Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of fishways, in particular to a vertical slotted fishway with a vertically raised structure. Background Art

[0002] The construction of dams inevitably cuts off the reproduction channels of migratory fish, causing a serious decline in the species and number of migratory fish in the basin. As an effective engineering and technical means, fishways are key measures to alleviate the impact of dam construction on fish and river connectivity.

[0022] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easy to understand, the present invention is further described below with reference to specific diagrams.

[0023] Example: Figure 1-5 A vertical slot fishway with a vertical spiral structure is shown, comprising a square inlet pool 1, which is connected to a square outlet pool 2 through a vertical spiral channel, a first entrance 3 is arranged on each of the three side walls of the inlet pool 1, and a first exit 4 is arranged on each of the three side walls of the outlet pool 2.

[0024] Furthermore, two flow promoters are provided at the first inlet 3 and the first outlet 4 to change the direction and speed of the water flow and provide a suitable migration channel. The flow promoter includes a base 5, which is connected to a perturbator 7 through a traction rope 6. A flow rate regulating sensor 8 is provided on the perturbator 7, and the flow rate regulating sensor 8 can be adjusted according to the preferred flow rate of the target fish species. The base 5 is cast with concrete to ensure the stability and fixity of the flow promoter; the traction rope 6 is made of steel wire to ensure that the flow promoter can move and suspend freely in the water; the perturbator 7 is made of lightweight material and can be suspended in the water to produce a turbulent flow field suitable for the preferences of fish.

[0025] The speed and direction of the water flow at the inlet are adjusted adaptively by the perturbator 7 on the flow propeller, and the flow velocity of the inlet section is monitored in real time by the flow velocity regulating sensor 8, so as to provide the most suitable water flow conditions for fish migration and increase the success rate of fish upstream. Along the longitudinal section direction of the water flow, the flow propeller is arranged at non-equidistant intervals to construct multiple flow velocity zones at the inlet, so that fish of various sizes and swimming abilities can pass through, and provide channels for fish migration.

[0026] Furthermore, the vertical spiral channel includes several vertical spiral main channels 9, and adjacent main channels 9 are connected by spiral bends 10. The vertical spiral channel is made of reinforced concrete, and vertically spirals from the downstream water level to the upstream water level. The slope of each layer of the main channel 9 is 5%, the spiral height is 6m, and the overall climbing height is 100m. The interior of the main channel 9 is equidistantly divided into several pool chambers 12 by several first partitions 11. The first partition 11 includes large partition units and small partition units that are staggered from each other, so that the pool chambers are interconnected. The interior of the spiral bend 10 is partitioned into a lounge 14 and an aisle 15 by a second partition 13, and the lounge 14 and the aisle 15 are interconnected.

[0027] Furthermore, a main rest pool or an auxiliary rest pool is provided in the rest room 14, and the main rest pool and the auxiliary rest pool are staggered and distributed in several rest rooms 14. The main rest pool is used to provide a burrowing ecological environment for fish, and the auxiliary rest pool is used to provide a natural riverbed environment for fish.

[0028] Further, such as Figure 4 As shown, the main rest pool includes a pool box 16, a second inlet 17 which passes through from top to bottom is arranged on the right side of the front wall of the pool box 16, a second outlet 18 which extends from left to right is arranged on the upper left side of the front wall of the pool box 16, and sand, stones and aquatic plants are placed inside the pool box 16.

[0029] The main resting pool can provide a stable environment for fish, which helps to restore their physical strength so as to better migrate upstream. The stones are of different sizes and are arranged in a staggered manner, providing a hidden space for fish, forming a relatively still water space, and providing a habitat simulating a natural environment for fish, which meets the ecological needs of fish burrowing, and attracts them to enter and rest. Fish enter the main resting pool through the second entrance 17, leave the resting pool from the second exit 18, continue to rise upward, and complete the migration. The second entrance 17 is connected to the front part of the pool chamber, so that the fish can find the resting pool conveniently and quickly. The exit part adopts a small hole structure and is connected to the pool chamber of the rear part, so that the fish can leave the resting pool more efficiently.

[0030] In this embodiment, sand, gravel, stones and aquatic plants are arranged in the main resting pool to create a more ecological resting pool environment, which can provide resting conditions for upstream fish. After several rotations and rises, the fish reach the fishway exit and complete the migration.

[0031] Further, such as Figure 5 As shown, the auxiliary rest pool includes a pool box 19, and a soil cavity 20 is arranged inside the pool box 19 (that is, the outer shell of the cavity is made of soil), and five corresponding circular third entrances 21 are arranged on the right side of the soil cavity 20 and the front wall of the pool box 19, and five circular third exits 22 are arranged on the left top wall of the soil cavity 20, and sand and gravel are placed inside the soil cavity 20.

[0032] The auxiliary resting pool simulates a natural riverbed environment, provides a habitat close to the natural ecology for fish, and provides a clear and oxygen-rich swimming space for fish. Fish can easily enter the resting pool from the third entrance 21 on the right side, and the third exit 22 on the left side is the exit for them to leave the resting pool.

[0033] Fish enter the auxiliary resting pool through the third entrance 21, which is a hole-shaped structure that simulates the flow effect of natural water bodies. Gravel and soil are laid on the bottom of the resting pool, providing fish with a habitat close to the natural ecology and a clear and oxygen-rich swimming space. The third exit 22 on the upper left side is the exit for fish to leave the resting pool. This design not only ensures the free entry and exit of fish in the resting pool, but also effectively avoids crowding and confusion of fish.

[0034] The above are only implementation modes of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structure made using the contents of the present invention's specification and drawings, directly or indirectly used in other related technical fields, are also within the patent protection scope of the present invention.
