A cleaning and draining combined structure of a tailing pond comprises a tailing pond dam body, a dry beach area is close to the right side of the tailing pond dam body, and deposited
tailings, muddy water and clear water are sequentially close to the right side of the dry beach area. A drainage well is arranged on the muddy water, the bottom end of the drainage well is connected with a
culvert, and an
air cushion floating bridge is arranged on the drainage well and connected to clear water; a
siphon is laid on the
air cushion floating bridge, one end of the
siphon is located in clear water, the other end of the
siphon is located in the drainage well, one end of the siphon is a siphon water inlet, the other end of the siphon is a siphon water outlet, and the siphon water outlet is lower than the siphon water inlet; the
sedimentation area is subjected to reservoir emptying through
stoping tailings, muddy water close to the
sedimentation area is gradually settled into clear water and directly overflows into the drainage well, and if the
water quality does not completely meet the requirement after reservoir emptying, the clear water is taken and drained into the drainage well through a siphon; the problems that
sewage treatment burden and
sewage treatment cost are increased due to the fact that muddy water directly enters the drainage well and the
culvert are solved, and the
flood prevention capacity in the
flood season is improved through the combined structure.
