Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of outdoor landscape design technology, and in particular to a landscape seat that can regulate the microclimate of a site. Background Technology

[0002] The most basic function of landscape seating is to provide people with a comfortable outdoor resting space. However, many landscape seating options currently prioritize aesthetics while neglecting these fundamental functional requirements, especially in summer. High temperatures and direct sunlight discourage people from leaving their homes, and even landscape seating with added sunshades can feel unbearably hot. Therefore, is it possible to create landscape seating that addresses the microclimate of the site, adjusting airflow, humidity, and temperature, and incorporating its own ventilation function to truly create a comfortable outdoor space for relaxation even in the height of summer? Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a landscape seating system that can regulate the microclimate of a site.

[0004] The specific technical solution is as follows:

[0005] A type of landscape seating that can regulate the microclimate of a site, including

[0006] The bench has an internal water storage tank; and

[0007] The air supply mechanism includes a frame, a partition, and an air supply component. The frame is mounted on the stool and covers the outside of the water storage tank. The partition surrounds the frame and has multiple ventilation holes. The air supply component is located inside the frame and is used to draw hot air from the outside of the frame into the frame. The air supply component then pushes the hot air towards the water storage tank. The water in the water storage tank cools the air. The cooled air is then discharged outside the frame through the ventilation holes around the frame.

[0008] Optionally, the stool includes a base layer and a surface layer disposed on the base layer, wherein the base layer is formed by casting C15 watertight concrete and the surface layer is formed by casting porous concrete.

[0009] Optionally, the stool is provided with a drain hole for draining excess water from the water storage tank.

[0010] Optionally, a top plate is provided above the frame, and a solar photovoltaic panel is provided on the top plate. A battery is connected inside the solar photovoltaic panel, and the battery is electrically connected to the air supply component.

[0011] Optionally, a water collection trough for collecting rainwater is provided on the top plate.

[0012] Optionally, the water collection tank has an outlet hole on the side near the water storage tank for draining water into the water storage tank.

[0013] Optionally, the partition is made of PVC material.

[0014] Optionally, the partition is fixed to the frame using PVC plastic adhesive.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0016] The landscape seating provided by this invention can regulate the microclimate of a site. At night, when water vapor in the air comes into contact with porous concrete, it condenses into water droplets due to the temperature difference. The water droplets and water vapor enter the water-tight concrete's water storage tank through the pores. In case of rain, the top water collection tank can guide some rainwater into the water storage tank for rapid replenishment, while excess water in the water storage tank flows out through the drain hole. During the day, because of the low heat transfer coefficient of PVC, the temperature inside the device is lower than the outside. The solar photovoltaic panel powers the air supply component, which draws in hot air from above into the cold cavity of the device, cooling the air once. Then, the air supply component pushes the air towards the water storage tank, where the water cools the air a second time. Finally, the air, after being cooled twice, is blown out of the cavity through the surrounding ventilation holes, regulating the microclimate near the seat and increasing the airflow of cool air.

[0025] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, but this is not intended to limit the scope of the invention.

[0026] The landscape seating that can adjust the microclimate of the site provided in this invention is described in reference to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 ,include:

[0027] Stool 1, with an internal water storage tank 10; and

[0028] The air supply mechanism 2 includes a frame 21, a partition 22, and an air supply component 23. The frame 21 is mounted on the seat 1 and covers the outside of the water storage tank 10. The partition 22 surrounds the frame 21 and has multiple ventilation holes 220. The air supply component 23 is located inside the frame 21 and is used to draw hot air from the outside of the frame 21 into the frame 21. Then, the air supply component 23 pushes the hot air towards the water storage tank 10. The water in the water storage tank 10 cools the air. The cooled air is then discharged to the outside of the frame 21 through the ventilation holes 220 around it.

[0029] In this embodiment, the air supply component 23 adopts an aluminum alloy energy-saving industrial fan, but other devices that can achieve the above-mentioned air supply function can also be used, all of which are within the protection scope of this application; and the frame 21 is as follows Figure 1 The hyperboloid shape described above can be used for sun shading, save on construction materials, and is also aesthetically pleasing; therefore, the present invention takes into account multiple functions, including the ornamental value of the landscape installation, the resting function of the outdoor seating, and the function of regulating the microclimate.

[0030] In this invention, the stool 1 includes a base layer 11 and a surface layer 12 disposed on the base layer 11. The base layer 11 is formed by pouring C15 watertight concrete, and the surface layer 12 is formed by pouring porous concrete. This design allows water vapor in the air to condense into water droplets when it comes into contact with the porous concrete at night due to the temperature difference. The water droplets and water vapor enter the water storage tank 10 in the watertight concrete through the pores.

[0031] In addition, a drain hole 100 is provided on the stool 1 to drain excess water from the water storage tank 10, so as to prevent water from overflowing from the water storage tank 10 onto the stool 1, which would make the stool 1 inconvenient to use.

[0032] A top plate 211 is installed above the frame 21, and a solar photovoltaic panel 212 is installed on the top plate 211. The solar photovoltaic panel 212 is connected to a battery, and the battery is electrically connected to the air supply component 23. This eliminates the need to provide additional power to the air supply component 23, thus achieving energy saving and environmental protection. Therefore, the device can operate without manual intervention and has strong sustainability. The water in the water storage tank 10 can be replenished every night by condensate or rainwater. During the day, the energy-saving fan is automatically started by the power of the solar photovoltaic panel 212.

[0033] The top plate 211 has a pre-reserved water collection trough 213 for collecting rainwater. The water collection trough 213 has an outlet side hole 214 for draining water into the water storage tank 10 on the side near the water storage tank 10. When the water inside the water storage tank 10 is sufficient, the rainwater in the water collection trough 213 can reach the water storage tank 10 through the outlet side hole 214, and the water in the water storage tank 10 can be replenished by the rainwater.

[0034] The partition 22 is made of PVC material. PVC has a low heat transfer coefficient, which makes the temperature inside the air supply mechanism 2 lower than that outside. The partition 22 is fixed to the frame 21 with special PVC plastic glue.

[0035] The construction steps for landscape seating that can regulate the microclimate of a site, provided by this invention, are as follows:

[0036] (1) Make the base 11 template for the bench 1. The base 11 is a cylinder with a radius of 1200mm, a height of 350mm, and a corner radius of 300mm. After the template is made, pour C15 water-tight concrete and reserve a groove with a radius of 700mm and a depth of 100mm in the center as a water storage tank 10.

[0037] (2) Construct the template for the surface layer 12 of the stool 1. The surface layer 12 is a cylinder with a radius of 1200mm, a height of 150mm, and a corner radius of 150mm. A drainage hole 100 with a diameter of 50mm is reserved on the side to drain excess water from the water storage tank 10. After the template is constructed, pour porous concrete and use a concrete adhesive to connect the porous concrete surface layer 12 to the watertight concrete base layer 11.

[0038] (3) Make the frame 21 of the air supply mechanism 2. The frame 21 is made of galvanized steel pipe with a specification of De100mm×3mm. The frame 21 is a double-curved shape with a height of 2400mm. The bottom is a circle with a radius of 700mm, the top is a circle with a radius of 2200mm, and the thinnest part of the curve is a circle with a radius of 500mm.

[0039] (4) An aluminum alloy energy-saving industrial fan is installed inside the frame 21. The fan diameter is 950mm and the power is 50w.

[0040] (5) A solar photovoltaic panel 212 with a radius of 1400mm is installed on the top of the frame 21. The panel is equipped with a 30W monocrystalline silicon solar cell with a diameter of 520mm*410mm. The solar photovoltaic panel 212 is connected to the power cord of the aluminum alloy energy-saving industrial fan and supplies it with power.

[0041] (6) A 100mm wide, 40mm stainless steel water collection trough 213 is installed around the top of a circular galvanized steel pipe for collecting and utilizing rainwater.

[0042] (7) A 20mm diameter outlet hole 214 is drilled on the side of the top circular galvanized steel pipe near the water collection tank 213 so that the rainwater in the water collection tank 213 flows into the seat water storage tank 10 and the excess rainwater in the water storage tank 10 is discharged through the seat water outlet.

[0043] (8) To make the partition 22, you can also use PVC short pipes with a depth of 100mm. Assemble the PVC short pipes between the steel frame 21 and connect the short pipes with PVC plastic special glue. Fill all the frames 21 with PVC short pipes in the same way so that the entire air supply mechanism 2 forms an enclosed structure.

[0044] After completing the above steps, the outdoor chair can begin operation. (Refer to...) Figure 3At night, when water vapor in the air comes into contact with the porous concrete, it condenses into water droplets due to the temperature difference. The water droplets and water vapor enter the water storage tank 10 in the watertight concrete through the pores. In case of rain, the water collection tank 213 at the top can guide some rainwater into the water storage tank 10 for rapid water replenishment, while excess water in the water storage tank 10 flows out through the drain hole 100. During the day, because of the low heat transfer coefficient of PVC, the temperature inside the device is lower than that outside. The solar photovoltaic panel 212 powers the aluminum alloy energy-saving industrial fan. The industrial fan can draw in hot air from above into the cold cavity of the device to cool the air once. Then the fan pushes the air towards the water storage tank 10, where the water cools the air a second time. Finally, the air that has undergone secondary cooling is blown out of the cavity through the short PVC pipes around it, regulating the microclimate near the stool 1 and increasing the airflow of cool air.

[0045] This invention is energy-saving and environmentally friendly. Apart from a simple industrial fan, it requires no mechanical equipment such as condensers or converters, and regulates the surrounding microclimate through a relatively primitive and simple method. This invention also takes into account multiple functions, including the aesthetic appeal of the landscape installation, the resting function of the outdoor seating, and the function of regulating the microclimate. In addition, this invention is highly reproducible, quick to produce results, and due to the design and positioning of the landscape seating, it can be placed in multiple locations within the site, and has a more significant regulating effect compared to other microclimate regulation devices.

[0046] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the implementation and protection scope of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should realize that any equivalent substitutions and obvious changes made based on the description and illustrations of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
