Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention prevents mushrooms such as enoki mushrooms that extend upward from the mouth of a mushroom cultivation bottle from dripping outside the mouth of the mushroom cultivation bottle. This relates to a bottle opening cover for a mushroom cultivation bottle, which is used when growing mushrooms into sprouts.

[Prior Art] In the conventional artificial cultivation of mushrooms such as enoki mushrooms in a cultivation bottle filled with a culture medium, when the mushrooms growing in the cultivation bottle slightly extend above the mouth of the cultivation bottle, As shown in FIG. 3, a wide band-shaped wrapping paper 14 made of thick and durable kraft paper is placed around the small-diameter cylindrical bottle opening 12 at the top end of the mushroom cultivation bottle 10, and the upper part is placed above the bottle opening. The mushroom 2 is made to stand up in a cylindrical shape and is wrapped using a rubber band 16 or the like, and in the space 18 inside the wrapping paper that surrounds the upper part of the bottle mouth 12 in a cylindrical shape, the mushroom 2 grows upward in the form of a stock or the like and extends above the bottle mouth 12.
0 to the outside of the mushroom cultivation bottle 10 and without exposing the mushrooms 20 to light, the mushrooms are grown into white sprouts that are preferred by consumers.

[Problem to be solved by the invention] However, as described above, mushroom 20
When the mushrooms 20 grow into white sprouts in the space 18 inside the wrapping paper, the immediate outside of the mushrooms 20 is surrounded by the thick wrapping paper 14 with almost no air permeability, which prevents outside air from entering the area around the growing mushrooms 20. The space 18 inside the wrapping paper around the mushroom 20 becomes difficult to clean.
At the same time, the mushrooms 20 being cultivated in the paper wrapping space 18 become deficient in oxygen, and toxic gases such as carbon dioxide exhaled from the growing mushrooms 20 continue to stay in the wrapping paper space 18 for a long time.
However, the growth was delayed or did not grow properly.

In addition, the periphery of the mushroom 20 extending upward from the bottle opening of the cultivation bottle in a stock-like manner is in close contact with the inner peripheral surface of the wrapping paper 14 wrapped around the bottle opening 12, so that the mushroom 20 The water permeability between the surrounding area and the inner peripheral surface of the wrapping paper 14 deteriorates, and water during water supply stays in that area for a long period of time, causing bacteria to propagate around the mushroom 20 and inhibiting the growth of the mushroom 20. 20 mushrooms that are obstructed or grow into stock-like shapes
Due to high humidity in the surrounding area, the area around the mushrooms 20 turned brown or other colors, making it impossible to grow high-quality mushrooms 20.

Incidentally, as shown in FIG. 4, a through hole 22 that communicates with the inside and outside of the wrapping paper 14 is bored around the upper part of the thick wrapping paper 14 that is wrapped around the bottle opening 12 of the cultivation bottle shown in FIG. A bottle neck wrap cover (described in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 39-9751) is also known, which improves the circulation of air between the cylindrical wrapping paper inner space 18 wrapped around the bottle mouth 12 and the atmosphere. In the cover, external light may enter the wrapping paper 14 through the through hole 22 formed around the wrapping paper 14, and the mushrooms 20 growing in the wrapping paper inner space 18 may be colored. The moisture in the space 18 inside the paper wrapper 14 actively evaporated and scattered to the outside of the paper wrapper 14 through the through holes 22 around the paper wrapper 14, and the mushrooms 20 growing in the space 18 on the paper wrapper became too dry, and the growth of the mushrooms was inhibited. . Furthermore, rapid changes in temperature, humidity, etc. in the mushroom cultivation bottle room are directly and sensitively transmitted to the mushrooms 20 growing in the space 18 inside the paper wrapper through the through holes 22 around the paper wrapper 14. 20 had various negative effects.

An object of the present invention is to provide a bottle neck cover for a mushroom cultivation bottle (hereinafter referred to as a bottle neck cover) that solves such problems and surrounds the bottle neck and its upper circumference. There is.

[Means for Solving the Problems] For the above purpose, the first bottle opening cover of the present invention protects the mushrooms extending upward from the bottle opening of the mushroom cultivation bottle to the outside of the mushroom cultivation bottle. In a cover that surrounds the mouth and upper part of a mushroom cultivation bottle in a cylindrical shape, which is used to grow mushrooms without drooping and turning them into sprouts, a plurality of small-diameter through holes are formed at predetermined intervals on the side wall around the cover. The outer peripheral surface of the cover in which the through holes are formed is covered with a light-shielding sheet having appropriate air permeability and water permeability.

The second bottle opening wrapper cover of the present invention is used for mushroom cultivation to grow mushrooms that extend upward from the bottle opening of a mushroom cultivation bottle by turning them into sprouts without causing them to drip out of the mushroom cultivation bottle. In a cover that surrounds the mouth of the bottle and its upper part in a cylindrical shape, a plurality of small-diameter through holes are bored at predetermined intervals in the peripheral side wall of the cover, and the inside of the through holes is provided with appropriate air permeability. The present invention is characterized in that a light-shielding sheet with water permeability is stretched around the cover so that its inner surface is recessed inside the through-hole outside the inner circumferential surface of the cover.

[Function] In the first and second bottle cap wrappers configured as described above, the outer circumferential surface of the cover in which the through hole is provided is covered with a sheet, or the sheet is placed inside the through hole provided in the side wall around the cover, and the inner side of the cover is covered with a sheet. The through hole is covered with a sheet by making the surface recessed inside the through hole outside the inner circumferential surface of the cover and stretching it around. The inner surface of the sheet covering the through hole is prevented from protruding inside the inner circumferential surface of the cover.

At the same time, the diameter of the through hole provided in the side wall around the cover is small.

Therefore, the periphery of the mushroom growing in the inner space of the cover which surrounds the upper part of the bottle opening in a cylindrical shape does not come into close contact with the sheet covering the through hole located outside the inner peripheral surface of the cover. The periphery of the mushroom is supported by the inner periphery of the cover so that it does not swell to the outside of the cultivation bottle, and the mushroom turns into sprouts and grows in the inner space of the cover.

Therefore, the mushrooms growing in the space inside the cover,
The breathable, water-absorbing sheet does not absorb too much water and become too dry, resulting in brown discoloration, weakened growth, or death.

In addition, since the through holes provided in the side wall around the cover are covered with a sheet that has moderate ventilation, there is a moderate amount of air between the inside space of the cover and the outside air outside the cover through the sheet covering the through holes. This ensures good air circulation, prevents the space inside the cover from running out of oxygen, and prevents toxic gases such as carbon dioxide emitted by the mushrooms.
It does not remain in the space within the cover for a long period of time.

In addition, since the through holes provided in the side wall around the cover are covered with a sheet that has moderate water permeability, an appropriate amount of water evaporates from the space inside the cover to the outside of the cover through the sheet covering the through holes, ensuring a tight fit. If water from the time of water supply continues to remain between the growing mushrooms and the inner surface of the cover for a long period of time, bacteria may grow around the mushrooms, or the area around the mushrooms may become too humid. , the mushrooms will not discolor or fade. At the same time, moisture evaporates from the space inside the cover to the outside of the cover so intensely that the mushrooms growing in the space inside the cover do not become watery.

In addition, the holes in the side walls surrounding the cover are covered with a sheet that has appropriate breathability and water permeability.
Rapid changes in temperature, humidity, etc. in the mushroom cultivation bottle room are not transmitted to the mushrooms growing in the space inside the cover through the holes, and these changes are transmitted through the sheet covering the holes to the mushrooms growing in the space inside the cover. This is only indirectly transmitted to the mushrooms, and even if there are temporary sudden changes in the temperature, humidity, etc. of the mushroom cultivation bottle room, these changes will not have a negative effect on the mushrooms growing in the space inside the cover. do not have. At the same time, compared to the case where mushrooms are cultivated in the space inside the thick wrapping paper without perforations, the space inside the cover can be brought closer to the weather conditions such as temperature and humidity inside the mushroom cultivation room, and the space inside the cover The growing mushrooms can be placed in the optimal weather conditions in the mushroom cultivation room according to the cultivation process.

In addition, since the transparent holes provided on the side wall around the cover are covered with a light-shielding sheet, light can enter the space inside the cover through the holes from outside the cover, preventing the mushrooms growing inside the cover from becoming colored. do not have.
