Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model mainly relates to the field of intelligent irrigation technology, specifically a support for a stable irrigation timer. Background Technology

[0002] Irrigation timers are common timing devices in agriculture, gardening, and household applications. They are typically connected to irrigation equipment in agriculture and gardening, and can irrigate crops or flowers at predetermined times to ensure that the crops or flowers receive timely water replenishment. They do not require manual operation to turn the irrigation equipment on or off, making them convenient and labor-saving to use.

[0003] The irrigation timer's inlet end is connected to the faucet, and the outlet end is connected to the water pipe, through which the sprinkler head irrigates the crops. Because the irrigation timer is connected to the faucet, the faucet is prone to breakage due to excessive water pressure caused by the irrigation timer being suspended in the air. Therefore, a bracket is usually installed at the bottom of the irrigation timer for fixation.

[0004] Existing irrigation timer brackets typically only support the timer itself, while the water pipes and sprinklers connected to the timer lack supporting structures and can only be placed on the ground for irrigation. When crops are positioned to form a three-dimensional space, the bracket may not be able to effectively irrigate crops at higher elevations. Furthermore, the irrigation angle adjustment of the sprinklers relies solely on the bending of the water pipe itself, lacking a limiting and fixing mechanism. Under high water pressure and prolonged irrigation, the sprinklers are prone to misalignment, altering the irrigation angle and resulting in poor performance. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a support for a stable irrigation timer to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a support for a stable irrigation timer, comprising a main support rod, a support plate for supporting the irrigation timer fixed at the top of the main support rod, a connecting shaft slidably disposed on the main support rod, a support foot fixed on the connecting shaft, and auxiliary support rods symmetrically disposed on both sides of the main support rod, with a limit tube detachably disposed between the main support rod and the auxiliary support rods;

[0007] The top of the limiting tube is slotted to hold the external water pipe, and the bottom of the limiting tube forms an movable window to accommodate the irrigation nozzle on the water pipe for angle adjustment. The outer wall of the limiting tube is provided with a first clamp and a second clamp.

[0008] Preferably, there are multiple movable windows. The center of the first clamping plate is semi-circular, and both ends extend outward along the diameter direction. The second clamping plate is different from the first clamping plate, and a limiting port is opened on one end of it. The number of movable windows and the limiting ports are the same and correspond one-to-one. The rotation of the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate causes the limiting port to rotate relative to the movable window.

[0009] Furthermore, the first clamping plate has first screw holes evenly distributed at both ends along the axial direction, and the second clamping plate has second screw holes that match the first screw holes.

[0010] Preferably, the main support rod has multiple first connecting holes equidistantly spaced along the height direction. The first connecting holes are screw holes, and the connecting shaft is provided with bolts that fit into the first connecting holes.

[0011] Furthermore, the main support rod has multiple second connecting holes equidistantly spaced along the height direction. The second connecting holes are staggered with the first connecting holes. The opening direction of the second connecting holes is perpendicular to the first connecting holes. The openings of the second connecting holes penetrate the outer walls on both sides of the main support rod to connect to the limiting tubes on both sides respectively.

[0012] Furthermore, an internal thread is formed on the inner wall of one end of the second connecting hole, and a groove is formed on the inner wall of the other end. One end of the limiting tube is formed with an external thread that matches the internal thread, and the other end is fixed with an elastic retaining ring that matches the groove.

[0013] Furthermore, the secondary support rod has multiple third connecting holes equidistantly spaced along the height direction. The third connecting holes have the same structure as the second connecting holes. There are multiple secondary support rods on any one side, and limit tubes are also provided between adjacent secondary support rods.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] By setting a movable window at the bottom of the limiting tube to accommodate the nozzle, and cooperating with the rotation adjustment of the first and second clamps to allow the limiting port on the second clamp to move relative to the movable window area, the range of motion of the nozzle is precisely limited. After the positions of the two clamps are determined, they are threaded and tightened through the screw holes, which can firmly clamp the water pipe and the nozzle neck, effectively preventing the nozzle from shifting angle under the impact of high water pressure, and ensuring the long-term stability of the preset irrigation angle.

[0016] By adding detachable secondary support rods on both sides of the main support rod and connecting them with limiting tubes to form a stable three-dimensional frame structure, the frame is connected in multiple positions by multiple connection holes in the height direction, which can provide multi-level longitudinal support for the irrigation water pipe, so that the water pipe and sprinkler head can be stably raised and fixed at different height positions. This overcomes the limitations of traditional brackets that only support the timer body and the water pipe can only be placed on the ground, and effectively supports the sprinkler head to irrigate crops at height in the three-dimensional space.

[0026] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0027] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Example 1

[0028] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a support for a stable irrigation timer includes a main support rod 1, a support plate 2 for supporting the irrigation timer fixed at the top of the main support rod 1, a connecting shaft 3 slidably arranged on the main support rod 1, a support foot 4 fixed on the connecting shaft 3, and auxiliary support rods 7 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the main support rod 1. A limit tube 6 is detachably arranged between the main support rod 1 and the auxiliary support rods 7.

[0029] The top of the limiting tube 6 is slotted to hold the external water pipe from the top position. The bottom of the limiting tube 6 forms a movable window 61 to accommodate the irrigation nozzle on the water pipe for angle adjustment. The water pipe is made of elastic material to facilitate locking, fixing and bending to adjust the angle of the irrigation nozzle. The outer wall of the limiting tube 6 is provided with a first clamping plate 8 and a second clamping plate 9.

[0030] There are three movable windows 61. The center of the first clamping plate 8 is semi-circular and extends outward along the diameter at both ends. The second clamping plate 9 is different from the first clamping plate 8. It also has a limiting port 92 on one end. The number of movable windows 61 and the limiting port 92 are the same and correspond one-to-one. The rotation of the first clamping plate 8 and the second clamping plate 9 drives the limiting port 92 to rotate relative to the movable window 61, thereby adjusting the size of the exposed part of the movable window 61 and thus limiting and fixing the angle of the irrigation nozzle.

[0031] The first clamping plate 8 has first screw holes 81 distributed equidistantly along the axial direction at both ends. The second clamping plate 9 has second screw holes 91 that fit with the first screw holes 81. Both the first clamping plate 8 and the second clamping plate 9 are made of highly elastic plastic material, so that they are clamped and fixed to the surface of the limiting tube 6 along the first screw holes 81 and the second screw holes 91.

[0032] The implementation principle of Embodiment 1 of this application is as follows: When in use, the external irrigation timer is placed on the support plate 2. The water pipe connected to the irrigation timer is locked in the limiting tube 6 under its own elasticity. At the same time, the irrigation nozzle on the water pipe is passed through the movable window 61 and faces the bottom. The nozzle is bent according to the irrigation angle requirement. The first clamping plate 8 and the second clamping plate 9 are spliced ​​on the surface of the limiting tube 6 according to the bent position. The limiting port 92 restricts the space of the movable window 61, effectively preventing the nozzle from shifting angle under the impact of high water pressure, and ensuring that the preset irrigation angle is stable for a long time. Example 2

[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, a support for a stable irrigation timer includes a main support rod 1, a support plate 2 for supporting the irrigation timer fixed at the top of the main support rod 1, a connecting shaft 3 slidably arranged on the main support rod 1, a support foot 4 fixed on the connecting shaft 3, and auxiliary support rods 7 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the main support rod 1. A limit tube 6 is detachably arranged between the main support rod 1 and the auxiliary support rods 7.

[0034] The top of the limiting tube 6 is slotted to hold the external water pipe from the top position. The bottom of the limiting tube 6 forms a movable window 61 to accommodate the irrigation nozzle on the water pipe for angle adjustment. The water pipe is made of elastic material to facilitate locking, fixing and bending to adjust the angle of the irrigation nozzle. The outer wall of the limiting tube 6 is provided with a first clamping plate 8 and a second clamping plate 9.

[0035] The main support rod 1 has multiple first connecting holes 11 equidistantly spaced along its height direction. Each first connecting hole 11 is a screw hole, and the connecting shaft 3 is provided with bolts 5 that engage with the first connecting holes 11. The main support rod 1 is fixed after height adjustment by the cooperation of the bolts 5 with the first connecting holes 11.

[0036] The main support rod 1 has multiple second connecting holes 12 evenly spaced along its height. These second connecting holes 12 are staggered with the first connecting holes 11. The opening direction of the second connecting holes 12 is perpendicular to the first connecting holes 11. The openings of the second connecting holes 12 penetrate the outer walls of both sides of the main support rod 1 to connect to the limiting tubes 6 on both sides. The second connecting holes 12 connect the limiting tubes 6 on both sides, and their staggered arrangement prevents the connection structure from contacting the bolts 5 and affecting its use.

[0037] An internal thread is formed on the inner wall of one end of the second connecting hole 12, and a groove is formed on the inner wall of the other end. An external thread 62 that matches the internal thread is formed on one end of the limiting tube 6, and an elastic retaining ring 63 that matches the groove is fixed on the other end. Through the internal-external thread structure at one end and the groove-retaining ring elastic engagement structure at the other end, it is possible to connect it to the main support rod 1 and the secondary support rod 2 simply by operating the limiting tube 6, which is quite convenient to use.

[0038] The secondary support rod 7 has multiple third connecting holes 72 equidistantly spaced along its height. The third connecting holes 72 have the same structure as the second connecting holes 12. There are multiple secondary support rods 7 on any one side, and limit tubes 6 are also provided between adjacent secondary support rods 7. Adjacent secondary support rods 7 or main support rods 1 adjacent to secondary support rods 7 are assembled and fixed through the third connecting holes 72 to form a stable three-dimensional frame structure.

[0039] The bottom of the secondary support rod 7 is also fixed with a base 71 to increase its contact area with the ground and improve stability.

[0040] The implementation principle of Embodiment 2 of this application is as follows: In use, firstly, select the first connecting hole 11 at different positions according to the height of the external faucet to install the bolt 5. Then, select the second connecting hole 12 and the third connecting hole 72 at different positions according to the required irrigation height to connect the limiting tube 6. During the connection process, first thread the end of the limiting tube 6 with the external thread 62, and then elastically lock the end of the limiting tube 6 with the elastic retaining ring 63.

[0041] This provides vertical support for the required irrigation height. The water pipes and sprinklers can be stably raised and fixed at different heights, overcoming the limitations of traditional brackets that only support the timer body and water pipes that can only be placed on the ground. This effectively supports the sprinklers to irrigate crops at higher elevations in a three-dimensional space.

[0042] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this application is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that this application can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from its essential characteristics. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this application is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within this application. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
