MULTI-SECTION CIRCULAR SPRINKLING MACHINE WITH SMART MODULE Russian patent published in 2021 - IPC A01G25/09 

FIELD: agriculture.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the field of agriculture; it can be used for irrigation of crops by sprinkling. A multi-section circular sprinkling machine contains a central fixed support with a rotary knee, sprinkling nozzles placed on sequentially connected pipeline sections, each of which is made in the form of a three-dimensional truss. One end of the pipeline section is placed on an intermediate self-propelled support trolley, and the second end is connected to the previous pipeline section by means of a cardan-type hinge joint. A control board is installed on the central fixed support, which houses protective equipment, a control panel, a smart module designed for information processing and decision-making of the control of the irrigation process, machine movement, processing and storage of information and a GLONASS/GPS receiver, and a GLONASS/GPS tracker is installed on the extreme self-propelled support trolley, information from which, when a given sector of an irrigation circle site and weather station pass through a GLONASS satellite, is sent to the GLONASS receiver and then to the smart module. An irrigation rate is adjusted according to the expression: $$$ , where i is a site number from a reference point or a park position of the machine, i=1,2...n; n is the total number of partitioning sites; Q_M is machine consumption, l/s; V_AV is the average speed of the machine; ℓ_SEC is a sector arc length, m; E is the total water consumption equal to the intensity of water consumption, mm;

$$$ , where K_DAY is a time factor; s is a path that the last trolley passes.

EFFECT: sprinkling machine provides an increase in the uniformity and quality of irrigation.
