Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of agricultural irrigation, and in particular to a gas-liquid coupled multi-mode switching pumped storage irrigation device and a method of using the same. Background Art

[0002] In the development of modern agriculture, the efficiency and environmental friendliness of irrigation systems are crucial to sustainable agricultural development. Currently, traditional agricultural irrigation systems primarily rely on mains electricity to drive water pumps. This not only consumes large amounts of non-renewable energy, resulting in high operating costs, but also places significant pressure on the environment, making it difficult to meet the needs of green agricultural development.

[0003] Existing agricultural irrigation systems face numerous technical bottlenecks. First, energy utilization is insufficient, failing to effectively utilize abundant green energy sources such as solar and wind power, resulting in energy waste. Second, energy storage methods are suboptimal, lacking a stable and reliable energy storage system, making it impossible to effectively store excess electricity, making it difficult to meet irrigation needs at night or when energy supply is insufficient. Third, irrigation methods are limited, typically only offering a single irrigation mode, and unable to flexibly switch irrigation methods based on the different growth stages and water requirements of crops, affecting irrigation effectiveness and water resource utilization efficiency. Fourth, water resources are severely wasted. The irrigation process lacks an effective water recycling mechanism, resulting in a large amount of irrigation water being directly discharged without being fully absorbed by crops, resulting in a significant waste of water resources.

[0004] Therefore, a new type of pumping and energy storage irrigation device is urgently needed to solve the technical problems of the existing agricultural irrigation system, such as insufficient energy utilization, unsatisfactory energy storage methods, single irrigation method and waste of water resources, so as to achieve efficient utilization of green energy, flexible switching of multiple irrigation methods, stable and reliable energy storage and recycling of water resources, and meet the urgent needs of modern agriculture for efficient, environmentally friendly and intelligent irrigation.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0039] The following description is intended to disclose the present invention so that those skilled in the art can implement the present invention. The preferred embodiments described below are merely examples, and those skilled in the art may conceive of other obvious variations.

[0040] The present invention discloses a gas-liquid coupled multi-mode switching pumped storage irrigation device for converting green energy such as solar energy and wind energy into electrical energy, and then using the electrical energy to pump out water at a low position to irrigate plants. At the same time, water is used as an energy storage medium to store excess electrical energy, which can be used for nighttime electricity use. The device aims to solve technical problems such as insufficient energy utilization, unsatisfactory energy storage methods, single irrigation methods, and waste of water resources in existing agricultural irrigation systems, and achieve the technical effects of efficient utilization of green energy, flexible switching of multiple irrigation methods, stable and reliable energy storage, and recycling of water resources, thereby meeting the needs of modern agriculture for efficient, environmentally friendly, and intelligent irrigation.

[0041] like Figure 1 The gas-liquid coupling multi-mode switching pumped storage irrigation device shown in the figure includes a power generation component 1 and a deep water pump 2, a first water storage tank 3, a second water storage tank 4 and a power generation component 9; the power generation component 1 is electrically connected to the deep water pump 2; the deep water pump 2 is connected to the first water storage tank 3 through a water pipe; the top of the first water storage tank 3 is connected to the second water storage tank 4 through a pipe and a third solenoid valve 7 is provided on the pipe; the lower end of the first water storage tank 3 is provided with a drain pipe and the drain pipes are respectively provided with a first solenoid valve 5; the lower end of the second water storage tank 4 is provided with a drain pipe and the drain pipes are respectively provided with a third solenoid valve 7; Two solenoid valves 6; a fourth solenoid valve 8 is provided at the upper end of the second water storage tank 4, and the fourth solenoid valve 8 is connected to the inlet of the gas-liquid mixing valve 11 through an air pipe; the drain pipe of the first water storage tank 3 and the drain pipe of the second water storage tank 4 are connected to the inlet of the power generation component 9; the drain outlet of the power generation component 9 is connected to the multi-way reversing valve 10; the multi-way reversing valve 10 is connected to the drip irrigation component 14, the atomizing water pipe 16 and the return pipe 15; the atomizing water pipe 16 is connected to the inlet of the gas-liquid mixing valve 11; the outlet of the gas-liquid mixing valve 11 is connected to the atomizing nozzle 13 through a pipe.

[0042] The power generation component 1 is used to convert natural energy into electrical energy. In this embodiment, the power generation component 1 is composed of a solar panel, an inverter and a battery pack; it should be noted that the power generation component 1 can also be a wind power generation component, a wind and solar combined power generation component, etc.

[0043] The deep water pump 2 is used to pump water from a lower place into the first water storage tank 3. The deep water pump 2 is electrically connected to the power generation component 1.

[0044] The first water storage tank 3 is used to store water pumped up by the deep water pump 2. When the water inside the first water storage tank 3 is stored to a certain level, the water compresses the air and is connected to the second water storage tank 4 through the third solenoid valve 7. At this time, the compressed air at the top of the first water storage tank 3 is squeezed into the second water storage tank 4. As the first water storage tank 3 is full, the water medium continues to flow into the second water storage tank 4, and the air in the upper part of the second water storage tank 4 continues to be compressed. It should be noted that the number of water storage tanks can be increased or decreased according to the scale of power generation and energy storage.

[0045] When the pumping energy storage irrigation device needs illumination at night to promote plant growth, the first solenoid valve 5 and the second solenoid valve 6 are opened. At this time, the water stored in the tank body flows to the power generation component 9 under the action of compressed air pressure and drives the power generation component 9 to generate electricity.

[0046] The multi-way reversing valve 10 switches according to the function. For example, when irrigation is not needed, the multi-way reversing valve 10 connects to the return pipe 15, and the water flowing out of the power generation component 9 flows back to the deep water well of the deep water pump 2 or the water storage tank at a low position to achieve recycling;

[0047] When drip irrigation is required, the multi-way reversing valve 10 is connected to the drip irrigation assembly 14, and the water flowing out of the power generation assembly 9 flows to the drip irrigation assembly 14 to achieve drip irrigation of the plants.

[0048] When atomized irrigation is required, the multi-way reversing valve 10 is connected to the gas-liquid mixing valve 11, and the water flowing out of the power generation component 9 flows to the gas-liquid mixing valve 11. At this time, the fourth solenoid valve 8 is opened, and the compressed air at the top of the second water storage tank 4 is connected to the gas-liquid mixing valve 11. The high-pressure airflow passes through the gas-liquid mixing valve 11 to atomize the water and then sprays it onto the crops from the atomizing nozzle 13.

[0049] It should be noted that the present invention is also provided with an automatic air pressure compensation system. An air pressure sensor is provided inside the second water storage tank 4 for detecting the air pressure value inside the water storage tank. When the compressed air at the top of the second water storage tank 4 flows out with the water medium, the space becomes larger and the air pressure becomes smaller; when the air pressure value reaches the set threshold, the automatic air pressure compensation system starts to operate, the first solenoid valve 5 is closed, and the deep water pump 2 starts to press water into the first water storage tank 3, so that the water level of the first water storage tank 3 rises. At this time, the third solenoid valve 7 is opened, and the water or air above the first water storage tank 3 is pressed into the second water storage tank 4 to keep the internal air pressure stable.

[0050] A one-way air inlet valve is provided at the upper end of the first water storage tank 3 and the second water storage tank 4. When the air pressure inside the water storage tank is lower than the external air pressure, the external air enters the water storage tank through the one-way air inlet valve. When the water level rises, the air inside the water storage tank is compressed. When compressed air energy is needed, the corresponding switch valve can be opened to realize energy recycling.

[0051] In another embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the first water storage tank 3 and the second water storage tank 4 are each connected through a separate water inlet pipe and a deep water pump 2. The top of the first water storage tank 3 is connected to the gas-liquid mixing valve 11 through the third solenoid valve 7, and the bottom of the first water storage tank 3 is connected to the power generation component 9 through the first solenoid valve 5. The second water storage tank 4 is connected to the gas-liquid mixing valve 11 through the fourth solenoid valve 8, and the bottom of the second water storage tank 4 is connected to the power generation component 9 through the second solenoid valve 6.

[0052] The first water storage tank 3 and the second water storage tank 4 independently realize the circulating energy storage function, specifically as follows: when the power generation component 1 needs to store energy, the deep water pump 2 draws water at a low position into the first water storage tank 3 and the second water storage tank 4 at the same time. As the water level in the water tank rises, the air is compressed to form energy storage air pressure. When in use, you can choose to use a single water storage tank or multiple water storage tanks at the same time according to the purpose. Specifically, you can open the first solenoid valve 5 under the first water storage tank 3, and the energy storage air pressure of the first water storage tank 3 will press the water out into the power generation component. At this time, when the energy storage air pressure of the first water storage tank 3 drops to the set threshold, the first solenoid valve 5 is closed, and the second solenoid valve 6 is opened. The energy storage air pressure of the second water storage tank 4 continues to press the water out, and the deep water pump 2 presses water into the first water storage tank 3 to increase the energy storage air pressure. This cycle ensures energy storage and the energy storage air pressure can be adjusted according to the purpose of water use. The squeezed water is described as above according to the purpose and is not repeated.

[0053] The first and second water storage tanks can be connected in series or in parallel (with a separate water inlet pipe connected to a deep water pump), and the number of water storage tanks can be flexibly increased or decreased according to the energy storage scale to meet the needs of different agricultural scenarios.

[0054] like Figure 4 As shown; the multi-way reversing valve 10 is connected to the water outlet of the power generation component 9 and is switched according to the purpose of water use; the multi-way reversing valve 10 is described in detail below. The multi-way reversing valve 10 includes a reversing valve water inlet 101, which is used to connect to the water outlet of the power generation component 9, and the reversing valve water inlet 101 is also connected to a reversing valve body 102, and a cavity is set inside the reversing valve body 102, and the cavity is communicated with the drip irrigation switch valve 103, the return water switch valve 104, and the atomization switch valve 105 through a joint respectively; each regulating valve adopts electromagnetic control to adjust the water flow rate and speed. The other end of the drip irrigation switch valve 103 is connected to the drip irrigation assembly 14 through a pipe joint; the other end of the return water switch valve 104 is connected to the return water pipe 15 through a pipe joint; the atomization switch valve 105 is communicated with the water inlet of the gas-liquid mixing valve 11, and one end of the gas-liquid mixing valve 11 is connected to the energy storage air pressure source inside the water storage tank through the fourth solenoid valve 8, the third solenoid valve 7 or the fourth solenoid valve 8 and the third solenoid valve 7; the other end of the gas-liquid mixing valve 11 is connected to the atomization nozzle 13 pipeline.

[0055] like Figure 5 As shown, the gas-liquid mixing valve 11 includes a gas-liquid mixing valve housing 111 , a mixing valve core 112 , and a regulating valve core 113 ; the mixing valve core 112 is installed in the gas-liquid mixing valve housing 111 ; the regulating valve core 113 is installed on the upper end of the mixing valve core 112 .

[0056] Specifically, the lower end of the gas-liquid mixing valve housing 111 is connected to the atomizing water pipe 16, which is used to introduce water into the valve body; the left side pipe of the gas-liquid mixing valve housing 111 is connected to the fourth solenoid valve 8, which is used to introduce the high-pressure gas source into the valve body; the right side of the gas-liquid mixing valve housing 111 is connected to the pipe of the atomizing nozzle 13, which is used to atomize the water and lead it out.

[0057] like Figure 5 In the specific embodiment shown, the mixing valve core 112 is sealedly connected to the lower end of the gas-liquid mixing valve housing 111, and a "∩"-shaped cavity communicating with air is formed between the upper end of the mixing valve core 112 and the inner wall of the gas-liquid mixing valve housing 111; that is, the high-pressure airflow can flow from the left cavity 111a through the top cavity 111b and then out from the right cavity 111c; the regulating valve core 113 can move up and down to adjust the size of the top cavity 111b, thereby controlling the flow rate of the regulating airflow.

[0058] Further Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, a main channel 1121 is provided inside the mixing valve core 112, the bottom of which is used to connect to the atomizing water pipe 16 to introduce water into the interior of the valve body, and the top outlet is communicated with the top cavity 111b; it should be further explained that, on both sides of the main channel 1121, there are provided separators 1122 that are uniformly vertical and symmetrically arranged along the central vertical axis of the main channel 1121, and the separators 1122 divide the main channel 1121 into reverse reflux channels with the same number as the main channel.

[0059] like Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the separator 1122 includes a cylinder 200 and a symmetrical separator 201 with a pointed angle connected to the cylinder. A first channel 1123a is provided at the center of the cylinder 200, and the cylinder 200 is provided with a through hole, which allows the first channel 1123a to communicate with the space inside the separator 201; all cylinders 200 in a vertical row are connected to the first cavity 1125a through the first channel 1123a; the first cavity 1125a is connected to the high-pressure gas source through the gas source channel 1124, that is, the high-pressure gas flows through the third solenoid valve 7 or the fourth solenoid valve 8 into the left cavity 111 in the valve core. a. Part of the high-pressure airflow enters the first cavity 1125a through the air source channel 1124, and then is diverted from the first cavity 1125a to each first channel 1123a; and then is blown into the main channel 1121 through the through hole of the cylinder 200; so that part of the airflow decomposes the water into bubble-shaped turbulent water in the main channel 1121 and forms air pressure in the main channel 1121, thereby preventing the water in the main channel 1121 from flowing back under the action of the high-pressure air pressure at the upper end. In addition, when the high-pressure airflow distributed at the top through the separator 1122 enters the main channel 1121, the airflow is blocked by each separator 1122 and forms a backflow, thereby effectively preventing backflow.

[0060] like Figure 6As shown, as another expanded embodiment, the second channel 1123b and second cavity 1125b in another row of separators 1122 communicate with each other. Second cavity 1125b can be connected to other aqueous media, such as water-soluble fertilizers or water-soluble pesticides, through a channel. This allows the water-soluble pesticides to be fully integrated within main channel 1121 and sprayed out through the atomizing nozzle 13 on the right side of gas-liquid mixing valve housing 111. Water-soluble fertilizers or pesticides can be injected simultaneously, utilizing the turbulent flow within the main channel for instant mixing, avoiding the complex processes of traditional mixing equipment, reducing equipment investment, and improving fertilization / pesticide application uniformity. The symmetrical distribution of the separators and the airflow recirculation mechanism effectively prevent liquid backflow, ensuring stable medium injection, especially during high-low pressure switching conditions, to avoid uneven water and fertilizer mixing or equipment damage.

[0061] like Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, the inner side of the separator 201 of the separator 1122 is symmetrically and staggeredly arranged with blocking protrusions 202; the blocking protrusions 202 can partially block the airflow from the first channel 1123a. The airflow continuously impacts the blocking protrusions 202, causing the separator 201 to self-oscillate, further breaking up the water fluid in the main channel 1121, thereby forming bubbling water to improve atomization efficiency. Similarly, the water-soluble pesticide can be fully integrated with the water fluid in the main channel 1121. Due to the self-oscillation, the valve core channel can be effectively prevented from being blocked. The formation of bubbling turbulent water disperses the water into finer particles, making the atomized particle size more uniform, improving irrigation coverage and water utilization rate, and significantly improving atomization efficiency, which is particularly suitable for arid areas or cash crops that require precise irrigation.
