For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0028] Reference Figure 1-4This utility model provides an embodiment of a water supply and drainage device, including an ecological wall 1. A spray pipe 2 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the ecological wall 1. A nozzle 3 is provided at the bottom of the spray pipe 2. Multiple spray pipes 2 are provided, and each spray pipe 2 has multiple nozzles 3. The nozzles 3 face the surface of the ecological wall, facilitating watering of the landscape plants on the ecological wall. A liquid storage tank 4 is fixedly installed against one side of the outer surface of the ecological wall 1. A liquid storage chamber 5 is provided inside the liquid storage tank 4, and a collection trough 6 is provided at the top of the liquid storage tank 4. A fixing recess 7 is provided at the bottom of the inner wall of the collection trough 6. The bottom of the inner wall of the collection trough 6 slopes downwards from the side towards the fixing recess 7. A filter screen frame 8 is nested inside the fixing recess 7. The collection trough 6 allows for the centralized collection of water flowing down the ecological wall after spraying. The inclined collection trough 6 allows water to automatically converge into the fixed recess 7. The filter frame 8 can filter out impurities and debris in the water and allow the collected water to enter the storage tank 4. A fixed platform 12 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the storage tank 4. A water pump 13 is installed on the top of the fixed platform 12. A water pump 13 is installed on the water pump 13, with a water suction pipe 14 and a water delivery pipe 15 respectively. The water suction pipe 14 is connected to the storage chamber 5. A filter frame 16 is fixedly connected to the top of the water delivery pipe 15. A fixed pipe 17 is installed on the top of the filter frame 16. The spray pipe 2 is connected to the fixed pipe 17. A filtration mechanism is installed inside the filter frame 16. When the water pump 13 is working, it can draw water from the storage tank 4, pass it through the water suction pipe 14 and the water delivery pipe 15, filter it through the filter frame 16, enter the fixed pipe 17, and finally send it into the spray pipe 2 and spray it out from the nozzle 3.

[0029] The filtration mechanism includes a first built-in cavity 18, a second built-in cavity 19, and a filter tank 20, all housed within the filter frame 16. The bottom and top of the filter tank 20 are respectively provided with connecting pipes 21 and 23, which communicate with the first built-in cavity 18 and the second built-in cavity 19. Solenoid valves 22 and 24 are respectively installed on connecting pipes 21 and 23. These solenoid valves control the opening and closing of the connecting pipes. A filter element 25 is installed within the filter tank 20. The filter element 25 filters the water passing through the filter tank 20, removing impurities and effectively preventing clogging of the nozzle 3. In case of a situation, the filter tank 20, connecting pipe 1 21, solenoid valve 1 22, connecting pipe 23, solenoid valve 24, and filter element 25 are respectively arranged in two sets. The outer surface of the filter frame 16 is provided with a closed recess 26 that communicates with the filter tank 20. A sealing plate 27 is nested inside the closed recess 26. A limit mechanism is provided between the sealing plate 27 and the filter frame 16. The arrangement of the two sets of filter mechanisms allows the solenoid valve structure in one channel to be closed when the filter structure needs to be cleaned. Then the sealing plate 27 can be opened for disassembly and cleaning. At the same time, the filter tank 20 structure in the other channel can continue to supply water and filter without stopping the machine for cleaning.

[0030] The limiting mechanism includes a movable groove 29 on the closed plate 27 and a limiting groove 32 in the closed recess 26. A limiting block 30 is nested and slidably connected in the movable groove 29, and a spring 31 is connected between the inner wall of the movable groove 29 and the limiting block 30. An operating recess 33 is provided on one side of the inner wall of the movable groove 29, and an operating block 34 is slidably connected in the operating recess 33. The operating block 34 is L-shaped and fixedly connected to the limiting block 30. A positioning mechanism is provided between the operating block 34 and the filter frame 16. During operation, the positioning mechanism is opened, and the operating block 34 is slidably moved. The operating block 34 drives the limiting block 30 to slide and retract, and the limiting block 30 compresses the spring 31. When the closed plate 27 is inserted into the closed recess 26, the operating block 34 is released, and the spring 31 returns to its original position, pushing the limiting block 30 into the limiting groove 32. The positioning mechanism positions the operating block 34, thus completing the positioning and installation of the limiting mechanism and ensuring that the closed plate 27 is securely installed.

[0031] The liquid storage tank 4 is equipped with a liquid level gauge 9, a pipe connector 10, and a pipe connector 2 11. The liquid level gauge 9 allows for easy observation of the water level in the liquid storage tank 4. The pipe connector 10 is located on the top of the liquid storage tank 4, which allows for easy replenishment of water in the liquid storage tank 4. The pipe connector 2 11 allows for easy drainage of the liquid storage tank 4.

[0032] A sealing block 28 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer surface of the sealing plate 27, which is nested and sealed with the filter tank 20. The sealing block 28 can ensure the sealing performance of the sealing plate 27 after installation.

[0033] The positioning mechanism includes a mounting hole 35 on the operating block 34 and a threaded groove 37 on the outer surface of the filter frame 16. A threaded post 36 is threadedly connected to the mounting hole 35 and the threaded post 36 is threadedly connected to the threaded groove 37. A rotating block 38 is fixedly connected to one end of the threaded post 36. During operation, the rotating block 38 is rotated to screw it into the mounting hole 35 and into the threaded groove 37, thus locking the operating block 34 and preventing it from moving on its own, ensuring the stability of the structural positioning.

[0034] A control box 39 is installed on one side of the top of the fixed platform 12. The water pump 13, solenoid valve 1 22, solenoid valve 2 24 are all electrically connected to the control box 39, which enables the entire structure to be operated stably.

[0035] Working principle: When using the water supply and drainage device, start the water pump 13. The water pump 13 can draw water from the storage tank 4, pass it through the water pumping pipe 14 and the water delivery pipe 15, filter it through the filter frame 16, and then enter the fixed pipe 17. Finally, it is sent into the spray pipe 2 and sprayed onto the surface of the ecological wall 1 from the nozzle 3 to continuously spray and irrigate it. After spraying, excess water automatically flows into the collection tank 6 and is guided through the filter screen frame 8 into the storage tank 4, realizing the recycling of water. When it is necessary to clean the filter element 25, close the left filter tank 20. By using the corresponding solenoid valves 22 and 24, the channel can be closed, the positioning and limiting mechanisms can be opened, and the sealing plate 27 can be pulled out to open the sealing notch 26. This allows the filter element 25 to be removed for cleaning. After cleaning, the filter element 25 can be reinstalled by operating the same method. Similarly, by opening the solenoid valve structure in the left filter tank 20 channel and closing the solenoid valve structure in the right filter tank 20 channel, the right filter element 25 can be cleaned. The structure allows for cleaning without stopping the machine, ensuring the convenience of the cleaning process.

[0036] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
