Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of agricultural machinery and supplies technology, specifically to a leak-proof connector suitable for agricultural spraying machines. Background Technology

[0002] Pesticides are chemicals used to remove weeds or kill pests when growing crops, while agricultural sprayers are machines specifically designed for spraying pesticides. They are agricultural machines that disperse liquids and are a type of agricultural spraying machinery. Their development has brought great convenience to people when spraying pesticides on agricultural products, and their types and quantities are increasing day by day. Commonly used sprayers are generally divided into backpack type and handcart type.

[0003] The pump head is one of the core components of a pesticide sprayer, and its performance directly affects the spraying effect and the durability of the equipment. The main function of the pump head is to provide a stable high-pressure water flow or pesticide solution, ensuring that the pesticide is sprayed evenly on the crops to achieve the effect of controlling pests and diseases. During use, the pump head seals are prone to aging, wear, or damage, causing the pesticide solution to leak from the seal, resulting in water leakage. In other words, a poorly sealed pump head is one of the most common causes of pump head leakage, and the traditional solution is usually to replace the seals. The inventors of this application have discovered through research that when disassembling the pump head to replace the seals, residual pesticide solution can leak from the inside of the connector pipe connected to the pump head, directly contaminating the outside of the connector pipe and the human body. Some pesticides can affect the human nervous system, causing symptoms such as dizziness, nausea, vomiting, insomnia, headache, convulsions, and coma. Long-term exposure may increase the risk of cancer. Utility Model Content

[0004] In response to the technical problem that when the pump head is disassembled and the seal is replaced due to water leakage, residual pesticide will flow out from the inside of the joint pipe connected to the pump head, thus directly polluting the outside of the joint pipe and the human body, this utility model provides a leak-proof joint suitable for agricultural spraying machines.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A leak-proof connector suitable for agricultural sprayers includes a main connecting pipe, a first branch pipe communicating with the interior of the main connecting pipe on its bottom surface, an inner hollow base connected to the lower end of the first branch pipe, an upper reflux groove on the upper part of the inner hollow base, an inlet of the upper reflux groove communicating with the lower end of the first branch pipe, an outlet of the upper reflux groove communicating with the cavity inside the inner hollow base, a micro motor mounted on the side wall of the inner hollow base, the end of the motor shaft of the micro motor extending into the cavity inside the inner hollow base and connected to a sealing baffle, the sealing baffle being rotatable to seal the outlet of the upper reflux groove, a lower reflux groove on the lower part of the inner hollow base, an inlet of the lower reflux groove communicating with the cavity inside the inner hollow base, and a rubber air bladder connected to the outlet of the lower reflux groove via a second branch pipe, the rubber air bladder being equipped with a one-way valve.

[0007] Compared with the prior art, the leak-proof connector provided by this utility model for agricultural sprayers is designed so that one end of the connecting pipe is first connected to the outlet of the sprayer pump head, and the other end is connected to the sprayer nozzle through a pipe. Under normal spraying conditions, the micro motor drives the sealing baffle to rotate through the motor shaft to seal the outlet of the upper return groove, preventing the liquid pesticide flowing through the connecting pipe from entering the cavity inside the hollow base from the upper return groove. At this time, the gas inside the rubber airbag is discharged through the one-way valve by pressing the rubber airbag, so that the rubber airbag is in a contracted state. When the pump head needs to be disassembled and the seal is replaced, the micro motor first drives the sealing baffle to rotate through the motor shaft, releasing the seal of the sealing baffle on the outlet of the upper return groove. Then the rubber airbag contacts the air inside the connecting pipe to recover and expand, and draws in the residual liquid pesticide. This effectively prevents the residual liquid pesticide inside from flowing out when the connecting pipe is separated from the sprayer pump head, directly contaminating the outside of the connector pipe and the human body, thereby improving the safety when disassembling and replacing the seal of the sprayer pump head.

[0008] Furthermore, the upper and lower reflux channels are arranged opposite each other on the upper and lower parts of the hollow base, and the sealing baffle and the circumferential surface of the motor shaft are tightly fitted with sealing rings.

[0009] Furthermore, the rubber airbag and the second branch pipe are connected by a threaded seal.

[0010] Furthermore, the one-way air valve is located at the lower end of the rubber airbag. Attached Figure Description

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the leak-proof connector provided by this utility model for agricultural sprayers is designed so that one end of the connecting pipe is first connected to the outlet of the sprayer pump head, and the other end is connected to the sprayer nozzle through a pipe. Under normal spraying conditions, the micro motor drives the sealing baffle to rotate through the motor shaft to seal the outlet of the upper return groove, preventing the liquid pesticide flowing through the connecting pipe from entering the cavity inside the hollow base from the upper return groove. At this time, the gas inside the rubber airbag is discharged through the one-way valve by pressing the rubber airbag, so that the rubber airbag is in a contracted state. When the pump head needs to be disassembled and the seal is replaced, the micro motor first drives the sealing baffle to rotate through the motor shaft, releasing the seal of the sealing baffle on the outlet of the upper return groove. Then the rubber airbag contacts the air inside the connecting pipe to recover and expand, and draws in the residual liquid pesticide. This effectively prevents the residual liquid pesticide inside from flowing out when the connecting pipe is separated from the sprayer pump head, directly contaminating the outside of the connector pipe and the human body, thereby improving the safety when disassembling and replacing the seal of the sprayer pump head.

The sealing baffle 5 and the circumferential surface of the motor shaft 41 are tightly fitted with sealing rings 9, which can improve the sealing performance between the internal cavity of the hollow base 3 and the upper reflux groove 31 and the lower reflux groove 32. When the sealing baffle 5 is rotated under the drive of the micro motor 5 to seal the outlet of the upper reflux groove 31, the gas inside the rubber airbag 7 can be better pressed out.

[0020] In a specific embodiment, the rubber airbag 7 and the second branch pipe 6 are connected by a threaded seal. Specifically, an internal thread can be provided on the inner wall of the rubber airbag 7 and an external thread can be provided on the outer wall of the second branch pipe 6. The threaded seal connection is achieved by the cooperation of the external thread and the internal thread, which facilitates the disassembly of the rubber airbag 7 and the discharge of the medicine sucked inside.

[0021] For a specific embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 As shown, the one-way air valve 8 is located at the lower end of the rubber airbag 7, thereby allowing the rubber airbag 7 to be pressed more effectively to expel as much gas as possible from its interior.
