Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of agricultural implements, and specifically relates to a compost aeration pipe. Background Art
[0002] Composting is a process involving key microbial communities that actively decompose degradable and rotting organic waste under moist, self-heating, and aerobic conditions. It is a natural process characterized by the succession of microbial communities. The composting process has three stages: The first stage is the initial stage of composting - the initial mesophilic stage. The initial temperature and carbon source-rich environment are conducive to the growth of mesophilic bacteria and fungi. These microorganisms include acetic acid lactic acid bacteria, Bacillus, Actinobacillus, Ascomycota, etc. They decompose simple organic substances such as amino acids and sugars into organic acids, and the pH decreases. In this stage, the activity of microorganisms decomposing organic substances causes the temperature to rise to 40 °C. The second stage is the middle stage of composting - the thermophilic stage. In this stage, thermophilic microorganisms replace mesophilic microorganisms. Among them, thermophilic microorganisms include Thermophilic Actinomycetes, Bacillus, Thermus, and Zygomycota, etc. Organic substances (fats, cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin) are degraded by them, which causes the temperature to rise to 40 - 80 °C. In this stage, due to the metabolic activities of heat-resistant microorganisms, the organic carbon content in the raw materials decreases. The third stage is the mature stage of composting - the cooling stage. The main microorganisms include Bacillus, Actinobacillus, Proteobacteria, and Basidiomycota, etc. The activity of these microorganisms decreases due to the exhaustion of easily degradable organic substances, resulting in a decrease in oxygen absorption and heat release, and the temperature decreases.
[0003] The existing conventional aeration pipes adopt a single vertical structure. In the actual use process, there is usually a problem that when the aeration pipe supplies oxygen, the area of the compost receiving oxygen is too small. Therefore, it is necessary to insert the aeration pipe multiple times to achieve sufficient oxygen supply for the compost. However, inserting the aeration pipe multiple times causes the problem of uneven oxygen supply in the compost. At the same time, inserting the aeration pipe multiple times takes more time. For this reason, it is necessary to propose a compost aeration pipe with more uniform oxygen supply and higher efficiency. Content of the Utility Model
[0004] In order to solve the problem of uneven oxygen supply and low efficiency when the above-mentioned aeration pipe supplies oxygen to the compost, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a compost aeration pipe, which solves the problem of uneven oxygen supply inside the compost through the spiral structure of the aeration pipe.
[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution of the utility model is as follows: A compost aeration pipe includes an aeration pipe. The aeration pipe is spiral. An air inlet is provided at the top of the aeration pipe. The air inlet is connected to an air pump assembly. A plurality of ventilation holes are provided on the aeration pipe.
[0006] The principle of the basic solution is as follows: Insert the ventilation pipe into the compost, turn on the air pump assembly, oxygen enters the ventilation pipe through the air inlet, and then the oxygen is input into the compost through the ventilation holes on the ventilation pipe to achieve oxygen supply. At the same time, since the ventilation pipe is spiral-shaped, the contact area between the pipe and the compost is relatively wide, thereby reducing the number of times the ventilation pipe is inserted into the compost for oxygen supply again, achieving extensive and uniform oxygen supply inside the compost. Meanwhile, when the compost needs to be humidified, the air pump assembly connected to the air inlet can be detached, water is introduced into the air inlet, and the water is injected into the compost through the ventilation holes on the ventilation pipe, realizing the function of moisturizing inside the compost.
[0007] The beneficial effects of the basic solution are as follows: Compared with the prior art, the spiral design of the ventilation pipe in this technical solution can make the contact area between the pipe body of the ventilation pipe and the compost wider, reducing the number of times the ventilation pipe is inserted into the compost for oxygen supply again. As a result, the oxygen supply inside the compost is more uniform, and at the same time, it can also realize the function of injecting water into the compost, playing a role in moisturizing the compost.
[0008] Furthermore, the air pump assembly includes an air pump, and the air pump is detachably connected to the air inlet.
[0009] The beneficial effects of the basic solution are as follows: The air pump can stably and efficiently introduce oxygen into the pipe. The detachable connection between the air pump and the air inlet enables the air pump to be removed when the compost needs internal humidification, water is introduced into the air inlet, and the water enters the compost through the ventilation holes of the ventilation pipe, playing a role in moistening the compost.
[0010] Furthermore, filter screens are provided on the side of the ventilation holes close to the outside.
[0011] The beneficial effects of the basic solution are as follows: The ventilation pipe can supply oxygen and inject water into the compost through the ventilation holes. The filter screens provided on the ventilation holes can reduce the situation where residues enter the ventilation pipe and block the ventilation pipe when the ventilation pipe is inserted into the compost. At the same time, when the ventilation pipe supplies oxygen and water, it can flush the residue blocks stuck on the filter screens, playing a cleaning role.
[0012] Furthermore, a sealing cover is fixedly connected to the top of the air inlet.
[0013] The beneficial effects of the basic solution are as follows: The sealing cover can isolate external impurities when the ventilation pipe is not in use
[0014] entering the ventilation pipe from the air inlet and keep the inside of the ventilation pipe clean.
[0015] Furthermore, a rotating ring is rotatably connected to the side of the top of the ventilation pipe close to the air inlet.
[0016] The beneficial effects of the basic solution are as follows: When the ventilation pipe needs to be inserted into the compost, the rotating ring can be rotated to make the ventilation pipe screw into the compost along the spiral structure, thereby reducing manual labor consumption.
[0017] Furthermore, a pipe fixing bracket is detachably connected to one side of the top of the ventilation pipe close to the rotating ring.
[0018] The beneficial effect of the basic solution is that when oxygen needs to be introduced after the ventilation pipe is inserted into the compost, the ventilation pipe is in a state of lacking support. The pipe fixing bracket can fix the ventilation pipe, reducing the situation of the ventilation pipe tilting during ventilation, and thus realizing the stability of the ventilation pipe during oxygen supply.
[0019] Furthermore, the included angle between two adjacent ventilation pipe bodies in the same cross-section is 30°.
[0020] The beneficial effect of the basic solution is that an included angle of 30° between two adjacent ventilation pipe bodies in the same cross-section can make the contact area between the ventilation pipe and the compost wider.
[0021] Furthermore, a sharp cone is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the ventilation pipe.
[0022] The beneficial effect of the basic solution is that when the ventilation pipe enters the compost, the spike structure of the sharp cone at the bottom of the ventilation pipe can smoothly and efficiently insert the ventilation pipe into the compost. At the same time, the sharp cone can break the large solid blocks in the compost, reducing the situation of the large solid blocks in the compost damaging the pipe body of the ventilation pipe.

[0026] The following is further detailed through specific implementation manners:
[0027] The reference numerals in the attached drawings of the specification include: ventilation pipe 1, ventilation hole 2, rotating ring 3, sharp cone 4, air inlet 5, and sealing cover 6.
[0028] Embodiment, basically as in the attached Figures 1 - 3As shown: A compost ventilation pipe, including a ventilation pipe 1, the ventilation pipe 1 is spiral, the top of the ventilation pipe 1 is provided with an air inlet 5, the top of the air inlet 5 is fixedly bonded with a sealing cover 6, the air inlet 5 is communicated with an air pump assembly, the air pump assembly includes an air pump, the air pump is detachably communicated with the air inlet 5, and the air pump is a vortex air pump. A number of ventilation holes 2 are provided on the ventilation pipe 1, filter nets are provided on one side of each ventilation hole 2 close to the outside, a rotating ring 3 is rotatably connected to one side of the top of the ventilation pipe 1 close to the air inlet 5, a pipe fixing bracket is detachably connected to one side of the top of the ventilation pipe 1 close to the rotating ring 3, and a sharp cone 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the ventilation pipe 1 by bolts.
[0029] The specific implementation process is as follows: First, insert the ventilation pipe 1 into the compost that needs to be oxygen-supplied, then rotate the rotating ring 3 so that the ventilation pipe 1 is inserted into the compost from the sharp cone 4 at the bottom. The sharp cone can break the slag blocks that hinder the insertion of the ventilation pipe, and then immerse the ventilation pipe 1 into the compost. Open the sealing cover 6, connect the air pump to the air inlet 5, and at the same time connect and stabilize the ventilation pipe 1 with the pipe fixing bracket. After confirming that the ventilation pipe 1 is fixed firmly and will not tilt, turn on the air pump and input oxygen into the ventilation pipe 1. The oxygen enters the compost through the ventilation holes 2 on the ventilation pipe. Due to the spiral structure of the ventilation pipe 1 and the included angle between two adjacent pipe bodies of the ventilation pipe at the same cross-section being 30°, the oxygen supply area of the ventilation pipe 1 is greatly increased, enabling the compost to achieve extensive and uniform oxygen supply. At the same time, the oxygen blows the slag blocks stuck in the filter net back into the compost, reducing the blockage of the ventilation holes 2. After the ventilation pipe 1 supplies sufficient oxygen to the compost, the air pump can be disassembled, and water is introduced into the air inlet 5. The water flows into the compost through the ventilation holes 2, which plays a role in ensuring the humidity of the compost. At the same time, the water can also wash away the slag blocks stuck on the filter net, playing a cleaning role.
