Description

Plant factory system

The present invention relates to a plant factory system.

Plant factory means a plant that can produce a large amount of plants by artificially creating environmental conditions for plant growth in a closed space and controlling the growth rate of plants. In relation to plant plants, Joseph W. Campbell et al. Proposed the concept of "automatic food plant production" in US Patent Publication No. 4,068,405 in 1978. They built tray-type plant cultivation on a continuous conveyor belt, installed artificial light, and periodically moved the conveyor. In addition, the nutrient solution supply network was installed so that the nutrient solution can be supplied centrally, and the temperature, humidity, and carbon dioxide concentration can be controlled for plant growth indoors.

This invention was a technically important development in that it proposed a mass production technology of a plant factory. However, due to the low precision of environmental control, high heating and cooling costs, and high installation and operating costs of artificial light sources, the commercialization was very low.

In recent years, an invention related to a plant factory using LED having excellent efficiency as compared to a conventional fluorescent lamp as an artificial light source has been reported. Korean Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 10-2004-0010426 (Dye plant with LED light source and its device) in the cultivation of pigment plants in the closed space to increase the production efficiency in a short space and to be grown in a short time ( LED, Light Emitting Diode) As a plant factory, LED lamps with far infrared light 730 nm, red light 660 nm, and blue light 450 nm are used as light sources. In addition, an ultraviolet sterilizer and an ozone sterilizer of the culture medium were configured, and the dissolved oxygen supply device was used to supply the dissolved oxygen of the culture solution. Cultivation uses NFT (Nutrient Film Technique) and spray hydroponic systems.

In addition, in order to maximize the space for plant cultivation by minimizing the space occupancy in the plant factory, a plant cultivation lighting apparatus for inserting a plurality of LED modules into the floodlight panel, and manufacturing in a slim panel form is disclosed in Korea Patent Publication No. It was reported in 10-2011-0013164. This reduces the space of the lighting device, and features a simple configuration. In recent years, many technologies are mainly focused on LEDs and diversifying light sources to promote plant growth. However, these technologies can be viewed as a high cost structure because the installation of a lot of expensive LED. The closed plant factory is a method that induces the growth of plants with only artificial light without sunlight in the existing closed reinforced concrete or steel structured building, so it is easy to control the environment of the building, but it has the disadvantage of expensive facility cost. It is developing into a building plant factory using

The solar combined type is a fusion of the technical concept of the existing glass greenhouse and the plant factory, and has the technical characteristics of lighting using artificial lighting and sunlight at the same time. Conventional glass greenhouses are made of transparent glass, so the solar transmittance is about 90%. The disadvantages of glass greenhouses are that they do not have good thermal insulation, so they have high indoor and heating energy costs in summer or winter. In addition, there is a problem that can not use the space efficiently because it is difficult to multilayer. The advantage is that daylight mainly uses sunlight and artificial lighting as a supplement, and at night only artificial light can reduce the installation cost of the light source. Conventional solar photovoltaic panels are mostly single-story buildings, and thus the space is not effectively utilized, and heating costs are high in winter and cooling costs are high in summer, resulting in high energy costs.

Referring to FIG. 2, the cell portion 100 has a polyhedron shape and a hexagonal column shape. A plurality of cell units 100 may be connected horizontally or vertically. The plurality of cell portions 100 are horizontally connected to one side surfaces of the cell portions 100 in contact with each other, and the plurality of cell portions 100 are vertically connected to the upper and lower surfaces of the cell portions 100 in contact with each other. .

The solar cell unit 100 that receives sunlight directly has a high amount of insolation, but the remaining cell unit 100 that does not receive sunlight directly has a lower amount of solar radiation than the cell unit 100 of a crop cultivation unit that receives sunlight directly. This may be complemented by the lighting unit 200 as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 to be described later.

2 and 4, the cell unit 100 includes a support zone 110, a plurality of vertical members 120, a plurality of horizontal members 130, and a plurality of beams 140.

The support zone 110 is disposed vertically in the center, and serves to support the load of the entire cell unit 100. As shown in FIG. 4, when the upper surface of the cell unit 100 has a regular hexagonal shape, the cell unit 100 is horizontally connected to each other by six regular hexagons contacting each side of the central regular hexagon. When the support zone 110 of the cell unit 100 is connected, another regular hexagonal shape is formed.

The plurality of vertical members 120 are disposed in parallel with the support zone 110. The vertical members 120 are arranged at equal intervals from each other, and the distances from the center of the support zone 110 are the same on the same plane.

The plurality of horizontal members 130 are arranged to connect between upper ends and lower ends of the vertical members 120 adjacent to each other. The horizontal member 130 has the same distance from the center of the support zone 110 to both ends thereof on the same plane.

The plurality of beams 140 are arranged to connect the upper end of the support 110 and the upper end of the vertical member 120, and the lower end of the support 110 and the lower end of the vertical member 120. Angle of the beam 140 and the horizontal member 130 on the same plane is the same. As shown in FIG. 4, when the top surface of the cell unit 100 has a regular hexagonal shape, the angle formed with the horizontal member 130 on the same plane is 60 degrees, and the beams 140 are formed around the support zone 110. The angle is also 60 degrees.

In addition, such a cell unit 100 is structurally stabilized by combining each honeycomb structural element with a dry-based beam 140 centered on the support zone 110 disposed in the center. Cell portion 100 made of a multi-layer is made of a precast prestressed concrete (PCaPC) structure type to reduce the weight and quality uniformity, shorten the construction period. In addition, by placing the support zone 110 in the center can minimize the number of the support zone 110 and the beam 140 to reduce the construction cost.

The cell unit 100 described above is a structure having a minimum of structural elements, the support zone 110, a plurality of vertical members 120, a plurality of horizontal members 130, and a plurality of beams 140. It has a ring structure connected with). This structure is different from the conventional structure having a simple cubic structure, despite the movement of the sun during the day, it facilitates the inflow of sunlight to maintain a high amount of solar radiation inside the cell portion (100). To this end, in the case of rural areas, the cell unit 100 is installed high, and in the case of the city, the cell 100 unit is installed wide.

In addition, the plane surrounded by the support zone 110, the horizontal member 130, the beam 140 is formed of concrete, the beam 140 is applied to the concrete so that the tensile stress is not applied to the concrete. In this way, tension is applied to the cell portion 100 to form an integrated structure.

On the other hand, the outer skin portion 115 constituting the side of the cell portion 100, the plane formed by the vertical member 120 and the horizontal member 130 adjacent to each other, the plane formed by the polygon connecting the upper end of the vertical member 120, and It is provided in the plane formed by the polygons connecting the lower end of the vertical member (120). The shape of the polygons connecting the top of the vertical member 120, and the shape of the polygons connecting the bottom of the vertical member 120 is the same as the shape of the polygon formed on the top or bottom of the support zone 110, and may be a regular hexagonal shape. have. The envelope member 115 is formed of multiple plastic sheets (or glass) through which light passes well, and a space is formed between the plastic sheets. For example, the outer shell member 115 may be formed of a double window (or double skin, 115a, 115b) formed of a plastic sheet, as shown in Figure 3, the air 155 to the outer shell member 115 By circulating) to maintain a constant temperature in the cell unit 100, and provides an optimal environment for crop growth. In addition, the shell member 115 may optimize the temperature environment in the cell unit 100 by using the difference in the thermal environment for each season. That is, if the wind directly applied to the crop is a barrier to crop growth due to the dry environment, double windows (115a, 115b) can prevent such a barrier. In other words, by circulating air in the outer shell formed of a plastic sheet of a double structure it can block the outflow and inflow of thermal energy in the plant factory. That is, in winter, circulating air or waste heat introduced into the interior can reduce heat energy flowing out to the outside, and in summer, circulate cold air supplied through the air conditioning facility in the same way to heat transfer through the plastic skin from the outside. By reducing the cooling energy of the room can be reduced. In summary, circulating the air flowing from the air conditioning facility between the outer shell formed of a plastic sheet of the double structure to properly control the flow of heat energy into the room and the outside has the effect of significantly reducing the heating and cooling costs in the plant factory.

Natural light is possible through such an outer shell member 115, and the light insufficient by natural light can be supplemented with an illumination lamp 221 (fluorescent lamp or LED).

It may further include a water supply means for supplying water to the upper end of the outer skin 115 to flow water down to the lower end of the outer skin 115 along the outer surface of the outer skin 115. In this case, it may further include a drip tray receiving water flowing down and installed at the lower end of the outer skin part 115. The drip tray is for recovering water flowing through the outer skin 115 when the outer skin 115 overheated in the summer with water. As such, the temperature of the shell member 115 may be reduced by flowing water in the summer portion of the outer shell member 115 having a double structure. In addition to the direct contact with water on the surface of the outer shell member 115 in the summer, there is an effect that can directly take heat from the heated outer shell member 115, as well as the water generated in the process of evaporating water from the surface of the outer shell member 115 The heat of evaporation (endothermic) has the effect of taking heat away from the shell member 115.

5 is a perspective view of a cell unit of a crop cultivation unit having a crop planting unit according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 5, the cell plant 100 includes a crop planting unit 300 having a multilayer structure. That is, as shown in Figure 5, the inside of the cell unit 100 has a support zone 110 in the center, crop planting unit 300, lighting unit 200, crop from below on the basis of the support zone 110 The planting unit 300 and the lighting unit 200 are respectively disposed. In the case of FIG. 5, the crop planting unit 300 is composed of two layers. The crop planting unit 300 is not limited to only two layers but may be configured to three or more layers by different design methods.

6 is a perspective view of a lighting unit according to an embodiment of the present invention. 5 and 6, the support zone 110 is disposed at the center of the cell unit 100, and the lighting unit 200 is fitted to the support zone 110 to rotate, and the center of the cell unit 100 is rotated. And a supported rotating body.

The rotating body has a rotary frame 210 fitted to the support base 110, and a rotary blade 220 inserted and fixed in a groove formed in the rotary frame 210 and detachable. Rotating blade 220 is composed of three, but is not limited thereto.

In addition, since the rotating body constituting the lighting unit 200 has a removable blade 220, the maintenance and repair of the lighting unit 200 is easy. In addition, by rotating the rotating body, it is possible to lower the installation cost of the lighting unit 200, it is possible to obtain a flashing effect even when the lighting lamp 221 is not used. That is, the light can be irradiated when the light is needed according to the constant amount of light required for the crop, and the light is not irradiated when the light is not required for the crop, thereby increasing the efficiency of energy consumption by light irradiation.

In addition, the rotational speed is controlled to adjust the amount of light irradiated to the crop. When the rotational speed of the rotating body is adjusted, the blinking time of the lighting unit 200 is also adjusted, and the light intensity and the amount of light can be controlled by adjusting the number of lighting lamps 221 provided in the lighting unit 200. That is, the faster the rotational speed, the more the number of times passing through a specific point during the same time, the shorter the flashing time, and the greater the number of illumination lamps 221, the smaller the light intensity and the amount of light. On the contrary, the slower the rotational speed, the less the number of times passing through a specific point during the same time, the longer the flashing time, and the smaller the number of illumination lamps 221, the greater the light intensity and the amount of light.

In addition, the size of the rotating body and the number of the lighting lamps 221 are also variables of the lighting conditions. As the speed of the rotor is faster, the driving energy consumption of the rotor is greater. Therefore, if the lighting cost is optimized by dividing the lighting cost into the lighting facility cost and the lighting operation cost, the economical efficiency of the lighting cost can be increased.

In addition, the distance from the crop planting unit 300 of the rotating body can also be adjusted. At this time, the rotating body may move up or down with the support zone 110 as an axis. When the rotating body moves upward, the distance from the crop planting part 300 becomes long, and when the rotating body moves downward, the distance from the crop planting part 300 becomes short. In this way, the distance between the rotating body and the crop planting unit 300 can be adjusted, and the crop planting unit 300 can be configured in several layers in the cell unit 100, and the distance from the lighting according to the height of the crop. I can regulate it.

The rotating frame 210 is the center of the rotating body and has a hollow shape. The rotating frame 210 rotates while being fitted to the support base 110 even when rotating.

In addition, a fan 230 for circulating the heat generated from the lighting lamp 221 to the outside of the rotary blade 220 may be further installed on the rotary blade 220. Due to the installation of the fan 230, it serves to release the heat due to the illumination lamp 221. That is, when the lighting lamp 221 is overheated, the heat of the lighting lamp 221 is released so that the temperature of the lighting lamp 221 is not excessively increased.

In addition, the rotary blade 220 has a fan-shaped end of the opposite side of the rotary frame 210. Thus, due to the fan shape of the rotary blade is easy to rotate under the influence of the wind during the rotation of the rotary blade. That is, since the fan shape is round, it is suitable for the shape of the rotary blade which is rotated under the influence of the wind.

On the other hand, the lighting unit 200 may enable the rotation operation and the light irradiation operation through the remote control means. That is, the crop cultivator may operate the push button through a remote control means such as a remote controller to rotate the lighting unit 200 to irradiate light. In this way, by allowing the crop cultivator to operate by remotely controlling without operating the lighting unit 200, it is possible to pursue the convenience and speed of crop cultivation.

As illustrated in FIG. 1, instead of the lighting unit 200, cutting means for cutting the upper portion of the crop while rotating above the crop planting unit 300, or light on the crop while rotating above the crop planting unit 300. When rotating without irradiating and irradiating light may include cutting means for cutting the upper portion of the crop. However, when the cutting means is included instead of the lighting unit 200, the components related to light irradiation are not included.

The above-described lighting unit 200 or the cutting means may be configured by inserting the rotating blade 220 into the rotating frame 210 in a different structure. At this time, the upper part of the crop can be more easily cut due to the cutting means. For example, the cutting means may have a sharp edge, such as a knife, so as to contact the upper part of the crop during rotation to cut the crop.

7 is a perspective view illustrating a bottom surface of the lighting unit of FIG. 6. Referring to FIG. 7, a motor is installed in the support zone 110 to generate a driving force to rotate the rotary blade 220. The rotary blade 220 includes an illumination lamp 221 for irradiating light to crops, A reflection plate mounted on the illumination lamp 221 and reflecting the light emitted from the illumination lamp 221 in the direction of the crop may be installed. Therefore, it is possible to rotate the rotary blades 220 by generating a driving force by the motor, it is possible to provide illumination by driving the motor if only the power supply. In addition, since the light emitted from the illumination lamp 221 can be collected in one direction (the direction in which the crop is located) by installing the reflector, the light efficiency can be increased.

The lighting lamp 221 may be composed of a fluorescent lamp or an LED, or a combination of a fluorescent lamp and an LED. When the lighting lamp 221 is composed of a fluorescent lamp, there is an advantage that the installation cost is low and low, and when the lighting lamp 221 is composed of an LED, there is an advantage that electric energy consumption and life reduction do not occur when blinking. . In particular, when composed of LEDs, by combining a blue LED and a red LED in a variety of configurations, it is possible to irradiate the essential light of crop growth.

When the combination of the fluorescent lamp and the LED, it is possible to solve the problem that the number of fluorescent lights or LEDs are simply arranged at equal intervals and the number is required and the efficiency is low. In addition, when the combination of the fluorescent lamp and the LED, it is possible to obtain all the advantages of the fluorescent lamp which is cheap and low installation cost, and the LED that does not cause a reduction in electrical energy consumption and life when flashing, so that only using a fluorescent lamp or LED The disadvantage of the case can be compensated for.

In addition, when the combination of the fluorescent lamp and the LED, it is possible to compensate for the problem of using only a fluorescent lamp that is rapidly reduced in life and increases the use of electricity when using a flashlight, or using only expensive LED installation.

The reflector collects the light irradiated from the lighting lamp 221 to the place where the crop is located.
