[0036] The heat preservation layer 22 is connected with the lower surface of the gel adsorption layer 21 and covers the lower surface of the gel adsorption layer 21, so as to prevent heat loss, maintain the temperature required for condensation and isolate external environmental pollution. The heat preservation layer 22 is made of a material with excellent heat insulation performance.
[0037] The condensation water collecting module 3 is connected with the gel adsorption module 2, and is used for condensing water vapor to obtain condensed water. The condensation water collecting module 3 comprises a condensation channel connected with the gel adsorption layer 21, so as to improve the condensation efficiency and avoid the interference of backflow of condensed water. The condensation water collecting module 3 is made of a metal material with high thermal conductivity.
[0038] The crop irrigation module 4 is connected with the condensation water collecting module 3, and is used for irrigating crops by using the collected condensed water.
[0039] The crop irrigation module 4 comprises a siphon pipe 40, a water storage tank 41, a water pump 42 and an electric wire 43.
[0040] The siphon pipe 40 is connected with the condensation water collecting module 3, and is used for conveying condensed water. The siphon pipe 40 realizes pressureless water conveying by using the siphon principle.

[0047] The photovoltaic power generation module 1, the gel adsorption module 2 and the condensation water collecting module 3 are vertically stacked in sequence, so as to form a vertical stacking structure.
[0048] Figure 2 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of the working principle of the photovoltaic power generation and air water harvesting irrigation system in the embodiment of the present application.
[0049] As shown in FIG. 1, the photovoltaic power generation and air water harvesting irrigation system 100 comprises a photovoltaic power generation module 1, a gel adsorption module 2, a condensation water collecting module 3, a crop irrigation module 4 and a soil detection module 5. Figure 2As shown, the working principle of the photovoltaic power generation and air water extraction irrigation system is as follows:
[0050] Before entering the system, the air is first filtered by the high-air-permeability dustproof film layer 20. The dustproof film layer 20 is made of a material with excellent air permeability and filtering performance, which can effectively block the fine particles and salt mist suspended in the air, ensuring that the air entering the system is clean. Subsequently, the purified air enters the gel adsorption module 2, which is made of a porous composite polymer material with embedded hygroscopic salt. The gel adsorption module 2 can efficiently adsorb water vapor in the air. During the day, the photovoltaic power generation module 1 converts light energy into electrical energy through the photoelectric effect. The waste heat generated by the photovoltaic power generation module 1 is used to drive the gel adsorption module 2, releasing the adsorbed water vapor while removing a large amount of waste heat, thereby preventing overheating of the photovoltaic panel 10 and improving the power generation efficiency. The released water vapor then enters the condensation water collection module 3. When the water vapor contacts the condensation channel on the surface of the condensation water collection module 3, it quickly releases latent heat and converts into liquid water. The liquid water flows into the lower storage tank 41 through the siphon effect of the siphon pipe 40. The soil detection module 5 monitors the moisture state of the soil in the area where the crops have been planted in real time. When the soil moisture is low, the soil detection module 5 feeds back data to the water pump 42. The water pump 42 uses the electrical energy generated by the photovoltaic power generation module 1 to accurately deliver water from the storage tank 41 to the crop root zone, achieving precise irrigation.
