Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of artificial landscapes, and in particular to an artificial waterfall system and a building. Background Art
[0002] Artificial waterfalls are a special type of dynamic water feature. Water is pumped through pipes using a pump. The water enters a water storage device located high up in the building from the pipe's outlet, where it then falls down through the water storage device to form a waterfall. However, as the water is pumped up to the high level and enters the water storage device, it concentrates at the pipe's outlet. This creates excessive pressure in the water storage device, causing splashing and the generation of numerous bubbles at the outlet. Furthermore, the water is unevenly distributed as it flows from the water storage device and falls to the lower level, affecting the waterfall's aesthetic appeal. Summary of the Invention
[0003] In view of this, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide an artificial waterfall system and a building, which can avoid the problem of uneven distribution of water during its fall to a lower level due to excessive local pressure of water in the water storage device. The technical solution is as follows:
[0004] In a first aspect, an artificial waterfall system is provided, the artificial waterfall system comprising a water storage structure, a water pump, and a first pipeline;
[0005] The water storage structure has a first water storage area and a second water storage area, the first water storage area and the second water storage area are connected through a plurality of overflow holes evenly distributed in the horizontal direction, and the second water storage area has a strip-shaped opening extending in the horizontal direction;
[0006] The overflow position of the overflow hole is higher than the lowest position of the first water storage area, and when the water level in the first water storage area is higher than the overflow position of the overflow hole, the water in the first water storage area flows out from the overflow hole; the overflow position of the strip-shaped opening is higher than the lowest position of the second water storage area, and when the water level in the second water storage area is higher than the overflow position of the strip-shaped opening, the water in the second water storage area flows out from the strip-shaped opening;
[0007] The water pumping end is connected to the water source, and the water outlet end is connected to the first water storage area through the first pipe.
[0008] In one possible implementation, the water storage structure further has a diversion area, the second water storage area and the diversion area are connected through the strip-shaped opening, the diversion area has a horizontal area, and the horizontal area has a plurality of evenly distributed atomization holes, wherein the water in the diversion area flows out from the atomization holes.
[0009] In a possible implementation, the water flowing out of the strip-shaped opening falls at a high position of the inclined region, and the horizontal region is connected to a lowest position of the inclined region.
[0010] In a possible implementation, a height difference between the overflow position of the strip-shaped opening and a highest position of the inclined region is between 135mm and 185mm, an angle of inclination of the inclined region is between 40° and 50°, and a height difference between the highest position and a lowest position of the inclined region is between 75mm and 125mm.
[0011] In a possible implementation, the water guide region is strip-shaped and parallel to the strip-shaped opening.
[0012] In a possible implementation, a line connecting centers of the plurality of atomizing holes is parallel to the strip-shaped opening.
[0013] In a possible implementation, the water inlet of the first pipeline is connected to the water pump, the water outlet is connected to the first water storage region, and the water outlet is located at a position staggered with the overflow hole.
[0014] In a possible implementation, the water inlet of the first pipeline is connected to the water pump, the water outlet is connected to the first water storage region, and a highest position of the water outlet is lower than a lowest position of the overflow hole.
[0015] In a possible implementation, a lowest position of the overflow hole is higher than a lowest position of the strip-shaped opening.
[0016] In a possible implementation, the water inlet of the first pipeline is connected to the water pump, the water outlet is connected to the first water storage region, and a highest position of the water outlet is lower than a lowest position of the overflow hole.
[0017] In the solution disclosed herein, a water pump draws water into the first water storage area through a first pipe. Since the overflow position of the overflow hole is higher than the lowest position of the first water storage area, water will gradually accumulate in the first water storage area. During this process, the water supply pressure is relatively dispersed throughout the entire first water storage area, the water supply pressure decreases, and the bubbles disappear. As the water level in the first water storage area gradually rises, since the overflow holes are evenly distributed in the horizontal direction, the water level in the first water storage area will simultaneously exceed the overflow positions of all the overflow holes, and water will flow evenly from each overflow hole to various positions in the second water storage area. Moreover, since the overflow position of the strip-shaped opening is higher than the lowest position of the second water storage area, the water flowing into the second water storage area will also gradually accumulate, and the pressure of the water at various locations in the second water storage area will be more evenly distributed throughout the second water storage area. Then, since the strip opening extends horizontally, as the water level in the second water storage area exceeds the overflow position of the strip opening, the water in the second water storage area will flow out simultaneously in the direction in which the strip opening extends, so that the water flowing out of the strip opening and falling to a low position can be evenly distributed.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0028] In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present disclosure clearer, the following will further describe the embodiments of the present disclosure in detail with reference to the drawings.
[0029] The present embodiment relates to an artificial waterfall system, as shown in Figure 1 Fig. 1 is a structural schematic diagram of an artificial waterfall system, Figure 2 Fig. 2 is a split structural schematic diagram of an artificial waterfall system, Figure 3 Fig. 3 is a structural schematic diagram of an artificial waterfall system without a cover plate 13, Figure 4 Fig. 4 is a cross-sectional structural schematic diagram of an artificial waterfall system, Figure 5 Fig. 5 is a cross-sectional structural schematic diagram of another artificial waterfall system, Figure 6 Fig. 6 is a structural schematic diagram of a partition 15, Figure 7 Fig. 7 is a structural schematic diagram of a strip-shaped through hole 121.
[0030] Referring to Figure 1 and in combination with Figure 4 Fig. 1, the artificial waterfall system in the present embodiment includes a water storage structure 1, a water pump 2 and a first pipeline 3. The water storage structure 1 is a container for storing water, which can be a separately manufactured box body, for example, a plastic box body or a metal box body that can be used to store water, and can be a structure formed by welding or bolting together multiple separate structural members, or an integrally formed structural member. The water storage structure 1 can also be a water pool or a water tank opened at a high position of a building, for example, a water pool opened at the roof of a house or a water tank opened at the waist of a rockery, and the present embodiment does not exemplify the type of the water storage structure 1.
[0031] Continuing to refer to Figure 1As shown, the water storage structure 1 has a first water storage area 11 and a second water storage area 12. The first and second water storage areas 11 and 12 are connected by a plurality of overflow holes 111 evenly distributed along the horizontal direction. The second water storage area 12 has a strip-shaped opening 121 extending horizontally. The overflow position of the overflow holes 111 is higher than the lowest point of the first water storage area 11. When the water level in the first water storage area 11 exceeds the overflow position of the overflow holes 111, the water in the first water storage area 11 flows out of the overflow holes 111. The overflow position of the strip-shaped opening 121 is higher than the lowest point of the second water storage area 12. When the water level in the second water storage area 12 exceeds the overflow position of the strip-shaped opening 121, the water in the second water storage area 12 flows out of the strip-shaped opening 121. The pumping end of the water pump 2 is connected to a water source, and the outlet end is connected to the first water storage area 11 via a first pipe 3.
[0032] Among them, the water pump 2 can use variable frequency control to save energy, and the water pump head can be selected according to the height of the building and the pipeline loss. The variable frequency control method of the water pump 2 and the selection of the water pump 2 head are existing technologies and are not used as examples in the embodiments of this disclosure.
[0033] As described above, the water pump 2 pumps water into the first water storage area 11 through the first pipe 3. Since the overflow position of the overflow hole 111 is higher than the lowest position of the first water storage area 11, water will gradually accumulate in the first water storage area 11. During this process, the water supply pressure is more evenly distributed throughout the entire first water storage area 11, the water supply pressure drops, and the bubbles disappear.
[0034] As the water level in the first water storage area 11 gradually rises as a whole, since the overflow holes 111 are evenly distributed in the horizontal direction, the water level in the first water storage area 11 will simultaneously exceed the overflow positions of all the overflow holes 111, and the water will flow evenly from the overflow holes 111 to various positions in the second water storage area 12. Moreover, since the overflow position of the strip-shaped opening 121 is higher than the lowest position of the second water storage area 12, the water flowing into the second water storage area 121 will also gradually accumulate, and the water pressure at various locations in the second water storage area 12 will be more evenly distributed throughout the second water storage area 12.
[0035] Then, since the strip opening 121 extends in the horizontal direction, as the water level in the second water storage area 12 exceeds the overflow position of the strip opening 121, the water in the second water storage area 12 will flow out simultaneously in the direction in which the strip opening 121 extends, so that the water flowing out of the strip opening 121 and falling to a low position can be evenly distributed, thereby improving the waterfall effect.
[0036] In one example, the water storage structure 1 also has a diversion area 14, the second water storage area 12 and the diversion area 14 are connected through a strip-shaped opening 121, the diversion area 14 has a horizontal area 142, and the horizontal area 142 has multiple evenly distributed atomization holes 141, wherein the water in the diversion area 14 flows out from the atomization holes 141.
[0037] In this way, the water flowing out of the strip-shaped opening 121 can evenly enter the horizontal area 142 in the guide area 14, and then converge to the multiple atomization holes 141 evenly distributed in the horizontal area 142, and fall to a lower position along the atomization holes 141. Due to the guidance of the water by the atomization holes 141, the water falling to a lower position can form a uniform waterfall effect.
[0038] In one example, to allow water flowing out of the strip-shaped opening 121 to flow into the diversion area 14, the strip-shaped opening 121 can be located directly above the diversion area 14. For example, the strip-shaped opening 121 can be located directly above the horizontal region 142, so that water flowing out of the strip-shaped opening 121 can directly fall into the horizontal region 142. For another example, the strip-shaped opening 121 can be located directly above other areas of the diversion area 14, with the horizontal region 142 located at the lowest position of the diversion area 14. Water flowing out of the strip-shaped opening 121 can first fall into other areas of the diversion area 14 before converging into the horizontal region 142.
[0039] In one example, in order to facilitate water to flow out of the atomization hole 141, the atomization hole 141 is a hole that penetrates vertically in the horizontal area 142. For example, the atomization hole 141 can be a vertically penetrating hole or a tilted penetrating hole.
[0040] The atomization hole 141 may be a rectangular hole, a circular hole, or a square hole. For example, the atomization hole 141 may be a rectangular hole of 2 mm×10 mm, a circular hole with a diameter of 5 mm, or a square hole of 4 mm×4 mm.
[0041] In one example, the diversion area 14 further includes an inclined region 143. Water flowing out of the strip-shaped opening 121 falls at the highest point of the inclined region 143, and the horizontal region 142 connects to the lowest point of the inclined region 143. For example, the highest point of the inclined region 143 is directly below the strip-shaped opening 121. For another example, the middle of the inclined region 143 is directly below the strip-shaped opening 121. The inclined region 143 can be an inclined guide plate located below the strip-shaped opening 121, with the lowest point of the guide plate connected to a horizontal plate as the horizontal region 142. The horizontal plate is evenly distributed with multiple vertical holes serving as the atomization holes 141.
[0042] In this way, the water entering the diversion area 14 from the second water storage area 12 will first fall on the inclined area 143 to be buffered, and then flow from the inclined area 143 to the horizontal area 142, which can avoid the water reaching the horizontal area 142 from splashing and causing uneven water flow and bubbles, thereby avoiding affecting the uniform outflow of water from multiple atomization holes 141.
[0043] In one example, the height difference between the overflow position of the strip-shaped opening 121 and the highest position of the inclined area 143 is between 135 mm and 185 mm, the inclination angle of the inclined area 143 is between 40° and 50°, and the height difference between the highest position and the lowest position of the inclined area 143 is between 75 mm and 125 mm.
[0044] For example, the height difference between the overflow position of the strip opening 121 and the highest position of the inclined area 143 can be 145 mm, 153 mm, or 170 mm. The inclination angle of the inclined area 143 can be 43°, 45°, or 48°. The height difference between the highest position and the lowest position of the inclined area 143 can be 82 mm, 95 mm, or 108 mm. For example, the highest position of the inclined area 143 is located directly below the strip opening 121, so that the water flowing out of the strip opening 121 falls at the highest position of the inclined area 143, the height difference between the overflow position of the strip opening 121 and the highest position of the inclined area 143 is 160 mm, the inclination angle of the inclined area 143 is 45°, and the height difference between the highest position and the lowest position of the inclined area 143 is 100 mm.
[0045] In this way, there is a certain height difference between the overflow position of the strip-shaped through-hole 121 and the highest position of the inclined area 143, and between the highest position and the lowest position of the inclined area 143, so that the water flowing out of the strip-shaped through-hole 121 and converging into the horizontal area 142 connected to the lowest position of the inclined area 143 has a certain kinetic energy, thereby enabling the water to flow out more easily from the atomization hole 141 with a smaller diameter, the atomization hole 141 is less likely to be blocked, and the water flowing out of it is more continuous.
[0046] Since the maximum value of the height difference between the overflow position of the strip-shaped through-hole 121 and the highest position of the inclined area 143 is limited, no splashing occurs when water flows from the strip-shaped through-hole 121 to the inclined area 143 .
[0047] Moreover, the inclination angle of the inclined area 143 is between 40° and 50°, so that water can flow more evenly along the inclined area 143, and since the height difference between the highest position and the lowest position of the inclined area 143 is between 75mm and 125mm, it will not increase excessive kinetic energy and generate bubbles when converging in the horizontal area 142.
[0048] In one example, the diversion area 14 is strip-shaped and parallel to the strip-shaped opening 121. For example, if the strip-shaped opening 121 is curved, the diversion area 14 is also curved. If the strip-shaped opening 121 is straight, the diversion area 14 is also straight. This ensures that the water flows from the strip-shaped opening 121 to the horizontal area 142 in the diversion area 14 along a consistent path, ensuring that the water in the horizontal area 142 can evenly enter the atomizing hole 141 and evenly fall out of the atomizing hole 141.
[0049] In one example, the line connecting the centers of the atomizing holes 141 is parallel to the strip-shaped opening 121. For example, if the strip-shaped opening 121 is curved, the line connecting the centers of the atomizing holes 141 is also curved. If the strip-shaped opening 121 is straight, the line connecting the centers of the atomizing holes 141 is also straight. This ensures that the distance from the strip-shaped opening 121 to each atomizing hole 141 is consistent, further ensuring that water in the horizontal area 142 can enter the atomizing holes 141 uniformly and that the water flowing out of the atomizing holes 141 falls evenly.
[0050] In one example, the water inlet of the pipe 3 is connected to the water pump 2, and the water outlet 31 is connected to the first water storage area 11, and the water outlet 31 is oriented toward a position offset from the overflow hole 111, so that the water entering the first water storage area 11 from the water outlet 31 will not directly rush into the overflow hole 111, but can only flow out of the first water storage area 11 from the overflow hole 111 after being buffered as the water level rises. This can further reduce the impact of the water rushing out of the water outlet 31 on the kinetic energy of the water flowing out of the overflow hole 111, thereby avoiding uneven water flow from each overflow hole 111.
[0051] In one example, the water inlet of the pipe 3 is connected to the water pump 2, and the water outlet 31 is connected to the first water storage area 11, and the highest position of the water outlet 31 is lower than the lowest position of the overflow hole 111, so that the water entering the first water storage area 11 from the water outlet 31 will not directly rush into the overflow hole 111, but can only flow out of the first water storage area 11 from the overflow hole 111 after being buffered as the water level rises. This can further reduce the impact of the water rushing out of the water outlet 31 on the kinetic energy of the water flowing out of the overflow hole 111, and avoid uneven water flow from each overflow hole 111.
[0052] In one example, the lowest position of the overflow hole 111 is higher than the lowest position of the strip-shaped opening 121. This prevents the water in the second water storage area 12 from exceeding the water in the first water storage area 11, causing the water in the second water storage area 12 to flow back into the first water storage area 11 or merge with the water in the first water storage area 11, thereby causing the second water storage area 12 to fail or reduce its effectiveness.
[0053] In one example, the water storage area formed by the first water storage area 11 and the second water storage area 12 in the water storage structure 1 can be closed or open. For example, the first water storage area 11 is open, while the second water storage area 12 is closed. For another example, the first water storage area 11 is closed, while the second water storage area 12 is open. For another example, Figure 1 As shown, the first water storage area 11 and the second water storage area 12 are both open at the top.
[0054] In one example, in order to separate the first water storage area 11 and the second water storage area 12, the artificial waterfall system includes a partition 15 located in the middle of the water storage area of the water storage structure 1, and the first water storage area 11 and the second water storage area 12 are separated in the water storage area by the partition 15, and a plurality of overflow holes 111 are evenly distributed on the partition 15 in the horizontal direction. For example, referring to Figure 1 As shown, the partition 15 can be a partition with a trapezoidal cross section or a partition with a rectangular cross section. Figure 4 Take a partition with a rectangular middle section as an example.
[0055] In one example, the partition 15 may be inclined. For example, the partition 15 may be inclined toward the first water storage area 11 or toward the second water storage area 12; Figure 4 The separator 15 is arranged vertically. Figure 4 The vertically arranged partitions shown are taken as an example.
[0056] In one example, the partition 15 and the water storage structure 1 can be integral, for example, a one-piece box structure, or both can be part of a building; or they can be two separate structural members secured together by welding, screws, or snap connections. This embodiment does not limit the specific connection method between the partition 15 and the water storage structure 1, as long as the partition 15 can be securely secured to the water storage structure 1.
[0057] In one example, the overflow hole 111 may be circular or may be shaped as follows: Figure 6 The overflow hole 111 is a rectangle with one side horizontally arranged. Figure 6 Take the rectangle shown as an example.
[0058] Compared with the circular shape, the lower side of the overflow position of the rectangular overflow hole 111 is horizontal, so the overflow from the rectangular overflow hole 111 is more uniform.
[0059] In an example, in order to facilitate cleaning in the first water storage area 11 and the second water storage area 12, the first water storage area 11 and the second water storage area 12 are opened at the top as shown. Figure 1 In order to prevent debris from falling into the first water storage area 11 and the second water storage area 12, the artificial waterfall system further includes a cover 13 arranged on the first water storage area 11 and the second water storage area 12.
[0060] In this way, debris can be prevented from falling into the first water storage area 11 and the second water storage area 12, and the cover 13 can be opened every certain period of time to clean the first water storage area 11 and the second water storage area 12, so that the water quality of the water flowing out of the first water storage area 11 and the second water storage area 12 does not deteriorate or contain insoluble impurities after long-term use, and the atomizing holes 141 with smaller diameters are less likely to be blocked.
[0061] In an example, the second water storage area 12 and the flow guide area 14 are separated by a flow equalizing plate 16, the strip-shaped through holes 121 are arranged on the flow equalizing plate 16, the plurality of overflow holes 111 are arranged on the top of the partition piece 15, and the strip-shaped through holes 121 are arranged on the top of the flow equalizing plate 16, so that the upper sides of the plurality of overflow holes 111 and the strip-shaped through holes 121 are open. In this way, the processing can be facilitated without affecting the function.
[0062] In an example, the highest position of the flow guide flat plate as the inclined area 143 is connected to the bottom of the flow equalizing plate 16 away from the second water storage area 12, and the horizontal plate as the horizontal area 142 extends from the lowest position of the flow guide flat plate away from the flow equalizing plate 16.
[0063] In an example, since the water flowing out of the water outlet 31 of the first pipeline 3 has a large kinetic energy, the partition piece 15 is arranged in the water storage structure 1 opposite to the water outlet 31. In this way, the water flowing out of the water outlet 31 impacts on the partition piece 15 and consumes a large amount of kinetic energy, achieving the purpose of buffering the water, so that the water supply pressure is greatly reduced.
[0064] In an example, since the water flowing out of the water outlet 31 impacts on the partition piece 15, the partition piece 15 is subjected to a large force from the first water storage area towards the second water storage area 12, and therefore the artificial waterfall system further includes a plurality of rib plates 4 arranged on the side of the partition piece 15 facing the second water storage area 12, the partition piece 15 is supported by the rib plates 4, the bearing capacity of the partition piece 15 is increased, and the service life is improved.
[0065] In an example, the rib plate 4 can be arranged on the side of the partition piece 15 facing the second water storage area 12. Figure 1As shown, the rib plate 4 is installed at the bottom of the partition 15 and connected with the bottom of the second water storage area 12.
[0066] In one example, the rib plate 4 can also be installed on the cover plate 13 as shown. When the cover plate 13 is installed on the first and second water storage areas 12, the rib plate 4 is located at the top of the partition 15 facing the second water storage area 12 and abutting against the partition 15. In comparison with the previous example, the rib plate 4 is connected with the cover plate 13 and can be removed together with the cover plate 13. Thus, when the second water storage area 12 needs to be cleaned, the rib plate 4 does not interfere with the cleaning process. Figure 3
[0067] In one example, the artificial waterfall system further comprises a low-lying water collecting pool 5 for collecting water flowing out of the atomizing holes 141. For example, the water collecting pool 5 is located directly below the atomizing holes 141. The water suction end of the water pump 2 is connected with the water collecting pool 5. For example, the water pump 2 is a submersible pump installed in the water collecting pool 5. For another example, the water suction end of the water pump 2 is connected with the water collecting pool 5 through a second pipeline. In this way, water can be recycled.
[0068] In one example, a liquid level sensor is installed in the water collecting pool 5, and the liquid level sensor and the water pump 2 are both connected with a controller. When the liquid level sensor detects that the water level in the water collecting pool 5 is below a specified height, it sends a signal to the controller that the water level is too low, and the controller sends an instruction to the water pump to stop running.
[0069] In this way, on the one hand, water can be prevented from overflowing the water collecting pool 5, and on the other hand, the water pump 2 can be turned off when the water level in the water collecting pool 5 is too low, so as to prevent the water pump from running dry in the water collecting pool 5 and causing damage to the water pump 2.
[0070] In one example, a backflow preventer is installed in the first pipeline 3, so as to prevent water from flowing back from a higher position.
[0071] In one example, a bottom valve and a filter screen are installed at the water suction end of the water pump 2, so as to prevent water impurities such as plastic bags, rags, and garbage from clogging the water suction end.
[0072] In one example, the same length of wall washing lights 6 are installed on the outer walls at the bottom of the horizontal area 142, so as to beautify the waterfall effect.
[0073] In the disclosed embodiment, the water pump 2 pumps water into the first water storage area 11 through the first pipe 3. Since the overflow position of the overflow hole 111 is higher than the lowest point of the first water storage area 11, water gradually accumulates in the first water storage area 11. During this process, the water supply pressure is relatively dispersed throughout the entire first water storage area 11, the water supply pressure decreases, and bubbles disappear. As the water level in the first water storage area 11 gradually rises, since the overflow holes 111 are evenly distributed horizontally, the water level in the first water storage area 11 will simultaneously exceed the overflow positions of all the overflow holes 111, causing water to flow evenly from each overflow hole 111 into various locations in the second water storage area 12. Moreover, since the overflow position of the strip-shaped opening 121 is higher than the lowest point of the second water storage area 12, the water flowing into the second water storage area 121 will also gradually accumulate, and the water pressure at various locations in the second water storage area 12 will be relatively evenly distributed throughout the second water storage area 12. Then, since the strip opening 121 extends in the horizontal direction, as the water level in the second water storage area 12 exceeds the overflow position of the strip opening 121, the water in the second water storage area 12 will flow out simultaneously in the direction in which the strip opening 121 extends, so that the water flowing out of the strip opening 121 and falling to a low position can be evenly distributed.
[0074] The embodiment of the present disclosure also provides a building, which includes any artificial waterfall system as described above, wherein the water storage structure 1 is located at a high position of the building, for example, the water storage structure 1 is located at the top of the building or at the waist of the building.
[0075] In the disclosed embodiment, the water pump 2 pumps water into the first water storage area 11 through the first pipe 3. Since the overflow position of the overflow hole 111 is higher than the lowest point of the first water storage area 11, water gradually accumulates in the first water storage area 11. During this process, the water supply pressure is relatively dispersed throughout the entire first water storage area 11, the water supply pressure decreases, and bubbles disappear. As the water level in the first water storage area 11 gradually rises, since the overflow holes 111 are evenly distributed horizontally, the water level in the first water storage area 11 will simultaneously exceed the overflow positions of all the overflow holes 111, causing water to flow evenly from each overflow hole 111 into various locations in the second water storage area 12. Moreover, since the overflow position of the strip-shaped opening 121 is higher than the lowest point of the second water storage area 12, the water flowing into the second water storage area 121 will also gradually accumulate, and the water pressure at various locations in the second water storage area 12 will be relatively evenly distributed throughout the second water storage area 12. Then, since the strip opening 121 extends in the horizontal direction, as the water level in the second water storage area 12 exceeds the overflow position of the strip opening 121, the water in the second water storage area 12 will flow out simultaneously in the direction in which the strip opening 121 extends, so that the water flowing out of the strip opening 121 and falling to a low position can be evenly distributed.
