The core of the filter assembly is equipped with a diversion chamber. The front of the float 10 is located in the direction of the sprinkler's movement. The rear of the outer side of the float 10 is equipped with a water inlet connected to the diversion chamber. A filter 16 is placed in the water inlet and fixedly connected to the float 10 to further filter out small debris, ensuring that the water entering the water pump 3 is clean and free of impurities. The outer side of the float 10 is fixedly equipped with an arc-shaped baffle 9. Two arc-shaped baffles 9 are arranged symmetrically on either side of the water inlet. The axis of the arc-shaped baffle 9 is located on the side away from the water inlet. The distance between the arc-shaped baffle 9 and the axis of the float 10 gradually increases from the front to the rear of the float 10. The special design of the arc-shaped baffle 9 effectively guides the water flow, pushing floating debris to the sides and preventing it from entering the water inlet. When the water pump 3 is operating, the clean water source sucked in from the water inlet unit is pressurized and delivered to the sprinkler 1, where it is sprayed out as a fine water mist, achieving uniform irrigation.
[0022] In this embodiment, the water inlet assembly includes an elbow 4, a support tube 5, a telescopic tube 7, and an elbow 8. These components are connected in sequence to form a flexible water inlet pipeline: the elbow 4 is rotatably mounted on the water pump 3, with one end connected to the water inlet of the water pump 3 and the other end connected and fixedly attached to the support tube 5. One end of the telescopic tube 7 is slidably placed within the support tube 5, and the elbow 8 is connected and fixedly attached to the other end of the telescopic tube 7. The other end of the elbow 8 is fixedly connected to the float 10 and communicates with the diversion cavity. The telescopic tube 7 is retractable within the support tube 5, and the distance between the float 10 and the base frame 11 can be adjusted according to usage requirements.
[0023] In this embodiment, the walking component 12 includes a roller and a drive motor; the roller is rotatably mounted on the base frame 11; the drive motor is fixed on the base frame 11 and is connected to the roller through a transmission device (such as gears, chains) to realize power transmission; the drive motor is electrically connected to the control cabinet 6; the control cabinet 6 is installed with a circuit control system, which can control the speed and direction of the walking component 12 so that the equipment can move along a preset route.
[0024] In this embodiment, an adjustment unit is also included; the adjustment unit includes a support rod 15, a screw rod 14, an adjustment nut 2, and a guide cylinder 13, which is used to adjust the position and angle of the nozzle 1. One end of the support rod 15 is hinged to the base frame 11, and the nozzle 1 is rotatably mounted on the other end of the support rod 15. One end of the guide cylinder 13 is hinged to the base frame 11. One end of the screw rod 14 is hinged to the support rod 15, and the other end is slidably inserted into the guide cylinder 13. The adjustment nut 2 is sleeved on the screw rod 14 and engages with the screw rod 14 thread. The lower end of the adjustment nut 2 abuts against the guide cylinder 13. Rotating the adjustment nut 2 can adjust the length of the screw rod 14 extending from the guide cylinder 13, thereby adjusting the tilt angle of the support rod 15 in the vertical plane, thereby achieving position and angle adjustment of the nozzle 1.
[0025] In this embodiment, the control cabinet 6 is electrically connected to a battery.
[0026] How it works
[0027] The working principle of the self-propelled integrated sprinkler is mainly based on the synergy of its components to achieve automatic walking and sprinkler operation. The following is a detailed working principle:
[0028] Power and walking:
[0029] The sprinkler is powered by a battery on the chassis 11, which drives the motor to rotate the rollers, allowing the sprinkler to move autonomously. The circuit system in the control cabinet 6 is responsible for controlling the start and stop and speed of the drive motor, thereby controlling the speed and direction of the sprinkler.
[0030] Water source acquisition and filtration:
[0031] The upper end of float 10 is equipped with a corrugated hose connected to elbow 4. Float 10 in the water inlet unit is placed in a ditch next to a field, where it floats up and down with water level fluctuations. The diversion chamber inside float 10 is connected to the external water body through the water inlet hole. As float 10 rises with the water level, the water inlet hole draws in water.
[0032] The design of the arc baffle 9 pushes floating debris to both sides of the float 10 to prevent it from entering the water inlet. At the same time, the filter 16 is installed in the water inlet to further filter out tiny debris and ensure that the water entering the water pump 3 is clean and free of impurities.
[0033] Water pump 3 and sprinkler irrigation:
[0034] Clean water flows through the water inlet unit and into the water inlet of the water pump 3. The water pump 3 pressurizes the water and delivers it to the water outlet. The outlet is connected to the nozzle 1 through the outlet pipe. The nozzle 1 sprays the pressurized water in the form of a fine mist to achieve uniform irrigation.
[0035] Adjustment and adaptation:
[0036] The position and angle of the nozzle 1 can be adjusted by the adjustment unit. The combination of the support rod 15, the screw rod 14, the adjustment nut 2 and the guide cylinder 13 allows the nozzle 1 to be adjusted in height and angle according to irrigation needs to adapt to different crops and terrains.
[0037] How to use:
[0038] The use of self-propelled integrated sprinkler is relatively simple, mainly including the following steps:
[0039] Preparation stage:
[0040] Check whether all parts of the sprinkler are intact, including the chassis 11, travel assembly 12, control cabinet 6, water pump 3, sprinkler head 1 and water inlet unit.
[0041] Make sure the battery is fully charged and the drive motor and circuit system are working properly.
[0042] Place the float 10 in a ditch beside the field and check whether the filter screen 16 is clean and not blocked.
[0043] Starting and walking:
[0044] Turn on the power switch of the control cabinet 6, start the drive motor, and start the sprinkler to move.
[0045] The speed and direction of the sprinkler are set by operating buttons or remote control provided on the control cabinet 6 .
[0046] Sprinkler irrigation operations:
[0047] When the sprinkler reaches the designated irrigation area, the water pump 3 is started to start the sprinkler irrigation operation.
[0048] According to the irrigation needs, the position and angle of the sprinkler head 1 are adjusted through the adjustment unit to achieve the best irrigation effect. Monitoring and maintenance:
[0049] During the sprinkler irrigation process, pay attention to the operating status of the sprinkler and the irrigation effect, and find and solve problems in time. Regularly check whether the filter 16 of the water inlet unit is clean and unobstructed to ensure the cleanliness and smooth flow of the water source.
[0050] Regularly perform maintenance on the sprinkler, including cleaning, lubrication and tightening, to extend the service life of the equipment.
