Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of emitters, in particular to a sheet-type emitter for Yellow River drip irrigation. Background Art

[0002] The Yellow River Basin is a resource-scarce region characterized by limited water resources and abundant sediment, an unbalanced water-sediment relationship, and a highly uneven distribution of water and arable land resources. These characteristics underpin the crucial role of Yellow River irrigation in agricultural production. Implementing total water resource control, as well as the allocation and rational transfer of water rights, has become a crucial measure to ensure the sustainable utilization of water resources and the coordinated development of socioeconomic and irrigated agriculture in the Yellow River Basin. Drip irrigation, which delivers irrigation water at low pressure and low flow rates to the crop root zone, slowly and evenly infiltrates the soil, meeting crop needs and significantly reducing water consumption and increasing yields. Slice-type drip irrigation technology effectively conserves water, increases yield, improves agricultural product quality, and conserves water, fertilizer, and labor. Its benefits are widely recognized, and its theoretical foundation has been fully developed in practice. However, with the rapid development of industry and agriculture in the Yellow River Basin, the water resources of the Yellow River are becoming increasingly scarce. Drought and water shortage have seriously restricted the economic and social development of the Yellow River irrigation area. The use of Yellow River drip irrigation has become an important way to alleviate the water shortage problem in the Yellow River area. The Yellow River drip irrigation technology has also played an important role in the implementation of a number of major projects such as the "four 10 million mu" water-saving irrigation in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region and the Ningmeng Yellow River water rights conversion. With the advancement of Yellow River drip irrigation, the drip irrigation system has continued to develop. Among them, the most serious impact on the drip irrigation system is the blockage of the drip irrigation system, and the most prominent manifestation of the blockage of the drip irrigation system is the blockage of the emitter. The main reason is that the flow channel size of the emitter is generally only 0.5-1.2mm. Impurities such as suspended matter, dissolved salts, chemical precipitation, organic matter, and microorganisms in the water can easily cause the emitter to be blocked. Emitter clogging has become a key obstacle in the promotion and application of drip irrigation technology. The success of its solution directly determines the service life and application benefits of the drip irrigation system. However, due to the high sediment content of the Yellow River itself, although various engineering measures can effectively control the content of suspended particulate matter, it is impossible to completely remove it. A large number of smaller particles still pass through the filter into the drip irrigation system, causing blockage in the emitter and affecting its use. For this reason, we proposed a sheet-type emitter for Yellow River drip irrigation. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solutions: a sheet-type emitter for Yellow River drip irrigation, comprising an emitter base, a water inlet pipe fixedly installed on one side of the emitter base, and a water outlet assembly installed on the top of the emitter base, a fixing seat installed in the middle of the emitter base, and a connecting conversion seat movably sleeved in a circular shape inside the emitter base, a plurality of arc-shaped connecting water channels are formed through the connecting conversion seat, the outer ends of the connecting water channels can be connected to the water inlet pipe, and a filter screen is fixedly installed inside the inner ends of the connecting water channels, a delivery water channel that can be connected to the water outlet assembly is formed on the fixing seat, one end of the delivery water channel can be connected to a connecting water channel together with the water inlet pipe, and a water flow pushing device that can drive the water outlet assembly to rotate is installed in the fixing seat, and a ratchet mechanism that can limit the connecting conversion seat is installed in the emitter base.

[0008] Optionally, a detachable cover is installed on the top of the emitter base, and a rubber sealing gasket is provided at the connection between the cover and the emitter base, and the cover is installed on the emitter base by bolts.

[0009] Optionally, the ratchet mechanism includes a ratchet and a spring, the ratchet being movably connected to the base of the sprinkler, one end of the ratchet being in a quarter-circle shape and plugged into the outer side of the connecting conversion seat, the other end of the ratchet being fixedly connected to a spring, one end of the spring being fixed to the base of the sprinkler.

[0015] 2. The sheet-type water emitter for Yellow River drip irrigation has a brush assembly arranged on a fixed seat. When the connecting water channel rotates and switches, its filter plate rotates along with it. After the filter plate rotates and switches, the subsequent rotation of the filter plate can enable the brush assembly to automatically brush the filter plate, thereby unblocking the filter plate, thereby effectively solving the problem of its blockage.

[0016] 3. This plate-type emitter for Yellow River drip irrigation, through the action of the ratchet mechanism, increases the water pressure in its connecting waterway when the filter screen plate is clogged. When the water pressure exceeds the threshold value defined by the ratchet mechanism, it can push the connecting conversion seat to rotate, thereby enabling the connecting conversion seat to stably deliver water while ensuring the timely switching of the connecting waterway, making it more convenient to use.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments 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.

[0025] See also Figures 1 to 6 , a sheet-type sprinkler for drip irrigation of the Yellow River, including a sprinkler base 1, a water inlet pipe 2 is fixedly installed on one side of the sprinkler base 1, and a water outlet assembly 3 is installed on the top of the sprinkler base 1, a fixing seat 5 is installed in the middle of the sprinkler base 1, and the interior of the sprinkler base 1 is circular and movable with a connecting conversion seat 6, which can be rotated at a fixed position on the sprinkler base 1, and a plurality of arc-shaped connecting water channels 7 are provided on the connecting conversion seat 6. When blockage occurs in the connecting water channel 7, the water pressure in the connecting water channel 7 continues to rise, which enables it to push the connecting conversion seat 6 to rotate, and the outer end of the connecting water channel 7 can be connected to the water inlet pipe 2, so that water can enter the connecting water channel 7, and a filter screen 11 is fixedly installed inside the inner end of the connecting water channel 7. Under the action of the mesh plate 11, the water can be filtered again. A water delivery channel 15 that can be connected to the water outlet component 3 is opened on the fixed seat 5, so that the water can enter the water outlet component 3 and be irrigated. One end of the water delivery channel 15 can be connected to a connecting water channel 7 together with the water inlet pipe 2. At the same time, a water flow driving device that can drive the water outlet component 3 to rotate is installed in the fixed seat 5. Under the promotion of the water flow driving device, the water outlet component 3 can rotate to irrigate, thereby making its irrigation range wider. At the same time, a ratchet mechanism that can limit the connecting conversion seat 6 is installed in the sprinkler base 1. When the water pressure driving force in the connecting water channel 7 is greater than the threshold value defined by the ratchet mechanism, it can drive the connecting conversion seat 6 to rotate. After completing the switching of the connecting water channel 7, the ratchet mechanism can re-limit the connecting conversion seat 6.

[0026] See also Figures 1 to 3A plurality of inclined water flow pushing grooves 10 are provided on the outer side of the connecting conversion seat 6. The water flow pushing grooves 10 can push the connecting conversion seat 6 to rotate in the same direction as the connecting waterway 7. After the connecting waterway 7 rotates, its water flow can push the fixed seat 5 under the guidance of the water flow pushing groove 10 structure, so that the connecting conversion seat 6 can smoothly perform subsequent rotation to complete the switching of the connecting waterway 7.

[0027] See also Figures 1 to 4 A plurality of cylindrical fixed support rods 8 are fixedly connected to the inside of the water flow push groove 10, the inner end of the fixed support rod 8 is fixed to the outer side of the bottom end of the fixed seat 5, and a brush assembly 12 that can contact the filter screen 11 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the fixed seat 5. When the filter screen 11 rotates, the brush assembly 12 can relatively brush the filter screen 11, thereby dredging the filter screen 11.

[0028] See also Figures 1 to 4 The middle thread at the bottom of the emitter base 1 is connected to a semi-open collecting frame 9, and the top of the collecting frame 9 is directly below the brush assembly 12. Under the action of the collecting frame 9, the removed debris can fall into the collecting frame 9, making it convenient to store.

[0029] See also Figures 1 to 2 A detachable cover plate 4 is installed on the top of the emitter base 1. A rubber sealing gasket is provided at the connection between the cover plate 4 and the emitter base 1. The rubber sealing gasket makes the sealing between them better. At the same time, the cover plate 4 is installed on the emitter base 1 by bolts. The connection content enables the cover plate 4 to be disassembled smoothly, which is convenient for later maintenance.

[0030] See also Figures 1 to 5 The ratchet mechanism includes a ratchet 13 and a spring 14. The ratchet 13 is movably connected to the emitter base 1. The ratchet 13 can move along a fixed trajectory within the emitter base 1. One end of the ratchet 13 is in a quarter circle shape and is plugged into the outer side of the connection conversion seat 6, so that the ratchet 13 can limit the connection conversion seat 6, and when the connection conversion seat 6 rotates, the ratchet 13 can move smoothly into the emitter base 1 to ensure the smooth rotation of the connection conversion seat 6. The other end of the ratchet 13 is fixedly connected to the spring 14, and one end of the spring 14 is fixed to the emitter base 1. Under the action of the elastic force of the spring 14, the ratchet 13 can automatically be plugged into the connection conversion seat 6.

[0031] See also Figures 1 to 6One end of the conveying water channel 15 extending into the fixed seat 5 is in a vortex shape, and a transfer groove 16 is opened inside the fixed seat 5. The vortex-shaped end of the conveying water channel 15 is connected to the transfer groove 16 and is tangent to the outer side of the transfer groove 16, so that the water in the conveying water channel 15 can be tangentially transported to the transfer groove 16, thereby enabling it to generate a stronger water flow driving force.

[0032] See also Figures 1 to 6 The water flow pushing device includes a plurality of water flow pushing blades 17. The top of the water flow pushing blade 17 is fixed to the bottom end of the water outlet component 3. Driven by the water flow pushing blade 17, the water outlet component 3 can rotate smoothly, and the outer side of the water flow pushing blade 17 is in contact with the inner wall of the transfer trough 16. Under the push of the water flow, the water flow pushing blade 17 can rotate.

[0033] See also Figures 1 to 6 A circular arc-shaped guide plate 18 is fixedly connected to the transfer trough 16. The guide plate 18 is opposite to the connection point between the conveying waterway 15 and the transfer trough 16, and the outer side of the guide plate 18 can contact the inner side of the water flow pushing blade 17, so that when the water flows into the transfer trough 16, it can smoothly push the water flow pushing blade 17.

[0034] In summary, the sheet-type sprinkler for the Yellow River drip irrigation, when in use, transports water to the sprinkler base 1 through the water inlet pipe 2, and then transports it to the connecting waterway 7. The water can be filtered again by the filter screen plate 11 in the connecting waterway 7, and then the water enters the delivery waterway 15 and enters the transfer trough 16 tangentially, and then pushes the guide plate 18 to rotate, and then drives the water outlet component 3 to rotate, and the water in the transfer trough 16 enters the water outlet component 3 and is discharged through the water outlet component 3, and then water is irrigated. When the filter screen plate 11 is blocked, the water enters the connecting waterway 7 and the water pressure continues to increase. Large, under the action of the connecting water channel 7 structure, it can push the connecting conversion seat 6 to rotate, and under the cooperation and push of the subsequent water flow pushing groove 10, the connecting conversion seat 6 can rotate, and then the connecting water channel 7 is switched. When the filter screen plate 11 rotates, the filter screen plate 11 can contact the brush assembly 12. Under the action of the brush assembly 12, the filter screen plate 11 can be cleaned, and the cleaned debris can fall into the collection frame 9 for storage. When the connecting water channel 7 on the connecting conversion seat 6 is switched, under the action of the elastic force of the spring 14, the connecting conversion seat 6 can be re-defined.
