Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of rain collectors, and more specifically, particularly relates to a hanging rain collector. Background Art

[0002] The rain collector hanging outside the window for growing flowers is specially designed for people who like or prefer growing flowers, and a specific group of people who love to use natural rainwater to water flowers. Compared with household water, rainwater contains more trace substances and is more suitable for watering flowers.

[0003] Based on the above, the inventors have discovered the following problems: some existing rain collectors are usually placed directly and cannot be hung or folded for storage, which makes it inconvenient for residents in some floors or high-rise residential buildings or areas where rain collection is not available. Keeping the rain collector open all the time when there is no rain or strong sunshine will increase unnecessary risks. Long-term exposure to the sun will reduce the life of the rain collecting part. There will also be greater risks when using it in strong winds.

[0004] Therefore, in view of this, the existing structure and defects are studied and improved, and a hanging rain collector is provided to achieve a more practical purpose. Utility Model Content

[0030] Among them, the other side of the vertical rain shield 9 is fixed to the connecting plate 1, and the bottoms of the two vertical rain shields 9 are respectively sealed and connected to the tops of the two ends of the bottom rain shield 11. The horizontal height of the bottom rain shield 11 is smaller than the horizontal height of the drainage hole 20. The rainwater collected by the movable plate 7 is diverted through the two vertical rain shields 9 and the bottom rain shield 11, so that the rainwater can flow out from the drainage hole 20.

[0031] Among them, the bottom end of the water pipe 14 is sealed and connected with the top of the sealing plug 17. The height of the air pressure pipe 16 is greater than the height of the water collecting tank 15. A sealing ring 19 is provided on the outer wall of the air pressure pipe 16.

[0035] Among them, a wind speed sensor 10 is fixed on the side of the movable plate 7 away from the connecting plate 1. The wind speed sensor 10 is electrically connected to the micro servo motor 4. The wind speed is detected by the wind speed sensor 10. When the wind speed is high, the wind speed sensor 10 controls the micro servo motor 4 to close the movable plate 7, thereby reducing wind resistance and preventing the connecting plate 1 from falling.

[0036] The specific usage and function of this embodiment are as follows:

[0037] In the utility model, the position of the hanging rod 3 is first adjusted according to the position of the window frame, and the position of the hanging rod 3 can be adjusted by sliding the hanging rod 3 in the guide rail 2.
