Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of engineering construction, and particularly relates to an artificial beach. Background Art

[0002] With the development of coastal landscapes, more and more artificial beaches have emerged. However, most of the artificial beaches have a single design structure and are formed by piling sand in a single overall gentle slope manner. Such beaches have relatively single functions. When the tide level is high, most of the beach area is flooded, the sand loss rate is also relatively high, and with the movement of seawater, the silt in the sea is easily brought to the beach, affecting the beach quality and landscape. Content of the Utility Model

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an artificial beach, which is divided into zones with clear functions, can intercept sand loss, and prevent the pollution of the beach by silt from the sea area.

[0004] The utility model is realized through the following technical solutions:

[0005] An artificial beach includes a high-water beach area, a hydrophilic beach area, a sand interception area, and a silt interception area arranged in sequence. A first retaining wall is provided between the high-water beach area and the hydrophilic beach area. Second and third retaining walls are respectively provided on both sides of the sand interception area, and a fourth retaining wall is provided on the side of the silt interception area away from the sand interception area. The second, third, and fourth retaining walls are arranged in the water body.

[0006] Further, a first anti-seepage layer, a horizontal drainage layer, a backfill soil layer, and a first sea sand layer are sequentially provided in the high-water beach area from bottom to top. A plurality of vertical drainage structures connected to the horizontal drainage layer and the first sea sand layer are provided in the backfill soil layer.

[0007] Further, a second anti-seepage layer and a second sea sand layer are sequentially provided in the hydrophilic beach area from bottom to top.

[0008] Further, trees are planted on the first sea sand layer.

[0009] Further, the first anti-seepage layer and the second anti-seepage layer are geotextile layers.

[0010] Further, the first retaining wall includes a rubble cushion layer, a mixed filter layer provided on the top of the rubble cushion layer, and a retaining wall body inserted in the mixed filter layer and connected to the rubble cushion layer. The structures of the second, third, and fourth retaining walls are the same as that of the first retaining wall.

[0011] Further, a warning float is also included, and the warning float is located above the second retaining wall and arranged on the water body.

[0012] Furthermore, a number of steps are provided on the side of the first retaining wall facing the hydrophilic beach area.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: The areas are partitioned with clear functions. The high-water beach area can provide a rest place for tourists, and the hydrophilic beach area can provide a water-playing place for tourists. Moreover, the high-water beach area is not affected by tides, which can effectively ensure the dew area of the beach. At the same time, since there is no sand loss, the later maintenance workload is small; the sand interception area is arranged outside the hydrophilic beach area, and the sand flowing from the beach to the sea will first precipitate in the sand interception area, thereby intercepting the sand loss; the silt interception area is arranged at the outermost side of the beach, and the silt flowing from the sea area to the beach is intercepted and precipitated in the silt interception area, thereby preventing the pollution of the beach by the sea silt.

[0024] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 , Figure 1 which is a schematic structural diagram of the artificial beach of the present utility model, Figure 2 which is a partially enlarged schematic diagram of the artificial beach of the present utility model, Figure 3This is a partial top view of the artificial beach of the present utility model. An artificial beach includes a high-water beach area 1, a hydrophilic beach area 2, a sand interception area 3, and a silt interception area 4 arranged in sequence. A first retaining wall 5 is provided between the high-water beach area 1 and the hydrophilic beach area 2. Second retaining walls 6 and third retaining walls 7 are respectively provided on both sides of the sand interception area 3. A fourth retaining wall 8 is provided on the side of the silt interception area 4 away from the sand interception area 3. The second retaining walls 6, third retaining walls 7, and fourth retaining walls 8 are arranged in the water body.

[0025] The high-water beach area 1, as the area of the artificial beach farthest from the sea, can provide a rest place for tourists. A first retaining wall 5 is provided on the side of the high-water beach area 1 close to the sea. Since the elevation of the first retaining wall 5 is higher than the designed high water level of the sea area, it can ensure that the high-water beach area 1 is not flooded by seawater all year round, effectively ensuring the dew area of the beach. And because there is no sand loss in the high-water beach area 1, the later maintenance workload is small. In an embodiment, a first anti-seepage layer 11, a horizontal drainage layer 12, a backfill soil layer 13, and a first sea sand layer 14 are successively provided in the high-water beach area 1 from bottom to top. A plurality of vertical drainage structures 15 connected to the horizontal drainage layer 12 and the first sea sand layer 14 are provided in the backfill soil layer 13. The first anti-seepage layer 11 isolates the original mud surface and prevents bottom sludge from invading the horizontal drainage layer 12. The horizontal drainage layer 12 and the vertical drainage structures 15 can drain the rainwater in the high-water beach area 1. The materials of the horizontal drainage layer 12 and the vertical drainage structures 15 are medium coarse sand. The spacing of the vertical drainage structures 15 is determined according to the maximum local rainfall intensity. Further, the vertical drainage structure 15 is a vertical drainage well composed of medium coarse sand.

[0026] In an embodiment, trees 16 are planted on the first sea sand layer 14. Trees 16 are evenly planted on the first sea sand layer 14, providing shade and cooling conditions for tourists, and at the same time being able to play the role of wind prevention and sand fixation. The trees 16 can be selected from local coastal trees 16.

[0027] The elevation of the hydrophilic beach area 2 is between the designed low water level and the designed high water level of the sea area, and part of the beach is kept flooded by the sea area all year round. The hydrophilic beach area 2 can provide places for tourists to play with water, surf, and swim. In an embodiment, a second anti-seepage layer 21 and a second sea sand layer 22 are successively provided in the hydrophilic beach area 2 from bottom to top. The second anti-seepage layer 21 isolates the original mud surface and prevents seabed sludge from invading the second sea sand layer 22 and affecting the quality of sea sand.

[0028] The sand interception area 3 is located on the side of the hydrophilic beach area 2 close to the sea and is arranged in the water body. The cavity structure formed by the second retaining walls 6 and the third retaining walls 7 in the sand interception area 3 serves as a sand interception pool. The sea sand lost from the beach to the sea will first precipitate in the sand interception pool. When the sand in the sand interception pool reaches a certain amount, a sand pumping pump can be used to pump the sea sand in the sand interception pool onto the hydrophilic beach area 2 for sand replenishment, thereby truly reducing the loss of beach sea sand.

[0029] In one embodiment, the first anti-seepage layer 11 and the second anti-seepage layer 21 are geotextile layers. The geotextile layer has a significant effect on fixing the sand layer and preventing sand loss.

[0030] For the convenience of tourists to travel between the high-water beach area 1 and the hydrophilic beach area 2, in one embodiment, a number of steps 10 are provided on one side of the first retaining wall 5 facing the hydrophilic beach area 2.

[0031] The silt interception area 4 is located on the side of the sand interception area 3 close to the sea area and is arranged in the water body. The cavity structure formed by the third retaining wall 7 and the fourth retaining wall 8 in the silt interception area 4 serves as a silt interception pond. The silt interception pond first intercepts and precipitates the silt washed towards the beach in the sea area, and regularly cleans the silt in the silt interception pond, thereby preventing the pollution of the beach by the sea silt, ensuring the cleanliness of the entire beach, and improving the quality of the beach.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 , which is a schematic structural diagram of the first retaining wall in the artificial beach of the present utility model. In one embodiment, the first retaining wall 5 includes a rubble cushion layer 51, a mixed filter layer 52 arranged on the top of the rubble cushion layer 51, and a retaining wall body 53 inserted in the mixed filter layer 52 and connected to the rubble cushion layer 51. The structures of the second retaining wall 6, the third retaining wall 7, and the fourth retaining wall 8 are the same as those of the first retaining wall 5. The retaining wall body 53 can adopt a concrete structure, and the rubble cushion layer 51 is used as the foundation below the retaining wall body 53.

[0033] In one embodiment, the artificial beach of the present utility model further includes a warning buoy 9, and the warning buoy 9 is located above the second retaining wall 6 and is arranged on the water body. The warning buoy 9 is also arranged on the outermost sea surface of the hydrophilic beach area 2 to prevent and warn tourists from playing in the outer deep water sand interception area 3 and silt interception area 4, avoiding drowning accidents.

[0034] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, and does not impose any form of limitation on the present utility model. Therefore, any simple modification, equivalent change, and modification made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the content of the technical solution of the present utility model still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
