JP 2004-57150 A

  In the conventional cultivation facility, a plurality of workers each work on a work vehicle, and it is not a work mode in which workers' labor management is accurately performed. Therefore, cultivation work efficiency was not so good.

  Moreover, since the cultivation condition of the seedlings of each cultivation strip is not automatically judged and managed for cultivation, the cultivation environment of a wide cultivation facility cannot be properly judged. That is, there was no means for determining an appropriate seedling growing environment.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, a plurality of cultivating strips (5) are provided in a greenhouse (1) with a work passage (4a) therebetween, and a work mobile vehicle for carrying out cultivation management work in the work passage (4a) ( 35) In the cultivation facility which has 35), each entry information input / output device which transmits the data received from a work vehicle (35) to a cultivation facility management computer (CPU) (in the entrance part which enters each work passage (4a) ( 47), and the work moving vehicle (35) includes a weighing device (44) for weighing the weight of the processed product in the cultivation management work, and a weight and work moving vehicle (35) measured by the weighing device (44). A transmission device (46) for transmitting the unique number to each cultivation information input / output device (47), and the transmission device (46) moves when the work vehicle (35) enters the work path (4a). Automatic transmission of the unique number of the car (35), work movement (35) is configured to automatically transmit the weight weighed by the weighing device (44) and the unique number of the work vehicle (35) when exiting the work passage (4a), When the work mobile vehicle (35) enters the work passage (4a), the unique number of the work mobile vehicle (35) and the time of entering the work passage (4a) are automatically transmitted, and the work mobile vehicle (35) is sent to the work passage (4a). ) When we get out, we automatically transmit the weight weighed with the weighing device (44), the unique number of the work vehicle (35) and the time that we finished the work and exited the work passage (4a), and the cultivation facility management computer (CPU) Based on the time when the work passage (4a) was entered and the time when the work was finished and exited from the work passage (4a), the work time in the work passage (4a) was calculated and stored as data, and the leaf removal work Or when buds are cut off When leaves or buds of the weight of the working channel weighed by the weighing device (44) (4a) is larger than the weight of leaves or buds of other working channel (4a), the working channel in the greenhouse (1) (4a ) Is a cultivation facility characterized in that the temperature is controlled to increase or the humidity is controlled to decrease.

  Accordingly, the time when the work vehicle (35) enters and exits the work passage (4a), the time until the work vehicle (35) enters and exits the work passage (4a), and the work vehicle (35). Weighing device (work equipment) as a result of cultivation management work (harvesting work, leaf cutting work, leaf removal work, rot removal work, bud cutting work, etc.) in the work passage (4a). 44) is measured and the weight is transmitted to the cultivation line information input / output device (47) by the transmission device (46). And each cultivation information input / output device (47) transmits the time and weight to a cultivation facility management computer (CPU).

  In this way, since the work time in the work path (4a) of the worker can be measured, it can be used for the labor management of the worker, and an efficient work mode / work time plan in the cultivation facility can be planned. It can stand up and can perform cultivation management efficiently. In addition, when a plurality of workers are each working on a work vehicle (35), it is immediately known where the work vehicle (35) (worker) is located in a wide cultivation facility, and labor management can be performed. Easy to do.

Then, cultivation facilities management computer (CPU) being leaves or buds of the weight of leaves or buds of the weight of other working channel (4a) of the working passage which is metered when the leaves up operation or bud-away work (4a) When there is more, the temperature of the work passage (4a ) in the greenhouse (1) is controlled to be raised or the humidity is lowered, and the cultivation management work (harvesting work, leaves of each cultivation line in each work passage (4a) is controlled. Since the weight of each processed product in the chipping work, leaf removal work, rot removal work, bud cutting work) is known, the environmental management of the subsequent cultivation facility can be corrected with the data, so that proper cultivation can be performed. .

According to a second aspect of the invention, cultivation facilities management computer (CPU) being leaves or buds of the weight of the leaves up work or blast away the working passage and weighed in the metering device (44) when the work (4a) other when more than the weight of leaves or buds working channel (4a), or to increase the temperature difference between day and night of the working channel in the greenhouse (1) (4a), or raising the nutrient solution temperature, or The cultivation facility according to claim 1, characterized in that the EC value of the nutrient solution is increased or the irrigation frequency is reduced.

Therefore, in the cultivation facility management computer (CPU), the weight of the leaves or buds of the work passage (4a) measured when the leaf removing operation or the shoot-out operation is performed is the weight of the leaves or buds of the other work passage (4a). More than , increase the temperature difference between day and night of the work passage (4a ) in the greenhouse (1), increase the nutrient solution temperature, increase the EC value of the nutrient solution, or the number of irrigation Control to reduce.

  Therefore, according to this cultivation facility, labor management can be performed appropriately and work efficiency is good. Moreover, the cultivation management of the cultivation facility of a large area can be performed appropriately with high accuracy, and appropriate cultivation can be performed, resulting in an increase in yield.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
FIG.1 and FIG.2 shows the greenhouse 1, and this greenhouse 1 comprises the side wall 2 and the ceiling 3 of the transparent glass. A main passage 4 through which an operator, a work cart or a control machine can pass is provided at one end of the greenhouse, and the main passage 4 is a concrete passage whose road surface is made of concrete. On the side of the main passage 4, a cultivation area is arranged in which cultivation beds 5. Further, an entrance / exit 6 to the greenhouse 1 is formed in the central portion of the main passage 4.

  A container 10 is suspended from a plurality of beams 7... Provided at the upper part in the greenhouse 1 so as to float from the ground. Each container 10 has a cultivation bed 5 made of rock wool. And in each cultivation bed 5 ..., the cube 12 which transplanted each seedling is mounted in the cultivation bed 5 along with right and left two rows.

A stem K of a seedling extending from the cube 12 (in the example, a cherry tomato seedling) grows while being attracted upward by an attracting string 13 suspended from above.
A liquid supply pipe 19 for supplying nutrient solution to the cultivation bed 5 is provided along the cultivation bed 5 at the center in the left-right width direction below the cultivation bed 5 below the container 10. A drainage garter 20 that receives and collects drainage liquid (excess nutrient solution) from the cultivation bed 5 is provided along the liquid supply pipe 19 at a position below the cultivation bed 5 above the feeding pipe 19. . The container 10, the cultivation bed 5, and the drainage garter 20 are slightly inclined in the longitudinal direction, and the drainage received by the drainage garter 20 is collected at one end of the garter 20. Each drip hose 21 for supplying the nutrient solution from the fluid supply pipe 19 to each cube 12 is provided, and the nutrient solution is supplied to the seedlings transplanted to the cube 12 to grow the crop.

  Therefore, since the liquid supply pipe 19 is disposed below the cultivation bed 5 and the drainage garter 20, the cultivation bed 5 or the drainage garter 20 is shaded by the cultivation bed 5 and the sunlight does not irradiate the liquid supply pipe 19. It can prevent that the nutrient solution supplied to the bed 5 becomes high temperature. In particular, it is possible to prevent the nutrient solution from becoming an abnormally high temperature in summer, and to prevent the cultivation bed 5 serving as the cultivation floor from becoming an abnormally high temperature and adversely affecting cultivation. Moreover, since the liquid supply pipe 19 is not arrange | positioned to the side of the cultivation bed 5, while being able to reduce the cultivation area in the greenhouse 1, the liquid supply pipe 19 is from the side of the cultivation bed 5 by an operator or a working vehicle. It will not interfere with the work of the plant and the growth of cultivated crops. Conventionally, since the liquid supply pipe was provided on the upper side of the hanging type cultivation bed and the ear on the upper side of the container on which the cultivation bed is placed, the temperature of the liquid supply pipe is likely to rise due to the irradiation of sunlight. The nutrient solution supplied to the cultivation bed sometimes became hot. In addition, when a liquid supply pipe is provided on the upper side of the cultivation bed, the liquid supply pipe interferes with the work from the side of the cultivation bed or interferes with the cultivated crops and inhibits its growth. There is a fear.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the nutrient solution is supplied from the A tank 22, the B tank 23, and the acid tank 24 storing the nutrient solution to the supply pipe 19 through the pump unit 25. In addition, the nutrient solution from which a fertilizer component differs is stored in A tank 22 and B tank 23, and the mixing ratio of the nutrient solution from which the fertilizer component from A tank 22 and B tank 23 differs is adjusted with the pump unit 25, and desired fertilizer It is designed to obtain nutrient solutions for ingredients. And it is the structure by which a nutrient solution is shunted from the pump unit 25 to the liquid supply pipe 19 of each cultivation bed 5, and when there exists the container 10 or the cultivation bed 5 which does not cultivate a crop, the liquid supply to each liquid supply pipe 19 is carried out A liquid supply stop valve 26 that can be stopped is provided, and the supply of the nutrient solution can be prevented by the liquid supply stop valve 26. With these configurations, a nutrient solution supply apparatus is configured.

  In addition, the drainage liquid collected by each drainage garter 20 joins and is stored in the drainage recovery tank 27, and is supplied from the drainage recovery tank 27 to the sterilizer 29 via the pre-sterilization tank 28. The effluent is sterilized by 29. The effluent sterilized by the sterilizer 29 is sent to the secondary raw water tank 30 and mixed with the raw water to adjust the fertilizer concentration, and is supplied to the pump unit 25 so that it can be reused as a nutrient solution. The raw water is supplied from the primary raw water tank 31 that stores the raw water to the secondary raw water tank 30.

  As a result, the fertilizer concentration can be adjusted while mixing the waste water sterilized in the secondary raw water tank 30 and the raw water, so that the fertilizer concentration can be accurately adjusted to the desired fertilizer concentration, and fertilizer burns can be produced on the seedlings and crops to be cultivated. It can be prevented from occurring.

  In the pump unit 25, two pumps 32 that supply the nutrient solution from the secondary raw water tank 30 to the cultivation bed 5 are provided in parallel. Normally, one of the two pumps 32 is used to supply the nutrient solution. When the pump 32 being used fails, the pump 32 is stopped, the inlet and outlet valves 33 are closed, the inlet and outlet valves 33 of the other pump 32 are opened, and the other The pump 32 can be driven, and the nutrient solution supply can be continued. Thereby, the plant (crop) cultivated by the failure of the pump 32 does not wither, and good cultivation can be maintained. Since the inlet and outlet valves 33 of the faulty pump 32 are closed, the faulty pump 32 is repaired or replaced with a non-defective pump while the other pump 32 continues supplying nutrient solution. Can be. Conventionally, the nutrient solution is supplied by a single pump. If the pump fails, the nutrient solution cannot be supplied, which may adversely affect plant (crop) cultivation.

  A work passage 4a communicating with the main passage 4 is provided between the containers 10 on which the cultivation beds 5 are placed. In each work passage 4a, two hot water pipes 34, 34 are provided in parallel with a left-right interval. The hot water pipes 34 and 34 are configured such that hot water from a hot water boiler flows through the hot water pipes 34 and 34, and the temperature is controlled by a control device described later to increase the room temperature when it is cold. Further, the hot water pipes 34 and 34 are made of round steel pipes, and are also configured to fulfill a function as a rail. That is, the rail rolling wheels 36a and 36a of the left and right front wheels 36 and 36 and the rail rolling wheels 37a and 37a of the left and right rear wheels 37 and 37 of the work moving vehicle 35 as shown in FIGS. In this state, the work vehicle 35 can move through the work passages 4a.

Here, the configuration of the work vehicle 35 will be described in detail.
The work moving vehicle 35 pivotally supports the left and right front wheels 36 and 36 and the left and right rear wheels 37 and 37 at the lower part of the traveling chassis 38, and drives the left and right rear wheels 37 and 37 by an electric motor 40 that is operated by the power of the battery 39. It is configured to rotate forward and backward. On the other hand, a work table 43 is mounted on the upper side of the traveling vehicle base 38 via an elevating mechanism composed of a pantograph 42 that is expanded and contracted by an electric cylinder 41. Then, by operating the operation panel, the operator can operate the electric motor 40 to move the work moving vehicle 35 forward, backward, and stop, and operate the electric cylinder 41 to operate the work table. 43 can be adjusted to a desired working height.

  44 is a weighing device which is processed at the time of working on a container placed thereon (harvested product during harvesting, leaves removed during leaf cutting and leaf removal operations, and rotting fruit during removal of rots. When buds are cut off, the buds can be weighed.

  46 is a transmission device, and when the work moving vehicle 35 enters the work passage 4a from the main passage 4 to the cultivation strip information input / output devices 47 provided at the entrances entering the work passages 4a from the main passage 4. The unique number of the work vehicle 35 is automatically transmitted, and each cultivation item information input / output device 47 automatically transmits the unique number and the time of entering the work passage 4a to the cultivation facility management computer CPU. Then, the worker rides on the work moving vehicle 35 and performs the cultivation management work (harvesting work, leaf cutting work, leaf removing work, rot removal work, shoot cutting work) in the work passage 4a, and the work processing product is stored in the container. Since the weighing device 44 measures the weight of the work product put in the container when leaving the work passage 4a, the weight and the unique number of the work vehicle 35 are input and output to the cultivation information. The information is automatically transmitted to the device 47, and the cultivation item information input / output device 47 automatically transmits the weight, the unique number, and the time taken from the work passage 4a to the cultivation facility management computer CPU.

  Therefore, for example, when the worker A performs leaf removal work in one work passage 4a, the worker A gets on the work moving vehicle 35 and finishes the time and work that has entered the work passage 4a from the main passage 4. Since the time is known, the time worked in the work passage 4a can be calculated and stored as data in the cultivation facility management computer CPU. Further, the weight of the leaves removed in the work passage 4a is also stored as data in the cultivation facility management computer CPU.

  Thus, since the working time of each worker in the work passage 4a can be measured, it can be used for the labor management of the worker, and an efficient work mode / work time allocation plan can be made in the cultivation facility. Can be managed efficiently. Further, when a plurality of workers are each working on the work moving vehicle 35, it is possible to immediately know which work moving vehicle (worker) is in a wide cultivation facility, and to easily perform labor management.

  And since the weight of each processed product in the cultivation management work (harvesting work, leaf cutting work, leaf removing work, rot removal work, bud cutting work) of each cultivating strip in each work passage 4a... The subsequent environmental management of the cultivation facility will be modified to enable proper cultivation. That is, cultivation management of a large area cultivation facility can be performed accurately and appropriately.

Here, a method of correcting the subsequent environmental management of the cultivation facility with the weight data of the processed product will be described.
When the harvesting work is performed in the work passage 4a, the harvest weight for each work passage 4a (cultivation strip) and the harvest weight of the entire cultivation facility are known, so that the cultivation bed 5 of the cultivation passage 4a with a small harvest weight has more fruit. When the cultivation facility management computer CPU automatically controls to supply nutrient solution as a growing fertilizer component, and the harvest weight of the entire cultivation facility is small, room temperature, humidity, ventilation, nutrient solution, and lighting management of the entire facility are controlled. Control back to a more appropriate one.

In the case of leaf removal work (for example, in the case of cherry tomatoes, it is good that there are three leaves on one branch and if there are more leaves) or bud cutting work in the work passage 4a, The weight of the leaves and buds taken for each work passage 4a (cultivation strip) is known. When the weight of leaves and buds is large, it is caused by the environment where leaves and stems grow, not the environment where fruits grow, so the environment of the work passage 4a is set as follows.
1. Increase the temperature.
2. Increase the temperature difference between day and night to about 5 degrees.
3. Increase the nutrient solution temperature.
4). Reduce humidity.
5. Increase EC value of nutrient solution.
6). Reduce the number of irrigations to make the cultivation bed 5 dry.
Then, from the environment where leaves and stems grow to the environment where fruits grow, the harvest increases.

When the rot removal work is performed in the work passage 4a (removing the fruit that has rotten without growing), the weight of the rot taken by each work passage 4a (cultivation strip) is known. When the weight of the rotting fruit is large, the environment of the work passage 4a is set as follows.
1. The light shielding curtain 50 provided on the ceiling 3 part is closed to lengthen the light shielding time.
2. Decrease EC value of nutrient solution.
3. Increase the frequency of irrigation of nutrient solution. Alternatively, the amount of nutrient solution supplied at one time is increased.
4). Spread calcium on the leaves. Or, increase the calcium concentration in the nutrient solution.
5. Increase humidity.
As a result, the production of rots decreases and the yield increases.

  In addition, a light shielding curtain 50 is wound around a winding shaft disposed on one end side of the ceiling 3 of the greenhouse 1 so as to be opened. A heat-insulating curtain 51 that is wound up and opened is provided.

  In this nutrient solution supply control, the liquid supply possible time zone of the day is set so as not to supply at night, and the nutrient solution is supplied only during the liquid supply possible time zone. . And when the liquid supply possible time zone has passed (in the evening, etc.), the acid stored in the acid tank 24 is supplied for a predetermined time (5 seconds), and the inside of the drip hose 21 is washed. Conventionally, since the nutrient solution remains stored in the drip hose 21 at night, the liquid fertilizer is easily consolidated in the drip hose 21, and the drip hose 21 is clogged, so that the nutrient solution can not be supplied smoothly the next day. In some cases, this deficiency can be eliminated by washing the drip hose 21 with acid. In addition, the said acid is a thing of the grade which does not inhibit plant growth, such as nitric acid of about 1% of weight concentration. Moreover, after flowing and washing | cleaning the acid in the drip hose 21, raw | natural water may be poured, and it may be made not to inhibit plant growth by an acid so that an acid may not remain in the cultivation bed 5.

  In the first embodiment, an example is shown in which each cultivation path information input / output device 47 is provided in each work passage 4a... A recognition device for recognizing whether the vehicle is in the passage 4a is provided (for example, an individual barcode is attached to each work passage 4a..., The barcode is recognized by the recognition device, and the work vehicle 35 is placed in any work passage. When the work vehicle 35 exits from the work path, it recognizes the barcode and recognizes the time when the work vehicle 35 exits.) In the transmission device 46 of the work vehicle 35 The recognized cultivation passage data, the measured weight, and the working time may be directly transmitted to the cultivation facility management computer CPU.

  Therefore, when the work vehicle 35 enters the work passage 4a, the work vehicle 35 recognizes which work passage the work passage 4a is in the cultivation facility by the recognition device, and the data is transmitted to the cultivation facility management by the transmission device 46. It is transmitted to the computer CPU. Further, the work processing product obtained as a result of a worker on the work moving vehicle 35 performing cultivation management work (harvesting work, leaf cutting work, leaf removal work, rot removal work, bud cutting work, etc.) in the work passage 4a. The weighing device 44 measures the weight, and the weight is transmitted by the transmission device 46 to the cultivation facility management computer CPU. Further, the time when the work vehicle 35 enters and exits the work passage 4a or the time until the work vehicle 35 enters and exits the work passage 4a is transmitted to the cultivation facility management computer CPU by the transmission device 46.

  In this way, since the working time of the worker in the work passage 4a can be measured, it can be used for the labor management of the worker, and an efficient work form / working time plan can be made in the cultivation facility. Can be managed efficiently. Further, when a plurality of workers are working on the work moving vehicles 35, it is possible to immediately know where the work moving vehicles 35 (workers) are located in a wide cultivation facility and easily perform labor management.

  And since the weight of each processed material in the cultivation management work (harvesting work, leaf cutting work, leaf removing work, rot removal work, bud cutting work) of each cultivation path in each work passage 4a is known, the data will be used thereafter. It is possible to correct the environmental management of the cultivation facility in order to carry out proper cultivation.
