Definitions

  • This invention relates to drip irrigation, and more particularly, to a drip irrigation line in which the conduit is multi-layered and contains a biocide.
  • Drip irrigation systems usually include a continuous irrigation water supply line with separate emitter units installed on the line or in the line, usually at regular intervals. Irrigation water flows through the supply line under pressure and a small amount of water continuously drips out at the intervals where the drip emitter units are installed. Drip irrigation has proved highly successful in producing greater growth of vegetation with the same amount of water when compared with conventional irrigation techniques.
  • a common and successful approach for controlling drip flow involves use of separate emitter units installed in or on the supply line.
  • the emitter unit taps off a portion of water flowing in the supply line and passes the water through a labyrinth or other circuitous path that produces a large pressure drop in the water and discharges it at a uniform drip rate.
  • such pressure reducing labyrinthine emitters are successful because they can use a large enough hole in the supply pipe and a wide enough passage through the labyrinth to avoid clogging in most cases and they can be used at higher line pressures.
  • bactericides are toxic to humans and animals and their usage is governed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Regulations limit the amount of bactericide that can be placed in the supply line. These regulations limit the toxicity of the bactericide in the pipe thereby limiting the amount of control over the bacteria levels in the pipe.
  • EPA Environmental Protection Agency
  • the bactericide in the tube is in contact with the soil thereby releasing it into the soil.
  • the bactericide released into the soil kills useful soil bacteria that consumes the sewage bacteria which is emitted by the drip line.

  • the tubing has two layers.
  • a tubular inner layer has a general uniform cross sectional configuration continuous with the length of the tubing and has a biocide for killing bacteria in the water flowing through the tubing and contacting the inner layer.
  • a tubular outer layer has an inner wall displaced against and bonded to the outer wall of the inner layer and is made of a material and has a thickness for inhibiting migration of biocide from the inner layer to outside the tubing.

  • the outer layer comprises a linear low density polyethylene with a broad range of molecular weight.
  • the inner layer is made opaque to electromagnetic radiation, preferably ultraviolet light, harmful to the polyethylene.

  • the outer layer is color coded by selectively dispersing pigment in the outer layer. The preferred pigment color is purple to indicate that the tubing contains nonpotable water, in accordance with standard industry practice.
  • a second embodiment of the invention co , .ises a water irrigation conduit where the conduit has three walls.
  • a tubular inner layer of general uniform cross sectional configuration continuous with the length of the conduit contains a biocide.
  • a tubular intermediate layer has a general uniform cross sectional configuration continuous with the length of the conduit. It is disposed on and bonded to the outer surface of the inner layer.
  • the intermediate layer has a thickness and is made of a material that inhibits the movement of biocide from the inner layer through the intermediate layer.
  • a tubular outer layer has a generally uniform cross sectional configuration continuous with the length of the conduit and surrounds the intermediate layer.

  • the emitter 16 has a water-entry port (not shown) for allowing water to flow from the inside of the conduit 12 into a labyrinth 18 disposed on the outer surface of the emitter.
  • the labyrinth 18 is a narrow passage that circuitously channels the water to generate a turbulent flow.
  • the turbulent flow keeps fine particles in suspension.
  • the raised water-entry ports into the emitter 16 reduce the risk of solids plugging the emitter flow path.
  • the water flows through the labyrinth 18 and out of the fluid discharge port 14 and into the soil (not shown).
  • FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the conduit 12.
  • the conduit preferably has a circular cross section.
  • the conduit 12 comprises an inner layer 20 and an outer layer 22.
  • the inner layer 20 and the outer layer 22 each have a circular cross section and a uniform wall thickness.
  • the inner layer 20 has an inside surface 24 facing towards the center of the conduit to form a tubular enclosed region for containing water or other fluids within the conduit.
  • the inner layer 20 also has an outside surface 26.
  • the outer layer 22 has an inside surface 28 in contact with the outside surface 26 of the inner layer 20.
  • the layers are bonded together by structural co-extrusion techniques.
  • the outer layer 22 has an outside surface 30 exposed to the soil, the sunlight and air.
  • the conduit is preferably formed by coextrusion which is well-known in the electrical cable and packaging industry.
  • the inside layer 20 is preferably made of a low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and has a broad range of molecular weight (BMW). The broad range makes the inner layer 20 easier to extrude with a smooth finish. The smooth finish allows water flow inside the conduit to be laminar.
  • the inner layer 20 also contains a biocide for killing slime-forming bacteria on the inside surface 24 and in the water in the conduit. The biocide leaches out from the inner layer 20 and onto the inside surface 24.
  • the preferred biocide is a bactericide -10,10' oxybisphenoxarsine.
  • the outer layer 22 is made of a material and has a thickness to inhibit the migration or movement of biocide from the inner layer 20, through the outer layer 22, and to the exterior of the conduit.
  • the outer layer 22 is preferably made of a linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) and also has a broad range of molecular weight. A smooth finish on the outer surface 30 is desired to make handling and installation of the conduit easier. Because polyethylene is degraded by exposure to sunlight, especially ultraviolet light, an ultraviolet absorber is added to the outer layer 22. Because many absorbers degrade with prolonged exposure to ultraviolet light, the inner layer 20 is made opaque, preferably by dispersed carbon black pigment. In a preferred embodiment, the outer layer 22 contains a pigment dispersed throughout. In the preferred embodiment, the pigment is purple. Purple is an industry standard indicating that the pipe contains nonpotable water. Alternatively, the outer layer 22 may contain color stripes for fluid-type identification.
  • LLDPE linear low-density polyethylene
  • the inner layer 20 and the outer layer 22 are both made of the same type of polyethylene, for example, linear low-density polyethylene.
  • the inner layer 20 contains biocide.
  • a single layer conduit having a gradient of concentration of biocide with the highest concentration on the inside surface and the least concentration on the outside surface may alternatively be used.
  • the two layer conduit is less expensive to manufacture using co-extrusion then extruding a single layer with a concentration gradient.
  • FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view of an alternate embodiment of the invention illustrating a conduit having three layers.
  • the conduit 12 has an inner layer 32, an intermediate layer 34, and an outer layer 36.
  • the embodiment of FIG. 5 is similar to that of FIG. 4.
  • the inner layer 32 is preferably made of a linear low-density polyethylene.
  • the inner layer 32 also contains a biocide.
  • the intermediate layer 34 is made of a barrier resin such as ethyl vinyl alcohol copolymers (EVOH).
  • EVOH ethyl vinyl alcohol copolymers
  • the barrier resin functions to inhibit easy movement of biocide from the inner layer 32 to the outer layer 36.
  • the barrier resin is chosen to be a different but compatible polymer with the polyethylene. The use of barrier resins in the packaging industry is well known in the art.
  • the intermediate layer 34 is opaque, preferably black, to protect the polyethylene from sunlight.
  • the outer layer 36 is made of a layer of linear low-density polyethylene and has a broad range of molecular weight.
  • the outer layer 36 also contains an ultraviolet absorber and is purple in color to indicate that it contains nonpotable water.
  • Each layer of the conduit 12 is preferably sufficiently thin so that the conduit is flexible.
  • Drip irrigation supply lines are rolled onto large spools during manufacture. The supply lines are installed into the ground by unrolling the line from the spool, and a vibratory plow or trencher buries the line.
  • the inner layer 32 is made of low-density polyethylene with a broad range of molecular weight.
  • the intermediate layer 34 is a linear low-density polyethylene of a narrower range of molecular weight (NMW).
  • NMW molecular weight
  • the narrower range in molecular weight polyethylene provides a poor finish that is not as smooth as the broad range of weight polyethylene. However, because water does not flow along the surface of the intermediate layer, nor is the intermediate layer directly handled, a smooth finish is unnecessary. The use of narrower range in molecular weight material is less expensive than the broad range of molecular weight material.
  • the intermediate layer 34 is also opaque, preferably black, to protect the inner layer 32.
  • the outer layer 36 is made of a linear low-density polyethylene that is of a broad range of molecular weight.
  • the interface between the inner layer 32 and the intermediate layer 34 is an interface of low-density polyethylene of a broad range of molecular weight and linear low-density polyethylene of narrower range of molecular weight.
  • the interface between the intermediate layer 34 and the outer layer 36 is a linear low-density polyethylene of narrower range in molecular weight and the linear low-density polyethylene of the broad range of molecular weight. These interfaces are designed to inhibit easy movement of the biocide across the interface due to the difference in crystalinity and molecular structure between the two materials.
  • FIG. 6 is a cross sectional view of an alternate embodiment of the invention illustrating a conduit having four layers.
  • Conduit 12 has in inner layer 40, a first intermediate layer 42, a second intermediate layer 44, and an outer layer 46.
  • the inner layer 40 is preferably made of a linear low density polyethylene of broad range of molecular weight.
  • the inner layer 40 also contains a biocide.
  • the first intermediate layer 42 is made of barrier resin such as ethyl vinyl alcohol copolymers (EVOH).
  • the second intermediate layer 44 is preferably made of a linear low density polyethylene of a narrow range of molecular weight and is opaque preferably black to protect the polyethylene from sunlight.
