High-frequency drip micro-irrigation device using solar distillation

Abstract

The present invention relates to a high-frequency micro-drip irrigation device, suitable for installation on the ground, intended for irrigating plants in dry areas or in places where the use of conventional irrigation systems is not feasible. The device comprises a support structure, a water reservoir, a cover configured to promote water evaporation and condensation due to solar radiation, and at least one water collection zone that channels the water from the environment to the reservoir. The geometric arrangement of these elements allows the water to evaporate, condense on the inner surface of the cover, and be channeled by gravity to the ground in the form of droplets, without requiring electricity, excavation, or hydraulic infrastructure.The device can incorporate means to direct the condensed water towards a furrow or towards the root of a plant, and allows for different construction methods while maintaining the same physical operating principle.
