Water recycling system for sprinklers

摘要

A recycling sprinkler system incorporates at least one collection vessel assembly for runoff water, as well as a pump module for recycling a substantial portion of the collected runoff water back into an irrigation sprinkler system along with the primary water source for the irrigation sprinkler system, so that the amount of water required from the primary water source is reduced and a substantial portion of the runoff water is prevented from being discarded.

主权项

1. A pump module comprising:
means for inputting a first water; said first water inputting means incorporating a unidirectional flow valve to prevent reverse water flow into source of said first water; means for inputting at least one second water; said second water inputting means incorporating at least one automatic valve to modulate flow of said inputting of said at least one second water; first activating means for activating said at least one automatic valve; communicating means for communicating first external control signals to said first activating means; means for pumping said at least one second water; means for combining said first water and pumped said at least one second water; means for outputting one, the other, or both of said first water and said pumped said at least one second water; second activating means for activating said pumping means; and sensing means for detecting flow of said first water and communicating second external control signals to said second activating means; wherein said first and second activating means act together to coordinate activation of said at least one automatic valve and said pumping means.
