DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] The utility model will be further described in detail below.

[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, a spray cooling and energy-saving rainwater chain combined with a traditional roof structure includes a power supply module 1, a control module 2, a rainwater collection mechanism 3 installed on the eaves, and a rainwater chain mechanism 4;

[0032] The rainwater collection mechanism 3 is used to collect and store rainwater;

[0033] The top of the rainwater chain mechanism 4 is fixedly connected to the rainwater collection mechanism 3, and is used to receive and drain the water flowing out of the rainwater collection mechanism 3; the rainwater chain mechanism 4 is provided with a spray device for atomizing water;

[0034] The power supply module 1 is connected to the control module 2 and the spray device respectively, and is used to provide power to the control module 2 and the spray device;

[0035] The control module 2 is connected to the rainwater collection mechanism 3 and the spray device respectively, and is used to control the rainwater collection mechanism 3 to drain water to the rainwater chain mechanism 4 and to control the start of the spray device.

[0036] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the rainwater collection mechanism 3 includes a rainwater collection eaves 31 and a gutter 32. The rainwater collection eaves 31 is arranged in the middle of the eaves; the gutter 32 is correspondingly arranged below the rainwater collection eaves 31, and the gutter 32 is connected to the rainwater chain mechanism 4 for temporary storage of rainwater. The gutter 32 is provided with a storage bin 33, an overflow bin 34 and a valve 35. The storage bin 33 is correspondingly arranged below the rainwater collection eaves 31, and the overflow bin 34 is arranged on one side of the storage bin 33. The storage bin 33 is connected to the bottom of the overflow bin 34 and is installed with a valve 35. The valve 35 is connected to the control module 2, and the rainwater chain mechanism 4 is connected to the overflow bin 34. A filter 36 is arranged between the rainwater collection eaves 31 and the storage bin 33.

[0037] Preferably, the rainwater collection mechanism 3 can be connected to the water supply system of the building through a water pipe to the rainwater collection eaves 31. Therefore, when there is a lack of rainwater, the external water supply system can be used to circulate spray cooling in hot weather and create a rainwater chain falling water landscape.

[0038] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, the rain chain mechanism 4 includes a rain chain component 41 and a lead 42. The rain chain component 41 is fixedly arranged on the lead 42. The top of the lead 42 is connected to the gutter 32 for draining the water in the gutter 32. The spray device is arranged in the rain chain component 41. The rain chain component 41 is provided with an inner layer 43 and an outer layer 44. The lower end of the inner layer 43 is sealed and fixedly connected to the lead 42. The inner layer 43 is used to receive and store water from the rainwater collection mechanism 3. The outer layer 44 is sleeved outside the inner layer 43 and is relatively fixedly connected to the inner layer 43. A gap is provided between the lower end of the outer layer 44 and the lead 42. The water in the inner layer 43 overflows and flows along the outer layer 44 through the gap to the lead 42 to drain downward. The spray device is arranged in the inner layer 43. The spray device is an atomizing sheet 5. The atomizing sheet 5 floats on the water surface of the rain chain component 41. One end of the atomizing sheet 5 is connected to the control module 2 through the lead 42. The rain chain component 41 is a double-layer gong-shaped structure. The rainwater collection mechanism 3 is hung with a plurality of rainwater chain mechanisms 4 , and each rainwater chain mechanism 4 is provided with at least one rain chain component 41 .

[0039] like Figure 2 As shown, the power supply module 1 is a solar power supply module, which includes a photovoltaic solar panel 11 and a battery 12 installed on the roof. The photovoltaic solar panel 11 is connected to the battery 12 to convert solar energy into electrical energy; the battery 12 is connected to the control module 2 and the spray device respectively. Figure 6 As shown, the photovoltaic solar panel 11 is provided with a plurality of solar panel units 13, the solar panel units 13 are of the same size as the traditional tile units, and the solar panel units 13 are of a wavy structure, wherein the grooves of the wavy structure are fixed to the tile hanging strips 15 by screws 14, and the adjacent two solar panel units 13 are engaged with each other and filled with caulking agent. The whole roof adopts a staggered overlap method. The battery 12 is hidden under the roof structure.

[0040] like Figure 2 and 4 As shown, the control module 2 includes a temperature sensor 21 and a controller 22. The temperature sensor 21 is connected to the controller 22 to sense the ambient temperature and give a signal to the controller 22. The controller 22 is respectively connected to the valve 35 and the spray device. When the temperature sensor 21 senses that the ambient temperature is too high, it sends a signal to the controller 22. The controller 22 controls the valve 35 to open, and the water in the storage bin 33 flows from the bottom of the gutter 32 into the overflow bin 34 and flows down along the lead 42 into the rainwater chain mechanism 4. The controller 22 controls the spray device to open, and the spray device atomizes the water stored in the inner layer 43 of the rainwater chain mechanism 4 to evaporate and cool it down.

[0041] Working principle of the utility model: Rainwater flows down along the roof, reaches the rainwater collection eaves 31, and is filtered and purified by the filter 36, and then stored in the storage bin 33 of the gutter 32 below. When the storage bin 33 is full of water, the excess water overflows from the top, flows to the overflow bin 34, and flows down along the rainwater chain mechanism 4. For the water stored in the storage bin 33, in the detection of the temperature sensor 21, when the weather is too hot, the temperature sensor 21 sends a signal to the controller 22, controls the valve 35 to open, and the water in the storage bin 33 slowly flows down along the rainwater chain mechanism 4 and reaches each rain chain component 41. The water is first buffered in the inner layer 43 of the rain chain component 41, and the water is atomized by the atomizing sheet 5 to achieve the effect of evaporation and cooling. The remaining water is guided to the next rain chain component 41 through the outer layer 44 and the lead 42.

[0042] The main functions of the utility model are as follows: on rainy days, rainwater flows down along the roof and is stored in the rainwater collection mechanism 3. After the rainwater collection mechanism 3 is full of rainwater, the rainwater overflows from the rainwater collection mechanism 3 and is drained down along the rainwater chain mechanism 4, forming a good decorative effect and sound landscape. For example, on sunny days with high temperatures, the control module 2 can control the connection between the rainwater collection mechanism 3 and the rainwater chain mechanism 4 according to the temperature, and the stored rainwater flows from the rainwater collection mechanism 3 to the rainwater chain mechanism 4. Part of the water stored in the rainwater chain mechanism 4 is evaporated by the spray device to achieve an environmental cooling effect; part of the rainwater is discharged through the rainwater chain mechanism 4 to create a landscape of rainwater flowing down the rainwater chain. The utility model improves the functionality of the traditional rainwater chain, making it usable in both sunny and rainy days. In addition to collecting and draining rainwater from the roof on rainy days to achieve energy-saving effects and create a rainwater chain falling water landscape, on sunny days with high temperatures, the stored rainwater can be transported to the rainwater chain mechanism 4 through the rainwater collection mechanism 3 to create a rainwater chain falling water landscape, and the rainwater can be evaporated and atomized through the spray device to achieve the effect of humidification and cooling.

Any other changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, and simplifications that do not deviate from the spirit and principle of the present invention should be equivalent replacement methods and are included in the protection scope of the present invention.
