Description

本発明は、切り花育成装置に関する。 The present invention relates to a cut flower growing apparatus.

切断した樹木や花は、水にさして養分水を供給し生育している。植物の幹を切断した場合、直ちに水揚げ処理を行い、植え込まなければ寿命を短くする。植え込む方法は、スポンジ状の物質に水を含ませた容器や、水を入れる容器に植物を差し込む方法が一般的である。これらの容器の場合、限られた容量の水に差し込み、植物の自然蒸発により、導管から養分水が補給され生きている。水の管理方法は、定期的に水を交換し、切り口の処理、延命剤など、様々な方法で工夫されているが短い期間で生命力を失って枯れてしまい、長期の育成はできないのが現状である。
また、水耕栽培、鉢植え又は露地栽培において、既存のものと花色の異なる花を咲かせる植物の製造法が知られている（例えば特許文献１参照）。 The cut trees and flowers are grown by supplying nutrient water to water. If the trunk of the plant is cut, it is immediately landed and if it is not planted, the life span is shortened. As a method of planting, a method of inserting a plant into a container in which water is contained in a sponge-like substance or a container into which water is put is generally used. In the case of these containers, they are inserted into a limited volume of water, and the nutrient water is replenished from the conduit by the natural evaporation of the plants. The water management method is devised by various methods such as changing the water regularly, treating the cut end, life-extending agent, etc., but it loses its vitality in a short period of time and withers, so it can not grow for a long time It is.
In addition, in hydroponic cultivation, pot planting, or outdoor cultivation, a method for producing a plant in which a flower having a flower color different from that of an existing one is known (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

次に本装置の動作について説明する。
まず、給水タンク３６内の、有効量のモリブデン化合物を含む養分水を植物差し込み体８に循環的に供給する養分水循環動作について説明する。
給水タンク３６内に、予め、補助給水タンク３８内の、有効量のモリブデン化合物を含む、浄化ろ過材４２−１や活性水発生材やマイナスイオン発生材や殺菌抗菌材で水質改善された養分水を満たしておく。本装置の駆動をスタートさせると、制御盤５０によって、空気ポンプ３１と循環ポンプ２３が駆動状態となる。空気ポンプ３１の高圧出力は、空気タンク３７に伝達され、空気タンク３７内が高圧となる。 Next, the operation of this apparatus will be described.
First, the nutrient water circulation operation in which nutrient water containing an effective amount of molybdenum compound in the water supply tank 36 is circulated to the plant insert 8 will be described.
Nutrient water whose water quality has been improved in advance in the water supply tank 36 by using the purification filter medium 42-1, the active water generating material, the negative ion generating material, and the sterilizing antibacterial material containing an effective amount of the molybdenum compound in the auxiliary water tank 38. Meet. When the driving of the apparatus is started, the air pump 31 and the circulation pump 23 are driven by the control panel 50. The high pressure output of the air pump 31 is transmitted to the air tank 37, and the inside of the air tank 37 becomes high pressure.

この空気タンク３７内の高圧空気は、バルブ３３、配管３０、電磁弁３０−１、昇圧管５４を通じて給水タンク３６内に伝達され、給水タンク３６内の空気が高圧状態となる。この空気圧は、圧力センサ４０から信号線を通じて制御盤５０の入力部にフィードバックされ、制御盤５０は、このフィードバック信号に基づいて、減圧弁４３を制御し、給水タンク１６内の空気圧を所定の適正な値に制御する。一方、空気タンク３７内の高圧空気は、バルブ３３，３０−２とパイプ５３を通じて補助給水タンク３８内の養分水４２の水中に供給され、養分水４２に酸素が供給される。給水タンク３６内の養分水は、給水タンク３６内の高圧な空気圧と、循環ポンプ２３の液体圧送力によって、給水タンク３６の出口から養分水循環路に押し出される。 The high-pressure air in the air tank 37 is transmitted into the water supply tank 36 through the valve 33, the pipe 30, the electromagnetic valve 30-1, and the pressure increasing pipe 54, and the air in the water supply tank 36 is in a high pressure state. This air pressure is fed back from the pressure sensor 40 to the input part of the control panel 50 through a signal line, and the control panel 50 controls the pressure reducing valve 43 based on this feedback signal, and adjusts the air pressure in the water supply tank 16 to a predetermined appropriate value. Control to a correct value. On the other hand, the high-pressure air in the air tank 37 is supplied to the nutrient water 42 in the auxiliary water supply tank 38 through the valves 33 and 30-2 and the pipe 53, and oxygen is supplied to the nutrient water 42. The nutrient water in the water supply tank 36 is pushed out from the outlet of the water supply tank 36 to the nutrient water circulation path by the high pressure air pressure in the water supply tank 36 and the liquid pumping force of the circulation pump 23.

給水タンク３６の出口から出た養分水は、養分水循環路を経て、給水タンク３６の入り口に戻り、養分水は、給水タンク３６の出口と入り口との間の養分水循環路を循環する。即ち、給水タンク３６の出口を出た養分水は、バルブ２１、水温調整装置２１−１の流体通路、電磁弁２６，バルブ２４、循環ポンプ２３の流体通路、バルブ２４，２２、電磁弁１５，循環水流出口６０を経て、往路用本管１に至り、該往路用本管１から更に各往路用分岐管３、該分岐管３の直線部分、往路用循環水供給管５、植物差し込み体８の循環水流通用チャンバー８−５、復路用循環水排出管６、調整弁７、復路用分岐管４の直線部分、復路用分岐管４、バルブ１４、復路用本管２、循環水流入口６１、バルブ２０を経て、給水タンク３６の入り口に流入する。 The nutrient water that has exited from the outlet of the water supply tank 36 returns to the entrance of the water supply tank 36 through the nutrient water circulation path, and the nutrient water circulates in the nutrient water circulation path between the outlet and the entrance of the water supply tank 36. That is, the nutrient water exiting the outlet of the water supply tank 36 is supplied from the valve 21, the fluid passage of the water temperature adjusting device 21-1, the solenoid valve 26, the valve 24, the fluid passage of the circulation pump 23, the valves 24, 22, the solenoid valve 15, Through the circulating water outlet 60, the main pipe 1 for the forward path is reached, and further from the main pipe 1 for the forward path, each branch pipe 3 for the forward path, the straight portion of the branch pipe 3, the circulating water supply pipe 5 for the forward path, the plant insert 8. Circulating water circulation chamber 8-5, return circulation water discharge pipe 6, regulating valve 7, straight portion of return branch pipe 4, return branch pipe 4, valve 14, return main pipe 2, circulating water inlet 61, It flows into the inlet of the water supply tank 36 through the valve 20.

この養分水は、水温調整装置２１−１を通ることによって水温が一定に保たれる。上記循環ポンプ２３の運転中、養分水循環路の水圧が設定水圧を超えた場合には、制御盤５０は、この水圧の状態をセンサ４０で検知し、循環ポンプ２３の下流側の、電磁弁１５を調整し、且つ、給水タンク３６側のバルブ１９を開放して、養分水循環路の水圧を減圧し、所定の適正な水圧に戻す。通常運転において、養分水循環路に所定の範囲内で水圧が保たれているときは、循環ポンプ２３は停止され、バルブ２４，２４が閉じられる。 The water temperature of the nutrient water is kept constant by passing through the water temperature adjusting device 21-1. When the water pressure in the nutrient water circulation path exceeds the set water pressure during the operation of the circulation pump 23, the control panel 50 detects the water pressure state with the sensor 40, and the solenoid valve 15 on the downstream side of the circulation pump 23. And the valve 19 on the water supply tank 36 side is opened to reduce the water pressure in the nutrient water circulation path and return it to a predetermined appropriate water pressure. In normal operation, when the water pressure is maintained in the nutrient water circulation path within a predetermined range, the circulation pump 23 is stopped and the valves 24 and 24 are closed.

循環ポンプ２３が停止状態のとき、電磁弁２６，１５のバイパス側の弁が開放され、水温調整装置２１−１を経た循環水は、バイパス通路２５を経て、循環水流出口６０に向かう。本装置運転中、制御盤５０は、圧力センサ４０と水温センサ２１−２の各信号をモニターし、給水タンク３６が適正な圧力を保持し、養分水が適正な水温を保持するように、空気ポンプ３１と水温調整装置２１−１をオンオフ制御する。空気ポンプ３１のオンオフ制御の間隔は、空気タンク３１の容量により決定される。本装置の運転中、バルブ１６及び電磁弁２９は閉じている。給水タンク３６内の養分水の水位が所定値より下がると、水位センサ２１−２の信号によって、制御盤５０は、この給水タンク３６の水位低下を検知し、電磁弁２９を開放する。 When the circulation pump 23 is in a stopped state, the bypass valves of the electromagnetic valves 26 and 15 are opened, and the circulating water that has passed through the water temperature adjusting device 21-1 goes to the circulating water outlet 60 through the bypass passage 25. During operation of the present apparatus, the control panel 50 monitors the signals of the pressure sensor 40 and the water temperature sensor 21-2, so that the water supply tank 36 maintains an appropriate pressure and the nutrient water maintains an appropriate water temperature. The pump 31 and the water temperature adjusting device 21-1 are on / off controlled. The interval of on / off control of the air pump 31 is determined by the capacity of the air tank 31. During operation of the device, the valve 16 and the solenoid valve 29 are closed. When the water level of the nutrient water in the water supply tank 36 falls below a predetermined value, the control panel 50 detects a drop in the water level of the water supply tank 36 based on a signal from the water level sensor 21-2 and opens the electromagnetic valve 29.

これにより、補助給水タンク３８内の養分水は、給水タンク３６の水位が所定の水位に達するまで給水タンク３６に供給される。
尚、本実施形態では、給水タンク３６内の養分水を該給水タンク３６の出口から植物差し込み体８の循環水流通用チャンバー８−５及び往復路用本管１，２を経て給水タンク３６の入り口に至る養分水循環路を循環させるポンプとして空気ポンプ（空圧ポンプ）３１と循環ポンプ２３の２つのポンプを用いたが、本発明は特に２つのポンプを用いる構成に限定されるものではなく、空気ポンプ３１のみでもよく、また循環ポンプ２３のみでも良い。 Thereby, the nutrient water in the auxiliary water supply tank 38 is supplied to the water supply tank 36 until the water level of the water supply tank 36 reaches a predetermined water level.
In this embodiment, the nutrient water in the water supply tank 36 is supplied from the outlet of the water supply tank 36 through the circulating water circulation chamber 8-5 of the plant insert 8 and the main pipes 1 and 2 for the reciprocating path. The two pumps of the air pump (pneumatic pump) 31 and the circulation pump 23 are used as the pump for circulating the nutrient water circulation path leading to the above, but the present invention is not particularly limited to the configuration using the two pumps. Only the pump 31 or only the circulation pump 23 may be used.

本発明で使用するモリブデン化合物を溶解した養分水は無色であり、切り花１０に吸収されると、アントシアニン系色素のない部位は着色しない。アントシアニン系色素の存在する部分にのみモリブデン化合物が反応するため、花弁等のアントシアニン系色素が存在する部分のみ青く変化する。植物差し込み体８に差した切り花１０の青色化はアントシアニン系色素の濃淡に依存するため、アントシアニン系色素の濃い部分は濃く、薄い部分は薄く青色化し、自然に近い感覚の発色が得られる。これは人工的に色素液で着色される花に比べ、鑑賞的な品質において大きく優っている。 The nutrient water in which the molybdenum compound used in the present invention is dissolved is colorless, and when it is absorbed by the cut flower 10, the portion without the anthocyanin pigment is not colored. Since the molybdenum compound reacts only with the portion where the anthocyanin pigment is present, only the portion where the anthocyanin pigment such as the petal is present turns blue. Since the blue coloration of the cut flower 10 inserted in the plant insert 8 depends on the density of the anthocyanin pigment, the dark part of the anthocyanin pigment is dark and the light part is lightly blue, and a natural sensation of color is obtained. This is far superior in appreciation quality compared to flowers artificially colored with a dye solution.
