Abstract

As many consumers prefer good quality food, farms have used various facilities to cultivate products for satisfying their desires. Among them, the most representative facilities are plastic and glass multi-span greenhouse. The height of both plastic greenhouse and glass greenhouse is around three meters high in Korea. As a result, the crop productivity is limited. The solution is to increase the height of the greenhouses to improve the greenhouses' environment. The device for raising columns consists of a stop device, a pneumatic cylinder, and a vertical member. Pneumatic cylinders were designed with a diameter of 160 mm and a stroke length of 50 mm, taking into consideration the safety factor of 1.5. In addition, the air flow was controlled by nozzle to achieve a time of less than 30 seconds per stroke. It was calculated that $21.5L{\cdot}min^{-1}$ of air was needed to complete in less than 30 seconds. Accordingly, the diameter of the nozzle is designed to be 0.5 mm. When the pressure was 0.9 MPa, the average raising force was 13,805N, which was close to the calculated value of 15,612N. The field test results show that any inconsistency in the row columns was not generated. and that it is considered applicable to the actual glass and plastic greenhouses.

대부분의 소비자들이 질 좋은 음식을 선호하기 때문에, 농장에서는 소비자들의 욕구를 충족시키기 위해 다양한 시설을 이용하고 있다. 가장 대표적인 시설은 플라스틱 온실과 유리온실이다. 국내의 플라스틱 온실 과 유리 온실의 측고는 3m 내외이다. 결과적으로 작물의 생산성이 제한되고, 이를 해결하기 위해서는 기둥의 높이를 증가시켜 온실의 측고를 높이는 것이다. 온실 기둥상승 장치는 멈춤장치, 공압 실린더 및 수직 부재 등으로 구성된다. 공압 실린더는 안전계수 1.5를 고려하여 직경 160mm와 행정길이 50mm로 설계하였으며, 노즐을 통하여 공기의 압력을 제어하였다. 1행정 시간을 30초 내외로 설계하기 위해서는 $21.5L{\cdot}min^{-1}$ 공기가 필요한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 노즐의 직경은 0.5mm로 설계하였다. 압력이 0.9 MPa일 때 평균 인상력은 13,805N으로 계산된 값 15,612N에 근접하였다. 현장 시험결과 같은 열의 기둥과 오차가 발생하지 않았으며, 실제 유리 및 플라스틱 온실에 적용 가능한 것으로 판단되었다.
