Simple and automatic watering system capable of monitoring soil humidity

Abstract

Provided is a simple and automatic watering system capable of monitoring soil humidity. The simple and automatic watering system capable of monitoring soil humidity has following features: roots do not rot; a simple structure is obtained; without power or connection of a water pipe, the watering system is low in cost. The system comprises a water tank and a plotted plant. A water pipe extends from the bottom of the water tank to the upper surface of soil on a flowerpot. One end of an air pipe is inserted into the top of the water tank and the other end of the air pipe is connected with a rubber air value. The water pipe and the air pipe are connected with the water tank through a plug such that an enclosed space is formed in the water tank. A humidity monitor comprises a lever, a support, and a weight. Cotton thread clusters are located at two ends of a saw-tooth surface in the middle of the lever. The support comprises an installing hole, a base and a cavity. The base is in contact with the saw-tooth surface to form a fulcrum of the lever. The support is contractible. The distance between an accommodation cavity and the fulcrum is adjustable. The cavity is used for accommodating cotton thread clusters and is a circular truncated cone with two ends not enclosed. Water absorption holes are arranged in the side wall at the lower part of the circular truncated cone. The installing hole is used for installing the rubber air valve connected with the weight through a connecting rod. The weight is connected with the rubber air valve through the connecting rod for controlling opening and closing of the weight.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an automatic flower watering system, in particular to an automatic flower watering system capable of monitoring soil humidity. Background technique [0002] In recent years, potted plants have gradually become the new favorite of urban white-collar workers. Whether it is a home, office, hotel or other public places, green plants are inseparable. However, due to various reasons, people neglect to take care of their beloved green plants. Death due to lack of water, although some automatic watering devices have been developed in the prior art, there are still various weak points. [0003] There are two main types of automatic watering systems on the market. The first one uses drip irrigation to replenish water in the soil. This method is simple, but the water in the roots of green plants is always saturated, which is easy to cause "rotten roots"; One uses a timing circuit to cooperate with a water pump to realize regular and quan...

[0002] In recent years, potted plants have gradually become the new favorite of urban white-collar workers. Whether it is a home, office, hotel or other public places, green plants are inseparable. However, due to various reasons, people neglect to take care of their beloved green plants. Death due to lack of water, although some automatic watering devices have been developed in the prior art, there are still various deficiencies

[0003] Now there are two main types of automatic watering systems on the market. The first one uses drip irrigation to replenish water in the soil. This method is simple, but the water in the roots of green plants is always saturated, which is easy to cause "rotten roots"; One uses a timing circuit to cooperate with a water pump to achieve regular and quantitative watering of flowers. Although this method has a better watering effect, it is expensive and its popularity is not high.
