Definitions
- the invention relates to an arrangement for irrigation control with electronics arranged in a control housing.
- Arrangements for irrigation control with electronics arranged in a control housing are known per se and are sometimes also referred to as irrigation computers.
- a valve unit which contains a bistable solenoid valve, control electronics, an accumulator and a timer in a housing.
- a solar module can be placed on the housing and can be electrically connected to the battery for charging it via a contact socket inserted into the housing wall.
- the valve unit cannot be operated by a user during the charging process.
- the contact socket can become dirty after prolonged use.
- DE 94 17 912 U1 shows a device for automatic plant irrigation, in which a control unit is arranged on a faucet, the integrated accumulator of which can be charged by a solar panel which is spaced apart from the control unit and connected to it by a cable.
- a valve included in the control unit is operated using an adjustable pulse timer of the control unit. Using an exposed cable carries the risk of damage.
- DE 94 01 805 U1 describes a device for automatic irrigation controlled by solar energy, in particular roof gardens, in which inside a control and irrigation shaft an adjustable electronic control unit, a moisture sensor and a solenoid valve are arranged.
- a solar cell arrangement is provided on the cover of the inspection and irrigation shaft to supply the modules arranged in the shaft with electrical energy.
- a solar-powered device for watering flower pots which consists of a water container with a closure cap that can be removed from the pot to be watered, and a control unit with a solar cell.
- a valve provided at the lower end of the water tank releases the outflow as required. Irrigation from a water pipe is not intended.
- the invention has for its object to form an irrigation control of the type mentioned as simple but safe.
- the solar cell arrangement With the integration of the solar cell arrangement in the control housing, which advantageously contains the control electronics, a valve controlled by this and an electrical accumulator and also the operating arrangement in a manner known per se, this results in a particularly compact and by eliminating an electrical clamp or plug connection Connection of a separate solar module arrangement that is not susceptible to faults, which is particularly important due to the fact that spray water is to be taken into account in the irrigation control system.
- the solar cell arrangement is advantageously provided in a housing surface inclined to the horizontal, which is preferably part of a fixed projection arranged on the control housing.
- the operating device provided in the housing surface e.g. a knob, a keypad, etc. may be provided in an offset portion of the housing surface.
- a pivotable housing cover which, however, permanently forms part of the control housing, can be provided to cover the operating device, which can be swung open about a swivel joint to access the operating device and carries the solar cell arrangement on its surface facing outward when the operating device is covered.
- the solar cell arrangement can be connected to the electrical parts inside the control housing via the swivel joint. Exposed cables are also avoided in this way.
- the control electronics are advantageously designed such that they have a current consumption of less than 20 ⁇ A without taking into account the actuation of the valve.
- Fig. 1 shows a first embodiment in side view
- FIG. 2 shows the arrangement of FIG. 1 in plan view
- Fig. 3 shows a second embodiment in side view.
- Fig. 4 shows an embodiment with a window recess in a housing cover.
- a water flow path leads from an input Connection 1 via a valve arrangement 2 to an output connection
- the input and output connections are part of a control housing
- control housing 4 which is designed essentially as a straight flow channel 5 with the valve arrangement and with a projection 6 projecting laterally therefrom.
- the control housing 4 contains control electronics 13 for controlling the valve arrangement 2 in accordance with stored user specifications and an electrical accumulator 12.
- a solar cell arrangement 11 is integrated in a housing surface 10 inclined to the horizontal and is permanently connected to the control housing 4.
- the battery 12 and the control electronics 13 are supplied with electrical energy from the solar cell arrangement 11, which can be inserted in a recess or an opening of a housing, possibly with the interposition of a charge control circuit.
- the solar cell arrangement 11 can be covered by a radiation-transmissive plate.
- an operating device with a display 14 and / or operating elements 15 such as e.g. Knob, button, etc.
- the operating device can be covered, wherein in the sketched example a housing cover 19 used for covering, in particular pivotable, preferably encloses the entire housing surface 10 and has a recess or a radiation-permeable window 17 above the solar cell arrangement 11.
- a housing cover 19 used for covering, in particular pivotable, preferably encloses the entire housing surface 10 and has a recess or a radiation-permeable window 17 above the solar cell arrangement 11.
- an operating device is arranged in a housing surface 10 ' , which is arranged around a hinge by a
- pivotable housing cover 19 can be covered.
- a solar cell arrangement 11 ' is provided, which is electrically connected to the accumulator 12 and the control electronics 13 ' via the joint 18.
- the solar cell arrangement 11 ′ can in turn lie in a recess or a recess in the housing cover 19.
- the housing cover 19 can be pivoted about the joint 18 in the direction of the arrow 20, so that the operating device is accessible to a user.
- the housing cover 19 is a permanent component of the control housing 4 ' , so that the electrical connection between the solar cell arrangement 11 ' and the assemblies inside the control housing 4 'can take place without the interposition of a contact lying in the housing wall or outside the housing.
