It is to be understood, however, that the invention is not to be limited to the specific embodiments, but includes all modifications, equivalents, and alternatives falling within the spirit and scope of the invention.

Like reference numerals are used for like elements in describing each drawing. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The present invention not only increases the amount of plants grown per unit area, but also makes it easier for an operator to work.

The vertical spraying water hydrator according to the present invention comprises a planting bed 10 sloping to a re-battle 40 and having a plurality of planting holes 11 formed therein; A nutrient solution supply unit 20 installed on the back surface of the planting bed 10 and supplying the nutrient solution to the roots of the plant passed through the planting hole; And a nutrient solution reservoir (30) installed at the lower part of the planting bed and sprayed from a spray nozzle to collect nutrients that wet and drop the root.

The planting bed 10 functions to support the plants to grow. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, a plurality of planting holes 11 are formed, and plants can be planted in the planting holes. As shown in the figure, the top is inclined backward so that the plants planted in the planting hall do not come out from the planting hole.

In addition, since the planting bed is vertically erected and tilted backward, the amount of plants cultivated per unit area is increased, but the workability can be improved.

When the planting bed is vertically erected, the amount of plants planted per unit area can be increased, but plants planted in the planting hole can be poured forward and the workability is poor. Therefore, as shown in the drawing, .

The slope of the planting bed may be varied depending on the environment, but the preferable slope is that the planting slope is inclined rearward by 10 to 45 degrees from the vertical line.

In addition, the planting bed may be made of a material capable of absorbing moisture, so that the nutrient solution supplied by the nutrient solution supplying device is absorbed by the planting bed and then gradually discharged, so that the nutrient solution is gradually supplied to the plant.

In addition, the planting bed 10 is detachably installed to separate from the re-battle after the cultivation of the plant is completed, and the plants are planted in the planting holes in a state where the planting bed is laid down This makes it easier to plant the plants.

In order to support the lower end of the planting bed, at least one bed supporting protrusion 41 may be provided at the lower end of the re-battle. (See Figs. 1 and 2)

As shown in the drawing, it is preferable that the two planting beds are arranged so as to be opposite to each other, and the inclination of the planting bed can be adjusted by adjusting the inclination of the re-battle 40 supporting the planting bed.

That is, the re-battle 40 supporting the planting bed can adjust the inclination of the re-battle by hinging the upper ends thereof to adjust the distance between the lower ends.

The re-battle 40 is a means for supporting the planting bed as described above, which can be made by combining a plurality of frames and supports the backside of the planting bed.

The planting holes 11 formed in the planting bed may be formed in various shapes, but it is preferable that the planting holes 11 are formed so as to be inclined downward so that the inner side of the re-battle faces downward. The inclination of the planting holes is, ≪ / RTI >

That is, the angle between the front of the planting bed and the planting hole becomes smaller and the angle between the front of the planting bed and the planting hole becomes larger as the planting bed is less inclined and the angle between the front of the planting bed and the planting hole becomes smaller.

That is, as shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the inside of the planting hole 11 is inclined downward so that the roots extending toward the ground can be more smoothly extended downward.

A space in which the nutrient solution supply device 20 can be installed is secured to the inside of the re-battle, and both sides of the re-battle can be made of only a frame or only a front surface where a planting bed is installed can be opened.

The nutrient solution supply unit 20 provided inside the re-battle may be a mist sprayer or a spray nozzle as means for supplying the nutrient solution to the root of the plant planted in the planting hole of the planting bed.

That is, the nutrient solution supply device 20 may be a mist sprayer installed in the upper part of the re-battle, as shown in Figs. 1 and 4, to supply the nutrient solution in the form of mist.

When the nutrient solution feeder is constituted by a mist sprayer, the droplet size can be finely pulverized (for example, 10 nanometers) and the nutrient solution thus injected can be easily absorbed from the roots of the plant, Is absorbed fast and the mist sprayer is installed in one part of the central part of the cultivation bed and the whole bed is filled with the mist, the fertilizing can be made easier because the plant can absorb the nutrients dissolved in the water.

Of course, the nutrient solution feeder may be constituted by a spray line 21 provided with a plurality of spray nozzles 21n as shown in Figs. 2 and 3. Fig.

In this case, the spacing of the spray nozzles 21n allows the nutrient solution to be sprayed to two or more of the planting holes formed in the planting bed, with the areas sprayed by the neighboring spraying nozzles overlapping each other All plants were sprayed with nutrient solution.

The nutrient solution supplied by the nutrient solution supply device may be supplied from another nutrient solution reservoir or may be supplied from the nutrient solution reservoir 30 provided at the lower part of the plantation bed as shown in Figs.

As described above, the nutrient solution supplied to the root of the plant is supplied in a spray form. Some of these nutrients are supplied to the roots, but some of them fall down inside the re-battle and become buried at the bottom of the re-battle.

The nutrient solution reservoir (30) is provided so that the nutrient solution can be collected and supplied to the plant again.

The nutrient solution reservoir not only stores the nutrient solution but also supports the re-battle so as to support the cultivation bed at a height suitable for working.

As shown in FIG. 5, the re-battle (or re-growth bad) supported by the nutrient solution reservoir is arranged adjacent to each other, so that a large amount of plants can be cultivated even in a narrow plane.

However, if the distance between the cultivation beds is narrow, the operator can not go out to manage the cultivation bed.

Accordingly, the nutrient solution reservoir is further provided with a wheel 31 at the lower part thereof to allow the reaper of the present invention to be moved.

When the nutrient solution reservoir provided with the wheels is pushed to one side, the gap between the adjacent cultivated bed is widened, and management work can be performed while the worker enters and exits to the work space.

If the distance between the two cultivation badges is shortened, the distance between the two cultivation badges is widened, and the space for the worker to enter and exit can be secured.

Further, the waste liquid collecting plate 50 may be further installed in the reapplier of the present invention.

As described above, only the nutrient solution sprayed on the cultivation bed is partially supplied to the roots of the plant and a part flows to the bottom, and the nutrient solution collection plate 50 is installed to collect the nutrient solution flowing in one direction and flow the nutrient solution into the nutrient solution reservoir.

As shown in FIG. 2, the waste stock collecting plate 50 is formed of a sloping plate gradually lowering toward the center portion, and a drain hole 50o is formed in the side wall of the lowest point portion, The collected nutrient solution was allowed to flow into the nutrient solution reservoir.

Also, as shown in the figure, the reaper of the present invention includes various sensors and a controller (C), so that the nutrient solution supply can be more efficiently performed.

That is, the nutrient solution reservoir is provided with the EC sensor Se, the temperature sensor St and the Ph sensor Sp, and the humidity sensor Sw is provided on the rear surface of the rearing bed. It is desirable to sense the temperature of the nutrient solution, the concentration of inorganic nutrient in the nutrient solution, the pH and the humidity, and to control them appropriately for the cultivation of the plant using the controller.

In addition, although it is self-evident, the pump (P) is provided at one side of the nutrient solution reservoir, so that the nutrient solution reservoir can be sent and received by the nutrient solution supply device. Timer T is connected to the pump, .
