Abstract

An automatic rainwater collection system, with a high degree of autonomy and sensitivity, which allows the collection and use of rainwater, in open spaces, areas of difficult access and/or lacking of water extraction systems, as well as in domestic spaces such as gardens or roofs, without additional adaptations for its use and which works with solar energy. The automatic rainwater collection system is conformed by: a flower-shaped obturable rainwater receiving element, which comprises: a plurality of internal petals and a plurality of external petals that can be opened or closed in an automated manner, a sensor with high sensitivity to droplet impacts and/or relative humidity, which is operatively connected to a motor to control the opening and closing of the plurality of petals of the rainwater receiving element; a support frame, which functions as a support for the obturable rainwater receiving element and as a water storage media; a modular system for filtering water, connected to said central media of water accumulation, which comprises a plurality of filtering modules, which provide different filtering options depending on the quantity and combination thereof in order to obtain different qualities of water for use in several activities; and a water storage media, which further functions as base and support of the collection system.
