[0002] In agricultural production, efficient and water-saving precision irrigation technology is of great significance for improving crop yield and quality. Cumin and Saposhnikovia divaricata, as common Chinese medicinal herbs and cash crops, have different water requirements when intercropped. Traditional flood irrigation or uniform irrigation methods not only waste water resources, but also easily lead to local soil over-wetting or drought, affecting the normal growth of crops. Especially in terms of irrigation control in the root zone, existing irrigation equipment often has problems such as complex structure, poor adaptability and low adjustment accuracy, making it difficult to achieve independent and precise water supply for different crop root zones.

[0003] Current irrigation methods for cumin and saposhnikovia divaricata tend to result in excessive water usage, leading to root rot and water waste. Conversely, insufficient water usage hinders root water absorption and prevents precise irrigation. Therefore, addressing the issue of achieving adequate irrigation while minimizing water waste is crucial. To resolve this, the inventor developed a root zone irrigation device for intercropping cumin and saposhnikovia divaricata. Utility Model Content

A first rotating shaft 10 is mounted in the middle of the first motor 9. A synchronous belt 11 is fitted between the first rotating shaft 10 and the second rotating shaft 12. The irrigation section B includes a sliding plate 22, on the top surface of which is fixedly mounted... A first hydraulic cylinder 20 is provided, with a first piston rod 21 mounted on its lower side. A connecting plate 23 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the first piston rod 21. A second hydraulic cylinder 24 is located below the connecting plate 23, with a second piston rod 26 mounted on its lower side. A cover 16 is located below the second hydraulic cylinder 24. Positioning plates 25 are symmetrically installed between the cover 16 and the second hydraulic cylinder 24. A slip ring 19, which is fitted over a sliding plate 22, is mounted on the surface of the positioning plate 25 on the left side. A guide frame 30 is longitudinally mounted on the surface of the cover 16. A connecting ring 32 is fitted on the surface of the guide frame 30. A second helical spring 31 is mounted on the upper end of the connecting ring 32. A crossbar 29 is fixedly installed on the right side of the connecting ring 32. A rotating cylinder 27 is fitted on the right end of the crossbar 29. Insert rods 28 are evenly mounted on the surface of the rotating cylinder 27. A one-way valve 18 is mounted on the left side of the cover 16. A connecting pipe 17 connects the one-way valve 18 and the air pump 2.

[0024] The water tank 1 contains a small box, and a water mist machine is installed inside the water tank 1. The water mist machine is a small water mist machine.

[0025] The support plate 15 is slidably engaged with the slide rod 5, and a nut is fitted over the slide rod 5 at the upper end of the first helical spring 6. The first helical spring 6 is connected to the nut and the support plate 15 respectively.

[0026] Both the first rotating shaft 10 and the second rotating shaft 12 are fitted with synchronous pulleys corresponding to the synchronous belt 11.

[0027] The second piston rod 26 extends into the inside of the cover 16 and is fitted with a rubber piston. The one-way valve 18 is connected to the connecting pipe 17 and the cover 16 respectively.

[0028] The rotating drum 27 is equipped with a shaft, which is fitted inside the crossbar 29. The insert rod 28 is a round rod structure.

[0029] Working principle: The storage section A and the irrigation section B work together. The device is pushed into the soil where cumin and parsnip are planted. First, it performs the insertion operation. By adjusting the nut at the upper end of the second spiral spring 31, the pushing force of the second spiral spring 31 can be adjusted, causing the insertion rod 28 to apply force to the soil. By moving the device, the insertion rod 28 is used to insert holes in the cumin and parsnip planting soil. Simultaneously, by controlling the first hydraulic cylinder 20, the rotating drum 27 can be squeezed, making it easier to insert the insertion rod 28, preparing for subsequent irrigation. During irrigation, water is filled into another tank within the water tank 1. When the water is used up, it can be added. The water mist machine switch inside the water tank 1 is then turned on, which will then mist the water in the water tank 1. Water mist is generated inside the hood 16, and the water mist is introduced into the hood 16 by the air pump 2. The air pump 2 is a special air pump for water mist. When water mist is introduced into the hood 16, the piston that is deep inside the hood 16 can slide under the control of the second hydraulic cylinder 24, pushing the water mist into the insertion hole for sufficient irrigation and reducing water waste. Due to the water mist irrigation method, the root rot is avoided due to excessive irrigation, and irrigation is easier to control. When the piston in the second piston rod 26 slides upward, it can provide suction to accelerate the water mist into the hood 16. When the piston in the second piston rod 26 slides downward, the water mist will not be pushed into the water tank 1 due to the presence of the one-way valve 18. Through the above operation, the irrigation operation of cumin and saposhnikovia can be realized.

[0030] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
