[0002] Generally, when watering plants, we always water the roots of the plants, because the roots are the main area for absorbing water, and plants need water to maintain their growth and metabolism. The roots of plants usually grow in the soil and can better resist adverse environmental conditions, such as drought, high temperature, low temperature, etc. If water is poured directly on the leaves, the leaves will be affected by adverse environmental conditions, such as sun exposure, frost, etc., and even cause rot. Pouring water directly on the roots can promote the growth and development of the root system, enable the roots to better control water absorption and transportation, and transport water to various parts of the plant to meet the growth and metabolic needs of the plant, making the plant stronger and healthier. The watering can is a tool specially used for watering plants. It consists of a water storage pot and a long water delivery tube. It can deliver water to flower pots or flower beds to provide plants with moisturizing water. It is one of the essential tools for many gardening enthusiasts and one of the most frequently used tools in the process of planting and caring for plants. However, this traditional watering method still has the following shortcomings: when using a watering can to water plants, water often falls on the leaves and flowers of the plants, and it is difficult to control the water to be directly transported to the soil, which can cause rot and plant diseases; the watering can pours water on the soil surface, and the water needs to slowly penetrate into the deep soil, where the plant roots exist, before it can be absorbed by the plants. It is difficult to control the amount of watering, which can easily cause water accumulation and root rot or failure to be used by the plant roots. Secondly, the water on the leaves and in the surrounding soil is not fully utilized by the plants and evaporates, resulting in a waste of water or nutrient solution.

[0038] Among them, the tube body 6 is a hollow tube, and the interior and the head and tail parts of the tube body 6 are connected. The tube body 6 is made of a steel tube material, which is not easy to deform and has high strength. The end of the tube body 6 is integrally formed with a water outlet control component 11, and the water outlet control component 11 is connected to the first tube body 5. The position of the first tube body 5 is moved to open and close the water outlet control component 11. Therefore, in actual use, water is stored in the hollow structure of the tube body 6. When it is necessary to accurately irrigate the roots of plants, the operator only needs to hold the tube body 6 and insert the end of the water outlet control component 11 into the root position of the plant, and then control the movement of the first tube body 5, thereby controlling the opening of the water outlet control component 11, so that the water in the tube body 6 can flow out, thereby forming precise irrigation of the roots of plants.

[0039] Specifically, the water outlet control component 11 includes: a stopper, a plurality of stoppers are provided, and the plurality of stoppers are arranged around the end periphery of the tube body 6, and the stopper is connected to the first tube body 5 through a first connecting member; wherein, when the plant root watering device is in a non-watering state, the plurality of stoppers are arranged in close proximity, and when the plant root watering device is in a watering state, the plurality of stoppers are separated from each other.

[0040] Furthermore, the stopper is an isosceles triangle structure, see Figure 1The bottom edge of the stopper piece is integrally formed with the tube body 6. When the plant root watering device is in a non-watering state, the oblique edges of the multiple stopper pieces are fitted in pairs, and the vertices of the multiple stopper pieces converge at one point.
