Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of soil monitoring technology, specifically to an automatic irrigation device with soil moisture content monitoring function. Background Technology
[0002] Automatic irrigation devices with soil moisture monitoring capabilities typically consist of a soil moisture sensor, a controller, an irrigation system (such as a water pump, solenoid valve, sprinkler heads, or drip irrigation pipes), and a power module. The soil moisture sensor monitors soil moisture content in real time and transmits the data to the controller. The controller has preset threshold ranges; when the monitored value falls below the set lower limit, the irrigation system automatically starts supplying water, distributing it evenly through sprinkler heads or drip irrigation. When the set upper limit is reached, the irrigation system automatically shuts off, achieving precise irrigation on demand.
[0003] According to Chinese Patent Publication No. CN220875425U, an automatic irrigation device with soil moisture content monitoring function is disclosed, which includes a monitoring component. The monitoring component includes a monitoring cylinder, a mounting ring, a humidity sensing probe, a wire, a controller, a wireless transmitter, a transmission antenna, a battery, and a solar panel. The mounting ring is fixedly connected to the middle of the inner side wall of the monitoring cylinder, and the humidity sensing probe is installed on the inner side wall of the mounting ring. This invention involves inserting or burying a monitoring tube within the distribution area of plant capillary roots. This allows for easy monitoring of soil moisture content within the capillary root distribution area using a humidity sensor probe inside the tube. By monitoring soil moisture content, a solenoid valve can be opened or closed accordingly, enabling precise irrigation of plants based on soil moisture levels. This prevents excessively dry soil from affecting plant growth and avoids over-irrigation that could lead to root rot and death, thus conserving water resources. However, the aforementioned device requires the monitoring tube to be inserted into the ground for monitoring and irrigation. Inserting the monitoring tube alone may not be stable enough and could easily cause it to tip over. Therefore, an automatic irrigation device with soil moisture monitoring function is proposed to solve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0011] The present invention adopts the above technical solution, which can bring the following beneficial effects:
[0012] 1. This automatic irrigation device with soil moisture monitoring function initially fixes the device by inserting the monitoring cylinder into the corresponding position, and then rotates the inner threaded sleeve to make the outer threaded sleeve drive the fixing nail at the bottom of the circular plate to move down and insert into the ground, thereby achieving the purpose of strengthening the fixing effect and preventing it from tipping over during irrigation.
[0013] 2. This automatic irrigation device with soil moisture monitoring function can rotate the ring pipe at a certain angle by setting a hinge rod and groove, so as to adjust the irrigation angle.
