As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the plurality of adapters 11 are evenly spaced and mounted at the frame 901. In one embodiment, the plurality of adapters 11 are mounted at the side wall of the frame 901. It should be understood that after the plurality of adapters 11 are evenly arranged, lengths of the connecting pipes 12 between every two adjacent adapters 11 are also the same, so that structures of the plurality of adapters 11 are consistent and structures of the plurality of connecting pipes 12 are consistent, making the watering system 100 modular and standardized, so as to facilitate arrangement of the watering system 100, and also facilitate replacement or upgrade of the plurality of adapters 11 and the plurality of connecting pipes 12. In one embodiment of the present disclosure, a spacing of the plurality of adapters 11 may be determined according to a spraying range of the spraying member 20, and it is necessary to ensure that the spraying range of the spraying member 20 connected by adjacent adapters 11 can cover a region between them.

As shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 3, and FIG. 4, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, each adapter 11 includes a base pipe 110, two first connectors 111, and at least one second connector 112. Two ends of the base pipe 110 are respectively provided with a first connector 111, and two first connectors 111 are respectively connected to the connecting pipes 12 located at two ends of the adapter 11. It should be noted that a channel of the base pipe 110 has no bends and passes through the two first connectors 111 along a length extension direction of the base pipe 110. When connecting the connecting pipes 12 through the two first connectors 111, the channel of the base pipe 110 and the connecting pipes 12 have the same extension direction, ensuring smooth water flow in the watering pipeline 10, reducing the likelihood of blockages and benefiting the irrigation of the watering system 100.

The second connector 112 of at least part of the plurality of adapters 11 is connected to the spraying member 20. The first direction a forms an angle with an extension direction of the base pipe 110. It should be understood that when the spraying members 20 are connected through the second connector 112, the spraying members 20 can spray water towards the interior of the frame 901, so as to facilitate irrigation. When the second connector 112 is used to connect an external water supply pipe, it is also convenient for connection and will not conflict with an installation position of the watering pipeline 10, so as to facilitate water supply.

As shown in FIG. 3 to FIG. 6, in one embodiment, the first direction a is perpendicular to an extension direction of the base pipe 110. so as to facilitate the spraying member 20 to spray water towards the interior of the frame 901 for irrigation. In one embodiment, the second connector 112 is located in the middle of the base pipe 110. It should be understood that the base pipe 110 is a symmetrical structure along an extension direction of the base pipe 110, and connecting the second connector 112 to the middle of the base pipe 110 may simplify installation and facilitate adjusting and determining the spacing of the plurality of spraying members 20.

In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the second connector 112 is detachably connected to the base pipe 110 so that the second connector 112 can be replaced as needed. For example, in FIG. 3 and FIG. 5, the second connector 112 is configured for connecting to the spraying member 20, a channel within the second connector 112 is thinner to provide the spraying member 20 with a higher water pressure, improving the spraying effect. For example, in FIG. 4 and FIG. 6, the second connector 112 is configured for connecting to an external water supply pipe, a channel within the second connector 112 is thicker to provide the watering system 100 with a large amount of water quickly, meeting irrigation needs.

In one embodiment, the base pipe 110 is provided with a threaded hole communicating with a channel of the base pipe 110, and one end of the second connector 112 is provided with a threaded connector. The second connector 112 may be threadedly connected to the base pipe 110 for installation between the second connector 112 and the adapter 11, so as to allow for replacement of different second connectors 112 as needed to meet usage requirements.

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 3, as well as FIG. 4, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the base pipe 110 of each adapter 11 extends along a circumferential direction of the frame 901. The base pipes 110 of the plurality of adapters 11 and the plurality of connecting pipes 12 are annularly arranged on the frame 901. Thus the watering pipeline 10 forms a closed loop ensuring that each spraying member 20 sprays evenly, so as to ensure comprehensive and precise irrigation and make the watering system 100 standardized and aesthetically pleasing. In one embodiment, the base pipes 110 of the plurality of adapters 11 and the plurality of connecting pipes 12 are annularly arranged on the side wall of the frame 901.

In one embodiment, the connecting pipe 12 extends along a circumferential direction of the frame 901, so as to ensure smooth flow of water.

As shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 3, and FIG. 4, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the two first connectors 111 are rotatably connected to the connecting pipes 12 at two ends of the base pipe 110. It should be understood that each adapter 11 can rotate relative to the connecting pipes 12 connected at two ends of the adapter 11, so that when installing the watering pipeline 10, the position of the adapter 11 can be adjusted as needed, and thus the position of the second connectors 112 can be adjusted to adjust other structure connected to the adapters 11. For example, the position of the second connectors 112 can be adjusted to adjust the position of the spraying member 20 to adjust a water discharge direction of a water outlet of the spraying member 20, thus adjusting a spraying angle to improve the spraying effect and achieve comprehensive and precise irrigation. For example, precise irrigation can be carried out on roots of plants, which is beneficial to plant growth and at the same time reduces water resource waste caused by imprecise irrigation. For example, the position of the second connectors 112 can be adjusted to a position of the external water supply pipe so that water can be supplied smoothly through the external water supply pipe. Of course, in other embodiments, the two first connectors 111 may also be fixedly connected to the connecting pipe 12 to ensure the sealing of the watering pipeline 10.
