Description

Technical fields: This utility model belongs to the field of flood control equipment technology, and more specifically, it relates to a hydrodynamic lifting flood and wave-breaking wall with a sealing component. Background technology: In recent years, global warming has led to more frequent extreme weather events, significantly increasing the intensity and frequency of floods. Traditional flood control measures, such as sandbags and fixed flood walls, have the following shortcomings: Sandbag / earth-rock dams: rely on manual construction, are inefficient, lack strength, and are difficult to reuse.

[0001] Fixed flood walls: occupy space, affect urban landscape and traffic, and cannot flexibly cope with different water levels.

[0002] Underground drainage systems are prone to overload during extreme rainfall, which may cause backflow.

[0003] Manual monitoring and response: Early warnings are delayed, making it difficult to achieve rapid emergency response.

[0004] Currently, many automatic floodgates have appeared on the market. These floodgates can be installed flat in the corresponding position. When floods come, the gate can automatically flip up to achieve a rapid response and block the flood. When in normal use, the gate is laid flat downwards, which does not affect vehicle passage and can play a good role in flood control.

[0005] However, it also has some drawbacks: Insufficient structural strength: Heavy machinery is heavy and will impact and squeeze the floodgate when passing through it. Although the pressure and impact resistance can be enhanced by strengthening the structural strength of the gate, the overall installation environment limits the space and area required if the gate structure is too thick, and the installation and maintenance costs will also be higher. Therefore, the actual design strength and structural thickness of the gate are also limited. As a result, the gate will be damaged after long-term use.

[0006] Poor scalability: It lacks modular design and is difficult to adapt to long-distance flood control needs.

[0007] Regarding patent applications, the inventor found patents such as 2022208365121, "An Automatically Floating Dike Wave Wall Structure," and 2021212623297, "A Hydrodynamic Automatic Lifting Flood Prevention System." Although these patents have the function of automatic lifting, their disadvantage is that they do not consider the sealing structure, and their poor sealing performance leads to poor flood prevention effect. Utility Model Content: To address the aforementioned problems in the prior art, this utility model provides a hydrodynamic lifting flood and wave barrier wall with a sealing component that is simple in structure, easy to install, has a fast response, and can be infinitely expanded.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: The hydrodynamic lifting flood and wave barrier with sealing components includes a wall body, pre-embedded components, a water-retaining plate box assembly, a limiting component, and a sealing component that cooperate with each other. The wall body forms a U-shaped groove in the middle. The pre-embedded components are embedded on the top surfaces of both sides of the U-shaped groove, ensuring that the top surfaces are flush with the ground after grouting. The water-retaining plate box assembly is placed inside the U-shaped groove. A sealing component is located on one inner wall of the pre-embedded component, and a limiting component with a sloped bottom is located on the other side. A second slope is formed at the interface between the water-retaining plate box assembly and the limiting component. When the water-retaining plate box assembly rises, the first and second slopes press together, creating pressure that tightens the back of the water-retaining plate box assembly against the sealing component, forming a seal. The top surface of the limiting component is flush with the top surface of the water-retaining plate box assembly and also flush with the road surface, ensuring vehicle passage when not in operation. Furthermore, the baffle box assembly includes a baffle box and a buoyancy box that cooperate with each other. The baffle box and the buoyancy box are fixed together and placed in a U-shaped groove. The outer side of the buoyancy box forms a second inclined surface that cooperates with the first inclined surface of the limiting assembly.

[0009] Furthermore, the top surface of the baffle box is provided with a cover plate one, and the top surface of the limiting component is provided with a cover plate two. The top surfaces of cover plate one and cover plate two are flush with the road surface, and a hole is opened on cover plate two to allow water to enter the U-shaped structure groove through the hole.

[0010] Furthermore, multiple baffle box components are sequentially connected and placed in a U-shaped groove. Each box has a semi-hinged sleeve on both sides. Adjacent boxes are spliced ​​together, and the semi-hinged sleeves are connected by a pin in the middle for easy disassembly. A seal is provided in the gap at the connection between adjacent baffle box components to seal the connection.

[0011] Furthermore, a U-shaped groove plate is embedded at the end of the wall, and a sealing element is provided at the joint between the water baffle box assembly and the U-shaped groove plate. Furthermore, the pre-embedded component consists of two L-shaped folded plates with a reinforcing plate spaced between them. The plate is pre-embedded on the top surface of both sides of the wall to ensure that the sidewalls of the folded plates are flush with the sidewalls of the U-shaped groove.

[0012] Furthermore, the sealing assembly consists of two sealing strips, one upper and one lower, fixed to the side wall of the embedded plate.

[0013] This invention has the following advantages over the prior art: 1. An additional sealing component is added. The sealing component adopts a pressing structure with inclined surfaces and compression, which makes the sealing effect better and thus the flood prevention effect is better.

[0014] 2. Fully automatic operation: It responds automatically when the water level rises or falls, without the need for manual intervention.

[0015] 3. Ultra-high strength design: The vertical lifting structure has a cover plate that can withstand the crushing force of a vehicle weighing more than 30 tons, and the lifting structure is not affected.

[0016] 4. Breakthrough in height: Through the design of the tiered buoyancy chamber, it can theoretically support unlimited height (already achieved above 2 meters). 5. Unlimited expansion: Modular splicing allows for the creation of flood walls of any length.

[0017] 6. Rapid response: It only takes 30 seconds from the water level being touched to the point of full rise.

[0018] The hydrodynamic lifting flood and wave barrier includes a wall body 1, a pre-embedded component 2, a water-retaining plate box assembly 3, a limiting component 4, and a sealing component 5 that cooperate with each other. The wall body 1 forms a U-shaped groove 11 in the middle. The pre-embedded component 2 is pre-embedded on the top surfaces of both sides of the U-shaped groove 11, ensuring that the top surface is flush with the ground after grouting. The water-retaining plate box assembly 3 is placed inside the U-shaped groove 11. A sealing component 5 is provided on one inner wall of the pre-embedded component 2, and a limiting component 4 with a bottom slope 41 is provided on the other side. A second slope 31 is formed at the interface between the water-retaining plate box assembly 3 and the limiting component 4. When the water-retaining plate box assembly 3 rises, the first slope 41 and the second slope 31 adhere to each other, creating pressure that makes the back of the water-retaining plate box assembly and the sealing component 5 increasingly tighter, forming a seal. The top surface of the limiting component 4 is flush with the top surface of the water-retaining plate box assembly 3 and also flush with the road surface, ensuring vehicle passage when not in operation. In a specific embodiment, the baffle box assembly 3 includes a baffle box 32 and a buoyancy box 33 that cooperate with each other. The baffle box 32 and the buoyancy box 33 are fixed together and placed in the U-shaped groove 11. The outer side of the buoyancy box 32 forms a second inclined surface 31 that cooperates with the first inclined surface 41 of the limiting assembly 4.

[0019] Furthermore, the top surface of the baffle box 32 is provided with a cover plate 34, and the top surface of the limiting component 4 is provided with a cover plate 42. The top surfaces of the cover plate 34 and the cover plate 42 are flush with the road surface, and the cover plate 42 has a hole to allow water to enter the U-shaped structure groove 11 through the hole.

[0020] Furthermore, multiple baffle box components 3 can be sequentially connected and placed in the U-shaped groove 11. Each box 3 has a semi-hinged sleeve 6 on both sides. Adjacent boxes are spliced ​​together, and the semi-hinged sleeves are connected in the middle by a pin 7 for easy disassembly. A sealing element 8 (which can be Y-type or V-type) is provided in the gap at the connection between adjacent baffle box components.

[0021] A U-shaped groove plate 12 is embedded at one end of the wall 1, and a sealing element 9 (which can be Y-type or V-type) is provided at the joint between the water baffle box assembly 3 and the U-shaped groove plate 12. Furthermore, the embedded component 2 consists of two L-shaped folded plates, with a reinforcing plate 21 spaced between them. It is embedded in the top surface of both sides of the wall 1 to ensure that the sidewalls of the folded plates are flush with the sidewalls of the U-shaped groove. The sealing component 5 consists of two sealing strips, one above the other, fixed to the sidewalls of the embedded plate.

[0022] Key implementation steps of this utility model during construction: The trench for installing the rising flood control wall was pre-constructed according to the civil engineering drawings, using a high-strength concrete structure. Pre-embedded components were installed on the upper part of the trench near the ground. Sealing strips were embedded in the fixing frame of the pre-embedded components on the backwater side, and inclined stop brackets for the limiting components were pre-embedded on the water-facing side. After completion, the main equipment was installed on site. 1. Fix the sealing strip to the backwater side of the pre-embedded component, and fix the limiting component to the water-facing bracket; 2. Place the baffle box assembly into the U-shaped groove; 3. When the water level rises, water enters the U-shaped channel through the gap. The baffle box assembly floats up and cooperates with the limiting assembly. Due to the mutual compression of the two inclined surfaces, the side wall of the box is pressed against the sealing strip to achieve sealing and limiting.

[0023] 4. When the water level drops, the baffle automatically descends and resets under gravity.

[0024] This utility model adds a sealing component, which adopts a pressing structure with inclined surface and compression, so as to improve the sealing effect and thus the flood prevention effect.

[0025] The upper embedded component of this utility model is embedded in the concrete wall, resulting in a robust and impact-resistant structure. The liftable water-baffle box assembly utilizes a high-strength aluminum alloy frame combined with an impact-resistant panel.

[0026] Independent, detachable buoyancy tank: Made of 304 stainless steel, the tank is individually welded and sealed. Modular interface: A splicing design consisting of quick-release bolts and sealing strips.

[0027] Adopting an independent and detachable buoyancy box design, it has successfully broken through the traditional 1-meter height limit of floodgates by designing buoyancy boxes of different heights. Currently, it has achieved a water blocking height of more than 2 meters, and theoretically supports unlimited height expansion.

[0028] Automatic reset system: When the water level drops, the lifting baffle will automatically reset due to its own weight, requiring no manual intervention.

[0029] Ground-based ultra-strong compressive strength structure.

[0030] Rapid Response Mechanism: An optimized design of the buoyancy chamber's inlet channel, combined with a low-friction guide rail system, allows the baffle to rise fully from the water level in just 30 seconds, a response speed more than four times faster than traditional structures (which require over two minutes). A specially designed flow channel accelerates water flow into the buoyancy chamber, ensuring a timely response in the event of a sudden flood.

[0031] Unlimited expansion design: The modular interface uses military-grade quick-release bolts for connection, combined with EPDM rubber sealing strips. Each standard module (2m in length) can be assembled on-site within 10 minutes. The strength of the splice is completely consistent with that of the single unit, and the sealing performance meets the requirement of no leakage under 1 meter of water pressure for 24 hours, truly realizing the unlimited length expansion of the flood wall.
