Patent overview
This patent aims to improve hydroponic technology, particularly focusing on achieving efficient cultivation and cleanability in vertical hydroponic systems. The hydroponic cultivation unit includes multiple cylindrical segments and planting parts, allowing for high-density cultivation of plants. Each part is detachable for easy cleaning. The liquid supply system is configured to supply nutrient solutions with different components and concentrations, enabling efficient delivery of liquids to the plants.
Unique aspects of the patent
- Detachable structure of each component
- Efficient liquid supply system
- Design that allows for easy cleaning
Traditional issues
Conventional hydroponic systems have faced issues such as low cultivation efficiency and difficulty in cleaning. Additionally, the efficiency of liquid supply is poor, leading to higher costs. Particularly in vertical hydroponic systems, plant growth tends to be uneven, resulting in lower overall yield. To address these challenges, there has been a demand for a more efficient and easily cleanable system.
Solution
This patent addresses conventional challenges by providing a hydroponic cultivation unit that combines multiple cylindrical segments and planting parts. Each component can be easily detached using friction, hook, or screw mechanisms, facilitating easy cleaning. Moreover, the liquid supply system efficiently supplies liquids to promote plant growth. Additionally, a recycling system using a liquid receiving bed reduces waste and helps control costs.
Patent features
- Technology that allows for high-density cultivation of plants
- Technology that improves cleanability
- Technology that streamlines liquid supply
