Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of deep-buried drip irrigation belt maintenance, and more specifically, to a deep-buried drip irrigation belt maintenance device. Background Art
[0002] Deep drip irrigation uses a pipe system to deliver water. Emitters attached to buried drip tape slowly infiltrate water or fertilizer solution into the soil. Capillary action or gravity then diffuses the water to the root zone for crop absorption and utilization. The earliest documented evidence of deep drip irrigation technology dates back over 2,000 years to China: clay containers filled with water were buried underground to moisten plant roots. This technology has a wide range of applications, primarily irrigating crops using buried drip tape. It is suitable for wheat, corn, soybeans, peanuts, rapeseed, fruits and vegetables, and other crops used in protected agriculture. Deep drip irrigation has been widely used over the past 30 years.
[0003] During summer and autumn, field pests are active, and drip tape is often damaged by pests such as crickets and wireworms. The soil surface above the damaged drip tape typically shows large, noticeable signs of moisture or water accumulation. During repairs, it's often necessary to shut off the water supply to prevent extensive leakage from the damaged area, which could affect the accuracy of the repair. However, insect bites on drip tape are small and hidden, and mud from leaking areas can adhere to the surface of the tape, further complicating the task of locating the damaged area. Furthermore, the adhered mud can hinder repairs such as cutting the tape in sections.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a new solution to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0022] Embodiment: A deep buried drip irrigation belt maintenance device, such as Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, it includes a first handle 1 and a second handle 2, one end of the first handle 1 and one end of the second handle 2 are hinged by a pin 3, and the first handle 1 and the second handle 2 are combined to form a V-shaped structure. A first blade 101 and a first rubber strip 102 are installed on the inner side of the first handle 1 (i.e., the side facing the second handle 2) and along its one end to the other end, and a second blade 201 and a second rubber strip 202 are installed on the inner side of the second handle 2 (i.e., the side facing the first handle 1) and along its one end to the other end, the first blade 101 and the second blade 201 correspond to each other, and the first rubber strip 102 and the second rubber strip 202 correspond to each other. A spring 4 is provided between the first handle 1 and the second handle 2, the spring 4 is located at the pin 3, and the two ends of the spring 4 are respectively connected to one end of the first handle 1 and one end of the second handle 2.
[0023] During use, the approximate location of the leak is determined based on the surface water accumulation in the field soil, and the soil above the damaged drip irrigation tape is dug up; then, the first handle 1 and the second handle 2 are held and pressed, so that the first handle 1 and the second handle 2 rotate about the pin 3 and move closer to each other, and the drip irrigation tape is clamped by the first adhesive strip 102 and the second adhesive strip 202; then, while maintaining the clamping state of the first adhesive strip 102 and the second adhesive strip 202 on the drip irrigation tape, the first handle 1 and the second handle 2 are moved from one end of the drip irrigation tape to the other end of the drip irrigation tape, and the mud on the surface of the drip irrigation tape is scraped cleanly by the first adhesive strip 102 and the second adhesive strip 202; Then, check the surface of the drip irrigation tape. If there are small bumps and depressions on the surface of the drip irrigation tape that are not in the shape of a dripper, or if there are burrs on its edges accompanied by soil residue, and water flows out of the above-mentioned position when the drip irrigation tape is pressed, it can be determined that this is a damaged position caused by insect bites. Select appropriate sizes at the front and back ends of the damaged position (avoid the dripper position and retain enough length to replace the joint accessories), clamp the drip irrigation tape with the first blade 101 and the second blade 201, apply pressure to the first handle 1 and the second handle 2, and use the first blade 101 and the second blade 201 to cut off the section that needs to be replaced to facilitate the subsequent installation of the replacement section.
[0024] By providing the spring 4, on the one hand, the first handle 1 and the second handle 2 are connected by the spring 4, and on the other hand, the first handle 1 and the second handle 2 have the effect of automatically rebounding and returning to their original position after being pressed, so as to facilitate the next pressure application.
[0025] By setting the first rubber strip 102 and the second rubber strip 202, the first rubber strip 102 and the second rubber strip 202 are used to scrape off the mud attached to the drip irrigation belt, and some mud will remain at the damaged part due to the unevenness of the insect bite; therefore, it is easy to accurately locate the damaged part of the drip irrigation belt.
[0026] The first blade 101 and the second blade 201 are provided to cut the drip irrigation tape and remove the damaged section of the drip irrigation tape.
[0027] Preferably, the length of the first handle 1 and the second handle 2 is about 15 cm, so as to facilitate single-handed grasping.
[0028] Furthermore, a first stopper 103 is provided between the first blade 101 and the first rubber strip 102, and is mounted on the inner side of the first handle 1. A second stopper 203 is provided between the second blade 201 and the second rubber strip 202, and is mounted on the inner side of the second handle 2. The first stopper 103 is used to separate the first blade 101 from the first rubber strip 102, and the second stopper 203 is used to separate the second blade 201 from the second rubber strip 202. When the first rubber strip 102 and the second rubber strip 202 cooperate to clamp the drip irrigation tape, the first stopper 103 and the second stopper 203 are used to hold the drip irrigation tape in place, thereby preventing the first blade 101 and the second blade 201 from damaging the drip irrigation tape.
[0029] Further, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a first mounting groove 104 is provided at the other end of the first handle 1 and located on the inner side of the first handle 1. The first mounting groove 104 is provided with a first inlet 106. The first blade 101, the first stopper 103 and the first rubber strip 102 are installed on the first mounting groove 104 through the first inlet 106. The first blade 101, the first stopper 103 and the first rubber strip 102 are slidably connected to the first mounting groove 104. The first mounting groove 104 is provided to facilitate installation of the first blade 101, the first stopper 103, and the first rubber strip 102 on the first handle 1, and the first mounting groove 104 restricts the first blade 101, the first stopper 103, and the first rubber strip 102. The first inlet 106 is provided to facilitate installation of the first blade 101, the first stopper 103, and the first rubber strip 102 into the first mounting groove 104. The first blade 101, the first stopper 103, and the first rubber strip 102 are slidably connected to the first mounting groove 104 to facilitate movement of the first blade 101, the first stopper 103, and the first rubber strip 102 to their respective mounting positions. Furthermore, the above design allows for disassembly, assembly, and replacement of the first blade 101 and the first rubber strip 102.
[0030] Preferably, grooves can be opened on the groove walls on both sides of the first mounting groove 104, and the grooves are arranged along the length direction of the first mounting groove 104. Raised ridges adapted to the grooves are provided on the first blade 101, the first stop block 103 and the first rubber strip 102, and the raised ridges are slidably connected to the grooves. Through the cooperation of the raised ridges and the grooves, the first blade 101, the first stop block 103 and the first rubber strip 102 can be restricted to prevent the first blade 101, the first stop block 103 and the first rubber strip 102 from escaping from the first mounting groove 104 in the longitudinal direction.
[0031] Preferably, a first clamping block 105 is installed at the first entrance 106 of the first mounting groove 104. The first clamping block 105 is used to block the first entrance 106 of the first mounting groove 104, thereby restricting the first blade 101, the first stopper 103, and the first rubber strip 102, preventing the first blade 101, the first stopper 103, and the first rubber strip 102 from lateral movement out of the first mounting groove 104. The first clamping block 105 can be made of rubber and is secured to the first entrance 106 through an interference fit, facilitating assembly and disassembly.
[0032] Furthermore, a second mounting groove 204 is provided at the other end of the second handle 2 and located on the inner side of the second handle 2, and the second mounting groove 204 is provided with a second entrance 206.

The second inlet 206 facilitates the installation of the second blade 201, the second stopper 203, and the second rubber strip 202 into the second mounting groove 204. The second blade 201, the second stopper 203, and the second rubber strip 202 are slidably connected to the second mounting groove 204 to facilitate the movement of the second blade 201, the second stopper 203, and the second rubber strip 202 to their respective mounting positions. Furthermore, the above design allows the second blade 201 and the second rubber strip 202 to be disassembled, assembled, and replaced.
[0033] Preferably, grooves can be opened on the groove walls on both sides of the second mounting groove 204, and the grooves are arranged along the length direction of the second mounting groove 204. Raised ridges adapted to the grooves are provided on the second blade 201, the second stop block 203 and the second rubber strip 202, and the raised ridges are slidably connected to the grooves. Through the cooperation of the raised ridges and the grooves, the second blade 201, the second stop block 203 and the second rubber strip 202 can be restricted to prevent the second blade 201, the second stop block 203 and the second rubber strip 202 from escaping from the second mounting groove 204 in the longitudinal direction.
[0034] Preferably, a second clamping block 205 is installed at the second entrance 206 of the second mounting slot 204. The second clamping block 205 is used to block the second entrance 206 of the second mounting slot 204, thereby restricting the second blade 201, the second stopper 203, and the second rubber strip 202, preventing them from laterally disengaging from the second mounting slot 204. The second clamping block 205 can be made of rubber and engages with the second entrance 206 through an interference fit, facilitating assembly and disassembly.
[0035] The method of using the above maintenance device is as follows:
[0036] Step S1: Determine the approximate location of the leak based on the surface water accumulation of the field soil, and dig up the soil above the damaged drip irrigation tape;
[0037] Step S2: Grip the first handle 1 and the second handle 2 and apply pressure to rotate the first handle 1 and the second handle 2 around the pin 3 and move closer to each other, and use the first rubber strip 102 and the second rubber strip 202 to clamp the drip irrigation tape.
[0038] Step S3: Keeping the first rubber strip 102 and the second rubber strip 202 clamping the drip irrigation tape, move the first handle 1 and the second handle 2 from one end of the drip irrigation tape to the other end of the drip irrigation tape, and use the first rubber strip 102 and the second rubber strip 202 to scrape off the mud on the surface of the drip irrigation tape;
[0039] Step S4: Check the surface of the drip irrigation tape. If there are small uneven areas that are not in the shape of a dripper, or if there are burrs on the edges of the drip irrigation tape accompanied by soil residue, and water flows out of the areas when the drip irrigation tape is pressed, it can be determined that the areas are damaged by insect bites.
[0040] Step S5: Select appropriate sizes at both ends of the damaged area (avoiding the dripper position and leaving enough length to replace the connector accessories), clamp the drip irrigation tape using the first blade 101 and the second blade 201, apply pressure to the first handle 1 and the second handle 2, and use the first blade 101 and the second blade 201 to cut off the section that needs to be replaced;
[0041] Step S6, if the first blade 101 and the first rubber strip 102 are worn out and fail, pull the first clamping block 105 outward to disengage it from the first mounting groove 104, replace the first blade 101 and the first rubber strip 102, and then install the first clamping block 105 in the first mounting groove 104 to restrict the first blade 101 and the first rubber strip 102; if the second blade 201 and the second rubber strip 202 are worn out and fail, pull the second clamping block 205 outward to disengage it from the second mounting groove 204, replace the second blade 201 and the second rubber strip 202, and then install the second clamping block 205 in the second mounting groove 204 to restrict the second blade 201 and the second rubber strip 202.
