Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine planting technology, specifically to an irrigation device for traditional Chinese medicine. Background Technology

[0002] In the cultivation of Chinese medicinal herbs, irrigation is a crucial factor in ensuring the quality and yield of their growth. As crops with special medicinal value, Chinese medicinal herbs exhibit significantly different growth characteristics compared to ordinary crops, placing much stricter requirements on irrigation methods. Traditional irrigation methods pose numerous risks to the cultivation of Chinese medicinal herbs, potentially leading to their death. With ordinary water pipe irrigation, the impact of the water flow severely damages the soil structure surrounding the roots. The root systems of Chinese medicinal herbs, such as ginseng and codonopsis, are typically delicate and fragile, with a very high dependence on the soil. Under strong water flow, soil particles are washed away, easily exposing the roots. This hinders plant growth and, in severe cases, leads to death.

[0003] An irrigation device for planting Chinese medicinal herbs, disclosed in authorization announcement number (CN222722149U), includes a storage tray for holding a wound irrigation pipe. The bottom of the storage tray has a positioning post inserted into the ground. The storage tray includes two fixed plates arranged vertically. In use, the positioning post is first firmly inserted into the ground, and then the irrigation pipe is pulled out from the storage tray. The length is adjusted flexibly according to the planting area to fully cover the medicinal herbs. After the water source is connected, the water flows through the outlet holes in the pipe wall, and the impact force is greatly reduced due to the buffering effect of the vertical distance. This process effectively avoids the soil erosion and root exposure problems caused by water flow impact in traditional irrigation, greatly reduces the risk of plant lodging, provides a stable environment for the root growth of medicinal herbs, and effectively ensures their healthy growth.

[0004] The structure disclosed in this patent has shortcomings in practical applications. Specifically, in extreme weather conditions such as strong winds and heavy rain, the positioning stake is unable to withstand strong external impacts and is prone to instability such as swaying and tilting. This lack of stability can cause the irrigation pipe to shift position, significantly reducing irrigation uniformity. Furthermore, although the tapered plug at the bottom of the positioning stake offers some ease of insertion in conventional soil environments, it is difficult to form a tight and secure bond with the soil in complex and varied terrain conditions, especially when facing hard, compacted soil or soil with high gravel content. This results in insufficient stability of the positioning stake, greatly limiting the widespread application of this device in various planting scenarios. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a Chinese herbal medicine irrigation device, which addresses the problem in the existing technology that the plug is unstable and easily shakes, leading to uneven irrigation in extreme weather and complex terrain. It proposes a solution to enhance the stability of the positioning stake in complex environments, effectively improve the plug fixing effect, and further enhance the environmental adaptability of the irrigation device.

[0006] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0007] A traditional Chinese medicine irrigation device includes: a positioning pole with multiple guide posts arranged circumferentially on its outer wall; a storage drum with a winding guide groove arranged circumferentially and installed at the top of the positioning pole; an irrigation hose with one end connected to the inner wall of the winding guide groove and capable of winding within it; a lifting sleeve fitted onto the outer wall of the positioning pole, with multiple guide grooves arranged circumferentially and engaging with multiple guide posts, and multiple limiting slots arranged on both sides of the guide grooves along their extension direction; a ground support assembly installed on the outer wall of the lifting sleeve and capable of supporting the ground; and a locking assembly installed on the guide posts and capable of engaging with preset limiting slots to adjust the vertical height of the lifting sleeve.

[0008] Furthermore, in this utility model, the locking assembly includes a locking pin, a return spring, and a locking block with a guide slope; the guide post has a hollow structure, and both sides of the lower part of the guide post are provided with locking ports communicating with the guide slot; the locking pin is installed inside the guide post, and the locking pin can reciprocate along the axial direction of the guide post, and both sides of the lower part of the locking pin are provided with assembly slots; one end of the return spring is connected to the bottom wall of the assembly slot, and the other end of the return spring is connected to the locking block; wherein, in the locked state, the locking pin moves into the guide post, and the locking block can pass through the locking port and be engaged in the limiting slot; in the unlocked state, the locking pin moves outward from the guide post, and the locking block retracts into the assembly slot after being forced.

[0009] Furthermore, in this invention, the locking block is guided and engaged with the inner wall of the assembly groove; in its natural state, the locking block is at least partially placed within the assembly groove.

[0010] Furthermore, in this utility model, the aforementioned ground support assembly includes multiple support feet and multiple positioning sleeves disposed on the lifting slide; the multiple positioning sleeves and multiple guide slots are arranged alternately, and the multiple support feet are detachably connected to the multiple positioning sleeves respectively.

[0011] Furthermore, in this utility model, the aforementioned support foot includes a connecting part and a flat support part; one end of the connecting part is rotatably connected to the support part, and the other end of the connecting part is threadedly engaged with the positioning sleeve.

[0012] Furthermore, in this utility model, the above also includes a ground anchor; the support part has an anchoring hole adapted to the ground anchor; the ground anchor can pass through the anchoring hole and be inserted into the ground.

[0013] Furthermore, in this utility model, the bottom end of the aforementioned storage roll is provided with a pivot bearing socket, and the inner wall of the pivot bearing socket is provided with a guide ring groove; the end of the positioning rod facing the storage roll is provided with a rotating tenon along the circumferential direction, and the rotating tenon is engaged in the guide ring groove.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages and beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. This application utilizes adjustable ground support components, where multiple support legs and ground anchors work together under extreme weather conditions such as strong winds and heavy rain. The support legs have a large contact area with the ground to distribute lateral loads, while the ground anchors penetrate deep into the soil to generate pull-out resistance, effectively resisting the impact of external forces such as strong winds and rain erosion, preventing the positioning piles from swaying or tilting, and ensuring that the irrigation pipe remains stable and maintains a uniform irrigation effect even in severe weather.

[0016] 2. Based on an assessment of soil texture and density, this application allows for flexible adjustment of the insertion depth of the positioning piles. For soils with weak bearing capacity, such as clay and loose sand, a deep-insertion positioning pile combined with a high-position fixed lifting and lowering sleeve is used, with locking components forming a rigid constraint. In dense soil environments such as sandy soil and hard soil, a shallow-buried positioning pile combined with a low-position fixed lifting and lowering sleeve is used. This reduces construction difficulty while ensuring the stability of the device, significantly broadening the application range of the device under different geological conditions.

Detailed Implementation

[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings. The illustrative embodiments and descriptions of this utility model are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.

[0026] Example

[0027] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 This utility model provides an irrigation device for traditional Chinese medicine. The bottom of the positioning pile 1 is equipped with a sharp anchoring structure, allowing the operator to insert the positioning pile 1 to a suitable depth according to the soil texture and density, forming a stable foundation. Guide posts 11 are evenly distributed around the outer circumference of the positioning pile 1. The guide grooves 9 of the lifting sleeve 2 of the positioning pile 1 and the guide posts 11 form a sliding pair. Limiting slots 10 are arranged on both sides of the guide grooves 9 along the extending direction. When the lifting sleeve 2 moves along the axis of the positioning pile 1 to the target height, the locking components on the guide posts 11 engage with the corresponding slots, achieving rigid positioning and ensuring accurate and reliable height adjustment of the lifting sleeve 2.

[0028] The operator first assesses the soil in the work area, determining its texture, including clay, sand, loam, and other types, while also considering its compaction. Based on this key information, the operator dynamically adjusts the insertion depth of the positioning stake 1. For soils with weak bearing capacity, such as clay and loose sand, the positioning stake 1 needs to be inserted deeply into the soil. The lifting sleeve 2 is then moved upwards along the outer wall of the positioning stake 1. Guided by the guide post 11 and the guide groove 9, the lifting sleeve 2 is raised to the highest position of the positioning stake 1. The locking component is then embedded into the corresponding limiting slot 10 of the guide groove 9, forming a rigid constraint. This ensures that after the positioning stake 1 reaches a stable depth in the soil, the ground support component installed on the lifting sleeve 2 can also be stably supported on the ground, thus providing a solid and reliable support foundation for the entire irrigation device and ensuring the smooth progress of subsequent irrigation operations.

[0029] In dense sandy soils and hard soils, where these soils possess good bearing capacity, the device can be stably installed simply by shallowly burying the positioning pile 1. At this point, the operator can move the lifting sleeve 2 downwards along the guide column 11 to a lower position and lock it in place using the locking assembly and the limiting slot 10. This ensures that after the positioning pile 1 is shallowly buried in the ground, the ground support assembly installed on the lifting sleeve 2 can contact the ground and form effective support. Through multi-point contact and a large contact surface design, the working load of the device is evenly distributed to the soil. Combined with the shallow burial of the positioning pile 1, this forms a composite stable structure, significantly improving the device's anti-overturning performance and operational stability.

[0030] The irrigation hose 5 adopts a reel-type storage design, with one end fixed in the winding guide groove 4 of the storage reel 3. The surface of the irrigation hose 5 is distributed with a microporous array, which, in conjunction with the low-pressure water supply system, forms a uniform drip irrigation flow, avoiding water flow impact that could damage the medicinal herbs. After operation, the device can be quickly disassembled and stored, significantly improving the equipment's mobility and space utilization, making it suitable for diverse medicinal herb cultivation scenarios.

[0031] This application achieves adaptive adaptation to diverse soil environments. Whether it is loose soil with weak bearing capacity or dense and hard soil conditions, it can provide stable and reliable support for the device by adjusting the relationship between the two, thereby significantly improving the stability and reliability of irrigation operations for Chinese medicinal herbs.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments of this application, the locking assembly mainly consists of a locking pin 12, a return spring 17, and a locking block 18 with a guide ramp. The guide post 11 is designed as a hollow tubular structure, and locking ports 15 are symmetrically provided on both sides of the lower part of the guide post 11. These locking ports 15 communicate with the guide grooves 9 of the lifting sleeve 2, providing the necessary structural space for the operation of the locking assembly.

[0033] The locking pin 12 and the inner wall of the guide post 11 are guided together, allowing the locking pin 12 to move stably back and forth along the axial direction of the guide post 11. Assembly slots 16 are provided on both sides of the lower part of the locking pin 12. One end of the return spring 17 is connected to the bottom wall of the assembly slot 16, and the other end is connected to the locking block 18, thus forming an elastic telescopic mechanism. The positioning pin 1 can adopt a polygonal cross-section design at the position where it mates with the lifting sleeve 2. The planes and edges of the polygon provide precise guidance for the movement of the locking pin 12, avoiding unnecessary shaking and offset during movement, ensuring that the locking pin 12 can accurately reach the predetermined position, allowing the locking block 18 to smoothly engage or disengage from the limiting slot 10.

[0034] When locked, the operator simply presses the locking pin 12 towards the inside of the guide post 11. As the locking pin 12 moves towards the bottom of the guide post 11, the locking blocks 18 on both sides of the locking pin 12 simultaneously reach the corresponding positions of the locking openings 15 at the bottom of the guide post 11. At this time, under the preload of the return spring 17, the locking blocks 18 automatically pop out of the locking openings 15 of the guide post 11 and move towards the inner wall of the guide groove 9, finally locking into the corresponding limiting slots 10 on both sides of the guide groove 9. This process forms a rigid locking structure, which can effectively resist the downward movement tendency of the lifting slide 2 due to gravity, ensuring the stability of the height of the lifting slide 2.

[0035] To unlock, the operator simply pulls the locking pin 12 outwards towards the guide post 11. At this time, the guide ramp of the locking block 18 contacts the inner wall of the locking port 15. According to the principle of force decomposition, the pressure exerted by the inner wall of the locking port 15 on the locking block 18 will decompose into a component force pointing towards the mounting groove 16. Under the action of this component force, the locking block 18 will compress the return spring 17 and retract into the mounting groove 16, thereby smoothly releasing the limiting constraint on the lifting sleeve 2.

[0036] In some embodiments of this application, the locking block 18 and the inner wall of the assembly groove 16 are slidably guided together. When the return spring 17 is in its natural state, the locking block 18 is partially housed inside the assembly groove 16, forming an initial constraint state.

[0037] In this structure, the return spring 17 and the locking block 18 form an elastic linkage system. Under the combined action of the spring preload and the external operating force, the locking block 18 can smoothly reciprocate along the guide surface of the inner wall of the mounting groove 16. This ensures that the locking block 18 maintains a precise movement trajectory even during frequent extension and retraction movements, thereby significantly improving the overall performance and service life of the locking assembly.

[0038] Please refer to Figure 1 In some embodiments of this application, the ground support assembly consists of multiple support legs and multiple positioning sleeves 6 disposed on the lifting sleeve 2. The multiple positioning sleeves 6 are evenly distributed on the outer wall of the lifting sleeve 2, and are arranged in a staggered spatial layout with multiple guide slots 9. The support legs and positioning sleeves 6 are detachably connected, allowing operators to flexibly adjust the number of support legs according to actual working conditions. Through multi-point coordinated support, the working load of the positioning pile 1 can be evenly distributed to the ground, significantly improving the device's anti-overturning performance and stability. Simultaneously, the detachable design allows the support legs to be quickly disassembled and stored after operation, greatly reducing the overall volume of the device and significantly improving the equipment's transportation convenience and storage efficiency.

[0039] Please refer to Figure 1In some embodiments of this application, the support foot consists of a connecting part 7 and a flat support part 8. One end of the connecting part 7 can be rotatably connected to the support part 8 via a pivot, and the other end of the connecting part 7 is designed with a standard external thread, which can form a precise screw connection with the internal thread of the inner wall of the positioning sleeve 6.

[0040] This structure demonstrates advantages during installation: the connecting part 7 is inserted into the positioning sleeve 6 and then tightened by screwing; disassembly is achieved simply by rotating in the opposite direction. Notably, the rotation of the connecting part 7 does not affect the posture of the support part 8; the flat structure of the support part 8 remains in parallel contact with the ground, ensuring that it maintains maximum effective contact area with the ground throughout the entire installation process. This effectively enhances the device's anti-tipping performance and operational stability, providing reliable support for irrigation of medicinal herbs.

[0041] Specifically, the top of the support part 8 is pre-set with anchoring holes 13, which are tolerantly fitted with ground anchors 14. During actual operation, the ground anchors 14 can penetrate vertically into the ground through the anchoring holes 13, generating strong pull-out resistance through mechanical interlocking with the soil medium. The point anchoring effect of the ground anchors 14 and the soil forms a three-dimensional stable structure, significantly improving the anti-overturning performance and environmental adaptability of the medicinal herb irrigation device, providing dual protection for the stable operation of the equipment.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 5 In some embodiments of this application, the bottom end of the receiving roll 3 is designed with a pivot socket 19, the inner wall of which is machined to form a guide ring groove 21. A rotating tenon 20 is provided circumferentially at the end of the positioning rod 1 facing the receiving roll 3. The outer contour of the rotating tenon 20 is fitted with the guide ring groove 21 with a tolerance. When the rotating tenon 20 is engaged in the guide ring groove 21, it ensures that the receiving roll 3 can rotate smoothly and freely relative to the positioning rod 1.

[0043] When the operator pulls out the irrigation hose 5, the storage drum 3 can automatically rotate with the pulling action of the hose, effectively reducing the tangling between the irrigation hoses 5, greatly reducing the pulling resistance, making the hose pulling operation easier and more convenient, and significantly improving work efficiency.

[0044] During irrigation, operators can flexibly move the irrigation hose 5 according to actual needs, thereby causing the hose to rotate in all directions. This allows for irrigation of medicinal herbs in different locations, achieving comprehensive coverage and meeting diverse irrigation requirements, thus providing superior irrigation support for the growth of medicinal plants.

[0045] The specific embodiments described above further illustrate the purpose, technical solution, and beneficial effects of this utility model. It should be understood that the above description is only a specific embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
