Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rainwater treatment equipment technology, specifically to an automatic water blocking device. Background Technology

[0002] Urban flooding has become increasingly serious during urban development. During heavy rains, underground parking garages and low-lying areas are prone to flooding, posing a significant threat to people's lives and property. Existing flood control devices mainly include sandbags and traditional fixed flood barriers. While sandbags are inexpensive, they require a large amount of manpower to transport and fill, have limited flood-blocking effectiveness, are prone to leakage, and are troublesome to clean up after use. Traditional fixed flood barriers are relatively complex to install, requiring pre-installation of fixing devices on the ground or walls. They cannot automatically adjust their height according to water level changes, lack flexibility, and are difficult to meet emergency flood control needs.

[0003] Therefore, existing technologies still need to be improved and developed. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide an automatic water blocking device that addresses the above-mentioned deficiencies of the prior art. The height of the baffle can change with the water level, resulting in a good water blocking effect and improving the timeliness and effectiveness of water blocking.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the technical problem is as follows:

At least one hinge mechanism is provided in the middle of the self-floating plate, and the other end of the hinge mechanism is connected to the front end of the base.

[0010] The hinge mechanism includes three sequentially connected links. Two adjacent links are connected by a second hinge. The front end of the base is connected to the links by a third hinge. The self-floating plate is connected to the links by a fourth hinge.

[0011] Preferably, the self-floating plate includes an aluminum alloy panel and a plurality of EVA foam boards disposed on the lower surface of the aluminum alloy panel.

[0012] Preferably, a spring is provided on one side of the fourth hinge.

[0013] Preferably, the aluminum alloy panel is made of high-strength aluminum alloy.

[0014] Preferably, the base includes a base plate and four side plates disposed around the perimeter of the base plate. The base plate and the four side plates together form a base frame. Multiple partitions are disposed inside the base frame, and the partitions together with the base frame form multiple water collection tanks.

[0015] Preferably, the distance between two adjacent partitions 131 is 110 mm.

[0016] Preferably, when the self-floating plate is closed on the base, the plurality of EVA foam boards are located in the water collection tank.

The terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, or foregoing drawings of this application are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a particular order.

[0028] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of this application. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0029] This utility model embodiment provides an automatic water-blocking device, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, it includes: multiple water-blocking panels 100 connected in sequence; each water-blocking panel 100 includes: a base 101, the base 101 is provided with a water collection trough 102, the front end of the base 101 is provided with multiple water inlets 103, the rear end of the base 101 is connected to a self-floating plate 105 through a first hinge 104, the self-floating plate 105 can rotate around the first hinge 104 under the action of buoyancy, at least one hinge mechanism 106 is provided in the middle of the self-floating plate 105, the other end of the hinge mechanism 106 is connected to the front end of the base 101; the hinge mechanism 106 includes three sequentially connected connecting rods 116, two adjacent connecting rods 116 are connected by a second hinge 126, the front end of the base 101 is connected to the connecting rods 116 by a third hinge 136, and the self-floating plate 105 is connected to the connecting rods 116 by a fourth hinge 146.

[0030] In specific implementation, the self-floating plate 105 includes an aluminum alloy panel 115 and multiple EVA foam boards 125 disposed on the lower surface of the aluminum alloy panel 115. The EVA foam boards 125 have stronger buoyancy, are corrosion-resistant, and have a long service life. The hinge mechanism 106 can achieve an unfolding angle of 0-80° and will not get stuck when the self-floating plate 105 is opened and closed.

[0031] This automatic flood barrier can be installed at the entrances and exits of underground parking lots, or used for urban flood prevention and river embankment protection. When the self-floating plate 105 is not open, it functions as a speed bump. Once rainwater is collected in the collection trough, the self-floating plate opens upwards under buoyancy, forming a flood barrier. This flood barrier can automatically adjust its height according to water level fluctuations, requiring no manual operation. It effectively blocks floods and waterlogging, improving the timeliness and effectiveness of flood control, reducing manpower input, and lowering the risk of property damage.

The partitions 131 also serve as reinforcing ribs, and the distance between two adjacent partitions 131 is 110mm. Since the minimum thickness of a car tire is 160mm, no matter how a car drives over the device, it will rest on two partitions 131, preventing the base 101 from collapsing.

[0035] In practice, when the self-floating plate 105 is covered on the base 101, the plurality of EVA foam boards 125 are located in the water collection tank 102.

[0036] In practice, mounting holes 141 are provided on both adjacent side plates 121.

[0037] In practice, the base 101 is made of 201 stainless steel.

[0038] In specific implementation, a rubber sealing gasket (not shown in the figure) is provided on the lower surface of the base 101. The base 101 is tightly fitted to the ground by a clamping device, and an elastic sealing strip 107 is provided between two adjacent water-blocking panels 100. The rubber sealing gasket and the elastic sealing strip 107 can prevent water from leaking from the bottom and sides. The elastic sealing strip 107 provided on the base 101 is seamless, forming an overall seal.

[0039] In summary, this utility model discloses an automatic water-blocking device that can automatically adjust the water-blocking height according to the rise and fall of the water level, eliminating the need for manual operation. It effectively blocks floods and waterlogging, improving the timeliness and effectiveness of water blocking, reducing manpower input, and lowering the risk of property loss.
