Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of desert water conservation and sand fixation technology, and in particular to a water conservation and sand fixation device and method for desert windbreak and sand fixation forests. Background Technology
[0002] Desert windbreak and sand-fixing forests are protective forests specifically created in deserts or areas severely affected by wind and sand erosion to reduce wind speed, stabilize shifting sand, improve soil, and protect surrounding areas from such attacks. The afforestation process involves selecting suitable tree species based on the climate and soil conditions of the desert region, combining trees and shrubs to form a multi-layered protective system, setting up sand barriers in the early stages of afforestation to reduce wind erosion and protect the survival and growth of trees, and implementing scientific irrigation based on the growth needs of the trees and the water resources available in the desert region.
[0003] A search revealed that Chinese patent CN118923389A discloses a water-conserving and sand-fixing device and method for desert windbreak and sand-fixing forests. The device includes a conical frame buried in a sand pit, with an inner conical frame inside, the bottom of which is connected to the outer conical frame. A gap exists between the outer side of the conical frame and its inner wall. Several strip-shaped grooves are distributed along the extension of the four inner walls of the inner conical frame. A water storage unit is installed on the conical frame. Water is replenished into the water storage unit via an external water supply device. The water storage unit then evenly distributes its internal water to the sand inside the inner conical frame, thus replenishing the roots of the seedlings within the inner conical frame. A support unit supports the seedlings to prevent them from tilting. A winding component works in conjunction with the support unit to adjust the water supply of the water storage unit based on the growth of the seedlings and changes in their outer diameter, thus avoiding water waste.
[0004] However, in actual use, the above-mentioned device irrigates the plant roots by passing water from the water storage unit through the sand bottom. However, over time, the irrigation pipes buried in the sand bottom are prone to backflow of sand, which will cause sand to accumulate in the pipe walls, resulting in reduced irrigation efficiency and hindering the growth of seedlings. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a water-conserving and sand-fixing device and method for desert windbreak and sand-fixing forests. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies where water from the water storage unit is used to irrigate plant roots through the sand bottom. However, over time, the irrigation pipes buried in the sand bottom are prone to backflow of sand, which leads to sand accumulation inside the pipe walls, resulting in reduced irrigation efficiency and hindering the growth of seedlings. Therefore, this invention proposes a water-conserving and sand-fixing device and method for desert windbreak and sand-fixing forests.

A root canal cleaning mechanism is installed inside the connecting frame plate. The root canal cleaning mechanism includes a first motor installed inside the connecting frame plate. A drive rod is installed at the output end of the first motor. A first bevel gear is fixedly connected to the side of the drive rod away from the first motor. A second bevel gear is meshed with the side of the first bevel gear. A connecting rod is fixedly connected to the side of the second bevel gear. A bevel gear set is drivenly connected to the side of the connecting rod away from the second bevel gear. The bevel gear set...

A pressure plate is fixedly connected below the movable plate, and a pressure rod is fixedly connected to the side of the pressure plate away from the movable plate. An irrigation root tube is set below the soil-buried plate. After the first motor is started, it drives the first bevel gear to rotate through the drive rod. The first bevel gear drives the connecting rod and the bevel gear set to rotate through the second bevel gear. The bevel gear set drives the movable plate to move through the threaded rod. The movable plate drives the pressure rod to slide on the inner wall of the irrigation root tube through the pressure plate and clean the attached sand.
[0008] The above technical solution further includes:

[0015] The first bevel gear is meshed with a third bevel gear on the side away from the second bevel gear.
[0016] The third bevel gear drives another set of pressure rods and irrigation tubes to move and clean, achieving double-sided cleaning operations.
[0017] A method for using a water-conserving and sand-fixing device for desert windbreak and sand-fixing forests includes the following steps:
[0018] Step 1: Start the root canal cleaning mechanism installed inside the connecting frame plate fixed above the soil slab, and the first motor in the root canal cleaning mechanism will start running;

The first bevel gear drives the second bevel gear to rotate through a meshing connection, and the second bevel gear drives the connecting rod to rotate on the inner wall of the square groove.
[0020] Step 3: The connecting rod drives the lower bevel gear set to rotate, the bevel gear set drives the lower threaded rod to rotate on the inner wall of the square groove, the threaded rod drives the moving plate to slide on the inner wall of the square groove through the threaded connection, and the moving plate drives the pressure rod to move towards the bottom of the buried plate;
[0021] Step 4: The pressure rod gradually approaches the inner wall of the irrigation root canal, and the pressure rod begins to slide on the inner wall of the irrigation root canal, cleaning up the attached sand and pressing it into the soil depth.
[0022] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0023] 9. In this invention, the rotation of the drive rod and the first bevel gear is driven by the first motor, and the movement of the moving plate and the pressure rod on the inner wall of the irrigation root tube is achieved through the transmission of the second bevel gear, the connecting rod, the bevel gear set and the threaded rod.

A pressure rod 13 is fixedly connected to the side of the pressure plate 12 away from the movable plate 11. A water-irrigating root tube 14 is set below the soil-buried plate 1. After the first motor 4 is started, it drives the first bevel gear 6 to rotate through the drive rod 5. The first bevel gear 6 drives the connecting rod 8 and the bevel gear set 9 to rotate through the second bevel gear 7. The bevel gear set 9 drives the movable plate 11 to move through the threaded rod 10. The movable plate 11 drives the pressure rod 13 to slide on the inner wall of the water-irrigating root tube 14 through the pressure plate 12 and clean the attached sand.
[0036] The connecting frame plate 2 has a square groove 3 inside. The first motor 4 is fixedly installed inside the square groove 3.

The other end of the connecting pipes 22 is fixedly connected to a water pump box 23. The rainwater enters the water pump box 23 through the two sets of connecting pipes 22. When the plants need irrigation, the water pump box 23 transmits the rainwater to the soil-buried plate 1 through two sets of transmission pipes 24 fixedly connected at the bottom. Then, the plants are irrigated efficiently through multiple sets of irrigation root pipes 14.
