[0026] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 1-7As shown, a drip irrigation valve controller is provided, including a housing 1 and a control component 2. The housing 1 has an installation cavity 11 and a clearance cavity 12. One end of the installation cavity 11 is provided with a water inlet, and the other end is provided with at least one water outlet. The clearance cavity 12 is located on the side of the installation cavity 11, which can be the upper side or the left side, and has an opening. A battery pack is installed in the clearance cavity 12. The control component 2 includes a water inlet pipe 21 and a water outlet pipe 22. The water inlet pipe 21 is installed in the water inlet, and the water outlet pipe 22 is installed in the water outlet. Each water outlet pipe 22 is provided with a regulating valve 23. The other end of the regulating valve 23 is connected to the water inlet pipe 21, and the top surface of the regulating valve 23 is in clearance fit with the battery pack.

[0027] Furthermore, the number of water outlets is at least two, and the number of water outlet pipes 22 and regulating valves 23 corresponds to the number of water outlets. The inlet pipe 21 is provided with a branch pipe 211, one end of which is connected to the regulating valve 23. Specifically, in one embodiment, there is one water outlet on the outer casing 1, and one water outlet pipe 22 is provided inside the water outlet. In this embodiment, a regulating valve 23 is provided at the inlet of the water outlet pipe 22 and connected to the inlet pipe 21 to achieve the effect of regulating drip irrigation with one water pipe. In another embodiment, there are two water outlets on the outer casing 1, and each water outlet is provided with one water outlet pipe 22. In this embodiment, a regulating valve 23 is provided at the inlet of each water outlet pipe 22, and the inlet pipe 21 extends to the two water outlet pipes 22 with a branch pipe 211, which is connected to the regulating valve 23 to achieve the effect of controlling multiple water pipes.

[0028] Furthermore, a battery compartment 24 is detachably connected within the opening for installing the battery pack. The battery compartment 24 includes a groove 241 and a cover 242. The groove 241 is integrally formed with the outer shell 1. The cover 242 has elastic buckles 243 on both sides for engaging with the sides of the opening. Specifically, when installing the battery pack, the elastic buckles 243 on both sides of the cover 242 are pinched to separate them from the sides of the opening. The battery pack is then placed into the battery compartment 24. The cover 242 is then placed on the top surface of the battery compartment 24 and connected to the sides of the opening via the elastic buckles 243. The connecting wires are connected to the battery pack through contact plates located within the battery compartment 24.

Specifically, the mounting cavity 11 is disposed within the base 10, and the battery compartment 24 is disposed on the cover plate 101. After the base 10 and the cover plate 101 are installed, a clearance cavity 12 is formed between the mounting cavity 11 and the battery compartment 24, isolating the battery compartment 24 from the regulating valve 23 within the mounting cavity 11, thus achieving a clearance effect.

[0031] Working principle: Irrigation water is input through the inlet pipe 21 during use. The water flow is regulated by the regulating valve 23 and then output through the outlet pipe 22 to achieve the regulation effect. The regulating valve 23 is powered by the battery pack. The regulating valve 23 is connected to the battery pack through the connecting wire. By setting the cavity 12, the regulating valve 23 and the battery pack can be made to cooperate without gaps. It can also shorten the distance between the regulating valve 23 and the battery pack, thereby shortening the length of the connecting wire used to connect the regulating valve 23 and the battery pack, reducing the difficulty of wiring, and reducing the cost of the product.

[0032] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto.
