[0002] Rainwater refers to the water that falls from the atmosphere to the ground as precipitation. It is part of Earth's water cycle, primarily composed of evaporation, condensation, and precipitation. Rainwater is crucial for maintaining ecological balance, providing agricultural irrigation, and supplying urban water. Proper rainwater management and control has a positive impact on ensuring water security and alleviating the pressure of floods and urban waterlogging. It is a key measure to improve rainwater resource utilization and implement systematic, comprehensive sponge city development.
[0003] Existing roads lack rainwater collection and storage devices. During the rainy season, rainwater from roads and nearby areas flows directly to low-lying farmland and other places, which can easily cause crops to be flooded and increase the pressure on flood control and waterlogging downstream. The direct discharge of this rainwater is a waste. However, during droughts, green belts around roads and daily maintenance must be irrigated with water from the water source, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. In addition, when storing rainwater, rainwater on the road will carry a large amount of impurities such as mud, sand, and fallen leaves into the reservoir during its flow, and accumulate at the bottom of the reservoir. In the long run, this will cause deep silt at the bottom of the reservoir, affecting its capacity, and may cause pipe blockage during subsequent irrigation.

The liquid level display scale 404 also allows for real-time observation of the liquid level inside the water tank body 1. The structure is simple and the operation is convenient.
[0030] Working principle: This water storage device is built according to the mountain terrain. The water collection channel 201 is set next to the road. Water is led to the interior of the water reservoir body 1 through the water collection pipe 202. When this device is built, the shape and number of the water collection channel 201 and the water collection pipe 202 can be adaptively adjusted according to actual conditions. The water reservoir body 1 is built in a lower position, and in order to further ensure the height difference, the water reservoir body 1 can be built underground. A right-angled triangle-shaped reinforcement support plate 3 is provided inside the water reservoir body 1, and the outer wall of the reinforcement support plate 3 is coated with anti-rust paint, which can support the water reservoir body 1 from the inside and relieve the pressure of the external earthwork.
[0031] When it rains, rainwater on the road automatically flows downward into the water collection channel 201 and flows into the water reservoir body 1 through the water collection pipe 202. When flowing through the impurity interception plate 203, two layers of filter plates with different pore sizes are provided on the front and rear sides of the impurity interception plate 203, which can perform double-layer filtration on the rainwater flowing through and intercept some impurities such as mud, sand, fallen leaves, etc. carried therein.

When removing it, they only need to pull the limit latch 208 outward to separate the end of the impurity interception plate 203 from the water collection pipe 202. At this time, the impurity interception plate 203 can be removed upward for cleaning;
[0032] The rainwater is collected by a plurality of water collecting channels 201 and a water collecting pipe 202 and collected in the water reservoir body 1 for storage. When the water in the water reservoir body 1 is full, the excess water will automatically overflow from the overflow pipe 507 at the top thereof.

When irrigating, the irrigation hose can be connected to the end of the outlet pipe 6, and the height difference can be used to guide the water inside the water reservoir body 1 to the nearby green belt for irrigation.
[0033] During construction, the top of the connecting pipe 401 is kept above the ground, and the connecting pipe 401 is in an open state. Due to the setting of the overflow pipe 507, the water tank body 1 is not completely sealed. The connecting pipe 401 and the water tank body 1 can form a communicating vessel.

Then, the height of the liquid level inside the connecting pipe 401 can be obtained through the scale line of the exposed part of the liquid level display scale 404, and then the liquid level height inside the water tank body 1 can be obtained. The liquid level display scale 404 can be made of a lighter material as much as possible.
