Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of bridge drainage, and in particular to a compartment-type high-efficiency bridge deck drainage system for long and large urban bridges. Background Art

[0002] Bridge drainage is an important component of bridge accessories. Perfect bridge drainage facilities can ensure bridge deck traffic safety and improve bridge durability. At present, with the improvement of environmental awareness and landscape requirements, it has become a widely accepted consensus that rainwater from bridge decks should not be discharged directly into rivers but should be discharged in an organized manner into municipal rainwater facilities. However, for long and large bridges across rivers, the commonly used water collection pipe drainage and side ditch drainage are both inefficient. In the face of heavy rain and other weather conditions, rainwater from the bridge deck cannot be discharged quickly, which will lead to water accumulation on the bridge, thereby reducing the bridge's traffic capacity and forming a water film on the bridge deck that affects driving safety. Therefore, in order to ensure efficient and rapid drainage of bridges and reduce the adverse effects of accumulated water on driving safety, it is necessary to rethink and design bridge drainage facilities and make further improvements. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a compartment-type efficient bridge deck drainage system for long urban bridges to solve the problem of insufficient bridge drainage function.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a compartment-type, efficient bridge deck drainage system for long urban bridges, characterized by comprising drainage compartments located within the sidewalks on both sides of the bridge and extending along the length of the bridge, a plurality of water inlets provided inside the drainage compartments and spaced apart along the length of the bridge, and a movable cover plate provided above the drainage compartments. The drainage system is composed of the drainage compartments, the water inlets, and the movable cover plate. The present invention has a reasonable structure, can effectively utilize the internal space of the sidewalks, and does not affect the overall structure of the bridge or the landscape.

[0005] The drainage bin includes the first drainage sub-bin, the second drainage sub-bin, and the third drainage sub-bin. The first drainage sub-bin, the second drainage sub-bin, and the third drainage sub-bin are rectangular channels arranged side by side along the same longitudinal slope and the ends are independently connected to the municipal rainwater inspection well. The rainwater on the bridge deck is drained to the municipal rainwater pipeline network to avoid pollution of the river water under the bridge or adverse effects on the traffic on the road under the bridge, effectively avoiding the formation of water film on the road surface, thereby reducing the probability of accidents.

[0006] Furthermore, the first drainage sub-chamber is arranged outside the drainage chamber, and is used to drain rainwater from the upstream bridge section on the same longitudinal slope of the bridge. The number of water inlets corresponding to the first drainage sub-chamber is 3-5;

[0007] The second drainage compartment is located in the middle of the drainage compartment and is used to drain rainwater from the midstream road surface on the same longitudinal slope of the bridge.

[0008] The third drainage compartment is located inside the drainage compartment and is used to drain rainwater from the road surface downstream of the same longitudinal slope as the bridge;

[0009] The width of the first drainage compartment, the second drainage compartment and the third drainage compartment is between 15-25cm;

[0010] The present invention adopts this progressive structural layout type, and can discharge rainwater from the bridge deck in sections, in an orderly and rapid manner through the first drainage compartment, the second drainage compartment and the third drainage compartment, thereby avoiding the phenomenon of water backflow to the water inlet after the downstream drainage pipe is full.

[0011] Furthermore, the inner walls of the first drainage compartment, the second drainage compartment and the third drainage compartment are plastered with waterproof mortar and then coated with waterproof material, which can avoid water damage to the bridge structure caused by rainwater leakage and protect the main structure of the bridge.

[0012] Furthermore, the water inlet includes a water inlet curb and a filter grate. The water inlet curb is a 100 cm long curb made of concrete or natural stone. The filter grate is a vertical grate made of ductile iron or stainless steel. The filter grate is fixed to the water inlet outside the water inlet curb.

[0013] Furthermore, the water intakes are correspondingly connected to the first drainage sub-compartment, the second drainage sub-compartment, and the third drainage sub-compartment, wherein the spacing between the water intakes connected to the first drainage sub-compartment is 12 to 15 meters, the spacing between the water intakes connected to the second drainage sub-compartment is 10 to 12 meters, and the spacing between the water intakes connected to the third drainage sub-compartment is 8 to 10 meters. The number of water intakes connecting the first drainage sub-compartment, the second drainage sub-compartment, and the third drainage sub-compartment increases successively; the "sparse at the top and dense at the bottom" water intake arrangement pattern can discharge rainwater that is not discharged into the water intake from the upstream bridge deck but flows downstream at the downstream water intake, thereby improving the overall drainage capacity of the bridge deck.

[0014] Furthermore, the movable cover is composed of a concrete precast slab, a leveling layer and a road slab pavement layer arranged in sequence from bottom to top. A stainless steel frame is provided on the outside of the concrete precast slab. The leveling layer is M10 cement mortar. The road slab pavement layer is permeable bricks or stone bricks laid in sequence. Open ear holes are provided at the four corners of the top surface of the stainless steel frame. The use of this openable cover facilitates the later maintenance of the drainage compartment. By setting the same pavement layer as the sidewalk area without drainage compartments, the overall uniformity and beauty of the bridge sidewalk are ensured.

[0015] Furthermore, the inner side of the filter screen has an anti-blocking structure, which includes a connecting block, a movable shaft, a slide bar A, a slide bar B, a garbage collection box, a connecting block, and a filter screen;

[0016] The connecting block is located on the inner side of the filter screen and is welded to it. The end of the connecting block is embedded in the top of the slide rod A and is connected and limited by a movable shaft to achieve rotation connection. The movable shaft enables the slide rod A to realize the linkage of the garbage collection box.

[0017] The top of the garbage collection box and the connecting block are an integrally formed structure, and the bottom of the slide bar B is provided with a connecting shaft for rotation. The garbage collection box can realize angle adjustment through the connecting shaft, so that the bottom of the garbage collection box is always kept parallel to the ground, thereby blocking the garbage attached to the rainwater entering the water collection port to avoid clogging of the water collection port. The connecting shaft passes through the connecting block and is rotatably connected to the garbage collection box. The top of the slide bar B is provided with an integrally formed slider, and the two ends of the slider are respectively fitted on both sides of the slide bar A and slidably connected thereto, and a plurality of limit blocks for positioning are fixed near the positions of the two ends of the slide bar A. When the filter grate is removed to clean the garbage inside, the filter grate is raised and the slider slides downward, so that the total length of the slider B and the slider A is extended, so that the garbage collection box is always fitted on the ground, and the garbage inside the garbage collection box is prevented from falling when the filter grate is lifted, and the slider is blocked by the limit block when it slides to the position of the end of the slide bar A to prevent the slider from derailing.

[0018] The filter is located on the side of the garbage collection box for filtering road garbage, and a plurality of drainage grooves for filtering are provided at the bottom of the garbage collection box.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] 1. The present invention has a reasonable structure, high drainage capacity, and convenient construction and maintenance. It diverts rainwater from the bridge deck to the municipal rainwater pipe network, thus preventing rainwater from being directly discharged into rivers and polluting water bodies, or adversely affecting traffic on the road under the bridge.

[0021] 2. By setting up multiple drainage compartments, rainwater on the bridge deck is drained in an orderly and segmented manner, which greatly improves the drainage efficiency of the bridge and effectively eliminates the impact of water on the bridge surface on driving safety. At the same time, it prevents rainwater from stagnating and seeping into the bridge to cause damage, thereby extending the life of the bridge.

[0022] 3. By setting up an openable cover, the drainage compartment can be quickly desilted, unblocked and other maintenance work can be carried out, reducing the subsequent maintenance costs and pressure. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
