Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of garden irrigation, in particular to a roof garden irrigation device. Background Art

[0002] Today, as the urbanization process continues to accelerate, urban land resources have become very limited, and land resources specifically used for urban greening construction are even more scarce. Against this background, roof gardens, as a way to make full use of the roof space of urban buildings for greening, have gradually attracted people's attention and favor. Roof gardens not only have multiple ecological benefits such as beautifying the urban environment, improving air quality, and increasing the area of ​​urban green space, but also provide people with a place for leisure, entertainment, and getting close to nature.

[0003] When watering the roof garden, most of them rely on the water supply system of constant pressure and fixed frequency mode, and use the water pump to pump water to each watering sprinkler head at full power to irrigate the plants in the roof garden. Figure 1 shown.

[0004] However, the above-mentioned roof garden irrigation device has many defects: the irrigation water pump operates in a fixed frequency mode, the water pump always pumps out water at full power, and presses water to each terminal sprinkler head at maximum pressure. Under this condition, a large amount of water resources will be lost in a short period of time, resulting in a waste of water resources. In addition, the irrigation water pump is directly connected to the constant pressure water supply pipeline of the large reservoir. When the water source capacity cannot keep up with the irrigation water volume, the water pump will enter a water shortage operation state and damage the pump body seal. Moreover, the irrigation sprinkler heads are divided into multiple areas, and the spraying electromagnetic main valve is opened by manual operation. All partitions carry out spraying operations at the same time, which forms a large water demand per unit time, further aggravating the shortage of water sources. In addition, the two parts of the water pump pressurization and spraying operation are relatively separate, and both are operated by manual operation, and the operating efficiency of the whole set of equipment is relatively low.

It should be noted that many specific details are set forth in the following description to facilitate a full understanding of the utility model, but the utility model can also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar generalizations without violating the connotation of the utility model, so the utility model is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0031] Secondly, the present invention is described in detail with reference to the schematic diagram. When describing the embodiments of the present invention, for the sake of convenience, the cross-sectional diagrams showing the device structure will not be partially enlarged according to the general proportion, and the schematic diagrams are only examples, which should not limit the scope of protection of the present invention. In addition, in actual production, the three-dimensional dimensions of length, width and depth should be included.

[0032] Secondly, the term "one embodiment" or "embodiment" in this application refers to a specific feature, structure or characteristic that can be included in at least one implementation of the utility model. The "in one embodiment" that appears in different places in this specification does not refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or selective embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments.

[0033] The utility model proposes a roof garden irrigation device, comprising a water storage tank 11, a liquid level controller 1, a constant pressure water supply controller 2 and an irrigation component, such as Figure 2 shown.

[0034] The water storage tank 11 is connected to a water source via a water inlet pipe and is connected to an irrigation assembly via a water supply pipe 5 . The irrigation water is supplied to the irrigation assembly via the water supply pipe 5 to irrigate the garden.

[0035] A water inlet valve 12 is provided on the water inlet pipeline, and a water level sensor 10 is provided inside the water storage tank 11, and the water level sensor 10 monitors the water surface position in the water storage tank 11. The water level sensor 10 and the water inlet valve 12 are respectively connected to the liquid level controller 1, and the liquid level controller 1 controls the switch of the water inlet valve 12 according to the monitoring data of the water level sensor 10, thereby being able to accurately control the water supply from the water source to the water storage tank 11, so that the water storage tank 11 will not be overfilled to overflow, and the water amount in the water storage tank 11 can be ensured to be sufficient.

[0036] A water pump 9 and a pressure transmitter 4 are provided on the water supply pipeline 5. The pressure transmitter 4 is located between the water pump 9 and the irrigation assembly, and monitors the water supply pressure in the water supply pipeline 5. The water pump 9 and the pressure transmitter 4 are respectively connected to the constant pressure water supply controller 2. The constant pressure water supply controller 2 is provided with a water supply pressure threshold, and adjusts the rotation speed of the water pump 9 in combination with the water supply pressure monitored by the pressure transmitter 4, that is, the water pump 9 operates with variable frequency speed regulation, and then adjusts the water supply pressure and water supply volume in the water supply pipeline 5, so as to achieve a constant pressure effect of the water pressure output by the water pump 9, and reduce the waste of excessive water source pumping out.

[0037] In addition, the addition of the water storage tank 11 can be directly used as a water source for irrigation, while the original water source indirectly supplies water. The water source can basically meet the water demand of the water pump 9 after being stored.

[0038] The constant pressure water supply controller 2 of one embodiment of the utility model is also connected to the liquid level controller 1, receives the water level position signal of the water storage tank 11, and controls the water pump 9 to stop running when the water level of the water storage tank 11 is lower than the threshold. In other words, the constant pressure water supply controller 2 can also send a pump stop control signal when the water storage tank 11 is short of water, so as to prevent the water pump 9 from running due to water shortage, thereby preventing the water pump 9 from being damaged.

[0039] An irrigation assembly of an embodiment of the utility model comprises an irrigation pipeline 13 and a spray valve 6. The irrigation pipeline 13 is connected to the water supply pipeline 5. The spray valve 6 is arranged between the irrigation pipeline 13 and the water supply pipeline 5 so as to spray water on the garden at a suitable time.

[0040] The roof garden watering device of an embodiment of the utility model further comprises a watering controller 3, which is connected to a spraying valve 6 to control the switch of the spraying valve 6 to achieve remote control.

[0041] The irrigation pipeline 13 of one embodiment of the utility model has multiple roots (such as Figure 2 In the figure, there are three irrigation pipes 13, each of which is connected to the water supply pipe 5. A plurality of sprinkler heads 7 are arranged on each irrigation pipe 13, and a sprinkler valve 6 is arranged on each irrigation pipe 13. Each sprinkler valve 6 is arranged between the water supply pipe 5 and the sprinkler head 7 of each irrigation pipe 13.

[0042] The irrigation controller 3 of one embodiment of the utility model is a PLC controller, which controls the spray valve 6 on each irrigation pipeline 13 respectively. The irrigation controller 3 opens the spray valves 6 in sequence according to the arrangement order of the spray valves 6, and only one spray valve 6 is opened at the same time. That is, at any time, only the spray head 7 on one irrigation pipeline 13 is spraying and running. After a set period of time, the spray head 7 on the next irrigation pipeline 13 is rotated to spray. In this way, the rotation spraying operation in different areas can well solve the problem of water shortage in unit time. The spraying cycle and the spraying time and duration in a single spraying cycle can also be set on the PLC controller to prevent manual leakage and improve irrigation efficiency.

[0043] The water inlet valve 12 and the spray valve 6 of one embodiment of the utility model are both solenoid valves.

[0044] The liquid level controller 1 of one embodiment of the utility model is a pressure liquid level instrument.

[0045] In one embodiment of the utility model, a pressure gauge 8 is further provided on the water supply pipeline 5 between the water pump 9 and the irrigation assembly. The pressure gauge 9 displays the water supply pressure value to provide a reference when adjusting the water supply pressure on site.
