Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of water rescue training technology, specifically involving a combined training system for rapid waterways and urban flooding. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of water rescue training, especially in rapids emergency rescue training, traditional training facilities are typically designed for a single function. For example, existing rapids training channels mainly focus on demonstrating basic water flow patterns, using pump systems to create circulating water flow, thereby generating specific flow regimes within a fixed-shape channel. These training facilities provide basic functionality for training in fundamental water flow cognition. Another common type of training facility is the construction of independent functional training areas, such as separate urban flooding simulation fields. These independent facilities provide targeted training environments within their respective professional fields.

[0003] However, the aforementioned training facilities have the following drawbacks: 1. Limited training scenarios: Traditional rapids training waterways have limited functions and can only provide training on limited water flow patterns. They cannot simulate the complex and ever-changing comprehensive environment encountered in real rescue operations, especially lacking integrated training capabilities for typical disaster scenarios such as urban flooding.

[0004] 2. Inadequate safety assurance mechanism: In high-speed water flow training environment, traditional safety measures mainly rely on manual monitoring and simple protective equipment, lacking a rapid response and automatic deployment proactive safety interception mechanism, which poses training safety risks.

[0005] 3. Low efficiency in space and resource utilization: Multiple independent training facilities require a large amount of land resources and each is equipped with an independent water circulation system, resulting in high construction and operation costs and low resource utilization.

[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need in this field for a training system that can solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a combined training system for rapid waterway and urban flooding, which can solve the aforementioned problems.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a combined training system for rapid waterway and urban flooding, including a rapid water pumping station, a water distribution tank, a training waterway, a training pool, and an urban flooding training area; The turbulent water pump room is equipped with a turbulent water pump, the inlet of which extends to the training water pool, and the outlet of which extends to the water distribution pool. The training waterway connects the water distribution tank and the training water tank, and the training waterway includes a boiling line zone, a tumbling flow zone, a covering flow zone, a smiling flow zone, a frowning flow zone, and a vortex flow zone. The urban flooding training area connects the water distribution pool and the training pool.

[0009] Preferably, the system further includes a boat driving obstacle training area located between the training waterway and the training pool.

[0010] Preferably, the system further includes a rappelling training area located between the boat driving obstacle training area and the training pool.

[0011] Preferably, the urban flooding training area and the boat driving obstacle course training area are connected by a tunnel structure.

[0012] Preferably, the training waterway is equipped with a connecting bridge.

[0013] Preferably, the training pool is equipped with an overflow drain pipe.

[0014] Preferably, the training waterway is equipped with a rescue mechanism, which includes a lifting mechanism, an interception net, two support rods, and four guide rods. The lifting mechanism is located on the bank of the training waterway, and the two support rods are respectively located on both sides of the bottom of the training waterway. The downstream ends of the two support rods are fixedly connected by a connecting rod. The interception net is positioned between the two support rods; The lifting end of the lifting mechanism is connected to the connecting rod by a pull rope; Two guide rods are provided on each side of the training waterway. A collar is slidably sleeved on the guide rod. The two collars on the same side are connected by a sliding rod. A receiving net is provided between the two sliding rods. The upstream end of the support rod is hinged to the collar on the same side and located downstream.

[0015] Preferably, the downstream collar is provided with an angle limiting element.

[0016] Preferably, the connecting rod is fitted with a buffer sleeve.

[0017] Preferably, the lifting mechanism is a cylinder or a conveyor belt mechanism.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. This invention provides a combined training system for rapids and urban flooding, integrating a rapids pumping station, a distribution tank, a training waterway, a training pool, and an urban flooding training area into a unified whole. Designed as a parallel waterway, this single system can simultaneously provide two differentiated training environments: rapids rescue training and urban flooding rescue training. The training waterway includes boiling line zones, turbulent flow zones, covering flow zones, smiling flow zones, frowning flow zones, and vortex flow zones, systematically and completely reproducing the most typical and dangerous water flow patterns in natural rivers. This allows trainees to systematically learn and master the skills of identifying and responding to various complex water flow patterns within a continuous training waterway.

[0019] 2. This invention provides a combined training system for rapid waterways and urban flooding. The support rod initially operates horizontally. As the lifting mechanism raises its lifting end, it pulls the connecting rod upwards, causing the downstream end of the support rod to swing upwards, thus tilting the support rod. At this point, the interception net also tilts, allowing it to intercept people who have fallen into the waterway and facilitate rapid rescue. When the support rod swings to a predetermined angle, the angle limiting component contacts the support rod, preventing further swinging. If the lifting end of the lifting mechanism continues to rise, it will cause the support rod, collar, and sliding rod to rise simultaneously, thereby raising the receiving net and allowing the person who has fallen into the water to quickly float to the surface.

[0022] To make the technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the exemplary embodiments of this application will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not an exhaustive list of all embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other.

[0023] This embodiment provides a combined training system for rapid waterway and urban flooding, including a rapid water pumping station 1, a water distribution tank 2, a training waterway 3, a training water tank 4, an urban flooding training area 5, and auxiliary facilities such as water purification.

[0024] Among them, the turbulent water pump room 1 is equipped with a turbulent water pump 6, the inlet of the turbulent water pump 6 extends to the training water pool 4, and the outlet of the turbulent water pump 6 extends to the water distribution pool 2. For example, see Figure 4The turbulent water pump room 1 is equipped with a turbulent water pump 6, which can be a high-flow-rate pump. The inlet of the turbulent water pump 6 extends to the bottom area of ​​the training pool 4 via an inlet pipe, and the outlet of the turbulent water pump 6 extends to the distribution pool 2 via an outlet pipe. This connection method ensures that the turbulent water pump 6 can effectively draw water from the training pool 4 and deliver it to the distribution pool 2. The training pool 4 can be converted from an existing site pond, reducing construction costs such as excavation and achieving green energy conservation.

[0025] Training waterway 3 connects water distribution pool 2 and training water pool 4. Training waterway 3 includes connected boiling line zone, tumbling flow zone, covering flow zone, smiling flow zone, frowning flow zone and vortex flow zone. For example, see Figure 1 Training channel 3 features a specific slope and obstacles to generate flow velocities and patterns that meet training requirements. For details, see [link to details]. Figure 5 The training waterway 3 is equipped with a boiling line waterfall structure 301, a tumbling flow obstacle 302, a covering flow obstacle 303, a smiling flow obstacle 304, a frowning flow obstacle 305, and a vortex flow obstacle 306. A flow regulation device can be installed at the connection between the training waterway 3 and the distribution tank 2 to control the amount of water entering the training waterway 3. See also... Figure 2 The water flow direction in training waterway 3 is as follows: the training water is pumped from the rapid flow pump room 1 to the distribution pool 2, and then enters the training waterway 3. In the training waterway 3, flow patterns such as boiling line, rolling flow, covering flow, smiling flow, frowning flow, and vortex flow are formed, and finally the water flows back to the training pool 4.

[0026] The urban flooding training area 5 connects the water distribution pool 2 and the training pool 4; For example, see Figure 1 The urban flooding training zone 5 can simulate a real urban flooding environment, including training and rescue elements such as buildings and municipal facilities, meeting diverse training requirements. Urban flooding training zone 5 is also connected between the diversion pool 2 and the training pool 4, forming another training channel parallel to the training waterway 3. This parallel design allows the system to simultaneously support both rapids training and urban flooding training. See also Figure 3 The water flow direction in the urban flooding training area 5 is as follows: the training water is pumped from the rapid flow pumping station 1 to the water distribution pool 2, then enters the urban flooding training area 5, and finally flows back to the training pool 4.

[0027] Based on the above structure, the combined rapids and urban flooding training system provided in this embodiment integrates the rapids pumping station 1, the distribution pool 2, the training waterway 3, the training pool 4, and the urban flooding training area 5 into a unified whole, designed as a parallel waterway. This allows a single system to simultaneously provide two differentiated training environments: rapids rescue training and urban flooding rescue training. The training waterway includes boiling line zones, churning flow zones, covering flow zones, smiling flow zones, frowning flow zones, and vortex flow zones, systematically and completely reproducing the most typical and dangerous water flow patterns in natural rivers. This enables trainees to systematically learn and master the skills of identifying and responding to various complex water flow patterns within a continuous training waterway.

[0028] Based on the above technical solution, the system provided in this embodiment also includes a boat driving obstacle training area 7, which is located between the training waterway 3 and the training pool 4. The system also includes a rappelling training area 8, which is located between the boat driving obstacle training area 7 and the training pool 4; Urban flooding training area 5 and boat driving obstacle training area 7 are connected by tunnel structure 9; For example, see Figure 1 The boat driving obstacle course training area 7 and the rappelling training area 8 are located in the transition area between the training waterway 3 and the training pool 4. (See also...) Figure 5 The boat handling obstacle training area 7 contains water surface obstacles 307, which can be arranged in a specific formation to simulate navigational obstacles in real waters. These obstacles are fixed to the seabed by an anchor chain system and can withstand the impact of water flow. This allows for the training of boat operators' precise control skills and is an important part of rescue training. The rappelling training area 8 can be equipped with a training tower, which can be designed with a steel structure and has multiple working platforms at different heights. Each platform is equipped with standardized safety protection devices and training auxiliary facilities. After the water flows into the rappelling training area 8, it is narrowed by the obstacles on both sides, and the slope of the narrowed section increases, accelerating the water flow before it falls into the training pool 4. In the tunnel structure 9, the two ends of the tunnel are smoothly connected to the urban flooding training area 5 and the boat handling obstacle training area 7, respectively, ensuring that trainees and water flow can pass smoothly, allowing training to simulate a complete rescue scenario from open water to a confined space.

[0029] In the technical solution provided in this embodiment, a connecting bridge 10 is provided on the training waterway 3.

[0030] For example, see Figure 1The connecting bridge 10 can be constructed with a steel frame structure, with the main beams made of structural steel and the bridge deck paved with anti-slip steel plates. The span of the connecting bridge 10 is determined based on the width of the training waterway 3 to ensure complete crossing of the waterway. The connecting bridge 10 is equipped with standard safety protection facilities, including guardrails and fall arrestors. The bridge deck also features an anchor point system and storage locations for rescue equipment, supporting various bridge rescue training programs.

[0031] In the technical solution provided in this embodiment, the training water pool 4 is equipped with an overflow drain pipe 11.

[0032] For example, see Figure 1 The inlet of the overflow drain pipe 11 is located at a preset height on the inner wall of the training pool 4, which corresponds to the normal water level of the system. A protective grille is provided at the inlet of the overflow drain pipe 11 to prevent debris from entering the drainage system.

[0033] In the technical solution provided in this embodiment, a rescue mechanism 12 is provided on the training waterway 3. The rescue mechanism 12 is set in a key position where accidents are likely to occur. It is mainly used to provide fast and reliable safety interception protection when personnel fall into the water or are swept away by the water flow during the training process.

[0034] Specifically, the rescue mechanism 12 includes a lifting mechanism 121, an interception net 122, two support rods 123, and four guide rods 126; The lifting mechanism 121 is set on the bank of the training channel 3, and two support rods 123 are respectively set on both sides of the bottom of the training channel 3. The downstream ends of the two support rods 123 are fixedly connected by connecting rods 124. The intercepting net 122 is set between two support rods 123; The lifting end of the lifting mechanism 121 is connected to the connecting rod 124 via a pull rope 125; Two guide rods 126 are provided on each side of the training waterway 3. A collar 127 is slidably sleeved on the guide rod 126. The two collars 127 on the same side are connected by a sliding rod 128. A receiving net 129 is provided between the two sliding rods 128. The upstream end of the support rod 123 is hinged to the collar 127 on the same side and located downstream. An angle limiting element 130 is provided on the downstream collar 127; For example, see Figure 5-7 The lifting mechanism 121 is either a cylinder or a conveyor belt mechanism. The lifting mechanism 121 is fixedly installed on the reinforced concrete foundation on the bank of the training waterway 3 by anchor bolts. The support rods 123 are arranged along the extension direction of the training waterway 3. The left ends of the two support rods 123 are fixedly connected by the connecting rods 124. The interception net 122 can be made of nylon or polyethylene rope netting. The edge of the net is fixed to the support rods 123, so that the two support rods 123, the connecting rods 124, and the interception net 122 can form a whole.

[0035] For example, two vertical guide rods 126 are fixedly installed on each side of the training waterway 3, with the lower ends of the guide rods 126 anchored in the foundation at the bottom of the waterway. A collar 127, which can slide up and down along the rod, is fitted onto the guide rod 126. The receiving net 129 can be made of nylon or polyethylene rope, with its edge fixed to the sliding rod 128. The right end of the support rod 123 is hinged to the collar 127 on the same side, allowing the left end of the support rod 123 to swing upwards. An angle limiting member 130 is fixed to the left side of the collar 127. When the left end of the support rod 123 swings upwards at a certain angle, the angle limiting member 130 abuts against the support rod 123, preventing the support rod 123 from continuing to swing.

[0036] For details, see Figure 7-9 The support rod 123 is initially horizontal. It rises via the lifting mechanism 121, pulling the connecting rod 124 upwards. The left end of the support rod 123 swings upwards, causing it to tilt. At this point, the interception net 122 also tilts, allowing it to intercept people who have fallen into the water and facilitate a rapid rescue. When the support rod 123 reaches a predetermined angle, the angle limiter 130 engages with it, preventing further swinging. If the lifting mechanism 121 continues to rise, it will cause the support rod 123, the collar 127, and the sliding rod 128 to rise simultaneously, which in turn raises the receiving net 129, allowing the person to quickly float to the surface and avoid prolonged immersion. The receiving net 129 prevents people from falling below the net.

[0037] The connecting rod 124 is equipped with a buffer sleeve. This prevents people who fall into the water from colliding with the connecting rod 124 and getting injured.

[0038] In another embodiment, the collar 127 can be fixed to the outside of the guide rod 126 (no longer slidingly sleeved on the outside of the guide rod 126). In this case, the collar 127 cannot slide up and down. After the support rod 123 swings to a predetermined angle, the angle limiting member 130 abuts against the support rod 123, so that the support rod 123 cannot continue to swing. The interception net 122 can then intercept the person who has fallen into the water (without the need to set up the receiving net 129 and its related components), preventing the person from floating in the water for too long or even colliding with obstacles, resulting in unconsciousness and injury.

[0039] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this application.
