Description

The utility model is used in horticulture and gardening and can be used for radical irrigation of plants grown in greenhouses and greenhouses in subsidiary and summer cottages.

A device for watering plants is known (US Pat. US No. 6901698 dated 06/07/2005), including a reservoir for irrigation liquid, a supply of irrigation liquid, a line connected to the tank through a drain pipe with a locking assembly, adapter hoses connected to the supply line, and porous hoses for immersion in the soil around the roots of each of the irrigated plants, connected to adapter hoses (see basically Fig. 9 of the mentioned patent and description thereto).

This device provides the direction of irrigation fluid from a remote source of fluid directly to the roots of cultivated plants, eliminating the loss of fluid through leaks, drainage and evaporation. However, the supply line for irrigation fluid is made in the form of a garden hose, which has one serious drawback: when laid on the ground with its uneven relief, the hose takes the form of this relief, forming liquid stagnation in its lowlands, leading to its decay and accumulation of deposits, clogging up in the final As a result, the supply line.

The technical result of the utility model described below is to eliminate the aforementioned disadvantage of the known device, namely, to reduce stagnation of the irrigation fluid in the supply line.

To achieve this technical result in a device for watering plants, including a reservoir for irrigation liquid,

irrigation fluid supply line connected to the tank by means of a drain pipe with a locking unit, adapter hoses connected to the supply line, and porous hoses for immersion in the soil around the roots of each watering plant, connected to the adapter hoses, according to this utility model, the pipeline is a basically horizontal pipeline made of a material whose rigidity prevents the pipeline from sagging along its length and is equipped with vertical equal supports separated from each other.

The pipeline can be made type-setting of equal-sized elbows, and supports - in the form of stakes for driving into the soil. The adapter hoses can be connected to the supply line along the lowest line tangent to the pipeline and directed downward from it.

The execution of the supply line of irrigation fluid in the form of a mainly horizontal pipeline and from a material whose rigidity prevents sagging of the pipeline along its length, provides a uniform distribution of fluid in the pipeline and a uniform outflow of this fluid from the pipeline along its entire length, which leads to a decrease in liquid stagnation in highways. Supplying the main pipeline with supports reduces the possibility of sagging of the pipeline over its long length. The vertical support does not create bending stresses at the joints of the supports with the pipeline, which reduces the likelihood of distortions in these joints and, in a critical case, jumps off the pipeline from the supports, thus generally maintaining its horizontalness necessary to achieve the claimed technical result. The implementation of the supports equidistant from each other eliminates sections of the pipeline between two adjacent supports

with a longer length relative to other sections, thereby contributing to the uniform support of horizontal pipeline.

The execution of the pipeline stacked of equal elbows allows you to more accurately maintain the horizontalness of the pipeline over its long length using a single commercial measuring tool, limited in length. For example, if the farm has a level meter with a length of one meter, and a pipeline with a length of five meters, it will be better (when making the pipeline type-setting), if the pipe bend does not differ in length from its other bends and matches the level gauge available for this parameter .

The implementation of supports in the form of stakes for driving into the soil makes it most simple (without the use of telescopic or screw devices) to withstand the required height of the supports above an uneven soil relief to ensure horizontal pipeline.

The connection of the adapter hoses to the supply line along the lowest line tangent to the pipeline and their downward direction from it provides the most complete emptying of the pipeline, in contrast to the known device in which the adapter hoses are horizontal.

The utility model is illustrated by graphic materials on which are shown:

figure 1 is a front view of a device for watering plants,

figure 2 is a left view of the device for watering plants,

figure 3 is a view in longitudinal section on part of the supply of irrigation fluid line with adapter hoses,

figure 4 is a right view of the view of figure 3 in cross section of the highway through the hole for the right adapter hose.

The device for watering plants 1 includes a reservoir 2 for irrigation fluid, the supply of irrigation fluid drowned on

at its left (see FIG. 1) end, a highway 3 connected to the reservoir 2 by means of a drain pipe 4 with a locking unit 5; adapter hoses 6 connected to the supply line 3, and porous hoses 7 for immersion in the soil 8 around the roots 9 of each of the irrigated plants 1, connected to the adapter hoses 6. The supply line 3 is mainly a horizontal pipe made of material, the rigidity of which prevents sagging of the pipeline along its length, for example, from polypropylene with a bending modulus of 1220-1860 MPa and impact strength of 25-40 KJ / m ² . Can also be used, although to a lesser extent because of the high cost, for example, for household plots, structural plastic materials based on commercial grade thermoplastics-copolymers, such as celazole, thoron, ketron with elastic modules, respectively, 5800, 6000, 4400 MPa The supply line 3 is equipped with vertical equidistant from each other supports 10, made in the form of stakes for driving into the soil 8.

The pipeline is made up of equal-sized elbows 11. Hoses-adapters 6, made mainly of polyvinyl chloride tubes, are connected to the supply line 3 by elastic insertion into the corresponding holes of the pipeline, along the lowest line tangent to the pipeline, line 12 and directed downward from the pipeline .

Porous hoses 7 can be made of the same material and of the same shape, only of a smaller diameter as adapter hoses 6, with the same type of connection with adapter hoses as the connections of the latter with the supply line 3. The porosity of the hoses 7 can be achieved with the goal of ease of manufacture and regulation of the amount of fluid supplied to the roots 9 by piercing the hoses 7. Increasing the number of punctures in the hoses 7

thus leads to an increase in the amount of irrigation fluid supplied to the roots of 9 plants 1. In the described case, that is, in the case of the execution of the porous hoses 7 in the form of polyvinyl chloride tubes, the free ends of these tubes are plugged. Dosing of irrigation fluid (water and / or a mixture of water with fertilizers) can also be achieved by pushing the adapter hoses 6 inside the supplying irrigation fluid line 3, for example, as shown in Figs. 3, 4, using oblique sections 13 of the adapter hoses 6. The position of the right adapter hose 6 in Fig. 3 corresponds to the maximum watering of the plant, the position of the left hose corresponds to the less watering corresponding to the amount of irrigation fluid divided by the total number of adapter hoses 6, which will fit in the pipeline from above on level 14, passing through the bottom point of the slice opening 13 of the right (top) of the hose adapter 6-3 (4).

The device operates as follows.

The liquid for irrigation of plants 1 is poured into the tank 2 with a closed shut-off unit 5, which can be in the form of a shutter or shut-off valve, through the pipe 15 from an external suitable source. When the tank 2 is filled with liquid, the liquid supply to the tank is stopped and the shut-off unit 5 is opened. The liquid fills the supply line 3 by gravity. Since the line 3 is made in the form of a basically horizontal pipeline, the irrigation liquid fills the line 3 evenly. During its filling, the soil is first aerated around the roots 9 of plants 1, due to the air displaced from the highway into adapter hoses 6, and from them into the porous hoses 7, under the action of the fluid pressure filling the highway 3. Then along the same path, through the adapter hoses 6, the porous hoses 7 and their pores, the irrigation fluid is delivered, as well as before, to the roots of the 9 irrigated

plants 1. Slowly, depending on the diameter and number of pores of each porous hose 7, the soil is soaked with irrigation fluid around the roots of the plants. By saturating the soil 8 around the porous hoses 7 buried in it with moisture of the irrigation fluid, the pores of these hoses become clogged, and the roots of 9 plants begin to consume moisture from this soil. When the soil dries around the porous hoses, the pores of these hoses are uncorked, thus providing continuous dosed watering of the plants until the fluid is depleted in the supply line 3.

Due to the design described, the device for watering plants, according to this utility model, which reduces stagnation of irrigation fluid in the supply line, is unpretentious to the quality of main water traditionally used for watering plants in subsidiary, summer cottages, rich in excess iron, salt, lime and other clogging components. The device also provides a simple and individual for each watering plant, both the initial (by piercing the required number of pores in the hoses 7, and the subsequent (by pushing the hoses 6 into the pipeline or, conversely, pulling them out of it) dosing of the irrigation fluid.
