Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of rainwater storage tank, in particular to a high-efficiency and environment-friendly rainwater storage tank. BACKGROUND

[0002] When the city is raining, the runoff is often increased, and rainwater and sewage often converge, increasing the burden of the urban drainage network and sewage network. Especially in the early stage of rainfall, the initial rain contains a large amount of pollutants, and if the initial rain is directly discharged into the natural water body, it will cause serious pollution to the water environment, so it is necessary to add rainwater storage tank and other facilities to adjust and treat rainwater of different water quality. In the urban drainage system in China, rainwater storage tanks are increasingly widely used.

[0003] However, after the initial rainwater entering the rainwater storage tank is stored for a period of time, a large amount of sediment will be deposited at the bottom of the tank, and the bottom of the tank needs to be cleaned in time after the sewage is discharged. In the prior art, a water pipe is generally used on the ground to flush the bottom of the rainwater storage tank, but this flushing method has two problems: first, a water pipe needs to be used to introduce water source again to flush the bottom of the tank, and second, the bottom of the tank is flushed on the ground, which is time-consuming and laborious and has low cleanliness. In addition, during the flushing process, due to the high distance between the water pipe and the bottom of the tank, dead angles are easily generated during flushing, the bottom of the rainwater storage tank cannot be flushed clean, and the deposited sediment at the bottom of the tank will be very difficult to remove after being hardened. SUMMARY

[0004] In order to clean the rainwater storage tank, the present application provides a high-efficiency and environment-friendly rainwater storage tank.

[0005] The high-efficiency and environment-friendly rainwater storage tank provided by the present application adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] By using the above technical solution, before flushing the bottom of the storage tank, the deposited sediment hardened at the bottom is removed by using the cleaning shovel, and then the storage tank is washed, so that the rainwater storage tank can be easily cleaned.

[0008] Preferably, the cleaning shovel is provided with a cleaning surface, and an included angle between the cleaning surface and the bottom surface of the tank body is an obtuse angle.

[0009] By using the above technical solution, the cleaning surface is an inclined surface, which is convenient for removing the deposited sediment hardened at the bottom of the tank.

The upper end of the cleaning shovel is slidably connected to the connecting rod and the sliding direction of the cleaning shovel is vertical.

[0011] By adopting the above-mentioned technical solution, the vertical sliding of the cleaning shovel allows it to contact the bottom surface of the pool, while the horizontal sliding of the connecting rod drives the cleaning shovel to remove the hardened sediment at the bottom of the pool, facilitating the cleaning of the bottom surface of the pool.

[0012] Preferably, the cleaning assembly further includes a spring, the lower end of the connecting rod is provided with a mounting groove, the spring is disposed in the mounting groove, the upper end of the cleaning shovel is embedded in the mounting groove, one end of the spring is connected to the bottom of the mounting groove, and the other end of the spring is connected to the upper end of the cleaning shovel.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the spring ensures that the cleaning shovel always contacts the bottom surface of the pool during the sliding process, making it easier to clean the hardened material deposited at the bottom of the pool.

The rotating shaft drives the gear to rotate, causing the rack to slide. During the sliding of the rack, it drives the cleaning shovel to clean the hardened material at the bottom of the pool.

[0016] Preferably, it also includes a pull rope, one end of which is wound around the outer circumference of the rotating shaft, and the other end of which is connected to the end of the baffle door away from the water storage chamber.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotation of the shaft causes the rope to shorten and pull up the gate, opening the flushing port to release water from the water storage chamber to clean the pool. The use of the pull rope makes it easy to control the opening and closing of the gate.

[0018] Preferably, the height of the bottom surface of the pool decreases as it moves away from the barrier.

[0052] The implementation principle of a high-efficiency and environmentally friendly rainwater storage tank in this application embodiment is as follows: Rainwater collected on rainy days enters the feed pipe 21, is filtered by the screen 31, and flows into the distribution channel 1114 through the inlet 112. Due to the obstruction of the weir gate 41, the initial rainwater cannot enter the later storage chamber 1113. Instead, the initial rainwater enters the initial storage chamber 1111 through the inlet 112, causing the water level in the initial storage chamber 1111 to rise. This causes the float valve 42 to close the outlet 331. At this time, the rainwater flows to the later storage chamber 1113. After a period of time, the water level in the later storage chamber 1113 reaches the third outlet 118, thus storing the rainwater. Water is discharged into the river. Since the inner diameter of the third outlet 118 is smaller than the inner diameter of the feed pipe 21, the water level in the storage chamber 1113 will continue to rise. After the rain stops, the rainwater in the storage chamber 1111 will be discharged from the first outlet 116 to the sewage treatment center. The storage chamber 1113 will continue to release water until the water level drops below the height of the third outlet 118. At this time, the pump 84 will be started to pump the remaining rainwater into the receiving chamber 51. The drive cylinder 86 will drive the control door 87 to move upward and open the outlet 331. The drive motor will drive the rotating shaft 71 to rotate, so that the gate 6 can rotate and the cleaning component 8 can slide to clean the bottom of the pool.

[0053] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
