[0002] Flowers are a general term for plants with ornamental value. In a narrow sense, they refer to herbaceous plants with ornamental value, while in a broad sense, they also include herbaceous and woody ground cover plants, flowering shrubs, flowering trees, bonsai, and greenhouse ornamental plants. From a botanical point of view, they can be divided into herbaceous plants (perennial herbs and annual or biennial herbs) and woody plants (trees and shrubs).
[0003] In related technologies, flower cultivation is carried out in greenhouses to ensure suitable planting temperatures. During the planting process, watering is done manually or by spraying. Manual watering is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and watering a large number of flowers at the same time causes fatigue for the operators. After watering by spraying, the passageways between the flowers become muddy roads, making it inconvenient for people to walk.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a self-watering system for flower cultivation to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0017] Compared with related technologies, the self-watering system for flower cultivation provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0018] 1. When watering flowers, connect an external water source to the water tank. Control the water spray by switching on and off the solenoid valve. When the electronic valve is turned on, water flows into the water tank, through the solenoid valve into the connecting pipe, and then down to the nozzle for even spraying. Simultaneously, the servo motor is activated, driving the transmission gear to rotate. The rotation of the transmission gear drives the driven gear to rotate, which in turn drives the connecting rod to rotate. The connecting rod drives the synchronous pulley and synchronous belt to rotate, which in turn drives the two connecting rods to rotate. The connecting rod drives the worm gear to rotate, which in turn drives the worm wheel to rotate. The rotation of the worm wheel drives the metal rod to rotate, which in turn drives the rollers to move. The simultaneous movement of the two rollers moves the water tank above the flowers, spraying more evenly.
[0019] 2. Fertilization is a crucial step in flower care. To ensure the flowers absorb sufficient nutrients, we need to add an appropriate amount of water-soluble fertilizer to the water container. By connecting an external water source, water can flow into the container and mix thoroughly with the fertilizer, forming a uniform fertilizer solution. This helps the flower roots absorb nutrients evenly, thus promoting healthy growth. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0027] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 5 A self-watering system for flower cultivation, including
[0028] Water tank 1 and connecting pipe 2 connected to the bottom of water tank 1;
[0029] Nozzle 3 is connected to the bottom of connecting pipe 2;
[0030] A partition plate 11 is horizontally fixed inside the water tank 1. The top of the partition plate 11 is connected to a solenoid valve 4, and the bottom of the solenoid valve 4 penetrates the bottom of the partition plate 11.
[0031] The movable component 5 includes a fixed frame 51, which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the water tank 1. A limit frame 52 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed frame 51. A metal rod 53 is rotatably connected inside the limit frame 52, and a roller 54 is fixedly connected to the surface of the metal rod 53.
[0032] Fertilizer mixing component 6 is used for mixing fertilizer and water;
[0033] The moving component 5 includes a worm gear 55, which is fixedly connected to the surface of a metal rod 53. A worm 56 meshes with the surface of the worm gear 55. A connecting rod 57 is fixedly connected to the top of the worm 56. The top of the connecting rod 57 is rotatably connected to a fixed frame 51. A synchronous pulley 58 is fixedly connected to the top of the surface of the connecting rod 57. A synchronous belt 59 that meshes with the synchronous pulley 58 is provided at the bottom of the water tank 1. A driven gear 60 is fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting rod 57. A transmission gear 501 meshes with the left side of the driven gear 60. A servo motor 502 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the fixed frame 51. The output end of the servo motor 502 is fixedly connected to the transmission gear 501.
[0034] In the specific implementation process, when watering the flowers, an external water source is first connected to the water tank 1. Then, the water flows through the solenoid valve 4 into the connecting pipe 2. The solenoid valve 4 controls its opening and closing. The water is then transmitted downwards through the connecting pipe 2 to the nozzle 3. The nozzle 3 is designed to ensure even water flow for optimal spraying. Simultaneously, the servo motor 502 starts, driving the transmission gear 501 to rotate. The rotation of the transmission gear 501 in turn drives the driven gear 60 to rotate, which in turn causes the connecting rod 57 to rotate. The rotation of the connecting rod 57 drives the synchronous pulley 58. The synchronous belt 59 drives the rotation, and the cooperation between the synchronous pulley 58 and the synchronous belt 59 enables the two connecting rods 57 to rotate in tandem. The connecting rods 57 further drive the worm gear 56 to rotate, and the rotation of the worm gear 56 drives the worm wheel 55 to rotate. The rotation of the worm wheel 55 ultimately drives the metal rod 53 to rotate, and the rotation of the metal rod 53 drives the roller 54 to move. When the two rollers 54 move at the same time, they can drive the water tank 1 to move and spray on top of the flowers. This top spraying method can ensure more uniform spraying efficiency, so that the flowers can receive more uniform watering treatment.
[0035] refer to Figure 3 As shown, the fertilizer mixing component 6 includes a water box 61, which is horizontally fixed inside the water tank 1, and a drain outlet 62 is provided at the bottom of the water box 61.
[0036] Furthermore, fertilization is a crucial step in flower care. To ensure the flowers absorb sufficient nutrients, we need to add an appropriate amount of water-soluble fertilizer to the inside of the water container 61. Water can flow into the water container 61 through an external water source and mix thoroughly with the fertilizer to form a uniform fertilizer solution. This helps the flower roots absorb nutrients evenly, thereby promoting healthy growth.
[0037] refer to Figure 1 As shown, two telescopic rods 7 are fixedly connected to the top of the water tank 1, and guide rings 8 are fixedly connected to the top of the two telescopic rods 7.
[0038] Furthermore, to ensure the directional accuracy of water tank 1 during movement, the designers incorporated guide rings 8. These guide rings 8 can pass through the steel ropes inside the greenhouse, thereby providing precise guidance for water tank 1 and effectively preventing directional confusion during movement, ensuring the smooth and accurate movement of water tank 1.
[0039] refer to Figure 1 As shown, an auxiliary wheel 9 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the fixing frame 51, and the auxiliary wheel 9 is located outside the roller 54.
[0040] Furthermore, during the movement of the rollers 54 of the water tank 1, the designers considered the issue of stability and therefore specially added the design of auxiliary wheels 9. These auxiliary wheels 9 can provide additional support to ensure excellent support effect, thereby effectively preventing the water tank 1 from tipping over during movement, ensuring the safety of the user and the stable operation of the equipment.
[0041] Furthermore, the bottom of the water tank 1 is rotatably connected to multiple clamping rods 10, which are slidably connected to the timing belt 59.
[0042] refer to Figure 5 As shown, in order to ensure the stability and durability of the timing belt 59 during use, the designer has set up the clamping rod 10 to effectively clamp and support the outer side of the timing belt 59. This can prevent the timing belt 59 from becoming loose, ensure the tight fit and smooth operation of the timing belt 59, and greatly improve the user experience and the service life of the equipment.
[0043] The working principle of the self-watering system for flower cultivation provided by this utility model is as follows:
[0044] When watering the flowers is needed, an external water source is connected to the water tank 1. The water spray is controlled by switching on and off the solenoid valve 4. When the electronic valve is turned on, water flows into the water tank 1, through the solenoid valve 4, and into the connecting pipe 2. From there, it is transmitted downwards through the connecting pipe 2 to the nozzle 3 for even distribution. Simultaneously, the servo motor 502 is activated, driving the transmission gear 501 to rotate. The rotation of the transmission gear 501 drives the driven gear 60 to rotate, which in turn drives the connecting rod 57 to rotate. The connecting rod 57 then drives the synchronous pulley 58 and the synchronous belt 59 to rotate. The transmission rotates, driving the two connecting rods 57 to rotate via the synchronous pulley 58 and synchronous belt 59. The connecting rods 57 drive the worm gear 56 to rotate, which in turn drives the worm wheel 55 to rotate. The rotation of the worm wheel 55 drives the metal rod 53 to rotate, which in turn drives the roller 54 to move. The simultaneous movement of the two rollers 54 can move the water tank 1 to spray on top of the flowers, resulting in more even spraying efficiency. Secondly, when it is necessary to fertilize the flowers, water-soluble fertilizer is added to the inside of the water box 61. When an external water source enters the water box 61, it can be fully mixed evenly, facilitating uniform fertilization.
[0045] The above are merely embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the description and drawings of this utility model, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
