Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to an adjustable irrigation device for blueberry production, belonging to the technical field of blueberry irrigation. Background Art
[0002] Blueberries, meaning blue berries, belong to the Ericaceae family and the Vaccinium genus. Originating in North America, they are perennial shrub small berry fruit trees. Because the fruits are blue, they are called blueberries. As a technical measure to supplement the water required by crops, in order to ensure the normal growth of blueberries and obtain high and stable yields, it is necessary to supply sufficient water to blueberries. Under natural conditions, due to insufficient precipitation or uneven distribution, the water requirements of blueberries cannot be met. Therefore, irrigation must be carried out artificially.
[0003] The existing blueberry irrigation devices do not have the function of adjusting the water temperature. If the temperature difference between the irrigation water temperature and the soil temperature is too large, the blueberry roots are easily damaged, affecting normal growth.
[0004] When blueberries enter the fruit swelling stage, the fertilizer requirement is relatively large. To meet the nutrient requirements of blueberry fruit growth and development, it is necessary to spray foliar fertilizer to promote flowering and fruiting, increase the fruit volume and weight, and make the fruit color grow well, greatly improving the quality of agricultural products. However, the existing foliar fertilizer spraying system cannot be combined with the irrigation system and share a set of systems, resulting in an increase in cost.
[0005] In summary, it is obvious that there are inconveniences and defects in the existing technology in actual use, so it is necessary to improve it. Content of the Utility Model

[0007] To solve the above technical problems, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:
[0008] An adjustable irrigation device for blueberry production includes a storage tank buried underground. A water inlet pipe and a lifting pipe penetrate above the storage tank body, and the tops of the water inlet pipe and the lifting pipe both extend above the ground surface. The top of the lifting pipe is connected to the inlet of a lifting pump;
[0009] A first ball valve and a tee are successively installed on the lifting pipe near its top from bottom to top. The side of the tee is communicated with a medicine delivery pipe, the medicine delivery pipe extends to the bottom of a medicine storage tank, and a second ball valve is installed at the connection of the medicine delivery pipe and the tee;
[0010] The outlet of the lift pump is connected to the main spray pipe. A plurality of spray branch pipes are connected to the side of the main spray pipe, and spray heads are installed at the ends of the spray branch pipes away from the main spray pipe.
[0011] Further, the storage tank is arranged horizontally, and legs are respectively installed at the bottoms of both sides of the storage tank along the length direction.
[0012] Further, a vertical manhole pipe is connected to the storage tank. The manhole pipe extends to the ground surface, and a ladder is installed in the manhole pipe.
[0013] Further, the bottom end of the lift pipe is located at the bottom of the inner cavity of the storage tank, and an anti-blocking cover is installed at the bottom end of the lift pipe.
[0014] Further, the lift pump is fixedly connected to the side of the bracket. The bracket is composed of a vertical frame and a horizontal frame that are vertically connected, and the horizontal frame is placed on the ground surface.
[0015] Further, the medicine storage box is located on the horizontal frame of the bracket, and a cover is provided on the top of the medicine storage box.
