Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of control devices, and in particular to a control component and a rainwater recycling system. Background Art

[0002] Some buildings are equipped with hanging gardens to enhance the beauty and livability of the buildings. When irrigating the hanging gardens, the irrigation water is often reused by recycling rainwater resources or supplemented by irrigation according to demand.

[0003] When the existing control components collect rainwater and send it into the water storage device, the connection between the water storage device and the drainage channel is often located on the side wall of the drainage channel. Therefore, when the rainwater enters the water storage device through the drainage channel, the amount of rainwater that can enter the water storage device for secondary utilization is limited, and the rainwater resources that can be recycled are relatively small. Utility Model Content

[0004] The present invention is made to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. One of its purposes is to provide a control component that can adjust the amount of water entering the water storage device to avoid the loss of recyclable rainwater and waste of water resources.

[0005] Another object of the present invention is to provide a rainwater recycling system that can recycle rainwater in a timely manner through a control device and other equipment and reuse it, thereby avoiding waste of water resources.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a control assembly comprising: a valve plate rotatably disposed within the connecting pipe, which closes the connecting pipe at a first angle and, when rotated to a predetermined angle, extends a predetermined length of the valve plate into the drainage channel to form a water guide structure; and an operating lever disposed outside the connecting pipe and interlocked with the valve plate.

[0007] Preferably, the rotation angle range of the valve plate is 0-90 degrees.

[0008] Preferably, a water stop valve is further included, which is arranged in the connecting pipe and located between the valve plate and the water storage device.

[0009] Preferably, a connecting piece is further included, which is sleeved in the drainage channel and is integrally formed with the connecting pipe.

[0010] Preferably, the length of the valve plate is greater than or equal to the width of the connecting pipe.

[0011] The utility model provides a rainwater recycling system, comprising any of the aforementioned control components and a rainwater collection device, including a water collection pipe disposed on a roof of a building, a drainage channel connected at its upper end to the water collection pipe, and a water storage device connected to a side wall of the drainage channel via the connecting pipe.

[0012] Preferably, a plurality of the water storage devices are provided, and the control component is provided between each of the water storage devices and the drainage channel.

[0013] Preferably, it further comprises an irrigation channel connected to the water storage device, and a boosting device is provided at the connection between the irrigation channel and the water storage device.

[0014] Preferably, the water storage device further comprises a disinfection device evenly distributed in the water storage device and a control device connected to the disinfection device and the boosting device.

[0015] Preferably, the water storage device is also provided with a sewage outlet.

[0016] According to the above description and practice, the control component described in the present invention is installed in the connecting pipe between the drainage channel and the water storage device, and includes a valve plate. The valve plate is rotatably arranged in the connecting pipe. When the valve plate is at a first angle, the connecting pipe is closed to prevent rainwater from entering the water storage device. When the preset angle is rotated, the valve plate of a preset length extends into the drainage channel to form a water guide structure to guide the rainwater in the drainage channel into the water storage device.

[0020] The exemplary embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the exemplary embodiments can be embodied in many forms and should not be construed as limited to the examples set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete and will fully convey the concepts of the exemplary embodiments to those skilled in the art. The described features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.

[0021] In addition, the accompanying drawings are only schematic illustrations of the present disclosure and are not necessarily drawn to scale. The same reference numerals in the figures represent the same or similar parts, and their repeated description will be omitted. It should be noted that in the present disclosure, the terms "including", "configured with", and "set on" are used to express open-ended inclusion and mean that in addition to the listed elements / components / etc., there may be additional elements / components / etc.; the terms "first", "second", etc. are used only as labels and are not intended to limit the number or order of their objects; the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer", etc. indicate directions or positional relationships based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operate in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0022] Unless otherwise specified or limited, the terms "mounted," "connected," and "connected" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed, removable, or integral connections; mechanical or electrical connections; direct or indirect connections through an intermediary; and internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of these terms in this utility model based on specific circumstances.

[0023] The utility model discloses a control assembly, which is installed in the connecting pipe between the drainage channel and the water storage device, and is used to collect and control the collection of rainwater. Figures 1 to 3 The control component includes: a valve plate 4, which is rotatably arranged in the connecting pipe 31. When the valve plate 4 is at a first angle, it closes the connecting pipe 31 to prevent rainwater from entering the water storage device 3. When the valve plate 4 is rotated to a preset angle, the valve plate 4 of a preset length extends into the drainage channel 2 to form a water guide structure to guide the rainwater in the drainage channel 2 into the water storage device 3. It also includes an operating rod 41, which is arranged outside the connecting pipe 31 and is linked to the valve plate 4 to control the rotation of the valve plate 4 and the rotation angle of the valve plate 4. The valve plate 4 can be rotated to open the connecting pipe 31 or rotated to a corresponding angle to adjust the amount of water entering the connecting pipe 31 according to actual needs, thereby controlling the amount of water entering the water storage device 3 and avoiding the loss of recyclable rainwater, which causes a waste of water resources.

[0024] Understandable, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3The rotation angle range of the valve plate 4 is 0-90 degrees, specifically including 0 degrees, 10 degrees, 30 degrees, 40 degrees, 45 degrees, 60 degrees, 75 degrees, 85 degrees, and 90 degrees. When the valve plate is rotated to a first angle of 0 degrees, the valve plate 4 overlaps with the side wall of the drainage channel 2 and closes the connecting pipe 31. Rainwater will no longer enter the water storage device 3 through the drainage channel 2. When the valve plate is rotated to any angle within the angle range as needed, rainwater in the drainage channel 2 can be diverted, ensuring that rainwater in the drainage channel 2 can stably enter the connecting pipe 31 and then enter the water storage device 3 for storage and use.

[0025] In addition, the amount of rainwater entering the connecting pipe 31 can be adjusted by adjusting the rotation angle of the valve plate 4. The angle of the valve plate 4 can be adjusted in time according to actual needs to facilitate timely acquisition or blocking of rainwater in the drainage channel 2.

[0026] Furthermore, when only the valve plate 4 is used to control the closing of the connecting pipe 31, there are still some problems. On the one hand, when the connecting pipe 31 is closed by the valve plate 4, the seal at the valve plate 4 is not tight, and a certain amount of rainwater will enter the connecting pipe 31, and this rainwater will still enter the water storage device 3; on the other hand, when the amount of rainwater in the drainage channel 2 is large, the valve plate 4 will encounter greater resistance when rotating to close, and it will be more difficult to close it through the operating lever 41. Moreover, when the amount of rainwater is large, since the valve plate 4 cannot be closed in time, a large amount of rainwater will also enter the water storage device 3, causing unnecessary waste. In some embodiments, the rainwater recovery system also includes a water stop valve 42, which is arranged in the connecting pipe 31 and located between the valve plate 4 and the water storage device 3. When the valve plate 4 cannot be closed in time, the connecting pipe 31 can be closed by closing the water stop valve 42, and excess rainwater can be blocked outside the water stop valve 42 and retained between the water stop valve 42 and the valve plate 4. When the water storage device 3 needs to be replenished with water, the water stop valve 42 is opened, and this part of the retained water can still be transferred to the water storage device 3, further avoiding unnecessary waste of water resources.

[0027] In some embodiments, the control assembly also includes an adapter 43, which is installed in the drainage channel 2. Rainwater enters the adapter 43 and enters the connecting pipe 31 through the valve plate 4. The adapter 43 and the connecting pipe 31 are integrally formed to prevent rainwater from leaking from the joint between the connecting pipe 31 and the adapter 43 when entering the water storage device 3 through the drainage channel 2 and the control assembly, thereby affecting the collection of rainwater.

[0028] It can be understood that the length of the valve plate 4 is greater than or equal to the width of the connecting pipe 31. When the connecting pipe 31 needs to be sealed, the operating rod 41 controls the valve plate 4 to close the connecting pipe 31. When the length of the valve plate 4 is longer, it further ensures the degree of sealing of the connecting pipe 31 and the side wall of the drainage channel 2 by the valve plate 4, thereby preventing rainwater from entering the connecting pipe 31 when the valve plate 4 is closed.

[0029] The present invention provides a rainwater recycling system for collecting and processing rainwater for secondary use. The system comprises a rainwater collection device 1, a drainage channel 2, and a water storage device 3. The rainwater collection device 1 comprises a water collection pipe (not shown) located on the roof of a building. The upper end of the drainage channel 2 is connected to the water collection pipe, ensuring that rainwater entering the rainwater collection device 1 can enter the drainage channel 2 through the water collection pipe. The water storage device 3 is connected to the side wall of the drainage channel 2 via a connecting pipe 31 and is used to store rainwater.

[0030] This rainwater recycling system is not only applicable to single-story, low-rise buildings, but also high-rise buildings with multiple sky gardens. In some embodiments, multiple water storage devices 3 are provided, depending on the number of sky gardens or the distribution of vegetation to be irrigated within the building. A valve plate 4 and an operating lever 41 are positioned between each water storage device 3 and the drainage channel 2. By controlling the operating levers 41 in different areas to open the valve plates 4 at different angles, rainwater within the drainage channel 2 can be distributed according to actual needs, allowing for flexible adjustment of the amount of water entering the water storage devices 3 and the speed of water inflow.

[0031] It can be understood that when each water storage device 3 is full of water, each valve plate 4 is closed under the control of the operating rod 41. At this time, the drainage channel 2 serves as an ordinary rainwater pipe to drain the rainwater into the outdoor sponge device.

[0032] Furthermore, when there are few rainy days in the near future and the water level in the water storage device 3 is low, it is necessary to replenish the water storage device 3. In some embodiments, the rainwater recycling system further includes a water replenishment channel (not shown) that connects the water storage device 3 and the water supply system (not shown). When there is little rain, water from the water supply system can be manually introduced into the water storage device 3 through the water replenishment channel to ensure that the water level in the water storage device 3 is sufficient and can be used in a timely manner.

[0033] Furthermore, when multiple water storage devices 3 are provided, a water replenishment branch (not shown) should also be provided to connect the multiple water storage devices 3 and the water replenishment channel to similarly replenish the water storage devices 3. Furthermore, a control valve (not shown) should be provided in the water replenishment branch to open or close the water replenishment branch.

[0034] In some embodiments, the rainwater recycling device further includes an irrigation channel 5 connected to the water storage device 3. This channel is used to process the recycled rainwater for secondary use as irrigation water, thereby reducing the amount of irrigation water required and conserving water resources. Furthermore, a pressurizing device 51 is provided at the connection between the irrigation channel 5 and the water storage device 3. Multiple nozzles 6 are provided on the side of the irrigation channel 5 closest to the vegetation. The treated rainwater is pressurized by the pressurizing device 51 and sprayed from the nozzles 6, ensuring that the water in the water storage device 3 is sprayed evenly and densely.

[0035] Understandably, rainwater used as irrigation water needs to be properly treated before use to ensure water quality and plant health. Figure 3 In some embodiments, the water storage device 3 further includes a disinfection device 31 and a control device 32. The disinfection devices 31 are evenly distributed within the water storage device 3 and disinfect rainwater in various areas within the water storage device 3 to eliminate possible pathogens, such as bacteria, viruses, and parasites. The control device 32 connects the disinfection device 31 and the pressurizing device 51. When rainwater reaches the water storage device 3 from the rainwater collection device 1 via the drainage channel 2, the control device 32 automatically or manually controls the control device 32 to open the disinfection device 31 to disinfect the rainwater within the water storage device 3. When vegetation needs to be irrigated, the rainwater, under the action of the pressurizing device 51, enters the irrigation channel 5 and is sprayed onto the vegetation to be irrigated via the nozzle 6.

[0036] In some embodiments, the pressure-boosting device 51 may be a water pump or a pressure booster, etc., which can increase the water flow pressure to ensure that the water can be effectively delivered to the irrigation area.

[0037] Furthermore, a soil moisture detector (not shown) can be provided in the soil of the vegetation to be irrigated. The soil moisture detector is connected to the control device 32. The sprinkler 6 can be automatically opened and closed according to the value fed back by the soil moisture detector to realize automatic water replenishment irrigation.

[0038] The rainwater recycling system can adopt a dual power supply mode. That is, solar photovoltaic panels and batteries are used for power supply. On sunny days, the solar photovoltaic panels can charge and store the batteries. The batteries can be charged or replaced independently, ensuring that the system can still function on consecutive rainy days.

[0039] In addition, the rainwater in the water storage device 3 that has been filtered by the rainwater collection device 1 often still contains mud or relatively fine debris particles. When the rainwater is stored in the water storage device 3 for a long time, these mud and relatively fine debris particles will settle and remain in the water storage device 3. In order to be able to discharge the sediment from the water storage device 3 in time and avoid the rainwater that enters later from being polluted by the sediment for the second time, in some embodiments, a sewage outlet 33 is provided on the water storage device 3. When it is necessary to discharge the sediment in the water storage device 3, the sewage outlet 33 can be opened to clean the water storage device 3.

[0040] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the present invention can be embodied in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as illustrative and non-restrictive, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims, not the foregoing description, and all variations within the meaning and range of equivalents of the claims are intended to be encompassed within the present invention. Any reference sign in a claim should not be construed as limiting the claim to which it relates.
