[0024] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0025] First embodiment

[0026] like Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, the utility model discloses a construction unit that can be used to construct a tidal pool dam with wave reduction and wave elimination effects. The construction unit is a quadrangular prism block 1, and a vertically extending receiving hole 2 is provided on the top of the block 1. A texture component 4 with multiple vertical through holes is provided in the cavity of the receiving hole 2. When waves or tides enter the receiving hole 2, the receiving hole 2 and the texture component 4 can consume the kinetic energy of the waves. The texture component 4 arranged in the receiving hole 2 can increase the roughness of the top surface of the block 1. Using the construction unit to construct wave elimination facilities such as tidal pool dams can improve the wave elimination effect of the wave elimination facilities.

[0027] Preferably, the block 1 is a quadrangular prism structure with equal length and width.

[0028] In this embodiment, the texture member 4 is a top cover covering the top of the receiving hole 2, and the top cover has a plurality of vertically penetrating holes, through which seawater can flow into the receiving hole 2. The top cover is connected to the receiving hole 2 around its periphery.

[0029] Furthermore, at least one drainage hole 3 extending along the length direction of the block 1 is formed on each of the two opposite side walls of the block 1. The drainage hole 3 is arranged below the accommodating hole 2. Water on both sides of the block 1 can flow from the drainage hole 3 to the other side. When a plurality of blocks 1 are arranged together in a straight line, the drainage holes 3 of two adjacent blocks 1 can form a water conduit, which is beneficial to the rapid discharge of water on the block 1 combination.

[0030] Specifically, three equally spaced drainage holes 3 are arranged on the side wall of the block 1 to enable the seawater to flow out quickly.

[0031] In another optional embodiment, the drainage hole 3 is connected to the receiving hole 2, that is, the top height of the drainage hole 3 is slightly higher than the bottom elevation of the receiving hole 2. Since the drainage hole 3 is connected to the receiving hole 2, the water flow entering the receiving hole 2 can be discharged from the drainage hole 3, which can reduce the water accumulation in the receiving hole 2 and avoid excessive water accumulation in the receiving hole 2 affecting the wave-breaking effect.

[0032] Furthermore, inclined surfaces are formed on all sides of the top of the block 1, which can reduce damage to the block 1 caused by the impact of waves.

[0033] The holes of the texture component 4 have different cross-sectional shapes, which can be suitable shapes such as polygons, circles, ellipses, etc., or can also be a combination of suitable shapes such as polygons, circles, ellipses, etc. The receiving holes 2 on different blocks 1 can be configured with texture components 4 with different patterns.

[0034] In order to improve the aesthetics and landscape of the block 1, the texture pattern of the texture component 4 can be similar to or basically consistent with the door and window frame pattern in traditional Chinese wooden buildings.

[0035] Specifically, the block 1 is a prefabricated concrete component, and the cross-sectional size thereof is 0.8m*0.8m. Different blocks 1 may also have different heights to construct tidal pools of different heights and sizes.

[0036] Second embodiment

[0037] The difference from the first embodiment is that in this embodiment, the texture member 4 includes a plurality of staggered or cross-connected baffles disposed in the receiving hole 2, and the top surface of the baffles is substantially flush with the top surface of the block 1. The top surfaces of these staggered or cross-connected baffles can form a variety of texture patterns. The top of the baffle is substantially flush with the top of the receiving hole 2, and the bottom thereof is suspended, that is, the bottom end of the baffle is not connected to the bottom surface of the receiving hole 2, so that the water flow entering the hole of the texture member 4 directly flows out from the texture member 4 into the cavity of the receiving hole 2.

[0038] The bottom end of the partition may also be in contact with the bottom of the accommodating hole 2. In order to avoid water accumulation in the holes of the texture component 4, a water hole may be provided near the bottom of the partition to prevent excessive water accumulation in one or several holes of the texture component 4 from affecting the overall wave-breaking effect of the block 1.

[0039] Third embodiment

[0040] The difference from the first embodiment is that in this embodiment, the texture member 4 includes a plurality of vertically extending vertical tubes disposed in the receiving hole 2, and two adjacent vertical tubes are fixedly connected. In other words, the plurality of vertical tubes connected together constitute the texture member 4. The top surface of the vertical tube is substantially flush with the top surface of the receiving hole, and different numbers of vertical tubes or different arrangements of the plurality of vertical tubes can form different texture patterns.

[0041] The bottom end of the vertical pipe is in contact with the bottom surface of the accommodating hole 2, and a water hole can be provided at the lower part of the vertical pipe to avoid water accumulation in the vertical pipe.

[0042] It should be understood that the cross-sectional shape of the vertical pipe can be circular, polygonal or other suitable shapes.

[0043] like Figure 3As shown, the utility model also discloses a tidal pool comprising a plurality of the structural units described above.

[0044] The tidal pool has a pool wall and a pool bottom, wherein the pool wall of the tidal pool is obviously higher than the height of the pool bottom, that is, the tidal pool is roughly in a shape with higher sides and relatively lower middle position, which can temporarily accommodate water flow.

[0045] The pool wall around the tidal pool is composed of multiple structural units and multiple assembly blocks 5 arranged in sequence, wherein the assembly blocks 5 are quadrangular prism concrete prefabricated blocks, and their length and width are basically consistent with the length and width of the structural units; the pool bottom of the tidal pool is also formed by arranging multiple structural units and assembly blocks 5, the difference is that the height of the structural units and assembly blocks 5 constituting the pool bottom is generally lower than the height of the structural units and assembly blocks 5 constituting the pool wall. In addition, by constructing a tidal pool using the structural units and assembly blocks 5, the tidal pool can be quickly constructed, and the consistency and aesthetics of different tidal pools can be improved.

[0046] Furthermore, the different structural units, structural units and assembly blocks 5 constituting the wall of the tidal pool have different heights, that is, the top surface of the wall of the tidal pool is also undulating, which can improve the wave dissipation and wave prevention effects of the seawall provided with the tidal pool structure. Similarly, the structural units and assembly blocks 5 of the bottom of the tidal pool can also have different heights, that is, the bottom of the tidal pool is also undulating, so that the tidal pool has a better potential for dissipating the waves.

[0047] When constructing the tidal pool, the drainage hole 3 of the structural unit should be basically parallel to the embankment axis or the shore line, and the flowing water in the tidal pool can pass through the structural unit through the drainage hole 3, so that the water flow can be achieved in the tidal pool or between two adjacent tidal pools.

[0048] Furthermore, in order to increase the aesthetics of the tidal pool and the differences between different tidal pools, while also improving the wave-breaking capacity of the seawall tidal pool structure, the walls of different tidal pools are also configured to have different heights.

[0049] The tidal pool can also intercept and store seawater, providing a good growth and reproduction place for marine life near the coast, and increasing the ecology of the seawall or coastal area.

[0050] Optionally, since the top of the structural unit is provided with a receiving hole 2, plants suitable for growing in a seawater environment can be planted on the structural unit to improve the ecology of the tidal pool. In other embodiments, salt-tolerant plants can also be planted in the tidal pool to improve the ecology and landscape effect of the tidal pool. At the same time, the aquatic plants planted in the receiving hole 2 can also improve the wave reduction effect of the tidal pool.

[0051] The joints between two adjacent structural units, between a structural unit and the assembly block 5, and between the assembly blocks 5 and the assembly blocks 5 on the wall or bottom structure of the tidal pool are poured with fine stone concrete or filled with mortar. On the one hand, the connection between two adjacent structural units, or between a structural unit and the assembly block 5, can be strengthened. On the other hand, the sealing of the tidal pool can be improved, so that the tidal pool can store a certain amount of water within a period of time, providing the necessary conditions for the growth of coastal organisms in the tidal pool, and increasing the ecological effect of the tidal pool.

[0052] Optionally, a certain amount of gravel is scattered on the top surface of the pool wall, and the gravel can further increase the roughness of the top surface of the pool wall, thereby further increasing the wave reduction effect of the tidal pool.

[0053] Optionally, a large amount of crushed stones are scattered in the tidal pool to form a crushed stone layer or a gravel layer. The crushed stone layer or the gravel layer can provide a large number of gaps, which can improve the wave-breaking effect on the one hand, and provide a richer living environment for different benthic organisms on the other hand.

[0054] The tidal pool is arranged at the foot of the seawall, and its layout elevation should be below the average high tide level. When the tide is low, water is stored in the tidal pool to meet the survival needs of more marine benthic organisms.

[0055] The above-mentioned related explanations and descriptions of the embodiments are for the purpose of facilitating the understanding and application of the present invention by ordinary technicians in the technical field. It is obvious that those familiar with the technical field can easily make various modifications to these contents and apply the general principles described herein to other embodiments without creative work. The present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned related explanations and descriptions of the embodiments. Improvements and modifications made by technicians in the field based on the disclosure of the present invention without departing from the scope of the present invention should be within the scope of protection of the present invention.
