Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of building drainage, and particularly relates to an energy-saving rainwater collection device. Background Art
[0002] Rainwater collection refers to collecting and utilizing the rainfall runoff converged from the roofs of buildings, roads, squares and other hardened surfaces. Through channels such as collection, water conveyance, water purification and storage, the rainwater is accumulated and used to provide rainwater replenishment for greening, landscape water bodies, washing and underground water sources, so as to achieve the purpose of comprehensively utilizing rainwater resources and saving water.
[0003] In the utility model patent with the publication number CN212926252U, a rainwater collection device for building energy conservation is proposed, which includes a storage tank. Four side edges at the top of the storage tank are fixedly connected with rain guiding plates, and solar panels are fixedly embedded in the inner walls of the four rain guiding plates. A lower plate is fixedly connected to the top of the inner wall of the storage tank, and an upper plate is arranged on the top of the lower plate. A plurality of first rain leakage holes are drilled on the upper plate, and a plurality of second rain leakage holes are drilled on the lower plate. A battery box is fixedly installed on the front surface of the storage tank, and the solar panel is electrically connected to a battery fixedly arranged inside the battery box. Bar-shaped grooves are drilled at the tops of the four rain guiding plates. When this case works, after the rainwater is collected by the rain collecting bowl, under the action of gravity, it descends and presses the self-resetting push switch, and then starts the electromagnetic strip electrically connected thereto. Cooperating with the magnetic strip, it adsorbs the displacement of the lower plate, so that the upper plate and the lower plate are aligned, facilitating the rainwater collected above the upper plate to pass through the lower plate, realizing the automatic operation of the lower plate, and converting light energy through the solar panel and inputting it into the battery to ensure the power supply of the device. However, there are many drawbacks in working through multiple groups of electronic devices. On the one hand, it increases the production and later maintenance costs of the device. On the other hand, the device needs to work in the rain, and there may be a situation where water seepage causes the electronic devices to fail. And when the solar panel fails to convert sufficient electric energy, the device cannot work. Content of the Utility Model

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution provided by the utility model is:
[0006] An energy-saving rainwater collection device includes a collection device main body. An upper filter plate is fixedly arranged on the top surface of the collection device main body, and a lower baffle is slidably arranged below the upper filter plate; a first flow hole is arranged on the upper filter plate, and a second flow hole is arranged on the lower baffle; the lower baffle has two states of being pushed out and pushed in. When the lower baffle is in the pushed-out state, the second flow hole is staggered from the first flow hole, and when the lower baffle is in the pushed-in state, the second flow hole is aligned with the first flow hole;
[0007] A deformation pushing mechanism is provided on the side of the main body of the collection device. The deformation pushing mechanism includes a water storage tray, a rotating rod, and a deformable elastic sheet.

[0008] To optimize the above technical solution, the specific measures taken also include:
[0009] A fixed box is provided on the side of the main body of the collection device. The deformable elastic sheet is installed in the fixed box, and the top of the deformable elastic sheet is limited by a fixed connection with the fixed box.
[0010] Furthermore, the main body of the collection device is connected with a limit frame. The lever structure of the rotating rod is arranged on the limit frame, and a bearing seat for the rotating rod to rotate is provided on the limit frame.
[0011] As a preferred solution, a collection cover is connected to the top edge of the main body of the collection device, and the side surface of the collection cover is inclined outward.
[0012] Furthermore, the deformable elastic sheet includes an outer elastic sheet and an inner elastic sheet, and the outer elastic sheet and the inner elastic sheet are connected to each other at the top and bottom respectively.
[0013] Furthermore, side sliding seats are fixedly connected to both sides of the lower baffle. A plurality of rolling balls are respectively rotatably connected to the sides of the two side sliding seats, and side sliding grooves adapted to the side sliding seats with rolling balls are opened on the inner side of the main body of the collection device.
[0014] Furthermore, the length of the rotating rod on the side of the water storage tray is greater than the length of the rotating rod on the side of the deformable elastic sheet.

[0016] Furthermore, a drain pipe is fixedly communicated with the bottom of the main body of the collection device, and a valve is fixedly connected to the outer side of the drain pipe.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are:
[0018] When it rains, the water storage tray of the utility model collects rainwater and moves downward, causing the deformation driving mechanism to deform through the lever principle, pushing the connecting frame and the lower baffle to slide inward and align with the flow holes of the upper filter plate, so that rainwater can enter the main body of the collection device to form a storage; after the rain stops, the water in the water storage tray gradually evaporates, the water storage tray moves upward, the deformation of the deformable elastic sheet in the deformation driving mechanism is restored, and the lower baffle retreats, so that the flow holes are staggered to avoid the evaporation of rainwater collected in the main body of the collection device. The energy-saving rainwater collection device of the utility model is provided with a limit frame, a rotating rod and a deformable elastic sheet, so that the device can adjust the position of the lower baffle without the cooperation of electronic devices, reducing the production and later maintenance costs of the device, and there is no need to worry about the device failing to work due to water seepage, thereby improving the practical value of the device, energy saving, safety, and easy maintenance, and more suitable for popularization and use.
[0019] In order to make the mechanical device designed by the utility model better meet the needs of actual use, the utility model converts the displacement of the lower baffle from sliding friction to rolling friction by setting a side sliding seat and a ball, thereby reducing the force required to drive the lower baffle to move, and making the displacement of the side sliding seat smoother; by designing that the length of the rotating rod on one side of the water storage tray is much longer than the length on one side of the fixed rod, the water storage tray can more conveniently push the deformable spring sheet to deform, so that the device can work smoothly. Therefore, the operability and convenience of the device of the utility model replacing the device using electronic devices are greatly improved. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0025] The above content of the present utility model will be further described in detail below in the form of embodiments. However, it should not be understood that the scope of the above subject matter of the present utility model is limited to the following embodiments. Any technology implemented based on the above content of the present utility model belongs to the scope of the present utility model.
[0026] The present utility model provides an energy-saving rainwater collection device, including a collection device main body 1. A top filter plate 3 is fixedly provided on the top surface of the collection device main body 1, and a lower baffle 6 is slidably provided below the top filter plate 3. A deformation pushing mechanism is set on the side surface of the collection device main body 1. The deformation pushing mechanism includes a water storage tray 14, a rotating rod 13, and a deformable elastic sheet 5. The rotating rod 13 is connected to the water storage tray 14 and the deformable elastic sheet at both ends in a lever structure. A connecting frame 9 is fixedly provided on one side of the lower baffle 6 close to the deformable elastic sheet 5. The top of the deformable elastic sheet 5 is limited, and the side surface is fixedly connected to the connecting frame 9. The connecting frame 9 can drive the lower baffle 6 to move into the collection device main body 1 under the deformation pushing action of the deformation pushing mechanism, forming a pushed-in state. The connecting frame 9 can drive the lower baffle 6 to move away from the collection device main body 1 under the deformation restoration action of the deformation pushing mechanism, forming a pushed-out state.
[0027] A fixed box 4 is provided on the side surface of the collection device main body 1. The deformable elastic sheet 5 is installed in the fixed box 4, and the top of the deformable elastic sheet is limited by the fixed connection with the fixed box 4. The collection device main body 1 is connected with a limiting frame 12. The lever structure of the rotating rod 13 is arranged on the limiting frame 12, and a bearing seat for the rotating rod 13 to rotate is provided on the limiting frame 12.
[0028] The following will be further described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. As Figure 1 shown, it includes a collection device main body 1. A collection cover 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the collection device main body 1. A top filter plate 3 is fixedly connected to the top end of the collection device main body 1. A lower baffle 6 is slidably connected inside the collection device main body 1 below the top filter plate 3.
[0029] As Figure 3 shown, the top filter plate 3 is provided with a first flow hole 15, and the lower baffle 6 is provided with a second flow hole 16. The lower baffle has two states: pushed-out and pushed-in. When the lower baffle 6 is in the pushed-out state, the second flow hole 16 is offset from the first flow hole 15. When the lower baffle 6 is in the pushed-in state, the second flow hole 16 is aligned with the first flow hole 15. Both sides of the lower baffle 6 are fixedly connected with side sliding seats 7. A plurality of balls 8 are rotatably connected inside the ends of the two side sliding seats 7 away from each other. Side sliding grooves adapted to the side sliding seats 7 are opened inside the collection device main body 1, and the balls 8 are in rolling contact with the inner side of the corresponding side sliding grooves.
[0030] One side of the main body 1 of the collection device is fixedly connected with a fixed box 4. One side of the lower baffle 6 close to the fixed box 4 is fixedly connected with a connecting frame 9. One side of the connecting frame 9 far from the lower baffle 6 is fixedly connected with a connecting rod 10. One side of the connecting frame 9 far from the lower baffle 6 penetrates out of the interior of the main body 1 of the collection device and is slidably connected to the interior of the fixed box 4.
[0031] As Figure 2 shown, one side of the main body 1 of the collection device close to the fixed box 4 is fixedly connected with a limiting frame 12. The inner side of the limiting frame 12 is rotatably connected with a rotating rod 13. One end of the rotating rod 13 close to the main body 1 of the collection device is rotatably connected to the top of the fixed rod 11. The top of the end of the rotating rod 13 far from the main body 1 of the collection device is fixedly connected with a water storage tray 14.
[0032] When it rains, rainwater enters the collection cover 2 and the water storage tray 14. The water storage tray 14 collects the rainwater, moves downward under the force, and pushes the rotating rod 13 to rotate under the support of the limiting frame 12, and pushes the fixed rod 11 to move upward, squeezing the deformable elastic sheet 5.
[0033] A bearing seat for the rotating rod 13 to rotate is designed inside the limiting frame 12, ensuring that the rotating rod 13 can rotate smoothly and smoothly. This not only enhances the structural stability but also maximizes the efficiency of mechanical transmission. Through the cooperation of the water storage tray 14 and the rotating rod 13, the gravity of the rainwater is utilized as the driving force, and mechanical transmission can be achieved without any external energy. Both the outer elastic sheet 502 and the inner elastic sheet 503 have a certain elasticity and will deform to both sides when being squeezed, and are transmitted to the lower baffle 6 through the connecting rod 10, pushing the lower baffle 6 to move downward along the side chute inside the main body 1 of the collection device, enabling the device to adjust the lower baffle 6 relying on mechanical transmission and the gravity of water. This not only simplifies the structure of the device, reduces the production cost, but also greatly improves the reliability and durability of the device. Even under harsh weather conditions or during long-term use, the device can maintain stable performance without worrying about water seepage causing the device to malfunction.
[0034] The bottom end of the side of the main body 1 of the collection device far from the fixed box 4 is fixedly communicated with a drain pipe, and a valve is fixedly connected to the outer side of the drain pipe.
[0035] The deformable elastic sheet 5 is used to drive the lower baffle 6, and the deformable elastic sheet 5 is connected to the fixed box 4.
[0036] As Figure 4As shown in the figure, the deformable elastic sheet 5 includes a connecting block 501 fixedly connected to the top of the inner cavity of the fixed box 4. The bottom of the connecting block 501 is fixedly connected with an outer elastic sheet 502. Both ends of the inner side of the outer elastic sheet 502 are fixedly connected with inner elastic sheets 503. The bottom of the outer elastic sheet 502 is fixedly connected with a bottom fixing block 504. One side of the outer elastic sheet 502 close to the collection device main body 1 is fixedly connected with a side fixing block 505. The side of the side fixing block 505 away from the outer elastic sheet 502 is fixedly connected with the connecting rod 10. The bottom of the bottom fixing block 504 is fixedly connected with a fixing rod 11.
[0037] After the deformable elastic sheet 5 is squeezed, the outer elastic sheet 502 and the inner elastic sheets 503 deform to both sides. Then, the connecting rod 10 is pushed through the side fixing block 505, so that the connecting frame 9 and the lower baffle 6 are displaced. The rolling balls 8 on both sides roll inside the side chute, making the second flow hole 16 of the lower baffle 6 and the first flow hole 15 of the upper filter plate 3 aligned. Then, the rainwater above the upper filter plate 3 passes through the filtration of the filter screen and enters the inside of the collection device main body 1 to complete the collection. When there is no rainwater outside, the rainwater in the water storage tray 14 evaporates in advance because of its small quantity. Then, the water storage tray 14 is no longer stressed and returns to its original position upward. As a result, the deformable elastic sheet 5 returns to its original shape, pulling the lower baffle 6 to block the upper filter plate 3 and preventing the rainwater inside the collection device main body 1 from volatilizing.
[0038] Through the design of the rolling balls 8, the transformation from traditional sliding friction to rolling friction is realized. This transformation greatly reduces the friction force that needs to be overcome during the movement of the lower baffle 6, making the displacement of the lower baffle 6 easier and smoother. It not only reduces wear but also improves the efficiency of mechanical transmission, ensuring the stability and reliability of the device during long-term operation. The length of the rotating rod 13 on the side of the water storage tray 14 is much longer than the length of the fixing rod 11 on one side. This asymmetric design cleverly utilizes the lever principle. The water storage tray 14 will apply a larger torque through the longer end of the rotating rod 13, making the rotating rod 13 easier to rotate. It not only reduces the demand for driving force but also makes the entire transmission process more efficient and labor-saving.
[0039] The usage method of the present utility model is described as follows in combination with the above specific structure:
[0040] When it rains, rainwater enters the collection cover 2 and the water storage tray 14. The water storage tray 14 collects the rainwater, moves downward under the force, and pushes the rotating rod 13 to rotate under the support of the limit frame 12, and pushes the fixed rod 11 to move upward, squeezing the deformable elastic sheet 5. After the deformable elastic sheet 5 is squeezed, the outer elastic sheet 502 and the inner elastic sheet 503 deform to both sides, and then push the connecting rod 10 through the side fixing block 505, so that the connecting frame 9 and the lower baffle 6 are displaced. The rolling balls 8 on both sides roll inside the side chute, aligning the flow holes inside the lower baffle 6 and the upper filter plate 3. Then, the rainwater above the upper filter plate 3 passes through the filtration of the filter screen and enters the inside of the collection device main body 1 to complete the collection; when there is no rainwater outside, the rainwater inside the water storage tray 14 evaporates in advance due to the small amount, and then the water storage tray 14 is no longer stressed and returns to its original position upward, causing the deformable elastic sheet 5 to return to its original shape, pulling the lower baffle 6 to block the upper filter plate 3 and preventing the rainwater inside the collection device main body 1 from volatilizing.
[0041] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and do not impose any form of limitation on the present invention. Any person skilled in the art, without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the present invention, based on the technical essence of the present invention, any simple modification, equivalent replacement and improvement made to the above embodiments, etc., still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
