Задача - упрощение конструкции теплицы при повышении технологичности ее изготовления и удобства эксплуатации. Теплица-купе (фиг.1, 2) содержит основание 1, выполненное в виде короба, в который засыпают грунт, и к которому прикреплен каркас 2, имеющий в профиль трапециевидную форму и состоящий из прямолинейных торцевых и боковых наклонных элементов 3, соединенных между собой с помощью прямолинейных торцевых горизонтальных верхних и нижних торцевых элементов 4', 4” и 5', 5” и, боковых горизонтальных верхних и нижних элементов 6', 6” и 7', 7”.. При этом боковые наклонные элементы 3 служат одновременно ребрами жесткости каркаса 2 и расположены под углом 60-80° к горизонтали. В горизонтальных верхних и нижних боковых элементах 6 и 7 каркаса 2 имеются направляющие 8 с одним или двумя продольными пазами 9 (9' и 9”). Пазы 9 с краев незамкнуты (фиг.3). Светопрозрачное покрытие выполнено в виде отдельных плоских листов: лист 10 жестко прикреплен сверху к горизонтальным верхним боковым элементам 4 и 5, к торцевым элементам 3 съемно прикреплены торцевые листы 11 и 12, а для каждой из боковых стенок использовано по два отдельных плоских листа 13 (13') и 14 (14'), установленных с частичным нахлестом каждый в продольных пазах 9' и 9” своих направляющих 8' и 8” с возможностью встречного или противонаправленного параллельного перемещения по горизонтали. Размер каждого из боковых листов 13 и 14 превышает половину длины горизонтальных боковых элементов 6 и 7. К основанию 1 каркас 2 жестко прикреплен с помощью крепежных элементов (например, винтов-саморезов). Внутри теплицы посредине вдоль нее может быть закреплена вертикально крупная сетка 15 для возможности фиксации к ней побегов растений. Теплица-купе может быть выполнена разных по ...

Светодиодный облучатель

Номер: RU0000192891U1

Полезная модель относится к сельскому хозяйству, а именно к устройствам для обработки семян перед посевом.Заявляемый светодиодный облучатель для предпосевной обработки семян содержит корпус прямоугольной формы, блок электрического питания, закрепленную на корпусе одну линейную плату светодиодов, центральные оси световых потоков которых направлены в одну сторону к лицевой поверхности корпуса и перпендикулярно его плоскости. При этом светодиоды представляют собой конструкцию, содержащую последовательно расположенные светодиодный кристалл с максимумом излучения в диапазоне 270-390 нм, и, как минимум, два слоя оптически полупрозрачного компаунда с различными коллоидными квантовыми точками со спектрами переизлучения, максимумы которых лежат диапазонах 430-480 и 620-680 нм, разделенными при необходимости буферными и защитными слоями светопрозрачного компаунда. Материал лицевой панели корпуса прозрачен для всех трех диапазонов длин волн.Экспериментально подтверждена работоспособность устройства.Установлено, что общее количество светодиодов при сохранении интенсивности светового потока по сравнению с прототипом уменьшается в три раза, что позволяет уменьшить габаритные размеры облучателя. 2 ил.

Compact high brightness led grow light apparatus, using an extended point source led array with light emitting diodes

Номер: US20120043907A1
Принадлежит: Dicon Fiberoptics Inc

A compact high-brightness LED grow light fixture is described for use in growing plants under artificial light, or as a supplement to natural sunlight. The LED grow light uses a densely-packed array of high-brightness light emitting diodes (LEDs) that are not individually packaged where the array behaves similarly to a point source of light. The LED chips are distributed laterally over an area, where the LED chips have light emitting surfaces for emitting light in directions transverse to said area, wherein the dimensions of the area do not exceed 25 mm. Adjacent chips of the array are preferably separated by less than about 0.2 mm. The extended point source LED array, with its lens and associated reflector, result in a concentrated, partially-collimated light source, such that the intensity of the light does not diminish rapidly as distance from the light source increases. Thus, foliage that is lower down on the plant will receive almost as much light energy as does foliage on the top of the plant. The compact LED grow light does not block much of the natural sunlight, making the LED grow light suitable for use as a supplement to natural sunlight. The LED array contains a plurality of LED strings that may be separately controlled, thereby allowing the spectral content of the LED grow light to be varied, to facilitate desired plant growth at various stages of plant life. Multiple wavelengths of LEDs may be used within each LED string, thereby allowing the ability to further optimize the spectral content of the LED grow light. Due to the compact size of the LED grow light, the light emitted at each of the multiple different wavelengths from the array is evenly distributed, when the objects being illuminated by the array are at a distance of less than about 6 feet or even less than 1 foot from the array. Flexible mounting options allow for the use of multiple compact LED grow lights within a single plant growing area, and also allow for side or bottom lighting of ...

An air cooled horticulture lamp fixture for growing plants in confined indoor spaces. The fixture seals the lamp and heat generated by the same to a reflector interior. Flow disruptors create turbulence in a cooling chamber thereby enhancing thermal transfer into a cooling air stream that flows over and around the reflector's exterior side thereby convectively cooling the lamp using the reflector as a heat sink. The lamp is effectively maintained at operational temperatures and the fixture housing is insulated from the hotter reflector by a gap of moving cooling air, allowing improved efficiencies of the lamp bulb in confined indoor growing spaces. 1.

A light harvester or collector collects solar radiation from an unshaded location adjacent a growing plant. The light harvester can be either imaging (e.g., parabolic reflectors) or non-imaging (e.g., compound parabolic concentrator). The concentrated solar radiation is projected into a light transmitter that conducts the light through the plant's outer canopy and into the inner canopy to a diffuser which disperses and reradiates the light into the inner canopy. The diffused light transforms a non-productive, potentially leafless zone of the plant into a productive zone so that more fruit can be produced per volume of land surface. The system can prevent transmission of infrared into the inner canopy so that the inner canopy zone is not heated and the amount of water lost to transpiration is reduced. The system can also modify other spectral components to affect plant development and to control pests and diseases. 1.
