Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of branch pipe fixing devices, specifically a portable agricultural drip irrigation branch pipe fixing device that is easy to assemble and disassemble. Background Technology

[0002] Drip irrigation technology, as a highly efficient water-saving irrigation method, has been widely used in agricultural production such as field crops and greenhouses. A drip irrigation system typically consists of a main pipe, branch pipes, and drip tape (or drippers), with the branch pipes playing a crucial role in evenly distributing water to each drip tape. When setting up the system in the field, to ensure uniform irrigation and prevent the branch pipes from shifting, twisting, or becoming suspended due to water pressure, wind, or human factors, they must be stably fixed to the ground using fixing devices.

[0003] In existing technologies, fixed drip irrigation branch pipes mostly use rigid metal or plastic stakes directly inserted into the ground, with the branch pipes secured to the stakes by straps or clips. While this type of fixing device is simple in structure, it has significant drawbacks: First, it is inefficient to install and dismantle. Installation requires hammering each stake into hard soil, and dismantling requires laborious pulling, especially in large-scale farmland, resulting in high workload and long processing time. Second, it lacks portability. The rigid stakes are fixed in size and cannot be folded, taking up considerable space when carried and stored in large quantities, causing inconvenience for transportation and relocation to different fields. Third, it has limited adaptability; the fixed structure makes it difficult to flexibly adjust the height and clamping angle to accommodate branch pipes of different diameters or uneven terrain. Furthermore, the stakes are prone to loosening after repeated installation and dismantling, reducing the reliability of the fixation.

[0004] Therefore, the existing branch pipe fixing devices are difficult to meet the needs of modern agriculture for simplified, efficient and flexible equipment. There is an urgent need for a new type of fixing device that can be quickly disassembled, is easy to carry and is highly adaptable. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a portable agricultural drip irrigation branch pipe fixing device that is easy to assemble and disassemble, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A portable, easily detachable drip irrigation branch pipe fixing device for farmland includes a storage box. The front of the storage box has a door, and the top has a handle. Several first clamping plates are installed on the lower rear inner wall of the storage box's interior cavity. A lifting rod assembly is clamped within each of the first clamping plates. The lifting rod assembly includes a cylindrical body and an adjusting rod that is inserted and connected to the upper part of the cylindrical body. A fixing component is detachably installed at the top of the adjusting rod. The lifting rod assembly is used to adjust the height of the fixing component, and the fixing component is used to fix the drip irrigation branch pipe. The lower outer wall of the cylindrical body is rotated via a connecting plate. The storage box is connected by several circumferentially evenly distributed reinforcing plates. The top of each reinforcing plate has a vertical hole. Several hooks are installed on the upper rear inner wall of the inner cavity of the storage box. Each hook is equipped with a grounding rod. The top of each grounding rod is connected to a handle. The diameter of the grounding rod is the same as the inner diameter of the vertical hole. The bottom of the cylinder is connected to a base plate. The outer dimensions of the base plate correspond to the inner dimensions of the first clamping plate. A second clamping plate is installed above the first clamping plate. The rear wall of the second clamping plate is installed on the rear inner wall of the storage box. The overall outer dimensions of the reinforcing plates when erected correspond to the inner dimensions of the second clamping plate.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a pin is inserted and fitted into the top side wall of the cylinder, and a number of positioning holes are provided at equal intervals along the vertical direction on the side of the adjusting rod, and one end of the pin is inserted into the corresponding positioning hole.

[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the fixing component includes a lower semicircular annular plate and an upper semicircular annular plate, one end of the lower semicircular annular plate is rotatably connected to one end of the upper semicircular annular plate through a connecting shaft, and the other end of the lower semicircular annular plate is connected to the other end of the upper semicircular annular plate through bolts.

[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the bottom of the lower semi-circular annular plate is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting base, the top of the adjusting rod is connected to a top plate, the top plate is embedded in the bottom groove of the mounting base, and the side of the mounting base is connected to the outer wall of the top plate by bolts.

[0011] As a further improvement of this utility model: a support leg is installed at the bottom corner of the storage box, a first grid plate is provided at the center of the bottom of the storage box, and a second grid plate is installed on the box door.

[0012] This utility model has the following advantages: The device modularly integrates core components such as the lifting rod assembly and the ground-inserting rod into a storage box equipped with a handle, achieving centralized storage and convenient transportation of all parts. This fundamentally overcomes the problems of traditional rigid piles being inconvenient to carry and occupying large spaces, greatly improving the portability of the device when moving between different fields. Regarding assembly and disassembly efficiency, the lifting rod assembly adopts a plug-in structure of the cylinder and the adjusting rod, allowing for quick assembly and height adjustment. The detachable connection between the fixing component and the top of the adjusting rod further simplifies operation. By rotating the connecting plate to flatten the reinforcing plate and inserting the separately stored ground-inserting rod into the vertical hole of the reinforcing plate to anchor it to the ground, stable support can be achieved without strenuous hammering. Disassembly simply requires pulling out the ground-inserting rod to easily retrieve the entire device, significantly reducing labor intensity and time costs. In addition, the height adjustability of the adjusting rod allows the fixing components to flexibly adapt to different terrains and branch pipe laying height requirements, while the synergistic effect of the chassis and reinforcement plate ensures the adaptability of the device on soft or uneven ground and its wind pressure resistance stability, effectively preventing branch pipe displacement. The overall device is easy to operate, flexible and highly stable, and has greater practicality. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0023] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1 to 4A portable, easily detachable drip irrigation branch pipe fixing device for farmland includes a storage box 1. The front end of the storage box 1 has a door 3, and the top end has a handle 2. Several first clamping plates 7 are installed on the lower rear inner wall of the inner cavity of the storage box 1. A lifting rod assembly 10 is clamped within each of the first clamping plates 7. The lifting rod assembly 10 includes a cylinder 13 and an adjusting rod 18 that is inserted and connected to the upper part of the cylinder 13. A fixing component 11 is detachably installed at the top end of the adjusting rod 18. The lifting rod assembly 10 is used to adjust the height of the fixing component 11, which is used to fix the drip irrigation branch pipe. Several circumferentially evenly distributed reinforcing plates 16 are rotatably connected to the lower outer wall of the cylinder 13 via a connecting plate 15. Vertical holes 17 are provided at the top ends of the reinforcing plates 16. Several hooks 9 are installed on the upper rear inner wall of the inner cavity. A ground-inserting rod 12 is installed on each hook 9. A handle 27 is connected to the top of the ground-inserting rod 12. The diameter of the ground-inserting rod 12 is the same as the inner diameter of the vertical hole 17. A base plate 14 is connected to the bottom of the cylinder 13. The outer dimensions of the base plate 14 correspond to the inner dimensions of the first clamping plate 7. A second clamping plate 8 is provided above the first clamping plate 7. The rear wall of the second clamping plate 8 is installed on the rear inner wall of the storage box 1. The overall outer dimensions of the several reinforcing plates 16 after they are erected correspond to the inner dimensions of the second clamping plate 8. The second clamping plate 8 is used to keep the reinforcing plates 16 upright and prevent them from spreading out. After the base plate 14 is placed on the ground, the reinforcing plates 16 are laid flat. Then the ground-inserting rod 12 is inserted into the vertical hole 17. The lower part of the ground-inserting rod 12 is inserted into the ground to reinforce the lifting rod assembly 10.

[0024] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5The top side wall of the cylinder 13 is fitted with a pin 19. The side of the adjusting rod 18 has several positioning holes 20 evenly spaced along the vertical direction. One end of the pin 19 can be inserted into the corresponding positioning hole 20. The fixing assembly 11 includes a lower semi-circular annular plate 24 and an upper semi-circular annular plate 26. The inner dimensions of both the lower and upper semi-circular annular plates 24 and 26 correspond to the outer dimensions of the drip irrigation branch pipe. One end of the lower semi-circular annular plate 24... The lower semicircular annular plate 24 is rotatably connected to one end of the upper semicircular annular plate 26 via a connecting shaft 25. The other end of the lower semicircular annular plate 24 is connected to the other end of the upper semicircular annular plate 26 via bolts. A spring 21 is fitted onto the portion of the pin 19 outside the cylinder 13. One end of the spring 21 abuts against the boss or retaining ring of the pin 19, and the other end abuts against a support or sleeve fixed to the outer wall of the cylinder 13. The spring force of the spring 21 causes the pin 19 to tend to return to its original position inside the cylinder 13. The bottom of the lower semicircular annular plate 24 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting base 23. The top end of the adjusting rod 18 is connected to a top plate 22, which is embedded in the bottom groove of the mounting base 23. The side of the mounting base 23 is connected to the outer wall of the top plate 22 via bolts.

[0025] Example 2: See Figure 1 Based on Embodiment 1, a support leg 4 is installed at the bottom corner of the storage box 1, a first mesh plate 5 is provided at the center of the bottom of the storage box 1, and a second mesh plate 6 is installed on the box door 3. After the box door 3 is closed, the components inside the storage box 1 can be rinsed directly through the second mesh plate 6. After the storage box 1 is raised by the support leg 4, the wastewater and sludge are discharged outward through the first mesh plate 5.

[0026] The main load-bearing and ground-contacting components, such as the cylinder 13, adjusting rod 18, ground-inserting rod 12, and reinforcing plate 16, can be made of galvanized steel pipe, aluminum alloy, or stainless steel, and undergo surface anti-rust treatment (such as powder coating or baking paint) to enhance their corrosion resistance and adapt to the harsh farmland environment.

[0027] The inner walls of the lower semicircular annular plate 24 and the upper semicircular annular plate 26 can be adhered with elastic rubber pads (not shown in the figure), which can increase friction to prevent the branch pipe from sliding, and can also adapt to the branch pipe diameter within a certain range through elastic deformation, thus enhancing versatility. In addition, various fixing components 11 with different inner diameters can be provided for selection to accommodate drip irrigation branch pipes of different specifications.

[0028] Working principle: When not in use, all components are modularly stored in the storage box 1. The base 14 of the lifting rod assembly 10 is clamped in the first clamping plate 7, and the reinforcing plate 16 is rotated upwards and retracted so that its overall outer dimensions match the inner dimensions of the second clamping plate 8. It is restrained by the second clamping plate 8 to maintain an upright position and prevent the contents of the box from being scattered. The ground rod 12 is suspended on the hook 9 at the top of the box. The user can easily move the entire storage box 1 to the field operation point using the handle 2. After reaching the designated position, open the box door 3, take out the lifting rod assembly 10, place the base 14 at the bottom of the cylinder 13 at the predetermined position on the ground, and then insert the adjusting rod 18 into the upper part of the cylinder 13. According to the preset height of the drip irrigation branch pipe, pull the adjusting rod 18 up and down to the appropriate position. At this time, a certain positioning hole 20 on the side of the adjusting rod 18 will be aligned with the hole of the mounting pin 19 on the top of the cylinder 13. Under the reset action of the spring 21, the pin 19 will automatically spring into the corresponding positioning hole 20, thereby quickly locking the extension height of the adjusting rod 18 and completing the stepless adjustment of the support height. After height adjustment, the fixing component 11 is installed on the top of the adjusting rod 18. Specifically, the top plate 22 at the top of the adjusting rod 18 is embedded into the groove at the bottom of the mounting base 23 and secured with side bolts. When fixing the drip irrigation branch pipe, loosen the connecting bolts between the upper semi-circular annular plate 26 and the lower semi-circular annular plate 24, place the branch pipe into the groove of the lower semi-circular annular plate 24, then close the upper semi-circular annular plate 26 and tighten the bolts to complete the clamp-type fixation of the branch pipe. After completing the above steps, lay the several reinforcing plates 16 rotatably connected to the lower part of the cylinder 13 flat from the retracted state, so that they are laid out radially on the ground. Then, take out the ground-inserting rod 12 from the storage box 1, align its tip with the vertical hole 17 at the top of any reinforcing plate 16, and apply pressure using the handle 27 to make the ground-inserting rod 12 pass through the vertical hole 17 and insert it deep into the ground. This operation is equivalent to adding multiple oblique ground anchors to the main support rod, greatly enhancing the pull-out resistance and stability of the entire device on soft soil. After use, the disassembly process is the reverse of the installation process. Before storing the device in the storage box 1, the box door 3 can be closed, and the internal components (such as the chassis 14 with soil adhering to it, the ground rod 12, etc.) can be rinsed directly with clean water through the second grid plate 6 on the box door 3. The wastewater and sludge after rinsing are discharged through the first grid plate 5 at the bottom of the box in the space formed by the support legs 4, which makes it easy to complete the initial cleaning in the field, keep the inside of the box clean, and extend the life of the components.
