[0023] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by this application more clearly understood, this application is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this application and are not intended to limit this application.

When an element is referred to as being “connected to” another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or indirectly connected to the other element.

[0026] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of the technical features being referred to. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. Throughout the description of this application, "plurality" means two or more, unless otherwise specifically defined.
[0027] Please also refer to Figures 1 to 2 The water level pressure stabilizing device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application is now described. The water level pressure stabilizing device 100 includes: a water storage container 10 and a pressure stabilizing component 20.
[0028] Specifically, the water storage container 10 includes a first water tank 11 and a second water tank 12, a water inlet 13 is provided at the top of the first water tank 11, and a water outlet 14 is provided at the bottom of the second water tank 12, the pressure stabilizing component 20 includes a pumping unit 21, a first pumping pipe 22 and a second pumping pipe 23, one end of the first pumping pipe 22 is connected to the first water tank 11, and the other end is connected to the inlet of the pumping unit 21, one end of the second pumping pipe 23 is connected to the outlet of the pumping unit 21, and the other end is connected to the second water tank 12.
[0029] It is understood that the first water tank 11 and the second water tank 12 are arranged in parallel, with a partition provided between the first water tank 11 and the second water tank 12, so that the space in the first water tank 11 is larger than the space in the second water tank 12. In this way, when adding water through the water inlet 13, the first water tank 11 is filled first, and then the water is pumped out through the pumping unit 21. The water passes through the first pumping pipe 22, the pumping unit 21, and the second pumping pipe 23 in sequence before entering the second water tank 12.
[0030] During use, since the water outlet 14 is located at the bottom of the second water tank 12, water can be continuously drained under the action of water pressure. However, as the water level in the second water tank 12 drops, the water pressure at the water outlet 14 will drop, resulting in changes in the drainage speed. In the present application, due to the presence of the pressure stabilizing component 20, the first water tank 11 can be continuously pumped into the second water tank 12, so that the water level in the second water tank 12 remains relatively stable, thereby achieving a pressure stabilizing effect.
[0031] In this way, the water level pressure stabilizing device 100 can improve the stability of water pressure when used for watering, and can more accurately control the amount of water discharged.
[0032] Compared with the prior art, the water level pressure stabilizing device 100 provided in the present application sets a first water tank 11 and a second water tank 12, and combines the presence of a pressure stabilizing component 20. During the drainage process, the first water tank 11 is continuously pumped into the second water tank 12, so that the water level of the second water tank 12 remains relatively stable. This can improve the stability of the water pressure during watering and more accurately control the drainage volume.
[0033] Furthermore, the pumping unit 21 is a fluid pump or a water pump.
[0034] For further information, see Figure 2 At least one groove 15 is provided at the bottom of the first water tank 11 , and the inlet of the first water pumping pipe 22 is located in the groove 15 .
[0035] It is understandable that after the groove 15 is set at the bottom of the first water tank 11, when the water level of the first water tank 11 drops to the bottom, all the water will gather in the groove 15, which can improve the water utilization rate of the first water tank 11.
[0036] For further information, see Figure 2 A continuity liquid level gauge 16 is provided in the first water tank 11 , and the bottom of the continuity liquid level gauge 16 is located in the groove 15 .
[0037] It is understandable that the water level information of the first water tank 11 can be continuously obtained through the continuous liquid level meter 16, for example, a prompt to add water when the water level is lower than the minimum threshold, and a prompt to stop adding water when the water level reaches the maximum threshold.
[0038] For further information, see Figure 3 The first water tank 11 also includes a switch door 17, and the switch door 17 is movably arranged below the water inlet 13 through a rotating shaft pin 18.
[0039] It can be understood that when the water in the first water tank 11 is not full, the switch door 17 swings down under the action of gravity, and the water inlet 13 opens naturally; when the water in the first water tank 11 is full, the switch door 17 swings up under the action of buoyancy until the water inlet 13 is blocked, which can effectively prevent water from rippling or overflowing.
[0040] For further information, see Figure 4 A plurality of water baffles 191 are further provided in the first water tank 11, and the plurality of water baffles 191 are vertically arranged.
[0041] It can be understood that by providing a plurality of water retaining plates 191 , water ripples can be effectively mitigated.
[0042] For further information, see Figure 2 The second water tank 12 is provided with a high-level sensor 19 , and the high-level sensor 19 is used to detect the water level of the second water tank 12 .
[0043] It can be understood that when the water level of the second water tank 12 detected by the high-level sensor 19 is lower than a certain threshold, the pumping unit 21 starts working; when the water level of the second water tank 12 detected by the high-level sensor 19 reaches a certain threshold, the pumping unit 21 stops working, so that the water level of the second water tank 12 remains relatively stable.
[0044] See also Figure 5 The present application also provides an intelligent water spraying system 200, which includes a visual recognition camera 30, a processor (not shown), a water spraying mechanism 50, and the water level pressure stabilizing device 100 as described above. The visual recognition camera 30, the water level pressure stabilizing device 100, and the water spraying mechanism 50 are electrically connected to the processor respectively, and the water spraying mechanism 50 is connected to the water outlet 14 of the water level pressure stabilizing device 100. The visual recognition camera 30 is used for target detection, and the processor is used to control the water spraying amount of the water spraying mechanism 50 according to the target detection result.
[0045] It can be understood that, for example, in a cleaning robot scenario, the larger the stain area detected by the target, the larger the water spraying amount of the water spraying mechanism 50 is controlled by the processor, and vice versa, the smaller the water spraying amount is, so as to take into account both the cleaning effect and the water consumption; for example, in a fire fighting robot scenario, the larger the fire detected by the target, the larger the water spraying amount of the water spraying mechanism 50 is controlled by the processor, and vice versa, the smaller the water spraying amount is, so as to take into account both the fire extinguishing effect and the water consumption.
[0046] It is worth noting that although this embodiment relies on computer programs, target detection by the visual recognition camera 30 and control of the water spraying amount of the water spraying mechanism 50 according to the target detection results are existing technologies and have been widely used in the existing robotics field.
[0047] Compared with the prior art, the intelligent water spraying system 200 provided in the present application reduces the influence of water pressure and improves the control accuracy of the water spraying amount and water spraying distance of the water spraying mechanism 50 due to the use of a water level pressure stabilizing device 100.
[0048] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent replacements and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
