JP2005006665A - Simple water feeder of double tube - Google Patents

Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a simple water feeder intermittently supplementing evaporation and consumption, capable of easily installed and treatable by simplifying mechanisms, wherein an easily accessible plastic bottle B and the like are used as a reservoir. <P>SOLUTION: The water feeder comprises an integrated siphon pipe C of a double tube obtained by inserting a water pipe D into a suction pipe E and has both of air intake and water supply functions so that connection is simplified, and, by siphon system water supply, feed water flows in upper side of a water reserver and installation condition of water reservoir and handling are simplified thereby. Water supply is performed by pressing the body of a plastic bottle B only at starting to flow reserved water to the water receiver side F, and thereafter, water level, upper or lower, of an air suction hole E1 of the tip of the siphon pipe C makes air suction/stop to control water supply thereby. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI

Description

The present invention relates to an intermittent simple water supply device using a siphon system using a double pipe for potted plants and the like.

There has been no siphon-type simple water supply that uses a double pipe that integrates intake and water supply.

The water supply amount of a general continuous water supply type simplified water supply device is determined by the water level on the water storage container side, the size of the water supply hole, adjustment of air suction (for example, see Patent Document 1), etc. It is not related to the required amount of water, so there is a risk of excess or deficiency in water supply.

In general, when a plastic bottle or the like is used because water flows out from the lower side of the water storage container, it is installed in an upside-down state, so that it is not stable and requires installation conditions and fixtures (for example, see Patent Document 2). .

Although there are things that are installed in an upright state with the opening facing upward, a water feeder with a water-absorbing string in which the amount of water supply varies depending on the complicated electric type of the mechanism and the water level compared to the present plan (see, for example, Utility Model Document 1). ).

Problems to be solved by the invention

In the continuous dripping type simple water dispenser, the adjustment of the water supply amount is determined by the conditions on the storage container side, so it does not match the required amount of water supply that changes depending on conditions such as sunlight and humidity on the potted plant side. Excess or deficiency of water supply occurs

In a conventional water dispenser that uses a plastic bottle or the like as a water storage container, the water stored inside the container flows downward and is supplied with water, so the opening is installed in an upside down position. As measures such as these are taken, there are difficulties in handling.

Means for solving the problem

A double pipe integrated by inserting a water supply pipe inside the intake pipe is used as a siphon pipe, and the water level at the tip of the intake pipe portion of the siphon pipe of the water receiving tray connected to the opening of the water storage container and the water receiving tray Supplying only the reduced amount of water on the receiving side by sucking and pausing air.

Since the water is supplied directly from the water storage container using the siphon method, the water flows upward in the container, so that it can be installed in a normal standing state with the opening facing upward, so that fixtures, installation conditions and handling are easy.

The invention's effect

As described above, by adopting a siphon system that uses a double pipe for intake and water supply as a simple water supply, integration of the intake pipe and water supply pipe, water supply control on the water receiving side, and storage of water such as plastic bottles The installation state of the container in a normal standing state is simplified, and the installation conditions and handling are easy.

As mentioned above, because the configuration is simplified and the installation conditions and handling are easy, it is highly adaptable to water bottles such as plastic bottles, commercially available flower pots, and water pans that are easily available. Can be extended.

Although this invention is demonstrated as a simple water supply device of a potted plant, it can be used as a simple water supply device such as a water supply for a humidifier or a temporary water supply for pets and hand-washing.

As shown in FIG. 1, a siphon pipe C having a water supply pipe D on the inside and an intake pipe E on the outside is connected to a plastic bottle B of a water storage container and a water receiving tray G on the water receiving side F.

Only for the first water supply, the body part of the above-mentioned full-filled plastic bottle B is pressed by hand to supply water to the water receiving tray G. When the air suction port E1 rises and the air suction port E1 is submerged, the air suction stops and the water supply by the siphon phenomenon stops, and the state shown in FIG. 2 is obtained.

As shown in FIG. 2, after the water supply is stopped, the water level on the water receiving side F decreases due to evaporation or consumption with the passage of time, and the air suction port E1 comes out on the water. The air suction is resumed, and the water supply by the siphon phenomenon is resumed.

Since the water bottle is installed in a normal standing state, it can be decorated with pebbles or underwater flowers to prevent falling.

It is the whole water supply state schematic, and shows the suction of air at the time of water supply and the replenishment state of water. It is a state diagram of water supply stop, and shows the stop due to submergence of the air suction port E1 on the water receiving side.

Explanation of symbols

A = Water supply side B = Plastic bottle C = Suction pipe D = Water supply pipe D1 = Water supply outlet E = Air intake pipe E1 = Air suction port F = Water receiving side G = Water receiving tray H = Flower pot

Claims (3)

By adopting a double pipe with a water supply pipe inserted inside the intake pipe, an integrated siphon pipe having both intake and water supply functions was obtained. A water supply apparatus, wherein water supply is controlled by suctioning / stopping air that occurs above and below a water level at an air suction port at a tip end attached to a water receiving side of the siphon pipe that is the double pipe. By using the double pipe as a siphon pipe, the water storage container can supply water in an upright state with the opening facing up, so that the installation position and handling are easy, and the PET bottle as a water storage container is normally raised. A watering device characterized in that it can be used in a state.
