Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wave-making equipment, and in particular to a compartment-type wave-making equipment and a surfing pool. Background Art
[0002] In the prior art, there are many ways to make waves, all of which require corresponding wave-making equipment. For example, in some schemes, multiple wave-making units are provided, and a push plate is provided at the output end of the unit for pushing water. The push plates of multiple units are hinged together to form a whole wave-pushing belt, which can push water through the swing of the wave-pushing belt, thereby generating surges.
[0003] However, once one or more units of this type of equipment are damaged, the entire wave-making equipment needs to be shut down for maintenance, and its durability is poor. At the same time, since the wave-pushing belt is an integral structure, once a node is damaged, it is easy to expand the damage due to mutual pulling. It can only be reactivated after all damaged parts are repaired, which is neither economical nor effective. It also greatly affects actual operations.
[0004] In view of this, this application is hereby filed. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to solve the problems of the prior art, the utility model provides a compartment-type wave-making equipment and a surfing pool. The wave-making equipment is composed of various independent single-compartment units. An appropriate number of compartments can be configured according to demand, and then the corresponding single-compartment units can be installed to form a wave-making room. Since the single-compartment units work independently and are not connected to each other, when the equipment fails, the components of one or some single-compartment units can be quickly repaired and replaced. There is no need to remove the connection between adjacent units in order to repair a certain unit, and there is no need to reconnect with adjacent components after replacement, which reduces unnecessary operations and is more efficient than the existing wave-pushing belt form.
[0006] The utility model is achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0007] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a compartment-type wave-making device, comprising a plurality of linearly arranged single compartment units, each of which comprises a mounting frame, a driving mechanism, a transmission mechanism, and a wave-pushing member;
[0008] The wave pushing members are arranged on the mounting frame, and the driving mechanism can drive the wave pushing members to perform horizontal reciprocating motion along the mounting frame through a transmission mechanism, and the motion directions of the plurality of wave pushing members are arranged side by side and parallel.
[0009] The compartment-type wave-making equipment of the present invention is composed of various independent single-compartment units. An appropriate number of compartments can be configured according to demand, and then corresponding single-compartment units can be installed to form a wave-making room. Since the single-compartment units work independently and are not connected to each other, when the equipment fails, the components of one or some single-compartment units can be quickly repaired and replaced. There is no need to remove the connection between adjacent units in order to repair a certain unit, and there is no need to reconnect with adjacent components after replacement, which reduces unnecessary operations and is more efficient than the existing wave-pushing belt form.
[0010] In the compartment-type wave-making equipment of the present invention, the preset directions of multiple single compartment units are parallel. Each single compartment unit can move in sequence, or some single compartment units can be grouped together and each group moves in sequence, thereby changing the shape of the surge and controlling the height or frequency of the waves.
[0011] In a specific embodiment, the driving mechanism can be a power mechanism capable of forward and reverse driving, or it can be a unidirectional driving power mechanism combined with a transmission mechanism capable of reciprocating transmission to achieve bidirectional driving. The present application uses a motor as a power mechanism, which cooperates with a transmission mechanism to achieve the reciprocating motion of the wave pushing board. In a specific embodiment, the wave pushing component is a wave pushing board, and rollers are provided at the upper and lower ends of the wave pushing board, and horizontal rails are provided at the upper and lower corresponding positions of the mounting frame. The wave pushing component is slidably connected to the horizontal slide rail of the mounting frame through rollers, so that the wave pushing board will not jump due to the reaction force of the water during the reciprocating motion, thereby ensuring that the water can be pushed in the preset direction.
[0012] In a specific embodiment, the wave-pushing member can also be a box. When configured as a box, adjacent boxes do not need to be separated by walls because the gap between adjacent boxes is relatively narrow in the horizontal direction, allowing less water to pass through, while still achieving the desired wave-making effect. Alternatively, the wave-pushing member can be two parallel vertically arranged plates, each facing the water on one side, connected by a connecting member, and then the transmission mechanism directly drives the connecting member, thereby driving the two plates to move simultaneously.
[0013] In a specific embodiment, the surfboard itself can be a whole board or not. For example, the whole board can be divided into three parts, with the middle part being larger and the two sides being smaller. The two sides are arranged to be hinged to the middle board, etc., so as to avoid the single board body bearing a large load and affecting the service life.
[0014] In a specific embodiment, the transmission mechanism adopts a rack and pinion mechanism, the rack of the rack and pinion mechanism is connected to the wave pushing member, and the gear of the rack and pinion mechanism is connected to the output shaft of the motor.
[0015] In a specific embodiment, the transmission mechanism adopts a screw slider mechanism, the screw of the screw slider mechanism is connected to the motor output shaft, the slider of the screw slider mechanism is connected to the wave pushing component, and the slider is threaded with the screw.
[0016] In a specific embodiment, the transmission mechanism adopts a winch mechanism, the winches are set at both ends of the preset movement direction, and then the wave pushing component is connected to the rope of the winch, and the motor drives the winch to wind and unwind, thereby driving the wave pushing component to reciprocate.
[0017] In a specific embodiment, the driving mechanism can be directly installed on the wave-pushing component. The transmission mechanism adopts a synchronous pulley structure. A drive shaft is installed on the wave-pushing component. The motor is connected to the drive shaft through a synchronous pulley, and the drive shaft is connected to the roller, just like the engine of a car, driving the wave-pushing component to move along the track.
[0018] In a specific embodiment, the driving mechanism may be connected to the mounting frame or may be provided with a separate foundation in the machine room. The specific installation location may be selected according to the matching transmission mechanism and the size of the installation space.
[0019] In a second aspect, the present invention provides a surfing pool with compartmentalized wave generation, comprising a pool and a wave-making room. The wave-making room is divided into multiple compartments along its length, each of which is equipped with one or more single compartment units. All compartments are separated by partitions, such as walls. Along the length of the wave-making room, one end is the head end and the other is the tail end. Wave generation can begin at the head end, with the wave-pushing components of the single compartment units operating sequentially, thereby pushing water sequentially from the head end.
[0020] The wave-making room is set in a pool to form a surfing pool. Pool bodies can be set on both sides of the wave-making room. The wave-pushing boards of the single-chamber units are inserted into the water to a certain depth. Each single-chamber unit can simultaneously affect the water on both sides of the board body during reciprocating motion. In a single chamber, the gap between the wave-pushing components and the chamber side walls, top wall, and bottom wall can be made as small as possible, and the amount of water on both sides of the wave-pushing board can be reduced. This can minimize the amount of water bypassing the wave-pushing board, avoid the formation of turbulence behind the board that affects the movement of the wave-pushing board, and enable the wave-pushing board to push as much water as possible, thereby increasing the potential energy of the surge and increasing the chance of creating higher waves.
[0021] In a specific embodiment, there are two water pools, which are respectively arranged on both sides of the wave-making room.
[0022] In a specific embodiment, diversion channels and water outlets are provided on both sides of the wave pushing component in the chamber, that is, a single chamber has two water outlets, so that when the wave pushing board moves back and forth, the water on both sides can flow out from the water outlet on one side respectively. The chamber is further provided with a diversion channel so that the water can flow in the designed direction when it flows out. The diversion channels on both sides of the wave pushing board can be symmetrically or asymmetrically arranged. Because the water on both sides is basically separated by the wave pushing board, the flow between them is less. It is entirely possible to set diversion channels with different directions on both sides of the wave pushing board, and the water on both sides of the wave pushing board can be diverted separately to flow out of the wave making room in the designed direction.
[0023] In a specific embodiment, the water pool is fan-shaped, and the two fan-shaped water pools are axially symmetrically distributed on both sides of the wave-making room with the length direction of the wave-making room as the axis. The two water pools are arranged on both sides of the wave-making equipment in an axially symmetrical distribution. The orientation of the chamber in the wave-making room can be adjusted according to the distribution of the water pools, or by setting a diversion channel with an adapted orientation; or the water pools are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the wave-making equipment, and the compartment-type wave-making equipment is distributed along the straight edge of the water pool.
[0024] The utility model adopts a fan-shaped pool, the pool wall of which can guide the surge. Combined with the sequential movement of each single compartment unit from the head end to the tail end of the compartment-type wave-making equipment, the surge can be made to gradually surge from the narrow diameter of the pool to the wide diameter, forming a continuously moving surge.
[0025] In a specific embodiment, the pool includes a primary wave-making area, a secondary wave-making area, and a tertiary wave-making area. The primary wave-making area is directly connected to the wave-making room. The secondary wave-making area is connected to the primary wave-making area by a ramp. The depth of the secondary wave-making area is less than that of the primary wave-making area. The tertiary wave-making area is connected to the secondary wave-making area by a ramp. The depth of the tertiary wave-making area is less than that of the secondary wave-making area, and the depth gradually decreases from the tertiary wave-making area to the shore. The ramps and slopes are structures with short-range variations in height at the bottom of the pool, and are provided to create different waves. Their specific location, style, and structural dimensions are not limited to those shown in the figure, and other shapes and distribution areas can be selected according to actual site planning.
[0026] The utility model can divide the water pool according to the function of wave making. Taking a single fan-shaped water pool as an example, the area directly connected to the wave making equipment is the primary wave making area, and the secondary wave making area is connected to the primary wave making area. The primary wave making area is connected to the secondary wave making area through a slope. The depth of the secondary wave area is less than that of the primary wave area, so that the bottom water body can be lifted by the slope to form a rolling wave that can be used for surfing in the secondary wave area. Along the widening direction of the fan-shaped water pool, the tertiary wave area is adjacent to the secondary primary wave area. The depth of the tertiary wave area is further reduced. The two are connected by a ramp, and the depth gradually decreases from the tertiary area to the shore.
[0027] In one specific embodiment, the area extending from the primary wave-making area along the length of the wave-making room toward the shore is the backwater area. The backwater area is adjacent to the tertiary wave area and the ramp that transitions between the second and third wave areas. The depth of the backwater area gradually decreases from the primary wave-making area to the shore and is less than that of the adjacent ramp and tertiary wave area, allowing water from adjacent areas to flow toward the backwater area and ultimately into the primary wave-making area. This ensures that the surge propagates normally during wave-making, preventing the backwater area from affecting the surfable portion of the water body. It also ensures that other parts of the water body can return to the backwater area, meeting the water circulation needs of the primary wave-making area and achieving continuous wave-making.
[0028] In a specific embodiment, the water pool may be of other shapes, such as the shape of a traditional surfing pool, and two water pools may also be symmetrically distributed on both sides of the wave-making device.
[0029] In a specific embodiment, two different pools can be used simultaneously. The pool on one side of the wave-making room is provided with a slope, while the pool on the other side is not. For example, one side of the wave-making equipment is provided with a traditional surfing pool without a short slope with a sudden change in slope, so the wave height is not too high, which is more suitable for ordinary people to play. The other side uses a fan-shaped pool with a slope, which is suitable for professional surfing. Of course, the specific shape of the pool and whether to have a slope can be adapted according to the site conditions and the wave-making requirements.
[0030] In one specific embodiment, a sloped edge can be installed on only one side of the pool to create a surfable wave. On the other side, instead of a sudden change in depth, a long, gently sloping ramp is installed from the primary area toward the shore, gradually decreasing the water depth. This allows for a wider range of play for visitors who prefer not to skateboard but still want to experience the waves. To prevent waves from retaining excessive potential energy upon reaching the shore, a concave area can be installed near the shore, allowing the water's potential to decay rapidly. This ensures that the waves do not affect visitors in the larger water area, while also preventing impacts on those near the shore, providing a positive experience for all visitors.
[0031] In one specific embodiment, each chamber has only one single chamber unit. From the head end to the tail end, the single chamber units operate sequentially, and the wave-pushing board gradually pushes the water in the same direction, forming a unified surge. Specifically, the left-right direction from the perspective of the drawing is the first direction, and the up-down direction is the second direction. Multiple chambers are arranged sequentially along the second direction, and the wave-exit direction of each chamber is the left-right direction. The diversion channel can be left-right diversion or inclined diversion.
[0032] The diversion channel's diversion method can influence the shape of the surf pool. Left-right diversion channels direct water to the left and right, relying on the side walls of the fan-shaped pool to guide the water. Sloping diversion channels, on the other hand, have less influence on the pool walls and are independent of them, allowing for more options in pool shape and facilitating the planning of the surf pool's location and shape based on the terrain.
[0033] During operation, the wave-pushing board of the first single-compartment unit pushes the wave to the left. After a certain interval, the wave-pushing board of the second single-compartment unit below also starts to push the wave to the left. The single-compartment units of each subsequent compartment also operate in sequence, causing the water to move toward the side wall of the pool. The pool wall is at an angle to the direction of the water's push, thus guiding the water to move diagonally. When the water encounters an area with a slope, the water is lifted by the slope, causing the top of the water to jump up. As it continues to move, the jumped part collapses, forming a wave-like curl that can be used for surfing.
[0034] When the first chamber's wave-pushing board finishes its leftward motion, it pushes rightward, causing water to surge into the right pool. The wave-pushing boards in the other chambers then repeat this process in sequence. Thus, when the individual chambers of the wave-making system are operating, the combined motion of the multiple wave-pushing boards acts like a whip in the water, continuously propelling the water. This process creates waves in the left and right pools, alternating between them.
[0035] When in use, the wave-making equipment of the utility model can divide a plurality of chambers distributed along the length direction of the wave-making room into a plurality of wave-making groups, each wave-making group including one or more chambers, and the wave-pushing components of the single chamber units move in sequence from the wave-making group at one end to the wave-making group at the other end; the wave-pushing speeds of the wave-pushing components of two adjacent wave-making groups are the same or different; and the difference in the wave-pushing speeds of different wave-pushing components in the same wave-making group is less than 0.2 m / s.
[0036] When pushing waves at the same speed, the wave-making group and the adjacent wave-making group are started in sequence at intervals. Depending on the height and speed of the waves to be made, different wave-pushing speeds, starting intervals, and stroke lengths can be used. For example, they can all be started at a speed of 0.5m / s and at intervals of 1s. After the first wave-making group is started, the second wave-making group will start after an interval of 1s, and the following wave-making groups will do the same. After the first wave-making group runs to the left to a preset stroke (for example, 3 meters), it reverses and returns to the starting position and continues to run a preset stroke (for example, 3 meters) to the right. The same applies to the other wave-making groups. In this way, water can be pushed to make waves in the pools on both sides in turn. When the wave-making requirements of the pools on both sides are different, the wave-pushing speed, starting interval, and stroke length of the wave-pushing board relative to the pool can be different. For example, when running 3 meters to the left, it may only run 2 meters when running to the right.
[0037] When in use, the wave-making device of the present invention can be grouped into compartments. For example, the first and second compartments can be grouped together, and the third and fourth compartments can be grouped together. Subsequently, they can be grouped in pairs, and then the groups can be used as units to push waves in sequence, thereby forming different wave patterns. In addition, the speed of each group's pushing waves can also be adjusted. By changing the grouping method and the pushing speed, a variety of wave patterns can be combined. For example, the first and second compartments can be grouped together, the third, fourth, and fifth compartments can be grouped together, the sixth and seventh compartments can be grouped together, and the eighth, ninth, and tenth compartments can be grouped together. Subsequently, different wave patterns can be generated. It is understood by those skilled in the art that there can be more grouping types, and further, the speed of the wave-pushing board in the same group is not required to be consistent, but can have differences within a certain range, but the speed of the same group needs to be basically consistent at the same level speed. Taking the way of grouping two by two compartments as an example, the first group is a fast group, so one of the wave-pushing boards can be at a speed of 1m / s, and the other is 1.1m / s; the second group is a slightly slower medium-speed group, one wave-pushing board is 0.9m / s, the other can be 0.8m / s, or it can be 0.7m / s, and the subsequent third group also gradually reduces the speed. To the subsequent slow group, it can be two wave-pushing boards 0.2m / s, or one 0.2m / s and one 0.3m / s. Of course, the above speed values are only examples and are not used as limitations to the present application. Those skilled in the art can also set other speeds according to the scheme of the present application and adjust them according to actual wave-making needs.
[0038] It is also conceivable that when working in groups, the speed of the wave push does not necessarily have to be gradually reduced by each group. The speed of the wave push can also be gradually increased, or acceleration and deceleration can be alternating. Through different combinations of wave push operations, factors such as wave height, wave width range, wave speed, and wave duration can be adjusted differently, forming a variety of wave types. After increasing the design of the pool bottom (such as the number and location of slopes and ramps), even more wave types can be formed. Some of these waves can be used for group surfing, some for single surfing, some for professional surfers, and some for novice surfers. Furthermore, because the pool has multiple zones, the wave surge will gradually decay as it spreads from the primary zone to the shore during a wave-making operation, allowing people in different zones to experience different degrees of wave impact. For example, the second wave zone is suitable for professional surfers due to its high waves. When the wave reaches the third zone, the wave height decreases, but the wave potential energy is still acceptable, which can be used for novice training. As the wave continues to spread, even though the wave is lower, the impact of the water flow still exists, which can be used by tourists in shallow waters.
[0039] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and beneficial effects:
[0040] 1. The present invention provides a compartment-type wave-making device and surfing pool. The wave-making device is composed of independent single-compartment units. An appropriate number of compartments can be configured according to demand, and then the corresponding single-compartment units can be installed to form a wave-making room. Since the single-compartment units work independently and are not connected to each other, when a device malfunctions, the components of one or more single-compartment units can be quickly repaired and replaced. There is no need to remove the connections between adjacent units to repair a unit, and there is no need to reconnect adjacent components after replacement. This reduces unnecessary operations and is more efficient than existing wave-pushing belts.
[0041] 2. The present invention provides a compartmentalized wave-making equipment and surfing pool. When wave shape requirements are not high, such as in non-competition situations, if a single compartment unit fails, other compartment units can continue to operate without shutting down the entire wave-making room to repair a partial failure, which is more conducive to the continued use of the wave-making room.
[0042] 3. The embodiment of the present invention provides a compartment-type wave-making equipment and a surfing pool. By designing different wave-pushing combinations for the single compartment units of the wave-making equipment in the wave-making room, different types of waves can be generated, and the waves can meet the needs of people in different areas during the process of movement.

[0061] Example 1
[0062] like Figures 1-6 As shown, the embodiment of the present invention provides a compartment-type wave-making device, comprising a plurality of linearly arranged single compartment units, each of which comprises a mounting frame 2, a driving mechanism 3, a transmission mechanism 4 and a wave-pushing member 5.
[0063] The wave pushing members 5 are arranged on the mounting frame 2 , and the driving mechanism 3 can drive the wave pushing members 5 to perform horizontal reciprocating motion along the mounting frame 2 through the transmission mechanism 4 , and the movement directions of the plurality of wave pushing members 5 are arranged side by side and parallel.
[0064] The compartment-type wave-making equipment of the present invention is composed of various independent single-compartment units. An appropriate number of compartments can be configured according to demand, and then corresponding single-compartment units can be installed to form a wave-making room. Since the single-compartment units work independently and are not connected to each other, when the equipment fails, the components of one or some single-compartment units can be quickly repaired and replaced. There is no need to remove the connection between adjacent units in order to repair a certain unit, and there is no need to reconnect with adjacent components after replacement, which reduces unnecessary operations and is more efficient than the existing wave-pushing belt form.
[0065] In the compartment-type wave-making equipment of the present invention, the preset directions of multiple single compartment units are parallel. Each single compartment unit can move in sequence, or some single compartment units can be grouped together and each group moves in sequence, thereby changing the shape of the surge and controlling the height or frequency of the waves.
[0066] In a specific embodiment, the driving mechanism can be a power mechanism capable of forward and reverse driving, or a unidirectional driving power mechanism combined with a transmission mechanism capable of reciprocating transmission to achieve bidirectional drive. This application uses a motor as a power mechanism, which cooperates with the transmission mechanism to achieve the reciprocating motion of the surfboard.
[0067] In a specific embodiment, a horizontal slide rail is installed on the mounting frame 2, and the wave pushing member 5 is slidably connected to the mounting frame 2 via rollers 6.
[0068] In a specific embodiment, the wave-pushing component 5 is a wave-pushing board, and rollers 6 are provided at the upper and lower ends of the wave-pushing board, and tracks are provided at the upper and lower corresponding positions of the mounting frame 2, so that the wave-pushing board will not jump due to the reaction force of the water during the reciprocating motion, ensuring that the water can be pushed in the preset direction.
[0069] In a specific embodiment, the surfboard itself can be a whole board or not. For example, the whole board can be divided into three parts, with the middle part being larger and the two sides being smaller. The two sides are arranged to be hinged to the middle board, etc., so as to avoid the single board body bearing a large load and affecting the service life.
[0070] Since the single-chamber unit exists independently, even if the wave-pushing board needs maintenance, the hinged board of the unit can be repaired separately. Compared with traditional methods, there is no need to shut down the entire wave-making equipment or drain the water for maintenance. This is because traditional equipment has more structures in the underwater part, and when repairing, many mechanisms need to be disassembled for maintenance and replacement. In cases of severe damage, the water in the surfing pool needs to be drained for maintenance, resulting in a huge waste of water resources. The maintenance cycle is also extremely long and takes several months to complete. For outdoor water parks operating in the summer, this is tantamount to missing the only operating window of the year. Therefore, the traditional wave-pushing belt has a very poor experience in actual use.
[0071] In a specific embodiment, the wave-pushing member 5 can also be a box. When configured as a box, adjacent boxes do not need to be separated by walls because the gap between adjacent boxes is relatively narrow in the horizontal direction, allowing less water to pass through, while still achieving the desired wave-making effect. Alternatively, the wave-pushing member can be two parallel vertically arranged plates, each facing the water on one side, connected by a connecting member, and then the transmission mechanism directly drives the connecting member, thereby driving the two plates to move simultaneously.
[0072] In a specific embodiment, the transmission mechanism 4 adopts a rack and pinion mechanism 7 , the rack of the rack and pinion mechanism 7 is connected to the wave pushing member 5 , and the gear of the rack and pinion mechanism 7 is connected to the output shaft of the motor 8 .

[0077] Example 2
[0078] like Figure 7-11 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a compartmented wave-generating surfing pool, comprising a pool 9 and a wave-making room 10. The wave-making room is divided into multiple compartments 1 along its length, each compartment 1 being provided with one or more single compartment units. All compartments 1 are separated by partitions, such as walls. Along the length of the wave-making room, one end is the head end and the other is the tail end. Wave-making can begin at the head end, with the wave-pushing components of the single compartment units operating sequentially, thereby pushing water sequentially from the head end.
[0079] Among them, when the wave-pushing component is a box structure, no partitions may be provided between the boxes, which can also prevent a large amount of water from flowing between the boxes and ensure that the volume of water pushed during wave pushing is sufficient to form waves.
[0080] The wave-making room is set in a pool to form a surfing pool. Pool bodies can be set on both sides of the wave-making room. The wave-pushing boards of the single-chamber units are inserted into the water to a certain depth. Each single-chamber unit can simultaneously affect the water on both sides of the board body during reciprocating motion. In a single chamber, the gap between the wave-pushing components and the chamber side walls, top wall, and bottom wall can be made as small as possible, and the amount of water on both sides of the wave-pushing board can be reduced. This can minimize the amount of water bypassing the wave-pushing board, avoid the formation of turbulence behind the board that affects the movement of the wave-pushing board, and enable the wave-pushing board to push as much water as possible, thereby increasing the potential energy of the surge and increasing the chance of creating higher waves.
[0081] In a specific embodiment, there are two water pools, which are respectively arranged on both sides of the wave-making room.
[0082] In a specific embodiment, diversion channels 11 and water outlets are provided on both sides of the wave pushing member 5 in the chamber, that is, a single chamber has two water outlets, so that when the wave pushing board moves back and forth, the water on both sides can flow out from the water outlet on one side respectively. The chamber is further provided with a diversion channel so that the water can flow in the designed direction when it flows out. The diversion channels on both sides of the wave pushing board can be symmetrically or asymmetrically arranged. Because the water on both sides is basically separated by the wave pushing board, the flow between them is less. It is entirely possible to set diversion channels with different directions on both sides of the wave pushing board, and the water on both sides of the wave pushing board can be diverted separately to flow out of the wave making room in the designed direction.
[0083] In a specific embodiment, the water pool is fan-shaped, and the two fan-shaped water pools are axially symmetrically distributed on both sides of the wave-making room with the length direction of the wave-making room as the axis. The two water pools are arranged on both sides of the wave-making equipment in an axially symmetrical distribution. The orientation of the chamber in the wave-making room can be adjusted according to the distribution of the water pools, or by setting a diversion channel with an adapted orientation; or the water pools are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the wave-making equipment, and the compartment-type wave-making equipment is distributed along the straight edge of the water pool.
[0084] The utility model adopts a fan-shaped pool, the pool wall of which can guide the surge. Combined with the sequential movement of each single compartment unit from the head end to the tail end of the compartment-type wave-making equipment, the surge can be made to gradually surge from the narrow diameter of the pool to the wide diameter, forming a continuously moving surge.
[0085] In a specific embodiment, the water pool includes a primary wave-making area 12, a secondary wave area 13 and a tertiary wave area 14. The primary wave-making area is directly connected to the wave-making room, and the secondary wave area is connected to the primary wave-making area through a slope 15. The depth of the secondary wave area is less than the depth of the primary wave-making area. The tertiary wave area is connected to the secondary wave area through a ramp 16. The depth of the tertiary wave area is less than the depth of the secondary wave area, and the depth gradually decreases from the tertiary wave area to the shore.
[0086] The utility model can divide the water pool according to the function of wave making. Taking a single fan-shaped water pool as an example, the area directly connected to the wave making equipment is the primary wave making area, and the secondary wave making area is connected to the primary wave making area. The primary wave making area is connected to the secondary wave making area through a slope. The depth of the secondary wave area is less than that of the primary wave area, so that the bottom water body can be lifted by the slope to form a rolling wave that can be used for surfing in the secondary wave area. Along the widening direction of the fan-shaped water pool, the tertiary wave area is adjacent to the secondary primary wave area. The depth of the tertiary wave area is further reduced. The two are connected by a ramp, and the depth gradually decreases from the tertiary area to the shore.
[0087] In one specific embodiment, the area extending from the primary wave-making area along the length of the wave-making room toward the shore is the backwater area 17. The backwater area is adjacent to the tertiary wave area and the ramp that transitions between the second and third wave areas. The depth of the backwater area gradually decreases from the primary wave-making area to the shore and is less than that of the adjacent ramp and tertiary wave area, allowing water from adjacent areas to flow toward the backwater area and ultimately toward the primary wave-making area. This ensures that the surge propagates normally during wave-making, preventing the surfable portion of the water from being affected by the backwater area. It also ensures that other parts of the water can flow back into the backwater area, meeting the water circulation needs of the primary wave-making area and achieving continuous wave-making.
[0088] In a specific embodiment, the water pool may be of other shapes, such as the shape of a traditional surfing pool, and two water pools may also be symmetrically distributed on both sides of the wave-making device.
[0089] In a specific embodiment, two different pools can be used simultaneously. The pool on one side of the wave-making room is provided with a slope, while the pool on the other side is not. For example, one side of the wave-making equipment can be a traditional surfing pool without a short slope with a sudden change in slope, so the wave height is not too high, which is more suitable for ordinary people. The other side uses a fan-shaped pool with a slope, which is suitable for professional surfers. Of course, the specific shape of the pool and whether to have a slope can be adapted according to the site conditions and the wave-making requirements.
[0090] In one specific embodiment, a sloped edge can be installed on only one side of the pool to create a surfable wave. On the other side, instead of a sudden change in depth, a long, gently sloping ramp is installed from the primary area toward the shore, gradually decreasing the water depth. This allows for a wider range of play for visitors who prefer not to skateboard but still want to experience the waves. To prevent waves from retaining excessive potential energy upon reaching the shore, a concave area can be installed near the shore, allowing the water's potential to decay rapidly. This ensures that the waves do not affect visitors in the larger water area, while also preventing impacts on those near the shore, providing a positive experience for all visitors.
[0091] In one specific embodiment, each chamber has only one single chamber unit. From the head end to the tail end, the single chamber units operate sequentially, and the wave-pushing board gradually pushes the water in the same direction, forming a unified surge. Specifically, the left-right direction from the perspective of the drawing is the first direction, and the up-down direction is the second direction. Multiple chambers are arranged sequentially along the second direction, and the wave-exit direction of each chamber is the left-right direction. The diversion channel can be left-right diversion or inclined diversion.
[0092] The diversion channel's diversion method can influence the shape of the surf pool. Left-right diversion channels direct water to the left and right, relying on the side walls of the fan-shaped pool to guide the water. Sloping diversion channels, on the other hand, have less influence on the pool walls and are independent of them, allowing for more options in pool shape and facilitating the planning of the surf pool's location and shape based on the terrain, making it more practical.
[0093] During operation, the wave-pushing board of the first single-compartment unit pushes the wave to the left. After a certain interval, the wave-pushing board of the second single-compartment unit below also starts to push the wave to the left. The single-compartment units of each subsequent compartment also operate in sequence, causing the water to move toward the side wall of the pool. The pool wall is at an angle to the direction of the water's push, thus guiding the water to move diagonally. When the water encounters an area with a slope, the water is lifted by the slope, causing the top of the water to jump up. As it continues to move, the jumped part collapses, forming a wave-like curl that can be used for surfing.
[0094] When the first chamber's wave-pushing board finishes its leftward motion, it pushes rightward, causing water to surge into the right pool. The wave-pushing boards in the other chambers then repeat this process in sequence. Thus, when the individual chambers of the wave-making system are operating, the combined motion of the multiple wave-pushing boards acts like a whip in the water, continuously propelling the water. This process creates waves in the left and right pools, alternating between them.
[0095] When in use, the wave-making equipment of the utility model can divide a plurality of chambers distributed along the length direction of the wave-making room into a plurality of wave-making groups, each wave-making group including one or more chambers, and the wave-pushing components of the single chamber units move in sequence from the wave-making group at one end to the wave-making group at the other end; the wave-pushing speeds of the wave-pushing components of two adjacent wave-making groups are the same or different; and the difference in the wave-pushing speeds of different wave-pushing components in the same wave-making group is less than 0.2 m / s.
[0096] When pushing waves at the same speed, the wave-making group and the adjacent wave-making group are started in sequence at intervals. Depending on the height and speed of the waves to be made, different wave-pushing speeds, starting intervals, and stroke lengths can be used. For example, they can all be started at a speed of 0.5m / s and at intervals of 1s. After the first wave-making group is started, the second wave-making group will start after an interval of 1s, and the following wave-making groups will do the same. After the first wave-making group runs to the left to a preset stroke (for example, 3 meters), it reverses and returns to the starting position and continues to run a preset stroke (for example, 3 meters) to the right. The same applies to the other wave-making groups. In this way, water can be pushed to make waves in the pools on both sides in turn. When the wave-making requirements of the pools on both sides are different, the wave-pushing speed, starting interval, and stroke length of the wave-pushing board relative to the pool can be different. For example, when running 3 meters to the left, it may only run 2 meters when running to the right.
[0097] The wave-making device of the utility model can be used to group the chambers. For example, the first and second chambers form a group, and the third and fourth chambers form a group. Subsequently, two chambers can be grouped together. Then, each group can be used as a unit to push waves in sequence, thereby forming different wave patterns. In addition, the pushing speed of each group can also be adjusted. By changing the grouping method and the pushing speed, a variety of wave patterns can be combined.
[0098] For example, the first and second compartments can be a group, the third, fourth, and fifth compartments can be a group, the sixth and seventh compartments can be a group, and the eighth, ninth, and tenth compartments can be a group. The subsequent arrangement is based on this rule, and different wave types can be produced. It is understood by those skilled in the art that there can be more grouping types, and further, the speed of the wave-pushing board in the same group does not require to be consistent, but can have differences within a certain range, but the speed of the same group needs to be basically consistent at the same level speed. For example, the first group is a fast group, so one of the wave-pushing boards can be a speed of 1m / s, and the other is 1.1m / s; the second group is a slightly slower medium-speed group, one wave-pushing board is 0.9m / s, the other can be 0.8m / s, or it can be 0.7m / s. The subsequent third group also gradually reduces the speed, and to the subsequent slow group, it can be two wave-pushing boards 0.2m / s, or one 0.2m / s and one 0.3m / s. Of course, the above speed values are only examples and are not intended to limit the present application. Personnel in this field can also set other speeds according to the solution of the present application and adjust them according to actual wave-making needs.
[0099] It is also conceivable that when working in groups, the speed of the wave push does not necessarily have to be gradually reduced by each group. The speed can also be gradually increased, or acceleration and deceleration can be alternating. Through different combinations of wave push operations, factors such as wave height, wave width range, wave speed, and wave duration can be adjusted differently, forming a variety of wave types. After adding the design of the undulating pool bottom, even more wave types can be formed. Some of these waves can be used for group surfing, some for single surfing, some for professional surfers, and some for novice surfers. Furthermore, because the pool has multiple zones, the wave surge will gradually decay as it spreads from the primary zone to the shore during a wave-making operation, allowing people in different zones to experience different degrees of wave impact. For example, the second wave zone is suitable for professional surfers due to its high waves. When the wave reaches the third zone, the wave height decreases, but the wave potential energy is still sufficient, which can be used for novice training. As the wave continues to spread, even though the wave is lower, the impact of the water flow still exists, which can be used by tourists in shallow waters.
[0100] According to the equipment of the present application, people in this field can pre-set a variety of wave patterns according to the wave-making effect. Each pattern has its own parameters such as the number of wave-making groups, the speed of the wave-pushing board, the starting interval, the length of the stroke, etc., which are pre-stored in the control system. The operator directly selects the wave type, and the compartment-type wave-making equipment can work according to the parameter information to create the required wave type.
[0101] The specific implementation methods described above further illustrate the purpose, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the utility model in detail. It should be understood that the above description is only a specific implementation method of the utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the utility model. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the utility model should be included in the scope of protection of the utility model.
