Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the field of irrigation equipment technology, specifically relating to a timed sprinkler irrigation device for orchid cultivation greenhouses. Background Technology
[0002] In the existing technology, orchid cultivation greenhouses are important facilities for orchid cultivation, which can provide a suitable growth environment for orchids and protect them from adverse external conditions. Existing orchid cultivation greenhouses typically include a frame, a cover and a covering film on the frame, a ventilation system, an irrigation system, and a temperature control system. By controlling the environmental parameters inside the greenhouse, good conditions can be provided for the healthy growth of orchids.
[0003] In existing technologies, irrigation systems in orchid greenhouses are one of the key facilities to ensure the healthy growth of orchids. Orchids have unique water requirements, necessitating precise control of irrigation volume and frequency to avoid overwatering or drought. Orchids are very sensitive to water needs; too much or too little water will affect their growth and flowering. By setting up an irrigation system, precise water supply can be achieved, water resources can be saved, diseases can be reduced, and the growth efficiency of orchids can be improved. In practical applications, the current irrigation methods in orchid greenhouses mainly rely on manual intervention, making it impossible to irrigate on a timed basis. The degree of automation is low, making it difficult to meet the water requirements of different stages of orchid growth and development. Furthermore, the semi-automatic irrigation with manual intervention is labor-intensive, which is not conducive to improving planting efficiency and reducing labor costs. Therefore, improvements are urgently needed. Utility Model Content
[0004] This application addresses the problems in existing technologies, such as the reliance on manual intervention for irrigation in traditional orchid greenhouses, low automation, inability to provide timely irrigation, difficulty in meeting the water requirements of orchids at different stages of growth and development, negative impacts on orchid growth and flowering, high labor intensity and labor costs for workers during orchid cultivation, and unfavorable conditions for large-scale orchid cultivation. Therefore, this application proposes a timed sprinkler irrigation device for orchid greenhouses.
[0005] This application adopts the following scheme: a timed sprinkler irrigation device for orchid cultivation greenhouse, including a main body, a sprinkler assembly vertically installed on the main body, and a plurality of humidity sensors installed on the soil inside the cultivation greenhouse and connected to the sprinkler assembly via signal. The humidity sensors are used to sense the humidity of the soil inside the cultivation greenhouse. A plurality of humidity sensors are spaced around the sprinkler assembly as the center. The distance between each humidity sensor and the sprinkler assembly is defined as H, and H gradually increases along the direction in which the humidity sensors are arranged.
[0006] In some feasible embodiments, a timer connected to the spray assembly is also included, and when the timer reaches a preset time threshold, the spray assembly sprays mist droplets into the greenhouse.
[0007] In some feasible embodiments, the spray assembly includes a branch pipe body disposed on the main pipe body, and a nozzle assembly disposed on the end of the branch pipe body away from the main pipe body, wherein the diameter of the main pipe body is larger than the diameter of the branch pipe body.
[0008] In some feasible embodiments, in this timed sprinkler irrigation device for orchid cultivation greenhouses,
[0009] The diameter of the main pipe is defined as M;
[0010] The diameter of the branch pipe is defined as N;
[0011] The N and M satisfy the following relationship: 2≤M / N≤3.5.
[0012] In some feasible embodiments, the nozzle assembly includes a connecting pipe and a plurality of atomizing nozzles arranged around the connecting pipe as the center, the atomizing nozzles being in communication with the connecting pipe and used to spray mist droplets into the greenhouse.

The sealing portion includes a first connecting lug disposed on one end of the connecting pipe near the branch pipe body, a second connecting lug disposed on one end of the branch pipe body near the connecting pipe, and a sealing gasket disposed between the first connecting lug and the second connecting lug.
[0017] In some feasible embodiments, a filter assembly is also provided on the water inlet end of the main body. The filter assembly includes a first filter layer, an intermediate filling layer, and a second filter layer arranged sequentially along the water flow direction. The first filter layer is made of pebbles, the intermediate filling layer is made of nylon fiber flocs, and the second filter layer is made of bamboo charcoal.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, this application has the following beneficial effects:
[0019] This application provides a timed sprinkler irrigation device for orchid cultivation greenhouses, comprising a main pipe, a sprinkler assembly vertically mounted on the main pipe, and multiple humidity sensors located on the soil inside the cultivation greenhouse and connected to the sprinkler assembly via signals. Multiple humidity sensors are arranged around the sprinkler assembly, with a distance H between the humidity sensors and the sprinkler assembly during the arrangement of the sensors. H gradually increases along the direction of the humidity sensor arrangement. By installing multiple humidity sensors connected to the sprinkler assembly inside the greenhouse, when the soil moisture value sensed by the humidity sensors is lower than a preset humidity threshold, the sprinkler assembly sprays mist into the greenhouse; when the soil moisture value sensed by the humidity sensors is higher than the preset humidity threshold, the sprinkler assembly stops delivering mist. This eliminates the need for personnel to intervene in the irrigation system inside the greenhouse, reducing labor costs and facilitating large-scale orchid cultivation. It has the advantages of simple structure, easy operation, and convenient implementation. Attached Figure Description

The humidity sensors and the spray assembly are also connected to the host computer. The soil humidity values sensed by multiple humidity sensors will be summarized in the database of the host computer.

Multiple humidity sensors are arranged around the sprinkler assembly, with a distance H between the humidity sensors and the sprinkler assembly during the arrangement of the sensors. H gradually increases along the direction of the humidity sensor arrangement. By installing multiple humidity sensors connected to the sprinkler assembly inside the greenhouse, when the soil moisture value sensed by the humidity sensors is lower than a preset humidity threshold, the sprinkler assembly sprays mist into the greenhouse; when the soil moisture value sensed by the humidity sensors is higher than the preset humidity threshold, the sprinkler assembly stops delivering mist.
