DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0019] The present disclosure will be described further in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, but the protection scope of the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0020] As shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 2, and FIG. 3, an embodiment provides a pressure self-controlled irrigation and pesticide application sprinkler for a micro-irrigation system, which includes a sprinkler body 1, a sprinkler cap 10, and a spring sleeve 7. As shown in FIG. 1, the sprinkler body 1 is a multi-stage hollow cylindrical structure. A bottom end of the sprinkler body 1 is connected to a water pipe 13 through a thread. A water flow in the water pipe 13 enters an inner cavity of the sprinkler body 1 through cylindrical flow passages 18. Flow guide holes 2 are provided on a sidewall of the sprinkler body 1. Symmetrical arc-shaped flow passages 8 are provided on an outer shell of the sprinkler body 1. An engagement recess is provided in the sprinkler body 1 to form a sliding pair with a protrusion 12 on an outer wall of the spring sleeve 7. As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, a bottom end of the sprinkler cap 10 is provided with a thread 9 connected to the sprinkler body 1, and a cylindrical rotary acceleration chamber 5 and a spring cavity 19 are provided in the sprinkler cap 10. As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 4, an upper end of the sprinkler cap 10 is provided with a spraying nozzle 4. As shown in FIG. 5, flow guide grooves 15 are provided on a bottom surface of the sprinkler cap 10, and a connecting rod movable hole 16 is provided inside the sprinkler cap 10. As shown in FIG. 2, FIG. 3, FIG. 4, and FIG. 6, the spring sleeve 7 is connected to the sprinkler body 1 through engagement of the engagement recess and the protrusion 12. The spring sleeve 7 is provided with a spring washer 3. The spring washer 3 is located on a connecting rod 17 in the spring sleeve. The spring sleeve moves up and down together with the spring washer 3. The spring sleeve 7 is connected to the sprinkler cap 10 through engagement of the connecting rod 17 and the connecting rod movable hole 16. The spring sleeve 7 is provided with symmetrical through holes 14. A diameter of each of the circular holes is equal to a width of the arc-shaped flow passage 8 of the sprinkler body. A compressible spring 6 is arranged in the spring washer 3 and the sprinkler cap 10.

[0021] As shown in FIG. 2, when the present disclosure operates in a water spraying mode under a low-pressure condition (higher than 100 kPa and lower than 200 kPa), water flows into the sprinkler body 1. In this case, a pressure exerted by the water on the spring washer 3 is less than an elastic force of the compressible spring 6, and the water flows out of the flow guide holes 2 through the arc-shaped flow passages 8, hits the deflection surface 11, and is then ejected from two sides of the deflection surface in the form of an arc-shaped thin water layer to irrigate the roots of crops. As shown in FIG. 3, when the present disclosure operates in a mist spraying mode under a medium-pressure condition (higher than 200 kPa and lower than 500 kPa), water flows into the sprinkler body 1. In this case, the pressure exerted by the water on the spring washer 3 is greater than the elastic force of the compressible spring 6, and the compressible spring 6 is compressed. The spring washer 3 drives, through the cross-shaped connecting rod 17, the entire sleeve 7 to move upward and block the arc-shaped flow passages 8. The water is sprayed from the spraying nozzle 4 through the rotary acceleration chamber 5 to the leaves of crops. When the water pressure is reduced, the compressible spring 6 pushes the spring washer 3 back to the state shown in FIG. 3.

[0022] The above description is a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure, and the present disclosure is not limited to the above embodiment. Any modification, replacement, or modification made to the shape, structure, and features in the claims of the present disclosure without departing from the essence of the present disclosure falls within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
