Description

Supporter of Sprinkler}

The present invention relates to a sprinkler support for stably supporting sprinklers that scatter and spray agricultural water.

Sprinklers are commonly used to supply agricultural water to crops.

A sprinkler is a device that scatters and sprays water supplied from a pump through a hose.

Water supplied at high pressure by the pump is supplied to the sprinkler through a hose, and the sprinkler scatters and sprays water through the sprinkler head.

At this time, in order to widen the width of the water scattered and sprayed through the sprinkler, the supplied water is pumped at as high a pressure as possible.

Since water is pumped at high pressure like this, the location of the sprinkler is moved or the sprinkler falls down due to the pressure of the water.

Therefore, in order to smoothly supply water to crops, a sprinkler supporter that can stably fix the sprinkler is needed.

In order to solve the above problems, Korea Patent Registration No. 10-1025032 "Support for Sprinklers" (registered on March 18, 2011) and Korea Utility Model Registration No. 20-0372091 "Sprinkler Support Device" (registered on December 24, 2004) A tripod-shaped sprinkler support has been proposed as shown.

Such a conventional sprinkler support has tripod-shaped legs that are simply driven into the ground, so the tripod-shaped legs need to be strongly fixed to the ground.

However, where the sprinkler support is installed, the ground may be uneven or wet, and in this case, if shaking occurs due to strong water pressure, the sprinkler support can easily fall over.

Additionally, when strong winds blow or sprinklers are installed high (increasing the center of gravity), the sprinkler support is more likely to fall due to the unstable center of gravity.

This sprinkler support includes a main fixture 100, a plurality of legs 200, and a water pipe 300.

The main fixture 100 has a water pipe coupling portion 110 formed in the center, and a plurality of brackets 120 for coupling legs (three in this embodiment) are provided on the radial outer side of the water pipe coupling portion 110. .

The water pipe coupling portion 110 is intended to be coupled to the water pipe 300 extending in the vertical direction.

The water pipe coupling portion 110 is hollow so that the water pipe 300 passes through it, and the water pipe fixing bolt 111 is bolted to the water pipe coupling portion 110, thereby forming the water pipe coupling portion 110 by the water pipe fixing bolt 111. The upper end of is compressed and coupled to the water pipe 300 while shrinking inward (see Figures 2 and 3).

Since this coupling structure is a very general method, detailed description is omitted.

The water pipe 300 is provided with a hose connector 310 at its lower end, and the hose 10 through which water is supplied is connected to the hose connector 310 to supply water.

The hose connector 310 is provided with a spike 311 for fixing to the ground at its lower portion.

A sprinkler 20 is coupled to the upper end of the water pipe 300.

Therefore, the water supplied through the hose 10 moves vertically upward through the water pipe 300 and then scatters and sprays from the sprinkler 20.

In this embodiment, the main fixture 100 is provided with three brackets 120 for combining legs. That is, this sprinkler support has a triangular support structure.

Two first coupling holes 121 are formed in each leg coupling bracket 120.

The leg 200 is coupled to each leg coupling bracket 120.

That is, since there are three brackets 120 for combining legs, three legs 200 are provided.

The upper end of the leg 200 is coupled to the leg coupling bracket 120 and the lower end is supported on the ground.

The leg 200 of this embodiment is a leg 200 whose length is adjustable. A wide variety of methods can be applied to adjust the length of the leg 200, and depending on the embodiment, the leg 200 may have a fixed length.

In order to maintain an unstable center of gravity when installing the sprinkler 20 high, it is desirable for the legs 200 to spread and extend their length.

In some cases, the length extension method described in Korean Patent Registration No. 10-1025032 “Support for Sprinklers” (registered on March 18, 2011) may be adopted.

In addition, the leg 200 is inclinedly coupled to the leg coupling bracket 120, and the inclination angle can be adjusted. That is, it is possible to close the legs 200 narrowly or spread them wide.

This is because, when installing the sprinkler 20 high, it is desirable to spread the legs 200 wide, and when installing the sprinkler 20 low, it is desirable to close the legs 200 narrowly.

For this purpose, an inclination angle adjustment bracket 210 is provided at the upper end of the leg 200.

The inclination angle adjustment bracket 210 includes an angle adjustment plate 211, an angle adjustment pin 212 coupled thereto, a spring 213, and a spring support member 214.

The angle adjustment plate 211 is coupled to the leg coupling bracket 120.

Each angle adjustment plate 211 has a central hole 211a and a plurality of edge holes 211b arranged in an arc shape around the central hole 211a.

In this state, the U-shaped angle adjustment pin 212 is coupled to the angle adjustment plate 211 and the leg coupling bracket 120.

The angle adjustment pin 212 forms a U-shape as the long first coupling pin 212a and the short second coupling pin 212b are connected by a connecting bar 212c.

The first coupling pin (212a) is disposed to pass through the central hole (211a) of the angle adjustment plate (211) and one of the first coupling holes (121) of the leg coupling bracket (120).

The second coupling pin 212b is disposed to pass through the edge hole 211b of the angle adjustment plate 211 and the other first coupling hole 121 of the leg coupling bracket 120.

The angle adjustment plate 211 can be coupled to the leg coupling bracket 120 in a different posture by using the first coupling pin 212a and the second coupling pin 212b, thereby allowing the leg 200 to be positioned in a different position. The inclination angle can be adjusted.

A spring 213 and a spring support member 214 are provided at one end of the first coupling pin 212a so that the angle adjustment plate 211 can easily change its posture with respect to the leg coupling bracket 120, in the case of this embodiment. nuts) are further combined.

As a result, the spring 213 can be elastically compressed between the spring support member 214 and the leg coupling bracket 120.

Therefore, when the long first coupling pin (212a) is pressed, the short second coupling pin (212b) is separated from the edge hole (211b) and the first coupling hole (121), and in this separated state, the angle adjustment plate ( When the posture of 211) is changed and the first coupling pin (212a) is released, the first coupling pin (212a) and the second coupling pin (212b) are restored to their original positions by the spring 213 and the second coupling pin (212a) is restored to its original position. The coupling pin (212b) is again coupled to the new edge hole (211b) and the first coupling hole (121).

In this way, it is possible to close the legs 200 narrowly or spread them wide, so the sprinkler support can be stably installed by opening the legs 200 to 20 to 80 degrees depending on the site situation.

In order to stably support the lower end of the leg 200 on the ground, an auxiliary landing pipe 220 is provided at the lower end of the leg 200.

The landing auxiliary pipe 220 extends in the horizontal direction and has a hollow 221 for ground stability formed along the inside.

An auxiliary horizontal support 30, such as a round bar or rod, is inserted into the ground stabilizing hollow 221 to be stably supported on the ground. That is, the ground stabilizing hollow 221 of the landing auxiliary pipe 220 is a hollow for insertion of the auxiliary horizontal support 30.

In other words, the horizontal length of the landing auxiliary pipe 220 is inevitably very limited due to problems such as storage and transportation of the sprinkler support, but the auxiliary horizontal support 30 inserted and penetrated therein can be inserted at the installation site. By adopting a very long length, it is possible to have a structure in which this sprinkler support is very stably supported on the ground.

That is, the top view of this sprinkler support is as shown in FIG. 7, but when the auxiliary horizontal support 30 is installed on the landing auxiliary pipe 220, the top view is as shown in FIG. 8.

Meanwhile, in this embodiment, the landing auxiliary pipe 220 has a cross-sectional shape of the outer peripheral surface of a rectangular shape with 6 to 12 sides. In the case of this embodiment, it is a polygon with six sides, that is, a hexagon, but the shape can be modified in various ways from a hexagon to a dodecagon.

An angle-adjustable spike member 230 may be further coupled to the landing auxiliary pipe 220.

The angle-adjustable spike member 230 consists of an auxiliary pipe coupling pipe 231 and a spike 232 for ground fixation.

The auxiliary pipe coupling pipe 231 is formed with a rectangular hollow into which the landing auxiliary pipe 220 is inserted and fixed.

That is, if the landing auxiliary pipe 220 has a hexagonal shape, the hollow of the auxiliary pipe coupling pipe 231 is formed in a hexagonal shape, preventing rotation of the auxiliary pipe coupling tube 231 with respect to the landing auxiliary pipe 220. You can do it.

The ground fixing spike 232 is provided on the lower side of the auxiliary pipe coupling pipe 231 and is inserted and fixed to the ground.

This rotating spike member 230 is coupled to the landing auxiliary pipe 220 at an appropriate angle so that the ground fixing spike 232 approaches the most stable direction on the ground according to the inclination angle of the leg 200. (See Figure 10).

As a result, the fixing spike 232 can be securely fixed to the ground, and the stability of the sprinkler support is further improved.
