Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of siphon type rainwater buckets, in particular to a siphon type rainwater bucket with automatic vortex elimination, high efficiency and stable water flow. Background Art
[0002] A rain gutter is a branch of the metal gutter system, used to collect and direct rainwater from the roof into the stormwater pipe. As a key component of the metal gutter system, the rain gutter performs a crucial role. It not only effectively manages a building's drainage system but also impacts its aesthetics and practicality. The rain gutter consists of a rectifier grille and a gutter body. The rectifier grille helps smooth water flow, reducing vortexes and aeration, thereby accelerating rainwater discharge and preventing large debris from entering the drainage system and causing blockages. This design ensures that rainwater drains quickly and efficiently from the roof, protecting the building from flooding.
[0003] Among them, the siphonic rainwater gutter is a drainage system that uses the siphon principle to discharge rainwater from roofs. Its unique internal structural design achieves air-water separation, allowing rainwater to form a full flow state within the pipe, and then uses the siphon phenomenon to efficiently drain water. It is particularly suitable for rainwater drainage from large buildings and roofs. The siphonic rainwater gutter uses the siphon principle to quickly and effectively discharge large amounts of rainwater, preventing rainwater from accumulating on the roof. Its internal air-water separation design ensures that rainwater forms a full flow within the pipe, reducing air ingress and improving drainage efficiency. Due to its efficient drainage, it can reduce the time rainwater stays on the roof, thereby reducing the structural burden on the roof. The pipes of the siphonic rainwater gutter can be flexibly arranged, helping to save design and construction space.
[0004] However, common siphonic rainwater hoppers are restricted by the height of the water inlet and the blades. When rainwater passes through, large vortices are often generated, resulting in poor air-water separation and poor stability. These problems affect the drainage effect. In view of this, the present application proposes a siphonic rainwater hopper with automatic vortex elimination, high efficiency and stable water flow. Utility Model Content
[0005] In response to the shortcomings of the existing technology, the utility model provides a siphon rainwater bucket with automatic vortex elimination, high efficiency and stable water flow, which has the advantages of improving the vortex elimination effect, and solves the problem that the common siphon rainwater bucket is restricted by the height of the water inlet and the blades. When rainwater passes through, large vortices are often generated, resulting in poor air-water separation effect and poor stability, which affect the drainage effect.
[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a siphon-type rainwater bucket with automatic vortex elimination and high efficiency and stable water flow, comprising a rectifying device, a water flow stabilizing device for improving the vortex elimination effect being fixedly installed on the top of the rectifying device;
[0007] The water flow stabilizing device includes two mounting outer rings, the inner side walls of the two mounting outer rings are fixedly mounted with mounting plates, the side of the mounting plate away from the mounting outer rings is fixedly mounted with streamlined blades, and the side of the streamlined blades away from the mounting plate is fixedly mounted with two mounting inner rings.
[0008] Furthermore, the straightening device is located on a side of the mounting plate away from the mounting outer ring, and the straightening device is located at the bottom of the streamlined blade.
[0009] Furthermore, the number of the streamlined blades is eight, and the eight streamlined blades are evenly distributed between the mounting outer ring and the mounting inner ring, and the concave directions of the eight streamlined blades face counterclockwise.
[0010] Furthermore, a bucket is provided at the bottom of the rectifier, and a water outlet pipe is fixedly installed at the bottom of the bucket.
[0011] Furthermore, a mounting flange is fixedly mounted on the surface of the rectifier close to the bottom, and a fixing flange matching the mounting flange is fixedly mounted on the surface of the bucket close to the top.
[0012] Furthermore, mounting holes are provided on the tops of the mounting flange and the fixing flange, and the mounting flange and the fixing flange are fixedly connected by fixing bolts and nuts.
[0013] Furthermore, the fixing bolts and nuts are located in the gap between two adjacent mounting plates, the interior of the rectifying device is fixedly mounted with rectifying blades, and the surface of the rectifying device is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting plate.
[0014] Compared with the existing technology, the utility model provides a siphon-type rainwater bucket with automatic vortex elimination, high efficiency and stable water flow, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] This siphonic rainwater bucket, which automatically eliminates vortices and efficiently stabilizes water flow, is equipped with a water flow stabilizing device on the top of the rectifier. Based on the characteristic that water flow in the northern hemisphere easily forms counterclockwise water vortices, eight streamlined blades with concave shapes facing counterclockwise are arranged between the outer ring and the inner ring. This effectively and automatically eliminates vortices and efficiently stabilizes water flow. Compared with the original ordinary siphonic rainwater bucket, the effect of eliminating vortices is greatly improved, and the problem that the common siphonic rainwater bucket is restricted by the height of the water inlet and the blades, and that large vortices are often generated when rainwater passes through, resulting in poor air-water separation effect and poor stability, which affect the drainage effect.

A bucket body 3 is provided at the bottom of the rectifying device 1, and a water outlet pipe 4 is fixedly mounted at the bottom of the bucket body 3.
[0023] The water flow stabilizing device 2 includes two outer mounting rings 21, with mounting plates 22 fixedly mounted on the inner sidewalls of the two outer mounting rings 21. Streamlined blades 23 are fixedly mounted on the side of the mounting plates 22 away from the outer mounting rings 21. Two inner mounting rings 24 are fixedly mounted on the side of the streamlined blades 23 away from the mounting plates 22. By installing the water flow stabilizing device 2 on top of the rectifier device 1 of the siphonic rainwater bucket, the streamlined blades 23 in the water flow stabilizing device 2 automatically eliminate vortices, efficiently stabilize the water flow, and improve the vortex elimination effect, reducing the phenomenon of air caused by vortices entering the siphonic rainwater bucket.
[0024] Meanwhile, the straightening device 1 is located on a side of the mounting plate 22 away from the mounting outer ring 21 , and the straightening device 1 is located at the bottom of the streamlined blade 23 .
[0025] There are eight streamlined blades 23, evenly distributed between the outer mounting ring 21 and the inner mounting ring 24. The concave openings of the eight streamlined blades 23 face counterclockwise. The streamlined blades 23 are structurally designed based on the characteristics of fluid mechanics. The arrangement of the streamlined blades 23 is based on the fact that water currents in the Northern Hemisphere tend to form counterclockwise vortices. The streamlined blades 23 are arranged with their concave openings facing counterclockwise.
[0026] It should be noted that the streamlined blades 23 are made of plastic-coated steel plate, galvanized steel plate, stainless steel plate, aluminum plate, alloy plate or other plate, and are formed by cutting, stamping, bending and other processing. Their dimensions match the rectifier 1 and the bucket 3.
[0027] At the same time, a mounting flange 5 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the rectifier 1 near the bottom, and a fixing flange 6 that matches the mounting flange 5 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the bucket body 3 near the top.
[0028] The tops of the mounting flange 5 and the fixing flange 6 are both provided with mounting holes 51 , and the mounting flange 5 and the fixing flange 6 are fixedly connected by fixing bolts and nuts 7 .
