Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of agricultural automation and intelligent irrigation technology, and in particular to a field water intake irrigation control cabinet. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of agricultural production, traditional farmland irrigation methods have long faced many problems that urgently need to be solved, which seriously restrict the efficient development of agriculture and the rational use of water resources.

[0003] Water wastage is severe: Traditional irrigation methods often employ flood irrigation, which cannot precisely control the amount of water used, resulting in significant water waste during the irrigation process. On the one hand, due to differences in farmland topography, some areas experience over-irrigation, leading to substantial water leakage and evaporation. On the other hand, the lack of real-time monitoring of soil moisture and actual crop water requirements allows for continued irrigation even when crops do not require large amounts of water, further exacerbating water waste. In the context of increasingly scarce water resources, this poses a serious challenge to sustainable agricultural development.

[0004] Low level of automation: Traditional irrigation relies heavily on manual operation. Farmers need to manually turn irrigation equipment on and off and judge irrigation time and water volume based on experience. This not only consumes a lot of manpower and time, but also makes it difficult to guarantee the timeliness and accuracy of irrigation. In case of severe weather or when farmers cannot arrive on time, irrigation may not be able to be carried out on time, affecting crop growth and even leading to reduced crop yields in severe cases.

[0005] High labor costs: Manually operating irrigation equipment requires a large labor force, especially in the irrigation of large areas of farmland, where labor costs increase dramatically. With the continuous rise in labor costs, traditional irrigation methods have placed a heavy economic burden on farmers, squeezing profit margins in agricultural production and reducing its economic efficiency.

[0006] Low irrigation efficiency: Traditional irrigation methods, lacking scientific planning and precise control, result in poor irrigation uniformity, with some areas receiving insufficient irrigation while others experience waterlogging, affecting crop root growth. Furthermore, aging and outdated irrigation equipment leads to leaks and water loss during water delivery, further reducing irrigation efficiency and failing to meet the demands of modern agriculture for high-efficiency irrigation.

[0007] As modern agriculture moves towards intelligence and precision, intelligent irrigation systems have emerged and are gradually becoming a key technology for improving water resource utilization efficiency. However, most intelligent irrigation systems on the market still have many limitations:

[0008] Slow response speed: Existing smart irrigation systems take a long time to process and transmit environmental data (such as soil moisture and weather information), causing irrigation equipment to be unable to respond to environmental changes and adjust irrigation strategies in a timely manner. For example, when the soil loses water rapidly and crops urgently need water, the system may be unable to start irrigation in time due to response delays, affecting normal crop growth.

[0009] Remote control is inconvenient: Some smart irrigation systems have incomplete remote control functions and complex operating interfaces, making it difficult for users to conveniently control them remotely via mobile terminals or computers. Some systems even cannot be remotely operated properly in remote farmland areas with unstable signals, thus failing to fully realize the advantages of remote control and limiting the application scope of smart irrigation systems.

[0010] In conclusion, it is urgent to develop a field irrigation control cabinet that can overcome the above problems and has advantages such as high efficiency, intelligence, convenience, and low cost. This is of great practical significance for promoting the development of modern agriculture and improving the efficiency of water resource utilization. Utility Model Content

[0011] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a field water intake and irrigation control cabinet to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0012] This utility model achieves the above objectives through the following technical solutions:

[0013] A field irrigation control cabinet includes a control cabinet body and a control system. The control system includes an intelligent sensing part for collecting data, an intelligent decision-making system for analyzing data, an actuator for realizing water delivery, a remote control and communication part that can be remotely operated, and an auxiliary power supply system.

[0016] Preferably, the intelligent sensing component includes a water quality monitoring sensor installed at the water source in the irrigation area, and the water quality monitoring sensor is electrically connected to the intelligent decision-making system.

[0017] Preferably, the intelligent sensing component includes a flow meter installed on the water supply pipe of the control cabinet body, and the flow meter is electrically connected to the intelligent decision-making system.

[0018] Preferably, the intelligent decision-making system includes an irrigation controller.

[0019] Preferably, the actuator includes an electric valve and a water pump.

[0020] Preferably, the remote control and communication component includes an intelligent irrigation control cloud platform and a mobile terminal.

[0021] Preferably, the auxiliary power supply system includes a solar photovoltaic panel installed on the upper part of the control cabinet body and a lithium battery and a power distribution board installed inside the control cabinet body. The power distribution board is also installed inside the control cabinet body and is electrically connected to the solar photovoltaic panel, the lithium battery and an external power source respectively.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0023] 1. Precision Intelligent Irrigation: Through intelligent sensing components such as soil temperature and humidity sensors, weather stations, water quality monitoring sensors, and flow meters, comprehensive data on soil, weather, water sources, and water usage are collected. Based on this data, the intelligent decision-making system combines crop water requirement models and algorithmic analysis to precisely formulate irrigation decisions.

They can also issue control commands to remotely operate electric valves and adjust irrigation time and water volume, breaking through time and space limitations, greatly saving labor costs, and improving the efficiency and convenience of irrigation management.

[0025] 3. High efficiency, energy saving, and environmental protection: The auxiliary power supply system uses solar photovoltaic panels, lithium batteries, and distribution boards. During the day, the solar photovoltaic panels convert solar energy into electricity to power the equipment and charge the lithium batteries. At night or when solar energy is insufficient, the lithium batteries provide continuous power to ensure uninterrupted irrigation. This reduces reliance on traditional mains power, lowers carbon emissions, aligns with the trend of green agriculture, and is especially suitable for remote farmland areas where mains power is inconvenient.

[0035] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0036] Example 1

[0037] like Figures 1-2 As shown, a field irrigation control cabinet includes a control system comprising an intelligent sensing component, an intelligent decision-making system, an actuator, a remote control and communication component, and an auxiliary power supply system. The intelligent sensing component includes temperature and humidity sensors, flow meters, a weather station, and water quality monitoring sensors. These sensors comprehensively collect information from soil, atmosphere, and water sources, providing accurate data support for subsequent decision-making. The intelligent decision-making system mainly relies on the combination of the irrigation controller 11 and a cloud-based smart irrigation platform to analyze and process the collected data, and formulate the most suitable irrigation decisions based on crop water requirement models and preset algorithms. The actuator includes electric valves and water pumps, which precisely control the size and direction of water flow according to instructions issued by the intelligent decision-making system, achieving precise irrigation of farmland. The remote control and communication component relies on a 4G / 5G communication module and a smart irrigation control cloud platform, allowing users to remotely control the irrigation system via mobile terminals (mobile APP / WEB), breaking the limitations of time and space and making irrigation management more convenient and efficient. The auxiliary power supply system adopts a clean energy solar power supply system (solar photovoltaic panels 4, lithium batteries 8, external power supply, charge and discharge controller), which not only provides a stable and reliable energy guarantee for the irrigation system, but also conforms to the concept of energy conservation and environmental protection, and helps the development of green agriculture.

[0038] like Figures 3-4 As shown, this embodiment also discloses a control cabinet body adapted to the control system, including a cabinet 1, an intelligent irrigation control cloud platform, and a mobile terminal. The cabinet 1 has a first intermediate partition 2 and a second intermediate partition 3 arranged from top to bottom. These two partitions cleverly divide the interior of the cabinet 1 into three functionally different areas, used for housing power supply, control lines, and water circuits, respectively. This partitioning greatly reduces the risk of mutual interference between different systems and effectively ensures the safe and stable operation of the equipment. For example, separating the power supply area from the water circuit area avoids dangerous situations such as short circuits caused by water splashing in.

[0039] Solar photovoltaic panels 4 are installed on the top of the enclosure 1, which can efficiently convert solar energy into electrical energy when there is sufficient sunlight during the day. This not only provides clean energy for the entire control cabinet, reducing dependence on traditional mains power and lowering carbon emissions, which is in line with the current development trend of green agriculture; but also ensures the normal operation of the control cabinet in some remote farmland areas where mains power supply is inconvenient, providing stable energy support for intelligent irrigation.

[0040] A top door 5 is located on the front side of the housing 1, above the first intermediate partition 2. The lithium battery 8 is installed inside the housing 1, above the first intermediate partition 2. The top door 5 not only facilitates daily maintenance and repair of the lithium battery 8, but also protects the lithium battery 8 from external dust and debris to a certain extent. The lithium battery 8 stores electrical energy when the solar photovoltaic panel 4 generates sufficient power, and provides continuous power to the equipment in the control cabinet at night or when solar energy is insufficient, ensuring the continuity of irrigation work.

[0041] A middle door 6 is located on the front side of the cabinet 1, between the first intermediate partition 2 and the second intermediate partition 3. Inside the cabinet 1, corresponding to the rear side of the middle door 6, are an inner door frame 9 and an inner door 10. The irrigation controller 11 is embedded in the inner door 10. This double-door structure, consisting of the middle door 6 and the inner door 10, effectively protects the operating interface of the irrigation controller 11 from physical damage such as collisions and scratches. Furthermore, the double-door design significantly increases the internal sealing of the cabinet, isolating the control circuitry from external dust and moisture, thus extending the lifespan of electronic components. For example, in dusty farmland environments, electronic components in ordinary control cabinets may malfunction due to dust accumulation, while the double-door structure of this control cabinet effectively avoids this problem.

[0042] A through hole is provided on the rear side of the housing 1, corresponding to the position below the second intermediate partition 3. Inside the housing 1, corresponding to the through hole, there is a sliding water outlet baffle. The through hole is an oblong hole, and there are two water outlet baffles, one on the upper side and one on the lower side. Each water outlet baffle has a groove, and a locking block is provided on the housing 1 corresponding to the groove. The locking block engages with the groove. Circular notches are provided at the lower end of the upper water outlet baffle and the upper end of the lower water outlet baffle. When the water outlet pipe is not installed, the two water outlet baffles can be brought together to tightly clamp the water supply pipe, effectively preventing foreign objects from entering the housing through the through hole and eliminating potential safety hazards. When it is necessary to connect the water outlet pipe, simply remove the two water outlet baffles to easily pass the water outlet pipe through; the operation is simple and convenient.

[0043] The outlet pipe is sealed to the supply pipe. A water pump, electric valve, and flow meter are installed on the supply pipe. Both the electric valve and flow meter are electrically connected to the irrigation controller 11. The irrigation controller 11 receives data from various sensors and analyzes it according to preset programs and algorithms. It then precisely controls the opening and closing of the electric valve and the operating status of the flow meter. For example, when the irrigation controller 11 receives a signal indicating low soil moisture, it automatically controls the electric valve to open, allowing water to flow through the supply pipe into the irrigation area. Simultaneously, the flow meter monitors the water flow in real time and feeds the data back to the irrigation controller 11 for precise control of the irrigation water volume.

[0044] A lithium battery 8 is installed inside the housing 1 between the first intermediate partition 2 and the solar photovoltaic panel 4. A power distribution board 12 is installed inside the housing 1 between the first intermediate partition 2 and the second intermediate partition 3. The lithium battery 8 and the solar photovoltaic panel 4 are electrically connected to the power distribution board 12, which supplies power to the irrigation controller 11. The power distribution board 12 distributes the electrical energy generated by the solar photovoltaic panel 4 and the electrical energy stored in the lithium battery 8, ensuring that the irrigation controller 11 and other equipment receive a stable and appropriate power supply, thus guaranteeing the normal operation of the entire irrigation control cabinet.

[0045] Soil temperature and humidity sensors are buried in the soil of the irrigation area, while water quality monitoring sensors are installed at the water source. Both sensors are electrically connected to the irrigation controller 11. A weather station is installed next to the housing 1 and is electrically connected to the irrigation controller 11. The soil temperature and humidity sensors can monitor the temperature and humidity in the soil in real time and accurately. When the soil moisture is below the suitable range for crop growth, the soil temperature and humidity sensors quickly transmit a signal to the irrigation controller 11. Upon receiving the signal, the irrigation controller 11 will activate the irrigation equipment according to a preset program to replenish water to the crops in a timely manner. Conversely, when the soil moisture is too high, the irrigation controller 11 will stop the irrigation equipment to prevent problems such as root hypoxia and rot caused by waterlogging.

[0046] Water quality monitoring sensors are used to monitor the water quality of irrigation sources. They can detect indicators such as pH, dissolved oxygen, and heavy metal content. Once an abnormality is detected, such as pH imbalance or excessive heavy metal levels, the sensors immediately transmit the data to the irrigation controller 11. Upon receiving the abnormal signal, the irrigation controller 11 promptly issues an alarm, reminding staff to treat or replace the water source to ensure irrigation water quality and avoid adverse effects on crop growth. Weather stations collect meteorological information about the surrounding environment, such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, and rainfall. This meteorological data is crucial for the rational scheduling of irrigation. For example, in conditions of high temperature and high wind speed, water evaporation is rapid, increasing crop water demand. The irrigation controller 11 will adjust the irrigation volume and duration based on data from the weather station. Conversely, if rainfall is imminent, the irrigation controller 11 will suspend irrigation to avoid water waste. Through the coordinated work of these sensors and the irrigation controller 11, the irrigation system achieves intelligent response to environmental changes, making irrigation more scientific and rational, effectively improving water resource utilization efficiency, and ensuring healthy crop growth.

[0047] The intelligent irrigation control cloud platform is electrically connected to the irrigation controller 11, and the mobile terminal is also electrically connected to the intelligent irrigation control cloud platform. The intelligent irrigation control cloud platform possesses powerful data storage, analysis, and processing capabilities. The irrigation controller 11 collects data from various sensors, such as soil temperature and humidity, water quality, and meteorological data, and uploads it to the intelligent irrigation control cloud platform in real time. The cloud platform uses advanced algorithms to perform in-depth analysis of this massive amount of data and, combined with crop water requirement models, accurately calculates the water requirements of crops at different growth stages, and then formulates a scientifically sound irrigation plan.

[0048] Mobile terminals provide users with a convenient channel for remote control. No matter where they are, users can simply log in to the application or web interface connected to the intelligent irrigation control cloud platform via their mobile devices such as smartphones or tablets to check the operating status of the irrigation system anytime, anywhere, including real-time data from various sensors and the working status of irrigation equipment. Simultaneously, users can remotely issue control commands through their mobile terminals to operate the irrigation equipment, such as opening or closing electric valves and adjusting irrigation time and water volume. This greatly saves labor costs, eliminating the need for users to personally operate irrigation equipment in the fields, thus improving the efficiency and convenience of irrigation management. For example, farmers can use their mobile phones to promptly understand the irrigation needs of their farmland and remotely control the irrigation system while running errands, truly achieving intelligent and remote irrigation management.

[0049] Example 2

[0050] A field irrigation control cabinet, taking Irrigation Area 1 of a certain irrigation district as an example, has the cabinet body installed above the field outlet, and an electric valve and flow meter installed on the outlet pipe, with the valve and flow meter located at the bottom of the control cabinet. This layout facilitates equipment installation and maintenance while ensuring that the equipment is not interfered with by other components during operation. Soil temperature and humidity sensors are buried in suitable locations within the area to ensure accurate monitoring of soil temperature and humidity changes. A small weather station is set up next to the control cabinet, or the data is transmitted to the irrigation controller 11 via the irrigation district's weather station. Simultaneously, water quality data from the irrigation district's water source is uploaded to the irrigation controller 11. The irrigation controller 11 processes the received sensor data and transmits it to the smart irrigation management platform via a communication module. The smart irrigation management platform uses algorithms combined with crop water requirement models to comprehensively analyze the data and automatically generate a water requirement plan. Then, the platform issues commands to the irrigation controller 11 based on the water requirement plan, ensuring the water demand of Irrigation Area 1 by switching on or off the valves or water pumps. The flow meter integrated into the intelligent irrigation control cabinet can control the amount of water delivered and also realize quantitative water intake and terminal charging through metering. This function not only improves the efficiency of water resource utilization, but also provides an economic accounting basis for irrigation management, realizing the refinement and scientification of irrigation management.

[0051] Intelligent irrigation control cabinets based on environmental adaptive algorithms can accurately calculate crop water requirements, ensuring optimal crop growth while avoiding water waste and maximizing benefits.

[0052] 1. Precision Irrigation: Through intelligent algorithms, irrigation plans are dynamically adjusted, significantly improving irrigation efficiency and water resource utilization. For example, based on soil moisture, weather conditions, and differences in water requirements at different growth stages of crops, the intelligent irrigation control cabinet can adjust the irrigation volume and timing in real time, ensuring that every drop of water is fully utilized, meeting the growth needs of crops while avoiding water waste.

[0053] 2. Remote Management: Users can manage irrigation without on-site operation, simply by using their mobile phones, greatly saving labor costs. Whether in the office, at home, or traveling, users can easily check the operating status of the irrigation system and remotely control the irrigation equipment to turn on and off simply by opening the application on their mobile phones, truly achieving irrigation management anytime, anywhere.

[0054] 3. Energy Conservation and Environmental Protection: Utilizing clean energy for power supply reduces carbon emissions, aligning with the development trend of green agriculture. Solar photovoltaic panels convert solar energy into electricity, powering the entire irrigation system, reducing dependence on traditional fossil fuels, lowering emissions of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, and contributing to environmental protection.
