Device for growing mushrooms

Abstract

The present invention relates to a device for growing mushrooms, including beds for holding compost and a shelving arranged for supporting the beds for holding compost. The beds are placed at a mutual distance above each other. The beds are movable between at least a first position, wherein a second bed supported above a first bed at least partially impedes the accessibility of the first bed in a direction perpendicular to the plane in which the first bed extends, and a second position in which at least a larger part of the first bed is free approachable from a direction perpendicular to the plane in which the first bed extends than in the first position. The shelving includes at least one portal. The portal includes at least two essentially vertical stands connected by at least one beam that extends from a first stand to the second stand. At least two beds are movably supported by the at least one beam.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A device for growing mushrooms, comprising:
 a plurality of beds for holding compost;   a shelving arranged for supporting the beds for holding compost, wherein the beds are placed at a mutual distance above each other, and the beds are movable between at least:
 a first position, wherein a second bed supported above a first bed at least partially impedes the accessibility of the first bed in a direction perpendicular to the plane in which the first bed extends; and 
 a second position in which at least a larger part of the first bed is freely approachable from a direction perpendicular to the plane in which the first bed extends when in the first position, wherein the shelving comprises at least one portal, and wherein the portal comprises at least two essentially vertical stands that are connected by at least one beam that extends from a first stand to a second stand, and the plurality of beds are movably supported by the at least one beam.
