(9) In this embodiment, a black-out cloth (not shown) is disposed on the frame 101, a support leg 108 is disposed on the bottom of the frame, and the support leg 108 is configured to limit and fix the movable seedling culturing shelf cart.

(10) In this embodiment, guide rails 109 are disposed on the bottom of the frame, and the width of the guide rails 109 matches the relative distance of the casters with breaks at the bottom of the board shelf. The support leg 108 and the guide rails 109 are integrally formed. Therefore, in this embodiment, the support leg 108 and the vertical support 102 are formed into a T-shaped structure, and the guide rails 109 are embedded in the oppositely disposed support leg 108.

(11) In this embodiment, fixing grooves are disposed on the guide rails 109, and snap-in portions matching the fixing grooves are disposed on the movable seedling culturing shelf cart.

Specifically referring to FIG. 4, the shown gear adjustment holes 205 are disposed on two sides of the board shelf 201. The fixation between the boards 202 and the gear adjustment holes 205 at different heights is adjusted by manually adjusting the tightness of screws to further adjust the heights of the boards.

(14) In this embodiment, funnels and/or water pipes are disposed on the movable seedling culturing shelf cart.

(15) A working principle of this embodiment is as follows: the heights of the boards 202 are adjusted by adjusting gear adjustment grooves of the seedling culturing shelf cart 20, to make the heights of the boards 202 match the heights of seeds that need to be planted. Seedlings are planted in the planting plates 203, and then the planting plates 203 are put on the boards 202. Correspondingly, the gear-toggling adjustment support disposed on the ventilating board 105 of the seedling culturing pedestal 10 is adjusted, and then the heights of the lamp panels 104 are adjusted through the fixed adjustment holes 106 fixed by the corbel supports 107 at different heights, to make the heights of the lamp panels 104 match the heights of the planting plates 203 on the boards 202 of the seedling culturing shelf cart 20. In this way, the light sources on the lamp panels 104 can provide the growing light sources for the plants of the whole planting plates 203. A whole fixed module is the seedling culturing pedestal, and the seedling culturing pedestal is composed of a light source module, an irrigation module and an environment control module. The light source module is composed of the lamp panels and support arms, and the different heights are fixed by the evenly distributed fixed adjustment holes on the ventilating board; a main pipe line of the irrigation module is hidden in the fixed module, and can implement technologies such as tidal irrigation, drip irrigation and spraying; the environment control module has an upper exhaust outlet and an inside ventilating board to control the balance of a seedling culturing environment and ensure the seedlings to grow consistently. A mobile module is the seedling culturing shelf cart, and the guide rails are disposed on the seedling culturing shelf cart, and seedling culturing trays may be put on the guide rails. A mechanism that can adjust the shelf heights is designed on the shelf, so that the shelf heights may be quickly adjusted according to the growing heights of different plants, to facilitate carriage and implementing automated transportation. The multifunctional seedling culturing apparatus implements modularization. One and more rows can be assembled and spliced to form a set by a plurality of modules (multifunctional seedling culturing apparatus), the modules can be dissembled and assembled, to quickly build small-sized, medium-sized, and large-sized seedling culturing factories.

(16) As shown in FIG. 1, the fixed seedling culturing pedestal matches the one or more movable seedling culturing shelf carts, and therefore, in this embodiment, a plurality of groups of splicing can be combined, to save space. The flexibility is high. The seedling culturing shelf cart is movable, and the heights of layers can be changed. The problems of a low utility rate of space and unicity of cultured seedlings are resolved. To a large extent, the human labor cost problem is resolved, and working time efficiency is increased.

(17) In this embodiment, ventilation and heat dissipation of a set of system are performed through cooling by a simple individual module environment control system, and integrated heat dissipation, air exhaustion and cooling may be implemented through series connection. Therefore, in the cooling system, the cost of device development can be reduced, and in addition, the heat dissipation of seedlings is improved, and the heat dissipation and ventilation area is increased.

(18) In this embodiment, a carrier of the seedling culturing apparatus is in a three-dimensional hollow structure. In an LED lamp source module, different layer heights are quickly changed by the fixed adjustment holes on an apparatus board, and the tightness only needs to be adjusted by hands, and tools do not need to be used. The seedling culturing shelf cart in the seedling culturing apparatus is also adjustable, and different layer heights are also quickly adjusted through the fixed adjustment holes.
