Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drainage and seepage structure technology, specifically to a drainage and seepage structure for a football field. Background Technology
[0002] The drainage and permeability structure of a football field is crucial to ensuring the field remains usable even in rainy weather. This structure typically consists of water channels (or pipes), a drainage layer, permeable materials, and artificial turf. The water channels, strategically placed beneath the field, collect and drain accumulated water; the drainage layer, located on top of the artificial turf and substrate, is made of porous materials that quickly absorb and disperse moisture; and the permeable material is used on the surface or underlayer to enhance permeability. This allows the football field to rapidly drain rainwater, preventing water accumulation from affecting the game and providing athletes with a dry and stable playing environment.
[0003] Chinese patent CN219527236U discloses a drainage and seepage structure for an artificial turf soccer field, including a soccer field and a drainage pipe. The soccer field has several drainage channels, the bottoms of which are connected by a connecting drainage ditch. The top of each drainage channel is covered with a filter grid. A drainage pipe is installed within the connecting drainage ditch, and the drainage pipe has evenly spaced water inlets. A small-aperture filter screen is fitted onto the outer wall of the drainage pipe, and a large-aperture filter screen is fitted onto the outer wall of the small-aperture filter screen. A water pump is installed at the right end of the drainage pipe. By using the filter grid, small-aperture filter screen, and large-aperture filter screen, clogging of the drainage pipe can be effectively prevented during long-term use. Because of the evenly spaced water inlets on the drainage pipe, even if some parts of the drainage pipe are blocked by impurities during use, rainwater can still be discharged from the unblocked parts of the drainage pipe.
[0004] The aforementioned patent document describes the installation of multiple sets of filter gratings on the drainage ditch. However, the filter gratings are prone to damage during use due to the movement of athletes. Furthermore, each existing set of filter gratings uses an integral structure, which means that when a part of the grating is damaged, the entire filter grating needs to be replaced, resulting in high maintenance costs. Therefore, a drainage and seepage structure for a football field is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the existing technical problems, this utility model provides a drainage and seepage structure for a football field. The seepage cover assembly is formed by assembling a first cover plate, a second cover plate, and a third cover plate. The seepage cover assembly is then installed on the foundation via a boss. When the seepage cover assembly is damaged, only the corresponding damaged area needs to be replaced, thus solving the problem of high maintenance costs for football fields in the later stages.
[0006] To address the problems of existing technologies, this application provides a drainage and seepage structure for a football field, including a foundation.

[0009] As one technical solution of this application, two water storage tanks for storing accumulated water are symmetrically arranged on the foundation, and several main water diversion channels with a high center and low ends are equidistantly arranged on the foundation. The two ends of the main water diversion channels are respectively connected to the water storage tanks. A secondary water diversion channel with a high center and low ends is also arranged on the foundation, and the two ends of the secondary water diversion channel are respectively connected to the main water diversion channel.
[0010] As a technical solution of this application, the foundation is also provided with a drainage mechanism for draining the water stored inside the water storage tank. The drainage mechanism includes a water pump, the input end of the water pump is equipped with a pumping pipe that can extend into the water storage tank, and the output end of the water pump is provided with a drainage pipe for draining water.
[0011] As one technical solution of this application, a filter layer is laid flat on the foundation to prevent impurities from entering the foundation interior. A sand and gravel layer is laid flat on the filter layer to filter silt and sand from accumulated water. A buffer layer is laid flat on the sand and gravel layer to prevent hard objects or unevenness in the foundation from damaging the turf. Artificial turf is laid flat on the buffer layer.

Detailed Implementation
[0021] To further understand the features, technical means, and specific objectives and functions achieved by this utility model, the following detailed description of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0022] See Figures 1-6 As shown, a drainage and seepage structure for a football field includes a foundation 1. A seepage cover assembly 3, which can prevent the surface of the football field from sinking, is horizontally arranged on the foundation 1. A plurality of protrusions 15, which are equidistantly arranged on the foundation 1 to prevent displacement of the seepage cover assembly 3, are also provided on the foundation 1. The seepage cover assembly 3 includes a first cover 31 that is snapped onto the foundation 1. A second cover 32 that can be spliced with the first cover 31 is provided on the foundation 1. A third cover 33 that can be assembled with the second cover 32 on the side away from the first cover 31 is also provided on the foundation 1.
[0023] By setting several protrusions 15 on the foundation 1, and then snapping the permeable cover plate assembly 3 onto the outside of the foundation 1 through the protrusions 15, displacement of the permeable cover plate assembly 3 is prevented during use. The permeable cover plate assembly 3 supports the surface of the football field, ensuring that the surface of the football field is flat. The permeable cover plate assembly 3 is formed by assembling the first cover plate 31, the second cover plate 32 and the third cover plate 33 together. When the permeable cover plate assembly 3 is partially damaged, only the corresponding damaged area needs to be replaced, which not only reduces the maintenance cost of the football field, but also improves the maintenance efficiency.
[0024] See Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the first cover plate 31 is symmetrically provided with a plurality of first limiting grooves 312 that can be locked onto the boss 15 for limiting, and the two opposite sides of the first cover plate 31 are provided with first locking blocks 311 that can be locked onto the second cover plate 32.
[0025] When replacing the first cover plate 31, a tool is inserted into the through hole provided on the first cover plate 31, and then the first cover plate 31 is pulled vertically upward, so that the first locking block 311 provided on the first cover plate 31 separates from the second cover plate 32, and the first limiting groove 312 provided on the first cover plate 31 separates from the boss 15. When installing the first cover plate 31, the first cover plate 31 is laid flat on the foundation 1, and then the first limiting groove 312 provided on the first cover plate 31 is locked onto the boss 15 to prevent the first cover plate 31 from shifting. Then the first locking block 311 provided on the first cover plate 31 is locked onto the second cover plate 32, so that the first cover plate 31 and the second cover plate 32 are connected, preventing the first cover plate 31 and the second cover plate 32 from separating, thereby completing the disassembly and installation of the first cover plate 31.
[0026] See Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the second cover plate 32 is provided with a second slot 321 for installing the first slot 311. On the side of the second cover plate 32 away from the second slot 321, there are a plurality of second slots 322 that can be locked onto the third cover plate 33. The second cover plate 32 is also provided with a second limiting groove 323 that can be locked onto the boss 15 to prevent displacement. The third cover plate 33 is provided with a third slot 331 for locking the second slots 322.
[0027] When installing the second cover plate 32, first, make the second cover plate 32 horizontal, and then place the second cover plate 32 flat on the foundation 1, so that the second slot 321 provided on the second cover plate 32 can be adapted to the first slot 311. At the same time, the second limiting groove 323 provided on the second cover plate 32 is engaged with the boss 15, so that the second cover plate 32 can not only be combined with the first cover plate 31, but also prevent the second cover plate 32 from shifting. When assembling the third cover plate 33 with the second cover plate 32, make the third cover plate 33 horizontal, and then place the third cover plate 33 flat on the foundation 1. At the same time, the third slot 331 provided on the third cover plate 33 can be adapted to the second slot 322, thereby completing the assembly of the third cover plate 33 with the second cover plate 32.
[0028] See Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, two water storage tanks 11 for storing accumulated water are symmetrically arranged on the foundation 1. Several main water diversion channels 13 with a high center and low ends are equidistantly arranged on the foundation 1. The two ends of the main water diversion channels 13 are connected to the water storage tanks 11 respectively. A secondary water diversion channel 14 with a high center and low ends is also arranged on the foundation 1. The two ends of the secondary water diversion channel 14 are connected to the main water diversion channel 13 respectively.
[0029] When rainwater falls on the surface of the football field, it flows through the through holes provided on the infiltration cover assembly 3 into the main water diversion channel 13 and the secondary water diversion channel 14, and then enters the water storage tank 11 for storage through the main water diversion channel 13 and the secondary water diversion channel 14.
[0030] See Figure 3 As shown, a drainage mechanism 2 for draining the water stored inside the water storage tank 11 is also provided on the foundation 1. The drainage mechanism 2 includes a water pump 21. The input end of the water pump 21 is equipped with a water pumping pipe 22 that can extend into the water storage tank 11. The output end of the water pump 21 is equipped with a drainage pipe 23 for draining water.
[0031] When draining the water inside the foundation 1, the water pump 21 pumps the water out of the water storage tank 11 through the water pumping pipe 22, and then drains the water through the drain pipe 23 set at the output end of the water pump 21.
[0032] See Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a filter layer 4 is laid on the foundation 1 to prevent impurities from entering the foundation 1. A sand and gravel layer 5 is laid on the filter layer 4 to filter mud and sand in the accumulated water. A buffer layer 6 is laid on the sand and gravel layer 5 to prevent hard objects or unevenness of the foundation 1 from damaging the lawn. An artificial lawn 7 is laid on the buffer layer 6.
[0033] When rainwater passes through the artificial turf 7 and the buffer layer 6 into the gravel layer 5, the gravel layer 5 and the filter layer 4 filter the rainwater, thereby filtering the impurities carried in the rainwater and preventing the impurities from entering the foundation 1 and causing the impurities to accumulate inside the foundation 1, which would then lead to poor drainage.
[0034] In operation, this invention involves laying the permeable cover assembly 3 flat on the foundation 1, with the permeable cover assembly 3 secured to the outside of the protrusion 15 on the foundation 1 to prevent displacement. Then, a filter layer 4 and a gravel layer 5 are laid flat on the foundation 1 to prevent impurities from entering. A buffer layer 6 is laid on the filter layer 4 to reduce injuries to athletes during matches. Finally, an artificial turf 7, which maintains the flatness and aesthetics of the field over a long period, is laid on the buffer layer 6. When rainwater falls on the artificial turf 7, it passes through the artificial turf 7 and the buffer layer 6 and enters the filter layer 4 and gravel layer 5 for filtration. The water is then diverted through the main water channel 13 and the secondary water channel 14 on the foundation 1 to the water storage tank 11 for storage. The water is then pumped out of the water storage tank 11 by the pump 21 through the pumping pipe 22 and discharged through the drain pipe 23, thus completing the operation of a drainage and permeable structure for a football field.
[0035] The above embodiments only illustrate one or more implementations of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the appended claims.
