Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of rainwater collection and reuse, and is a novel rainwater recycling device suitable for rainwater collection and reuse on viaducts. Background Art

[0002] The existing urban roads have a large traffic volume, and the land resources on both sides of the roads are limited. In order to ease the traffic pressure, viaducts are widely used in urban roads. Green belts are generally set up under viaducts, which can not only wrap the bridge piers to ensure driving safety, but also improve the road landscape effect. However, the plants in the green belts under the viaducts need to be watered regularly because they cannot receive natural rainwater. The failure to fully utilize the rainwater on the bridge has caused a waste of natural resources; the rainwater on the bridge deck directly flows into the road drainage system, which increases the pressure on the municipal pipe network and does not conform to the sponge city design concept. Therefore, how to improve the rainwater utilization system of the viaduct deck so that it can provide sufficient and clean rainwater for irrigation is an urgent problem to be solved.

[0003] At present, the most common rainwater storage facilities on the market are water tanks or rain gardens set up under viaducts. The core of these facilities is to store and directly use rainwater without filtering it, which causes pollutants on the bridge surface to directly enter the plant root system with rainwater, which may cause poor plant growth or even death. Another approach is to set up buried civil engineering rainwater collection and reuse facilities under the viaduct. This approach achieves rainwater purification and reuse by setting up waste wells, overflow wells, sedimentation tanks, and reuse pump rooms. This type of system has relatively complete functions, but it has many structures and a large one-time investment. In addition, since the system is an integrated construction, the subsequent cleaning work is relatively cumbersome.

[0023] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0024] As attached Figure 1 As shown, a new rainwater recycling device under an elevated bridge comprises a rainwater collection and processing device (1-10, 14, 15, 19), a power and control device (11, 12), and an automatic irrigation system (16-18). The rainwater collection and processing device is arranged under the elevated bridge and above the ground. At the beginning of rainfall, rainwater on the elevated bridge deck is discharged from the downpipe through the grille 2, the permeable pipe 4, the waste pipe 6, and the overflow pipe 8 to the municipal rainwater system under the elevated bridge; as the amount of rainwater increases, the waste pipe is full, the waste device 7 is closed, and the rainwater is filtered through the filter material layer on the outer wall of the riser and enters the rainwater collection bin 10. After sedimentation in the bin, the rainwater is controlled by the power and control device (11, 12) and the automatic irrigation system (16-18) to complete the task of irrigating the greening under the elevated bridge.

[0025] The top water inlet system of the rainwater collection and treatment device comprises a water inlet system (1-3), a filtering device (4, 5, 9), an automatic flow abandonment device (6-7), an overflow pipe 8, and a rainwater collection bin 10; the water inlet system comprises a water inlet riser 1, a grille 2, and a coarse residue storage area 3. The water inlet riser 1 is connected to an elevated drainage pipe, the inlet of the filtering device is partially enlarged and a grille 2 is provided, larger impurities are intercepted in the coarse residue storage area 3, and primary filtered water enters the filtering device. The size and number of the grilles 2 vary with the diameter and number of the water inlet pipe and the size of the collection and treatment device.

[0026] The filtering device includes a vertically arranged permeable pipe 4 and a filter material layer 5. The top of the permeable pipe 4 is opposite to the grille 2. The upper side wall of the permeable pipe 4 is provided with a permeable hole. The filter material layer 5 is wrapped around the outside of the permeable hole. The upper side wall of the permeable pipe 4 is also provided with an overflow pipe 8 connected thereto. When the rainwater collected in the rainwater collection bin 10 is close to full, it is discharged to the sewer through the overflow pipe 8; the lower side wall of the permeable pipe 4 is connected to a transversely arranged waste flow pipe 6, and a waste flow device 7 is provided in the middle of the waste flow pipe 6. The bottom of the permeable pipe 4 is connected to a manual valve to form a fine slag storage area 9 at the bottom of the permeable pipe 4, and the manual valve is opened regularly to release the fine slag.

[0027] The filter material layer 5 is composed of crushed stone, ceramsite, etc., and the filter material gradation, thickness and other parameters are determined according to the filtration flow rate. The end of the waste pipe 6 is connected to the overflow pipe 8, which can not only reduce the length of the water pipe and reduce the cost, but also reduce the number of drainage outlets, making it convenient to connect to the municipal drainage system.

[0028] Specifically, according to the characteristics of poor water quality and small amount of initial rainwater, a flow abandonment device 7 is set, and the flow abandonment device 7 has a columnar container, a float and a plug; the opening and closing of the drain port is controlled by the float, the plug and the columnar container. When the water level in the water-permeable pipe 4 does not reach the set water level, the flow abandonment device 7 is in an open state under the gravity of the plug; as the rainfall intensity increases, when the water level in the water-permeable pipe 4 reaches the set water level, the flow abandonment device 7 is turned to a closed state under the buoyancy of the float. The initial rainwater is abandoned to the municipal drainage network. When the amount of collected rainwater is large, the float floats up with the help of buoyancy and the plug closes the drain port due to continuous water pressure. The rainwater is collected in the rainwater collection bin 10 through the filter material layer 5.

[0029] Among them, the diameter of the abandoned flow pipe 6 is smaller than that of the permeable pipe 4, and the diameter ratio is determined according to the thickness of the abandoned flow. The slope of the abandoned flow pipe 6 is opposite to the direction of the water flow. As the rainfall increases, the abandoned flow pipe 6 changes from a non-full flow to a full flow, and at the same time, the water level in the permeable pipe 4 rises, driving the float in the abandoned flow device 7 to rise, closing the water hole in the abandoned flow device 7, and achieving the effect of closing the abandoned flow pipe.

[0030] A maintenance port 14 is provided on the top of the rainwater collection bin 10 to facilitate the maintenance of the equipment by the staff at a later stage; two ventilation pipes 15 with a height difference of more than 300 mm are provided on the top of the rainwater collection bin 10 to maintain the air circulation inside the rainwater collection bin 10, to remove toxic and harmful gases in time, and to extend the service life of the equipment; a drain pipe 19 and a maintenance valve are provided at the bottom of the rainwater collection bin 10 to effectively drain the rainwater and precipitated impurities in the bin, so that maintenance personnel can enter the bin to maintain the device conveniently.

[0031] The power and control device includes a solar panel 13, a booster pump 11 and a PLC control device 12. The solar panel 13 is arranged outside the elevated fence. The solar panel 13 generates electricity through light energy and stores it in a battery to power the booster pump 11 and the PLC control device 12. The booster pump 11 is controlled to start and stop so that it can regularly supply water to the automatic irrigation system, thereby realizing the function of automatic irrigation of surrounding greenery, making full use of rainwater resources and effectively alleviating the drainage pressure of the municipal rainwater pipe network.

[0032] The automatic irrigation system includes a water supply network 16 and a number of greening watering devices; the water supply network 16 is reasonably designed according to factors such as the greening distribution and vegetation types under the viaduct; the greening watering device includes an automatic watering device or a manual watering device, wherein the automatic watering device is one or more of low-pressure pipeline water delivery, sprinkler irrigation, drip irrigation, and micro-irrigation; the specific greening watering device includes a greening watering device 17 and a greening watering device 2 18, which represent automatic watering devices and manual watering devices respectively. Different greening watering devices are selected according to actual needs to give full play to their economic and intelligent characteristics. The dynamic irrigation system includes but is not limited to sprinkler irrigation, micro-irrigation and other irrigation systems that can realize automatic control.
