Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of agricultural water conservancy technology, and in particular to a water-saving connecting pipe for irrigation. Background Technology

[0002] With the steady development of agriculture, the amount of water used for agricultural irrigation is also constantly increasing, leading to a growing problem of water waste. Due to current technological limitations and a general lack of awareness about water conservation, water waste in agricultural irrigation is serious, and irrigation efficiency is low.

[0003] Especially in situations where multiple farmlands are simultaneously irrigated, the lack of effective detection and control methods often makes it impossible to accurately control water usage. This not only leads to a huge waste of water resources but also affects the normal growth of crops, causing considerable economic losses to farmers. Therefore, inventing a water-saving connecting pipe for irrigation has become an urgent need. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art and to propose a water-saving connecting pipe for irrigation.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A water-saving connecting pipe for irrigation, characterized in that: it includes an inlet pipe 4, several outlet pipes 1 and a sensor box 3, wherein the inlet pipe 4 is connected to the outlet pipes 1, the sensor box 3 is connected to the inlet pipe 4, and a valve 2 is provided on the outlet pipes 1, wherein the valve 2 is composed of a rotating shaft 21 and a baffle 22, and the baffle 22 is fixed on the rotating shaft 21.

[0007] The diameter of the inlet pipe 4 is the same as the diameter of the outlet pipe 1, and the outlet pipe 1 is arranged symmetrically and parallel to both sides of the inlet pipe 4.

[0008] Two mounting posts are installed inside the end of the water inlet pipe 4, and filter elements are installed on the two mounting posts.

[0009] The filter element consists of a filter frame and a filter screen.

[0010] The sensor box 3 is arranged between the inlet pipe 4 and the outlet pipe 1, in the same direction as the water flow.

[0011] The sensor box 3 is equipped with a drive panel, a data storage module, a data processing module, a data transmission module, and a flow meter 33. The surface of the sensor box 3 is equipped with a touch screen. The two sides of the sensor box 3 are respectively equipped with a flashing light 31 and an alarm 32. The input terminals of the flashing light 31 and the alarm 32 are connected to the output terminal of the sensor box 3. The output terminal of the flow meter 33 is connected to the input terminal of the sensor box 3.

[0012] The valve 2 also includes a positioning component, which includes a water outlet pipe positioning hole 23, a baffle positioning hole 24, and a positioning pin 25. The water outlet pipe positioning hole 23 is located on the water outlet pipe, and the baffle positioning hole 24 is located on the baffle. The positioning pin 25 matches the water outlet pipe positioning hole 23 and the baffle positioning hole 24 to ensure accurate positioning of the baffle.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: In scenarios where multiple farmlands are simultaneously supplied with water, this utility model cleverly incorporates a flow meter, a sensor box, and an alarm at the pipeline inlet, bringing numerous advantages through this innovative design. Firstly, the application of the flow meter allows the system to monitor water flow velocity in real time, transmitting accurate monitoring data to the sensor box. Secondly, the internal equipment of the sensor box works collaboratively to precisely process and analyze the monitoring data, providing a deeper understanding of the water demand patterns of farmland. When the system reaches the predetermined flow rate and time, the sensor box intelligently controls the alarm to issue a reminder signal, prompting staff to shut down the equipment in time. This intelligent alarm mechanism not only avoids unnecessary waste of water resources but also improves irrigation efficiency. Through precise monitoring and intelligent control, this utility model effectively solves the problems of inaccurate water use and low efficiency in traditional irrigation systems, bringing a more sustainable and efficient solution to agricultural irrigation.

Detailed Implementation

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0020] Example 1

[0021] A water-saving connecting pipe for irrigation, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the system includes an inlet pipe 4, a filter element, an induction box 3, multiple valves 2, and an outlet pipe 1. The induction box 3 is connected to the inlet pipe 4 and is positioned between the inlet pipe 4 and the outlet pipe 1, following the direction of water flow. Inside the induction box 3 are a drive panel, a data storage device, a data processor, a data transmitter, and a flow meter 33. The flow meter 33 measures the water flow velocity within the pipe, and the measured data is transmitted to the induction box 3. The data storage device, data processor, and data transmitter inside the induction box 3 process and analyze the data each time, providing a reference for subsequent specific farmland irrigation, better understanding the water demand patterns of farmland, and implementing more rational irrigation methods. The outlet pipes 1 are arranged parallel and symmetrically on both sides of the inlet pipe. Each outlet pipe 1 is equipped with a valve, consisting of a rotating shaft and a baffle. These valves control the direction of water flow, achieving precise control of each branch pipe and preventing backflow.

[0022] exist Figure 1 In the embodiment shown, during the initial stage of starting the device, each valve is in the closed state. When irrigation water is delivered to the inlet pipe 4, it first passes through the sensor box 3. At this time, the flow meter 33 in the sensor box 3 starts to work, measures the flow rate, and generates data in real time. Then, when a certain farmland needs irrigation, the valve connected to it is opened, and the irrigation water can flow into the farmland in a directional manner to meet its irrigation needs.

[0023] exist Figure 2 As shown, the sensor box 3 contains a drive panel, a data storage device, a data processor, a data transmitter, and a flow meter 33. The flow meter 33 measures the flow rate. The output of the flow meter 33 is connected to the input of the sensor box 3, and the flow meter 33 transmits the measured data to the sensor box 3. A touch screen is provided on the surface of the sensor box 3, which can be used to set a predetermined flow rate. A flashing light 31 and an alarm 32 are respectively arranged on both sides of the sensor box 3. The inputs of the flashing light 31 and the alarm 32 are connected to the output of the sensor box 3. When the predetermined flow rate is reached, the sensor box 3 will control the flashing light 31 to light up and the alarm 32 to sound, reminding people to quickly shut down the equipment to avoid unnecessary water waste and improve irrigation efficiency.

[0024] Working principle of this utility model:

[0025] Initial Stage: In the initial stage of equipment startup, all valves are closed. When irrigation water is delivered through the inlet pipe 4, it first passes through the sensor box 3. At this time, the flow meter 33 inside the sensor box 3 starts working, measuring the water flow velocity and transmitting real-time monitoring data to the sensor box 3.

[0026] Farmland irrigation stage: When a farmland needs irrigation, irrigation water can be directed to that specific farmland by opening the connected valves, meeting its irrigation needs. Each valve controls the opening and closing of its branch pipes, achieving precise irrigation control for different farmlands.

[0027] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. The substitutions may be replacements of some structures, devices, or method steps, or they may be complete technical solutions. Equivalent substitutions or modifications made based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model should all be covered within the protection scope of this utility model.
