Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of rainwater utilization on bridge decks of urban flyovers, in particular to an automatic sprinkler irrigation device utilizing rainwater from flyovers. Background Art

[0002] my country is seriously short of water resources. The per capita water resources in my country are 2055m 3 , only 25% of the global average, making it one of the 13 countries with the most scarce per capita water resources in the world. With the acceleration of industrialization, pollutant emissions have increased, and the reuse of fresh water resources, especially in cities, is of great significance.

[0003] As the most important source of fresh water, most of the rainwater is discharged into rivers through sewer pipes and then flows into the sea. This part of water resources cannot be fully utilized. For example, the rainwater runoff formed by the bridge deck of the city overpass is mostly discharged directly into the municipal pipe network through the bridge deck rainwater drainage pipe, and finally enters the sewage treatment plant or is discharged into the river. However, the green belt under the overpass is blocked from being irrigated by rainwater. It is even necessary to irrigate the green belt under the bridge with water on rainy days, forming a contradictory phenomenon that rainwater cannot be used and additional municipal water is needed. In addition, after the rainwater on the overpass bridge deck flows into the municipal pipe network, it may cause the municipal pipe network to overflow, forming waterlogging on the road surface, affecting urban traffic and the normal life of residents. Excessive rainwater entering the municipal pipe will increase the operating pressure of the municipal pipe network and the treatment pressure of the sewage treatment plant, causing the sewage treatment plant to overload, and ultimately leading to substandard sewage discharge and more water resources being polluted.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0042] The principles and features of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0043] refer to Figures 1 to 4 The utility model provides an automatic sprinkler irrigation device using rainwater from an overpass, comprising: a rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 arranged on a bridge pier 1, a sprinkler system and a spray system connected to the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2, a filter assembly arranged above the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2, and a central controller.

[0044] The rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 is used to collect and store rainwater and to precipitate debris such as mud in the rainwater. The rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 is set on the pier 1 of the overpass and is much higher than the ground, so that the rainwater inside has a large gravitational potential energy. The rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 can be set to a box shape or a cylindrical shape, and can be made of high-strength synthetic plastic or cast concrete; as an example, the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 is a rectangular box-shaped structure, the bottom of which is installed on a bracket, and the bracket is fixed to the pier 1 by expansion screws, and the bracket is welded by angle steel.

[0045] A sedimentation tank water inlet 4 is provided on the top of the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2, and the sedimentation tank water inlet 4 is connected to the bridge deck rainwater discharge pipe 3 or connected to the bridge deck rainwater outlet through the bridge deck rainwater collection pipe, so as to discharge the rainwater runoff collected on the bridge deck of the overpass into the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2. The bridge deck rainwater collection pipe is made of PVC or HDPE material, and the pipe diameter and length of the bridge deck rainwater collection pipe and the size of the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 are designed after being comprehensively determined according to the local rainfall intensity, bridge deck catchment area, overpass bridge deck runoff and other coefficients.

[0046] A switchable sedimentation tank cover 5 is provided on the top of the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2. The sedimentation tank cover 5 is generally made of synthetic plastic or stainless steel and is connected to the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 through hinges or hinge seats. When the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 5 needs to be inspected or desilted, the sedimentation tank cover 5 can be opened and staff can enter to perform operations.

[0047] In order to prevent debris such as stones from entering the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2, a filter assembly is provided outside the sedimentation tank water inlet 4, and the filter assembly is connected to the bridge deck rainwater discharge pipe 3 or the bridge deck rainwater collection pipe. The filter assembly can use a flexible filter net or a rigid filter plate.

[0048] As an example, refer to Figures 6 to 8The filter assembly includes a filter plate 23, a filter plate enclosure 24, and a debris discharge pipe 25. The filter plate 23 is formed by welding a plurality of round steel bars in parallel, and gaps are left between adjacent round steel bars to facilitate the passage of rainwater and filter out debris. The filter plate 23 is tiltedly arranged inside the filter plate enclosure 24. When debris hits the filter plate 23, the debris slides into the inclined groove below the filter plate enclosure 24 due to the tilted arrangement of the filter plate 23. The upper part of the filter plate enclosure 24 is a detachable top plate, which is convenient for installing and replacing the filter plate 23. The top plate is connected to the bridge deck rainwater discharge pipe 3 or the bridge deck rainwater collection pipe. The filter plate 23 is located below the bridge deck rainwater discharge pipe 3 or the bridge deck rainwater collection pipe. At the same time, the filter plate 23 is located above the water inlet 4 of the sedimentation tank. The filter plate enclosure 24 can also prevent hard objects such as stones from splashing after colliding with the filter plate 23, thereby avoiding falling objects from high altitude. The bottom of the chute of the filter plate enclosure 24 is connected to the drainage pipe 25, which is located at the lower part of the filter plate enclosure 24 and is used to guide and collect the debris inside the filter plate enclosure 24; in order to facilitate the unified collection of debris, a stainless steel trash can with holes is placed under the drainage pipe 25, and the outlet end of the drainage pipe 25 is about one meter above the ground; of course, the outlet end of the drainage pipe 25 can also be blocked, and the debris is uniformly discharged when the garbage collection truck passes. By arranging a filter assembly outside the water inlet 4 of the sedimentation tank, the debris entering the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 can be effectively reduced, ensuring the normal use of the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2.

[0049] Reference again Figure 4 A drop plate 28 is arranged on the inner side of the water inlet 4 of the sedimentation tank. The drop plate 28 is two long strips with opposite inclination directions and overlapping parts in the vertical direction, which are respectively connected to the vertical side walls of the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 and under the top cover. When the rainwater in the bridge deck rainwater discharge pipe 3 or the bridge deck rainwater collection pipe is discharged to the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2, it must first pass through the two drop plates 28. The drop plate 28 reduces the flow rate of the water flow and changes the direction of the water flow, reduces the disturbance of the water flow to the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2, reduces the disturbance of the rainwater in the tank, accelerates the sedimentation efficiency of the silt in the rainwater in the tank, and at the same time improves the service life of the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 to a certain extent.

[0050] The bottom of the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 is provided with a sedimentation tank mud discharge port 18, and the sedimentation tank mud discharge port 18 is plugged with a second right-angle elbow 20, and the second right-angle elbow 20 is connected to the sedimentation tank mud discharge pipe 19, and the sedimentation tank mud discharge pipe 19 is provided with a second solenoid valve 21. After the rainwater in the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 is precipitated, the suspended matter insoluble in water such as silt is discharged from the sedimentation tank mud discharge pipe 19, and the sedimentation tank mud discharge pipe 19 is made of PVC or HDPE material, and its pipe diameter is determined according to the size of the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2. The mud discharge time of the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 can be carried out simultaneously with the dredging of the municipal interception well, the municipal sewage well, and the municipal pipeline. The second solenoid valve 21 installed on the sedimentation tank mud discharge pipe 19 is opened when the mud is discharged, and the sediment at the bottom of the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 is sucked out through the sedimentation tank mud discharge pipe 19 by a municipal dredging vehicle. When the mud is discharged, the clarity of the water discharged from the sedimentation tank mud discharge pipe 19 shall prevail.

[0051] Preferably, a water turbidity detector is provided on the sedimentation tank discharge pipe 19, and the water turbidity detector is communicated with the central controller to detect whether the sediment deposited at the bottom of the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 is completely discharged. When the turbidity of the outlet water becomes low, the sludge discharge is stopped to avoid excessive loss of the collected rainwater.

[0052] The rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 is an above-ground facility, and its sludge discharge difficulty is much less than the dredging and silt discharge difficulty of the underground municipal pipe network. A part of the rainwater with silt is precipitated on the ground, thereby reducing the amount of silt entering the municipal rainwater pipe network, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing the dredging pressure of the municipal rainwater pipe network. The sludge discharge of the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 is carried out simultaneously with the dredging of the municipal pipe network, and there is no need to arrange manual and mechanical treatment separately, thereby achieving the purpose of low-cost sludge discharge of the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2.

[0053] Preferably, the bottom of the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 is set to be conical, and the mud and other debris in the rainwater in the tank settles under the action of gravity, and the conical structure of the tank bottom can collect the debris together, thereby accelerating the sedimentation speed of mud and sand and the mud discharge efficiency.

[0054] An overflow trough 6 is provided inside the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2. The overflow trough 6 fits the upper pool wall of the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 and is designed along the pool length. The overflow trough 6 is the same length as the pool length, and the width and depth are determined according to the size of the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2. The overflow trough 6 and the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 can be designed as an integrated structure, made of the same material as the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2, and its position is staggered from the position of the sedimentation tank water inlet 4 to prevent rainwater from being directly discharged from the overflow trough 6. A triangular weir 7 is provided at the overflow trough 6. The triangular weir 7 can make the overflow in the pool uniform, change the water flow direction and speed of the rainwater entering the overflow trough 7, and the triangular weir 7 can also intercept floating debris and flow into the overflow trough 6, wherein the triangular weir 7 is a plate with serrations on the top. An overflow outlet 8 penetrating the inner and outer walls is arranged on the vertical side wall of the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2. The overflow outlet 8 is located at the end of the overflow trough 6. The overflow outlet 8 is connected to an overflow outlet pipe 9. The overflow outlet pipe 9 is connected to the rainwater outlet of the ground road. When the amount of water entering the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 exceeds its maximum water storage capacity, the excess rainwater passes through the overflow trough 6 and enters the municipal rainwater pipe network along the overflow outlet pipe 9, thereby discharging excess rainwater and ensuring the normal use of the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2.

[0055] Preferably, a mud guard 27 is provided on the triangular weir 7, and the mud guard 27 can reduce the floating of sediment, reduce the amount of sediment entering the overflow outlet pipe 9, and further reduce the amount of sediment entering the municipal rainwater pipe network.

[0056] A sedimentation tank outlet 10 is provided on the lower side wall of the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2, and the sedimentation tank outlet 10 is connected to a sedimentation tank outlet pipe 11 through a first right angle elbow 12, and the sedimentation tank outlet pipe 11 is arranged along the vertical direction of the bridge pier 1. As an example, the distance between the sedimentation tank outlet 10 and the bottom of the tank is one-fourth of the height of the tank, which can ensure that there is enough clear rainwater to use and that the mud and sand at the bottom of the tank will not enter the sedimentation tank outlet pipe 11.

[0057] In order to prevent the sprinkler system and the spraying system from being blocked by sediment, a two-phase separator 26 is provided inside the sedimentation tank outlet 10 to separate rainwater and sediment, thereby reducing the sediment content entering the sprinkler system / spraying system and ensuring the normal operation of the entire device.

[0058] The spray system and the sprinkler system are both connected to the water outlet pipe 11 of the sedimentation tank, and the spray system is located at the upper part of the sprinkler system. The water inlet pipe 14 of the spray system and the water inlet pipe 16 of the sprinkler system are both connected to the water outlet pipe 11 of the sedimentation tank through the three-way joint 22. Sprinkler heads 15 are evenly distributed on the water inlet pipe 14 of the spray system, and sprinkler heads 17 are evenly distributed on the water inlet pipe 16 of the sprinkler system. The spray heads 15 of the spray system and the sprinkler heads 17 of the sprinkler system are both arranged above the green belt. The rainwater entering the spray system / spraying system is sprayed out through the spray heads 15 / spray heads 17. Since there is a certain height difference between the spray system / spraying system and the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2, the pressure generated can make the rainwater sprayed out from the spray heads 15 / spray heads 17 in atomized form, spraying and watering the plants in the green belt and performing dust reduction treatment on the road surface and the air. The entire sprinkler irrigation process is completed automatically without power.

[0059] A first solenoid valve 13 is provided on the water inlet pipe 14 of the sprinkler system and the water inlet pipe 16 of the spraying system. The first solenoid valve 13 is connected to the street lights around the overpass or other similar municipal wires with electric wires. The first solenoid valve 13 can automatically control the circulation of rainwater in the water inlet pipe 14 of the sprinkler system and the water inlet pipe 16 of the spraying system. The first solenoid valve 13 controls the flow of rainwater in the pipe through a time controller, thereby controlling the spraying time of the sprinkler system and the spraying time of the spraying system. The specific duration and interval of spraying and spraying can be designed according to local climate conditions and the size of the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2.

[0060] refer to Figure 5 The water inlet pipe 14 of the spray system is arranged parallel to the ground. The specific height of the water inlet pipe 14 of the spray system from the ground is determined according to the specific geographical conditions under the overpass. The height cannot be too high, otherwise the water pressure of the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 is not enough to support the spray atomization effect. It cannot be too low, otherwise the spray atomization has a poor dust reduction effect on the road surface and the air. The water inlet pipe 14 of the spray system uses PVC or HDPE material, and its pipe diameter is adapted to the water outlet pipe 11 of the sedimentation tank. The number and length of the water inlet pipe 14 of the spray system are determined according to the green area and road width under the overpass. If the green belt and road area are large, multiple spray pipes are arranged in parallel to spray the green belt and reduce dust on the road surface and the air; if the green belt and road length are long, they can be connected to the spray system of the adjacent rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 to form a whole to maintain the stability of the spray pipe.

[0061] Similarly, the water inlet pipe 16 of the spraying system is arranged parallel to the ground. The specific height of the water inlet pipe 16 of the spraying system from the ground is determined according to the specific geographical conditions under the overpass. The height cannot be too high, otherwise it will affect the passage of passers-by, and it cannot be too low, otherwise the spray head 17 is easily blocked by the ground mud. The diameter of the water inlet pipe 16 of the spraying system is determined according to the size of the water outlet pipe 11 of the sedimentation tank and the green area. The number and length of the water inlet pipe 14 of the spraying system are determined according to the green area under the overpass. If the green belt area is large, multiple spray pipes are arranged in parallel to spray the green belt; if the green belt is long, it can be connected to the spray system of the adjacent rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 to form a whole. If the spray pipe is long, a ground bracket is installed to maintain the stability of the pipe.

[0062] As an example, the sedimentation tank outlet pipe 11 is connected to the spray system water inlet pipe 14 through a three-way joint 22 at two meters above the ground. The sedimentation tank outlet pipe 11 is connected to the spray system water inlet pipe 16 through another three-way joint 22 at twenty centimeters above the ground, and the other end of the three-way joint 22 in the spray system is blocked and used as a pipeline inspection port.

[0063] Preferably, an infrared level meter is provided on the inner top of the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2, and the level meter works in conjunction with the first solenoid valve 13 and the second solenoid valve 21 respectively. The level meter measures the water volume information of the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 and transmits it to the central controller. The central controller then controls the first solenoid valve 13 to spray different water volumes according to the different liquid levels in the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2, thereby improving the utilization efficiency of rainwater in the tank. When it is necessary to drain mud from the tank, the central controller instructs the second solenoid valve 21 to open the mud discharge. At the same time, the central controller determines whether the mud and sand are completely discharged through the data of real-time dynamic detection by the water turbidity detector. When the mud and sand content in the water quality reaches the preset standard, the central controller controls the second solenoid valve 21 to close.

[0064] The central controller uses a programmable chip for functional programming, and is respectively connected to the first solenoid valve 13, the second solenoid valve 21, the water turbidity detector, and the infrared liquid level meter for communicating, and is used for receiving signals and data from the water turbidity detector and the infrared liquid level meter, and making appropriate instructions to the first solenoid valve 13 and the second solenoid valve 21 after judging according to the signals and data. The chip model used by the central controller can be selected from the STM32 series, and the transmission line of the central controller is connected to the street lights around the overpass or nearby municipal power lines.

[0065] The sprinkler irrigation device of the utility model collects rainwater runoff from the bridge deck of the flyover, and guides it into the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 after filtering. After the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 is full of rainwater, the excess rainwater enters the overflow outlet pipe 9 through the overflow trough 6 arranged at the top. The overflow outlet pipe 9 is connected to the ground rainwater outlet. The rainwater overflowing from the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 finally flows into the municipal rainwater pipe network. After the rainwater collected in the rainwater collection sedimentation tank 2 is initially precipitated, the upper turbid and clear rainwater flows out from the sedimentation tank outlet pipe 11. The sedimentation tank outlet pipe 11 is connected to the spray system inlet pipe 14 / spraying system inlet pipe 16 through a tee.
