Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of irrigation device technology, and in particular to a water-saving irrigation device for elevated flower boxes. Background Technology

[0002] To improve driving safety and beautify the road landscape, flower boxes are usually installed on elevated roads, and plants are planted in the flower boxes. During the plant growth process, irrigation devices are used to water and moisten the soil in the flower boxes to ensure the plants' growth needs.

[0003] To prevent excessive water from affecting the normal growth of vegetation during rainy weather or irrigation, drainage holes are usually made at the bottom of the flower boxes to allow excess water to drain out. However, during the drainage process, organic matter, such as organic fertilizer, is carried away from the soil. Therefore, staff need to regularly add organic matter to each flower box on the elevated platform, especially during the rainy season, to ensure the normal growth of the vegetation. This increases the workload of the staff and the consumption of organic matter. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a water-saving irrigation device for elevated flower boxes.

[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: an elevated flower box water-saving irrigation device, comprising a water storage tank, an irrigation mechanism for watering plants in the flower box provided on the water storage tank, a channel for placing the flower box connected to the guardrail on the side of the elevated bridge provided on one side of the water storage tank, a corrugated pipe fixed and connected to the bottom of the channel, a filter box fixed on the side wall of the water storage tank, the end of the corrugated pipe away from the channel connected to the inside of the filter box, a drain pipe fixed and connected to the inner wall of the filter box near the water storage tank, the drain pipe extending into the water storage tank, and a filter mechanism for filtering the water flow discharged into the filter box from the corrugated pipe provided inside the filter box.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, when watering the soil in the flower boxes or during rainy weather, excess water first flows from the bottom of the flower box into the channel, then flows along the channel into the corrugated pipe, then into the filter box, and finally into the water storage tank through the drain pipe. When watering is needed next time, the water in the storage tank can be used for watering through the watering mechanism. This recycling method reduces the frequency of workers adding organic matter to the flower boxes on the elevated structure, and reduces the workload of workers and the consumption of organic matter.

[0007] Furthermore, the filtration mechanism includes a filtration assembly, which includes a filter cylinder that is disposed through and fixed to the top of the filter box, and a drain pipe that is fixed to and communicates with the bottom of the filter cylinder. The filter cylinder has multiple filter holes disposed through its side wall. The lower end of the drain pipe is disposed through and fixed to the bottom of the filter box. The filtration mechanism also includes a sealing assembly for preventing water from being discharged from the filter cylinder through the drain pipe when the filter cylinder is filtering water.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, during the process of water flowing from the corrugated pipe into the water storage tank, the water first flows into the filter cartridge through the corrugated pipe. Fine soil and water are discharged into the filter box through the filter holes, while large soil particles remain in the filter cartridge. Finally, the fine soil and water are discharged into the water storage tank through the drain pipe for storage. By filtering the water flow, the probability of clogging during the use of the device is reduced.

[0009] Furthermore, the sealing assembly includes a sealing plug that slides against the inner wall of the drain pipe, an inclined tube that is fixed to and connected to the lower end of the drain pipe, and a vertical rod fixed to the bottom of the sealing plug. The vertical rod passes through the side wall of the inclined tube near the water storage tank and slides against it. The distance between the axis of the inclined tube and the vertical rod gradually increases from top to bottom. The sealing assembly also includes an electro-hydraulic push rod fixed to the bottom of the filter box and a horizontal plate fixed to the end of the push rod of the electro-hydraulic push rod. The lower end of the vertical rod is fixed to the top of the horizontal plate.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, after the electric hydraulic push rod is working, it drives the push rod end of the electric hydraulic push rod to retract to the shortest position, so that the horizontal plate fixed to the push rod end, the vertical rod connected to the horizontal plate, and the sealing plug connected to the vertical rod all rise until the sealing plug separates from the drain pipe. At this time, large particles of sludge in the filter cartridge are discharged through the drain pipe and the inclined pipe, ensuring the subsequent filtration work.

[0011] Furthermore, the filter box is provided with a cleaning mechanism, which includes a cleaning assembly. The cleaning assembly includes an annular tube sleeved on the filter cartridge and located inside the filter box, and a threaded vertical tube fixed to and communicating with the top of the annular tube. Multiple cleaning holes are provided through the side wall of the annular tube near the filter cartridge. The upper end of the threaded vertical tube passes through the top of the filter box and is clearance-fitted. The cleaning assembly also includes a threaded sleeve rotatably installed on the top of the filter box and threadedly connected to the threaded vertical tube. The cleaning mechanism also includes a rotating assembly for driving the threaded sleeve to rotate and a water supply assembly for supplying water to the annular tube when the annular tube cleans the filter cartridge.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the staff drives the threaded sleeve to rotate by rotating the component. Since the annular tube is sleeved on the filter cartridge and the upper end of the threaded vertical tube passes through the top of the filter box with a clearance fit, the threaded vertical tube connected to the threaded sleeve and the annular tube connected to the threaded vertical tube rise or fall. At the same time, water is supplied to the annular tube through the water supply component, and the water flow will spray out from the cleaning hole and wash the surface of the filter cartridge, reducing the probability of mud clogging the filter holes and affecting the filter cartridge filtration.

[0013] Furthermore, the irrigation mechanism includes a water pump fixed to the top of the water storage tank, a pumping pipe fixed to and connected to the water inlet of the water pump, an outlet pipe fixed to and connected to the water outlet of the water pump, a connecting pipe fixed to and connected to the side wall of the outlet pipe, and an annular irrigation pipe fixed to and connected to the end of the connecting pipe away from the outlet pipe. The pumping pipe extends to a position close to the bottom of the water storage tank, and the annular irrigation pipe is arranged around the flower box. Multiple irrigation holes are provided through the inner side of the annular irrigation pipe.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, after the water pump starts working, water first enters the water pump through the pumping pipe and the water inlet end of the water pump. Then, the water is discharged into the outlet pipe from the water outlet end of the water pump. Then, the water is discharged into the ring irrigation pipe through the connecting pipe. Finally, the water is discharged from the irrigation hole, which moistens the soil in the flower box and ensures the normal growth of the plants in the flower box.

[0015] Furthermore, the rotating assembly includes a mounting bracket fixed to the top of the filter box, a rotating motor fixed to the mounting bracket, a drive gear fixedly sleeved on the output end of the rotating motor, and a driven gear fixedly sleeved on the threaded sleeve and meshing with the drive gear.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, after the rotating motor works, it drives the driving gear to rotate, thereby causing the driven gear meshing with the driving gear and the threaded sleeve connected to the driven gear to rotate, thus achieving the purpose of lowering or raising the threaded vertical tube and the annular tube.

[0017] Furthermore, the water supply assembly includes a water supply pipe fixed to and connected to the side wall of the outlet pipe, and a flexible hose fixed to and connected to the end of the water supply pipe away from the outlet pipe. The end of the flexible hose away from the water supply pipe is fixed to and connected to the upper end of the threaded vertical pipe. Both the outlet pipe and the water supply pipe are equipped with solenoid valves, and the solenoid valve on the outlet pipe is located on the upper side of the water supply pipe.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, after the water pump starts working, the water in the storage tank is discharged into the outlet pipe from the outlet end. At the same time, the solenoid valve on the outlet pipe is closed and the solenoid valve on the supply pipe is opened. At this time, the water first enters the hose from the supply pipe, then enters the threaded vertical pipe from the hose, and finally enters the annular pipe from the threaded vertical pipe, which can clean the filter cartridge. The clean water will be discharged into the storage tank from the drain pipe for storage, thus realizing the purpose of water recycling and reducing resource waste.

[0019] Furthermore, the distance between the inner bottom wall of the channel and the axis of the corrugated pipe gradually decreases from top to bottom.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, water can flow from the channel into the corrugated pipe.

[0021] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: In this application, by setting up channels, filter boxes, corrugated pipes and water storage tanks, excess water discharged from the flower boxes is collected and reused, reducing the frequency of workers adding organic matter to the flower boxes on the elevated structure, and reducing the workload of workers and the consumption of organic matter.

Detailed Implementation

[0029] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0030] like Figure 1-6 As shown in the figure, this application discloses a water-saving irrigation device for elevated flower boxes, including a water storage tank 1, an irrigation mechanism 2, a filtration mechanism 7, and a cleaning mechanism 8. A channel 3 is provided on one side of the water storage tank 1, connected to the guardrail on the side of the elevated bridge, for placing flower boxes (in this embodiment, the shape of the channel 3 is not a single shape shown in the figure; the specific shape changes according to the shape changes along the length of the elevated bridge. For example, if the side wall or guardrail of the elevated bridge is curved, the channel 3 can be manufactured accordingly in a curved state). The distance between the inner bottom wall of the channel 3 and the axis of the corrugated pipe 4 gradually decreases from top to bottom. The bottom of the channel 3 is fixed and connected to the corrugated pipe 4, and a filter box 5 is fixed on the side wall of the water storage tank 1. The end of the corrugated pipe 4 away from the channel 3 is connected to the inside of the filter box 5. A drain pipe 6 is fixed and connected to the inner wall of the filter box 5 on the side closer to the water storage tank 1, and the drain pipe 6 extends into the water storage tank 1.

[0031] Irrigation mechanism 2 is installed on water storage tank 1 and is used to water the plants in the flower box. Irrigation mechanism 2 includes a water pump 21, a pumping pipe 22, an outlet pipe 23, a connecting pipe 24, and a ring-shaped irrigation pipe 25. The water pump 21 is fixed to the top of water storage tank 1. The pumping pipe 22 is fixed to and connected to the inlet end of the water pump 21, and extends to a position near the bottom of the water storage tank 1. The outlet pipe 23 is fixed to and connected to the outlet end of the water pump 21, and the connecting pipe 24 is fixed to and connected to the side wall of the outlet pipe 23. The ring-shaped irrigation pipe 25 is fixed to and connected to the end of the connecting pipe 24 away from the outlet pipe 23, and the ring-shaped irrigation pipe 25 is arranged around the flower box, with multiple irrigation holes penetrating through the inner side of the ring-shaped irrigation pipe 25.

[0032] When watering the soil in the flower boxes or during rainy weather, excess water first flows from the bottom of the flower box into channel 3, then along channel 3 into corrugated pipe 4, then from corrugated pipe 4 into filter box 5, and finally through drain pipe 6 into water storage tank 1 for storage. When watering again, after water pump 21 is working, water first enters water pump 21 through water pump pipe 22 and water pump inlet, then water is discharged from water pump 21 outlet into outlet pipe 23, then water is discharged through connecting pipe 24 into ring irrigation pipe 25, and finally discharged through irrigation hole, moistening the soil in the flower box and ensuring the normal growth of the plants in the flower box. This recycling method reduces the frequency of adding organic matter to the flower boxes on the elevated structure, reducing the workload of the staff and the consumption of organic matter.

[0033] A filtration mechanism 7 is disposed within a filter box 5 and is used to filter the water flow that enters the filter box 5 through the corrugated pipe 4. The filtration mechanism 7 includes a filter assembly 71 and a sealing assembly 72. The filter assembly 71 includes a filter cartridge 711 and a drain pipe 712. The filter cartridge 711 is disposed through and fixed to the top of the filter box 5, and multiple filter holes are provided through its side wall. The drain pipe 712 is fixed to and communicates with the bottom of the filter cartridge 711, and its lower end penetrates through and is fixed to the bottom of the filter box 5.

[0034] During the process of water flowing from the corrugated pipe 4 into the water storage tank 1, the water first flows into the filter cartridge 711 through the corrugated pipe 4. Fine soil and water are discharged into the filter box 5 through the filter holes, while large soil particles remain in the filter cartridge 711. Finally, the fine soil and water are discharged into the water storage tank 1 through the drain pipe 6 for storage. By filtering the water flow, the probability of clogging during the use of the device is reduced.

[0035] The sealing assembly 72 is used to prevent water from being discharged from the filter cartridge 711 through the drain pipe 712 when the filter cartridge 711 is filtering water. The sealing assembly 72 includes a sealing plug 721, an inclined tube 722, a vertical rod 723, an electro-hydraulic push rod 724, and a horizontal plate 725. The sealing plug 721 is slidably engaged with the inner wall of the drain pipe 712, and the inclined tube 722 is fixed to and connected to the lower end of the drain pipe 712. The distance between the axes of the inclined tube 722 and the vertical rod 723 gradually increases from top to bottom, and the vertical rod 723 is fixed to the bottom of the sealing plug 721. The vertical rod 723 passes through the side wall of the inclined tube 722 near the water storage tank 1 and is slidably engaged, and the electro-hydraulic push rod 724 is fixed to the bottom of the filter box 5. The horizontal plate 725 is fixed to the push rod end of the electro-hydraulic push rod 724, and the lower end of the vertical rod 723 is fixed to the top of the horizontal plate 725.

[0036] After the electro-hydraulic push rod 724 is activated, it causes the push rod end of the electro-hydraulic push rod 724 to retract to its shortest position, so that the horizontal plate 725 fixed to the push rod end, the vertical rod 723 connected to the horizontal plate 725, and the sealing plug 721 connected to the vertical rod 723 all rise until the sealing plug 721 separates from the drain pipe 712. At this time, large particles of sludge in the filter cartridge 711 are discharged through the drain pipe 712 and the inclined pipe 722, ensuring subsequent filtration work.

[0037] The cleaning mechanism 8 includes a cleaning component 81, a rotating component 82, and a water supply component 83. The cleaning component 81 includes an annular pipe 811, a threaded vertical pipe 812, and a threaded sleeve 813. The annular pipe 811 is fitted onto the filter cartridge 711 and located inside the filter box 5. Multiple cleaning holes are provided through the side wall of the annular pipe 811 near the filter cartridge 711. The threaded vertical pipe 812 is fixed to and communicates with the top of the annular pipe 811. The upper end of the threaded vertical pipe 812 penetrates the top of the filter box 5 and is clearance-fitted. The threaded sleeve 813 is threadedly connected to the threaded vertical pipe 812.

[0038] The rotating assembly 82 is used to drive the threaded sleeve 813 to rotate. The rotating assembly 82 includes a mounting bracket 821, a rotating motor 822, a driving gear 823, and a driven gear 824. The mounting bracket 821 is fixed to the top of the filter box 5, and the rotating motor 822 is fixed to the mounting bracket 821. The driving gear 823 is fixedly sleeved on the output end of the rotating motor 822, and the driven gear 824 is fixedly sleeved on the threaded sleeve 813 and meshes with the driving gear 823.

[0039] The water supply assembly 83 is used to supply water to the annular pipe 811 when cleaning the filter cartridge 711. The water supply assembly 83 includes a water supply pipe 831 and a hose 832. The water supply pipe 831 is fixed to and connected to the side wall of the outlet pipe 23. The hose 832 is fixed to and connected to the end of the water supply pipe 831 away from the outlet pipe 23. The end of the hose 832 away from the water supply pipe 831 is fixed to and connected to the upper end of the threaded vertical pipe 812. Both the outlet pipe 23 and the water supply pipe 831 are equipped with solenoid valves. The solenoid valve on the outlet pipe 23 is located on the upper side of the water supply pipe 831.

[0040] During the cleaning of filter cartridge 711, water pump 21 operates, draining water from storage tank 1 into outlet pipe 23. Simultaneously, the solenoid valve on outlet pipe 23 is closed, while the solenoid valve on supply pipe 831 is opened. Water then flows from supply pipe 831 into hose 832, then from hose 832 into threaded vertical pipe 812, and finally from threaded vertical pipe 812 into annular pipe 811. Subsequently, rotating motor 822 drives drive gear 823 to rotate, thereby causing the drive gear... The driven gear 824 meshing with the wheel 823 and the threaded sleeve 813 connected to the driven gear 824 both rotate. Since the annular tube 811 is sleeved on the filter cartridge 711 and the upper end of the threaded vertical tube 812 passes through the top of the filter box 5 and is clearance-fitted, the threaded vertical tube 812 threadedly connected to the threaded sleeve 813 and the annular tube 811 connected to the threaded vertical tube 812 rise or fall, which can realize the washing of the surface of the filter cartridge 711, reducing the probability of mud clogging the filter holes and affecting the filtration of the filter cartridge 711.
