Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of building water supply and drainage technology, and specifically relates to a drainage system that prevents leakage at the base of pipes. Background Technology

[0002] Leakage is one of the most common quality problems in buildings. Generally, as long as the rigid waterproofing of the concrete and its secondary waterproofing are of qualified quality and meet the requirements of the water tightness test, leakage will not occur. The most likely location for leakage is at the base of pipes. Once leakage occurs, subsequent repairs are costly and difficult. Due to the widespread use of same-floor drainage systems, leakage at the base of sewage risers has become a major problem. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a drainage system that prevents leakage at the base of pipes. Summary of the Invention

[0049] Example 1

[0050] A specific embodiment of the present invention, such as Figures 1 to 6As shown, a drainage system for preventing leakage at the base of pipes is disclosed, including a sewage riser 1, a horizontal drainage pipe 2, and a leakage discharge assembly. The sewage riser 1 is responsible for the vertical transport of sewage and wastewater. The horizontal drainage pipe 2 connects indoor water appliances 7 and the sewage riser 1, and is responsible for discharging sewage and wastewater from the building. The inlet end of the horizontal drainage pipe 2 is connected to the indoor water appliances 7, and the outlet end of the horizontal drainage pipe 2 is connected to the sewage riser 1. The connection between the sewage riser 1 and the horizontal drainage pipe 2 is the most prone to leakage. The leakage discharge assembly has a platform structure 3 and a water discharge riser 4. The water discharge riser 4 is responsible for the vertical transport of leakage water at the base of the sewage riser 1, and the platform structure 3 is responsible for collecting the leakage water at the base and discharging it into the water discharge riser 4.

[0051] The platform structure 3 is located below the connection between the sewage riser 1 and the horizontal drainage pipe 2, and the platform structure 3 is sealed and fitted onto the sewage riser 1; the platform structure 3 is open and connected to the water discharge riser 4, so as to discharge the water that has leaked into the platform structure 3.

[0052] Specifically, the platform structure 3 has a platform 31 and a first pipe 32, a second pipe 33 and a flange 38 provided on the platform 31. The flange 38 is located at the edge of the platform 31 and protrudes upward to form a water-blocking structure. The flange 38 is in contact with or sealed to the bottom of the structural floor slab 6. When water leakage occurs, the leakage water will flow into the platform 31. Since the flange 38 protrudes from the platform 31, the leakage water will not leak out from the flange 38, but will flow directly into the water discharge riser 4 through the drain outlet 37. The first pipe body 32 and the second pipe body 33 are both integrally formed by recessing the platform 31 downwards. The top openings of the first pipe body 32 and the second pipe body 33 are opened on the platform 31 and located in the area enclosed by the flange 38. The first pipe body 32 is coaxially sleeved outside the sewage riser 1. The lower part of the first pipe body 32 is sealed and connected to the riser converter 8 through the sealing adapter sleeve 34. The lower part of the second pipe body 33 is connected to the lower water discharge riser 4 through the lower adapter pipe 35. The top opening of the second pipe body 33 is connected to the upper adapter pipe 36, which is connected to the upper water discharge riser 4. The top opening of the second pipe body 33 and the connection of the upper adapter pipe 36 are provided with a drain outlet 37, through which the water in the platform structure 3 is discharged into the water discharge riser 4. Except for the drain outlet 37, all other locations are sealed connections. That is, the upper connecting pipe 36 is sealed to the upper water discharge riser 4, the lower part of the second pipe 33 is sealed to the lower connecting pipe 35, and the lower connecting pipe 35 is sealed to the lower water discharge riser 4.

[0053] In this embodiment, the second pipe body 33, the lower connecting pipe 35, the upper connecting pipe 36 and the water discharge riser 4 are arranged coaxially.

[0054] In one optional embodiment, the sealing adapter sleeve 34 has an integral structure of a first section 341 and a second section 342. The inner diameter of the first section 341 is larger than the outer diameter of the first pipe body 32, and the inner diameter of the second section 342 is larger than the outer diameter of the sewage riser 1 and the riser converter 8 but smaller than the inner diameter of the first section 341. A first sealing element 11 is provided between the first section 341 and the first pipe body 32, a second sealing element 12 is provided between the second section 342 and the riser converter 8, and a third sealing element 13 is provided between the second pipe body 33 and the lower adapter pipe 35. Optionally, the first sealing element 11, the second sealing element 12, and the third sealing element 13 are sealing strips or sealing rings.

[0055] In this embodiment, the water discharge riser 4 is connected to the atmosphere, so that the water entering the water discharge riser 4 flows out under the action of gravity.

[0056] In this embodiment, the connection between the sewage riser 1 and the horizontal drainage pipe 2 is located indoors or outdoors. That is, the sewage riser 1 and the water discharge riser 4 can be arranged indoors or outdoors, but are preferably arranged indoors.

[0057] In one alternative embodiment, a vortex generator 5 is provided at the connection between the sewage riser 1 and the horizontal drainage pipe 2. The vortex technology is used to make the water flow rotate along the pipe wall to form a hollow exhaust channel, which is conducive to air flow and smooth drainage.

[0058] In one alternative embodiment, before the structural floor slab is poured, an installation opening 10 is reserved according to the location of the countertop structure 3 as required in the design drawings. During installation, the factory-prefabricated countertop structure 3 is fixed in the installation opening 10, and the countertop structure 3 is fixedly connected to the structural floor slab 6 through a bracket 39. The size of the installation opening 10 is smaller than the countertop size of the countertop structure 3, that is, the projection of the installation opening 10 in the plane falls within the range defined by the flange 38 of the countertop structure 3.

[0059] After installation, the installation opening 10 is backfilled to form a backfill layer 9. The backfill layer 9 includes cement mortar 93, expanded clay layer 92, permeable non-woven fabric 91, and expanded clay concrete backfill layer 90 arranged from bottom to top. Among them, cement mortar 93 is only filled in the mortar filling area formed between the sealing transition sleeve 34, the first pipe body 32 and the sewage riser 1. The top surface of cement mortar 93 is flush with the platform 31 to avoid the cement mortar blocking the drain outlet 37. Expanded clay layer and permeable non-woven fabric are laid on the platform. Expanded clay layer 92, permeable non-woven fabric 91 and expanded clay concrete backfill layer 90 wrap around the upper transition pipe 36, so that the drain outlet 37 of the platform structure 3 is located at the bottom of expanded clay layer 92, and the permeable non-woven fabric blocks the expanded clay particles of expanded clay layer 92 from entering the second pipe body 33 from the drain outlet 37. Because there are gaps in the expanded clay layer 92, and these gaps are connected to the drain outlet 37, the leaking water can pass through the expanded clay layer 92 and the drain outlet 37 in sequence, and enter the water discharge riser 4.

[0060] To accommodate different types of sewage risers 1, the sealing adapter sleeve 34 comes in various sizes. The appropriate sealing adapter sleeve 34 is selected based on the shape and size of the sewage riser 1. After installation, a mortar filling area is formed between the sealing adapter sleeve 34, the first pipe body 32, and the sewage riser 1. Cement mortar 93 is then filled into the mortar filling area to fill the gap between the platform structure 3 and the outer wall of the sewage riser 1, thus forming a sealing structure. The filling height of the cement mortar 93 is flush with the platform surface 31.

[0061] In one alternative embodiment, a riser converter 8 is provided on the lower side of the platform structure 3 to accommodate sewage risers 1 of different shapes. At the same time, a water discharge riser 4 is installed at the second pipe body 33 and the upper connecting pipe 36 of the platform structure 3.

[0062] After the overall installation of the drainage system is completed, the installation opening 10 will be backfilled. Specifically, the mortar filling area formed between the sealing transition sleeve 34, the first pipe body 32, and the sewage riser 1 will be filled with cement mortar 94, with the top surface of the cement mortar 94 flush with the platform surface 31 of the platform structure 3. Then, a layer of expanded clay aggregate 92 will be laid at the bottom of the installation opening 10, followed by a layer of permeable non-woven fabric 91, ensuring that water seepage at the root can penetrate. The expanded clay aggregate layer and the permeable non-woven fabric form a permeable layer. Finally, a layer of expanded clay aggregate concrete backfill 90 will be laid on top of the permeable non-woven fabric 91, backfilling until it is flush with the upper surface of the structural floor slab 6. Working principle:

[0063] Wastewater is discharged from the drainage pipes of each water appliance 7, flows through horizontal pipes to the hydrocyclone 5, and finally exits the building through the sewage riser 1. When water appliances 7 above the structural floor slab 6 leak, since the concrete floor slabs undergo a water tightness test beforehand, the structural floor slab 6 is a waterproof concrete floor slab with anti-seepage function. It is impermeable, so the wastewater will not seep down. Instead, it flows along the slope of the concrete floor slab to the backfill layer 9 near the root of the pipe. The leaking wastewater continues to flow downward through the interconnected pores inside the ceramsite concrete backfill layer 90 to the permeable non-woven fabric 91, and finally enters the bottom ceramsite layer 92, where it is collected by the platform structure and flows directly through the drainage outlet 37 of the platform structure 3 to the water discharge riser 4, and then out of the building.

[0064] Compared with existing technologies, the drainage system for preventing leakage at the pipe root provided in this embodiment uses a platform structure at the easily leaking point at the pipe root to collect leaking water and discharge it into the building through the water drainage riser. Even if leakage occurs at the pipe root, it will not seep down to the floor below, but will be discharged directly outside the building, thereby achieving the purpose of preventing leakage. Moreover, this structure does not require the destructive opening of the top surface of the floor slab for repair work when leakage occurs, reducing the cost of leakage rectification.

[0065] The specific embodiments described above further illustrate the purpose, technical solution, and beneficial effects of this application. It should be understood that the above description is only a specific embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application.
