall structure requires no additional fasteners, relying on mechanical coordination to achieve stable operation, balancing monitoring accuracy with ease of operation.
