[0002] Many cities in my country do not have a perfect management of rainwater drainage systems, which often leads to garbage accumulation and blockage of rainwater outlets in rainstorms, resulting in local waterlogging and even waterlogging. The rainwater outlet is the main way for rainwater to enter the urban rainwater pipe network or combined pipe network. It is usually set at the edge of both sides of the road, and the drainage ditches on both sides of the road are paved with rainwater grates for water flow.
[0003] At present, the mainstream rainwater grates in the market adopt a flat grate structure, with multiple long strips of water outlets on the rainwater grates. The width of the water outlets is about 20-40mm. Due to the influence of factors such as weather and sanitation cleaning methods, there are usually garbage such as leaves, plastic bags, and sediment inside the rainwater outlets, which can easily cause the rainwater outlets to be blocked. At the same time, the water flow formed by rainwater will bring some sediment, silt and solid garbage into the rainwater connecting pipe of the rainwater outlet facilities, gradually forming siltation of sediment and garbage in the pipe. In severe cases, it will even completely block the rainwater drainage pipe, thereby paralyzing the local rainwater drainage system and almost losing the drainage function, causing waterlogging in urban blocks and rainwater backflow in residential areas, which will have an adverse impact on the transportation system of the town and the daily life of urban residents and property losses.

[0031] Please see attached Figures 1 to 5A new type of rain grate in one embodiment of the utility model includes a main frame 10 and a lily leaf seal 20, wherein the main frame 10 has a drainage hole (not shown in the figure) for water to flow through, and the lily leaf seal 20 is installed at the drainage hole. The lily leaf seal 20 has an open water flow state and a closed blocking state. When the lily leaf seal 20 is in the open water flow state, rainwater flows into the existing drainage system (not shown in the figure) through the lily leaves. When the lily leaf seal 20 is in the closed blocking state, the lily leaf seal 20 and the main frame 10 together form a partition assembly (not shown in the figure), so as to isolate external debris and prevent external debris, such as leaves, garbage bags, etc., from entering the existing drainage system. Among them, the existing drainage system can be a rainwater grate well or rainwater ditch in the prior art; the present application can install the lily blade seal 20 at the drainage hole of the main frame 10, and can use the lily blade seal 20 and the connecting assembly 30 in the rainwater grate to upgrade and transform the existing rainwater grate drainage facilities, and directly install them on the existing rainwater grate facilities.
[0032] As a preferred embodiment, the lily leaf seal 20 is connected to the main frame 10 through a connecting assembly 30, and the connecting assembly 30 includes a first connecting mechanism 310, a second connecting mechanism 320 and a third connecting mechanism 330, wherein the first connecting mechanism 310 is connected to the bottom of the lily leaf seal 20, the second connecting mechanism 320 is connected to the bottom of the main frame 10, and the third connecting mechanism 330 is connected between the first connecting mechanism 310 and the second connecting mechanism 320.
[0033] As a preferred embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, the first connecting mechanism 310 includes a middle arch section 311 with an upward opening and two side horizontal sections 312 respectively connected to the two ends of the middle arch section 311, each of the side horizontal sections 312 is provided with a first vertical bolt hole (not shown) for the first bolt 313 to pass through, and the main frame 10 is provided with a second vertical bolt hole (not shown) arranged corresponding to the first vertical bolt hole, and the side horizontal section 312 is connected to the main frame 10 by the first bolt 313 passing through the first vertical bolt hole and the second vertical bolt hole, and the middle arch section 311 is connected to the third connecting mechanism 330.
[0034] As a preferred embodiment, Figure 3-4As shown, the third connection mechanism 330 is an L-shaped rib 331, and the L-shaped rib 331 includes a fixed end 3311 and a movable end 3312. The fixed end 3311 is connected to the second connection mechanism 320, and the movable end 3312 is hinged to the middle arch section 311. As a preferred example, the fixed end 3311 and the second connection mechanism 320 can be integrally formed, such as Figure 5 As shown, the movable end 3312 and the middle arch section 311 are hinged by setting a movable end bite arm 3111 on the middle arch section 311, and a bite structure 3313 is correspondingly set on the movable end 3312 of the L-shaped rib 331. The movable connection between the L-shaped rib 331 and the middle arch section 311 is realized by the cooperation of the bite structure 3313 and the movable end bite arm 3111. The movable connection method can facilitate the installation and disassembly of the lily leaf seal 20, for example, it can realize local adjustment operations.
[0035] Furthermore, if Figure 1 As shown, the second connection mechanism 320 is a connection spoke 321, the connection spoke 321 is connected to the main frame 10, and the fixed end 3311 is connected to the connection spoke 321. Specifically, the connection spoke 321 and the main frame 10 can be integrally formed, or can be connected by bolts or other connection structures. For example, the main frame 10 is provided with a bolt hole for the second bolt 322 to pass through, and the connection spoke 321 is provided with a corresponding bolt hole. The connection of the connection spoke 321 and the main frame 10 is achieved by the second bolt 322 passing through the bolt hole.
[0036] As a preferred embodiment, the lily leaf seal 20 is made of composite resin. The composite resin material has the advantages of light weight, strong plasticity, environmental protection, corrosion resistance, recyclability and long service life. It is also worth noting that the material can match the open water-passing state and the closed blocking state of the lily leaf seal 20. For example, under dry season working conditions, the lily leaf seal 20 is in the initial state, that is, the closed blocking state, and the rain grate is in a closed state as a whole. Municipal management activities such as road sweeping will not wash garbage such as mud, silt and leaves into the rain grate well, avoiding blockage of rainwater drainage pipes and preventing waterlogging during the rainy season. Under rainy season conditions, when the rainfall is small, the gravity generated by the rainwater falling on the lily blade seal 20 will not cause the lily blade seal 20 to tilt, and the rainwater is absorbed by the water absorption capacity and permeability of the lily blade itself and flows into the rainwater grate well or the rainwater ditch; when the rainfall is heavy, the lily blades of the rainwater grate are in a tilted open state under the action of the gravity of the rainwater, and the rainwater flows into the rainwater grate well or the rainwater ditch through the opening created by the tilt of the lily blade for discharge.
[0037] As a preferred example, the width of the lily leaf seal 20 is set between 20-40 mm.
[0038] As a preferred example, the thickness of the lily blade seal 20 is set between 3-8 mm. It is understandable that in other embodiments, the width and width of the lily blade seal 20 can also be set to other values as needed, and the length of the lily blade seal 20 can be adjusted accordingly according to the drainage hole design of the rain grate main frame 10.
[0039] Further, the number of the lily leaf seals 20 is multiple, and the multiple lily leaf seals 20 are evenly spaced and arranged along the width direction of the main frame 10. Specifically, the number of the lily leaf seals 20 can be set by those skilled in the art according to actual needs. In a specific example, the number of the lily leaf seals 20 is set to 5, and the 5 lily leaf seals 20 are evenly spaced and arranged along the width direction of the main frame 10.
[0040] Furthermore, if Figure 1 As shown, the number of the connecting spokes 321 is two, each of which extends along the width direction of the main frame 10, and the two connecting spokes 321 are oppositely arranged on both sides of the lily leaf seal 20. Under this structure, both ends of each lily leaf seal 20 are connected to the corresponding connecting spokes 321 through the connecting assembly 30, so that the installation reliability of the lily leaf seal 20 can be ensured.
