Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of agricultural irrigation. Specifically, it relates to a high-efficiency crop irrigation device that couples the dual water effects of soil and atmosphere. Background Art

[0002] Traditional irrigation technologies (such as flood irrigation and furrow irrigation) have long relied on empirical operations, resulting in problems such as low water use efficiency (generally less than 40%) and aggravated soil salinization. With the development of sensor technology, drip irrigation and subsurface irrigation systems based on soil moisture monitoring have gradually become popular, which can increase the water use efficiency to 60%-70%. However, existing technologies mostly focus on single soil moisture feedback and ignore the dynamic impact of atmospheric evaporation demand on crop water consumption, resulting in deviations between irrigation decisions and the actual water demand laws of crops.

[0003] However, the soil-atmosphere coupling mechanism is lacking: the water demand of crops is jointly determined by root water absorption (soil supply) and canopy transpiration (atmospheric demand), and existing technologies have not established a dynamic weight allocation model.

[0004] Poor adaptability of atomized irrigation: The atomization particle size of traditional nozzles (>50μm) is much larger than the stomatal size (5-20μm), and it cannot be directly absorbed through the stomata.

[0005] Rigid mechanical structure: The irrigation direction is fixed and cannot be intelligently reversed to cover multiple crops, resulting in waste of water resources.

[0006] Salt accumulation: Residual salts after the evaporation of hard irrigation water burn the leaves (when the Na⁺ concentration > 50mg / L).

[0007] In view of this, the present invention is specifically proposed. Summary of the Invention

A concentrated water outlet 2 is installed on the side wall of the irrigation water tank 1 above the edge of the ion-selective membrane 6. The side wall of the irrigation water tank 1 below is connected to the head end of the product water outlet pipe 9. The tail end of the product water outlet pipe 9 is connected to the water inlet of the driving cavity of the booster pump 8. The water outlet of the driving cavity of the booster pump 8 is connected to the head end of the water delivery pipe 10. One end of the driving shaft of the booster pump 8 is installed with a follower impeller 21. The follower impeller 21 is arranged in the driving cavity 8 of the booster pump 8. The other end of the driving shaft is installed with a suction eddy current wheel 22. The suction port of the booster pump 8 is installed with a water inlet pipe 26. The outlet of the booster pump 8 is connected to the head end of the water inlet connecting pipe 7. The tail end of the water inlet connecting pipe 7 is connected to the upper end of the raw water inlet pipe 5.

[0026] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, further, a suction pump 11 is installed on the water delivery pipe 10. The drain port of the suction pump 11 is connected to the irrigation pipe 13. The piezoelectric ceramic atomizing nozzle 14 is horizontally installed on the irrigation pipe 13. The lower end of the irrigation pipe 13 is connected to the water delivery pipe 10 through a rotary seal joint. The irrigation pipe 13 is installed on the annular box seat 12.

[0027] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, in the specific implementation, an annular base 15 is installed on the annular box seat 12. A follower gear ring 24 is installed at the bottom of the annular base 15.

In this setting, The implementation principle of a crop efficient irrigation device that couples the dual moisture effects of soil and atmosphere in this embodiment is as follows: During actual use, the suction pump 11 operates to suck the irrigation water filtered by the ion selective membrane 6 in the inner cavity of the irrigation water tank 1. The irrigation water is discharged from the water production outlet pipe 9 and passes through the booster pump 8 to drive the follow-up impeller 21 with water flow, thereby driving the suction eddy turbine 22 on the booster pump 8 to rotate, increasing the water pressure and flow rate from the water inlet connecting pipe 7 to the raw water inlet pipe 5, ensuring that the water source sprayed down from the raw water spray pipe 3 forms a relatively high-pressure atomization effect and is sprayed onto the ion selective membrane 6 to achieve an efficient filtration effect. Moreover, the servo motor 1 18 drives the driving gear 1 19 to engage and drive the follow-up gear 1 20 on the raw water inlet pipe 5 to rotate, so that the water distribution direction of the raw water spray pipe 3 can be adjusted, making full use of the filtration effect brought by the ion selective membrane 6; The filtered irrigation water enters the irrigation pipe 13 from the water delivery pipe 10 and finally passes through; two piezoelectric ceramic atomizing nozzles 14 generate 5 - 20 μm droplets (close to the pore size) and are directly absorbed through the pores to improve the irrigation effect; The servo motor 2 27 drives the driving gear 2 23 to engage and rotate the follow-up gear ring 2 24, thereby driving the annular base 15 to form a rotational drive. Since a sector gear 28 is provided on the outer wall of the follow-up gear ring 24, it can be ensured that when the sector gear 28 rotates close to and engages with the follow-up gear 3 29 as the follow-up gear ring 24 rotates, the irrigation pipe 13 can rotate 180 degrees to achieve the purpose of reversing, and can spray irrigation on adjacent crops; and during the rotation of the annular base 15, the two infrared temperature sensors 17 on its vertical rod 16 can be driven to detect the temperature of different leaves on the same plant, thereby triggering spraying based on the leaf temperature - air temperature difference (ΔT > 3°C) to match the pore opening period (9 - 11 am).

[0029] Among them, the atmospheric humidity sensor 30 forms a humidity difference with the soil humidity sensor embedded in the soil, and the soil - atmosphere dual-source sensor fusion: real-time synchronous monitoring of the dynamic coupling algorithm of root layer moisture and canopy microclimate: a dual-weight irrigation decision-making model based on the improved Penman-Monteith equation for active water regulation: combined with a collaborative execution system data support of drip irrigation (soil) and spraying (atmosphere).
