[0038] Further, the working process of the solar energy intelligent livestock drinking water system is as shown in Fig. 2 .

[0039] 1. Photovoltaic power supply working principle

[0040] The system uses the solar photovoltaic panel 10 to absorb the energy of solar photons and convert it into electric energy to provide power for the system operation, and the excess electric energy is stored in the battery. When the light is insufficient or there is no light, the battery provides operating power. The system is designed with small power and non-frequent start operation, so the solar photovoltaic panel 10 and the battery are relatively small, reducing the investment cost.

[0041] 2. Anti-freezing principle of water supply pipeline

[0042] The system water supply pipeline adopts polyurethane integrated foaming heat preservation pipe, the heat preservation pipe has good heat preservation effect, and is provided with an electric heat tracing through hole, water in the water pipe is prevented from freezing through automatic constant temperature technology control of the electric heat tracing work. Meanwhile, the electric heat tracing can be inserted and extracted from the through hole at will, so that the electric heat tracing can be replaced without excavation when the electric heat tracing is damaged, and the maintenance cost is greatly reduced.

[0043] 3. Solar heating working principle

[0044] Water tank low liquid level water replenishment: when the water tank liquid level h < H1 (H1 is the lowest protection liquid level, and the default value is 20 cm), the water well water replenishment pump 2 is started to automatically replenish water until the water tank liquid level h >= H1, and then the pump is stopped.

[0045] Heat collection cycle: the heat collector absorbs solar radiation to rise in temperature, when the temperature difference between the heat collector and the water tank water temperature is △t = T1 (T1 is the pump starting temperature difference, and the default value is 8 ℃), the heat collection cycle pump 4 is started to lift the water in the water tank to the heat collector for heating and then fall back to the water tank, and the temperature of the heat collector slowly decreases in the process; when the temperature difference is △t = T2 (T2 is the pump stopping temperature difference, and the default value is 3 ℃), or the water tank water temperature t >= T3 (T3 is the highest set temperature, and the default value is 25 ℃), the heat collection cycle pump 4 is stopped, and the water in the heat collector and the water pipe falls back to the water tank by gravity.

[0046] Temperature control water replenishment: with the heat collection cycle, the water tank temperature rises, when the water tank temperature t >= T4 + 3 ℃ (T4 is the drinking water temperature, and the default value is 15 ℃), the water replenishment pump is started to replenish water to the water tank until the water tank temperature t <= T1 ℃ or the water tank liquid level h >= H2 (H2 is the highest liquid level, and the default value is 90 cm), and then the water replenishment is stopped.

[0047] 4. Automatic drinking water working principle

[0048] When the livestock approaches the drinking trough 17, the infrared photoelectric induction switch senses the livestock to close the drain valve and start the drinking trough water filling pump 5 to fill water. The drinking trough 17 is provided with high and low liquid level switches, the high liquid level stops water filling, and the low liquid level automatically fills water again. After the livestock leaves, the infrared induction switch 18 does not move for 5 min, the drain valve is opened, the remaining water in the drinking trough 17 is drained to the water seepage well 20, the remaining water is prevented from freezing, and the influence of the remaining water in the drinking trough 17 on the health of the livestock is avoided.

[0049] Further, the solar energy intelligent livestock drinking water system has the following functions:

[0050] The system is designed to solve many problems of livestock drinking water in winter cold climate, and a constant temperature intelligent livestock drinking water system using solar energy heating is designed, so that the livestock can also drink 10-20 ℃ drinking hot water in winter, and the main functions of the system are:
