Abstract

L'invention concerne un appareil et un procédé d'agriculture à environnement contrôlé autonome (CEA) comprenant un environnement de croissance entièrement autonome. Plus particulièrement, l'invention concerne un appareil et un procédé dans lesquels une pluralité d'ensembles cadres peuvent être stockés et manipulés à l'intérieur d'un ensemble de rails qui est configuré à l'intérieur d'un ensemble bâti par l'intermédiaire de l'entrée motivationnelle de manipulateurs montés sur chariot. Chaque ensemble cadre est configuré pour être couplé à un ensemble cadre adjacent supporté par l'ensemble de rails par au moins un coupleur disposé sur une extrémité avant et une extrémité arrière de chaque ensemble cadre. Comme l'ensemble cadre comporte une surface d'appui à faible frottement pour l'orientation à l'intérieur d'un ensemble de rails, il peut être configuré pour satisfaire à diverses fonctionnalités nécessaires dans la ferme, telles que, mais sans s'y limiter : l'hébergement d'un milieu de croissance pour la culture ou l'hébergement de systèmes électromécaniques.
