[0032] A rainwater harvester is a device used to capture and store rainfall for later recycling. Rainwater harvesting not only conserves water but also reduces the burden on urban drainage systems and reduces flood risks, making it crucial for environmental protection and water resource management.
[0033] To improve collection efficiency, current rainwater harvesting devices typically incorporate an outward-facing guide plate or structure at the top of the device. This increases the diameter of the collection opening and allows for more rainwater to be collected. However, these guide plates and structures typically lack a folding function, limiting their flexibility in varying weather conditions and environments. In strong winds or snowy conditions, the fixed guide plate can become damaged, compromising proper rainwater collection.
[0034] Secondly, to address the potential presence of solid impurities in rainwater, current systems often rely on simple filtration systems. This allows impurities to easily accumulate on the inlet plate during rainfall, leading to blockage. This blockage not only reduces the inflow of rainwater but also potentially affects the overall operational efficiency of the system, increasing the difficulty and cost of maintenance.
[0035] In this regard, the present application proposes a rainwater collection device, which adopts a detachably connected guide plate 320, so that the guide plate 320 can be folded up to avoid damage in severe windy and snowy weather; and the rainwater collection device drives the vibrating screen plate 210 to move back and forth through the vibration mechanism 220, which can cause vibration to loosen the solid impurities on the vibrating screen plate 210 and alleviate the blockage.
[0036] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2The rainwater collecting device in the embodiment of the application comprises a mounting seat 100, a vibrating screen assembly 200 and a guide assembly 300. The mounting seat 100 is the main structure of the rainwater collecting device, which is used to collect and store rainfall and can deliver the collected rainwater to an external water storage device through a drainpipe. The vibrating screen assembly 200 is installed in the mounting seat 100 and is provided with a vibrating screen plate 210 for blocking solid impurities from entering the mounting seat 100. The vibrating screen plate 210 is driven by a vibrating mechanism 220 to reciprocate so as to make the solid impurities loose and relieve the blockage of the solid impurities. The guide assembly 300 is installed on the top of the mounting seat 100 and is used to guide the rainfall to slide into the mounting seat 100, thereby improving the rainwater collecting efficiency.
[0037] Specifically, the inside of the mounting seat 100 is provided with a water storage cabin, which is used to store rainwater and has an opening on the top, through which the rainwater enters.
[0038] Referring to Figure 3 The vibrating screen assembly 200 comprises the vibrating screen plate 210 and the vibrating mechanism 220. The vibrating screen plate 210 is provided with a plurality of openings, through which the rainwater can pass, and the solid impurities are blocked on the top surface of the vibrating screen plate 210 because they cannot pass through the openings. The vibrating screen plate 210 is slidably connected with the mounting seat 100 and covers the top of the water storage cabin, so that the vibrating screen plate 210 can prevent the solid impurities mixed in the rainwater from entering the water storage cabin, while the rainwater can pass through the vibrating screen plate 210 and enter the water storage cabin. The vibrating mechanism 220 drives the vibrating screen plate 210 to reciprocate, so that the solid impurities on the vibrating screen plate 210 are loosened by frequent reciprocation, and thus the rainwater can more easily flow through the gaps between the solid impurities, relieving the blockage.
[0039] Referring to Figure 4 The guide assembly 300 comprises a fixing seat 310 and a plurality of guide plates 320. The fixing seat 310 is installed on the top of the mounting seat 100, and the guide plates 320 are installed on the top of the fixing seat 310 in a circumferential array. The fixing seat 310 serves as a connecting piece for fixing the guide plates 320 on the top of the mounting seat 100, and the guide plates 320 are used to expand outward to guide the rainwater into the water storage cabin of the mounting seat 100. It is worth noting that the guide plates 320 are detachably connected with the fixing seat 310, so that the guide plates 320 can be removed in advance in bad weather such as snowstorm, thereby reducing the damage caused by the bad weather to the rainwater collecting device. The intersection lines or intersection points of the elongated surfaces of the guide plates 320 are located inside the water storage cabin, and the guide plates 320 are in an outwardly expanded posture to make more rainfall enter into the mounting seat 100.
[0040] The detachable connection mode of the guide plate 320 and the fixing seat 310 can adopt plug-in connection, buckle connection, pin connection or bolt connection and the like. It is easy to understand that other possible detachable connection modes can also be adopted, which will not be described here. In this embodiment, the guide plate 320 is fixed with the fixing seat 310 in a plug-in manner. Specifically, the fixing seat 310 is provided with a plug-in groove 311, and the guide plate 320 can be inserted into the plug-in groove 311 to complete the fixing. The plug-in manner can facilitate installation and disassembly as much as possible, thereby facilitating subsequent maintenance.
[0041] It is worth noting that the width of the plug-in groove 311 is greater than the thickness of the guide plate 320, so that there is enough space reserved in the plug-in groove 311, and the guide plate 320 can adjust the inclination angle in the plug-in groove 311, and adjust the outward expansion amplitude of the guide plate 320 according to different occasions, so that the rainwater collecting device is more flexible in use.
[0042] Further, the guide assembly 300 further comprises an abutting member 330. The abutting member 330 is installed in the plug-in groove 311 and abuts with the guide plate 320, for clamping and fixing the guide plate 320, and improving the installation stability of the guide plate 320 in the plug-in groove 311.
[0043] Further, for the mounting seat 100, the mounting seat 100 further comprises a water outlet pipe 110. The water outlet pipe 110 is connected with the water storage cabin, and the water storage cabin is connected with the external water storage equipment through the water outlet pipe 110. The water storage cabin only plays a temporary water storage role, and the rainwater collected in the water storage cabin will be discharged outward through the water outlet pipe 110, so as to avoid that the rainwater collecting device loses the rainwater collecting function due to overfilling of the water storage cabin.
[0044] Further, for the specific connection mode of the vibrating sieve plate 210 and the mounting seat 100, the mounting seat 100 is provided with a sliding groove, and the vibrating sieve plate 210 is arranged in the sliding groove and can slide along the sliding groove. The sliding groove plays a role of limiting the sliding direction of the vibrating sieve plate 210.
[0045] Specifically, for the vibrating mechanism 220, it can adopt a vibrating device with a built-in vibrating motor, or obtain kinetic energy based on a mechanical mechanism capable of reciprocating movement. In this embodiment, the vibrating mechanism 220 includes a motor 221 and a gear 222. The gear 222 is installed on the rotating shaft of the motor 221, and a rack 211 is installed on the vibrating sieve plate 210, and the gear 222 is engaged with the rack 211. Thus, when the motor 221 is started, the rotating shaft thereof rotates to drive the gear 222 to rotate, and the rack 211 engaged therewith moves, and the vibrating sieve plate 210 moves. When the motor 221 is set to periodically change the rotating direction, the vibrating sieve plate 210 is driven to reciprocate, forming an effect similar to vibration. The solid impurities on the vibrating sieve plate 210 are loosened by the reciprocating impact force, and the clogging of the solid impurities on the vibrating sieve plate 210 is alleviated.
[0046] Further, the fixing seat 310 is connected to the mounting seat 100 in a detachable manner, so that during subsequent maintenance, the maintenance personnel can remove the fixing seat 310 from the top of the mounting seat 100, clean the vibrating sieve plate 210 arranged between the fixing seat 310 and the mounting seat 100, and remove the solid impurities accumulated on the vibrating sieve plate 210. At the same time, when the vibrating sieve assembly 200 needs to be repaired or replaced due to failure, the fixing seat 310 can be easily removed for processing.
[0047] Further, in order to better improve the quality of collected rainwater and avoid excessive solid impurities mixed in the rainwater and flowing into the subsequent pipeline system, the rainwater collecting device can also be provided with a corresponding filtering structure. In some embodiments, the rainwater collecting device further includes a first filter plate 400, which is provided with a plurality of openings and is installed in the fixing seat 310, for blocking large-volume solid impurities in the fixing seat 310 so that they cannot enter the guide assembly 300 and the mounting seat 100.
[0048] Further, the rainwater collecting device can also include a second filter plate 500, which is provided with a plurality of openings and is installed between the fixing seat 310 and the mounting seat 100. The second filter plate 500 is used to block small-volume solid impurities, and together with the first filter plate 400, it constitutes a two-stage filter and plays a role in blocking solid impurities together with the vibrating sieve plate 210.
[0049] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail above with reference to the drawings, but the present application is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge of those skilled in the art without departing from the purpose of the present application. In addition, the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.
