  • Publication number: 20140144079
    Abstract: A plant culturing equipment is composed of a plurality of planting walls, a plurality of lamp racks and a circulation fluid supply component, wherein the planting walls are mutually disposed in parallel, and the lamp rack is disposed relative to the planting walls to supply light source to the colonization board. The circulation fluid supply component is composed of connecting a plurality of fluid supply members, a fluid collection member, a plurality of pipes and a motor so as to form a circulation loop for the culture fluid. The fluid supply member is disposed onto the colonization board and fastened to the planting walls. The culture fluid is circularly utilized to supply plants. The plants are illuminated by the light source of the lamp board to replace natural light so as to control the speed of growing plants. The colonization board is pulled and pushed by the first sliding component.

  • Publication number: 20140069009
    Abstract: A hydroponic circulation liquid supply device is composed of a tray body, a liquid supply platform and a motor. The tray body has a containing space for disposing a liquid supply platform. The liquid supply platform is formed with a liquid supply region and a guide passage region communicating with each other by disposing a first rib. The liquid supply region is disposed with a plurality of second ribs to form a liquid supply passage. A water collection region is further disposed in the tray body. The liquid supply region and the guide passage region have a section difference plane. The motor is engaged with the water collection region and the liquid supply region respectively to form a flowing circulation loop of transporting culture liquid, and the flowing speed of culture liquid can be slowed down.

  • Publication number: 20140000163
    Abstract: A water culture hydroponics system of the invention is mainly disposed with a box body. At least one vertical plane of the box body is disposed with a plurality of openings for placing plants. At least one water pipe is disposed onto an inner side of the box body. The surface of the water pipe is disposed with a plurality of water spraying holes such that fluid within the water pipe is sprayed toward the plants from each water spraying hole. An exterior of the box body is disposed with at least one lamp wall for providing lateral light source to the plants to allow the inside of the box body to achieve optimum uniform moisture effect, and in conjunction with the irradiation of light beam, an effect of culturing and growing plants can be facilitated.

  • Publication number: 20130340338
    Abstract: The present invention is to provide a hydroponic device for liquid supply, which includes a plate, a bottle and a pump. The plate has an open space for filing liquid therein, and a diversion panel is mounted in the open space to separate a first flume, a second flume and a connection set. The bottle pours the liquid (e.g. culture solution) slowly into the plate via breaking through the surface tension of water. The motor is connected to the second flume and the connection set to pump the liquid, and the first flume introduces the liquid into the second flume through the connection set, to form a circulating fluid loop. As such, the present invention achieves the purposes of reducing the losses of water and nutrient for hydroponic culture such that the liquid can be utilized repeatedly via flowing through the circulating loop to accelerate the growing of plants.
