[0023] Please see Figures 1 to 4This embodiment of a smart control device for corn irrigation includes a water collection tank 1, an irrigation main pipe 2, and a column 3. The water collection tank 1 is equipped with a water collection and filtration structure, which includes a fixed support plate 26 fixedly installed on the upper surface of the water collection tank 1. A trapezoidal water collection trough 4 is fixedly installed on the surface of the fixed support plate 26. A water collection pipe 5 connected to the water collection tank 1 is fixedly installed on the inner surface of the trapezoidal water collection trough 4. A grid support plate 6 is fixedly installed inside the trapezoidal water collection trough 4. A first filter pad 7 is fixedly installed on the surface of the grid support plate 6.

Infiltration holes 9 are opened on the upper surface of the hollow water collection plate 8. A second filter pad 10 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the hollow water collection plate 8.
[0024] It should be noted that a reinforcing rectangular frame 19 is fixedly installed inside the water collection tank 1. There are multiple reinforcing rectangular frames 19 and they are evenly distributed inside the water collection tank 1. By setting the reinforcing rectangular frames 19, the strength of the water collection tank 1 can be improved, and the water collection tank 1 can be prevented from being crushed.
[0025] It should be noted that a base plate 20 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the column 3, an anchor rod 21 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the base plate 20, and an anchor plate 22 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the anchor rod 21. The installation stability of the column 3 can be improved by setting the anchor rod 21 and the anchor plate 22.
[0026] The system includes multiple fixed support plates 26 and water collection pipes 5, which are evenly and alternately distributed between the water collection tank 1 and the trapezoidal water collection trough 4. This improves the connection between the water collection tank 1 and the trapezoidal water collection trough 4, and facilitates the introduction of rainwater from the trapezoidal water collection trough 4 into the water collection tank 1 for storage.
[0027] A filling control assembly is provided between the water collection tank 1, the irrigation main pipe 2 and the column 3. The filling control assembly includes a control box 11 fixedly installed on the surface of the column 3. A booster pump 12 is fixedly installed inside the water collection tank 1. A water delivery pipe 13 that passes through the water collection tank 1 and is connected to the irrigation main pipe 2 is fixedly installed at the water outlet end of the booster pump 12. A number of evenly distributed risers 14 and mounting plates 15 are fixedly installed on the surface of the irrigation main pipe 2. A nozzle 16 is fixedly installed on the top of the riser 14. A soil moisture sensor 17 is fixedly installed on the surface of the mounting plate 15.
[0028] It should be noted that the inside of the column 3 is a hollow structure. A conduit 18 is fixedly installed on the surface of the water collection tank 1, which is connected to the water collection tank 1 and extends into the inside of the column 3. The conduit 18 is connected to the control box 11. The conduit 18 facilitates the placement of connecting wires between the control box 11 and the booster pump 12, thus facilitating the connection of power and signals between the control box 11 and the booster pump 12.
[0029] The surface of the column 3 is equipped with an energy storage component, which includes a solar panel 23, an energy storage battery 24 and an inverter 25 fixedly installed on the surface of the column 3. By setting up the energy storage component, solar energy can be converted into electrical energy and stored to provide power for the irrigation smart control device.
[0030] The solar panels 23 are multiple and arranged in a ring on the surface of the column 3, with equal spacing between adjacent solar panels 23.
[0031] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the soil moisture sensor 17 and the control box 11 are connected by a dedicated connecting cable, which can transmit the soil moisture data detected by the soil moisture sensor 17 to the control box 11. The output terminal of the soil moisture sensor 17 is connected to the input terminal of the control box 11 through a signal line, and power can be supplied at the same time.
[0032] It should be noted that the soil moisture sensor 17 in this embodiment is specifically a TMO soil moisture sensor.
[0033] It should be noted that the first filter pad 7 and the second filter pad 10 in this embodiment are made of fibrous material.
[0034] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the control box 11, as one of the core components of the entire intelligent irrigation control device, is responsible for the rational distribution of the electrical energy provided by the energy storage component, ensuring that the booster pump 12 and the soil moisture sensor 17 can work stably and reliably. The control box 11 includes a power management module, which can dynamically adjust the power output according to the power demand and working status of the electrical equipment to achieve optimized power distribution. When an electrical device experiences an overload or short circuit, the control box 11 can quickly cut off the power supply to that device to prevent the fault from escalating and protect the safety of the entire system.
[0035] It should be noted that the control box 11 in this embodiment also includes a computing unit such as a microprocessor or a single-chip microcomputer, which is responsible for receiving signals from the soil moisture sensor 17. It can filter, amplify, and perform A / D conversion on the collected signals to extract useful information. Based on the processed signal data, the control box 11 can determine whether the current environmental conditions meet the irrigation conditions and make corresponding decisions to start or stop the booster pump 12.
[0036] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:
[0037] In use, the water collection tank 1, trapezoidal water collection trough 4, and hollow water collection plate 8 are buried underground. The irrigation main pipe is placed near the corn plants, and the support column 3 is installed in a suitable position. When rainwater seeps into the soil, it comes into contact with the trapezoidal water collection trough 4 and hollow water collection plate 8. The rainwater is filtered through the grid plate 6 and the first filter pad 7 inside the trapezoidal water collection trough 4, and flows into the water collection tank 1 through the water collection pipe 5. The rainwater flowing through the hollow water collection plate 8 flows into the water collection tank 1 through the infiltration holes 9 and is filtered through the second filter pad 10 to ensure that the rainwater entering the water collection tank 1 is relatively clean. The soil moisture sensor 17 is buried in the soil near the corn plants. When the soil moisture sensor 17 detects that the soil moisture is lower than the set value, it sends a signal to the control box 11. After receiving the signal, the control box 11 starts the booster pump 12 inside the water collection tank 1. The booster pump 12 pumps the water in the water collection tank 1 to the irrigation main pipe 2 through the water delivery pipe 13. The riser pipe 14 on the irrigation main pipe 2 distributes the water to each sprinkler head 16 to achieve uniform irrigation. The solar panel 23 on the surface of the column 3 converts solar energy into electrical energy and stores it in the energy storage battery 24. The inverter 25 converts the DC power in the energy storage battery 24 into AC power to provide power support for the booster pump 12, control box 11 and other components.
