Description

用于无土栽培植物的管槽组件和相应的植物培养方法 技术领域
本发明总体涉及无土栽培植物领域，更具体地涉及用于无土栽培植物的管槽组件和相应的植物培养方法，所述无土栽培植物的管槽组件能够容纳无土栽培的植物并且允许植物生长所需的营养液在其中流动。
背景技术
无土栽培是指不用天然土壤而仅用基质或基质与营养液共用的栽培方法。无土栽培可人工创造良好的根际环境以取代土壤环境，充分满足作物对矿质营养、水分、气体等环境条件的需要，具有省肥、省工、高产优质等特点。
目前，用于无土栽培植物的装置主要有管道式、床面式和立柱式等。就管道式无土栽培装置而言，其一般为一体成型式的管道，植物通常被安置在管道中的固定生长位置，这使得植物在无土栽培装置中的整个生长过程中的空间利用率较低，同时，也不利于管理和清理栽培装置。另外，一体成型式的管道在运输过程中不易堆叠，占用空间大，运输成本高。现有的管道式无土栽培装置多为具有方形或半圆形截面的管道，这使得当管道受到外力时，难以维持原有状态造成倾翻。而且，现有的用于承载无土栽培植物的管道底面通常无法为植物根系的生长提供有利空间，并且无法保证营养液流动的顺畅性，不利于植物的生长。
因此，亟需一种能够满足多种需求的用于无土栽培植物的管槽组件。
发明内容
本发明旨在提供一种用于无土栽培植物的管槽组件和相应的植物培养方法，以克服上述问题之一。
一方面，本发明提供一种用于无土栽培植物的管槽组件，该管槽组件包 括：
一个管槽主体，其顶部形成有开口，管槽主体具有底面和两个侧面，所述管槽主体的底面的内表面上具有至少一个沿管槽主体长度方向延伸的凸棱；以及
至少一个管槽盖，用于至少部分地封闭所述管槽主体顶部的开口，且在所述管槽盖上形成有至少一个孔，以允许植物或含有植物的容器通过所述至少一个孔。
在无土栽培的植物生长过程中，植物的根系倚靠、贴附在凸棱上，从而使得植物的根系与管槽主体的底面之间仍保留有一定的间隙，使得气体能够在间隙中流通，其原理类似于在农植物生长过程中，需要对土壤进行松土以使得在土壤中允许空气流通的原理，因此，在管槽主体底面的内表面上具有凸棱的布置有利于无土栽培植物的生长。
优选地，所述管槽盖的长度小于所述管槽主体的长度。
优选地，所述管槽主体的底面和两个侧面的相交处分别形成有倾角部分。
管槽主体与管槽盖的厚度优选地是相同的，这主要是出于成本和选材的考虑。不言自明，管槽主体与管槽盖的厚度也可以是不同的。出于加工工艺和承载能力等方面的考虑，管槽主体的厚度优选地约为3mm至10mm范围内，显然，技术人员可以对管槽主体的厚度根据情况进行任意选择。
优选地，倾角部分与管槽主体的底面所形成的角度大约为15°至75°范围内，更优选地，在30°至60°范围内。可替代地，也可以在管槽主体的底面和两侧面的交界处分别形成过渡圆角。应理解，在宽泛的意义上，倾角可以包括过渡圆角，或者说所述倾角部分可以为过渡圆角。
根据本发明的一个优选实施方案，所述管槽主体底面的内表面上具有至少一个沿整个管槽主体或部分管槽主体的长度延伸的凸棱。优选地，在所述管槽主体底面的内表面上具有多个沿整个管槽主体长度延伸的、等间距分布的凸棱。
根据本发明的一个优选实施方案，所述管槽主体两侧面的内表面处都具有朝向管槽主体内部延伸的凸台；或者，所述管槽主体两侧面的外表面处具 有朝向所述管槽主体外部延伸的凸台。该凸台优选地与管槽主体整体形成，且沿侧面的整个长度延伸，可替代地，该凸台也可以为非连续的、以一定连接方式，例如焊接、粘合等方式连接至管槽主体两侧面的内表面的元件。应理解，凸台的截面可为任何形状，使得其能够至少部分地支撑管槽盖。所述管槽盖被水平布置在所述管槽主体内位于管槽主体两侧面之间、或者位于所述管槽主体外侧覆盖在所述管槽主体上，封闭所述管槽主体顶部的开口并且由所述凸台支撑。
或者，在另一优选实施方案中，管槽盖可以被简单地放置在管槽主体的顶部上，以封闭管槽主体的顶部开口，在这种情况下，管槽盖的尺寸是不受限制的，其宽度大于管槽主体的顶部开口的宽度即可。另外，管槽主体的两侧面上可设有用于接收管槽盖的滑槽，该滑槽可以是位于两侧面上的凹槽也可以是由两个凸台限定的位于两凸台之间的空间。在这种情况下，管槽盖的厚度应小于凹槽或两个凸台限定的空间的高度。当然，还可以选择其他可用的装配方式以实现管槽盖对管槽主体顶部开口的封闭。无论以何种方式，管槽盖和管槽主体之间是可移动的。
根据本发明的一个优选实施方案，所述管槽盖由所述凸台或者所述管槽主体的侧壁的上表面支撑，使得所述管槽盖能够相对于管槽主体滑动。
营养液或其他液体由管槽主体的一端导入，从其相对的一端流出，在流入的一端处可设有用于液体导管穿入的导入孔。或者，液体导管可以直接从管槽主体的顶部开口将液体导入到管槽主体内。
根据本发明的一个优选实施方案，所述管槽主体和所述管槽盖由PVC材料形成。根据本发明的一个优选实施方案，所述管槽组件包括多个相互隔开布置的所述管槽盖。所述多个管槽盖的长度之和小于所述管槽主体的长度，其中所述多个管槽盖的长度的方向平行于所述管槽主体的长度的方向。
根据本发明的一个优选实施方案，管槽组件被分成不同的区段，具体地，分成不具有管槽盖的第一区段和具有管槽盖的第二区段。在具有管槽盖的区段，无土栽培的植物根据管槽盖上的孔的间距来放置，在不具有管槽盖的区 段，植物以任意间隔(优选地小于孔间距)放置，这种布置方式适应于植物生长所需的不同生长阶段。
根据本发明的一个优选实施方案，所述管槽主体具有在长度方向上的两个相对末端，其中一个末端闭合并且设有用于液体导管穿入的导入孔，另一个末端开放；或者两个相对末端都闭合并且其中一个或两个末端设有用于液体导管穿入的导入孔，在此方案中，管槽底部可以设置有至少一个孔用于排水。
根据本发明的一个优选实施方案，所述管槽主体的一端还包括引流装置。由于所述管槽主体允许营养液在其中流动，为了更好的回收营养液，优选地所述引流装置设置在管槽主体的开放的一端，所述引流装置例如为向下弯曲的流体通道，使得从开放的一端流出的营养液能够被顺利地回收循环。
有利地，管槽组件中的凸棱使得无土栽培植物与管槽主体的底面之间存在间隙，从而便于气体和营养液的流通。另外，因为管槽盖相对于管槽主体是可拆装的，因此便于后期的维修更换，且有利于植物成熟后，植物的摘取和对管槽的清理。还应理解，管槽盖相对于管槽主体是可移动的，特别是可滑动，这有利于根据实际情况来调整植物在管槽组件中的位置。而且，由于管槽主体具有倾角部分，当管槽组件受到外力冲击或无意的移动时，该倾角能够对外力进行缓冲。在含有植物的容器放置过程中，有时因为距离和位置原因，不能清楚的观察到植物相对于管道的位置，由于管道开口较宽，常造成植物在管槽组件中的倾翻，而根据本发明由于倾角部分的存在，使得管槽主体的两侧面之间具有较大的距离，而底面具有稍大于包含植物的容器的宽度，以这种方式，植物能够被容易且准确的方式放置在管槽组件中，另外，也降低了对管槽组件容差控制的要求，提供了更大的生长空间。因此，本发明的管槽组件具有利于植物生长、便于拆装维护、高稳定性等优点。
另一方面，本发明还提供一种无土栽培植物的培养方法，其使用上述的管槽组件，所述培养方法包括以下步骤：
(a)将幼苗放置在所述管槽组件的第一区段；
(b)经过预定时间后，将所述第一区段的植物分配至第二区段的孔中；
重复上述步骤(a)，(b)。
优选地，植物在第一区段中的培养周期和在第二区段中的培养周期大体相同，使得第一区段和第二区段能够同步地利用。
优选地，所述方法进一步包括从所述管槽组件的一端导入营养液，使营养液在所述管槽组件中流动，然后从所述管槽组件的另一端排出。

图6是根据本发明的管槽组件未使用的叠加状态的示意图。
具体实施方式
图1示出了根据本发明的一个实施方案的管槽组件100。如图1所示，管槽组件100由管槽主体1和管槽盖2组成，管槽盖2上具有5个等间距分布的孔3，以允许植物或含有植物的容器穿过孔3，使植物放置在管槽组件100中。每个孔3之间的距离可以为例如约10cm-20cm。但是，孔3的数目和间距也可以根据无土栽培的植物的种类进行设定，以满足植物生长所需的空间。管槽主体1一端可以用于导入营养液，与其相对的一端可以用于营养液的流出，进行循环流动，使得营养液不断从管槽主体1的一端流向另一端，在整个管槽主体1中流动。管槽盖2位于管槽主体1的两侧面之间，沿管槽主体1的长度方向至少部分地覆盖管槽主体1的顶部开口，管槽盖2被管槽主体1中的突出元件(例如，图3中的凸台9)支撑，以相对于管槽主体1 滑动。优选地，管槽盖2的长度小于管槽主体1的长度。当植物生长过程中可以适当地移动管槽盖2以调整植物在管槽主体1中的位置，使得更好的控制其光照、风速等条件。在植物不易于从孔3中被自下而上地拔出的情况下，可以滑动管槽盖2，从而带动植物移动，使其脱离管槽主体而被摘取。
图2示出了图1的管槽组件100的管槽主体1的一部分。图3示出了图1的管槽组件100的侧视图。如图2和3中所示，管槽主体1具有一个底面4、第一侧面5和第二侧面6，底面4上设有多个间隔分布的凸棱7。凸棱7的截面大体上为半圆形；可替代地，也可以为其他形状，例如矩形、三角形等。凸棱7的高度例如约为5mm，且凸棱7可以沿管槽主体1的整个长度或部分长度延伸。可选地，凸棱7还可以在底面4上交错地部分延伸。底面4和第一侧面5以及第二侧面6的交界处分别形成有倾角部分8，倾角部分8可以减少应力集中，改善管槽组件100的稳定性。在本实施方案中，倾角部分8与底面4形成的角度大约为40°，但是本领域技术人员也可以设想其他角度或甚至圆角。
在第一侧面5和第二侧面6上分别设有朝向管槽主体1内部延伸的凸台9，凸台9的截面形状为矩形，以用于支撑管槽盖2。在本实施方案中，凸台9沿管槽主体1的整个长度上延伸，其突出的长度为例如8mm。管槽盖2与凸台9相接合，并由凸台9支撑，管槽盖2可以直接从管槽主体1的上方被取出，且可以在管槽主体1内滑动。
优选地，管槽盖2的顶部表面与管槽主体1的上表面齐平，显然，这是出于设计的美观考虑，在满足含有植物的容器所需的空间的前提下，管槽盖2相对于管槽主体1上表面的位置可任意确定。如图所示，管槽盖由管槽主体两侧面上的凸台9支撑，管槽盖可相对于凸台滑动。在示出的管槽盖2的结构中，其横截面为槽型；可替代地，管槽盖2也可以为平板或其他适合的形状。
从图3中可以看到，在营养液导入的一端处设有用于液体导管穿过的导入孔11。可以设想，供营养液排出的另一端是开放的；或者，供营养液排出的另一端也为闭合端，并且设置有用于液体排出的排出孔。
图4示出根据本发明的用于无土栽培植物的管槽组件的另一实施方案。如图4所示，管槽组件200还包括引流装置10。引流装置10位于管槽组件200的开放的一端，在本实施方案中，引流装置10与管槽主体1一体形成，向下弯曲且延伸至营养液回收槽(未示出)。当不具有引流装置10时，营养液可能沿着管槽主体1的底面4的外沿和外表面流走，这不利于营养液的回收循环，会造成溢流、滴流等问题，不利于清洁整洁。应领会，引流装置10可以以一体成型、热弯等多种方式形成，也可通过任何适合的方式，例如焊接、粘结、机械连接等方式附接至管槽主体1的开放的末端。从而，营养液可以沿着引流装置10流动至收集营养液的回收槽(未示出)。
图5示出了具有间隔分布的管槽盖的管槽组件，管槽组件被分为不同的区段，即不具有管槽盖的第一区段11和具有管槽盖的第二区段12。
在使用中，在第二区段12中，植物根据管槽盖上的孔的间距被放置在管槽组件中，在第一区段11中，植物以小于管槽盖上的孔的间距的距离放置在管槽组件中。优选地第一区段11放置的植物数量比第二区段12中放置的植物数量多，二者之间的比例例如可以是4：1，3：1或2：1。第二区段12中培养的植物的数目大体上等于管槽盖上的孔的数目。具体而言，管槽组件限定了适应于植物不同生长阶段的生长空间，当植物处于幼苗阶段时，所需生长空间较小，因此可以将其以较小间距放置在第一区段11中；随着幼苗逐渐长大，在达到预定的培养时间后，例如两周后可以将其移动至第二区段12中进行培养，使得为植物提供更大的生长空间。此时可以将另一批幼苗放置在闲置的第一区段11中进行培育，待达到两周的培养时间后，再将其放置在第二区段12中，重复上述步骤。优选地，植物在第一区段11中的培养周期和在第二区段12中的培养周期大体相同，使得第一区段和第二区段能够同步地利用。在植物生长过程中，营养液由管槽组件的一端被导入到管槽组件中， 并在其中流动为植物提供生长所需养分。这种配置提高了管槽组件的利用，且更加有利于植物适应于不同阶段的生长。
根据本发明的管槽组件可以单独使用，也可以成套使用。图6示出了管槽组件相互叠加放置状态下的示意图。在图中可以看到，由于管槽主体顶部具有开口，使得其可以被倒放且另外的管槽主体的侧面插入到其内部，以此方式，管槽主体占用的空间大大减小，对于多个管槽主体的情况，这种优势尤其明显。
应理解，上述实施方案仅出于示例和说明的目的，本领域技术人员在不偏离本发明范围的情况下，可以做出许多改型和变体。本发明的范围仅由所附的权利要求书限定。
