Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of agricultural greenhouses, in particular to a snow removal system for an agricultural greenhouse. Background Art
[0002] A greenhouse, also known as a hothouse, is a facility that allows light to pass through and insulates (or heats) plants, used for growing them. It provides a growth period and increases yields during seasons unsuitable for plant growth, and is often used for cultivating or raising seedlings of warm-loving vegetables, flowers, trees, and other plants during low temperatures. Greenhouses are most commonly used in winter, but it often snows in winter. When snow covers the greenhouse, it blocks the light entering the greenhouse, affecting the lighting. Accumulated snow also absorbs heat, lowering the temperature inside the greenhouse and hindering crop growth. Furthermore, because the greenhouse's light-transmitting walls are mostly made of plastic, excessive snow accumulation can damage the plastic sheeting. Existing snow removal devices include some mechanical ones that easily tear the plastic sheeting, while others use heaters, often electric, installed on the supporting steel beams. High local temperatures can often damage the plastic sheeting. Therefore, a new snow removal system needs to be developed to meet this need. Utility Model Content

[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0019] like Figure 1-Figure 5 The snow removal system for an agricultural greenhouse shown includes a greenhouse 1, the north wall of the greenhouse 1 being a heat-insulating earth wall and the south wall being a light-transmitting plastic layer, a steam generating vehicle, a snow removal device, and a snow water collection device;
[0020] It should be noted that the steam generating vehicle includes a vehicle plate 11, to which a steam generator 12, a water tank 13, and a battery 14 are fixedly connected. A wheel 17 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the vehicle plate 11, and a handlebar 16 is fixedly connected to the rear. The steam generator 12 is in communication with the water tank 13, and is electrically connected to the battery 14. A first connector 15 is fixedly connected to the steam outlet of the steam generator 12.
[0021] It should be noted that the snow removal device includes a set of parallel slide rails 2 fixedly connected to the upper part of the north wall of the greenhouse 1, a slider 3 is slidably connected to the slide rails 2, an electric hose reel 4 and a connecting rod 5 are fixedly connected to the slider 3, a steam rod 6 is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting rod 5, and a plurality of steam nozzles 7 are connected to the bottom of the steam rod 6. The steam rod 6 is conformed to the south wall of the greenhouse 1, a steam pipe 20 is wound around the electric hose reel 4, one end of the steam pipe 20 is connected to the steam rod 6, and the other end of the steam pipe 20 is fixedly connected to a second connector 21;
[0022] It should be noted that the snow water collection device includes a water trough 8, which is located below the south wall. The water trough 8 is inclined downward to one end and is connected to a water pipe 9 at the end. A water pool 10 is provided at the bottom of the water pipe 9, and the water pool 10 is located below the ground A.
[0023] In order to facilitate sliding, a pulley 19 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the slider 3, and the pulley 19 contacts the slide rail 2. A moving motor 18 is provided inside the slider 3, and the rotating shaft of the moving motor 18 is fixedly connected to the pulley 19.

[0026] When snow accumulates on the greenhouse 1, snow removal is required. Hot water or warm water is added to the water tank 13, and the vehicle 11 is pushed to the north wall of the greenhouse 1. The steam pipe 20 is lowered by the electric hose reel 4, and the second connector 21 is connected to the first connector 15. The steam generator 12 generates steam, which is discharged from the steam pipe 20 to the steam rod 6 and sprayed out by the steam nozzle 7 to remove snow from the plastic sheet. At this time, the moving motor 18 is turned on to drive the pulley 19 to rotate, so that the slider 3 moves on the slide rail 2, drives the connecting rod 5 to move, and causes the steam rod 6 to move, thereby completing the snow removal operation on the south wall of the entire greenhouse 1.
[0027] The melted snow water flows onto the water trough 8 and flows into the pool 10 through the water pipe 9.
[0028] It should be noted that a portion of the accumulated snow falls onto the water trough and accumulates, and then slowly melts under the sun and flows into the pool 10 .
[0029] It should be noted that the water pipe 9 is blocked with a plug.
