Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of highway greening irrigation, and in particular to an automatic irrigation device for highway greening. Background Technology

[0002] Green plants are often planted in the center of highways to form green median strips. These strips serve two purposes: beautifying the environment and effectively blocking the headlights of oncoming vehicles at night, ensuring safe driving. However, these green plants require regular watering. Given the high speeds of traffic on highways, traditional irrigation methods using water trucks are unsuitable. Firstly, watering in the road would obstruct traffic; secondly, water flowing onto the road surface reduces friction, posing a serious safety hazard. Therefore, to address these issues, an automatic irrigation device for highway greening is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the above-mentioned problems in the prior art, the main purpose of this utility model is to provide an automatic irrigation device for highway greening. The drip nozzle is located at the root of the greening tree. The slow drip irrigation method can achieve targeted irrigation of the greening plants, which is conducive to plant absorption and prevents water from seeping into the road surface on both sides. The slow irrigation method can achieve continuous irrigation for a long time to ensure the normal growth of plants.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: an automatic irrigation device for highway greening, including a water tank;

[0005] The side of the water tank is connected to an output pipe, and evenly distributed drip nozzles are installed on the outside of the output pipe.

[0006] A manual valve is also installed on the outside of the output pipe to control the flow of water through the output pipe;

[0007] The water tank is equipped with a drainage mechanism for draining water.

[0008] Furthermore, the top of the water tank is connected to an inlet pipe, the other end of which is connected to a water pump, and the other end of the water pump is connected to an external water source.

[0009] Green belts are often planted in the center of highways to form a green median. This serves two purposes: beautifying the environment and effectively blocking the headlights of oncoming vehicles at night, ensuring safe driving. However, these green belts require regular watering. Given the high speeds of traffic on highways, traditional irrigation trucks are unsuitable. Firstly, watering in the road would obstruct traffic; secondly, water flowing onto the road surface reduces friction, posing a serious safety hazard. This new system uses an external power source and a water tank in the center of the green belt. The tank is connected to an output pipe with multiple drip nozzles located at the base of the trees. This slow drip irrigation provides targeted watering, promoting plant absorption and minimizing water seepage onto the road surface. The slow irrigation method also allows for continuous, long-term irrigation, ensuring healthy plant growth. A drainage system cleans sediment from the bottom of the water tank.

[0010] Furthermore, the drainage mechanism includes a vertically arranged rotating shaft that is rotatably connected to the water tank. A rotating sleeve is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating shaft, and symmetrically arranged connecting plates are fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating sleeve. An agitator plate is fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting plate.

[0011] Furthermore, the outer side of the agitator plate is in contact with the inner wall of the water tank, and the bottom of the agitator plate is curved.

[0012] Furthermore, a first bevel gear is fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating shaft, a second bevel gear meshes with the outer side of the first bevel gear, a horizontally arranged rotating rod is fixedly connected inside the second bevel gear, a handle is fixedly connected to the other end of the rotating rod, a rotating ring is rotatably connected to the outer side of the rotating rod, and the outer side of the rotating ring is fixedly connected to the water tank.

[0013] Furthermore, the tooth ratio of the first bevel gear to the first bevel gear is 5:1.

[0014] Furthermore, the bottom of the water tank is arc-shaped, and a drain pipe is connected to the lowest point of the water tank, with a drain valve installed on the outside of the drain pipe.

[0015] During long-term use, sediment can easily accumulate at the bottom of the water tank. Solid impurities, once discharged through the outlet pipe, may affect the normal flow of water through the drip nozzles, causing blockages. The drainage mechanism can effectively and promptly remove sediment, ensuring water quality.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0017] A water tank is set up in the center of the green belt, and the water tank is connected to an output pipe. Multiple drip nozzles are set on the outside of the output pipe. The drip nozzles are located at the roots of the green trees. The slow drip irrigation method can achieve targeted irrigation of the green plants, which is conducive to plant absorption and does not easily cause water to seep into the road on both sides. The slow irrigation method can achieve continuous irrigation for a long time to ensure the normal growth of plants.

[0018] During long-term use, sediment can easily accumulate at the bottom of the water tank. Solid impurities, once discharged through the outlet pipe, may affect the normal flow of water through the drip nozzles, causing blockages. The drainage mechanism can effectively and promptly remove sediment, ensuring water quality. Attached Figure Description

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are some embodiments of this utility model, but not all embodiments.

[0024] Example

[0025] An automatic irrigation device for highway greening, such as Figure 1-3 As shown, it includes water tank 1;

[0026] The side of the water tank 1 is connected to an output pipe 4, and evenly distributed drip nozzles 5 are installed on the outside of the output pipe 4.

[0027] A manual valve 9 for controlling the flow of water through the output pipe 4 is also installed on the outside of the output pipe 4;

[0028] The water tank 1 is equipped with a drainage mechanism 6 for draining water.

[0029] The top of the water tank 1 is connected to the input pipe 2, and the other end of the input pipe 2 is connected to the water pump 3. The other end of the water pump 3 is connected to an external water source.

[0030] Green plants are often planted in the center of highways to form green isolation belts. On the one hand, this beautifies the environment, and on the other hand, it effectively blocks the headlights of oncoming vehicles when driving at night, ensuring that drivers can drive normally. Green plants also need to be watered in a timely manner. Since they are located on highways, where vehicles travel at high speeds, traditional irrigation trucks are not suitable for use on highways. First, irrigation that occupies the road will affect oncoming vehicles. Second, water flowing onto the road surface will reduce road friction and pose a serious safety hazard. When in use, the equipment is connected to an external power source. A water tank 1 is set in the center of the green belt. The water tank 1 is connected to an output pipe 4. Multiple drip nozzles 5 are set on the outside of the output pipe 4. The drip nozzles 5 are located at the roots of the green trees. Through slow drip irrigation, targeted irrigation can be achieved for the green plants, which is beneficial to plant absorption and prevents water from seeping onto the road surface. The slow irrigation method can achieve continuous irrigation for a long time to ensure normal plant growth. The drainage mechanism 6 is used to clean the sediment at the bottom of the water tank 1.

[0031] When personnel observe that the water level inside water tank 1 is low, the water pump 3 can be activated to deliver external water into water tank 1 through the input pipe 2 to replenish the water for the purpose of irrigating plants.

[0032] Meanwhile, the output pipe 4 is connected to the upper part of the arc-shaped part on the side of the water tank 1. This ensures that water can be extracted and that sediment does not easily enter the interior of the output pipe 4 during water transportation, thus preventing blockage of the drip nozzle 5.

[0033] The drainage mechanism 6 includes a vertically arranged rotating shaft 601 that is rotatably connected to the water tank 1. A rotating sleeve 602 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating shaft 601. A symmetrically arranged connecting plate 603 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating sleeve 602. An agitator plate 604 is fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting plate 603.

[0034] The outer side of the agitator plate 604 is in contact with the inner wall of the water tank 1, and the bottom of the agitator plate 604 is arc-shaped.

[0035] A first bevel gear 605 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating shaft 601. A second bevel gear 606 meshes with the outer side of the first bevel gear 605. A horizontally arranged rotating rod 607 is fixedly connected inside the second bevel gear 606. A handle 608 is fixedly connected to the other end of the rotating rod 607. A rotating ring 609 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the rotating rod 607. The outer side of the rotating ring 609 is fixedly connected to the water tank 1.

[0036] The tooth ratio of the first bevel gear 605 to the first bevel gear 605 is 5:1.

[0037] The bottom of the water tank 1 is arc-shaped, and the lowest point of the water tank 1 is connected to a drain pipe 7. A drain valve 8 is installed on the outside of the drain pipe 7.

[0038] During long-term use of water tank 1, sediment tends to accumulate at the bottom of the tank. Solid impurities, after being discharged through the output pipe 4, may affect the normal flow of water through the drip nozzle 5, causing blockages. The drainage mechanism 6 can effectively and promptly discharge the sediment, ensuring water quality.

[0039] By manually turning the handle 608, the handle 608 drives the rotating rod 607 to rotate, which in turn drives the second bevel gear 606 on one side of the rotating rod 607 to rotate the first bevel gear 605, which in turn drives the rotating shaft 601 and the rotating sleeve 602 to rotate. The rotating sleeve 602 drives the connecting plate 603 and the stirring plate 604 to rotate, which causes the water at the bottom of the water tank 1 to rotate, causing the sediment to float. By opening the drain valve 8, the rotating water can carry the sediment and quickly discharge it through the drain pipe 7, thus achieving the purpose of cleaning the impurities inside the water tank 1.

[0040] The outer side of the stirring plate 604 is in contact with the inner wall of the water tank 1, which can also achieve a certain purpose of cleaning impurities. The first bevel gear 605 has more teeth than the first bevel gear 605, so the angle plate 604 can be driven to rotate at high speed by slowly turning the handle 608.

[0041] Finally, it should be noted that the above-described embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
