Description

The invention relates to a device for raising water, driven by solar energy, and is intended for watering plants, allows you to provide hidden from the eyes watering of ornamental plants from an open source of water supply and decoration of places of public recreation.

The famous Musho solar pump (see. Internet, search engine Yandex. Pump Musho). This device has a sealed conical vessel extending into a pipe immersed in water. In the lower part of the pipe, a first valve is installed, which allows water to pass up and not to pass down. Above the valve, the pipe is connected to the lateral process, from which the second elbow of the pipe rises, connected with its upper end to the water reservoir. In this elbow, a second valve is installed at the bottom, letting water pass up and not letting it go down. The operation of the device is based on heating the air in a conical vessel by the sun and cooling it when water evaporates, accompanied by expansion and compression of the air, which are used as a pump piston to raise water to a certain height.

The disadvantage of the Musho pump is the use of valves containing rubbing surfaces. This reduces the reliability of its work.

In addition, the Musho pump raises water to a relatively small height - one and a half meters.

In addition, it is impossible to shape the cone-shaped vessel of the Musho pump to create a visual image of the decor element. For this reason, decorative watering of hidden plants is not provided.

In addition, during the process of cooling the air in a cone-shaped vessel, the pressure inside the vessel takes a value below atmospheric. For this reason, the possibility of using a cone-shaped vessel with a thin-walled shell is excluded.

A device for lifting water containing a lifting pipe with a mixer having a duct and a suction pipe (patent US 3694106, publ. 1972).

The disadvantage of this device is the need for forced air supply to the mixer through the use of industrial energy sources.

A device for lifting water (patent RU 2215196, publ. 2003) is known, which in terms of combination of features is the closest analogue of the claimed invention. This device includes a supply and discharge pipes. It contains a sealed vessel that performs the function of a hydropneumatic accumulator, in which the ends of the supply and discharge pipes are located. A slice of the supply pipe is located in the upper part of the vessel. A section of the discharge pipe is located at the bottom of the vessel. Water flows by gravity from the source to the head connected to the supply pipe. The parameters of the head and the supply pipe are selected such that an aerated water flow forms in the pipe, i.e. there was a suction in the air stream of the formed funnel. According to this feature, the head performs the function of a mixer-dispenser. Once in the vessel, the aerated stream of water is divided into water, which settles at the bottom of the vessel, and air, which is located above the water. An opening is made in the wall of the discharge pipe at a height above the cut of the supply pipe. Due to the influx of water and air into the discharge pipe through its lower slice and hole in its wall, the water column in the discharge pipe is divided into alternating portions of water and air, forming a water-air column moved upward by air pressure. According to this feature, the lower cut in the discharge pipe and the hole in its wall perform the function of the second mixer-dispenser.

The reasons that impede the achievement of the technical result indicated below when using this device include the impossibility of using it to raise water from a reservoir in which there is no difference in water levels.

The technical result obtained by the implementation of the claimed invention is to ensure the concealment of watering of ornamental plants, usually grown on small land plots of urban and rural areas intended for recreation (on a flower bed, on an alpine hill, on the shore of a decorative reservoir, on an artificial floating vehicle (floating island), in containers installed at several levels above the free surface of an open source of water supply), giving the air chamber, which is included in a device for lifting water, a form that performs a decorative function (an exquisite, majestic statue in the antique style, a decorative stone, a bright inflatable figure in the form of a fairy tale character or an arbitrary image), and auto-pumping air into the air chamber, which may contain thin-walled rigid (non-inflatable) or air-support (inflatable) casing with low air permeability.

The specified technical result is achieved by the fact that the device for lifting water containing flexible supply and discharge pipelines, a sealed vessel acting as a hydropneumatic accumulator, in which the lower end of the supply pipe and the first end of the discharge pipe are located, and two metering mixers, the first of which is connected to the upper end of the supply pipe and is installed on the water surface of the water supply source, and the second is installed in a sealed vessel with connection to the supercharger according to the invention, it is equipped with an air chamber, which is installed in places exposed to the sun, a flexible air pipe connecting the inlet of the air chamber with the upper part of the cavity of the sealed vessel, a flexible lifting pipe, the upper the end of which is brought to the point of watering the plants with an additional sealed vessel in which the lower end of the lifting pipeline and the second end of the pump are placed a pipeline, while a section of the supply pipe is installed in the lower part of the cavity of the main sealed vessel, in an additional sealed vessel, a section of the riser is installed above the section of the discharge pipe, the discharge pipe is equipped with a plumb section installed above the additional sealed vessel. Each metering mixer contains a pipe of small diameter, a pipe with a large diameter, which is equipped with a sinker, and a float body, in the upper part of which there is a part of a pipe of small diameter, the other two parts of which are unequal in length and protrude outward from opposite sides of the float body. The protruding outward part of the pipe of small diameter is connected to the end of the pipe of larger diameter, the second end of which in the first mixer-dispenser is connected to the upper end of the supply pipe introduced into the lower part of the float housing. A second sinker is installed in the extreme lower part of the float housing of the first mixer-dispenser. In the second metering mixer, the second end of the larger pipe is connected to the end of the discharge pipe introduced into the lower part of the float housing. A sinker is installed in the extreme lower part of the float housing of the second mixer-dispenser.

Compensation of air leakage through the shell of the air chamber is ensured, firstly, by selecting the parameters of the metering mixers such that a flow of alternating portions of water and air is formed in the supply pipe, whose density would be less than the density of the flow of alternating portions of water and air in the discharge pipeline, and secondly, by equipping the second mixer-dispenser with a supporting sinker. When these requirements are met, ballast air is supplied to the main sealed vessel, part of which passes into the air chamber, compensating for air leakage from it, and the other part leaves the main sealed vessel into the atmosphere through a second connected metering batcher, discharge pipe, and an additional sealed vessel and a lifting pipeline.

When using a device for watering plants on the shore of a reservoir, the main sealed vessel is mounted underground, and when using a device for watering plants grown on a floating vehicle, it is buried in the reservoir.

The invention solves the problem of supplying water to one point of irrigation. To supply water to several points, it is necessary to use well-known technical means of dosing and distributing the supplied water flow between irrigation channels or to create artificial slopes along which water will flow by gravity from one irrigation point to another.

The figure shows a diagram of a variant of a device for lifting water mounted on the surface of a reservoir using a floating support.

The device comprises an air chamber 1, made in the form of an inflatable balloon. In this design, the camera 1 can be used as an advertising medium. The chamber 1 is installed on the surface of the reservoir using a floating support 2. A sealed vessel 3 is buried in the reservoir, the upper part of the cavity of which is connected via the flexible air pipe 4 to the entrance to the chamber 1. The device also contains an additional sealed vessel 8 and two metering mixers 5 (I , II). The metering mixer 5 (I) is connected to the upper end of the flexible supply pipe 6 and is installed on the open water surface of the water supply source. The lower end of the pipeline 6 is introduced into the vessel 3 with the slice placed in the lower part of the cavity of the vessel 3, in addition, the dispenser 5 (II) is introduced into the vessel 3 and the first end of the flexible discharge pipe 7, while the dispenser 5 (II) is connected with the pipeline 7. The lower end of the flexible lifting pipe 9, the slice of which is installed in the upper part of the cavity of the vessel 8, and the second end of the pipe 7, the cut of which is installed below the cut of the pipe 9, are introduced into the vessel 8. The pipeline 7 is equipped with a plumb section 10 located above the vessel 8 As cm Faucet dispensers 5 (I, II) can be used devices designed to create a stream of water-air mixture or alternating portions of water and air. For specificity, the figure shows the dispenser 5 (I, II), designed to create flows of alternating portions of water and air. Each mixer-dispenser 5 contains a float housing 11, in the upper part of which a pipe 12 is fixed, the end part 13 of which protrudes outward on one side of the float housing 11, and the end part 14 on the other, while the length of part 14 of pipe 12 exceeds the length of part 13 and a pipe 15, the diameter of which exceeds the diameter of the pipe 12. The pipe 15 is equipped with a sinker 16. The end of the part 14 of the pipe 12 is connected to the first end of the pipe 15. In the metering mixer 5 (I), the second end of the pipe 15 (I) is connected to the upper end of the supply pipe 6 inserted into the bottom of the float core whisker 11 (I). A sinker 17 is installed in the lowermost part of the float housing 11 (I). In the metering mixer 5 (II), the second end of the pipe 15 (II) is connected to the first end of the pipeline 7 introduced into the lower part of the float housing 11 (II), in the lowermost parts of which a sinker is installed 18. The pipes 12 and 15 of each mixer-dispenser 5 function as a two-arm lever swinging above a water surface around a support point located in the upper part of the float body 11. When using the device for watering plants grown in flower pots 19 (I, II, III) with drainage holes 20 and pallets 21 (I, II, III) equipped with openings for drainage of excess water, flower pots 19 (I, II, III) can be installed on a multi-tiered flowerbed, cascading flower stand or multi-stage construction made of stone or concrete. The upper end of the pipeline 9 is fixed in the pallet 21 (I) of the flower pot 19 (I), located on the upper step of the multi-stage structure. To create a waterway path from the pallet 21 (I) to the subsequent pallet 21 (II), placed one step below, and so on through all the trays 21 (I, II, III), pipelines 22 (I, II, III) are used.

To enable the device in operation, it is necessary to dip the mixer-dispenser 5 (I) into the reservoir, which will lead to the entry of water into the pipe 12 (I) and then through the pipe 15 (I) and pipeline 6 into the vessel 3. Then the mixer-dispenser 5 (I ) return to the surface of the reservoir. Due to the filling of the pipes 12 (I) and 15 (I) with water, an increase in the force of gravity acting on the end part 14 (I) of the pipe 12 (I) and the pipe 15 (I), as a result of which the pipes 12 (I) and 15 ( I) they will turn around the fulcrum with the end part 13 (I) of the pipe 12 (I) coming out of the water and the upper part of the pipe 6 elastic bending. Continuing to flow into the vessel 3, the water draws air from the pipes 12 (I) and 15 (I) atmosphere, which leads to a decrease in the force of gravity acting on the end part 14 (I) of the pipe 12 (I) and the pipe 15 (I), as a result of which the pipes 12 (I) and 15 (I) will rotate around the fulcrum with the inlet of the cut water to the end part 13 (I) of the pipe 12 (I) and the elastic bending of the upper part of the pipe 6 in the opposite direction. By alternately sucking into the slice of the end part 13 (I) of the pipe 12 (I) water from the reservoir and air from the atmosphere, a stream of alternating portions of water and air is supplied to the vessel 3. If it is necessary to reduce (increase) the density of this stream, it is necessary to increase (decrease) ) the weight of the sinker 16 (I) and / or move the sinker 16 (I) to the first end of the pipe 15 (I) (move the sinker 16 (I) to the second end of the pipe 15 (I)). To reduce (increase) the swing angle of the pipes 12 (I) and 15 (I) around the support point, it is necessary to increase (decrease) the weight of the sinker 17. Once in vessel 3, the stream consisting of portions of water and air is divided into water, which settles below vessel 3, and air, which is located above the water. Then, air is pumped into the air chamber 1 (if the chamber 1 contains an air support shell). The pressure in the chamber 1 and the vessel 3 communicating with the chamber 1 rises, as a result of which alternating portions of water and air are pumped into the section of the end part 13 (II) of the pipe 12 (II) of the dispenser 5 (II) located in the vessel 3 on the water surface which, falling through the pipe 7 into the vessel 8, are separated into water filling the cavity of the vessel 8 to the installation level of the cut of the lifting pipe 9, and air, which through the pipe 9 enters the atmosphere. From this moment in the pipeline 9 alternating portions of water begin to be pumped, which pour into the pan 21 (I) of the flower pot 19 (I), and portions of air that enter the atmosphere. The increased air pressure in the vessel 3 leads to the formation of a water plug in the supply pipe 6, due to which the outflow of water from the vessel 3 through the pipe 6 does not occur. The injection of air into the air chamber 1 is completed when the water level in the vessel 3 drops to a level at which the sinker-support 18 of the mixer-dispenser 5 (II) abuts against the bottom of the vessel 3. From this moment, the immersion of the cut of the end part 13 (II) of the pipe 12 (II) into the water and the discharge of water into the pan 21 (I) of the flower pot 19 (I) ceases. The operation of the mixer-dispenser 5 (II) on the surface of the water in the vessel 3 does not fundamentally differ from the above-described operation of the mixer-dispenser 5 (I) on the surface of the reservoir. To prevent the accumulation of ballast water in the vessel 3 and to provide automatic compensation for air leakage through the shell of the chamber 1, it is sufficient to install a sinker 16 (II) of a significantly smaller weight 16 (I) on the pipe 15 (II) and / or to move the sinker 16 (II) to the second end of pipe 15 (II).

The device operates as follows. The heat exchange of the air chamber 1 with the environment leads to a decrease in temperature inside the chamber 1 at night and increase during the day. At night, the air cooling in the chamber 1 is compressed, sucking air from the vessel 3, as a result of which a cycle of suction of alternating portions of water and air into each other of the end part 13 (I) of the pipe 12 (I) of the metering mixer 5 (I) takes place flowing from the metering mixer 5 (I) into the vessel 3 through the pipeline 6. Once in the vessel 3, alternating portions of water and air are separated into water, which settles at the bottom of the vessel 3, and air, which is located above the water. Under the action of the reduced pressure arising in the vessel 3, the water stored in the vessel 8 is sucked into the plumb section 10 of the pipeline 7, as a result of which a water plug is created due to which no atmospheric air penetrates into the vessel 3 through the pipeline 7. In the daytime, the chamber 1 heats up, the air expands in it, the pressure in the chamber 1 and in the vessel 3 rises, a water plug forms in the supply pipe 6, due to which water does not flow out of the vessel 3 through the pipe 6, into the cut of the end part 13 ( II) the pipes 12 (II) of the metering mixer 5 (II) receive alternating portions of water and air, which flow through the pipe 7 into the vessel 8. Once in the vessel 8, the alternating portions of water and air are divided into water, filling the cavity of the vessel 8 to the level installation of a cut of the lower end of the pipe rovoda 9, and the air that exits through conduit 9 to the atmosphere. From this moment, alternating portions of water, which pour into the pan 21 (I), and portions of air, which enter the atmosphere, begin to be pumped into the pipeline 9. When the water level in the vessel 3 drops to a value at which the sinker-support 18 of the mixer-dispenser 5 (II) abuts against the bottom of the vessel 3, the discharge of water into the pan 21 (I) will stop. The receipt of alternating portions of water and air in the vessel 3 at night and the discharge of water accumulated in the vessel 3 into the tray 21 (I) of the flower pot 19 (I) in the daytime is automatically repeated, while the pressure in the vessel 3 and day and night air chamber 1 takes a value above atmospheric.

A test of an experimental device was performed. The test results confirm the possibility of implementing the claimed invention, achieving the specified technical result and solving the problem.
